e-VLBI(electronic VLBI)는 각 관측 사이트에서 얻은 대용량의 VLBI 데이터를 영상합성처리 센터로 전송하기 위하여 네트워크를 이용하는 기술이다. 이는 전세계의 관측소에서 얻어낸 막대한 용량의 데이터를 실시간, 준-실시간 형태로서 데이터센터에 전송할 수 있는 유일한 방법으로서 초고속정보통신망을 적극적으로 활용하는 애플리케이션이라 할 수 있다. 한국천문연구원에서는 현재 2007년 완공을 목표로 연세대, 울산대, 탐라대에 건설되는 20m 안테나와 대덕전파천문대의 14m 안테나를 네트워크로 연결하는 e-KVN(Korean VLBI Network) 계획을 추진중에 있으며 이는 각 관측소에서 얻은 VLBI 데이터를 네트워크를 통하여 1024Mbps로 데이터센터까지 실시간으로 전송하는 것을 그 궁극적 목표로 하고 있다. 이러한 e-VLBI를 구현함에 있어서 첨단화된 네트워크 및 하드웨어 기술은 필수라고 할 수 있는데 본 연구에서는 e-KVN의 백본망으로서 예상되고 있는 KOREN과 10GbE으로 구성된 네트워크 토폴로지에 대해 간략히 기술하고 e-KVN의 향후 전망 및 보완해야 할 네트워크 기술에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

The variation of atmospheric conditions including subrefraction, normal refraction, superrefraction, and ducting is an important factor that affects the quality of radar data by controling the propagation of radar beams. The occurrence frequency of the conditions is statistically analyzed using the atmospheric soundings from seven radiosonde stations in South Korea over two years. The occurrence of superrefraction and ducting at Baengnyeongdo is significantly higher than the others. Osan and Kwangju show significant variation in time. Among the different duct conditions, the surface duct is dominant at most stations except for Gosan. The elevated duct is dominant at Heuksando and Gosan. Duct is more frequent in summer than in winter at all stations. Baengnyeongdo shows the most frequent duct in spring, fall, and winter while Pohang had the highest frequency in summer. Osan and Kwangju show least duct during all seasons. The difference of variation of monthly duct occurrence between 00 UTC and 12 UTC is insignificant at all stations except for Osan and Kwangju. Kwangju, Heuksando and Gosan show relatively low frequency of duct with the monthly maximum barely reaching 60%. The highest number of elevation angles that are affected by duct was four at Osungsan radar (KSN). The maximum elevation angle is around $1.0^{\circ}$ at all stations and Jindo radar (JNI) shows the maximum value of $1.2^{\circ}$.

In radio astronomy, high-capacity HDDs are being used to save huge amounts of HDDs in order to record the observational data. For VLBI observations, observational speeds increase and huge amounts of observational data must be stored as they expand to broadband. As the HDD is frequently used, the number of failures occurred, and then it takes a lot of time to recover it. In addition, if a failed HDD is continuously used, observational data loss occurs. And it costs a lot of money to buy a new HDD. In this study, we developed the integrity verification system of the Serial ATA HDD using FirmOS. The FirmOS is an OS that has been developed to function exclusively for specific purposes on a system having a general server board and CPU. The developed system performs the process of writing and reading specific patterns of data in a physical area of the SATA HDD based on a FirmOS. In addition, we introduced a method to investigate the integrity of HDD integrity by comparing it with the stored pattern data from the HDD controller. Using the developed system, it was easy to determine whether the disk pack used in VLBI observations has error or not, and it is very useful to improve the observation efficiency. This paper introduces the detail for the design, configuration, testing, etc. of the SATA HDD integrity verification system developed.

Monthly mean sea levels from 103 tidal stations in Korea, Japan, and Russia are analyzed to study long-period sea level variations. Barometric adjustment are done for all the sea level data, using monthly air pressures at sea levels from meteorological stations near tidal stations. Seasonal variation is dominant in most of study area. It is the largest in the coasts along the Tsushima Current, and the smallest in the Russian coasts. The cross-correlations of seasonal variations are very high between the coasts along the Tsushima Current. In these marginal seas, seasonal variations seem to be related with the Tsushima Current. The phase of seasonal variations is generally getting late from south to north, and also from west to east. On the other hand, longer-period variations(longer than seasonal variation) have the largest amplitudes and the earliest phases in the coasts along the Pacific Ocean, which shows that they propagate from the Pacific Ocean. Shorter-period variations (shorter than seasonal variation) have generally lower cross correlations. Their values do not show any dictinct difference between areas, and show a common tendency that they are inversely proportional to distance. It implies that the shorter period waves are generated all over the study areas, and propagate in all the directions with faster dissipations. The trends of sea levels in the study area are generally negative in the coasts along the Pacific Ocean and positive in the other areas during the period of 1965 to 1985. By the trends, the mean volume transport between Cheju and Sasebo can be reduced by about 1 Sv during the period. The seasonal variation of volume transport obtained by sea level difference is about 2 Sv in the Korea Strait. The values are comparable to previous reports.

