Abnormally cool and wet weather conditions during the summer of 1993 offered an opportunity to evaluate the effects of abnormal weather conditions on mulberry growth and to develop cultivation practicies to reduce leaf yield loss under the similar abnormal weather conditions. Different methods of nutrient supplementation were evaluated in Suwon and Kongju. Nitrogen was supplemented by foliar spray of urea(1.7%) or composite chemical fertilizer Jamsibiryo #8, or by the application of ammonium sulfate(60kg/ha) to the soil. During the period between the late June and the early September which corresponds to the mulberry growing season after summer pruning, mean temperature was 1.4$^{\circ}C$ lower and precipitation 83mm higher than normal year. This weather condition in 1993 caused reduction in leaf yield by 16.4% than common year. Soil nitrogen content decreased due to higher precipitation. Leaf yield loss was reduced by the supplementation of nitrogen to the soil. Leaf nitrogen content increased with the foliar urea spray and nitrogen supplementation to the soil.

In these days abnormal climate occurs frequently because of global warming and earthshock. So it is necessary to prepare for the abnormal conditions like gale, rainfall, heavy snow and high temperature. Fortunately, Korea high speed rail(KTX) have a safety climate detection system for the abnormal weather by using CTC. So the safety is guaranteed in most aspect. But in convention line there isn't any alarm system for the abnormal condition and the train runs until the railroad loss occurred. So convention line need additional regulation same as KTX for the abnormal climate and in the near future passenger safety must be protected by new alarm system.

This study revealed unusual weather phenomena by comparing and analyzing monthly average temperature and amount of snowfall for the past 10 years, and, based on the weather phenomena, analyzed damage cases of concrete structures in winter. As a result, the temperature for the recent one year became greatly low compared with the monthly average for the past 10 years, and the snowfall increased by 4-5 times compared with the past, so that the frost damage of concrete structures also greatly occurred. Accordingly, in case of concrete construction, because there may occur various variables owing to abnormal weather conditions, it is required that thorough quality control should be performed even from the stage of construction plan, execution and maintenance.

In the spring of 2018, opened-flowers of fruit trees were frozen to death due to abnormal low temperature around Jeonbuk Province and southern Gyeonggi Province areas. In the 2000s, abnormal weather is observed all over the world very frequently. As a consequence, various sectors of the society suffer from economic damage and negative effects of the abnormal weather. Moreover, recent global climate change is believed to increase the incidence of extreme weathers, which are out of the normal range of the local climate. It is necessary to identify these abnormal weather phenomena accurately and analyze the effects of them on crops in order to understand the effects of them on crop yields. This study projected the trend of the low-temperature occurrence in the future by predicting the changes in future flowering dates and quantifying the temperature distribution after flowering using climate change scenarios. This study targeted areas actually producing a major portion of pear, peach, and apple in South Korea. The results of this study predicted that the flowering dates of these fruits will be approximately 20 days earlier than the current normal year in the future (2071-2100) for the study area. Moreover, it was found that the distribution of low temperature would vary by fruit type and region to some degree. The results of this study present only a portion of fruit trees cultivars grown in South Korea. It was expected that, when this approach is applied to various crops and fruit trees, it will be possible to contribute to preparing countermeasures for climate change in the agricultural sector.

As abnormal weather conditions escalate, water disasters such as droughts and floods occur more frequently. These natural disasters are fatal to agricultural reservoirs, where the operation techniques vary greatly depending on the season and weather conditions, and response through intake works is limited. In response, governments like the Korea Rural Community Corporation have researched efficient water supply methods through irrigation channels. Therefore, previous studies analyzed the irrigation process using numerical models to determine an efficient irrigation system. However, SWMM and EPANET used in previous studies are limited in quantitative agricultural irrigation process analysis. Therefore, this study developed AIRISS to simulate and analyze agricultural irrigation. Specifically, we simulated the irrigation process in the Ssangbong area of South Korea and simulated the irrigation process to verify the performance of the numerical model. AIRISS, developed in this study, is specialized in simulating the agricultural irrigation process. It can check the supply to each paddy and the condition of each paddy.

The recent unpredictable weather condition, especially abnormal heavy precipitation which is on the verge of PMF, made implement more rigorous design standard. Following these trends, the idea of additional auxiliary spillway, most of them are tunnel around existing one, is adopted to many sites. Tunnel spillway, having free water table is generally consisted of several compartments such as inlet, transition, inclined, curved and stilling parts. It may has some technical problems to be considered. Among them, the surface deterioration due to cavitation is reported many times in the part of irregularities on lining. Including this kind of problem, several technical considerations for tunnel spillway will be handled in this paper during design procedure.

Today, peoples have much interest about safety while an abnormal weather phenomenon is weighted increased. R.C buildings are consisting of main loaded members. Concrete are brittle materials and they are which come to brittle fracture rapidly by progress of cracks. With the exchange of such research in inside and outside of the country, the structure measurement method of having used PZT and the optical fiber (FBG) will be the actual condition which has accomplished the stock. Specially, seismic activity that gives damage to construction and members happens in on time. Therefore, the purpose of this study is the fundamental research which detects damagesof main members using the compound sensor which consisted of the radio sensors of resistance, PZT, and FM system.

Recently, flood damage has been increasing in Korea due to frequent local torrential rains caused by abnormal weather conditions. According to the calculation of the recurrence period of torrential rain that occurred in North Chungcheong Province on July 16, 2017, it was estimated that the rainfall frequency in the upper are of Goessan Dam was around 1,524 years, and the highest level of Goesan Dam rose to EL.137.60 meters, leaving only 5 cm of margin until the height of the dam floor (EL.137.65 meters). The Goesan Dam, which operated for 62 years since 1957, needs to be prepared to cope with the increase of floodgate volume in the basin, the development of a single purpose dam for power generation only, and there are no measurement facilities for flood control, so efficient operation methods are needed to secure the safety of residents in upper and lower regions. In this study, a method of dam operation was proposed by constructing a rain matrix for quick decision making in flood prediction, calculating the highest level of dam for each condition in advance, and preparing a survey table, and quickly finding the level corresponding to the conditions in case of a situation.

How meteorological situations have affected human life for survival have been an important element of living or military strategy throughout history. In modern society, overcrowding of cities has brought about many problems. Moreover, high-rise buildings and land cover have been causing abnormal weather conditions. The wind corridor, especially in urban areas has been flowing differently from the dominant weather condition of the surroundings. Therefore, the wind corridor in urban areas can be a main component in protecting major national facilities in urban areas from damage. Especially the wind corridor is a main factor to derive harm from poisonous substances in air. This paper seeks to find out the wind corridor in urban areas and the efficiency of that. In addition to that, it studies how to use the direction to protect major national facilities and areas from damage. It is considered that this study will be useful to make defence project, not only for preventing CBR(chemical, biological, and radiological) terrorism and violent assembly, but also for evacuation of people in case of big accidents or natural disasters.
