General circulation models (GCMs) are widely used in hydrological prediction, however their coarse grids make them unsuitable for regional analysis, therefore a downscaling method is required to utilize them in hydrological assessment. As one of the downscaling methods, convolutional neural network (CNN)-based downscaling has been proposed in recent years. The aim of this study is to generate the process of dynamic downscaling using CNNs by applying GCM output as input and RCM output as label data output. Prediction accuracy is compared between different input datasets, and model structures. Several input datasets with key atmospheric variables such as precipitation, temperature, and humidity were tested with two different formats; one is two-dimensional data and the other one is three-dimensional data. And in the model structure, the hyperparameters were tested to check the effect on model accuracy. The results of the experiments on the input dataset showed that the accuracy was higher for the input dataset without precipitation than with precipitation. The results of the experiments on the model structure showed that substantially increasing the number of convolutions resulted in higher accuracy, however increasing the size of the receptive field did not necessarily lead to higher accuracy. Though further investigation is required for the application, this paper can contribute to the development of efficient downscaling method with CNNs.

기후변화의 영향으로 국지적 규모의 홍수, 가뭄 등의 피해 규모가 증가하고 있으며, 복사에너지 변화에 기인한 전지구적 대류활동의 변화는 단발성 피해에 확산되어 특정 지역의 기후 패턴 변화로 이어질 수 있다. 대류활동의 변화는 국가별 물순환의 변화로 이어질 수 있으며, 이로 인한 수자원의 변동성은 국가적 수자원 이용에 있어 중요한 요소로 작용될 수 있다. 수자원의 중요성으로 인해 국제적인 기관들은 전지구적 대류활동에 기인한 물순환 과정을 파악하고자 노력하였으며, 그 일환으로 GCMs (Global climate modeling) 등과 같은 모형이 개발되었고, 위성을 통한 전지구 강우량 측정망을 구축하였다. 위성을 통한 전구 강우량 자료와 GCMs에서 산출된 대류과정과 연관된 기후변량 자료들은 빅데이터로 구축되어 제한 없이 제공되고 있다. 정상성 강우 모의 기법은 데이터에 한정된 패턴을 반영하는 모형들로서 기후변화로 인한 기후 변동성 증가를 반영하는데 한계가 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 기상 빅데이터 자료를 기반으로 한반도의 강우량과 기상학적 특성을 연관할 수 있는 머신러닝의 일종인 딥러닝 방법을 접목시킨 강우 모의 기법을 적용하였다. 본 연구의 모형은 기후변화로 인한 기상학적 패턴의 변화를 딥러닝 기법을 통해 식별하고 식별된 기상학적 특성에 기반한 한반도의 강우량을 모의할 수 있다. 본 모형은 단기 및 장기 예측 모형과 결합하여 불확실성을 고려한 단/장기 강우량 평가에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

이 연구는 기후변화 위험에 노출되어 있는 북한에 대한 잠재증발산량의 미래 변화를 전망하였다. 이를 위해 IPCC AR5의 RCP 기후변화 시나리오로부터 모의된 미래 기온자료를 APCC (APEC Climate Center) Integrated Modeling (AIMS)를 사용하여 25개 관측 지점에 대해서 상세화하여, McGuinness-Borne 방법으로 잠재증발산량을 추정하였다. 6개의 성능 지표와 TOPSIS(Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution)로 27개 GCMs 간의 과거 기후 재현성을 비교하여, 관측 지점 규모에서 적정 GCM을 선정하였다. 마지막으로 각 지점에서 선정된 대표 시나리오(representative climate change scenarios, RCCS)로 북한 지역의 잠재증발산량의 미래 변화를 3개의 구간(F1: 2011-2040; F2: 2041-2070; F3: 2071-2100)에서 all CCS(climate change scenario)와 비교하고, 미래 변화를 정량적으로 제시하였다. 그 결과 공간 해상도가 더 높은 GCM이 RCCS로 선정되었으며, 미래로 갈수록 잠재증발산량이 증가하리라 전망되었다. 또한, 여름철 잠재증발산량의 모델 간 변동성은 미래 구간에 따라 점진적으로 증가되었고, 연 평균 증발산량은 과거 기후대비 1.4배(F1), 2.0배(F2) 및 2.6배(F3) 증가하였다.

