Aiming at the problem that fatigue characteristics of metal roof rely on local physical tests and lacks the cyclic load sequence matching with regional climate, this paper proposed a method of constructing the fatigue load spectrum based on integration of wind load model, measured data of long-span metal roof and climate statistical data. According to the turbulence characteristics of wind, the wind load model is established from the aspects of turbulence intensity, power spectral density and wind pressure coefficient. Considering the influence of roof configuration on wind pressure distribution, the parameters are modified through fusing the measured data with least squares method to approximate the actual wind pressure load of the roof system. Furthermore, with regards to the wind climate characteristics of building location, Weibull model is adopted to analyze the regional meteorological data to obtain the probability density distribution of wind velocity used for calculating wind load, so as to establish the cyclic wind load sequence with the attributes of regional climate and building configuration. Finally, taking a workshop's metal roof as an example, the wind load spectrum is constructed according to this method, and the fatigue simulation and residual life prediction are implemented based on the experimental data. The forecasting result is lightly higher than the design standards, consistent with general principles of its conservative safety design scale, which shows that the presented method is validated for the fatigue characteristics study and health assessment of metal roof.

The Indian summer monsoon behaved in an abnormal way in 2002 and as a result there was a large deficiency in precipitation (especially in July) over a large part of the Indian subcontinent. For the study of deficient monsoon of 2002, a recent version of the NCAR regional climate model (RegCM3) has been used to examine the important features of summer monsoon circulations and precipitation during 2002. The main characteristics of wind fields at lower level (850 hPa) and upper level (200 hPa) and precipitation simulated with the RegCM3 over the Indian subcontinent are studied using different cumulus parameterization schemes namely, mass flux schemes, a simplified Kuo-type scheme and Emanuel (EMU) scheme. The monsoon circulation features simulated by RegCM3 are compared with the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis and simulated precipitation is validated against observation from the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC). Validation of the wind fields at lower and upper levels shows that the use of Arakawa and Schubert (AS) closure in Grell convection scheme, a Kuo type and Emanuel schemes produces results close to the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis. Similarly, precipitation simulated with RegCM3 over different homogeneous zones of India with the AS closure in Grell is more close to the corresponding observed monthly and seasonal values. RegcM3 simulation also captured the spatial distribution of deficient rainfall in 2002.

본 연구에서는 ECHAM5 모델을 통하여 생산된 현재 및 A1B 미래 기후 변화 시나리오에 따른 미래기후 자료를 미 환경예측 센터의 분광모델인 RSM을 이용하여 역학적 규모축소를 수행하였다. 현재 기후 모의는 1980-2000년 기간에 대하여 수행되었으며, 미래 기후 모의는 2040-2070 기간에 대하여 CORDEX에서 제시한 동아시아 영역에서 수행되었다. RSM의 현재 기후 모의 검증을 통해 이 모델이 기후 관점에서 대기 상태를 적절히 모의함을 판단할 수 있었다. 미래 기후 모의 결과를 현재 기후 모의 결과와 비교하여 본 결과, 여름철에 열대 해양, 남아시아, 일본 부근에서 강수가 증가하였으며, 겨울철에는 서북 태평양 지역과 열대 인도양에서 강수가 증가하였고 열대 동인도양에서는 감소하였다. 동아시아 강수의 기후장에 있어서는 미래 기후가 현재와 큰 차이를 보이지 않지만 2050년 이후의 여름철 강수는 점차 증가하는 추세를 나타내고 있다. 미래 기후의 지상 온도는 현재와 비교해 볼 때 명확한 상승이 분석되었다. 대기장에 있어서는 미래 기후에서 지구 온난화에 대한 반응으로 전체적으로 온도와 지위고도장이 증가하는 변화를 나타내었으며 이에 따라 상층 기압골이 발달함을 보였다.

In this study, a dynamic modeling scheme is presented to describe the probabilistic structure of soil water and plant water stress index under stochastic precipitation conditions. The proposed model has the form of the Fokker-Planck equation, and its applicability as a model for the probabilistic evolution of the soil water and plant water stress index is investigated under a climate change scenario. The simulation results of soil water confirm that the proposed soil water model can properly reproduce the observations and show that the soil water behaves with consistent cycle based on the precipitation pattern. The simulation results of plant water stress index show two different PDF patterns according to the precipitation. The simple impact assessment of climate change to soil water and plant water stress is discussed with Korean Meteorological Administration regional climate model.

