충남 천안시에 최근 새로운 변화의 바람이 불고 있다. 친환경적이며 홍수 등 자연 재해에 효과적으로 대응할 수 있는 '분산형 빗물관리 도시조성공사'가 국내 최초로 펼쳐지고 있는 것이다. 일반적으로 도시 및 택지 개발을 하면 자연재해 대응능력이 떨어지는 것으로 알려져 있다. 예를 들어 비가 올 때 콘크리트 등으로 덮인 땅은 빗물이 잘 침투되지 않는다. 때문에 순간적으로 하천으로 많은 양의 물이 흘러서 홍수의 위험이 커진다. 하지만 천안시에서 현재 진행 중인 '분산형 빗물관리 도시조성공사'는 오염원을 처리하는 가운데 빗물의 하천 방류와 땅 속 침투를 개발 전처럼 가능하게 한다. 또 일부는 땅속에 저장시켜 일시적인 수랑 증가로 인한 홍수를 예방한다. 오는 2016년 6월에 이 사업이 완료되면 천안 서북부 일대는 상당한 침수예방 효과를 얻게 된다. 더불어 위생적인 도시환경이 조성되는 것은 물론 주민생활 환경도 크게 개선된다. 실로 재난과 재해에 강한 미래 천안의 모습이 미리 그려지고 있는 것이다. 때문에 이곳 공사를 맡고 있는 태영건설의 자긍심은 남다르다. 모든 현장 임직원들이 빈틈없는 안전관리로 최고의 도시 기반을 만들겠다는 의지를 불태우고 있다. 안전으로 재난에 강한 미래 도시를 만들어가고 있는 이곳 현장을 찾아가 봤다.

In this study, we examined the sea surface temperature (SST), air temperature (AT), and their time lag in response to an extreme cold wave in 2018 and a weak cold wave in 2019, cross-correlating these to the northern wind direction frequency. The data used in this study include SST observations of seven ocean buoys Real-time Information System for Aquaculture Environment provided by the National Institute of Fisheries Science and automatic weather station AT near them recorded every hour; null data was interpolated. A finite impulse response filter was used to identify the appropriate data period. In the extreme cold wave in 2018, the seven locations indicated low SST caused by moving cold air through the northern wind direction. A warm cold wave in 2019, the locations showed that the AT data was similar to the normal AT data, but the SST data did not change notably. During the extreme cold wave of 2018, data showed a high correlation coefficient of about 0.7 and a time lag of about 14 hours between AT and SST; during the weak cold wave of 2019, the correlation coefficient was 0.44-0.67 and time lag about 20 hours between AT and SST. This research will contribute to rapid response to such climate phenomena while minimizing aquaculture damage.

