It is required to estimate reliable design floods for hydraulic structures in order to respond more effectively to recent climate change. In this study, differences of design floods that were estimated the flood frequency analysis (FFA) and the design rainfall-runoff analysis (DRRA) were analyzed. In Korea, due to lack of measured flood data, the DRRA method is used in practice to determine the design floods. However, assuming the design floods estimated by the FFA as true values, the DRRA method over estimated the design floods by 79%. Thus, this study proposed a practical method to estimated design flood in ungauaged watersheds through regressive adjustment of flood quantiles estimated from the DRRA method. To this end, after investigating the differences between design floods acquired from the FFA and the DRRA method, nonlinear regression analyses were performed to develop the adjustment formulas for 8 large-dam watersheds. Applying the adjustment formula, the accuracy was improved by 65.0% on average over the DRRA method. In addition, when considering the watershed size, the adjustment formula increases the accuracy by 2.1%p on average over when not considering the watershed size.

This study was conducted to establish an HPLC analysis method for determination of marker compounds as part of materials standardization for development of health functional food materials from pear pomace. The quantitative determination method of caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid as marker compounds of pear pomace extract (PPE) was optimized by HPLC analysis using a C18 column ($5{\times}250mm$, $5{\mu}m$) with a 0.2% elution gradient of acetic acid and methanol as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min and detection wavelength of 330 nm. The HPLC/UV method was applied successfully to the quantification of marker compounds in PPE after validation of the method with linearity, accuracy, and precision. The method showed high linearity of the calibration curve with a coefficient of correlation ($R^2$) of 0.9999, and limit of detection and limit of quantification were $1.14{\mu}g/mL$ (caffeic acid) and $1.61{\mu}g/mL$ (chlorogenic acid) as well as $4.9{\mu}g/mL$ (caffeic acid) and $4.9{\mu}g/mL$ (chlorogenic acid), respectively. Relative standard deviation values from intra- and inter-day precision were less than 3.1% (caffeic acid) and 4.0% (chlorogenic acid), respectively. Recovery rates of caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid at 12.5, 25, and $50{\mu}g/mL$ were 93.66~106.32% and 97.33~105.68%, respectively. An optimized method for extraction of caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid in PPE was established through diverse extraction conditions, and the validation indicated that the method is very useful for evaluation of marker compounds in PPE to develop a health functional food material.

첨두유량이 연속적으로 발생하므로 인하여 수리구조물의 파괴에 영향을 끼치는 설계홍수량의 추정을 위해 본 연구에서는 제I보에 이어 2차적으로 부분 기간 계열인 금강, 영산강 및 섬진강 수계 6개 유역의 비년 초과치를 중심으로 하여 변환법인 SMEMAX법, 멱변화(Power Transformation) 및 2단계 멱변환(Two Step Power Transformation, TSPT)법에 의해 빈도분포의 정규화를 시도하고 이들에 대한 정규화 효율성의 비교분석과 설계홍수량 유도를 위한 변환법별 적합도 검정을 수행하였다. 왜곡분포의 정규화 시도는 제I보의 결과와 마찬가지로 SMAMAX 및 Power변환법에서는 빈도분포의 정규화가 미흡하였으나 2단계 멱변환법에서는 빈도분포의 만족한 정규화를 기할 수 있었다. 또한 3개 변환법에 의해 유도된 설계홍수량의 비교 분석에서는 3개 방법 모두 재현기간 20년 이내의 설계홍수량이 거의 유사한 결과를 나타내었으며 Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test에 의한 3개 변환법별 적합도검정 결과 2단계 멱변환법이 적정 변환법으로 인정되었다.

설계홍수량의 유도를 위해 일차적으로 극치계열인 금강, 영산강 및 석진강 수개 3개 유역의 연최고치계열을 중심으로 하여 SMEMAX법, 역변환(Power Transformation) 및 2단계역변환(Two step Power Transformation, TSPT)법에 의해 척도분포의 정규화를 위한 변환법의 효율성 검정과 설계홍수량의 유도 및 비교분석을 수행한 결과 SMEMAX 법과 Power 변환법에서는 정규분포화를 왜곡도계수의 영으로의 접근 시도는 가능하나 소설도, 3으로의 조건을 충족시킬 수 없었던 반면 2단계역변환법에서는 소설도, 3에 매우 근접된 결과를 가져오므로서 척도분포의 정규화를 기할 수 있었고 각각의 변환법에 유도된 설계홍수량간의 비교분석에서는 SMEMAX 및 Power 변환법에 비해 2단계역변환방법에 의한 설계 홍수량이 재현기간 10년 이상 실측치에 보다 접근된 좋은 결과를 나타내었다.

