제주는 농업과 관광이 절대적 비중이므로 강수에 대한 예측/분석은 다른 지역보다 더 중요한 요소로 작용한다. 현재 제주도의 강수 예측은 기상위성을 통해 얻어지는 관측데이터에 수치모델을 이용하나, 다른 지역보다 강수 현상에 대한 변화가 다양하므로 기존의 일반적인 수치모델을 그대로 적용하여 강수 예측/분석을 하기는 쉽지 않고 만족할만한 결과를 얻기가 어렵다. 따라서 제주지역에 맞는 새로운 제주 예측/분석 방법이 연구돼야 할 것이다. 본 논문에서는 합성곱신경망 (Convolution Neural Network, CNN) 기반의 텍스처(Texture) 분석기법을 이용한 제주 강수패턴 분석 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 기상위성에서 획득한 제주도 영역에 대한 수증기영상과 지역의 온도정보를 텍스처 영상으로 변환한 후, 변환된 영상들을 합성곱신경망을 이용하여 강수 여부를 분석하는 방법이다. 제안한 방법을 구현하고 실험을 통하여 제안된 방법의 유효성을 보인다.

The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission(TRMM) is a United States-Japan project for rain measurement from space. The first spaceborne Precipitation Radar(PR) has been installed aboard the TRMM satellite. The ground based validation of the TRMM satellite observations was conducted by TRMM science team through a Global Validation Program(GVP) consisted of 10 or more ground validation sites throughout the tropics. However, TRMM radar should always be validated and assessed against reference data to be used in Korean Peninsula because the rainrates measured with satellite varies by time and space. We have analyzed errors in the comparison of rainrates measured with the TRMM/PR and the ground-based instrument i.e. Automatic Weather System(AWS) by means of statistical methods. Preliminary results show that the near surface rainrate of TRMM/PR are highly correlated with ground measurements especially for the very deep convective rain clouds, though the correlation is changed according to the type and amount of precipitating clouds. Results also show that TRMM/PR instrument is inclined to underestimate the rainrate on the whole over Korea than the AWS measurement for the cases of heavy rainfall.

The effects of hydro-meteorological and surface variables on the frequency of Asian dust events (FAE) were investigated using ground station and satellite-based data. Present weather codes 7, 8, and 9 derived from surface synoptic observations (SYNOP)were used for counting FAE. Surface wind speed (SWS), air temperature (Ta), relative humidity (RH), and precipitation were analyzed as hydro-meteorological variables for FAE. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), land surface temperature (LST), and snow cover fraction (SCF) were used to consider the effects of surface variables on FAE. The relationships between FAE and hydro-meteorological variables were analyzed using Z-score and empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis. Although all variables expressed the change of FAE, the degrees of expression were different. SWS, LST, and Ta (indices applicable when Z-score was < 0) explained about 63.01, 58.00, and 56.17% of the FAE,respectively. For NDVI, precipitation, and RH, Asian dust events occurred with a frequency of about 55.38, 67.37, and 62.87% when the Z-scores were > 0. EOF analysis for the FAE showed the seasonal cycle, change pattern, and surface influences related to dryness condition for the FAE. The intensity of SWS was the main cause for change of FAE, but surface variables such as LST, SCF, and NDVI also were expressed because wet surface conditions suppress FAE. These results demonstrate that not only SWS and precipitation, but also surface variables, are important and useful precursors for monitoring Asian dust events.

This paper presents the applications of spatial interpolation and assimilation methods for satellite and ground meteorological data, including temperature, relative humidity, and precipitation in regions of Vietnam. In this work, Universal Kriging is used for spatially interpolating ground data and its interpolated results are assimilated with corresponding satellite data to anticipate better gridded data. The input meteorological data was collected from 98 ground weather stations located all over Vietnam; whereas, the satellite data consists of the MODIS Atmospheric Profiles product (MOD07), the ASTER Global Digital Elevation Map (ASTER DEM), and the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) in six years. The outputs are gridded fields of temperature, relative humidity, and precipitation. The empirical results were evaluated by using the Root mean square error (RMSE) and the mean percent error (MPE), which illustrate that Universal Kriging interpolation obtains higher accuracy than other forms of Kriging; whereas, the assimilation for precipitation gradually reduces RMSE and significantly MPE. It also reveals that the accuracy of temperature and humidity when employing assimilation that is not significantly improved because of low MODIS retrieval due to cloud contamination.