Future climate changes over East Asia are projected by anthropogenic forcing of greenhouse gases and aerosols using ECHO-G/S (ECHAM4/HOPE-G). Climate simulation in the 21st century is conducted with three standard SRES scenarios (A1B, B1, and A2) and the model performance is assessed by the 20th Century (20C3M) experiment. From the present climate simulation (20C3M), the model reproduced reliable climate state in the most fields, however, cold bias in temperature and dry bias of summer in precipitation occurred. The intercomparison among models using Taylor diagram indicates that ECHO-G/S exhibits smaller mean bias and higher pattern correlation than other nine AOGCMs. Based on SRES scenarios, East Asia will experience warmer and wetter climate in the coming 21st century. Changes of geographical patterns from the present to the future are considerably similar through all the scenarios except for the magnitude difference. The temperature in winter and precipitation in summer show remarkable increase. In spite of the large uncertainty in simulating precipitation by regional scale, we found that the summer (winter) precipitation at eastern coast (north of $40^{\circ}N$) of East Asia has significantly increased. In the 21st century, the warming over the continents of East Asia showed much more increase than that over the ocean. Hence, more enhanced (weakened) land-sea thermal contrast over East Asia in summer (winter) will cause strong (weak) monsoon. In summer, the low pressure located in East Asia becomes deeper and the moisture from the south or southeast is transported more into the land. These result in increasing precipitation amount over East Asia, especially at the coastal region. In winter, the increase (decrease) of precipitation is accompanied by strengthening (weakening) of baroclinicity over the land (sea) of East Asia.

There are variations in the temperature Held due to urban heat island and anthropogenic heating so that regional scale meteorological field is changed. Therefore we simulate and predict the regional climate change according to surface characteristics through regional meteorological model. This study investigates the regional meteorological field by urbanization that influences in local circulation system using CSU-RAMS and simulates dry deposition velocity (V$_{d}$) using PNU/DEM which includes surface characteristics (such as albedo, surface hydrology and rough-ness length etc.) with calculated meteorological field. During the summer, horizontal distributions of V$_{d}$ were simulated using CSU-RAMS and PNU/DEM at Busan metropolitan area. The estimated values of V$_{d}$ were larger in forest and agricultural areas than water areas since ozone with low water solubility is destroyed slowly at wet surface or water.water.

Polar lows are intense mesoscale cyclones that mainly occur over the sea in polar regions. Owing to their small spatial scale of a diameter less than 1000 km, simulating polar lows is a challenging task. At King Sejong station in West Antartica, polar lows are often observed. Despite the recent significant climatic changes observed over West Antarctica, adequate validation of regional simulations of extreme weather events such as polar lows are rare for this region. To address this gap, simulation results from a recent version of the Polar Weather Research and Forecasting model (Polar WRF) covering Antartic Peninsula at a high horizontal resolution of 3 km are validated against near-surface meteorological observations. We selected a case of high wind speed event on 7 January 2013 recorded at Automatic Meteorological Observation Station (AMOS) in King Sejong station, Antarctica. It is revealed by in situ observations, numerical weather prediction, and reanalysis fields that the synoptic and mesoscale environment of the strong wind event was due to the passage of a strong mesoscale polar low of center pressure 950 hPa. Verifying model results from 3 km grid resolution simulation against AMOS observation showed that high skill in simulating wind speed and surface pressure with a bias of $-1.1m\;s^{-1}$ and -1.2 hPa, respectively. Our evaluation suggests that the Polar WRF can be used as a useful dynamic downscaling tool for the simulation of Antartic weather systems and the near-surface meteorological instruments installed in King Sejong station can provide invaluable data for polar low studies over West Antartica.

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.