미래에 대한 기후는 과거와 비교하여 변동성이 더 크고 불확실성 또한 더 크기 때문에 미래의 기후변화를 예측하기 위해서는 기후변화의 절대적인 크기뿐 아니라 불확실한 정도도 함께 고려되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 CMIP6(Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6) DB에서 제공된 일 단위 18개의 GCMs(General Circulation Models)의 결과를 분석하였으며 또한 3개의SSP(Shared Socioeconomic Pathway)시나리오와 3개의 미래 구간에 대하여 100개의 앙상블을 각각 생성하였다. 불확실성을 초래하는 원인을 3가지로 구분하고, 각각의 원인에 대한 불확실성의 정도를 앙상블 시나리오에 반영하고자 한다. 현재 기간 및 미래 기간에 대해 100개의 20년 시계열 날씨변수 앙상블을 생성하여 LSTM(Long short-term memory)의 입력자료로 사용하여 댐유입량, 저수위, 방류량을 산정하였다. 댐 유입량 및 방류량의 예측성능을 향상시키기 위해 Input predictor의 종류를 선정하는 방법과 그 변수들의 lag time을 결정하는 방법, 입력자료들을 재구성하는 방법, 하이퍼 매개변수를 효율적으로 최적화하는 방법, 목적함수 설정 방법들을 제시하여 댐 유입량 및 방류량의 예측을 크게 향상시키고자 하였다. 본 연구에서 예측된 미래의 댐유입량 및 방류량 정보는 홍수 또는 가뭄 등 다양한 수자원 관련 문제의 전략을 수립하는 데 있어서 적절한 도움이 될 것이다.

GCM and scenario uncertainties are first investigated for 5 major watersheds (Han River, Paldang dam, Namhan River, Bukhan River and Imjin River watersheds). As a result of this study, it is found that CCSM3-based annual precipitation increases linearly with respect to the 10-year moving average values while CSIRO-based precipitation does not show much of trend. The results from annual DJF mean precipitation show a similar trend with respect to their 10-year moving average values. Both CCSM3- and CSIRO-based annual JJA mean precipitation do not show much of trend toward 21^st century. In general, CCSM3-based precipitation values are slightly higher than CSIRO-based values with respect to their annual and annual JJA mean precipitation values, but CSIRO-based annual DJF mean precipitation values are slightly higher than CCSM3-based values. In case of mean air temperature between CCSM3 and CSIRO during 21^st century, all of results show a clear trend in warming with the passage of time for 5 watersheds. However the upward trends from CCSM3-based values slow down toward end of 21^stcentury while CSRIO-based values increases almost linearly.

This study investigated the changes in volatile compounds in chicken flesh after boiling at various pHs (6.0-9.0) and after chilling storage (4.0±1.0℃) for 7 d. The volatile compounds were assessed qualitatively and quantitatively by using a headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. Twenty-one volatile compounds were discovered and categorized as amine, aldehyde, alcohol, ketone, acid, and furan. One type of amine, (2-aziridinylethyl) amine, was the most prevalent volatile component, followed by aldehyde, ketone, aldehyde, acid, ester, and furan. The results showed that the quantity and quality of the volatile compounds were influenced by a pH of the boiling medium. Additionally, the types and volatile profiles of the chicken were altered during chilling. In particular, in the chicken that was boiled at a pH of 8.0, the hexanal (an aldehyde) content increased the most after 7 d of chilling. Moreover, various alcohols formed after the 7 d of chilling of the chicken that was boiled at pHs of 8.0 and 9.0. Because of the oxidation and degradation of fat and proteins, the most altering volatile compounds were the reducing amines and the increasing aldehydes.

