Rainfall data is one of the most important data in hydrologic modeling. In this study, the impacts of spatial resolution of precipitation data on hydrological responses were assessed using SWAT in the Santa Fe River Basin, Florida. High correlations were found between the FAWN and NLDAS rainfall data, which are observed weather data and simulated weather data based on observed data, respectively. FAWN-based scenarios had higher maximum rainfall and more rainfall days and events compared to NLDAS-based scenarios. Downstream areas showed lower correlations between rainfall and peak discharge than upstream areas due to the characteristics of study site. All scenarios did not show significant differences in base flow, and showed less than 5% of differences in high flows among NLDAS-based scenarios. The impact of resolution will appear differently depending on the characteristics of the watershed and topography and the applied model, and thus, is a process that must be considered in advance in runoff simulation research. The study suggests that applying the research method to watersheds in Korea may yield more pronounced results, and highlights the importance of considering data resolution in hydrologic modeling.

우리나라의 동일강수지역에 대한 구분은 기상학적으로 의미를 지닐 뿐만 아니라 장기예보를 위한 자료로 활용된다. 또한 최근 들어 수문학에서는 확률강수량을 산정하기 위해 지금까지 사용되어 온 지점빈도해석의 단점을 보완한 지역빈도해석방법의 활용이 적극 제시되고 있다. 이에 따라 동일강수지역의 군집화에 대한 연구의 필요성이 증가하게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 1980년부터 2010년까지 61개 지상관측지점의 자료를 이용하여 자기조직화지도 군집기법으로 동일강수 지역을 군집화하고 K-means Clustering과 Davies-Bouldin Index를 적용하여 우리나라의 동일강수지역에 대해 6개의 최적 군집 개수를 산출하였다. 그리고 최종적으로 GIS에 기반한 Thiessen Polygon을 활용하여 동질지역의 지역화 하였다.

Thermodynamic conditions related with localized torrential rainfall in the middle west region of Korean peninsula are examined using radar rain rate and radiosonde observational data. Localized torrential rainfall events in this study are defined by three criteria base on 1) any one of Automated Synoptic Observing System (ASOS) hourly rainfall exceeds $30mmhr^{-1}$ around Osan, 2) the rain (> $1mmhr^{-1}$) area estimated from radar reflectivity is less than $20,000km^2$, and 3) the rain (> $10mmhr^{-1}$) cell is detected clearly and duration is short than 24 hr. As a result, 13 cases were selected during the summer season of 10 years (2004-13). It was found that the duration, the maximum rain area, and the maximum volumetric rain rate of convective cells (> $30mmhr^{-1}$) are less than 9hr, smaller than $1,000km^2$, and $15,000{\sim}60,000m^3s^{-1}$ in these cases. And a majority of cases shows the following thermodynamic characteristics: 1) Convective Available Potential Energy (CAPE) > $800Jkg^{-1}$, 2) Convective Inhibition (CIN) < $40Jkg^{-1}$, 3) Total Precipitable Water (TPW) ${\approx}$ 55 mm, and 4) Storm Relative Helicity (SRH) < $120m^2s^{-2}$. These cases mostly occurred in the afternoon. These thermodynamic conditions indicated that these cases were caused by strong atmospheric instability, lifting to overcome CIN, and sufficient moisture. The localized torrential rainfall occurred with deep moisture convection result from the instability caused by convective heating.

An unusual long-period and heavy snowfall occurred in the Yeongdong region from 6 to 14 February 2014. This event produced snowfall total of 194.8 cm and the recordbreaking 9-day snowfall duration in the 103-year local record at Gangneung. In this study, satellite-derived cloud-top brightness temperatures from the infrared channel in the atmospheric window ($10{\mu}m{\sim}11{\mu}m$) are examined to find out the characteristics of clouds related with this heavy snowfall event. The analysis results reveal that a majority of precipitation is related with the low-level stratiform clouds whose cloud-top brightness temperatures are distributed from -15 to $-20^{\circ}C$ and their standard deviations over the analysis domain (${\sim}1,000km^2$, 37 satellite pixels) are less than $2^{\circ}C$. It is also found that in the above temperature range precipitation intensity tends to increase with colder temperature. When the temperatures are warmer than $-15^{\circ}C$, there is no precipitation or light precipitation. Furthermore this relation is confirmed from the examination of some other heavy snowfall events and light precipitation events which are related with the low-level stratiform clouds. This precipitation-brightness temperature relation may be explained by the combined effect of ice crystal growth processes: the maximum in dendritic ice-crystal growth occurs at about $-15^{\circ}C$ and the activation of ice nuclei begins below temperatures from approximately -7 to $-16^{\circ}C$, depending on the composition of the ice nuclei.

