Thus, a method to more scientifically estimate the extreme event is required. This paper suggests a method to estimate the extreme precipitation in Korea using a regional climate model. First, several historical extreme events are identified and the most extreme event of Typhoon Rusa (2002) is selected. Second, the selected event is reconstructed through the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, one of the Regional Climate Models (RCMs). Third, the reconstructed event is maximized by adjusting initial and boundary conditions. Finally, the Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP) is obtained. The WRF could successfully simulate the observed precipitation in terms of spatial and temporal distribution (R2 = 0.81). The combination of the WRF Single-Moment (WSM 6-class graupel scheme (of microphysics), the Betts-Miller-Janjic scheme (of cumulus parameterization) and the Mellor-Yamada-Janjic Turbulent Kinetic Energy (TKE) scheme (of planetary boundary layer) was determined to be the best combination to reconstruct Typhoon Rusa.

  • Prediction of a Typhoon Track Using a Generative Adversarial Network And
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Prediction of a typhoon track using a generative adversarial network and satellite images Received: 25 September 2018 Mario Rüttgers , Sangseung Lee , Soohwan Jeon & Donghyun You Accepted: 29 March 2019 Tracks of typhoons are predicted using a generative adversarial network (GAN) with satellite images Published: xx xx xxxx as inputs. Time series of satellite images of typhoons which occurred in the Korea Peninsula in the past are used to train the neural network. The trained GAN is employed to produce a 6-hour-advance track of a typhoon for which the GAN was not trained. The predicted track image of a typhoon favorably identifes the future location of the typhoon center as well as the deformed cloud structures. Errors between predicted and real typhoon centers are measured quantitatively in kilometers. An averaged error of 95.6 km is achieved for tested 10 typhoons. Predicting sudden changes of the track in westward or northward directions is identifed as a challenging task, while the prediction is signifcantly improved, when velocity felds are employed along with satellite images. Every year tropical cyclones cause death and damage in many places around the world. Cyclones are formed when water at the sea surface becomes warm, evaporates, and rises in a form of clouds, and while it cools down, the con- densation releases strong energy in a form of winds. Rotation of the earth gives a cyclone its spinning motion. At the center usually a hole forms, which is called an eye of the cyclone. At the eye, the pressure is low and energetic clouds and winds get attracted.

  • Statistical Considerations of Pressure Oscillations Occurring Near the Typhoon Center
    Statistical Considerations of Pressure Oscillations Occurring near the Typhoon Center by Sadao Yoshizumi Meteorological Research Institute, Tokyo (Received November 30, 1973) Abstract The aim of this paper is to make a statistical investigation of the pressure oscillations occurring near the center of a typhoon. An analysis of the barograms recorded on the Southwest Islands, Japan, during the decade from 1956 to 1965 shows that the occurrence frequency of the oscillations with the maximum double amplitude exceeding 3 mb is approximately 10%, and the frequency of those with the maximum amplitude of 2 mb or larger is about 30%. In order to get a clue as to the relationship of pressure oscillations to an elliptical eye, the reported frequency of an elliptical eye is also examined in this paper, based on the data obtained from flight observations. The reported frequency of an elliptical eye is estimated to be about 10%, and is considered to be fairly independent of the central pressure. Considerable agreement of the occurrence frequencies of both pressure oscillations and an elliptical eye suggests that pressure oscillations are closely related with an elliptical eye. From an examination of reports on an eye shape in cases where pressure oscillations were recorded, it is inferred that some of oscillations are associated with an elliptical eye. 1. Introduction It is well known that a barogram during the passage of a tropical cyclone often shows oscillatory pressure variations with various periods, superimposed on the V-shaped trace accompanied by the storm system. Included among the pressure oscillations are pressure ripples with the period of 10 min to one hour and gusty oscillations with the period of 1 sec to 5 min (FUJITA, 1952).