Background: The gastrocnemius (GCM) is one of the lower extremity muscles that tend to tighten easily. GCM tightness results in limited ankle dorsi-flexion (DF), especially when the knee joint is fully extended. Joint flexibility is determined by the morphological and physiological characteristics of joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Impaired joint flexibility can be attributed to increased susceptibility to muscle injury. High-frequency diathermy is clinically used to reduce pain and muscle tightness and to improve limited range of motion. Objects: This study aimed to investigate the immediate effects of high-frequency therapy in subjects with GCM tightness. Methods: The study was designed as a one-group before-after trial. The subjects included 28 volunteers with GCM tightness (an active ankle DF angle of less than 12°) without any known neurological and musculoskeletal pathologies in the ankle and calf areas. WINBACK Transfer Electrode Capacitive and Resistive Therapy equipment was used to apply high-frequency therapy to the subjects' GCMs for 10-15 minutes. The pennation angle and the fascicle length of the GCM were measured using ultrasonography. The flexibility of the ankle joint, peak torque to the passive ankle DF (Biodex), and soft tissue stiffness (MyotonPRO) were also measured. Results: The pennation angle was significantly decreased following the treatment; however, no significant difference in the fascicle length was found (p < 0.05). The flexibility was significantly increased and both the passive peak torque to passive ankle DF and the soft tissue stiffness significantly decreased (p < 0.05). Conclusion: High-frequency therapy is immediately effective for improving the muscle's architectural properties and functional factors in subjects with GCM tightness. Further longitudinal clinical studies are required to investigate the long-term effects of high-frequency therapy on subjects with GCM tightness from various causes.

Background: Many studies about climate-related range shift of plants have focused on understanding the relationship between climatic factors and plant distributions. However, consideration of adaptation factors, such as dispersal and plant physiological processes, is necessary for a more accurate prediction. This study predicted the future distribution of marlberry (Ardisia japonica), a warm-adapted evergreen broadleaved shrub, under climate change in relation to the dispersal ability that is determined by elapsed time for the first seed production. Results: We introduced climate change data under four representative concentration pathway (RCP 2.6, 4.5, 6.0, and 8.5) scenarios from five different global circulation models (GCMs) to simulate the future distributions (2041~2060) of marlberry. Using these 20 different climate data, ensemble forecasts were produced by averaging the future distributions of marlberry in order to minimize the model uncertainties. Then, a dispersal-limited function was applied to the ensemble forecast in order to exam the impact of dispersal capacity on future marlberry distributions. In the dispersal-limited function, elapsed time for the first seed production and possible dispersal distances define the dispersal capacity. The results showed that the current suitable habitats of marlberry expanded toward central coast and southern inland area from the current southern and mid-eastern coast area in Korea. However, given the dispersal-limited function, this experiment showed lower expansions to the central coast area and southern inland area. Conclusions: This study well explains the importance of dispersal capacity in the prediction of future marlberry distribution and can be used as basic information in understanding the climate change effects on the future distributions of Ardisia japonica.

In this study, spatio-temporal distribution of future drought in South Korea was predicted by using the meteorological data generated from GCMs on which a variety of climate changing scenarios are applied. Drought phenomena was quantitatively analyzed using SPI(Standardized Precipitation Index). In addition, potential drought hazard maps for different drought duration and return period were made for the South Koreaby drought frequency analysis after deriving SDF(Severity-Duration-Frequency) curves using the 54 weather stations throughout the country. From the potential drought hazard maps, drought is expected to be severer in Nakdong River basin and Seomjin River basin under A2 scenario. It was also predicted that drought would be severe in the Han River basin by RCP8.5 scenario. In the future, potential drought hazard area would be expanded until the Eastern part of Nakdong River basin as compared with that of past under A2 scenario condition. Research results indicated that future drought would be extensively occurred all areas of South Korea not limiting in the southern part of country.
