Health benefits from implementing air quality control measures were assessed using the Environmental Benefits Mapping and Analysis Program (BenMAP). BenMAP developed by US EPA is a GIS-based software tool that estimates the health impacts and associated economic values connected with changes in ambient air pollution. Once a set of BenMAP-required data was collected, the health benefits from implementing Seoul Air Quality Management Plan (SAQMP), an official AQ improvement plan for Seoul Metropolitan Area, was assessed using BenMAP. The PM10 concentrations assuming the SAQMP implemented successfully were predicted with the MM5 (Mesoscale Meteorological model version 5)/CMAQ (Community Multiscale Air Quality) model. A PM 10 exposure related premature mortality function was adopted trom a well-known epidemiology study. Economic valuation functions driven from benefit transfer methods were utilized. Through the SAQMP, PM10 concentrations were estimated to be lowered by $15{\mu}g/m^3\;to\;75{\mu}g/m^3$ depending on air quality modeling grids. 5,569 premature deaths (95% CI $3,264{\sim}7,809$ deaths) could be avoided in the Seoul Metropolitan Area. The economic value of the deaths avoided was estimated to $13.2 billion $(95%\;CI\;$890\;million{\sim}$28.2\;billion)$ using the benefit transfer value. BenMAP could be a useful tool for developing effective air quality improvement policy, enabling the policy makers to anticipate the effects of regulatory changes on people's health and the economy.

Several numerical experiments were carried out to clarify the influence of satellite data assimilation with various spatial resolution on mesoscale meteorological wind and temperature field. Satellite data used in this study is QuikSCAT launched on ADEOS II. QuikSCAT data is reasonable and faithful sea wind data, which have been verified through many observational studies. And numerical model in the study is MM5 developed by NCAR. Difference of wind pattern with and without satellite data assimilation appeared clearly, especially wind speed dramatically reduced on East Sea, when satellite data assimilation worked. And sea breeze is stronger in numerical experiments with RDAPS and satellite data assimilation than that with CDAS and data assimilation. This caused the lower estimated surface temperature in CDAS used cases. Therefore the influence of satellite data assimilation acts differently according to initial data quality. And it is necessary to make attention careful to handle the initial data for numerical simulations.

Prognostic meteorological model, MM5V3 (Mesoscale Model 5 Version 3) was used to assess the effects of the land-use modifications on spatial variations of temperature and wind fields in Busan during the selected period of summer season in 2000. We first examined sensitivity analysis for temperature between MM5V3 predictions and meteorological data observed at 4 AWS (Automatic Weather System) stations in Busan, which exhibited low structural and accurate errors (Mean Bias Error, MBE: 0.73, Root Mean Square Error, RMSE: 1.18 on maximum). The second part of this paper, MMSV3 simulations for the modification of land-use was performed with 1 km resolution in target domain, 46$\times$46 $\textrm{km}^2$ area around city of Busan. It was found that modification result from change of surface land-use in central urban area altered spatial distributions of temperature and wind. In particular, heat island core moved slightly to the seaward at 1300 LST. This results may imply that modification of surface land-use leads to change the thermal environments; in addition, it has a significant effect on local wind circulations and dispersions of air pollutants.

The behaviour of the fission gas plays an important role in the fuel rod performance. In a previous work, we presented a physics-based model describing intra- and inter-granular behaviour of radioactive fission gas. The model was implemented in SCIANTIX, a mesoscale module for fission gas behaviour, and assessed against the CONTACT 1 irradiation experiment. In this work, we present the multi-scale coupling between the TRANSURANUS fuel performance code and SCIANTIX, used as mechanistic module for stable and radioactive fission gas behaviour. We exploit the coupled code version to reproduce two integral irradiation experiments involving standard fuel rod segments in steady-state operation (CONTACT 1) and during successive power transients (HATAC C2). The simulation results demonstrate the predictive capabilities of the code coupling and contribute to the integral validation of the models implemented in SCIANTIX.

Gulf Stream 인근해역에서 해양 중규모 와동의 삼차원 구조분석을 HYCOM 수치모델을 사용하여 수행하였다. 시계방향 및 반시계 방향으로 회전하는 와동들의 구조를$1/12^{\circ}$와 $1/48^{\circ}$ 두개의 모델 해상도를 사용하여 비교하였다. 라그랑지안 모수인 Finite Size Lyapunov Exponent (FSLE) 와 Okubo-Weiss parameter(OW) 분포를 분석한 결과 표층의 와동구조가 수심 깊은 곳까지 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 와동에 의한 수평방향 해수운동이 수직방향 해수운동보다 크기 때문인 것으로 해석되었다. 고해상도 모델의 경우 와동근처에서 10 km 미만의 미세난류구조 들이 많이 발견되었으며, 이러한 미세난류구조들은 고해상도 모델의 와동근처에서 해수의 움직임을 저해상도 모델보다 불규칙하게 만드는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 미세난류구조에 의한 해수의 불규칙한 움직임은 분산계수 (dispersion coefficient)에도 영향을 미치는데, 수평 분산계수의 경우 해수운동이 자유로운 고해상도 모델이 저해상도 모델보다 그 값이 더 크게 나타났다. 수직 분산계수의 값은 저해상도 모델에서 더 크게 나왔는데, 이는 와동의 경사진 궤도를 따라 움직이는 저해상도 모델의 해수운동이 수직 분산계수값을 증가시키기 때문인 것으로 들어났다. 상대 수직 분산계수의 경우 이러한 궤도의 영향이 줄어들기 때문에 해수의 수직운동을 측정하는데 있어 절대 수직 분산계수 보다 더 적합한 것으로 판명되었다.