  • Hindcasting of Storm Surge by Typhoon 0314(Maemi) in Masan Bay, Korea
    Hindcasting of Storm Surge by Typhoon 0314(Maemi) in Masan Bay, Korea See-Whan Kang1;Kicheon Jun1; Kwang-Soon Park1; Sung-Dae Han2 1 Coastal Engineering Research Division, Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute Ansan P.O. Box 29, Gyeonggi, Korea e-mail: [email protected] ; [email protected]; [email protected] 2 Department of Civil Engineering, Kyoungnam University 449 Wolyong, Masan, Kyoungnam, Korea e-mail: [email protected] Typhoon 0314(Maemi) landed on the south coast of Korea at 21LST, 12 September, 2003, where its storm surge accompanying with high waves and astronomical high tide induced the most severe coastal disaster in Korea. Especially Masan City facing Masan Bay had the worst damages by the storm-surge flooding with the maximum surge height of ~2.3m recorded at Masan Port. In order to obtain the design surge-heights for the coastal structures in Masan City, a hindcasting study of storm surge for Typhoon 0314 were conducted using a fine-scaled regional surge model which was connected to the larger scaled surge models by a nesting grid system. The sea surface pressure and wind fields were computed by a primitive vortex wind model to obtain the input data for storm surge model simulation. The hindcasted surge heights were compared with the observed surges at Masan Port and also were compared with the surge data recorded at the major tide stations in the south coast of Korea. The result shows that the computed surges were in a good agreement with the observations. Keywords: Typhoon 0314(Maemi), storm surge, coastal disaster, Masan Bay, hindcasting, fine-scaled surge model, vortex wind model 1.

Typhoon Maemi Inflicts the Most Damage Since the Beginning of Record-keeping 5. Disaster Broadcasting by Phase & Problem Areas 6. Disaster Reduction Measures The role of KBS in disaster reduction As Korea's main public broadcasting network, KBS has been designated by the government as the host broadcaster for disaster broadcasting and, thus, swiftly delivers accurate disaster status reports to the general public in accordance with the Natural Disaster Protection Act and the Disaster Management Act in order to minimize human and property damage. In particular, KBS assumes the leading role in i) collecting various information from disaster areas; ii) receiving information and necessary facilities from disaster prevention agencies; and iii) organizing and operating joint press corps. The force of typhoon Maemi & damage to the korean peninsula The force of typhoon Maemi This season's 14th typhoon, Maemi, made landfall on the Korean peninsula on the evening of September 12th and left the greatest damage since 1904, when weather observations first began in Korea. Before Typhoon Maemi, Koreans had cited the power of Typhoon Sarah, which hit the peninsula in 1959. Now, however, Maemi has supplanted Sarah. The 1959 typhoon struck the peninsula with a central pressure of 952hPa and a maximum instantaneous wind speed of 46.9m/sec, whereas Typhoon Maemi's central pressure reached 950hPa and a maximum instantaneous wind speed of a staggering 60m/sec.

    Proceedings of the 10th Intl. Conf.on Hydroscience & Engineering, Nov. 4-7, 2012, Orlando, Florida, U.S.A. A STUDY ON SIMULATION OF FLOOD INUNDATION IN A COASTAL URBAN AREA USING A TWO-DIMENSIONAL NUMERICAL MODEL Woochang Jeong1, Jun-Whan Lee2, Yong-Sik Cho3 ABSTRACT In this study, the simulation and analysis for the inundation in a coastal urban area according to the storm surge height are carried out using a two-dimensional numerical model. The target coastal urban area considered in this study is a part of the new town of Changwon city, Gyungnam province, Korea and this area was extremely damaged due to the storm surge generated during the period of the typhoon "Maemi" in September 2003. For the purpose of the verification of the numerical model applied in this study, the simulated results are compared and analyzed with the temporal storm surge heights observed at the tide station in Masan bay and inundation traces in urban areas. Moreover, in order to investigate the influence of super typhoons possible in the future, the results simulated with the storm surge heights increased 1.25 and 1.5 times greater than those observed during the period of the typhoon "Maemi" are compared and analyzed. 1. INTRODUCTION Recent global warming has led to extreme weather conditions, and the 2007 Fourth Assessment Report of United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change predicted a temperature rise of up to 6.4oC by the end of the 21st century (IPCC, 2007) and revealed that the sea level would rise by 28~43cm. In Korea, which is surrounded by the sea on three sides, typhoons and storms have frequently caused extensive damages including coastal inundation and erosion, and destruction of coastal structures.

