The purpose of this study is to develop snow and sea ice detection algorithm in Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) meteorological data processing system. Since COMS has only five channels, it is not affordable to use microwave or shortwave infrared data which are effective and generally used for snow detection. In order to estimate snow and sea ice coverage, combinations between available channel data(mostly visible and 3.7 ${\mu}m$) are applied to the algorithm based on threshold method. As a result, the COMS snow and sea ice detection algorithm shows reliable performance compared to MODIS products with channel limitation. Specifically, there is partial underestimation over the complicated vegetation area and overestimation over the area of high level clouds such as cirrus. Some corrections are performed by using water vapor and infrared channels to remove cloud contamination and by applying NDVI to detect more snow pixels for the underestimated area.

해빙(sea ice)은 현재 전 세계 해양 면적의 약 7%를 차지하고 있으며 계절적, 연간 변화를 보이고 주로 극지방과 고위도 지역에 나타난다. 해빙은 대규모 공간 규모에서 다양한 종류로 형성되며 석유 및 가스탐사, 기타 해양활동이 급속히 증가하는 발해해는 해양 구조물 피해 및 해상 운송, 해양 생태계에 심각한 영향을 미치기 때문에 시계열 모니터링을 통해 해빙의 면적 및 유형 분류를 분석하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 현재 고해상도 위성영상 및 현장 실측 자료를 바탕으로 해빙의 종류 및 영역에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있지만 현장 실측자료를 획득하여 해빙 모니터링에는 한계가 있다. 고해상도 광학 위성영상은 광범위에서 해빙의 유형을 육안으로 탐지하고 식별할 수 있고, 짧은 시간해상도를 갖는 해양위성인 천리안 2B호(Geostationary Ocean Color Imager-II, GOCI-II)를 이용하여 해빙 모니터링의 공백을 보완할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 고해상도 광학위성영상을 이용하여 생산된 학습자료를 기반으로 규칙기반 기계학습 모델을 훈련시키고 이를 GOCI-II 영상에서 탐지를 수행함으로써, 해빙 모니터링 활용 가능성을 알아보고자 하였다. 학습 자료는 발해(Bohai Sea)의 2021-2022년 랴오둥만(Liaodong Bay)을 대상으로 추출하였으며, GOCI-II를 활용한 Random Forest (RF) 모델을 구축하여 기존 normalized difference snow index (NDSI) 지수 기반 및 고해상도 위성영상에서 획득된 해빙 영역과 정성적 및 정량적 비교 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과 해빙의 영역을 과소평가한 NDSI 지수 기반 결과와 달리 비교적 자세한 해빙 영역을 탐지하였으며 유형별 해빙을 분류할 수 있어 해빙 모니터링이 가능함을 확인하였다. 향후 지속적인 학습 자료 및 해빙형성에 영향인자 구축을 통해 탐지 모델의 정확도를 향상시킨다면 고위도 해양 지역에서 해빙 모니터링 분야에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

아시아에서 가장 큰 칼데라 호수인 천지는 해발 약 2250 m의 백두산 정상에 위치한다. 천지는 높은 해발고도 및 바다와 인접한 환경으로 인해 1년 중 6개월 정도가 눈과 얼음으로 뒤덮여 있다. 천지의 수원은 대부분 지하수로부터 유입되기 때문에 수온과 백두산의 화산활동이 밀접한 관련이 있다. 하지만 2000년대에 들어서며 백두산에 많은 화산활동이 관측되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유럽우주국(European Space Agency: ESA)에서 제공하는 Sentinel-1 위성 영상자료를 활용하여 백두산의 겨울철 생성되는 얼음의 면적을 분석하였다. Sentinel-1 위성의 후방산란 영상에서 얼음의 면적을 산출하기 위해 질감 분석 기법을 활용하여 2개의 편파영상에서 20개의 Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM) 레이어를 생성했다. 면적 산출에 사용된 방법은 GLCM 레이어를 Support Vector Machine (SVM) 알고리즘으로 분류하여 영상에서 얼음의 면적을 산출했다. 또한 산출된 면적은 삼지연 기상관측소에서 획득된 기온자료와 상관관계를 분석하였다. 본 연구는 본격적인 장기간의 시계열 분석에 앞서 얼음의 면적을 산출하는 새로운 방법에 대한 대안을 제시하는 근거로서 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

