This study was performed to investigate the effects of water temperature and salinity on the egg development and larval attachment of Ascidiella aspersa. The egg development and larval attachment were examined in 12 different water temperatures (6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26 and $28^{\circ}C$) and two salinity conditions(30 and 34 psu). The hatching and developmental rates of A. aspersa showed a tendency to increase with increasing water temperature regardless of salinity and to decrease after the optimal water temperature range. The optimal water temperatures for the hatching and development of egg of A. aspersa were in the range of $20-22^{\circ}C$. The low threshold water temperature was not different between 1.5 and $1.8^{\circ}C$ at 30 and 34 psu, respectively. The attachment rate showed the optimal water temperature range of $16-22^{\circ}C$ irrespective of the salinity and the attachment time increased continuously with increasing water temperature. Experimental results showed that optimum development and survival temperature of the egg and larvae of A. aspersa were in the range of $20-22^{\circ}C$ regardless of the salinity conditions. The results can be used to predict the distribution and occurrence of A. aspersa, and to prevent economic damages caused by its spread.

The seasonal fluctuation of the large 28-spotted lady beetle, Henosepilachna vigintioctomaculata (Motschulsky), was observed in potato fields of Gangneung region, Gangwondo Province. The effects of their leaf consumption over a 24 hour period and developmental periods by different temperatures were investigated, and then the developmental threshold (DT) and effective cumulative temperature (ET) of each stage were calculated. Various developmental stages of H. vigintioctomaculata were captured in the fields from May to September, with three peaks in late May, late June, and late August. Leaf consumption by larval stages increased with the development of instar. The 4th instar larvae consumed potato leaves much more than other stages. Egg hatchability and emergence rate of H. vigintioctomaculata were lower at $10^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$, but higher at around $20{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. The developmental periods of each stage became shorter as temperature increased; 90 days at $10^{\circ}C$, 40 days at $20^{\circ}C$ and 25 days at $25^{\circ}C$. Base on developmental velocity to temperature, calculated DT and ET were $7.3^{\circ}C$ and 83.

The development of OrientaL tobacco budworm (OTE), Heticoverpa assulta, was studied at seven constant temperatures from 18 to $33^{\circ}C$ with a 14L : 10D photoperiod on the artificial diet. The egg, larval, and pupal duration comprised ca. 10, 48, and 42% of the total developmental time (from egg to adult emergence). The lower developmental threshold temperatures for egg, larval, pupal, and overall development were 8.62, 12.65, 11.64, and $11.89^{\circ}C$, respectively. The biophysical model of Sharpe & DeMichele (1977) provided a good description of OTB's development as a function of temperature ($r^2$=0.993~O.996). The Wmbull distribution was fitted to cumulative frequency distributions of normalized developmental times for each developmental stage of OTE ($r^2$== 0.987 ~0.999).

Fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, is a invasive migratory pest of native to the tropical and sub-tropical regions that has recently invaded Korea with damage to cornfield. The study was conducted to investigate the development periods of S. frugiperda on artificial diet at six different temperatures. The developmental period from eggs to adult at 18, 21, 24, 27, 30 and 32℃ was 79.8, 54.2, 34.3, 28.4, 24.6 and 24.0 days, respectivery and decreased with increasing temperature. The pupal periods of females were shorter than males. Most of the larvae developed through six instar, but the ratio of 7 or more instar increased at low temperatures. The relationship between the development rate and temperature was fitted with by linear regression analysis. The lower development threshold for egg and larva development was 12.9℃ and 11.3℃, respectively, 12.6℃ for pupae and 11.8℃ for egg-to-adult development. The effective accumulative temperature for the development of the respective life cycle stages were 37.0 DD for eggs, 286.3 DD for larvae, 132.2 DD for pupae and 456.8 DD egg-to-adult development.

Analyzing electrical degradation of polycrystalline silicon transistor to applicable at several environment is very important issue. In this research, after fabricating p channel poly crystalline silicon TFT (thin film transistor) electrical characteristics were compare and analized that changed by gate bias with first measurement. As a result on and off current was reduced by variation of gate bias and especially re duce ratio of off current was reduced by $7.1{\times}10^1$. On/off current ratio, threshold voltage and electron mobility increased. Also, when channel length gets shorter on/off current ratio was increased more and thresh old voltage increased less. It was cause due to electron trap and de-trap to gate silicon oxide by variation of gate bias.

