Generally, the GCM (General Circulation Model) data by IPCC climate change scenarios are used for future weather prediction. IPCC GCM models predict well for the continental scale, but is not good for the regional scale. This paper tried to generate future temperature and precipitation of 8 scattered meteorological stations in South Korea by using the MIROC3.2 hires GCM data and applying LARS-WG downscaling method. The MIROC3.2 A1B scenario data were adopted because it has the similar pattern comparing with the observed data (1977-2006) among the scenarios. The results showed that both the future precipitation and temperature increased. The 2080s annual temperature increased $3.8{\sim}5.0^{\circ}C$. Especially the future temperature increased up to $4.5{\sim}7.8^{\circ}C$ in winter period (December-February). The future annual precipitation of 2020s, 2050s, and 2080s increased 17.5 %, 27.5 %, and 39.0 % respectively. From the trend analysis for the future projected results, the above middle region of South Korea showed a statistical significance for winter precipitation and south region for summer rainfall.

본 연구에서는 NOAA CPC에서 제공하고 있는 인공위성을 이용한 광역적 강수량 추정 자료인 CMORPH와 지상 관측자료와의 비교를 통해 위성으로부터 유도된 강수자료의 정확도 및 활용 가능성 등 수자원 분야 이용 가능성을 분석하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 2002-2011년의 10년간의 자료를 분석한 결과 1일 누가강수의 상관계수가 평균 0.87 정도로 분석되었으나, 연간 총강수량은 약 4~5배 정도 차이가 나는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 시간해상도가 커짐에 따라 RMSE의 변동성이 작아지는 것으로 분석되었다. 유역 규모에 따른 분석에서 유역 규모가 커질수록 강수자료의 정확도에 대한 평가가 향상되는 것으로 분석되었다.

This study compares the summer monsoon circulations during a heavy rainfall period over the Korean peninsular from 11 to 18 July 2004, simulated by three widely used regional models; WRF, MM5, and RSM. An identical model setup is carried out for all the experiments, except for the physical option differences in the RSM. The three models with a nominal resolution of about 50 km over Korea are nested by NCEP-DOE reanalysis data. Another RSM experiment with the same cumulus parameterization scheme as in the WRF and MM5 is designed to investigate the importance of the representation of subgrid-scale parameterized convection in reproducing monsoonal circulations in East Asia. All thee models are found to be capable of reproducing the general distribution of monsoonal precipitation, extending northeastward from south China across the Korean peninsula, to northern Japan. The results from the WRF and MM5 are similar in terms of accumulated precipitation, but a slightly better performance in the WRF than in the MM5. The RSM improves the bias for precipitation as compared to those from the WRF and MM5, but the pattern correlation is degraded due to overestimation of precipitation in northern China. In the comparison of simulated synoptic scale features, the RSM is found to reproduce the large-scale features well compared to the results from the MM5 and WRF. On the other hand, the simulated precipitation from the RSM with the convection scheme used in the MM5 and WRF is closer to that from the WRF and MM5 simulations, indicating the significant dependency of simulated precipitation in East Asia on the cumulus parameterization scheme.

강우는 수문 순환에서 중요한 요소 중에 하나로 시 공간적 변동성이 크므로 정확한 공간 강우장의 파악이 요구된다. 열대강우 관측 위성(Tropical Rainfall Monitoring Mission, TRMM)에서 제공하는 3B43 월 누적 강우량 자료는 25 km의 공간 해상도를 갖고 있어 공간 강우장의 정확성을 높이기 위해 상세화 기법을 적용하여 1 km의 공간 해상도로 생성하였다. Terra 위성에 탑재된 MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometers) 센서가 제공하는 정규식생지수(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, NDVI) (공간 해상도 1 km)와 강우 자료의 관계성을 회귀식으로 나타냈고 상세화 기법에 적용하였다. 이에 따른 결과를 지점과 위성 강우 자료와의 차이를 통해 보정하는 방법인 GDA (Geographical Difference Analysis)와 지점과 위성 강우 자료와의 비율로 편차를 보정하는 GRA (Geographical Ratio Analysis) 상세화 기법을 사용하여 공간 강우장을 나타내었다. 우리나라의 공간 강우장 결과를 지점 자료를 기준으로 비교 검증을 실시하였다. 그 결과 GDA 상세화 기법의 경우가 2009년(Bias=4.26 mm, RMSE=172.16 mm, MAE=141.95 mm, IOA=0.64), 2011년(Bias=17.21 mm, RMSE=253.43 mm, MAE=310.56 mm, IOA=0.62)으로 가장 잘 맞는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 바탕으로 우리나라의 공간 강우장을 1 km의 공간 해상도로 파악할 수 있었으며, 더 나아가 지점의 수를 늘려 보정을 정밀하게 하거나, 강우 레이더 자료를 가지고 상세화 기법을 적용한다면 더욱 정확한 공간 강우장을 파악할 수 있을 것이다.

Stochastic weather generators are commonly used to simulate time series of daily weather, especially precipitation amount. Recently, a generalized linear model (GLM) has been proposed as a convenient approach to fitting these weather generators. In this paper, a stochastic weather generator is considered to model the time series of daily precipitation at Seoul in South Korea. As a covariate, global temperature is introduced to relate long-term temporal scale predictor to short-term temporal predictands. One of the limitations of stochastic weather generators is a marked tendency to underestimate the observed interannual variance of monthly, seasonal, or annual total precipitation. To reduce this phenomenon, we incorporate time series of seasonal total precipitation in the GLM weather generator as covariates. It is veri ed that the addition of these covariates does not distort the performance of the weather generator in other respects.

