To understand the mean surface circulation and surface currents in the East Sea, trajectories of surface drifters passed through the East Sea from 1991 to 2017 were analyzed. By analyzing the surface drifter trajectory data, the main paths of surface ocean currents were grouped and the variation in each main current path was investigated. The East Korea Warm Current (EKWC) heading northward separates from the coast at $36{\sim}38^{\circ}N$ and flows to the northeast until $131^{\circ}E$. In the middle (from $131^{\circ}E$ to $137^{\circ}E$) of the East Sea, the average latitude of the currents flowing eastward ranges from 36 to $40^{\circ}N$ and the currents meander with large amplitude. When the average latitude of the surface drifter paths was in the north (south) of $37.5^{\circ}N$, the meandering amplitude was about 50 (100) km. The most frequent route of surface drifters in the middle of the East Sea was the path along $37.5-38.5^{\circ}N$. The surface drifters, which were deployed off the coast of Vladivostok in the north of the East Sea, moved to the southwest along the coast and were separated from the coast to flow southeastward along the cyclonic circulation around the Japan Basin. And, then, the drifters moved to the east along $39-40^{\circ}N$. The mean surface current vector and mean speed were calculated in each lattice with $0.25^{\circ}$ grid spacing using the velocity data of surface drifters which passed through each lattice. The current variance ellipses were calculated with $0.5^{\circ}$ grid spacing. Because the path of the EKWC changes every year in the western part of the Ulleung Basin and the current paths in the Yamato Basin keep changing with many eddies, the current variance ellipses are relatively large in these region. We present a schematic map of the East Sea surface current based on the surface drifter data. The significance of this study is that the surface ocean circulation of the East Sea, which has been mainly studied by numerical model simulations and the sea surface height data obtained from satellite altimeters, was analyzed based on in-situ Lagrangian observational current data.

This study investigates the characteristics of atmospheric circulation and the heat source $(Q_1)$ related to the winter cold surge in Korea from 1979 to 1999. The occurrence frequency of cold surge is about one event per year and $60\%$ of the total events occurred during the former period, before 1989. During the cold surge, the pressure pattern shows more dominant east-west dipole circulation pattern in the lower troposphere and the effect of upper level trough is stronger than normal cases. Temperature falling pattern over Korea shows that the pattern opposite to the temperature structure over Lake Baikal and temperature change has opposite signs between the low-middle level and upper level, with the boundary at 400 hPa. The analysis of heat source shows that atmospheric cooling by cold advection during the cold surge is balanced by adiabatic warming due to downward motion, indicating that the movement path of cold core is associated with that of heat sink. Therefore, the movement mechanism of the heat source and sink should be well known for understanding the maintenance mechanism of cold surge and predicting cold surges.

강수량의 계절성은 수자원관리에 있어 매우 중요한 수문요소로서 계절성의 변동을 정량적으로 평가하는 것은 미래 수자원관리 및 정책 수립에 필수적이다. 이러한 점에서 본 연구의 목적은 강수량의 계절성을 평가하는데 유리한 방법론을 제시하고, 이를 통한 계절 변동성의 정량적인 해석을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구에서 적용한 순환통계치 분석은 시간을 각도로 변환하여 이용함으로써 미세한 시간적인 변화양상의 정량적인 해석이 가능한 방법이다. 강수량의 주기특성과 과거로부터 현재까지의 변화 양상을 평가하기 위해서, 우선 전국의 58개 강우관측소를 선별하고 각 관측소의 일강우자료를 이용하여 관측소별 연최대치계열(Annual maxima series)과 발생일자, 월최대강수계열(Monthly maxima series)과 발생일자를 추출하였다. 각 자료의 발생일자는 순환통계분석을 위해 해당 time scale을 한 주기로 하는 방향각 데이터로 변환하였으며, 변환된 시간속성 데이터의 통계특성치를 산정하여 발생시기에 대한 경향성을 분석하였다. 월최대강수량의 발생 시기는 자료 계열 연주기의 변동성을 평가하기 위해 사용되었고, 분석결과 남해안지역이 6월말에서 7월초이고, 북쪽으로 올라감에 따라 조금씩 발생시기가 늦어지는 것으로 분석되었다. 극치강수량의 발생 경향을 평가하기 위해 사용된 일최대강수량의 시공간적 변동성은 월최대강수량보다 크게 분석되었으며, 이는 일최대강수량의 경우 지형학적인 영향에 크게 좌우되며, 우리나라의 여름철 극치강수량이 태풍 발생빈도 및 경로와 연관성을 갖는다는 일반적인 사실을 반영한 결과라고 판단된다. 월최대강수량 및 일최대강수량 발생시기의 이동평균을 통해 발생시기의 변동을 분석한 결과, 서울과 강릉지방은 최대강수량의 발생시점이 늦어지고 있으며 반대로 목포와 부산지방은 최대강수량의 발생시점이 앞당겨지고 있었다. 이는 몬순시스템의 거동에 영향을 받는 것으로 사료된다.

