Photochemical reactions are important for the diurnal variation of the concentrations of air pollutants in the urban atmosphere. A photochemical reaction model was developed, which includes in terms of the effective chemical reaction. Various experimental results were introduced to the construction of model. To verify the applicability of the model, the simulated results were compared with those observed. By comparing the simulated results with those observed, it was shown that those two are in good agreement qualitatively. As a result, the photochemical reaction model which has been developed in this study is found to be useful for the prediction of concentrations of air pollutants in the atmosphere.

Changes of the surface area and the volume of limb are important factors for designing clothes and shoes. The limb volume increases slightly in the afternoon in general, because of human activity, as a diurnal variation. Changes are also associated with menstrual cycle, pregnancy, physical exercise and environmental temperature. The most effective method for measuring the surface area of limb is the paper replacement method.

The diurnal variations of $O_3$ and $NO_2$ in an urban park and the effects of air temperature and wind speed on the diurnal variations are investigated. $O_3$ and $NO_2$ concentrations were observed at a site in an urban park of Seoul from 27 July 2015 to 9 August 2015. The $O_3$ and $NO_2$ concentrations observed in the urban park are compared to those observed at the Gangnam air quality monitoring station (AQMS). The $O_3$ concentration is higher in the urban park than at the Gangnam AQMS in the daytime because the amount of $O_3$ dissociated by NO is smaller as well as partly because the amount of $O_3$ produced in the oxidation process of biogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is larger in the urban park than at the Gangnam AQMS. The $NO_2$ concentration is lower in the urban park than at the Gangnam AQMS during day and night because the observation site in the urban park is relatively far from roads where $NO_x$ is freshly emitted from vehicles. The difference in $NO_2$ concentration is larger in the daytime than in the nighttime. To examine the effects of air temperature and wind speed on the diurnal variations of $O_3$ and $NO_2$, the observed $O_3$ and $NO_2$ concentrations are classified into high or low air temperature and high or low wind speed days. The high $O_3$ and $NO_2$ concentrations in the daytime appear for the high air temperature and low wind speed days. This is because the daytime photochemical processes are favorable when the air temperature is high and the wind speed is low. The scatter plots of the daytime maximum $O_3$ and minimum $NO_2$ concentrations versus the daytime averages of air temperature and wind speed show that the daytime maximum $O_3$ and minimum $NO_2$ concentrations tend to increase as the air temperature increases or the wind speed decreases. The daytime maximum $O_3$ concentration is more sensitive to the changes in air temperature and wind speed in the urban park than at the Gangnam AQMS.

This paper presents seasonal variation of $PM_{10}$ over five urban sites in Sabah, Malaysia for the period of January through December 2012. The variability of $PM_{10}$ along with the diurnal and weekly cycles of CO, $NO_2$, $SO_2$, and $O_3$ at Kota Kinabalu site were also discussed to investigate the possible sources for increased $PM_{10}$ concentration at the site. This work is crucial to understand the behaviour and possible sources of $PM_{10}$ in the urban atmosphere of Sabah region. In Malaysia, many air pollution studies in the past focused in west Peninsular, but very few local studies were dedicated for Sabah region. This work aims to fill the gap by presenting the descriptive statistics on the variability of $PM_{10}$ concentration in the urban atmosphere of Sabah. To further examine its diurnal and weekly cycle pattern, its responses towards the variations of CO, $NO_2$, $SO_2$, and ozone were also investigated. The highest mean value of $PM_{10}$ for the whole study period is seen from Tawau ($35.7{\pm}17.8{\mu}g\;m^{-3}$), while the lowest is from Keningau ($31.9{\pm}18.6{\mu}g\;m^{-3}$). The concentrations of $PM_{10}$ in all cities exhibited seasonal variations with the peak values occurred during the south-west monsoons. The $PM_{10}$ data consistently exhibited strong correlations with traffic related gaseous pollutants ($NO_2$, and CO), except for $SO_2$ and $O_3$. The analysis of diurnal cycles of $PM_{10}$ levels indicated that two peaks were associated during the morning and evening rush hours. The bimodal distribution of $PM_{10}$, CO, and $NO_2$ in the front and at the back of ozone peak is a representation of urban air pollution pattern. In the weekly cycle, higher $PM_{10}$, CO, and $NO_2$ concentrations were observed during the weekday when compared to weekend. The characteristics of $NO_2$ concentration rationed to CO and $SO_2$ suggests that mobile sources is the dominant factor for the air pollution in Kota Kinabalu; particularly during weekdays.

