The annual cycles of plant major nutrients and dissolved oxygen in a nutrients-rich semi-enclosed coastal inlet, chinhae Bay, of the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula are first presented. The water column of the bay is stratified during summer (April-late September) and well0mixed during winter (October-March). During the summer stratification period, dissolved oxygen contents exceed 400uM in the surface but diminish to less than 50uM in the near bottom waters, which often results in an anoxic environment in the inner part of Chinhae Bay. After the breakdown of the stratification in October, dissolved oxygen concentration remains undersaturated until February. The evidence of allochthonous input of N-nutrients throughout the year is readily seen in the water column: however. crude budget calculations show that the nutrients are efficiently utilized within the bay ecosystem, and that export of the nutrients from the bay to the shelf must be negligible. There is no sign of the enrichment of the nutrients in the water column. The eutrophication phenomenon sensu stricto is not observed in chinhae Bay. Using the standing stock of dissolved oxygen and estimation of the oxygen fluxes across the air-sea boundary, a benthic oxygen respiration rate during winter is estimated conservatively at 21-24 mmol Cm/SUP -2/d/SUP -1/. this oxygen respiration rate accounts for about 20% of the total phytoplankton production in winter.

contrasting monsoon between 1993 and 1994 produced an interannual difference in hydrology. Theoretical water residence time (TWRT) in monsoon 1993 averaged 27 d, which was>3 months shorter compared to the TWRT in monsoon 1994. A dominant physical process influencing thermal stratification, water movement, and mixing regime was an interflow current in 1993. During summer 1993, river water plunged to mid-lake (location 27 km) and passed through the 10${\sim}$20m stratum of the reservoir, resulting in an isolation of epilimnetic lake water from advected river water. The interflow disrupted thermal stratification and produced a meta-hypolimnetic warming of >4$^{\circ}C$ downlake, thereby increased a mixing depth (>13 m). In contrast, during monsoon 1994 density currents were not observed and strong thermal stratification occurred in the entire reservoir, resulting in > 2 fold greater thermal resistance (8.2${\times}10^{5}$ erg)compared to 1993 (4.0${\times}10^{5}$ erg). This reservoir was identified as a typical warm monomictic reservoir which showed one mixis during early winter. The timing of overturn, however, differed between the two years as a result of distinct contrast in TWRT and thermal regime; overturn in 1993 occured about one month earlier relative to that in 1994. Hypolimnetic warming was predictable in this system; the variation in discharge accounted (Y = 4.35-0.06X+0.10X$^{2}$, p<0.0001)for 98% of the interannual variation in hypolimnetic temperature. Overall data suggest that thermal stability, the timing of fall overturn, and water residence time in this system are primarily regulated by the intensity of monsoon.

In this study, three kinds of polymers based on phenothiazine-benzothiadiazole were synthesized by a Suzuki coupling reaction, and the various side-chains were substituted at the nitrogen of phenothiazine. The optical and electrochemical properties of synthesized polymers were analyzed. The results indicate that their absorption ranged from 300 to 700 nm, and also confirmed the ideal highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy level was about -5.4 eV with low band-gap energy. Photovoltaic devices were fabricated using a photoactive layer composed of a blended solution of the polymer and $PC_{71}BM$ in ortho-dichlorobenzene The device with P2HDPZ-bTP-OBT containing the branched side-chain and long chain showed the best performance; the maximum power conversion efficiency of this device was 2.4% (with $V_{OC}$ : 0.74 V, $J_{SC}$ : $6.9mA/cm^2$, FF : 48.0%).

This study analyzes a general pattern of the gate operation at the Asan bay seadikes and its effects on salinity. The coefficient of determination between precipitation and released freshwater from gate operation turns out to be 0.77-0.89. A stratification is not shown in the analysis of the salinity in upper and lower layers at the Asan bay because of strong tidal effects, and the coefficient of determination between runoff and salinity is in the range of 0.49-0.62 except station Daesan 4. Salinity observations from 8 stations show mean and standard deviation are highly correlated (coefficient of determination=0.9936), and both mean and standard deviation are influenced by freshwater. Eventually it is found that stations Asan 2 to 4 and Daesan 1 are within the regions of the freshwater influences.

