Rainfall data from three different types of rain gauge system have been collected for the summertime rain event at Mokpo in the Korean peninsula. The rain gauge system considered in this paper is composed of three tipping-bucket rain gauges with 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5 mm measuring resolutions, the Optical Rain Gauge (ORG), and the PARSIVEL (PARticle SIze and VELocity). The PARSIVEL rainfall rate has been considered as the reference for comparison since it gave good resolution and performance on this event. Comparison with the PARSIVEL rainfall rate gives the results that the error and temporal variation of rainfall rate are simultaneously reduced with increasing the averaging interval of rainfall rate or decreasing the size of tipping bucket. This suggests that the estimated rainfall rate must be optimized, differently for the type of tipping-bucket rain gages, by minimizing the averaging interval of rainfall rate under the condition satisfying the given performance of rainfall rate.

R-Z 관계식은 레이더 강우추정의 정확도를 결정하는 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 캐나다 궤벡주의 셍레미에서 홍수를 야기한 폭우사례에서 관측된 우적계 및 레이더 자료를 이용하여 레이더 강우추정 시 우적계 자료에서 도출된 R-Z 관계식의 효과를 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 맥길 S-밴드 레이더에서 시간 분해능 2.5분과 공간 분해능 $1^{\circ}{\times}250m$로 관측된 레이더 반사도를 사용하였다. 레이더 반사도 자료에서는 폭우를 동반한 강우세포가 셍레미를 통과한 것으로 관측되었지만 우량계 관측망에서는 낮은 공간 분해능으로 인하여 이 세포가 관측되지 않았다. 셍레미에서 30분과 1시간 최대 누적 강우량은 각각 39 mm와 42 mm였다. 강우사례 동안 두 개의 우적계(POSS; Precipitation Occurrence Sensor System)가 사용되었다. 하나의 우적계는 레이더 반사도와 우적계 반사도를 비교하여 레이더 반사도를 보정하고 다른 우적계는 R-Z 관계식을 유도하는데 사용되었다. 기후학적 R-Z 관계식을 사용하였을 때 보다 반사도에 의존적인 우적계에서 유도된 관계식을 사용하였을 때 강우 추정 오차가 크게 줄었다. 일 누적 강우량에 대하여 편차는 +12%에서 -2%, 평균제곱근오차가 16%에서 10%로 줄었다. 우적계에서 도출된 R-Z 관계식으로 추정된 레이더 강우장을 이용하였을 때 홍수사례에 대하여 강우 발생 시간 및 강우량이 잘 일치하였다.

The objective of this study is to analyze the greenroof runoff quantity and delay. The experimental districts, have different soil thickness and vegetation, had installed. A measurement was conducted in Seoul University to investigate the runoff quantity and delay of the greenroof. The measurement point of runoff quality data were 8, located next to each experimental district. Also, the precipitation was measured by rain gauges(# RG2). The experimental investigation lasted from 21th July to 4th December, a total of 137 days. The results showed that the greenroof can contribute runoff retention and delay by soil, but the intensity of actual rain event affected the runoff reduction and delay. Overall, when was the rainy season, percent rainfall retention ranged 17.5% and runoff flow was delayed for 1-3 hours. But on the other hand, when was the typical rain event, percent rainfall retention ranged over 90% and runoff flow was delayed for 1-11 hours. In the result, the greenroof had the greatest runoff retention and delay, while for the typical rain event.

We report that a strong downflow event caused three-minute oscillations in the solar atmosphere. Our observations were carried out by using the Fast Imaging Solar Spectrograph (FISS) of the 1.6 meter New Solar Telescope (NST) and the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS). Our main findings are as follows: (1) The strong downflow was seen at the $H{\alpha}$ absorption line at first, and then appeared at the Si IV and C II emission lines. It seems that the characteristics of the downflow are consistent with a coronal rain event. (2) After the event, oscillations of velocity were identified in the chromospheric lines and transition region lines. (3) The amplitudes of oscillations were 2km/s at Mg II line and 3km/s at C II and Si IV lines and decreased with time. (4) The period of the oscillation was 2.67 minutes at first, but gradually increased with time. Our findings are in agreement with Chae & Goode (2015)'s theory that of acoustic waves generated by a disturbance in a gravitationally-stratified medium.

A one dimensional time dependent acid rain model considering size distribution of aerosols and hydrometeors is developed to predict observed chemical and physical properties of precipitation. Temporal variations of anions and cations observed are predicted fairly well with acid rain model simulations. It is found that aerosol depletion rates are highly dependent on aerosol sizes under the assumption of Marshall - Palmer raindrop size distribution. Also, the aerosol depletion during the initial rain event largely influences on ion concentrations in rainwaters.