전라남도 완도 연안 해역은 전복양식이 중요하고 최근 해상가두리 양식이 보편화되어 전복사육과 폐사에 중요한 수온의 변동을 이해할 필요가 있다. 완도해역에 위치한 신지도, 청산도의 2005년부터 2009년까지 연속자동관측 수온자료를 이용하여 완도 양식장 해역의 수온 변동 특성을 분석하였다. 연안에 가까운 신지도의 연간 수온변동 범위와 수온증가율이 청산도에 비해 크게 나타났으며, 수심이 낮은 연안 해역에서 하계 태양복사열에 의한 가열과 동계의 냉각에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. 또한 추계의 수온 감소율이 춘계의 상승률보다 컸고, 하계에 조석 주기의 단주기 수온변동이 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 급격한 수온변화에 해당하는 큰 수온일교차는 청산도에서 크게 나타났다. 수온 자료로 판단한 전복양식장은 외해에 위치한 청산도가 연안보다 더 적절한 해역으로 판단된다.

Diurnal changes in levels of endogenous gibberellins(GAs) were investigated in three rice cultivars i.e. Sangjubyeo, Shingeumobyeo(photo-neutral) and Chucheongbyeo(photosensitive). The rice cultivars were grown under a 12-hr photoperiod and endogenous GA levels were assayed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS-SIM) every 3 h for 24 h. The endogenous bioactive $GA_1$ and its immediate precursor $GA_{20}$ contents were significantly different in both photosensitive and photo-neutral rice cultivars, though less pronounced differences were observed for endogenous $GA_{12},\;GA_{53},\;GA_{19}$, and $GA_8$ levels with in the three rice cultivars. The levels of bioactive $GA_1$ and its immediate precursor $GA_{20}$ were significantly higher in Chucheongbyeo than in the other two cultivars. In Chucheongbyeo, the $GA_1$ contents increased significantly from 11.00 to 17.00 o'clock, thus indicating a correlation with light. In Shingeumobyeo, $GA_1$ contents slightly increased during morning hours, while a similar hike in $GA_1$ contents was observed for Sangjubyeo during evening hours. $GA_{19}$ was found to be the most abundant GA form in the three rice cultivars. Our results suggested that GA production in rice depends upon the response potential of rice cultivars and that light positively correlated to GA production in photosensitive rice cultivar.

We examined diurnal and seasonal variations of ozone ($O_3$) concentrations and its relation to meteorological parameters observed at the Ieodo Ocean Research Station ($32.07^{\circ}N$, $125.10^{\circ}E$, 36 m above sea level) during June 2003 and May 2005. Over the 2-year period, the mean ozone concentration was $49.5{\pm}15.5\;ppbv$. Ozone concentrations show great variability with a monthly mean up to 68.2 ppbv in May 2005 and seasonal variations with being highest in spring and fall, and lowest in summer. However, the amplitude of diurnal variation was less than ${\sim}4\;ppbv$ with a maximum at $3{\sim}4\;p.m.$ and minimum at $7{\sim}8\;a.m.$ HYSPLIT backward air trajectory indicated that the air masses with higher ozone came from the north or northwest and those with lower ozone arrived mainly via southerly or southeasterly. Ozone distributions at Ieodo Ocean Research Station were observed to be significantly impacted by long-range transport and regional scale air circulation.

Diurnal variations of air temperature and relative humidity in the Urban Canopy Layer (UCL) of the Seoul metropolitan area are examined using the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with the Seoul National University Urban Canopy Model. The canopy layer air temperature is higher than 2-m air temperature and exhibits a more rapid rise and an earlier peak in the daytime. These result from the multiple reflections of shortwave radiation and longwave radiation trapping due to the urban geometry. Because of the absence of vegetation in the UCL and the higher canopy layer air temperature, the canopy layer relative humidity is lower than 2-m relative humidity. Additional simulations with building height changes are conducted to examine the sensitivities of the canopy layer meteorological variables to the urban canyon aspect ratio. As the aspect ratio increases, net sensible heat flux entering the UCL increases (decreases) in the daytime (nighttime). However, the increase in the volume of the UCL reduces the magnitude of change rate of the canopy layer air temperature. As a result, the canopy layer air temperature generally decreases in the daytime and increases in the nighttime as the aspect ratio increases. The changes in the canopy layer relative humidity due to the aspect ratio change are largely determined by the canopy layer air temperature. As the aspect ratio increases, the canopy layer relative humidity is generally increased in the daytime and decreased in the nighttime, contrary to the canopy layer air temperature.
