  • Temperature variations, and carbon dioxide and methane concentrations are summarized during the past 400,000 years. Atmospheric temperature varied approximately within $10^{\circ}C$ during the past 400,000 years. Most of the time during the past 400,000 years, temperature was lower than today except 410000, 320000, 250000, and 125000 years ago. Temperature was slightly higher or at least similar to today during the time period of 410000. 320000, 250000, and 125000 years ago. The carbon dioxide concentration varied between 180 and 300 ppm, and the methane concentration varied between 40 and 700ppb. The present atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide is 375 ppm and methane is 1750 ppb. Temperature was 5-$7^{\circ}C$ lower than today during the Last Glacial Maximum(18,000 years ago) and the Younger Dryas(10,000 years ago). Temprature was varied within $1^{\circ}C$ during the past 10,000 years. Especially Middle Holocene Climatic Optimum(6,000 years ago), Medieval Warm Period (500-1,000 years ago), and Little Ice Age(100-500 year ago) were global climatic events. In general, mechanism for the Middle Holocene Climatic Optimum, Medical Warm Period, and Little Ice Age can be explained by the solar insulation, however their exact mechnism is not well known. Carbon dioxide concentration during the past 400,000 years never reached the current value of 375 ppm. Furthermore, the current methane concentration never reached during the past 20Ma. However, current temperature value has happened several times during the past 400,000 years. The implication of this is unsolved question so far. This should be challenged in the near future.

  • Seasonal changes of topograpy, sediment grain size and accumulation rate on the Gomso-Bay tidal flat(Fig. 1), west coast of Korea, have studied in order to understand the seasonal accumulation pattern and preservation potential of tidal-flat sediments. Seasonal levelings across the tidal flat show that the landward movement of both intertidal sand shoals and cheiers accelerates during the winter and typhoon period, but it almost stops in summer when mud deposition is instead predominant on the middle to upper tidal flat. Seasonal variations of mean grain size were largest on the upper part of middle tidal flat where summer mud layers were eroded during the winter and typhoon periods(Fig. 2). Measurements of accululation depths from sea floor to basal plate reveal that accumulation rates were seasonally controlled according to the elevation of tidal-flat surface(Table 1) : the upper flat, where the accumulation rate of summer was generally higher than that of winter, was characterized by a continuous deposition throughout the entire year, whereas on the middle flat, sediment accumulations were concentrated in winter realtive to summer, and were intermittently eroded by typhoons. The lower tidal flat were deposited mostly in winter and eroded during summer typhoons. Cancores taken across the tidal flat reveal that sand-mud interlaers resulting from such seasonal changes of energy regime are preserved only in the upper part of the deposits and generally replaced by storm layers downcore(Fig. 3). Based on above results, it is suggested that the storm deposits formed by winter stors and typhoons would consist of the major part of the Gomso-Bay deposits(Fig. 4).

  • The geomorphic deformation of the alluvial fans by tectonic movement was investigated along the lineaments of the northem part of the Ulsan(Bulguksa) fault system. Based on the aerial photographs interpretation and field surveys Ulsan fault system was identified as an active reverse fault which has displaced the Quatemary fan deposits. Buguksa fault system strikes for the direction of NW-SE and N-S. These two lineaments of active fault are crossing at Jinty village in Gyeongju city and the fault plane forms here almost vertical dip. The lateral pressures from the two directions have possibly influenced on the formation of the vertical dip at jinty villagy. It should be resulted from that the two pressures responsible for the active reverse fault at which the one with the NW-SE strike thrusts the hanging wall of Tohamsan block southwestward and the other pressure with the N-S strike thrusts it westward over the foot wall of the fan deposits. The marine oxygen isotope stage 8(0.30-0.25 Ma. BP) and stage 6(0.20-0.14 Ma. BP) are presumed to be the ages of high and middle surfaces of the alluvial fan, repectively. The vertical displacements on the high surfaces along the Bulguksa fault system are about 1.05 m at Ha-Dong, 9.5-10.5 m at Jinhyun-Dong, and about 10 m high at Jinty village. And the vertical displacement on the middle surface was measured about 6 m high at Ha-Dong. The average slip rate of vertical displacements is calculated about 0.03-0.43 mm/y.