To integrate the sensor driver and logic circuits, fabricating down scaled transistors has been main issue. At this research, short channel effects were analyzed after n channel polycrystalline silicon thin film transistor was fabricated at high temperature. As a result, on current, on/off current ratio and transconductance were increased but threshold voltage, electron mobility and s-slope were reduced with a decrease of channel length. When carriers that develop at grain boundary in activated polycrystalline silicon have no gate biased, on current was increased with punch through by drain current. Also, due to BJT effect (parallel bipolar effect) that developed under region of channel by increase of gate voltage on current was rapidly increased.

The Chinese windmill butterfly, Atrophaneura alcinous, is an important butterfly for exhibition in butterfly garden. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of temperature on A. alcinous in the laboratory. Development of A. alcinous reared on leaves of Aristolochia contorta was investigated at five constant the laboratory condition (20, 22.5, 25, 27.5 and $30^{\circ}C$) and at relative humidity of 60% with a photoperiod of 14:10 (L:D). Temperatures have been suggested as an important determinant of developmental rate, lifespan and mortality in invertebrates. As the temperature increased, the length of the developmental period gradually decreased. The developmental time (pupation) from egg hatching to pupation was respectively 25.8, 23.6, 19.6, 15.5, and 12.9 days at the temperatures of 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5 and $30^{\circ}C$. And pupation was respectively 40.0, 30.0, 63.4, 50.0, 23.3% at the temperatures of 20, 22.5, 25, 27.5 and $30^{\circ}C$. The developmental threshold temperature estimated for egg-to-pupae was 10.8, with a thermal constant of 230.4 degree-days. Therefore, the optimal developmental temperature for A. alninous was determined to be $25^{\circ}C$. To compare the effects of the total duration of chilling on the termination of diapause, larvae were subjected to a temperature of $8^{\circ}C$ from 60 to 120 days. The rate of termination of diapause was significantly higher at 60 days compared to other incubation period.

In this work, the temperature dependence of electrical parameters of nanoscale SOI (silicon-on-insulator) TG (triple gate) n-FinFET (n-channel Fin field effect transistor) was investigated. Numerical device simulator $ATLAS^{TM}$ was used to construct, examine, and simulate the structure in three dimensions with different models. The drain current, transconductance, threshold voltage, subthreshold swing, leakage current, drain induced barrier lowering, and on/off current ratio were studied in various biasing configurations. The temperature dependence of the main electrical parameters of a SOI TG n-FinFET was analyzed and discussed. Increased temperature led to degraded performance of some basic parameters such as subthreshold swing, transconductance, on-current, and leakage current. These results might be useful for further development of devises to strongly down-scale the manufacturing process.

A new algorithm was developed, not only to detect the existence of a thermocline, but also to extract the thermocline parameters (such as thermocline thickness, mixed layer thickness, maximum temperature gradient, and temperature difference of thermocline), using the vertical profile of water temperature. According to Kappa analysis, in order to find adequate threshold values of vertical water temperature gradients ${\Delta}T$ ($^{\circ}C/m$), agreement and reliability were 87% and 0.74 respectively, in the conditions of maximum ${\Delta}T{\geq}0.5$ and surface and bottom layers ${\Delta}T<{\mid}0.2{\mid}$. Also, three different kinds of methods, viz. 1. Gradient method, 2. Hyperbolic tangent method, and 3. Differential hyperbolic tangent method, were tested to extract the key parameters of a thermocline. Comparing the results of three different methods, the differential hyperbolic tangent method was the most appropriate to extract the start and end point of a thermocline curve.

Thermal stress of livestock has been issued due to recent climate change trends and this causes reproductive disorders, decreased feed consumption, immunosuppression, and increased mortality of animals. Concept of THI has been widely used to quantitatively evaluate the degree of thermal stress for animals, however use of this concept is restricted for animals living in the enclosed facilities such as mechanically ventilated broiler houses. In this study, time-based internal energy flow and variation trends of temperature and humidity were analyzed based on BES technique. Local weather data, insulation characteristics of building materials, heat and moisture generation rate from broilers according to age, algorithm of ventilation operation were adopted for boundary condition of the model to accurately compute THI values inside the mechanically ventilated broiler house. From the BES computation, excess frequency of THI threshold in Jeju city was highest on the assumption that air conditioning equipments were not installed. When general raising density ($39kg\;m^{-2}$) was adopted, total 2,191 hours were exceeded. Excess hours of THI threshold were strongly related to the cumulative air temperature ($R^2=0.87$).
