Skin is continously exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, the major cause of skin disorders including skin aging. Chlorophylls were well known as photosensitizer initiating subsequent chemical reactions such as photooxidative deterioration of cellular structures. This experiment was designed to elucidate the effects of $\beta$-carotene and ascorbic acid with chlorophylls on UVB-induced photooxidation in linoleic acid emulsion model system and skin homogenate of ICR mouse. In linoleic acid emulsion model system, the addition of chlorophyll and $\beta$-carotene accelerated the photooxidation, while high concentration of ascorbic acid prevented. The combination of chlorophylls, $\beta$-carotene and ascorbic acid, which concentrations are simplified from mustard leaf kimchi, prevented UVB-induced photooxidation. Although single treatment of $\beta$-caretene accelerated photooxidaiton, $\beta$-caretene acted as antioxidant in the combination with ascorbic acid. Similarly the addition of individual chlorophylls and $\beta$-carotene accelerated the UVB-induced photooxidation in skin homogenate of ICR mouse. 50 ppm of ascorbic acid did not show the any preventive effect, however 500 ppm of ascorbic acid effectively prevented the oxidation. Photooxidation was prevented in the combination of chlorophylls and $\beta$-carotene with 500 ppm of ascorbic acid and concentration rate of ascorbic acid plays an important role in the prevention of UVB-induced photooxidation.

Recently, global climate change has caused a catastrophic event in the Arctic Ocean, directly and indirectly. The air-sea interaction has caused the significant sea-ice reduction in the Arctic Ocean, and has been accelerating the Arctic warming. Many scientists are worried about the Arctic environment change, suggesting that many of anomalous events will produce direct or indirect biophysical effects on the Arctic. The aim of this study is to understand the inter-annual variability of the Arctic Ocean in wide-view using multi-satellite-derived measurements. Sea surface temperature (SST) and sea ice concentration (SIC) data were obtained from Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (OISST) and ECMWF ERA-Interim, respectively. Chlorophyll-a concentration (CHL) was obtained from Sea-Viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor (SeaWiFS) and Aqua sensor from MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS-Aqua) sensor which has continuously observed since 1998. From 1998 to 2016 summer in the Arctic Ocean which was defined as regions over $60^{\circ}N$ in this study, there were three consequences that CHL increase ($0.15mg\;m^{-3}\;decade^{-1}$), SST warming ($0.43^{\circ}C\;decade^{-1}$) and SIC decrease ($-5.37%\;decade^{-1}$). While SST and SIC highly correlated each other (r = -0.76), a relationship between CHL and SIC was very low ($r={\pm}0.1$) because of data limitations. And a relationship between CHL and SST shows meaningful results ($r={\pm}0.66$) with regional differences.

This study assessed the feasibility to apply Two-band and Three-band reflectance models for chlorophyll-a estimation in turbid productive waters whose scale is smaller and narrower than ocean using a high spatial resolution image. Those band ratio models were successfully applied to analyzing chlorophyll-a concentrations of ocean or coastal water using Moderate Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS), Sea-viewing Wide Field-fo-view Sensor(SeaWiFS), Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer(MERIS), etc. Two-band and Three-band models based on band ratio such as Red and NIR band were generally used for the Chl-a in turbid waters. Two-band modes using Red and NIR bands of RapidEye image showed no significant results with $R^2$ 0.38. To enhance a band ratio between absorption and reflection peak, We used red-edge band(710 nm) of RapidEye image for Twoband and Three-band models. Red-RE Two-band and Red-RE-NIR Three-band reflectance model (with cubic equation) for the RapidEye image provided significance performances with $R^2$ 0.66 and 0.73, respectively. Their performance showed the 'Approximate Prediction' with RPD, 1.39 and 1.29 and RMSE, 24.8, 22.4, respectively. Another three-band model with quadratic equation showed similar performances to Red-RE two-band model. The findings in this study demonstrated that Two-band and Three-band reflectance models using a red-edge band can approximately estimate chlorophyll-a concentrations in a turbid river water using high-resolution satellite image. In the distribution map of estimated Chl-a concentrations, three-band model with cubic equation showed lower values than twoband model. In the further works, quantification and correction of spectral interferences caused by suspended sediments and colored dissolved organic matters will improve the accuracy of chlorophyll-a estimation in turbid waters.