  • 최근 생활 공간 상에서 공간 정보의 활용 요구가 증대되면서 GIS의 상업적 가치가 증대되고 있다. 또한 GIS는 전문 시스템이 아닌 일반 사용자가 접근할 수 있고, 다양한 콘텐츠와 결합된 GIS 맵 데이터를 서비스하는 통합정보시스템으로 확장되고 있다. 그러나 GIS 맵 데이터의 불법 복제 및 유통이 증가하고 있는 추세이나, GIS 맵 데이터의 저작권 보호 기술은 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 GIS 맵 데이터의 저작권 보호를 위한 폴리라인 워터마킹 방법을 제시한다. 제안한 방법에서는 GIS의 국내 표준 데이터를 분석한 다음, 폴리라인 구성 요소간의 거리를 이용하여 워터마크를 적응적으로 삽입한다. 실험 결과로부터 제안한 방법이 다양한 기학학적 공격에 강인하며, 또한 비가시성이 우수함을 확인하였다.

  • 광섬유 센서 기술은 기존의 상용 센서의 어려움을 극복할 수 있어 전자기학 잡음과 전기 쇼크의 영향이 강한 폭발환경에서도 충분히 사용이 가능하다. 최근 이러한 장점들로 인해 여러 종류의 광섬유 센서들이 활발히 연구 개발되고 있다. 또한 비파괴검사/평가 분야로써 구조 건전성 감시를 위한 광섬유 센서의 다양한 적용 연구 분야가 존재한다. 그러나 로드셀과 같은 종류의 센서들은 상대적으로 상용화가 미흡한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 광섬유 브래그 격자 센서를 사용한 광섬유 로드셀을 보여준다. 본 로드셀의 형상은 링크타입이고, 세 개의 광섬유 브래그 격자 센서를 사용하여 세 지점의 변형률을 각기 측정한다 특히 이들 변형률은 온도와 같은 동상 잡음을 제거하기 위해 차동법을 사용하여 신호처리 된다. 더 나아가 본 로드셀의 감도, 선형성 그리고 해상도를 인장실험을 통해 성공적으로 검증하였다.

  • Recently, several attempts have been made to provide reasonable information on unusual severe weather phenomena such as tolerant heavy rains and very wild typhoons. Quantitative precipitation forecasts and probabilistic quantitative precipitation forecasts (QPFs and PQPFs, respectively) might be one of the most promising methodologies for early warning on the flesh floods because those diagnostic precipitation models require less computational resources than fine-mesh full-dynamics non-hydrostatic mesoscale model. The diagnostic rainfall model used in this study is the named QPM(Quantitative Precipitation Model), which calculates the rainfall by considering the effect of small-scale topography which is not treated in the mesoscale model. We examine the capability of probabilistic diagnostic rainfall model in terms of how well represented the observed several rainfall events and what is the most optimistic resolution of the mesoscale model in which diagnostic rainfall model is nested. Also, we examine the integration time to provide reasonable fine-mesh rainfall information. When we apply this QPM directly to 27 km mesh meso-scale model (called as M27-Q3), it takes about 15 min. while it takes about 87 min. to get the same resolution precipitation information with full dynamic downscaling method (called M27-9-3). The quality of precipitation forecast by M27-Q3 is quite comparable with the results of M27-9-3 with reasonable threshold value for precipitation. Based on a series of examination we may conclude that the proosed QPM has a capability to provide fine-mesh rainfall information in terms of time and accuracy compared to full dynamical fine-mesh meso-scale model.

