PURPOSES : The hydrated lime-modified asphalt, which improves moisture resistance, is normally used for pavements to reduce the number of potholes. However, the method of applying the material properties of the lime-modified asphalt mixture for use in pavements is not covered in the Korean Pavement Research Program (KPRP). The objective of this research is to find a method for the design application of lime-modified asphalt's material properties to the KPRP. METHODS: The section for test design is selected in some conditions which are related to the level of design regarding Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT). To define the application methods of hydrated lime in the KPRP, the models of fatigue, rut and international roughness index (IRI) are determined based on the M-EPDG test results from some earlier research results. Moreover, it is well known that dynamic moduli of the unmodified mixture are not different from those of the lime-modified mixture. RESULTS: The performance results of hydrated lime-modified asphalt pavement were not very much different from those of the unmodified pavement, which meant the limited design regulations regarding fatigue failure, rutting deformation and IRI. CONCLUSIONS: The KPRP uses the weather model from the data for previous 10 years. It implies that the KPRP cannot predict abnormal climate changes accurately. Hence, the predictive weather data regarding the abnormal climate changes are unreliable. Secondly, the KPRP cannot apply the moisture resistance of asphalt mixtures. Therefore, a second level of design study will have to be performed to reflect the influence of moisture. It means that the influence on pavement performance can be changed by the application of hydrated lime in asphalt mixture design.

최근 대두되고 있는 기후변화는 물과 탄소의 순환으로 이뤄진 생태계 간의 상호작용으로 인해 발생한다. 이를 분석하기 위해 물 이용효율(Water Use Efficiency, WUE)이 사용되는데, 이는 광합성 시 사용되는 수분 대비 흡수되는 탄소의 비율이다. 물 이용효율은 주변 환경의 기상 및 지표 조건에 영향을 받으며, 생태계의 변화를 반영하는 지표다. 본 연구에서는 한반도의 시공간적 물 이용효율을 분석하며, 나아가 가뭄과의 연관성을 가뭄 지수를 통해 보고자 한다. 물 이용효율과 가뭄 지수를 측정하기 위해서 Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS) 영상으로부터 Gross Primary Production(GPP, 총일차생산량)과 Evapotranspiration(ET, 증발산량) 자료를 산정하였다. 이를 통해 계산한 물 이용효율은 한반도의 전 지역과 모든 식생 종류에 대해 여름 우기철에 감소하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 나아가 연간 물 이용효율은 가뭄 지수와 음의 상관관계를 보이며 한반도의 남쪽 지역으로 갈수록 그 상관계수가 증가하였다.

Heat stress has adverse effects on fertility of dairy animals. Decline in fertility is linearly associated with an increase in combination of both temperature and humidity. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between temperature humidity index (THI) and the pregnancy rate of Murrah buffaloes in a subtropical climate. The effects of genetic and non-genetic factors viz., sire, parity, period of calving and age group at first calving were found non-significant on pregnancy rate. The effect of THI was found significant (p<0.001) on pregnancy rate of Murrah buffaloes calved for first time and overall pregnancy rate. The threshold THI affecting the pregnancy rate was identified as THI 75. The months from October to March showed THI<75 and considered as non heat stress zone (NHSZ), while months from April to September were determined as heat stress zone (HSZ) with $THI{\geq}75$. The lowest overall pregnancy rate (0.25) was obtained in July with THI 80.9, while the highest overall pregnancy rate (0.59) was found in November with THI 66.1. May and June were identified as critical heat stress zone (CHSZ) within the HSZ with maximum decline (-7%) in pregnancy rate with per unit increase in THI. The highest overall pregnancy rate was estimated as 0.45 in NHSZ with THI value 56.7 to 73.2. The pregnancy rate was found to have declined to 0.28 in HSZ with THI 73.5 to 83.7. However, the lowest pregnancy rate was estimated as 0.27 in CHSZ with THI value 80.3 to 81.6.

The analysis of baseflow contribution is very significant in Korea because most rivers have high variability of streamflow due to the monsoon climate. Recently, the importance of such analysis is being more evident especially in terms of river management because of the changing pattern of rainfall and runoff resulted from climate change. Various baseflow separation methods have been developed to separate baseflow from streamflow. However, it is very difficult to identify which method is the most accurate way due to the lack of measured baseflow data. Moreover, it is inappropriate to analyze the annual baseflow contribution for Korean rivers because rainfall patterns varies significantly with the seasons. Thus, this study compared the baseflow contributions at various time-scales (annual, seasonal and monthly) for the 4 major river basins through BFI (baseflow index) and suggested baseflow contribution of each basin by the BFI ranges searched from different baseflow separation methods (e.g., BFLOW, HYSEP, PART, WHAT). Based on the comparison of baseflow contributions at the three time scales, this study showed that the baseflow contributions from the monthly and seasonal analysis are more reasonable than that from the annual analysis. Furthermore, this study proposes that defining BFI with its range is more proper than a specific value for a watershed, considering the difference of BFIs between various baseflow separation methods.

