This study analyzed spectroscopic methods for characterization of skarn minerals and sphalerite occurring in Dangdu ore deposit, and effectiveness of portable spectrometer in skarn mineral resources exploration is discussed. The spectroscopic analyses identified clinopyroxene, garnet, epidote, calcite, chlorite and sphalerite where spectral curves of clinopyroxene, garnet, epidote, and sphalerite show single mineral spectral characteristics and those of chlorite are in a mixed form with calcite and clinopyroxene. The assessment of spectroscopic analyses based on XRD analysis and microscopic observation reveals that clinopyroxene, garnet, epidote correspond well with more than 80% of detection, but sphalerite, chlorite, and calcite showed below 50% of detection rate. It is expected that skarn deposit exploration using a portable spectrometer is more effective in detection of clinopyroxene, garnet, and epidote whereas spectroscopic data of sphalerite, chlorite, and calcite needs to be utilized as a supplementary data. For the effective detection of chlorite and calcite, their content in the samples needs to be sufficient.

Electrothermal-Hollow Cathode Glow Discharge Spectrometry (Et-HCGDS) has been constructed in our laboratory for in-situ monitoring of traceble amounts of rare earth elements and actinides. Et-HCGDS is the portable glow discharge system that can perform the trace analysis of elements. The main structural design of Et-HCGDS was based upon the electrothermal heating and glow discharge techniques. More details on Et-HCGDS are available elsewhere. In this study, air was used as a flow gas for the glow discharge system. As a result, the emission spectra of air were collected and the assignment of air emission lines was performed with helps of pure nitrogen and oxygen emission spectra and previously published results. We found that the emission lines of air plasma were mainly due to nitrogen molecules. This paper includes the complete assignments of the air emission lines observed by using Et-HCGDS. Also, this study will be an useful reference for spectrochemical anaysis including air analysis.

탁도는 물의 상대적인 흐림 정도를 나타내는 척도로서 이는 빛이 물을 통과할 때 산란시키는 부유고형물질 때문에 발생한다. 토양침식에 의하여 지표수로 유입된 토사와 광물질은 하천의 수송 및 퇴적 과정을 거치며 이동한다. 이때 하상 퇴적물은 바닥으로부터 먹이를 찾는 유기체에 의해 뒤섞이며 입자들은 일정기간동안 물의 흐름에 의해 부유상태로 남아 있게 되고, 유입되는 영양소와 빛에 의하여 성장하는 조류 또한 탁도를 증가시키는 원인이 된다. 이러한 부유물질의 증가는 수중에 태양복사에너지 전달을 방해하여 수중생태계의 먹이사슬과 저서생물의 서식환경에 많은 영향을 미치고, 수표면 온도 또한 태양으로부터 열을 흡수하는 표면 근처의 부유물질에 의해 증가하여 용존산소의 양에도 영향을 미친다. 따라서 수체내 분포하고 있는 부유물질의 종류와 양 및 공간적 분포 파악은 수질문제와 재난 예방 및 생물의 서식환경 문제를 파악하고 해결하는 데 매우 중요하다. 그러나 부유물질에 부착되어 있는 영양소, 금속, 살충제 등은 물 순환 시스템을 통하여 끊임없이 운반되고 상류유역의 흐름 조건에 따라 시공간적으로 변화하기 때문에 이를 규명하는 것이 매우 어려운 실정이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 광역적인 탁수환경의 분석방법으로 원격탐사(Remote Sensing, 이후 RS) 기법을 이용한 방법이 제안되고 있다. 이미 선진국에서는 광역수계의 수질관리를 위해 RS 기법을 이용하여 신속하고 정확한 수질상태 파악을 시도하고 있으며, 우리나라에서도 KOMPSAT 발사를 계기로 RS 관련 기술이 비약적으로 진화하고 있다. 그러나 RS 데이터를 활용하는데 필수적인 분광학적 특성 규명에 대한 연구는 대부분 식생과 토양에 한정되어 있으며 수체에 대한 연구는 현장조사의 어려움으로 인하여 상당히 제한적인 수준이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 탁도의 변화에 따른 분광반사 특성을 휴대용 분광복사계를 이용하여 규명하고, 이를 Landsat 위성영상에 적용하여 새만금 유역을 대상으로 완공 직후인 2006년부터 2010년까지의 탁수환경을 모니터링 하였다. 그 결과 새만금 유역 탁수환경을 정성적으로 확인할 수 있었으며, 이를 이용하여 탁수환경 연구에 RS 기법이 효과적임을 제시하고자 한다.