  • Hurricane Camille: August 1969
    P-3 Publications Original Report : © August 2018 by David Reade (P-3 Publications) Hurricane Camille: August 1969 Reconstruction of Hurricane Reconnaissance Aircraft Operations: a Timeline P-3 Publications Original Report : © August 2018 by David Reade (P-3 Publications) The Reconstruction of Hurricane Camille’s Hurricane Reconnaissance Aircraft Operations: a Timeline Camille: “A Moment of Change” The history of hurricane reconnaissance, the history of aircraft that have flown into tropical cyclones for reconnaissance, surveillance and or research purposes (since WWII), is currently unrealized – as it is represented in the public domain (the universal public record; made up of the information contained in newspapers, magazines, books and the internet). The history of hurricane reconnaissance and the aircraft involved in it is much more comprehensive and convoluted than the public domain presents; with the history of Hurricane Camille just a very small example of this perception -vs- reality of history. In 1969, despite a perceived air of business-as-usual in the Atlantic hurricane warning service and at the National Hurricane Center (NHC), one unsuspecting seasonal storm materialized in the eastern Caribbean to make it all come crashing down, and then become the impetuous of renewal, the beginning of a new era for hurricane tracking, the evolution of tropical cyclone reconnaissance and the hurricane hunting aircraft so important to it. Hurricane Camille became a turning-point in the evolutionary history of hurricane reconnaissance. In the fallout over the failures of the Atlantic hurricane warning and tracking network in the wake of the storm, due in part to the limitations and lack of capabilities attributed to the (then) various military hurricane reconnaissance aircraft assigned to fly the storm, new congressionally approved funding was appropriated to update, upgrade and improve the Atlantic hurricane warning and tracking network and especially the aircraft conducting reconnaissance flights.

O. Kim 1, B. H. Choi 2 and J. H. Yuk 3 ABSTRACT: With the recent introduction of the coupled system (ADCIRC hydrodynamic and SWAN wave model) which can run on the same unstructured mesh, allowing the physics of wave-circulation interactions to be correctly resolved in both models and all energy from deep to shallow waters to be seamlessly followed, the resulting modeling system can be used extensively for the prediction of typhoon surges and usual barotropic forecast. The result confirms the necessity to incorporate the wave-current interaction effect into coastal area in the wave-tide-surge coupled model. At the same time, effects of depth-induced wave breaking, wind field, currents and sea surface elevation in prediction of waves are included. Especially, we found that the wind wave significantly enhances the current and surge elevation. The resulting modeling system can be used for hindcasting (prediction) and forecasting the wave-tide-surge distribution in the environments with complex coastline, shallow water and fine sediment area like around Korean Peninsula. Keywords: Coupled wave-tide-surge model, unstructured mesh, the East China Sea INTRODUCTION action density spectrum, with the relative frequency (σ) The recent introduction of unstructured wave models and the wave direction (θ), as governed by the action has made nesting unnecessary and the coupled system balance equation (Booij et al.

An inundation of the sea in Lincolnshire laid under water many thousands of acres (Camden). 353 Flood in Cheshire in which 3000 people died along with thousands of cattle (Hayden). 402 Euxine Sea frozen over for 20 days (Hayden) 500 The Vandals from Poland held Western Africa, the Diocese of Africa, Visigoth (Western Goth) from Scandia held Spain, Ostrogoth (Eastern Goth) from Scandia held Italy, Germanic-Franks from Scandia held Gaul, Burgundians held Rhone river, and Celts, Germanic-Anglo-Saxon held the diocese of England. The massive migration of the Mongols, the Huns, Goth, Slav-Bulgars, and Avars westward is because of adverse weather conditions driving them from their lands . The Germanic-Danes inhabited the Danish Islands, Schonen, and later Jutland. St. Brendan (521-527) in his voyage to the northwest suggests the Celts of Ireland discovered America about this time. The Polynesian reached Hawaii and established agricultural settlements. These people had traveled 2500 miles from Island to Island. It is inconceivable that these peoples didn't reach America in the past 500 years. The Polynesians colonized Hawaii, Easter Island, and Madagascar by 500 A.D. 507 Men from Tsinngan, China report being blown across the Great Sea East to a people who speak a strange language. 508 In England, the rivers were frozen for more than two months (including Thames?).