한반도 중서부 지역의 1998년 8월 5~6일 집중호우 사례에 대하여 GMS-5 IR1 밝기온도(CTT: 구름꼭대기 온도)와 AWS 지점 강우량 사이의 관계성을 조사하였다. 이 연구에서 AWS 시간 강우량일나 반시간 누적 강우량 보다 15분 누적 강우량을 이용하였을 때 연구지역의 강우강도와 강우영역이 중서부 지역 집중호우의 시간적 변화를 보다 자세히 묘사하고 있음을 발견하였다. 강우영역과 강우강도의 시계열 자료에서 일관되게 낮은 강우영역(20~25%)과 강한 강우강도(6~9mm/15 min)를 보여주는 8월 6일 0030-0430 LST 기간을 집중호우 기간으로 선택하였다. 그리고 이 집중호우 기간에 대하여 AWS 15분 강우량과 지상관측지점에 대응되는 CTT를 비교하였다. 위 비교에서 CTT와 AWS 강우량의 상용대수 값 사이의 상관계수는 -0.3으로 낮게 나타났으며, 강우가 관측된 AWS의 대부분이 분포하고 있는 CTT가 -5$0^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 강우확률은 약 30%에 불과했다. 그러나 위성영상의 위치 보정을 위하여 영상을 남쪽으로 2~3 격자 그리고 서쪽으로 3 격자 이동시켰을 때 CTT와 AWS 강우량의 상용대수 값 사이의 상관계수는 통계학적으로 의미있는 -0.46으로 나타났다. 그리고 강우가 관측된 AWS도 대부분이 보다 낮은 CTT 영역(-58$^{\circ}C$ 이하)에서 발견되었다. 그러나 이 영역에서의 강우확률은 원래 영상의 값과 비교할 때 큰 변화가 없었다. 심지어 일부 구간에서 CTT의 변화를 고려할 때도 강우확률은 CTT가 -58$^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 50~55%로 나타났다.

Relations between GMS-5 infrared brightness temperature with SSM/I retrieved rain rate are determined by a probability matching method similar to Atlas et al. and Crosson et al. For this study, coincident data sets of the GMS-5 infrared measurements and SSM/I data during two summer seasons of 1997 and 1998 are constructed. The cumulative density functions (CDFs) of infrared brightness temperature and rain rate are matched at pairs of two variables which give the same percentile contribution. The method was applied for estimating rain rate on 31 July 1998, examining heavy rainfall estimation of a flash flood event over Mt. Jiri. Results were compared with surface gauge observations run by Korean Meteorological Administration. It was noted that the method produced reasonably good quality of rain estimate, however, there was large area giving false rain due to the anvil type clouds surrounding deep convective clouds. Extensive validation against surface rain observation is currently under investigation.

In case of data transmission using the upper 10GHz frequency, rain results in attenuation of radio waves. And the most serious atmospheric effect in a satellite link is the rainfall. The attenuation of rainfall very seriously affects the quality of transmission line. Because the rain increases thermal noise and interference, and decreases the amplitude of the signal. KOWACO manages the VSAT system instead of VHF network for communication of rain and water-level data from 1998. The purpose of this system is to monitor the change of water-level and rain data during a flood duration. VHF system acquires the data by a call per a hour. But the satellite network obtains the data whenever event data occur. Thus the satellite network is more powerful than the VHF system. In study ...

Urban stormwater runoff is the one of the most extensive causes of deterioration of water quality in streams in urban areas. Especially, in the Suyeong River watershed, non-point sources from urban-residential areas are the most common cause of water pollution. Also, it has been ascertained that BOD and COD as indexes of organic matter, have limitation on management of Suyeong River's water quality. In this study, changes of organic matter properties of Suyeong River from inflow of non-point source during rainfall were investigated. Fractions of organic matters were analyzed using water samples collected at two sites (Suyeong River and Oncheon Stream) during a rain event. Variations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration by rainfall were similar to flow rate change in the river. Distribution of organic matter fraction according to change of rain duration revealed that while hydrophilic component increased at initial rainfall, the hydrophobic component was similar to change in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration. Also, the relative proportion of hydrophilic components in organic matter in river water increased, due to rainfall. Results of biodegradation of organic matters revealed that decomposition rate of organic matters during rainfall was higher than that of during a non-rainfall event.

Background: Despite its growing significance, studies on the burden of disease associated with natural disasters from the perspective of public health were few. This study aimed at estimating the national burden of disease associated with typhoons and torrential rains in Korea. Methods: During the period of 2002-2012, 11 typhoons and five torrential rains were selected. Mortality and morbidities were defined as accentual death, injury and injury-related infection, and mental health. Their incidences were estimated from National Health Insurance Service. Case-crossover design was used to define the disaster-related excess mortality and morbidity. Disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) were directly assessed from excess mortality and morbidity. Results: The burden of disease from typhoons increased with the intensity, with 107.7, 30.6, and 36.6 DALYs per 100,000 per event for strong, moderate, and weak typhoons, respectively. Burden of disease from torrential rains were 56.9, 52.8, and 26.4 DALYs per 100,000 per event for strong, moderate, and weak episodes, respectively. Mental disorders contributed more years lived with disability (YLDs) than did injuries in most cases, but the injury-induced YLDs associated with strong typhoon and torrential rain were higher than those of lower-intensity. The elderly was the most vulnerable to most types of disaster and storm intensities, and males younger than 65 years were more vulnerable to a strong torrential rain event. Conclusion: The intensity of torrential rain or typhoon was the strongest determinant of the burden of disease from natural disasters in Korea. Population vulnerable may vary depending on the nature and strength of the disasters.