This study investigated spectral characteristics of heavy metal contaminated soil samples in the vicinity of abandoned Boksu mine. Heavy metal concentrations including arsenic, lead, zinc, copper and cadmium were analyzed by XRF analysis. As a result, all of the soil samples excluding control sample were over-contaminated based on the counter measure standard. The XRD results revealed that quartz, kaolinite and smectite were detected for all of the soil samples and heavy metals in soil were adsorbed on clay minerals such as kaolinite and smectite. The spectral analyses confirmed that spectral reflectance of near-infrared and shorter portion of shortwave-infrared spectrum decreases as heavy metal concentration increases. Moreover, absorption depths at 2312 nm and 2380 nm, the absorption features of clay minerals, decreases with higher heavy metal concentration indicating adsorption of heavy metal ions with clay minerals. It indicates that spectral features and heavy metal contamination of soil samples have high correlations.

This study investigated mineralogy, spectral characteristics and heavy metal contamination including Cd, Ni, Al, Fe, Mn and S for white precipitation in Miin falls based on XRF, XRD, and spectrometer. As a result, Al concentration was abnormally high at all samples, and most of the samples showed high contamination level in Cd and Ni. XRD results detected quartz, kaolinite, rhomboclase, aluminocoquimbite, and gibbsite which infers that heavy metal elements are distributed by adsorption with clay minerals. Spectral characteristics of white precipitation can be described by increasing pattern of reflectance in visible spectrum and decreasing pattern of reflectance in longer wave length including near infrared and shortwave infrared spectrum. The absorption features reveals that spectral characteristics of white precipitation is mainly controlled by kaolinite, rhomboclase, aluminocoquimbite, and gibbsite. The relationship between heavy metal concentration and absorption depth showed high positive correlation for Al concentration and absorption feature at 2202 nm of Al-OH absorption. This spectral characteristics indicates that absorption depth could be effectively used for estimation of heavy metal concentration.

Vegetation indices on the basis of optical characteristics of vegetation can represent various conditions such as canopy biomass and physiological activity. Those have been mostly developed with the large-scaled applications of multi-band optical sensors on-board satellites. However, the sensitivity of vegetation indices for detecting vegetation features will be different depending on the spatial scales. Therefore, in this study, the investigation of photochemical reflectance index (PRI), known as one of useful vegetation indices for detecting photosynthetic ability and vegetation stress, under the three spatial scales was conducted using multi-spectral camera installed in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV),field spectrometer, and leaf reflectometer. In the leaf scale, diurnal PRI had minimum values at different local-time according to the compass direction of leaf face. It meant that each leaf in some moment had the different degree of light use efficiency (LUE). In early growth stage of crop, $PRI_{leaf}$ was higher than $PRI_{stands}$ and $PRI_{canopy}$ because the leaf scale is completely not governed by the vegetation cover fraction.In the stands and canopy scales, PRI showed a large spatial variability unlike normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). However, the bias for the relationship between $PRI_{stands}$ and $PRI_{canopy}$ is lower than that in $NDVI_{stands}$ and $NDVI_{canopy}$. Our results will help to understand and utilize PRIs observed at different spatial scales.

