Abstract

Accurate understanding of land surface is essential to analyze energy exchanges between earth surface and atmosphere. For the quantization of energy fluxes, the various researches about Land Surface Model(LSM) have been progressed. Among the various LSMs, the researches using Common Land Model(CLM) and Variable Infiltration Capacity(VIC) model are performed briskly. The CLM which is advanced LSM can calculate realistic results with few user defined parameters. The VIC model which is also typical LSM is widely used for estimation of energy fluxes and runoff in various fields. In this study, the energy fluxes which are net radiation, sensible heat flux, and latent heat flux were estimated using CLM and VIC model at Southern Sierra-Critical Zone Observatory(SS-CZO) site in California, United States. In case of net radiation and sensible heat flux, both models showed good agreement with observations, however, the CLM showed underestimated patterns of net radiation and sensible heat flux during precipitation period. In case of latent heat flux, the CLM represented better estimation of latent heat flux than VIC model which underestimated the latent heat flux. Through the estimation of energy fluxes and analysis of models' pros and cons, the applicability of CLM and VIC models and need of multi-model application were identified.

전 지구 지표 순환 분석을 위하여 지표와 대기 사이의 에너지 교환에 대한 분석이 필수적이다. 이러한 에너지 교환의 정량화를 위하여 다양한 지면 모형에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 다양한 모형들 중 Common Land Model(CLM)과 Variable Infiltration Capacity(VIC) 모형을 활용한 연구가 활발히 수행되고 있다. CLM은 발전된 지면 모형의 형태로 적은 사용자 변수로 현실적인 결과를 산출한다는 장점이 있다. VIC 모형 또한 대표적인 지면 모형 중 하나로 에너지 인자 및 유출량 모의를 위하여 전 세계적으로 다양한 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 미국 캘리포니아 주 SS-CZO 사이트를 대상으로 CLM과 VIC 모형을 활용하여 주요 에너지 인자 인 순복사량, 현열, 잠열을 모의하였다. 순복사량과 현열 모두 두 모형에서 양호한 결과를 보이나, 강우 발생 시 CLM은 잠열과 현열을 과소모의하는 경향을 나타내었다. 잠열은 CLM의 모의 결과가 잠열을 과소모의 한 VIC 모형에 비하여 관측된 잠열의 경향을 더 잘 모의하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 에너지 인자 모의 및 모형의 장단점에 대한 분석을 통하여 CLM과 VIC 모형의 활용가능성 및 다양한 모형 활용의 필요성을 확인하였다.