본 논문에서는 전파강수계의 운영제어 및 자료처리를 위한 통신 및 자료처리 전략을 개발하였다. 전파강수계는 24GHz 대역의 이중편파 관측을 통하여 반경 1km 이내의 강수장을 산출하고 최종적으로 관측지역내의 면적강수를 산출하고자 하는 소형 시스템이다. 소형 시스템의 특성상 시스템 내의 제한된 자원을 활용하되 정확한 강수측정을 위한 방안이 고려되어야 하고 무인운영 및 원격 관리를 목적으로 하기 때문에 네트워크의 사용도 최소화해야 할 필요가 발생한다. 이러한 제한 사항의 극복을 위하여 자료의 품질관리 측면에서는 비기상 에코의 제거를 위해서 퍼지 논리(Fuzzy logic)을 이용한 품질관리 기법을 적용하였고, 강수강도 산출을 위해서 다양한 강수강도 추정식을 활용한 강수장 가중합성 전략을 개발하였다. 또한 가변 통신데이터를 이용하여 전파강수계와 원격지 관리 컴퓨터간의 통신량을 최소화하는 전략을 개발하였다. 이러한 소프트웨어 자료처리 전략개발을 통해 원격지에 설치되어 운영될 전파강수계를 안정적으로 운영할 수 있는 통신 및 자료처리 시스템을 개발할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

In this study, we assessed meteorological and agricultural drought based on the SPI(Standardized Precipitation Index), SMP(Soil Moisture Percentile), and SMDI(Soil Moisture Deficit Index) indices using satellite-based TRMM(Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission)/GPM(Global Precipitation Measurement) images at the province of Chungcheongbuk-do. The long-term(2000-2015) TRMM/GPM precipitation data were used to estimate the SPI values. Then, we estimated the spatially-/temporally-distributed soil moisture values based on the near-surface soil moisture data assimilation scheme using the TRMM/GPM and MODIS(MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) images. Overall, the SPI value was significantly affected by the precipitation at the study region, while both the precipitation and land surface condition have influences on the SMP and SMDI values. But the SMP index showed the relatively extreme wet/dry conditions compared to SPI and SMDI, because SMP only calculates the percentage of current wetness condition without considering the impacts of past wetness condition. Considering that different drought indices have their own advantages and disadvantages, the SMDI index could be useful for evaluating agricultural drought and establishing efficient water management plans.

본 연구의 목적은 위성의 밝기온도를 기반으로 한 정량적 강우량 추정기법의 개선을 위함이다. 우리나라 여름철 강우사례를 이용하여 강우추정을 위한 비선형 관계식을 개선하였다. 분석을 위해 레이더 자료로 기상청 기상레이더 관측망의 고도 1.5 km와 CMAX 반사도 합성자료를 사용하였으며, 위성자료는 천리안 위성의 가시, 적외, 수증기 채널의 자료를 이용하였다. 새롭게 도출된 알고리즘은 A-E method, CRR v4.0 analytic function의 결과와 비교를 하였다. 검증을 위해 우리나라 ASOS에서 관측한 지상강우량 자료를 사용하였다. 공간검증을 위해 검증지수로 POD, FAR, CSI를 계산하였으며 각각 0.67, 0.76, 0.21로 나타났다. 정량적 강우검증을 위해 MAE와 RMSE를 계산하였으며 각각 2.49, 6.18 mm/h였다. A-E에 비하여 정량적인 오차가 줄어들었으며 CRR에 비하여 공간적인 정확도가 증가하였다. 개선한 관계식을 적용한 방법이 두 알고리즘의 부족한 부분을 보완할 수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 개선한 관계식을 통해 강우를 추정하는 방법은 복잡한 알고리즘을 거치지 않고 짧은 시간에 강우추정이 가능함으로써 현업용 실시간 초단기 예보에 활용될 수 있다.