본 연구에서는 태풍 초기화된 수치모델과 AWS (Automatic Weather System) data를 이용하여 제주도를 통과하는 태풍들의 바람 강도 특성을 분석하였다. 태풍이 내습했을 때 제주도 전 지역에서 동시 관측을 하기에는 불가능하다. 따라서 중규모 수치 모델인 Advanced Research WRF v3.0.1을 사용하여 분석하였으며 더욱 정확한 태풍 모의를 위해 Kwon and Cheong (2009)에 의해 개발된 정교한 태풍 초기화 기법을 적용하였다. 태풍 초기화된 자료에 의해 모의된 결과는 The Regional Specialized Meteorological Center (RSMC) Tokyo의 예보 오차와 비교했을 때 더 향상된 결과를 보였으므로 태풍 초기화 기법의 사용은 본 연구에서 하고자하는 태풍들의 바람 강도 분석에 타당하다고 판단하였다. 그리고 모의된 결과는 그에 상응하는 AWS data와의 joint distribution (Moskaitis, 2008) 분석을 통해 비교되었다. 태풍 경로에 따른 제주도 지역의강 풍을 고려하기 위해 각각 제주도의 오른쪽과 왼쪽을 지나가는 2003년 6호 태풍 'SOUDELOR'와 2004년 7호 태풍 'MINDULLE'를 선정하였다. 또한, 모의 결과로부터 제주도 지역에 태풍이 내습했을 때 강풍의 상대적인 크기의 비교를 위해 모의된 태풍의 최대 풍속을 수치 모의로 얻은 10m 바람장의 모든 격자점에 나누어 정규화 하였다. 이를 시간에 대해 평균하여 태풍이 제주도 지역을 통과하는 전체시간에 대한 상대적인 강도 특성을 분석하였다. 수치 모의 결과와 관측 자료와의 joint distribution 분석 결과, 바람의 크기와 경향이 비교적 잘 일치하였다. 강한 풍속과 약한 풍속이 나타나는 지역은 제주도 지역의 주풍향과 지형의 영향에 크게 좌우되었다. 정규화된 바람은 산악의 정상에서 강풍이 관측되고 주 풍향에 대해 풍상측과 풍하측에서 비교적 낮은 풍속이 관측되는 결과를 보였다. 이는 Hoinka (1985)의 산악 위에서의 바람의 특성에 관한 연구에서 얻어진 결과와 유사하다. 서로 다른 경로로 통과하는 두 태풍의 모의 결과에서 제주도의 북서쪽 지역과 남동쪽 지역에서 상대적으로 약한 풍속이 관측되었다. 따라서 해당지역에서는 태풍에 동반되는 강풍의 피해를 적게 입을 것이라는 것을 알 수 있었다.

This paper presents a method to enable a UAV in autonomous flight along a desired path to follow it backwards when a strong headwind prevents the vehicle from proceeding forward. The main purpose of the reverse path following in this study is to return to a mission quickly when the wind becomes weaker. When the nonlinear path following guidance law is used, there are two reference points available in the path following. One of the two points is selected considering a flight direction for calculating a straight-line distance(L) from the vehicle to the point for the path following. An initial heading angle with respect to the wind direction determines whether the reverse path following is feasible or not at the time of the wind is generated. The result of the proposed method based on kinematic model in this study is verified through simulations implemented in Matlab.

A data set of current, wind and wave height measured at the monitoring buoy and sea level at Busan harbor were analyzed to explain the physical conditions during the strong rip current events at Haeundae Beach of Suyeong Bay during 13~15 August 2009. Tidal current, with spring-neap variations, has similar average speed to the short-term non-tidal currents. The common features at the time of rip currents are the strong northeasterly wind and superposition of tidal and non-tidal currents both flowing toward the coast. However on 14 August when the rip current did not occur, tide and wave height were similar to the rip-current cases but the tidal and non-tidal current were to nearly opposite directions. While strong winds produce large waves thus the basic condition for rip current but its influence on the local circulation in the bay is relatively small. Of the three adjacent beaches, only at Haeundae the rip currents are reported. This difference may be due to the unique bottom topography featured by underwater hill in the central region off Haeundae which can decay the incoming waves, tides and currents to intensify the rip current.

This study was conducted to understand the growth characteristics of Picea jezoensis that was one of representative subalpine species in Korea, in the light of the effects of wind and micro-topography in its habitats on Mt. Deogyu, Korea. The prevailing wind directions were southwest and west at the study sites. We randomly selected P. jezoensis (height ≥ 1.5 m) on windward, intermediate, and leeward slopes and measured diameter at breast height (DBH), height, crown length by 8 directions in upper, middle and lower sectors of the crown. We examined the micro-topography of P. jezoensis stood on and classified it into 3 types: type 1 was mounded and fully exposed to surrounding environments without neighboring trees; type 2 was somewhat wind-protected by surrounding rocks, but no neighboring vegetation; type 3 was on gentle slope or flat where P. jezoensis grew with neighboring trees or shrubs. The ratios of height to DBH, and estimated crown growth to actual crown growth (hereafter crown growth ratio) were compared among the three types of micro-topography on windward, intermediate and leeward sites. The height growth per DBH and crown growth ratio in the upper and middle crowns were the smallest on the windward site, and the highest on the leeward site (p < 0.01). The crown growth ratio on type 1 on the windward site was only 46% of that on type 3 on the leeward site. Although on the same windward slope, trees on type 1 had more deformed crown shapes than that on Type 3, showing asymmetric crown cross-sectional areas. Wind and micro-topography played critical roles on the crown growth of P. jezoensis.