호우 예측 정확도의 향상에도 불구하고 호우재해로 인한 사회경제적 비용이 지속적으로 증가하고 있는 것은 기상이 미치는 영향에 대한 이해의 부족 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 WMO에서 제시한 영향예보 핵심개념인 재해, 취약성, 노출 개념을 활용하여 지역별 호우잠재영향을 평가하고 호우발생과 연계하여 호우재해의 위험도를 분석하였다. 노출과 취약성 변수로 호우잠재영향을 구성하였고, 호우재해지수는 호우특보 기준에 따라 선정한 3개의 변수를 선정하여 산정하였다. 호우잠재영향 지수의 가중치는 주성분분석을 이용하여 산정하였으며, 호우재해지수는 동일한 가중치를 부여하여 산정하였다. 호우잠재영향지수와 실제 호우피해액과의 상관분석 결과 높은 상관관계가 증명되어 호우잠재영향지수는 실제의 피해양상을 적절히 반영하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 호우재해위험도는 호우잠재영향지수와 호우재해지수로 구성된 위험도 매트릭스를 이용하여 산정하였다. 본 연구는 시공간적으로 변화하는 호우예특보를 위한 호우영향분석 연구의 토대를 제공하고 지역별 호우방재대책을 수립하는데 유용한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study aims to introduce the structure of the impact-based heat health warning system on 165 counties in South Korea developed by the National Institute of Meteorological Sciences. This system was developed using the daily maximum perceived temperature (PTmax), which is a human physiology-based thermal comfort index, and the Local ENSemble prediction system for the probability forecasts. Also, A risk matrix proposed by the World Meteorological Organization was employed for the impact-based forecasts of this system. The threshold value of the risk matrix was separately set depending on regions. In this system, the risk level was issued as four levels (GREEN, YELLOW, ORANGE, RED) for first, second, and third forecast lead-day (LD1, LD2, and LD3). The daily risk level issued by the system was evaluated using emergency heat-related patients obtained at six cities, including Seoul, Incheon, Daejeon, Gwangju, Daegu, and Busan, for LD1 to LD3. The high-risks level occurred more consistently in the shorter lead time (LD3 → LD1) and the performance (r_s) was increased from 0.42 (LD3) to 0.45 (LD1) in all cities. Especially, it showed good performance (r_s = 0.51) in July and August, when heat stress is highest in South Korea. From an impact-based forecasting perspective, PTmax is one of the most suitable temperature indicators for issuing the health risk warnings by heat in South Korea.

Accurately predicting localized heavy rainfall is challenging without high-resolution mesoscale cloud information in the numerical model's initial field, as precipitation intensity and amount vary significantly across regions. In the Korean Peninsula, the radar observation network covers the entire country, providing high-resolution data on hydrometeors which is suitable for data assimilation (DA). During the pre-processing stage, radar reflectivity is classified into hydrometeors (e.g., rain, snow, graupel) using the background temperature field. The mixing ratio of each hydrometeor is converted and inputted into a numerical model. Moreover, assimilating saturated water vapor mixing ratio and decomposing radar radial velocity into a three-dimensional wind vector improves the atmospheric dynamic field. This study presents radar DA experiments using a numerical prediction model to enhance the wind, water vapor, and hydrometeor mixing ratio information. The impact of radar DA on precipitation prediction is analyzed separately for each radar component. Assimilating radial velocity improves the dynamic field, while assimilating hydrometeor mixing ratio reduces the spin-up period in cloud microphysical processes, simulating initial precipitation growth. Assimilating water vapor mixing ratio further captures a moist atmospheric environment, maintaining continuous growth of hydrometeors, resulting in concentrated heavy rainfall. Overall, the radar DA experiment showed a 32.78% improvement in precipitation forecast accuracy compared to experiments without DA across four cases. Further research in related fields is necessary to improve predictions of mesoscale heavy rainfall in South Korea, mitigating its impact on human life and property.

There is a high confidence based on scientific evidence that climate is changing over time. Now climate change is considered as one of the challenges facing the construction industry. As no project is risk free and climate change has a strong impact on the different phases of the construction project lifecycle. This research aimed at providing a platform of knowledge for the construction management practitioners about the impacts of climate change on the construction projects lifecycle, identify the most dangerous climate change factors on the construction project lifecycle, and identify the most affected phase by climate change factors through the construction projects lifecycle. The study depended on the opinions of civil engineers who have worked in the construction projects field among the reality of Gaza Strip. Questionnaire tool was adopted as the main research methodology in order to achieve the desired objectives. The questionnaire included 127 factors in order to obtain responses from 88 construction practitioners out of 98 representing 89.79% response rate about the influence of climate change on the generic lifecycle of construction projects. The results deduced that the most significant influence on the construction project lifecycle was related to the extreme weather events, rainfall change, and temperature change respectively. There was a general agreement between the respondents that the most affected phase by temperature, rainfall, and extreme weather events is the execution phase. The results also asserted with a high responses scale on the need to alternative procedures and clear strategies in order to face the climate change within construction industry.

본 연구에서는 지표이용도 특성이 반영된 고해상도 기상예측모델 도시캐노피모형(WRF-UCM)의 수치모의 실험을 통해 도심과 전원 지역 기상변수 및 에너지수지 변화 경향에 대하여 분석하였다. UCM을 적용하지 않은 WRF 모의 결과를 규준실험으로 설정하였으며, 거칠기 길이 변화와 인공열 고려에 따라 총 4가지 실험을 비교하여 분석하였다. UCM을 적용한 실험에서 거칠기 길이의 수정 전과 후의 기온과 풍속의 변화가 크게 나타나지 않았으나, 인공열을 고려한 UCM의 모의 기온과 풍속은 고려하기 전보다 크게 차이가 나타났다. 모의 실험 간의 차이는 전원 지역보다 도시 지역에서 더 크게 나타났다. 자동기상관측(AWS) 기온 관측 자료에 대하여 UCM에 인공열을 고려한 결과의 평방근오차(RMSE)가 가장 적었다. 또한, 차세대도시농림융합기상사업단의 중랑 에너지수지관측소지점의 현열플럭스 관측자료에 대한 검증 수치는 인공열을 고려하여 UCM을 적용한 실험의 RMSE와 BIAS 값이 가장 낮았다. 인공열을 고려한 UCM 적용이 도심의 현열플럭스 모의 향상에 영향을 주었다. 또한, UCM을 적용한 후 도시 지역 잠열플럭스의 변화 모의를 분석할 수 있었으며, 도심과 전원 지역 모두 UCM 적용 후에 관측 값과 더 가까운 검증 수치를 나타냈다. 결과적으로 WRF 모델에 UCM의 적용이 지표플럭스 모의 향상에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다.