To reveal the spatial and temporal variability in the distribution, growth, and maturation of skipjack tuna Katsuwonus pelamis in the western tropical Pacific, we compared two El $Ni{\tilde{n}}o$-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) signals and the sea surface temperature (SST) in the main fishing area with fishery and biological data. An index of skipjack tuna distribution was calculated using Korean purse seine fishery data from 1985 to 2003. Biological data for skipjack tuna were collected monthly from Korean catches during the 1994-2003 period. The catch was more closely related to the SST in the main fishing area than to the ENSO signals. However, cross-correlated function analysis showed delayed interactions between abiotic and biotic factors. The El $Ni{\tilde{n}}o$ events preceded the eastward movement of the fishing center by 2-3 months. El $Ni{\tilde{n}}o$ had a positive effect on the skipjack tuna catch, and the change in the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) preceded the catch fluctuation by ca. 5-7 months. In addition, negative El $Ni{\tilde{n}}o$ effects on gonad maturation and the mean length of skipjack tuna were detected with time lags of 12 and 7 months, respectively. The length frequency indicated that the regime-specific growth pattern at each discrete period seemed to be related to the ENSO.

APEC 기후센터(APEC Climate Center, APCC)에서 제공하는 다중모형앙상블(Multi-model Ensemble, MME) 형태의 계절예측정보를 이용하여 3개월 가뭄전망을 수행하였다. APCC MME는 기후예측모형이 가지는 불확실성을 최소화하기 위한 방법으로, 아시아 태평양 지역 내 9개 회원국 16개 기관 21개 기후모형의 계절예측정보를 활용하여, 개별 모형이 가지는 계통오차(Systematic error)를 앙상블 기법을 통하여 상쇄함으로써 최적의 예측자료를 도출한다. 또한, 기후예측 모형이 예측한 대기순환장은 관측 지점변수와 경험적 통계적 관련성을 가지므로, 이를 바탕으로 상세지역의 이상기후에 대한 정보를 도출할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 가뭄 관리 및 전망을 위한 입력 자료로서, 기상전문 기관인 APEC 기후센터 (APEC Climate Center, APCC)에서 제공하는 전구 규모의 기온 및 강수 전망자료를 기상청 산하 59개 지점의 전망자료로 통계적 규모 축소화 기법을 통해 3개월 예보를 실시하였다. APCC 계절예측자료를 가뭄모니터링시스템의 자료입력 포맷에 따라 적절히 가공한 뒤, 가뭄 관리 및 전망을 위하여 SPI(Standard Precipitation Index) 및 PDSI(Palmer Drought Severity Index)지수의 입력자료로 사용하여 SPI 및 PDSI 지수를 산정하였다. 또한 분위사상법(Quantile Mapping)을 이용하여 총 59개 지점의 과거 월평균 관측값과 최근 2009년에 대한 모의값의 누적확률분포값을 계산하고 모의값의 확률분포를 관측값의 확률분포에 사상시켜 가뭄 전망을 위한 기상변수의 오차를 보정하고자 하였다. 이러한 계절예측정보를 이용하여 가뭄 전망에 대한 신뢰도가 높아진다면, 사전예방 및 피해완화로 가뭄상황에 대한 신속한 대처 및 피해의 경감이 이루어질 수 있을 것이다.

With the negative influences and damage from Asian dust increasing, it's getting important to investigate the climate and soil condition of the source region of Asian dust. There is a high possibility that the desertification and the drastic decrease of plants in China and Mongolia make worse the situation (bad effects of Asian Dust). To detect the movement of Asian dust caused by air circulation, we need to watch the state of the source region to get useful information for the prevention of the dust pollution, and to predict what part of China will become the source region. Therefore, using TOMS aerosol index data, NCEP reanalysis data that is Remote Sensing data from 1981 to 2000 (except 1993~1996, 4 years), for 16 years, examined the relation between the dust occurrence and weather elements. Dust occurrence appeared much in spring season from March to May in study areas. It had a dry climate during that season as follows : relative humidity about 20~40%, temperature about -5~5$^{\circ}C$, precipitation about 33-180 mm, wind speed about 4-10 ms-1. Dust occurrence and weather element annual change in study areas decreased gradually till 1990, but in Gobi desert the incidence of dust occurrence increased since 1997. As a result, found out that the more the precipitation, the less dust occurrence, because the precipitation and surface wind speed had a direct influence on the soil of the source region of dust.

The land surface reflectance is a key parameter influencing the climate near the surface. Therefore, it must be determined with sufficient accuracy for climate change research. In particular, the characteristics of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) when using earth observation system (EOS) are important for normalizing the reflected solar radiation from the earth's surface. Also, wide swath satellites like SPOT/VGT (VEGETATION) permit sufficient angular sampling, but high resolution satellites are impossible to obtain sufficient angular sampling over a pixel during short period because of their narrow swath scanning. This gives a difficulty to BRDF model based reflectance normalization of high resolution satellites. The principal objective of the study is to add BRDF modeling of high resolution satellites and to supply insufficient angular sampling through identifying BRDF components from SPOT/VGT. This study is performed as the preliminary data for apply to high-resolution satellite. The study provides surface parameters by eliminating BRD effect when calculated biophysical index of plant by BRDF model. We use semi-empirical BRDF model to identify the BRD components. This study uses SPOT/VGT satellite data acquired in the S1 (daily) data. Modeled reflectance values show a good agreement with measured reflectance values from SPOT satellite. This study analyzes BRD effect components by using the NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and the angle components such as solar zenith angle, satellite zenith angle and relative azimuth angle. Geometric scattering kernel mainly depends on the azimuth angle variation and volumetric scattering kernel is less dependent on the azimuth angle variation. Also, forest from land cover shows the wider distribution of value than cropland, overall tendency is similar. Forest shows relatively larger value of geometric term ($K_1{\cdot}f_1$) than cropland, When performed comparison between cropland and forest. Angle and NDVI value are closely related.