Using monthly total ozone data obtained from a Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) onboard the Nimbus-7 and Earth Probe satellite, this study examined the trend in the total amount of global ozone during two periods: from 1979-1992 [Early period] and 1997-2002 [Latter period]. The Annual average of total ozone during the Early period was globally reduced by about 10 DU compared to the amount during the Latter, except in some areas between the equator and 20 N. Global trends of total ozone showed a decrease of -6.30 DU/decade during 1979-1992, and an increase of 0.12 DU/decade during 1997-2002. Its enhancement during the Latter period was especially noticeable in tropical areas. The EOF analyses of total ozone from this period indicated signs of temporal/spatial variability, associated with the phenomena of Quasi-Biennial Oscillation (QBO), Quasi-Triennial Oscillation (QTO), El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and volcanic eruption. Seasonal profiles of tropospheric ozone in the tropics obtained from ozonesondes, showed the spatial pattern of zonal wavenumber one. Overall, this study may be useful in analyzing possible causes in the variations of statospheric and tropospheric ozone.

Resolution 221 requests the ITU-R to conduct studies, as a matter of urgency, on the feasibility of utilizing HAPS system as a base station to provide IMT-2000 services. And HAPS base stations should not cause harmful interference to the cellular IMT-2000 services. To study on the interference between HAPS system and cellular system is divided into two cases. One is the interference into HAPS system from the cellular system and the other is the interference into the cellular system from HAPS system. Since the former case has been already studied[1]. this paper describes the interference the interference to the noise power ration(I/N) with various parameters, such as the transmitting power, the number of users per cell, maximum antenna gain and the multibeam cell radius of HAPS. With the proposed estimation, we can determine the optimum values of various parameters in HAPS IMT-2000 system.

This paper presents the seasonal variation of distribution and flushing time of the fresh water in Suyoung Bay based on the monthly observation from May 1989 through April 1990 and Pusan City Report of Suyoung Bay. Most of Suyoung river water was trapped inside of the bay west of the Dong-Baek Island located. Low salinity water lies dominantly on the right hand side of the Suyong river. Salinity structure of the bay is the well mixed type in summer and the partially mixed type in other season. The fresh water fraction varied in an exponetial manner from unity at the head of bay toward a value of zero at the its mouth. The calculated average flushing time during a year was about 10-15days. About 1.5 days was in summer because the strong fresh water discharge from the river was dominated in the bay.

In WRC-2000, Resolution 734 was adopted to study the use of high altitude platform station(HAPS) operating in the bands above 30GHz. Therefore, frequency sharing feasibility between a new HAPS systems and an existing terrestrial fixed-service(FS) system should be analyzed primarily. In this paper, interference effects from the HAPS system into the radio-relay station are analyzed in terms of two cases; one is the interference distribution from the power-flux density(PFD) of HAPS airships, and the other the interference power from the ground stations. In conclusion, the new PFD criteria different from the exiting satellite system should be required, and the coordinated distance between the HAPS nadir and the radio-relay station should be 60km ∼ 253km for P$\sub$HG/ = -50dBW/MHz of transmitting power spectral density to share the new HAPS system into the existing FS system.

The prelaunch thermal transients in the cryogenic oxidizer tank of liquid propulsion rocket subjected to uniform heat flux from outside are numerically analyzed through thermodynamic equations and heat and mass transfer relations. The prelaunch stage is assumed to be composed of five idealized sub-stages including pressurization process by helium gas injection. The Peng-Robinson equation of state is utilized in the lumped analysis of ullage gas. The liquid region is divided into a number of horizontal layers of uniform properties to account for the thermal stratification. The computational result for the typical case shows that the temperature rise of liquid oxidizer is less than 1K and the adsorbed helium into the liquid is approximately 10g.

Smoke extraction in tunnel fire is investigated experimently with thermal model. The object is a immersed tunnel, of which the partial extraction system exists between the tubes. The model tunnel is measured 12 m long, 0.5 m wide and 0.35 m high. The fire is simulated to pool fire and the size corresponds to full scale fire of 5 MW based on Froude modeling. The performance of partial extraction system is determined under two ventilations, natural and longitudinal ones. The results show that compared with longitudinal ventilation, the smoke extraction efficiency of natural ventilation is increased about 30% because of smoke stratification in tunnel. Also the efficiency is identical to the iso-thermal model. The results will be help for activation of the ventilation system in emergency such as in the event of tunnel fires.