In study, we investigated changes on growth and chlorophyll concentration on sprouted barley by fractionated X-ray irradiation (FXI). Group was divided into the control group (CG), 1-time irradiation group (30 Gy once), 2-time irradiation group (15 Gy 2 times), and 3-time irradiation group (10 Gy 3 times), and 20 grains were used per group. Experimental group (EG) was exposed by using linear accelerator (Clinac IS, VERIAN, USA), by 6 MV X-ray, SSD 100 cm, 18×10 cm², 600 MU/min. Length was measured every day until 9th day, and chlorophyl was analyzed using spectrophotometer(uv-1800, shimadzu, japan) in 9th day. Data analysis was performed the One-way ANOVA using SPSS ver 26.0(Chicago, IL, USA). In the pre-germination irradiation group (Pre-GIG), the CG had greater length than the EG on all measurement days, and as the number of FXI increased, the length became shorter. In the post-germination irradiation group (Post-GIG), the length of the CG was statistically significantly greater than that of the EG on all measurement days, and as the number of FXI increased, the length also became longer. The chlorophyll concentration was higher in the Post-GIG than in the Pre-GIG, and chlorophyll concentrations of EG was higher in the Pre-GIG than in the CG, as well as and Post-GIG. In addition, the smaller the number of FXI, the higher the chlorophyll concentration in both groups. FXI was found to affect the growth and chlorophyll concentration of sprouted barley.

Since vegetations are near the wavelength range in 700nm and have absorbent as well as reflective wavelength ranges, there is a much difference in terms of its reflection rate. There are currently many researches on vegetation index being conducted in order to apply the remote-sensing technology to vegetations rising their characteristics of absorbent and reflective wavelength ranges. Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Perpendicular Vegetation Index (PVI) have been most commonly used. It is usually the evaporation, carbon-dioxide consumption, and chlorophyll density that represent the activity of vegetation, but chlorophyll density is the most commonly used among them. Since the red wavelength range used to obtain the NDVI and PVI has a strong extinction of chlorophyll, it is also useful to test chlorophyll density. The NDVI, in particular, is used to identify the vegetation conditions summarily, and thus, is suitable for initiative researches. Nevertheless, since these vegetation index produce mixed information of the Vegetation vigor and vegetation cover, it is essential to monitor a wavelength range that is independent from redundancy of the Vegetation vigor and vegetation cover. Although many vegetation indices have evaluated both the vegetation vigor and Vegetation cover simultaneously, this research intends to emphasize the utility of separable evaluations of the Vegetation vigor and Vegetation Cover rate through an experiment with grasses. As a result of evaluating vegetation index using spectral reflectance, a separable evaluation of the vegetation vigor and cover has been found more useful.

In this study, one studied the principal factors and water-quality components that determine the concentration of chemical oxygen demand (COD) in seawater in estuaries, such as the Han, Geum, Youngsan, Seomjin, and Nakdong rivers in Korea. The principal factors determining the concentration of COD in seawater indicated by the principal component analysis were salinity, exogenous origin and autochthonous resources based on chlorophyll-a. Moreover, organic matter in the submarine sediment layer also had a secondary effect. Regression slope assessed the contribution of water-quality components to determine the concentration of COD in the estuary. One found that the effect of salinity on the overall survey was significant. Moreover, the effect of chlorophyll-a was also appeared in April and August. In each estuary, the most significant contribution factor was chlorophyll-a in the Nakdong River and salinity in the Han and Yongsan rivers. The contribution of salinity and chlorophyll-a were found to be the largest in the Geum River. The salinity and chlorophyll-a in the Seomjin River showed a low contribution.

근래에 대한민국 담수계에 조류 대발생으로 인한 수질악화 문재가 대두되고 있다. 또한 독성물질을 생성하는 남조류종이 우점하는 현상으로인해 수질문제와더불에 생태계와 인간의 건강도 잠재적인 위험을 받고있는 실정이다. 이와같은 조류 대발생으로인한 피해를 최소화하기위해 효과적인 수질관리가 필수적이다. 원격탐사기술은 조류의 공간적인 분포를 해석하고 농도를 정량화하기위해 이용되고 있다. 현재까지 많은 분광알고리즘들이 개발되어 담수유역에 적용이 되고 있다. 수체마다 다른 분광특성 때문에 알고리즘내의 파라미터 및 분광밴드 조정이 필수적이다. 하지만 대부분의 연구에선 파라미터와 밴드의 변경에 따른 결과향상에만 초점이 맞춰지고 있어 분광알고리즘내의 파라미터와 분광밴드사이의 관계 이해 뿐만아니라 알고리즘 최종 산출물에 대한 영향에 관한 설명이 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구에선, 대한민국 백제보를 대상으로 현장모니터링 및 조류추출 실험을 진행하였고, 이를 기반으로 5가지 클로로필a 알고리즘과 2가지 피코시아닌 알고리즘을 구축하였다. 알고리즘내에서 변수들의 관계와 영향을 알아보기위해 민감도 분석을 실시하였다. 민감도 분석 조건을 기반으로 one-objective 최적화 및 multi-objective 최적화를 실시하여 백제보수계를 대표할 수 있는 최적 변수들을 모의하였다. 민감도 분석결과 후방산란계수에 영향을 미치는 파라미터와 조류 생체량에 영향을 미치는 파라미터가 다른 변수들 및 알고리즘 농도산정결과에 가장 민감한 것으로 나타났다. multi-objective 최적화 결과가 one-objective 결과 및 reference 결과보다 대부분 정확도가 향상되었고 흡광도 계수를 함께 고려할 수 있기 때문에 백제보 수계의 분광특성을 함께 고려하여 대표할 수 있는 장점을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 본 연구는 민감도 분석을 활용하여 분광알고리즘 내의 변수들의 이해를 도모하였고, 최적화 기법 중, multi-objective 최적화 기법이 백제보의 분광특성을 대변하는 최적변수를 제시할 수 있음과 동시에 보다 나은 정확성을 제고할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

