Abstract

The spatial rainfall distributions accompanied by the heavy rainfalls in the Korean peninsula were class-sified to 6 typical patterns and synoptic characteristics of each pattern were muined. 274 cases of heavy rainfall events occurred for 10 years from 1981 through 1990 were used for thls study In the 4 types of them, heavy rainfalls are not by the strongly developed but by the rapidly deepening low pressure systems. which have a wall defiried low and high level jets before arrival to the Korean peninsula. In another 2 types, heavy rainfall are due to speciauy developed surface low pressure system. Most of the heavy rain areas are associated with the location of the low level Jets and their direction and with the position of surface warm front. In the 4 types, the heavy rain areas extend In zonal direction. And the latitudinal locations of these areas are associated with the polar low center or strong main trough over 500 hPa level. The more northwestern part of the Asla the low locates the higher latitude in the Korean Peninsula the rainfall concentration occurs at. It is also known that the seasonal drifting of the lows have some relations to the procession of summer monsoon but its characteristics change year by year.

1981년부터 1990년까지 10년간 발생한 274개의 호우사례를 분류하여,한반도에서 호우시에 나타나는 강수량의 공간분포를 여섯 종류로 나누고 각각의 정관적 특성을 분석하였다. 첫때, 강하게 발달한 지표 저기압에 연관되어 발생하는 호우보다 상, 하층 제트를 동반한 채 발달중인 저기압에 연관되어 발생하는 호우가 많다. 둘째, 재부분의 호우역은 하층 제트의 위치와 방향 그리고 지표 온나전선의 위치에 연관되어 있다. 셋째, 500hPa 면의 저기압 중심이나 기압골의 위치가 서쪽으로 멀어질수록 한반도에어 호우는 고위도에서 발생하는 경향이 있다. 넷째, 한반도에 호우를 초래하는 500hPa의 저기압 중심은 하계몬순의 발달을 따라 서쪽으로 자리잡는 경향이 있으나 해마다 차이가 있다.차이가 있다.
