초록

기상과 관련된 재해의 직접 원인이 되는 극한 기후 사상의 발생 빈도 및 강도의 변화 경향을 파악하는 것이 된 연구의 목적이다. 일최저기온, 일최고기온, 일강수량 자료를 이용하여, 10개 기후 변화 지시자를 산출하였다. 그 변화 경향의 공간 분포를 파악하였다. 일최저기온을 이용하여 산출된 온난야의 발생 빈도는 한반도에서 증가하는 추세를 나타냈고. 최저기온의 증가로 인하여 서리일수는 감소하고 생장기간은 증가하였다. 매해의 일최저기온과 일최고기온의 차로 산출되는 연극한기온교차는 최고기온은 변화하지 않았지만. 최저기온의 증가로 인하여 감소하고 있다. 강수와 관련된 지시자들은 기온 관련 지시자에 비하여 변화 경향이 뚜렷하지 않지만, 무강수일수의 한반도 시계열은 감소하는 경향이 나타났고, 호우지수로 분류될 수 있는 강수강도는 증가하고 있다.

The aim of this study is to clarify whether frequency and/or severity of extreme climate events have changed significantly in Korea during recent years. Using the best available daily data, spatial and temporal aspects of ten climate change indicators are investigated on an annual and seasonal basis for the periods of 1954-1999. A systematic increase in the $90^{th}$ percentile of daily minimum temperatures at most of the analyzed areas has been observed. This increase is accompanied by a similar reduction in the number of frost days and a significant lengthening of the thermal growing season. Although the intra-annual extreme temperature range is based on only two observations, it provides a very robust and significant measure of declining extreme temperature variability. The five precipitation-related indicators show no distinct changing patterns for spatial and temporal distribution except for the regional series of maximum consecutive dry days. Interestingly, the regional series of consecutive dry days have increased significantly while the daily rainfall intensity index and the fraction of annual total precipitation due to events exceeding the $95^{th}$ percentile for 1901-1990 normals have insignificantly increased.