The observations on climate change show a clear increase in the temperature of the Earth's surface and the oceans, a reduction in the land snow cover, and melting of the sea ice and glaciers. The effects of climate change are likely to include more variable weather, heat waves, increased mean temperature, rains, flooding and droughts. The threat of climate change and global warming on human and animal health is now recognized as a global issue. This presentation is described an overview of the latest scientific knowledge on the impact of climate change on zoonotic diseases. Climate strongly affects agriculture and livestock production and influences animal diseases, vectors and pathogens, and their habitat. Global warming are likely to change the temporal and geographical distribution of infectious diseases, including those that are vector-borne such as West Nile fever, Rift Valley fever, Japanese encephalitis, bluetongue, malaria and visceral leishmaniasis, and other diarrheal diseases. The distribution and prevalence of vector-borne diseases may be the most significant effect of climate change. The impact of climate change on the emergence and re-emergence of animal diseases has been confirmed by a majority of countries. Emerging zoonotic diseases are increasingly recognized as a global and regional issue with potential serious human health and economic impacts and their current upward trends are likely to continue. Coordinated international responses are therefore essential across veterinary and human health sectors, regions and countries to control and prevent emerging zoonoses. A new early warning and alert systems is developing and introducing for enhancing surveillance and response to zoonotic diseases. And international networks that include public health, research, medical and veterinary laboratories working with zoonotic pathogens should be established and strengthened. Facing this challenging future, the long-term strategies for zoonotic diseases that may be affected by climate change is need for better prevention and control measures in susceptible livestock, wildlife and vectors in Korea. In conclusion, strengthening global, regional and national early warning systems is extremely important, as are coordinated research programmes and subsequent prevention and control measures, and need for the global surveillance network essential for early detection of zoonotic diseases.

The IPCC 5th Assessment Report (Climate Change 2013: The Physical Science Basis) was accepted at the 36th Session of the IPCC on 26 September 2013 in Stockholm, Sweden. It consists of the full scientific and technical assessment undertaken by Working Group I. This comprehensive assessment of the physical aspects of climate change puts a focus on those elements that are relevant to understand past, document current, and project future of climate change. The assessment builds on the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report and the recent Special Report on Managing the Risk of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change Adaptation. The assessment covers the current knowledge of various processes within, and interactions among, climate system components, which determine the sensitivity and response of the system to changes in forcing, and they quantify the link between the changes in atmospheric constituents, and hence radiative forcing, and the consequent detection and attribution of climate change. Projections of changes in all climate system components are based on model simulations forced by a new set of scenarios. The report also provides a comprehensive assessment of past and future sea level change in a dedicated chapter. The primary purpose of this Technical Summary is to provide the link between the complete assessment of the multiple lines of independent evidence presented in the main report and the highly condensed summary prepared as Policy makers Summary. The Technical Summary thus serves as a starting point for those readers who seek the full information on more specific topics covered by this assessment. Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, and since the 1950s, many of the observed changes are unprecedented over decades to millennia. The atmosphere and ocean have warmed, the amounts of snow and ice have diminished, sea level has risen, and the concentrations of greenhouse gases have increased. Total radiative forcing is positive, and has led to an uptake of energy by the climate system. The largest contribution to total radiative forcing is caused by the increase in the atmospheric concentration of $CO_2$ since 1750. Human influence on the climate system is clear. This is evident from the increasing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere, positive radiative forcing, observed warming, and understanding of the climate system. Continued emissions of greenhouse gases will cause further warming and changes in all components of the climate system. Limiting climate change will require substantial and sustained reductions of greenhouse gas emissions. The in-depth review for past, present and future of climate change is carried out on the basis of the IPCC 5th Assessment Report.