The response of sea levels to a typhoon in the north Japanese coast in the Japan Sea is investigated by using hourly ses level data($1966{\sim}1986$) and a numerical shallow water model with high resolution($5'{\times}5'$). The observed sea level analysis shows (1) progressive waves exist between Simonoseki(SS) and Maizuru(MZ) with the mean phase speed of about 4 m/s during the passage of the typhoon, (2) the phase speed between Sasebo(SB) and HK(Hakata) is slower(about 1.7 m/s), and (3) the maximum sea level at HK is achieved about 0.5 day later than that of SS. In many aspects, the numerical model results correspond well to the above observed features. In the model the progressive waves are identified as a topographic wave with the phase speed of about 4 m/s. Before the typhoon passes through the Korea Strait/ the Tsushima Strait, the wave propagations along the Japanese coast are significantly influenced by the southwestward coastal jet induced by the wind stress parallel to the coast. The waves start to propagate northeastward along the coast when the coastal jet is weakened.

본 논문은 지표면 현상의 관측에 날씨의 영향을 거의 받지 않는 마이크로파 L-밴드(1.95 GHz)와 C-밴드(5.3 GHz) scatterometer 시스템을 이용하여 농업과학기술원 내의 논에서 자라는 추청벼를 대상으로 2006년 5월 29일부터 10월 9일까지 생육에 따른 군락의 후방산란계수를 관측한 데이터와 작물의 생육과의 관계를 살펴보고 또한，측정 시스템의 개요，측정 시스템의 보정 방법들을 기술하고자 한다. Scatterometer 시스템의 송 수신기로 HP 8753D 벡터 네트워크 분석기를 사용하며，타워 위에 안테나를 설치하여 3.4 m의 높이에서 측정하도록 하였다. L-밴 드와 C-밴드 scatterometer는 VV-, VH-, HV-, HH-편파를 측정하여 fully polarimetric한 데이터를 얻도록 설계된 레이더시스템으로 입사각을 $30^{\circ}{\sim}60^{\circ}$에서 $10^{\circ}$간격으로 각각 30개의 독립적인 샘플을 측정하여 통계적으로 후방산란계수를 얻었다. 타워에서 발생하는 전파 잡음과 안테나 패턴의 부엽에 의한 지면에서의 수직반사(coherent 성분) 전파를 제거하기 위해 네트워크 분석기의 time gating 기능을 사용하며，55 cm 크기의 trihedral 전파반사기를 보정용 반사기로 사용하고， STCT(single target calibration technique) 방법을 이용하여 시스템을 보정하였다. 측정 결과를 분석하여 주파수， 입사각도， 편파의 변화에 대한 벼의 후방산란 특성과 벼의 생육상태과의 관계를 살펴보았다. L-밴드와 C-밴드 모두 벼의 생육과 밀접한 결과를 나타내었으나，입사각이 작을 때는 C-밴드와의 상관이 높게 나타났고 입사각이 커질수록 L-밴드와의 상관이 높게 나타났다. 편파는 L-밴드 와 C-밴드 모두 hh 편파가，입사각은 50도에서 가장 생육의 변이를 잘 설명하는 것으로 나타났다. 생육 데이터 모두를 이용한 경우보다는 유수형성기 또는 출수기 등 벼 생육의 질적인 변화를 보이는 시기에 따라 나누어 분석하는 것이 변화추이를 더 잘 설명하는 것으로 나타났다.

Rock blasting is utilized in various fields such as mining, tunneling, and the construction of underground structures. The role of rock blasting technology has became increasingly significant with the growing utilization of underground cavity. Blast hole pressure, generated during rock blasting, is a critical variable directly impacting factors such as crushing and blast vibration. It stands out as one of the most important parameters for assessing explosive performance and predicting blasting effects. While blast hole pressure has been studied by several researches, comparisons are challenging due to variations in experimental conditions such as explosive type, charge, and blasting conditions. In this study, blast hole pressure sensors and observation hole pressure sensors were developed to measure pressure during single-hole blasting, The experimental results were then used to discuss the propagation characteristics of pressure around the blast hole and the corresponding blast vibration.