Currently nonaqueous titration method for the assay method using the hazardous reagent, mercury acetate for difemerine hydrochloride has been used in Korean Pharmaceutical Codex. We developed an alternative titration assay method by substituting the use of the hazardous reagent, mercury acetate to the use of less toxic ones like ethyl alcohol. The linearity of the calibration curves in the desired concentration range was good (r>0.999). Precision was less than 0.64%. Accuracy was obtained with recoveries in range of 99.10% and 99.71%. The developed assay could be expected to become valuable tools for revising the Korean Pharmaceutical Codex.

최근 기후변화에 효과적으로 대응하기 위해서 신뢰성 높은 설계홍수량을 산정할 필요성이 커지고 있다. 설계홍수량 산정법은 홍수빈도해석법과 설계강우법으로 대별된다. 홍수빈도해석법은 홍수량 자료에 대한 통계학적 빈도분석을 실시하여 확률홍수량을 산정하는 방법이다. 홍수빈도해석법은 관측된 자료를 활용하기 때문에 이론적으로 불확실성이 상대적으로 작은 장점을 가지고 있지만, 자료의 수가 적거나 시간에 따라 변하는 유역특성에 대한 불확실성을 함께 고려해야 한다. 관측 유량 자료가 없거나 적은 유역에서는 설계강우법이 주로 사용되고 있다. 설계강우법은 강우자료에 대해서 빈도분석을 실시하여 확률강우량을 산정한 후, 이를 강우-유출 모형에 적용하여 확률 홍수 수문곡선을 작성하고 첨두치를 확률홍수량으로 선정하는 방법이다. 그러나, 설계강우법도 강우-유출 모형에서 유역특성을 나타내는 매개변수 추정과정에서 불확실성을 내포하고 있기 때문에 추정된 홍수량 결과에 대한 불확실성을 감안해야 한다. 또한, 강우량과 홍수량의 발생빈도가 같다는 가정의 명확한 근거가 없다. 더욱이 두 가지 설계홍수량 산정법을 같은 유역에 적용하는 경우라도 종종 매우 다른 결과값을 나타낸다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 국내 유역의 현실을 고려하여 설계강우법으로 산정된 확률홍수량을 홍수빈도해석법으로 산정된 확률홍수량을 변환할 수 있는 보정식을 개발하였다. 국내 9개의 댐 유역에서 확보된 일 단위 강우량 및 유출량 자료를 홍수빈도해석법과 설계강우법을 적용하여 대상 유역의 설계홍수량을 산정하였다. 그리고, 홍수빈도해석법으로 산정된 설계홍수량을 참값이라 가정한 후, 산정된 설계홍수량의 대상 유역별 오차율을 산정하였다. 이를 바탕으로 홍수빈도해석법과 설계강우법으로 산정된 설계홍수량 간의 관계를 회귀분석을 통하여 설계강우법으로 산정된 확률홍수량을 보정하는 관계식을 제시하였다.

For analyzing sand grain size, a specialized high-priced instrument has been used, such as sieve shaker, video camera, laser particle size analyzer, and microscope. Among these, the sieve shaker is commonly used because it is not only cheaper than others but also provides reasonable accuracy. However, it takes a long time and makes lots of dust and noise. In this study, a cheaper and easier method which can replace the sieve shaker is proposed. By using a commercial flat-bed scanner and a darkroom box, the sand size distribution can be analyzed. The darkroom box makes sand images clear and protects the glass of the scanner from being scratched. Comparison between the present method and sieve analysis shows that the present method not only has an accuracy comparable to the sieve analysis but also can save time and effort.

In this paper, the relationship of chamber contamination and the intensity change of specific wavelength was investigated. "diff_CO" formula was introduced to rule out background noise caused by external conditions and to detect when the polymer is removed from the chamber. As RF time increased, diff_CO trend showed the decrease of the maximum peak and increased number of small intensity peaks. From the diff_CO change, it was possible to determine when the chamber needs to be cleaned without opening the chamber.

UV-vis spectroscopy is one of the powerful tools for measuring the concentrations of reactant and products during a chemical reaction. However, there is an limitation of using the technique when the reaction undergoes in high concentration and high temperature. Color analysis using camera images can provide the identical results with UV-vis analysis with regardless of the sample concentration and temperature. The catalytic reduction reaction of resazurin to resorufin was investigated using the color analysis with the color spaces such as CIE L^*a^*b^*. Moreover, the color analysis enabled the independent analysis of two different material's concentrations without the deconvolution of overlapped wavelengths unlike the case of using UV-vis spectroscopy.

Geographical origin of the Korean, Chinese and Japanese sesame seeds were identified very high accuracy by NIR spectroscopy. The NIR instrument of filter type showed the same accuracy of the monochromator scanning type to identify the geographical origin of the sesame seeds. In case of adulteration between the Korean and Chinese sesame seeds, the ratio of addition could be determined about 10% error level. The reason of identification of geographical origin by NIR spectroscopy, it was supposed to the difference, of oil cake substance.