탄소나노튜브(CNT)를 이용한 초소형 X선 튜브는 근접 암치료, 비파괴 X선 영상 장치, 휴대용 X선 분광계 등에서 X선 발생소스로 많이 연구되고 있다. 2극형 CNT 에미터의 경우 구조가 단순하여 초소형 X선 튜브에 쉽게 장착할 수 있지만 아노드의 전압과 전류가 연동되기 때문에 튜브의 조작성이 제한적이다. 3극형은 상대적으로 복잡한 구조이고, CNT에서 방출된 전자가 게이트 전극으로 흐르는 누설 전류 그리고 절연체와 충돌하여 차징을 발생시킬 수 있기 때문에 직경이 좁은 초소형 X선 튜브에 구현하기가 쉽지 않다. 하지만 초소형 X선 튜브를 다양한 X선 장치에 응용하기 위해서는 아노드 전압과 전류의 독립된 조작이 가능한 3극형 CNT 에미터가 반드시 구현되어야 한다. 본 발표에서는 전자빔의 아노드 집속을 강화하고 절연체에서의 차징을 줄이는 포커싱 기능의 게이트(FFG) 구조를 제안하였고. 이를 적용하여 초소형 X선 튜브들을 제작하고, 분석하였다. FFG 구조가 성공적으로 적용된 초소형 X선 튜브는 게이트 누설 전류 없이 뛰어난 전류 및 X선 방출 특성을 보였다. 이와는 달리, 몇몇 초소형 X선 튜브들에서는 게이트 누설 전류가 나타났고, 아노드 전압에 의한 게이트 전압 상승이 발생하여 불안정한 구동 특성을 보였다. 초소형 X선 튜브를 밀봉하지 않고 진공 챔버에서 실험한 결과, 유도된 게이트 전압은 상당한 시간이 흐르거나 진공챔버에 공기를 주입하고 다시 진공상태로 만들면 유도전압이 제거되는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 결론적으로 CNT에서 방출된 전자빔이 정상궤도를 벗어나 게이트 누설전류와 차징에 의한 게이트 유도전압을 발생시키면 초소형 X선 튜브가 불안정한 구동을 하고, 결국 튜브의 심각한 결함으로 나타나게 된다. 즉, 게이트 누설 전류와 유도된 게이트 전압은 3극형 CNT 에미터가 장착된 초소형 X선 튜브의 디자인과 제작에 있어서 성공 기준이 될 수 있다.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) imagery are being assessed for analyzing within field spatial variability for agricultural precision management, because UAV imagery may be acquired quickly during critical periods of rapid crop growth. This study refers to the derivation of barley and wheat growth prediction equation by using UAV derived vegetation index. UAV imagery was taken on the test plots six times from late February to late June during the barley and wheat growing season. The field spectral reflectance during growing period for the 5 variety (Keunal-bori, Huinchalssal-bori, Saechalssal-bori, Keumkang and Jopum) were measured using ground spectroradiometer and three growth parameters, including plant height, shoot dry weight and number of tiller were investigated for each ground survey. Among the 6 Vegetation Indices (VI), the RVI, NDVI, NGRDI and GLI between measured and image derived showed high relationship with the coefficient of determination respectively. Using the field investigation data, the vegetation indices regression curves were derived, and the growth parameters were tried to compare with the VIs value.

Heating and Steaming treatments were carried for deresinning and color change of radiata pine juvenile wood. The boards of 20 mm and 30 mm thicknesses were heat-treated at $150^{\circ}C$ and $220^{\circ}C$ for 2, 4 and 6 hours and steamed at $100^{\circ}C$ for 6, 24 and 48 hours. For extracting residual resin in treated boards and measuring wood surface color, alcohol-benzene solution and a portable colorimeter were used, respectively. The board of 20 mm thickness were deresined effectively by heating at over $150^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours or steaming for 6 hours while that of 30 mm thickness by steaming for 48 hours. For the board of 30 mm thickness treatment time was more influencing on deresinning than treatment temperature. The steamed boards showed higher $L^*$ than the heat-treated for both thicknesses. $L^*$ decreased with the increase of treatment temperature and time, but for the board heat-treated at $220^{\circ}C$ it didn't change after 4 hours. The surface color of the boards heat-treated at $220^{\circ}C$ for 4 and 6 hours were obviously changed, but those at $150^{\circ}C$ were not. It was revealed that the core of the heat-treated board was color changed as well as the surface.