The characteristics of flow and pollutant dispersion for fire scenarios in an urban area are numerically investigated. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model coupled to a mesoscale weather research and forecasting (WRF) model is used in this study. In order to more accurately represent the effect of topography and buildings, the geographic information system (GIS) data is used as an input data of the CFD model. Considering prevailing wind, firing time, and firing points, four fire scenarios are setup in April 2008 when fire events occurred most frequently in recent five years. It is shown that the building configuration mainly determines wind speed and direction in the urban area. The pollutant dispersion patterns are different for each fire scenario, because of the influence of the detailed flow. The pollutant concentration is high in the horse-shoe vortex and recirculation zones (caused by buildings) close to the fire point. It thus means that the potential damage areas are different for each fire scenario due to the different flow and dispersion patterns. These results suggest that the accurate understanding of the urban flow is important to assess the effect of the pollutant dispersion caused by fire in an urban area. The present study also demonstrates that CFD model can be useful for the assessment of urban environment.

Understanding limitation of simulation for Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) height in mesoscale meteorological model is important for accurate meteorological variable and diffusion of air pollution. This study examined the accuracy for simulated PBL heights using two different PBL schemes (MYJ, YSU) in Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model during the radiosonde observation period. The simulated PBL height were verified using atmospheric sounding data obtained from radiosonde observations that were conducted during 5 months from August to December 2014 over the Gumi weir in Nakdong river. Four Dimensional Data Assimilation (FDDA) using radiosonde observation data were conducted to reduce error of PBL height in WRF model. The assessment result of PBL height showed that RMSE with YSU scheme were lower than that with MYJ scheme in the day and night time, respectively. Especially, the WRF model with YSU scheme produced lower PBL height than with the MYJ scheme during night time. The YSU scheme showed lower RMSE than the MYJ scheme on sunny, cloudy and rainy day, too. The experiment result of FDDA showed that PBL height error were reduced by FDDA and PBL height at the nudging coefficient of $3.0{\times}10^{-1}$ (YSU_FDDA_2) were similar to observation compared to the nudging coefficient of $3.0{\times}10^{-4}$ (YSU_FDDA_1).

대류가 유도하는 중규모 흐름에 미치는 비정역학 효과를 조사하기 위하여 기존의 무차원화된 정역학 모형을 바탕으로 무차원화된 비정역학 모형을 개발하였다. 모형을 검증하기 위하여 정역학 방정식 계의 해석해와 비정역학성이 아주 작은 경우의 수치 실험 결과를 비교하였고, 두 결과가 거의 같음을 확인하였다. 무차원화된 비정역학 모형을 이용하여 선형 계와 비선형 계에서 대류가 유도하는 중규모 흐름에 미치는 비정역학 효과를 조사하였다. 선형 계와 비선형 계 모두에서 비정역학성 인자가 작은 경우 열원 꼭대기 위에서 연직 방향으로, 비정역학성 인자가 상대적으로 큰 경우 주 상승 기류의 풍하측에서 수평 방향으로 상승 운동과 하강 운동이 교대하는 파동 형태의 섭동장이 나타났다. 풍하측에서 나타나는 상승 운동과 하강 운동을 분석하기 위하여 선형, 정상 상태, 비점성 흐름에 대한 Taylor-Goldstein 방정식을 구하였다. 주 상승기류의 풍하측에서 교대로 나타나는 상승 하강 기류세포는 전파파의 수평 방향 전파 성분과 에바네센트파, 즉 비정역학성 인자에 의해 결정되는 임계 파장보다 파장이 짧아 연직 방향으로 전파되지 못하고 수평 방향으로만 전파되는 중력파의 중첩으로 설명할 수 있다. 선형 계에 대한 수치 실험 결과에서 나타난 상승 하강 기류 세포의 수평 방향 길이는 선형 계에 대한 방정식에서 얻은 에바네센트 파의 임계 파장 길이의 절반과 일치하였으나, 약한 비선형 계에 대한 수치 실험 결과에서 나타난 상승 하강 기류 세포의 수평 방향 길이는 선형 계에 대한 방정식에서 얻은 에바네센트 파의 임계 파장 길이의 절반보다 다소 길었다. 주 상승 기류 지역 내에서 최대 상승 기류의 위치는 비선형성과 비정역학성 정도에 따라 다르게 나타났다.

Recently environmental regulations like the Kyoto Protocol, adopted in 1997, required the 5.2% reduction of the greenhouse gas emission in 1990. And 13th General Assembly in 2007, held in Bali of India, have agreed to duty reduction even in developing countries in 2013. Korean government needs the researches on climate change and the strategic programs for greenhouse gas reduction. In this paper Colorado State University Mesoscale Model(CSU-MM) was applied to simulate the relationship between surface albedo and air temperature. Meteorological model simulation in region of Ansan-City, Shiheung-City showed that mean air temperature became lower with the increase of albedo value. Simulated air temperature became lower $-0.16^{\circ}C$ and $-0.66^{\circ}C$ by 5% and 20% increase of albedo values respectively. And cooling energy saving amount in air conditioning process was calculated according to lowered air temperature. The reduction of air temperature resulted the reduction of air conditioning energy in personal house and commercial buildings. The increase of albedo from 5% to 20% resulted the reduction of air conditioning energy from 44,493 MWh/yr to 183,796 MWh/yr. Additionally the reduction of greenhouse gas emission through the energy saving was calculated after IPCC guideline. In terms of greenhouse gas emission $CO_2$ was reduced form -30,414 ton-$CO_2$/yr to -125,638 ton-$CO_2$/yr according to the reduction of electric energy.