안정적인 취수원의 역할을 할 수 있는 중·대규모의 하천이 없는 연안 및 산간지역의 경우 생활용수 등 각종 용수의 확보를 위하여 지하수자원을 활발히 이용하고 있다. 수문순환의 측면에서 대수층 내 지하수자원은 다양한 경로로 함양되는데, 주변에 물 교환이 활발히 발생하지 않는 연안 및 산간지역의 경우 지하수자원의 주된 함양원은 강수 형태로 내린 물이라고 볼 수 있다. 그러나 최근 전세계적으로 기후변화로 인한 강수패턴의 변화가 발생하고 있고, 특히 국내의 경우 연 총 강수량이 증가하나 무강우일수 및 무강우지속일수의 증가, 강우강도의 증가(기상청, 2018)와 토지이용특성 및 지표면 특성이 변화하면서 지표면 유출량이 증가함에 따라 수문순환의 불균형이 발생하고 있다. 이는 주된 취수원으로 지하수자원에 의존할 수 밖에 없는 연안 및 산간지역의 수자원 확보에 큰 위협이 될 수 있고, 미래 안정적인 수자원 확보가 어려운 상황에 직면할 수 있는 상태이다. 따라서 기존의 하천 위주의 유역 관리계획 수립에서 나아가 가뭄 발생 시 물 부족에 시달리고 있는 연안 및 산간지역의 수자원 관리 및 확보 계획 수립에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 안정적인 수자원 확보와 이를 위한 관리 계획의 사각지역에 놓여있는 국내 연안 및 산간지역의 수자원 관리 방안 수립을 위한 초석을 다지기 위하여, 연안 및 산간지역을 대상으로 지하수위 관리 취약성 평가 연구를 수행하였다. 연안 및 산간지역의 주된 취수원인 지하수자원의 주요 평가 인자로 지하수위를 선정하였고, 이에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 수문순환 요소와 인구, 토지이용 특성 등의 평가 인자를 선정하였다. 지표수-지하수 연계와 지역특성을 고려한 수자원 변동 특성을 분석하기 위하여 수문순환 요소간 상관관계를 기반으로 상호 영향성을 규명하였다. 또한 연구 지역의 시간적, 공간적 특성을 평가하기 위하여 공간특성 평가인자와 시간특성 평가 인자를 함께 고려하여 국내 연안 및 산간지역의 지하수위 관리 취약성 평가 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 지하수자원에 의존할 수 밖에 없는 국내 연안 및 산간지역의 효율적인 수자원 관리 계획을 수립함에 있어 정량적 근거가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

In this paper, we propose a new symbol offset estimation technique for an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)-based wireless LAN. When both inter-symbol interference (ISI) and inter-channel interference (ICI) do not exist in an OFDM symbol, symbol offsets cause circular shifts in the estimated channel impulse response (CIR) by the amount of symbol offset. Also, the power delay profile of a typical multipath wireless channel can be modeled by exponentially decaying function, and most energy of multipath channel is concentrated at the beginning part of the CIR. Based on these properties, the proposed symbol offset estimation technique estimates the CIR, which is circularly shifted by the amount of symbol offset, and then calculates the partial mean power from the estimated impulse response by using a moving window with a finite length. And, symbol offset can be estimated from the index of a moving window having the maximal partial mean power. The proposed technique can reduce noise effect in the process of the CIR estimation, and remove ISI and ICI using repetitive training symbol structure in time-domain for minimum training overhead. The performances of the proposed symbol offset estimation technique in typical indoor channels are demonstrated by computer simulation.