  • Sediment samples from five stations at the Shihwa Lake sewage outfall, west coast of Korea, were collected to evaluate the effect of the outfall on benthic foraminifera. Heavy metal (Cu and Zn) polluted eastern part of the Shihwa Lake, adjacent to the Shihwa-Banwol Industrial Complexes, shows barren or nearly barren of benthic foraminifera, and the lowest number of species both at the core top and downcore. Excepting for the barren zone, pyritized benthic foraminifera abundantly occur both at the surface and downcore sediments in the western part of the Shihwa Lake, suggesting that foraminiferal disease by anoxic bacteria. Recent intrusion of pollutants from the Shihwa-Banwol Industrial Complexes and adjacent six major streams severely polluted the Shihwa Lake as shown by the low abundance (number/10 g) of benthic foraminifera, low number of A. beccarii, low species diversity, and absence of both Elphidium spp. and ostracodes at the surface sediments compared to the downcore. Except the barren zone, both pyritized and non-pyritized Ammonia beccarii occur dominantly in the surface sediments and downcore. Elphidium spp. (either pyritized or non-pyritized) do not occur in the surface sediments of whole stations. However, they occur from the entire downcore sediments except in the eastern part of Shihwa Lake. Arenaceous foraminifera do not inhabit in the heavily polluted areas as evidenced by the occurrence of relatively deep core depth (11-50 cm). Ostracodes occur at the downcore sediments, but they do not occur at the surface sediments. Ostracodes also do not occur at the heavily polluted areas in the eastern part of the Shihwa Lake both at the surface and downcore sediments, indicating that the abundance of ostracodes also can be used for a pollution indicator.

  • Inorganic geochemical and mineralogical analyses from the trench sediments of the Hwayang wetland were carried out to verify the wet/dry conditions during 6000 - 5000 yr BP and abnormal event of 6300 yr BP of Korean west coast. Lithostratigraphy, mineralogy and major element concentrations of the sediments of the trench indicate that during 6000 - 5000 yr BP, a wet/dry conditions might be repeated at an interval of 200 years. Carbonate minerals precipitated with the decrease of water depth in the lake or wetland after about 6000 yr BP. On the other hand, the sediments coarser in mean grain size and larger in standard deviation were corresponded with periods of 6300 yr BP and 6230 yr BP. Especially, such a feature of grain size distribution of 6300 yr BP appears in other wetlands situated in the west coast, e.g., Hwangsan wetland and Cheollipo coastal wetland. During the period, the coarse sediments seem to have been delivered by a high energy like storming.

  • 지구크기에 대한 최초의 정확한 측정은 기원전 230년, 헬레니즘의 과학자인, 에라토스테네스 (276-195 B.C.)에 의하여 이루어졌다. 역사적으로 수학적 추상화는 유럽의 고대 그리스인의 천재성을 보여주는 좋은 예이다. 그 당시에는 상상하기 어려운 태양이 멀리 떨어져 있기에 태양광선이 평행하게 지구에 입사한다는 전제를 요구하는, 논리적이고 과학적인 기법의 에라토스테네스의 과학적 방법의 성공이었다. 중요한 것은 간단한 수학적 비례식을 성립하기 위해서는 지구가 둥글고, 광선이 지구에 나란하게 들어온다는 가정이 필요하였다. 즉 천상으로부터 지상으로 유클리드 기학학이 연결된다는 내용이다. 그것은 최초로 태양중심을 주장한 아리스타쿠스의 제안을 받아들여야 했고, 아리스토텔레스의 자연관인 우주는 아름답고 우아하다는 사상에 기반을 두어 지구는 구처럼 대칭적이라는 것이다. 우리는 이러한 가정들을 현대가 아닌 그 당시 어떻게 정당화 했는지를 탐색하는 것이다. 또한 실험의 미적 관점에서 에라토스테네스의 지구측정의 중요한 특징은 단순성에 있다는 것을 강조하는 것이다.