Recently, because of the weather forecasts through the low-resolution data has been limited, the demand of the high-resolution data is sharply increasing. Therefore, in this study, we restore the ultra-high resolution synthetic precipitation and temperature data for 2000-2014 due to small-scale topographic effect using the QPM (Quantitative Precipitation Model)/QTM (Quantitative Temperature Model). First, we reproduce the detailed precipitation and temperature data with 1km resolution using the distribution of Automatic Weather System (AWS) data and Automatic Synoptic Observation System (ASOS) data, which is about 10km resolution with irregular grid over South Korea. Also, we recover the precipitation and temperature data with 1km resolution using the MERRA reanalysis data over North Korea, because there are insufficient observation data. The precipitation and temperature from restored current climate reflect more detailed topographic effect than irregular AWS/ASOS data and MERRA reanalysis data over the Korean peninsula. Based on this analysis, more detailed prospect of regional climate is investigated.

This study investigates variations in the Western Pacific Subtropical High (WPSH) and its impact on South Korean precipitation in late summer during the period between 1958 and 2017. Composite analysis reveals that precipitation occurrence is directly linked to the displacement of the WPSH western ridge, a single, large-scale feature of the atmosphere in the Pacific Ocean. When WPSH ridging is located northwest (NW) of its climatological mean position, excessive precipitation is expected in late summer due to enhanced moisture transport. On the other hand, a precipitation deficit is frequently observed when the western ridge is located in the southeast (SE). Different phases of the WPSH are associated with lagged patterns of Pacific and Atlantic atmospheric and oceanic variability, introducing the potential to predict variability in the WPSH western ridge and its climate over northern East Asia by one month. Based on the identified SST patterns, a simple statistical model is developed and improvement in the ability to predict is confirmed through a cross-validation framework. Finally, the potential for further improvements in WPSH-based predictions is addressed.

현재 남한에서는 270m 해상도의 강수분포도가 제작되어 활용되고 있지만, 북한지역에는 강수관측점의 수가 남한에 비하여 매우 적어서 남한과 같은 방법으로 강수분포를 추정하기는 어렵다. 자료가 불충분한 북한지방의 강수추정을 위해 우선 낮은 해상도의 강수기후도를 PRISM을 이용하여 제작하고 격자 내 지형특성을 반영하기 위해 여기에 상대적으로 자료가 풍부한 남한의 '지형-강수 관계'에 근거한 보정값을 더하는 방법을 모색하였다. 남한 지역 270m 해상도의 DEM에서 자동기상관측소와 표준기상관측소 위치의 격자값을 추출하고 이들을 이용하여 AWS+KMA 및 KMA에 해당하는 가상지형을 만든 다음, 둘 간의 편차를 얻었다. 강수량에 대해서도 동일한 작업을 하여 둘 간의 편차를 얻어 경사향별로 고도편차-강수편차 간 회귀식을 도출하였다. 북한 지역의 270m 해상도의 DEM과 27개 기상대 고도 값으로 IDW한 가상지형 간의 편차를 구한 다음, 남한에서 얻은 회귀식을 적용하여 보정값을 계산하였다. 북한지역에 대해 2,430m 해상도로 PRISM모형을 구동하고 보정값을 적용하여 최종강수량을 얻었다. 제작된 강수기후도에 따르면 북한지방의 연간 총 강수량은 지역평균이 1,196mm이며 표준편차는 298mm인 것으로 추정된다.

Extreme temperatures and precipitations are expected to be more frequently occurring due to the ongoing global warming over the Korean Peninsula. However, few studies have analyzed the synoptic weather patterns associated with extreme events in a warming world. Here, the atmospheric patterns related to future extreme events are first analyzed using the HadGEM3-RA regional climate model. Simulations showed that the variability of temperature and precipitation will increase in the future (2051-2100) compared to the present (1981-2005), accompanying the more frequent occurrence of extreme events. Warm advection from East China and lower latitudes, a stagnant anticyclone, and local foehn wind are responsible for the extreme temperature (daily T>$38^{\circ}C$) episodes in Korea. The extreme precipitation cases (>$500mm\;day^{-1}$) were mainly caused by mid-latitude cyclones approaching the Korean Peninsula, along with the enhanced Changma front by supplying water vapor into the East China Sea. These future synoptic-scale features are similar to those of present extreme events. Therefore, our results suggest that, in order to accurately understand future extreme events, we should consider not only the effects of anthropogenic greenhouse gases or aerosol increases, but also small-scale topographic conditions and the internal variations of climate systems.

Characteristics of precipitation response to enhanced aerosols have been investigated during the severe haze events observed in Korea for 2011 to 2016. All 6-years haze events are classified into long-range transported haze (LH: 31%), urban haze (UH: 28%), and yellow sand (YS: 18%) in order. Long-range transported one is mainly discussed in this study. Interestingly, both LH (68%) and YS (87%) appear to be more frequently accompanied with precipitation than UH (48%). We also found out the different timing of precipitation for LH and YS, respectively. The variations of precipitation frequency for the LH event tend to coincide with aerosol variations specifically in terms of temporal covariation, which is in contrast with YS. Increased aerosol loadings following precipitation for the YS event seems to be primarily controlled by large scale synoptic forcing. Meanwhile, aerosols for the LH event may be closely associated with precipitation longevity through changes in cloud microphysics such that enhanced aerosols can increase smaller cloud droplets and further extend light precipitation at weaker rate. Notably, precipitation persisted longer than operational weather forecast not considering detailed aerosol-cloud interactions, but the timescale was limited within a day. This result demonstrates active interactions between aerosols and meteorology such as probable modifications of cloud microphysics and precipitation, synoptic-induced dust transport, and precipitation-scavenging in Korea. Understanding of aerosol potential effect on precipitation will contribute to improving the performance of numerical weather model especially in terms of precipitation timing and location.
