우리나라의 산림은 지형적으로 복잡한 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 효율적인 산림관리를 위해서는 산림지역에 특화된 기상관측이 중요하다. 특히, 최근 기후변화에 따른 건조와 집중호우 등 이상기상 현상으로 산림재해가 발생할 수 있기 때문에, 이를 효과적으로 예방하고 관리하기 위한 대책 마련이 필요하다. 이를 위해 산림청에서는 산악지역에 대한 기상 자료를 수집하기 위해 2012년부터 산악기상관측망 구축을 시작했고, 현재 464개소의 산악기상관측망을 운영하고 있다. 산악기상관측망에서는 기온, 상대습도, 풍향과 풍속, 강수량, 지면온도, 대기압 등 7개 기상요소를 관측한다. 기상 자료는 1분 간격의 실시간 자료를 수집하며, 자료의 신뢰도 확보를 위한 품질관리 시스템을 운영하고 있다. 산악기상관측 자료의 품질관리는 물리한계검사, 단계검사, 내적 일치성검사, 지속성검사, 기후범위검사, 중앙값 필터검사 등 6가지 품질검사를 수행한다. 고품질 산악기상정보는 공동활용을 위해 산악기상정보시스템과 공공데이터 포털을 통해 자료를 공개하고 있다. 산악지역에 특화된 산악기상정보는 산림관리 및 산림재해 방지뿐만 아니라 국민 생활안전과 산림휴양⋅레저 등 다양한 분야에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The synoptic condition of clear-air turbulence (CAT) events occurred over South Korea is investigated, using the Regional Data Assimilation and Prediction System (RDAPS) data obtained from the Korea Meteorological Agency (KMA) and pilot reports (PIREPs) collected by Korea Aviation Meteorological Agency (KAMA) from 1 Dec. 2003 to 30 Nov. 2008. Throughout the years, strong subtropical jet stream exists over the South Korea, and the CAT events frequently occur in the upper-level frontal zone and subtropical jet stream regions where strong vertical wind shears locate. The probability of the moderate or greater (MOG)-level turbulence occurrence is higher in wintertime than in summertime, and high probability region is shifted northward across the jet stream in wintertime. We categorize the CAT events into three types according to their generation mechanisms: i) upper-level front and jet stream, ii) anticyclonically sheared and curved flows, and iii) breaking of mountain waves. Among 240 MOG-level CAT events reported during 2003-2008, 103 cases are related to jet stream while 73 cases and 25 cases are related to the anticyclonic shear flow and breaking of mountain wave, respectively.

본 연구는 KLAM_21을 활용한 바람형성기능 평가분석에 관한 연구로서 대구시를 사례대상지로 실제 도시공간상에서 지형조건과 토지이용에 따라 어떻게 바람이 유동하고 있는지를 살펴보았다. 먼저, 신천상류 가창골 일대의 계곡과 주변산지 경사면에서 형성된 찬공기는 신천상류를 따라 북쪽으로 유동되어 확장되고 있었으며, 시간이 경과함에 따라 찬공기의 양과 높이 그리고 유속 및 방향 등에 있어서도 점점 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있었다. 이는 이 지역의 공간적 특성이 찬공기가 생성되고 유동하는데 있어서 매우 양호한 조건을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있다. 한편, 앞산공원지역에서는 앞산공원일대를 가로지르는 고가도로와 바람의 유동을 방해하는 대규모의 아파트단지 밀집, 그리고 공원내의 건축물 등의 도시개발의 행위로 인하여 찬공기의 생성 및 유동이 크게 방해를 받고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 찬공기의 양과 높이에 있어서도 미약하게 나타나고 있다. 결국, 바람길의 공간적 효과를 극대화시키기 위해서는 바람길생성의 기본 형태인 찬공기 형성 및 유동, 그리고 찬공기 축적 및 유지지역이 공간적으로 연계되어야 하며, 이러한 공간적 연계는 지역의 공간적 특성과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 알 수 있다.

Place names or toponyms including Gosan, Busan and Buraesan can be very important and interesting storytelling subjects in terms of geomorphology and folklore studies also. Several studies done by folklorists, those sixty five mountain-moving stories with similar names can be grouped into several categories through formation processes and origin, transport media and imposition of tax. Geomorphological studies can focus on transport media. They can be classified into six different categories; 1) flood from upstream through river, 2) voluntary walk of mountains, 3) by wind, 4) upwelling from underground, 5) involvement of mythical beings such as Mago Granny or Dokkaebi (kind of goblin), or 6) migration by ocean current.