하천과 해양에서 발생한 수질오염은 특성상 유속의 흐름에 따라 광범위하며 급속도로 퍼져나가기 때문에 이를 효율적으로 유지, 관리하기 위해서는 오염인자들에 대한 모니터링이 수행되어야 한다. 원격탐사 기술을 이용한 하천의 수질측정은 대규모지역으로 분포해있는 수질농도의 변화양상을 시 공간적으로 모니터링 하는 것이 가능하게 할 뿐 아니라, 사람이 접근하기 어려운 지역에는 직접취수를 하지 않음으로써 기존의 수질측정방법들에 비해 편의성을 높여 시간적, 경제적 측면에서 효율적이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 최근 수질오염이 심화되고 있는 낙동강유역을 대상으로 인공위성 이미지영상을 이용하여 수질인자들의 농도측정을 수행하였다. 연구를 위해 사용된 인공위성은 NASA와 USGS가 공동으로 운용중인 Landsat 8 인공위성이다. Landsat 8의 11개 band 중 band2(Blue), band3(Green), band4(Red), band5(Near Infrared)를 사용하여 실제로 측정된 지점자료와 인공위성자료간의 상관관계를 규명하였다. 사용된 인공위성자료는 지점자료 날짜를 포함하는 총 4개의 연구날짜(2013/10/27, 2013/11/12, 2014/04/14, 2014/05/16)에 해당하는 위성이미지영상이다. Pearson상관계수를 통한 밴드와 수질인자간의 상관 결과, 본 연구지역에서는 $0.85-0.88{\mu}m$(band5)의 파장영역에서 클로로필-a와 부유물질이 가장 민감하게 반응함을 알 수 있었다. 두 수질인자들은 band2, band3, band4에서도 비교적 높은 상관성을 보였으며, 이를 근거로 band combination, band ratio를 통해 클로로필-a와 부유물질의 회귀모델식을 유도하였다. 각각의 회귀모델식은 실제 측정된 데이터들과 비교 검증을 통해 4개의 연구기간 중 2013년 10월 27일, 2014년 5월 16일에 대해서 클로로필-a와 부유물질의 공간적인 분포양상을 시각적으로 도시화하였다.

The reflectance of chlorophyll was measured using UV-VIS spectrophotometer with the reflectance integrator in the laboratory in order to define its spectral characteristics. Sharp peaks appear at around 485nm and 655nm due to fluorescence and scattering, and the reflectance of chlorophyll increases at 580nm. With the increase in the chlorophyll concentration, the reflectance also increases. We have applied TM data to the reflectance spectrum of chlorophyll and have developed two formula with which one can estimate the chlorophyll concetration. Satellite re sensing, with its synoptic overage, is used to obtain the chlorophyll concentration in Daecheong reservoir. The approach involved acquisition of water quality samples front boat simultaneous with Landsat 5 satellite overpass. The remotely-sensed data and the ground truth data were obtained oil 20 June 1995 and on 18 March 1996. Regression models have been developed between the chlorophyll concentration and Landsat Thematic Mapper digital data. As the regression model was determined based on the correlation coefficient which was higher than 0.7 and the spectral characteristics of chlorophyll, and we have applied it to the entire study area to genelate a distribution map of trophic state. According to the trophic state map made based upon Aizaki's TSI and chlorophyll a concentration, the area where Okchun stream was flowing into was shown to be polluted the most all over the Daechung reservoir by showing an eutrophic state in June 1995 and a mesotrophic state in March 1996.
