초록

본 연구에서 영동지역 강수 전(2016년 12월 13일) 운저 고도인근 수상체 분포를 스캐닝 라이다와 레윈존데 자료 및 구름분해모델(Cloud Resolving Storm Simulator; CReSS)의 모의 결과를 통해 분석하였다. 강수 전운저 인근에서 관측된 라이다의 연직 후방산란 신호와 평광비 프로파일은 유사한 특징을 보였다. 이를 모델의 재현 결과와 비교하였을 때, 찬 구름 내부(< 0°C)에 존재하는 운빙(ice), 눈(snow)과 운저 인근에 형성된 과냉각 수적층, 운저 아래에서 낙하하는 부착(rimed)형 눈의 존재를 관측한 결과라 판단된다. 또한, 고도에 따른 광학속성 프로파일의 변화 형태에 따라 연직으로 구간을 세분화하여 연직 수상체의 형상과 밀도에 대해 분석한 결과를 제시하였다.

The vertical distribution of hydrometeor before precipitation near the cloud base has been analyzed using a scanning lidar, rawinsonde data, and Cloud-Resolving Storm Simulator (CReSS). This study mostly focuses on 13 Desember 2016 only. The typical synoptic pattern of lake-effect snowstorm induced easterly in the Yeongdong region. Clouds generated due to high temperature difference between 850 hPa and sea surface (SST) penentrated in the Yeongdong region along with northerly and northeasterly, which eventually resulted precipitation. The cloud base height before the precipitation changed from 750 m to 1,280 m, which was in agreement with that from ceilometer at Sokcho. However, ceilometer tended to detect the cloud base 50 m ~ 100 m below strong signal of lidar backscattering coefficient. As a result, the depolarization ratio increased vertically while the backscattering coefficient decreased about 1,010 m~1,200 m above the ground. Lidar signal might be interpreted to be attenuated with the penetration depth of the cloud layer with of nonspherical hydrometeor (snow, ice cloud).
An increase in backscattering signal and a decrease in depolarization ratio occured in the layer of 800 to 1,010 m, probably being associated with an increase in non-spherical particles. There seemed to be a shallow liquid layer with a low depolarization ratio (<0.1) in the layer of 850~900 m. As the altitude increases in the 680 m~850 m, the backscattering coefficient and depolarization ratio increase at the same time. In this range of height, the maximum value (0.6) is displayed. Such a result can be inferred that the nonspherical hydrometeor are distributed by a low density. At this time, the depolarization ratio and the backscattering coefficient did not increase under observed melting layer of 680 m.
The lidar has a disadvantage that it is difficult for its beam to penetrate deep into clouds due to attenuation problem. However it is promising to distinguish hydrometeor morphology by utilizing the depolarization ratio and the backscattering coefficient, since its vertical high resolution (2.5 m) enable us to analyze detailed cloud microphysics. It would contribute to understanding cloud microphysics of cold clouds and snowfall when remote sensings including lidar, radar, and in-situ measurements could be timely utilized altogether.