A numerical simulation for 11 February 1996 has been done to grasp main mechanisms of the occurrence of strong downslope winds near Gangnung area. The simulation performed by using ARPS (Advanced Regional Prediction System) showed that enhanced surface winds were not related with a reflection of vertically propagating gravity waves. Froude numbers were about 1.0, 0.4 and 0.6 for the atmosphere above Daekwanryoung and above a place located 220km upstream, and above another place located 230km downstream from the Taebak mountains, respectively. This suggested that as a subcritical flow ascended the upslope side of the Taebak mountains, Froude numbers would tend to increase according to the increase in wind speed, and near the crest the flow would become supercritical and continue to accelerate as it went down the downslope side until it was adapted back to the ambient subcritical conditions in a turbulent hydraulic jump. Simulated Froude numbers corroborated the hydraulic jump nature of the strong downslope wind. In addition, the inversion was found near the mountain top height upstream of the mountains, and it was favorable for the occurrence of strong downslope winds.

A 3D sonic anemometer has been installed at Yongpyong alpine slope since Oct. 23th 2014 to observe the slope winds and to analyze turbulent characteristics with the change in surface cover (grass and snow) and the synoptic wind strength. Eddy covariance method has been applied to calculate the turbulent quantity after coordinate transformation of a planar-fit rotation. We have carefully selected 3 good episodes in the winter season (23 October 2014 to 28 February 2015) for each category (9 days in total), such as grass and snow covers in case of weak synoptic wind condition, and grass cover of strong synoptic wind. The diurnal variations of the slope winds were well developed like the upslope wind in the daytime and downslope wind in the nighttime for both surface covers (grass and snow) in the weak synoptic forcing, when accordingly both heat and momentum fluxes significantly increased in the daytime and decreased in the nighttime. Meanwhile, diurnal variation of heat flux was not present on the snow cover probably in associated with significant fraction of sunlight reflection due to high albedo especially during the daytime in comparison to those on the grass cover. In the strong synoptic regime, the most dominant feature at Yongpyong, only the southeasterly downslope winds were steadily generated irrespective of day and night with significant increases in momentum flux and turbulent kinetic energy as well, which could suggest that local circulations are suppressed by the synoptic scale forcing. In spite of only one season analysis applied to the limited domain, this kind of an observation-based study will provide the basis for understanding of the local wind circulation in the complex mountain domain such as Gangwon in Korea.

We focus on the improvement of accuracy of sea surface wind over complex coastal area doling the warm season. Local Analysis Prediction System (LAPS) was used to improve the initial values in Mesoscale Meteorological model (MM5). During the clear summer days with weak wind speed, sea surface wind simulated with LAPS was compared with the case without LAPS. The results of modeling with LAPS has a good agreement mesoscale circulation such as mountain and valley winds on land and in case of modeling without LAPS, wind speed overestimated over the sea in the daytime. And the results of simulation with LAPS indicated similar wind speed values to observational data over the sea under influence of data assimilation using BUOY, QuikSCAT, and AMEBAS. The present study suggests that MM5 modelling with LAPS showed more improved results than that of without LAPS to simulate sea surface wind over the complex coastal area.

The numerical simulation of wind and ozone ($O_3$) transport in mountainous regions was performed with a computational fluid dynamics technique. A dry deposition model for $O_3$ was designed to estimate $O_3$ deposition in complex terrain, and the qualitative validity of the predicted $O_3$ concentration field was confirmed by comparison with observed data collected with passive samplers. The simulation revealed that wind velocity increases around ridge lines and peaks of mountains. The areas with strong wind corresponded well with the sites of tree decline at high altitudes, suggesting that it is an important factor in the localization of tree/forest decline. On the other hand, there is no direct relationship between forest decline and $O_3$ concentration. The $O_3$ concentration, however, tends to increase as wind velocity becomes higher, thus the $O_3$ concentration itself may be a potential secondary factor in the localized decline phenomena. While the diffusion flux of $O_3$ is not related to localized tree decline, the pattern of advection flux is related to those of high wind velocity and localized tree decline. These results suggest that strong wind with large advection flux of $O_3$ may play a key role in the promotion of tree/forest decline at high mountain ridges and peaks.

Present work aims to establish an integrated management system of environmental data base for nine typical wind holes or air holes in Korea. It basically deals with definition, geographical distribution, morphological pattern, physical characteristics and anthropogenic environments of wind hole to propose systematic preservation strategy of their periglacial landscape and flora, which are known to be sensitive to global warming. Wind hole, in which cool air blows out during the summer, but mild air comes out during the winter from a cave or hole, is frequently found on northwest- and north-facing slopes on the terminal point of steep talus, block field, and block stream, and can be categorized into three types, i.e., talus, cave and sink types. Environmental characteristics of nine wind holes are analyzed on the basis of their geology, landform, climate, soil, hydrology, vegetation, road, footpath, land-use, and management system, and relevant DB are prepared. Wind hole areas with unique landscape and ecological values need to be designated as a nature reserve, and zoning of core, buffer, and transitional zones are required for the multi-dimensional preservation of periglacial landscape and ecosystem. Phytogeographical values of glacial relict plants, including mountain cranberry(Vaccinium vitis-idaea) at its global southernmost limit at Bangnaeri wind hole, Hongchon County, Gangwon Province of Korea are discussed in detail as a floristic refugia in connection with climate change during the Pleistocene Epoch and potential in-situ and ex-situ preservation sites in the future.