Harmful algal blooms (HAB) caused by the dominant species Cochlodinium polykrikoides (C. polykrikoides) appear in the South Sea of Korea and are particularly present in summer and fall seasons. Environmental factors such as water temperature, weather conditions (air temperature, cloud cover, sunshine, precipitation and wind) influence on the initiation and subsequent development of HAB. The purpose of this research was to study spatial and temporal variations of HAB in the Yeosu area using environmental (oceanic and meteorological) and satellite data. Chlorophyll-a concentrations were calculated using Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) images by an Ocean Chlorophyll 4 (OC4) algorithm, and HAB were estimated using the Red tide index Chlorophyll Algorithm (RCA). We also used the surface velocity of sequential satellite images applying the Maximum Cross Correlation method to detect chlorophyll-a movement. The results showed that the water temperature during HAB occurrences in August 2002-2008 was $19.4-30.2^{\circ}C$. In terms of the frequency of the mean of cell density of C. polykrikoides, the cell density of the HAB found at low (<300 cells/ml), medium (300-1000 cells/ml), and high (>1000 cells/ml) levels were 27.01%, 37.44%, and 35.55%, respectively. Meteorological data for 2002-2008 showed that the mean air temperature, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and sunshine duration were $22.39^{\circ}C$, 6.54 mm/day, 3.98 m/s (southwesterly), and 1-11.7 h, respectively. Our results suggest that HAB events in the Yeosu area can be triggered and extended by heavy precipitation and massive movement of HAB from the East China Sea. Satellite images data from July to October 2002-2006 showed that the OC4 algorithm generally estimated high chlorophyll-a concentration ($2-20\;mg/m^3$) throughout the coastal area, whereas the RCA estimated concentrations at $2-10\;mg/m^3$. The surface velocity of chlorophyll-a movement from sequential satellite images revealed the same patterns in the direction of the Tsushima Warm Current.

Remote sensing techniques using satellites or the scanning weather radars depend mostly on the presence of clouds or precipitation, and leave the extensive regions of clear air unobserved. But wind profilers provide the most direct measurements of mesoscale vertical air motion in the troposphere, even in the context of heavy precipitation. In this paper, the precipitation events during the Changma period was classified into 4 precipitation types - stratiform, mixed stratiform/ convective, deep convective, and shallow convective. The parameters for the classification of analysis are the vertical structure of reflectivity, Doppler velocity, and spectral width measured with the wind profiler at Haenam for a three-year period (2003-2005). In addition, the synoptic fields and total amount of precipitation were analyzed using the Global Final Analyses (FNL) data and the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) data. During the Changma period, the results show that the stratiform type was dominant under the moist-neutral atmosphere in 2003, whereas the deep convective type was under the moist unstable condition in 2004. The stratiform type was no less popular than the deep convective type among four seasons because the moist neutral layer was formed by the convergence between the upper-level jet and the low-level jet, and by the moisture transport along the western rim of the North Pacific subtropical anticyclone.

Real-time rainfall monitoring is of great practical importance over the highly populated Indochina area, which is prone to natural disasters, in particular in association with rainfall. With the goal of d etermining near real-time half-hourlyrain estimates from satellite, the three-layer, artificial neural networks (ANN) approach was used to train the brightness temperatures at 6.7, 11, and $12-{\mu}m$ channels of the Japanese geostationary satellite MTSAT against passive microwavebased rain rates from Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) and TRMM Precipitation Radar (PR) data for the June-September 2005 period. The developed model was applied to the MTSAT data for the June-September 2006 period. The results demonstrate that the developed algorithm is comparable to the PERSIANN (Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks) results and can be used for flood monitoring across the Indochina area on a half-hourly time scale.