A Differentiating pathway of hemocytes in vitro and in vivo of grasshopper, Euprepocnemis shirakii was described using light and electron microscopes. In the interior of body, the stem cells of the hemopoietic organ differentiated into six types of cells respectively which are prohemoyte, plasmatocyte, granulocyte I, granulocyte II, spherulocyte and oenocytoid. The formation of these hemocytes was derived from the stem cells surrounded by a reticular cell. Hemopoietic tissue cultured in the insect media differentiated different hemocytes, but none of them underwent any mitotic division. Morphological features of the cultured cells in media were essentially the same as those of the hemocytes differentiated from the stem cells in vivo. These results were shown that each stem cell could differentiate into different types of hemocytes. It was confirmed that the stem cells possessed the pluripotent differentiation ability to directly each hemocyte, and that the once formed hemocytes in vivo and in vitro didn t undergo further transformation to other hemocytes. The maintenance of circulating hemocytes in grasshopper had been depended on the widely spreading hemopoietic organ situated in the upper surface of the dorsal alary muscle and located on the first to eighth segments.

Vessel path prediction methods generally predict the latitude and longitude of a future location directly. However, in the case of direct prediction, errors could be large since the possible output range is too broad. In addition, error accumulation could occur since recurrent neural networks-based methods employ previous predicted data to forecast future data. In this paper, we propose a vessel path prediction method that does not directly predict the longitude and latitude. Instead, the proposed method predicts the acceleration of the vessel. Then the acceleration is employed to generate the velocity and direction, and the values decide the longitude and latitude of the future location. In the experiment, we show that the proposed method makes smaller errors than the direct prediction method, while both methods employ the same model.

The most optimal route-search algorithm thus far has introduced a method of applying node labels and link labels. Node labels consider two nodes simultaneously in the optimal route-search process, while link labels consider two links simultaneously. This study proposes a turn-label-based optimal route-search technique that considers two turns simultaneously in the process. Turn-label-based optimal route search guarantees the optimal solution of dynamic programming based on Bellman's principle as it considers a two-turn search process. Turn-label-based optimal route search can accommodate the advantages of applying link labels because the concept of approaching the limit of link labels is applied equally. Therefore, it is possible to reflect rational cyclic traffic where nodes allow multiple visits without expanding the network, while links do not allow visits. In particular, it reflects the additional cost structure that appears in two consecutive turns, making it possible to express the structure of the travel-cost function more flexibly. A case study was conducted on the metropolitan urban railway network consisting of transportation card terminal readers, aiming to examine the scalability of the research by introducing parameters that reflect psychological resistance in travel with continuous pedestrian transfers into turn label optimal path search. Simulation results showed that it is possible to avoid conservative transfers even if the travel time and distance increase as the psychological resistance value for continuous turns increases, confirming the need to reflect the cost structure of turn labels. Nevertheless, further research is needed to secure diversity in the travel-cost functions of road and public-transportation networks.

CA is cost-effective to generate pseudorandom patterns than LFSR. Based on the effectiveness of a CA based pseudorandom pattern generator, CA have been employed successfully in several applications. Especially Nongroup CA is applied to efficient hash function generation, cryptography and image compression. In this paper we analyze the properties of TPNCA and by using basic paths in the 0-tree of a linear TPNCA we analyze the structure of the state-transition graph. Also by showing the structure of the complemented CA which have the acyclic state of the 0-tree as the complement vector is isomorphic to the structure of the original TPNCA, we reduce the time in analyzing the CA-states.
