Abstract

We analyzed the meteorological and radiation characteristics of Seoul metropolitan area using data from energy flux towers that were installed and operated by the Weather Information Service Engine (WISE). The meteorological and radiation variables included temperature, pressure, wind speed, wind direction, relative humidity, surface temperature, rainfall amount, upward and downward solar radiation, upward and downward longwave radiation, albedo and emissivity from 14 energy flux stations located in the Seoul metropolitan area from July 2016 to July 2017. According to the monthly data during the period, the albedo is low and emissivity is high at the Jungnang station in the urban and opposite at Bucheon station in the suburban area. For a station in natural state, the albedo was higher than urban stations because solar radiation reflects effectively. Relatively high temperatures were shown at stations located in urban area with low albedo and high emissivity, in general. However, temperature was high at Gajwa and Ttukseom stations, the albedo was relatively high due to the station environment surrounded by glass wall buildings and the Han river. In the station located in suburban area, both emissivity and temperature were low. Among these stations, Bucheon station had the highest emissivity values because the surface temperature was relatively lower than that of the suburban area. As a result, the albedo decreased and the emissivity increased at stations in urban areas. Additionally, Seoul metropolitan area had less than $100Wm^{-2}$ of net radiation, which implied that radiation energy could be absorbed in the atmosphere.

차세대도시농림융합기상사업단의 에너지수지타워 관측자료를 이용하여 수도권 기상과 복사특성에 대하여 분석하였다. 서울 수도권에 위치한 총 14개 에너지수지타워의 기온, 풍속, 상대습도, 지표면 온도, 강수량, 단파 및 장파 복사량과 복사관측자료를 이용하여 산출한 알베도와 방출률을 분석하였다. 월별 자료에 따르면, 도시에 위치한 중랑지점에서 알베도는 낮고 방출률은 높은 특성을 나타냈고 교외지역인 부천지점에서는 반대의 특성이 나타났다. 자연적인 지표상태에서는 태양복사에너지를 효과적으로 반사하여 대부분 중랑지점보다 알베도가 높게 나타났다. 연 평균 기온이 비교적 높게 나타난 지점들은 서울 도심에 위치하고 있었으며, 알베도가 대체적으로 낮게 분포되었다. 가좌지점과 뚝섬지점은 관측 기온이 높았지만, 관측소 주변 유리벽 건물 및 한강으로 둘러싸인 환경으로 알베도가 비교적 높게 나타났다. 교외지역에 위치하고, 기온이 낮았던 지점들은 대체로 낮은 방출률을 나타냈다. 그 중 부천지점에서는 다소 높은 방출률이 나타났는데, 이는 관측지점 주변이 논과 밭으로 구성되어 있어 교외지역의 관측지점보다 지표면 온도가 상대적으로 낮게 관측되었기 때문이다. 결과적으로 도심지일수록 알베도는 감소하고, 방출률은 증가하는 경향을 확인할 수 있다. 또한, 서울 지역의 순 복사량이 $100Wm^{-2}$ 이하로 나타나 에너지가 대기 중에 흡수된 것으로 볼 수 있다.
