This paper studies thermal characteristics of a mix of CPU-intensive and memory-intensive application workloads on a multi-core processor. Especially, we focus on thermal variations during program execution because thermal variations are more critical than average temperatures and their ranges for thermal management. New metrics are proposed to quantify such thermal variations for a workload. We study the thermal variations using SPEC CPU2006 benchmarks with varying cooling conditions and frequencies on an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. The results show that applications have distinct thermal variations characteristics. Such variations are affected by cooling conditions,operating frequencies and multiprogramming workload. Also, there are distinct spatial thermal variations between cores. Our new metrics and their results from this study provide useful insight for future research on multi-core thermal management.

It is very important to detect land cover/land use change from the past and to use it for future urban plan. This paper investigated the application of Landsat satellite imagery for detecting urban growth and assessing its impact on surface temperature in the region. Land cover/land use change detection was carried out by using 30m resolution Landsat satellite images and hierarchial approach was introduced to detect more detail change on the changing area through high resolution aerial photos. Also, surface temperature according to land cover/land use was calculated from Landsat TM thermal infrared data and compared with real temperature to analyze the relationship between urban expansion and surface temperature. As a result, the urban expansion has raised surface radiant temperature in the urbanized area. The method using remote sensing data based on GIS was found to be effective in monitoring and analysing urban growth and in evaluating urbanization impact on surface temperature.

Hyporheic zone, where groundwater-stream water mixing occurs, sensitively responds to heat of groundwater and stream water temperature. Variation of stream water temperature has short time period and time dependent, because stream water temperature is influenced by daily fluctuation and seasonal air temperature. On the other hand, groundwater temperature is insignificant. In this study, we conducted 1-dimensional heat transfer analysis. The results show that there are differences of temperature distribution between gaining stream and losing stream with flux in hyporheic zone. Especially, variations of hyporheic water temperature show a significant difference in adjacent streambed, Also, the results shows that distribution of temperature was more affected by groundwater direction than intensity of flux.

Because the satellite imagery can detect the radiative heat from the surface using the thermal IR (TIR) channel, there have been many efforts to verify the relationship between the land surface temperature (LST) and urban heat island. However, the relationship between geomorphological characteristics like surface aspects and LST is relatively less studied. Therefore, the geomorphological elements, for example, surface aspects and surface slopes, are considered to evaluate their effects on the change of the surface temperature distribution using the Landsat 7 ETM+ TIR channel and the possibility of the image to detect anthropogenic heat from the surface. We found that the surface aspect is ignorable but the surface slope with the sun elevation influences on the surface temperature distribution. Also, the radiative heat from the surface to the atmosphere could not be accurately recorded by the satellite image due to the surface slope but the slope correction process used in this study could correct the surface temperature under slope condition and the slope correction, in fact, was not influenced on the average temperature of the surface. The possibility of the anthropogenic heat detection from the surface from the satellite imagery was verified as well.

오늘날 도시인구집중화 현상에 따른 대규모 도시개발과 도시역의 확대로 지표면의 피복 변화가 극심하게 이루어지고 있는 한편 이러한 현상으로 인해 도시의 내 외적 경관변화 뿐만 아니라 지형 및 기온상승, 바람장의 변화 등 복합적인 국지기후 변화를 초래하게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 도시의 기후 변화에 따라 청계천 복원 전의 도시 지표 열 환경 특성을 분석을 수행하고자 한다 도시지역의 열환경 분석을 위하여 기존에는 주로 Landsat TM/ETM+ 위성영상 자료를 사용하였으나 2003년 5월 위성 센서의 고장으로 위성영상 자료의 사용이 불가피하게 되었다. 이에 대체 방안으로 ASTER 영상 열적외 센서에서 취득한 지표온도 값과 현장에서 취득한 AWS자료와의 상관성 분석을 실시하였으며, 이를 기반으로 청계천 주변의 근접성 분석 및 토지이용별 지표온도 분포 패턴 등 도시 열 환경 변화 탐지 및 분석을 위하여 GIS 및 RS 분석을 실시하였다.

