The nucleation mechanism was studied using a calcium ion selective electrode (Ca ISE) to observe the formation of CaCO₃, a representative mineral in the CO2 cycle, and to analyze the effect of the Mg/Ca-ratio and temperature on the formation of pre-nucleation cluster (PNC) and CaCO₃. As a result of the experiment, a small amount of crystal was formed. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) was used for surface element analysis, and a field emission scanning-electron microscope (FE-SEM) was used for the morphology analysis of synthesized carbonates. These results showed that various shapes of crystalline CaCO₃ (calcite, aragonite, etc.) were observed for each Mg/Ca ratio and temperature. In addition, the calibration plot obtained from Ca ISE showed information on the formation process of CaCO₃. Our results showed that as magnesium ions interfered with the binding of calcium and carbonate ions and delayed the aggregation between PNCs, the nucleation and formation of CaCO₃ were delayed. On the other hand, the temperature showed an opposite trend as compared to the effect of magnesium under our experimental conditions, indicating that temperature accelerated the formation of CaCO₃. Furthermore, the morphology of CaCO₃ clearly changed according to the Mg/Ca ratio and temperature, and it was confirmed that the two factors are very important for CaCO₃ formation in that they could affect the overall process.

Efforts have been made to introduce the climate smart agriculture (CSA) for adaptation to future climate conditions, which would require collection and management of site specific meteorological data. The objectives of this study were to identify requirements for construction of agricultural meteorology information service system (AMISS) using technologies that lead to the fourth industrial revolution, e.g., internet of things (IoT), artificial intelligence, and cloud computing. The IoT sensors that require low cost and low operating current would be useful to organize wireless sensor network (WSN) for collection and analysis of weather measurement data, which would help assessment of productivity for an agricultural ecosystem. It would be recommended to extend the spatial extent of the WSN to a rural community, which would benefit a greater number of farms. It is preferred to create the big data for agricultural meteorology in order to produce and evaluate the site specific data in rural areas. The digital climate map can be improved using artificial intelligence such as deep neural networks. Furthermore, cloud computing and fog computing would help reduce costs and enhance the user experience of the AMISS. In addition, it would be advantageous to combine environmental data and farm management data, e.g., price data for the produce of interest. It would also be needed to develop a mobile application whose user interface could meet the needs of stakeholders. These fourth industrial revolution technologies would facilitate the development of the AMISS and wide application of the CSA.

최근 10년간 우리나라의 에너지 소비는 매년 10[%]라는 세계 최고의 증가율을 기록하고 있으며 온실가스배출량 증가율 역시 세계 1 위를 기록하고 있다. 세계기후협약 이행이 늦추어지고는 있지만 머지않아 우리도 여기에 참여하지 않을 수 없는 형편이어서 대체에너지 개발의 필요성은 더욱 절실하게 요구되고 있는 실정이다. 11개 분야의 신 재생 어|너지 중에서 최근 가장 많은 관심을 갖고 있는 태양광 발전은 태양광을 직접 전기에너지로 변환시키는 기술로서 광을 조사시 광전효과에 의해 전기를 발생하는 원리를 이용한 발전방식이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 이러한 구성장치에 의해 넓은 부지가 필요하며 햇빛의 방향에 따라 또는 태양전지에 입사하는 일사량의 정도에 따라 많은 발전전력에 차이가 있으므로 태양광 발전의 경우 발전단가가 높고 효율이 낮기 때문에 일사량에 따른 전력을 측정하여 효율적인 발전에 필요한 조건을 알아 보기위해 2007년 1년간의 실증운전을 통한 일사량과 전력발생량을 비교 분석하였으며 또한 햇빛의 일사량은 시간대별, 일별, 월별, 년별로 각각 달리 측정되므로 각각의 일사량에 따른 전력패턴을 분석하여 태양광 발전에 필요한 일사량과 전력과의 상관관계를 연구하였다.

Recent climate change and ensure each country's marine fisheries resources due to the sharp decline to address the eco-friendly farming has emerged. Marine aquaculture operations to provide ease of use for the fishing ship cranes. In this paper, we use the default handler for the shipping cranes and improve the working environment of the received video equipment in the work area through the monitoring and analysis of visual information to optimize the image, convenient and high visibility for workers to have real-time video guide system is proposed.

Climate changes consistently cause coastal accidents such as coastal flooding, so the studies on monitoring the marine environments are progressing to prevent and reduce the damage from coastal accidents. In this paper, we propose a new method to estimate the sea level which can be applied to the tidal sensors to monitor the variation of sea level. Existing sea level models are very complicated and need a lot of tidal data, so they are not proper for tidal sensors. On the other hand, the proposed algorithm is very simple but precise since we use the measured data from the sensor to estimate the sea level value in short period such as one or two hours. It is shown by experimental results that the proposed method is simple but predicts the sea level accurately.

Paris Agreement signed in January 2015 is a new rule that will replace the existing Kyoto Protocol. The new agreement needs new demands and challenges to minimize carbon emissions. Especially, even though agricultural sector occupies only 1.8% in the national energy consumption, the portion of the energy being occupied in agricultural production costs very high. Although renewable energy and energy-saving facilities is being developed and disseminated for replacing fossil fuel energy and saving energy, the installation-rate is not enough high. Thus, this paper developed Korean-style smart farm system, and carried out the experiment to show the performance of energy savings through analyzing proper environment in domestic situation.

Almost all existing inspection methods for catenary system have relied on dedicated track inspection cars. Two factors make it necessary to modify the conventional method: First, the climate has become increasingly similar to that of a subtropical area. In addition, high speed trains have been developed that can run as fast as 450Km/h. This paper presents a visual catenary inspection system structure that incorporates roadbed information for high-speed running environments. Conventional catenary inspection systems determined the degree of wearing only for the trolley wire. The facility inspection system presented in this paper on the other hand utilizes visual and sound data of inspection targets and adjusts inspection frequency and sensitivity depending on the geographic data.

Recently, with the rapid growth of industry, environmental condition became worse. With the mix of the various contaminants, such as, salts, dust and industrial pollutants, synergy effect could be happened. So, many researches have been focused on the issue. The cause of natural accident could be classified as, lightning, rainstorm and contamination. However, the accident by contamination influences on the larger area than that by lightning, and, in the case of rapid contamination, it takes a shorter time than rainstorm. The salt contaminant is one of the most representative pollutants, and known as the main source of the accident by contamination. So, in this investigation we make a research on the prediction of contamination degree through the relationship analysis between the climatic factor and ESDD.