본 연구에서는 HadGEM2-AO 자료를 처방한 RegCM4를 이용하여 CORDEX 동아시아 영역에 대한 27년(1979-2005)간의 장기적분을 수행하였고, 기온과 강수에 대한 모의성능을 분석하였다. RegCM4는 전반적으로 기온의 공간분포, 계절 및 경년변동을 현실성 있게 잘 모의한 반면, 강수의 경우 시 공간 분포를 적절히 모의하지 못하였다. 특히, RegCM4는 동아시아 여름몬순에 의한 강수대를 위도 $30^{\circ}N$ 이하에서 정체하게 모의하면서 여름철 남한의 강수를 매우 과소하게 모의하였다. HadGEM2-AO를 적용한 RegCM4는 기온모의에서는 재분석자료를 처방한 경우와 유사한 모의성능을 보이지만, 강수모의에서는 현저히 낮은 모의성능을 보였다. 이는 여름철 남서풍을 상대적으로 저위도에 치우치게 모의하는 HadGEM2-AO의 특성이 RegCM4에 영향을 주어 동아시아 여름몬순 강수대의 발달-쇠퇴과정을 RegCM4가 적절히 모의하지 못하면서 나타난 결과로 판단된다.

기후변화를 일으키는 외부강제력이 전지구적으로 동일하게 주어지더라도 그에 따른 기후변화와 되먹임 효과는 지역마다 다르게 나타난다. 따라서 기후변화에 나타난 내부변동성 및 다른 잡음 효과로부터 지구온난화 신호를 구별하기 위한 기후변화 탐지는 전구평균뿐만 아니라 지역규모에서도 이뤄져 왔다. 본 논문은 지구온난화로 인해 미래에 전례 없는 기후가 나타나는 시기를 추정하고 그 지역적 차이를 분석함이 목적이며 이를 위해, 기후모형 자료를 이용한 기존 연구와는 달리, 관측 자료를 이용하여 내부변동성을 추정하고 미래 온도변화를 전망하였다. 전례 없는 기후 시기는 미래에 예측된 지표 온도가 과거 관측 기록에 나타난 온도 범위를 벗어나 전례 없이 따뜻한 기후가 이후로도 지속되는 시점으로 정의하였다. 1880년부터 2014년까지 관측된 지표온도 아노말리의 연평균 시계열을 이용하여 온난화 선형추세를 계산하였고, 이 추세로부터 벗어난 최대 변이 값을 내부변동성의 크기로 간주하였다. 관측 자료로 구한 온난화 선형추세와 내부변동성의 크기가 미래에도 유지된다고 전제하고 계산한 결과에 따르면, 육지에서 전례없는 기후는, 아프리카는 서쪽에서, 유라시아는 인도와 아라비아 반도 남부 등 저위도에서, 북아메리카는 캐나다 중서부와 그린란드 등 고위도에서, 남아메리카는 아마존을 포함하는 저위도에서, 남극대륙은 로스해 주변지역에서 향후 200년 이내에 비교적 빨리 나타나며, 우리나라를 포함한 동아시아 일부 지역에서도 200년 이내로 빨리 나타난다. 반면에 북유럽을 포함하는 고위도 유라시아 지역과 미국과 멕시코를 포함하는 북아메리카 중남부에서는 400년 이후에 나타난다. 해양에서는 전례 없는 기후가 인도양, 중위도 북대서양과 남대서양, 남극해 일부 해역과 남극 로스해, 북극해 일부 해역에서 200년 이내로 비교적 빨리 나타나는 반면, 내부변동성이 큰 동적도태평양, 중위도 북태평양 등의 일부 해역에서는 수천 년이 지나야 오는 곳도 있다. 즉, 전례 없는 기후시기는 육지에서는 대륙마다 서로 다른 양상을 보이고 해양에서는 온난화 추세가 큰 고위도 해역을 제외하면 내부변동성의 영향을 많이 받는다. 결론적으로 지구온난화로 인한 전례 없는 기후는 특정 시기에 공통적으로 나타나는 것이 아니라 지역에 따라 시기적으로 상당한 차이가 있다. 따라서 기후변화 대응책을 마련할 때 온난화 추세뿐만 아니라 내부변동성의 크기도 함께 고려할 필요가 있다.