Mid-Infrared (MIR) 영상은 화산 활동 및 산불로 인한 재난관측, 지표물질 관측, 해수 온도 측정과 같은 분야들에서 사용되고 있다. 그러나 MIR영역은 지표의 복사율과 대기의 영향으로 인한 변화가 매우 심하고, 낮 영상의 경우 태양 복사량에 의한 영향도 고려해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 단일밴드인 MIR영상을 이용하여 표면온도를 얻기 위해서는 영상이 취득된 시간과 장소에서 관측된 태양 복사량 및 여러 가지 대기 변수가 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 기존의 MIR 영상 연구가 다중밴드를 기반으로 한 것과 달리 단일 밴드의 영상을 이용하여 표면온도를 측정하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 MODIS MIR 영상을 대상으로 MODTRAN을 사용하여 MIR 영역의 대기보정 기법을 적용 한 뒤 복사전달 모델을 이용하여 지표의 복사량을 측정하였다. 획득된 지표온도 영상의 정밀도를 측정하기 위해서 기존의 온도 알고리즘인 split-window algorithm에 의해 얻어진 해수온도 영상과의 비교를 통하여 오차 원인에 대해 분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 낮 영상의 경우 -4.19${\pm}$1.19$^{\circ}C$ 정도의 온도 차가 났으며, 밤 영상의 경우 0.5$^{\pm}C$0.39$^{\circ}C$ 정도로 비교적 좋은 결과를 보였다. 이는 낮 영상의 경우 지표의 복사율에 대한 온도의 민감도가 매우 높기 때문에 높은 오차가 발생하지만, 밤 영상의 경우 태양빛에 의한 영향이 없으므로 좋은 결과를 나타내기 때문이다. 따라서 단일밴드 MIR영상을 이용한 지표온도 추정 시 대기에 의한 영향보다 지표 복사율에 의한 영향이 높다고 추정할 수 있다.

To properly interpret and define climatic warming trends of the last $100\~150$ years.; climatic changes over the past several centuries must be constrained. High resolution surface air temperatures (SATs) to reconstruct global temperature trends extend back only to the late of 19th century. Fortunately, on long time scale and over large areas, ground surface temperatures (GSTs) track SATs. GST changes penetrate into the subsurface and are recorded as transient temperature perturbation. Therefore, borehole temperatures can be used to recover climate change over the last millennium in an area; paleoclimate change inferred from borehole temperatures can be used to interpret global warming over the last century, little ice age, and medieval warm period.

Finally, the analytical results shows the possible failure mechanism of FRP deck under various temperature changes and its corresponding index is suddenly varied depending on the rapid change of temperature on the deck plate.

Energy Balance Model (EBM) was used to experiment the distribution of surface equilibrium temperature which responds to external forcing associated with the surface characteristics. Surface equilibrium temperature is calculated as sum of incoming solar radiation and latitudinal transport is balanced with outgoing infrared radiation. To treat incoming solar radiation, the source of the earth energy, significantly for energy balance, the experiment for surface equilibrium temperature distribution was performed considering the energy balance with the latitudinal albedo change as well as land and sea distribution. In addition, linear albedo change experiment, arctic albedo 5%, 10%, 15% change experiments and the opposite albedo change experiments between arctic and mid-latitudes were performed using incoming solar radiation as an external forcing. Moreover, with and without ice-albedo feedback experiments were performed. Increasing of arctic albedo is blocked out the incoming solar radiation so that it induces decreasing of latitudinal heat transport. It is strengthened energy transport from low latitudes by keeping arctic low energy states. Therefore the temperature change in the mid-latitudes exhibits larger response than that of arctic due to the difference of transport. The land which has lower heat capacity than sea can be reach to equilibrium temperature shortly. Also land is more sensitive to temperature change with respects to albedo. Thus it induces the thermal difference between land and sea. As a result, the equilibrium temperature exhibits differently as the difference of albedo and heat capacity which are the one of surface characteristics. Surface equilibrium temperature decreases as albedo increase and the ratio of temperature change is large as heat capacity is small. The decreasing of surface equilibrium temperature with respects to increasing of linear albedo is accelerated by ice-albedo feedback. However local change of surface equilibrium temperature decreases non-linearly.