Cold water observed at sea surface near the southeastern coast of Korea in summers 1982 and 1983 was studied by using data of hydrography, sea level, wind and satellite image. In summer season when water column shows 3-layered structure a "full" upwelling occurs by southwesterly transient wind continuing for several days. During upwelling event, surface water of high temperature moved offshore, middle water of low temperature outcropped to the sea surface, and sea level was lowered, however, equilibrium depth of surface layer was not changed. It may be concluded that cold water at the surface originates from middle layer and strong surface front is a result of surfacing of seasonal thermocline. In order to see the relationship between position of surface front and wind input, a model of Csanady (1982) was applied in a rigid lid approximation. The results show that frontal position can be determined by wind input and water structure near the southeastern coast of Korea. Cold water in summer can appear at the sea surface only when there is wind larger than a minimum wind impulse of order $10m^2/sec$.

This study analyzed stratification and destratification processes in the Kangjin Bay (KB), South Sea, Korea, driven by the Nam Gang Dam water discharge based on numerical modeling experiments. Model performances were evaluated in terms of skill scores for elevation, velocity, temperature and salinity, with scores mostly exceeding 90%. The models reproduced the tidal current, density-driven and wind-driven current. The stratification by fresh water input and destratification by the wind mixing was assessed in terms of the characteristic Richardson number (Ri) in that Ri increased from 0 to 7~20 during the Dam water discharge period, while vertical mixing and destratification followed by the typhoon passage showed Ri, 0 to 2.

'Yumyeong' peach has desirable characteristics of long shelf-life and specific non-melting nature with long harvesting period. However, some fruits harvested too late tend to show fruit pithiness symptom or internal breakdown. The study was conducted to investigate the differences between fruit flesh pithiness and internal breakdown symptoms, and to find out inducing factors of flesh pithiness in 'Yumyeong' peach. The incidence of flesh pithiness was higher in the fruits harvested late. Sugar and malic acid contents were not different between normal fruits and flesh pithiness fruits, but the acidity was significantly lower affected by low citric acid content in flesh pithiness fruit. In flesh pithiness fruits, calcium contents were low in both skin and flesh. Occurrence of flesh pithiness fruits was high in the years with low precipitation and high temperature for 2 months before harvest. In observations on morphological characteristics, the parts showing flesh pithiness consisted of smaller cells than the normal parts. Tonoplasts were disintegrated and the number of dead cells was high in internal breakdown fruits, while the tonoplasts were intact with contracted vacuoles in flesh pithiness fruits. Tylosises were observed in vascular tissues around the flesh pithiness, therefore, it was assumed that those tylosises restricts flesh tissue development resulting in flesh pithiness. Other varieties such as 'Fantasia' and 'Wolmi' also showed tylosis and smaller cells were observed in the flesh tissue of these cultivars, indicating abnormal growth of the flesh part. These results suggested the possibility of the occurrence of pithiness like symptoms in other peach varieties.

Extensive wind, sea level and sea surface temperature (SST) data collected along the east coast of Korea in 1973-1979 were used to ascribe the variations of sea level and SST associated with wind forcing during summer. Alongshore components of wind were dominant but the offshore components were little significance in the southeast coast in summer. The variations in SST and sea level adjusted barometricallyagreed with the upwelling-downwelling processes and showed a rapid response to wind.Appearance of cold water to the surface in the upwelling region concurred well with te periods of positive y-component wind when the tangential line at Ulgi was takem as the y-axis. In general, SST at Ulgi and Gampo as well as the adjusted sea level at Pohang, Ulsan and Busan decreased significantly when strong winds favorable for upwelling persisted for more then three days whereas they increased during the relaxation or unfavorable periods. The period of an upwelling event, on the average, was about 10 days and the mean speed of alongshore sind was 4.0m/sec.
