In this study, we report genetic characterization of Orobanche cumana, the causal agent of sunflower wilting in Serbia. The genetic diversity of this parasitic plant in Serbia was not studied before. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers and partial rbcL gene sequences analysis were used to characterize the O. cumana populations at the molecular level. While phylogenetic analyses of RAPD-PCR amplicons were performed using unweighted pair-group Method analyses, rbcL gene sequences were analyzed using neigbor joining method and minimum spanning tree. Molecular analyses of RAPD-PCR analysis revealed high genetic diversity of O. cumana populations which indicated high adaptive potential of this parasitic weed in Serbia. Further analyses of rbcL gene using minimum spanning tree revealed clear differences among diverse sections of Orobanche genus. Although this molecular marker lacked the resolution to display intrapopulation diversity it could be a useful tool for understanding the evolution of this parasitic plant. Our results suggested that O. cumana has great genetic potential which can lead to differentiation of more virulent races which is important for determining crop breeding strategies for their control.

Agricultural environmental policies to reduce negative externalities and expand positive externalities became common around the world. However, literature regarding the efficient and effective implementation of agricultural environmental policies, such as optional direct payment, is limited. This study, thus, analyzes the relative importance for target selecting-criteria in order to enhance the cost-effectiveness of the Agricultural Environment Conservation Program in Korea. In this context, we conducted survey to 15 experts who are related in agricultural environment policies and analyzed survey results based on ANP method which can consider correlation between selecting criteria. The results show that, in the case field, "soil", "water", and "ecology" field have relative high importance than the other fields. Also, the relative importance for 'improving rural landscape', 'giving nutrient input moderately', and 'conserving agricultural heritage' activities is higher than the other activities. Furthermore, the relative importance among fields and activities of ANP is different from those of AHP. This result implies that it is necessary to consider the correlation between selecting criteria in order to design effectively. Finally, we suggest that in order to enhance the effectiveness of the program, it would be appropriate to assign differential points according to the importance of each activity when identifying appropriate farms.

Wearable biosensors have the potential to non-invasively and continuously monitor seniors' stress in their daily interaction with the urban environment, thereby enabling to address the stress and ultimately advance their outdoor mobility. However, current wearable biosensor-based stress detection methods have several drawbacks in field application due to their dependence on batch-learning algorithms. First, these methods train a single classifier, which might not account for multiple subjects' different physiological reactivity to stress. Second, they require a great deal of computational power to store and reuse all previous data for updating the signle classifier. To address this issue, we tested the feasibility of online multi-task learning (OMTL) algorithms to identify multiple seniors' stress from electrodermal activity (EDA) collected by a wristband-type biosensor in a daily trip setting. As a result, OMTL algorithms showed the higher test accuracy (75.7%, 76.2%, and 71.2%) than a batch-learning algorithm (64.8%). This finding demonstrates that the OMTL algorithms can strengthen the field applicability of the wearable biosensor-based stress detection, thereby contributing to better understanding the seniors' stress in the urban environment and ultimately advancing their mobility.

This study is aimed to prepare the effective detail survey methods(Phase II) of abandoned metal mines through the contamination assessment for mine types and facilities in the abandoned metal mine areas. The study sites of 12 abandoned mines are located in Gyeonggi-do and Gangwon-do and those were chosen among 310 sites that the Phase II survey was conducted from 2007 to 2009 after considering the results of Phase I for abandoned mines scattered all over the country. 12 study sites were classified into four types; Type I sites only have pit mouth. Type II sites have pit mouth and mine-waste field. Type III sites have pit mouth and tailing sorting field. Type IV sites have pit mouth, tailing sorting field and concentrator(s). In forest land, paddy soil and farm land of Type I, As and Cd were showed average concentration, and Cu and Pb were high on the pit mouth area in one mines where the pit mouth was developed within 500 m. In the mines of Type II, Cu and Pb were showed average concentration too, but As and Cd were slightly high in pit mouth and mine-waste field. The mines of Type III which had grinding particle process through physical separation milling or hitting showed similar tendency with Type II. However, mines of Type IV pit mouth, mine-waste field and showed various results depending on defining the contamination sources. For example, if contamination source was pit mouth, the mixed results of Type I, II, II were showed. In tailing sorting field which was regarded as the most important source and having high mobility, however, if there were no facilities or it was difficult to access directly, field sampling was missed occasionally during phase I and phase II survey. For that reason, the assessment for tailing sorting field is missed and it leads to completely different results. In the areas of Type I mines, the concentration of heavy metals exceeded precautionary standards of soil contamination or not within 1,000 meters of pit mouth. Nickel(Ni) was the largest factor of the heavy metal contamination in this type. The heavy metals except Arsenic(As) were shown high levels of concentration in Type II areas, where pit mouth and mine-waste field were operated for making powder in upriver region; therefore, to the areas in the vicinity of midstream and downstream, the high content of heavy metals were shown. The tendency of high level of heavy metals and toxic materials contained in flotation agent used during sorting process were found in soil around sorting and tailing field. In the abandoned-pit-mouth area, drygrinding area and tailing sorting field area, the content of Cupper(Cu) and Zinc(Zn) were higher than other areas. Also, the contaminated area were larger than mine reclamation area(2,000 m) and the location of tailing sorting field was one of the important factors to estimate contaminated area.

위성항법시스템의 안정적인 항법정보 제공에 대한 요구사항은 점차 증가하고 있지만, 의도적인 전파교란 및 자연환경 변화에 의한 성능 저하는 현실적으로 완벽히 해결하기 어렵다. 이러한 위성항법 시스템의 단점을 보완하기 위한 대표적인 항법시스템으로 고출력 신호를 이용한 지상파항법시스템인 eLoran이 주목받고 있고, 의도적인 전파교란에 강인하다는 장점이 있다. 사용자는 eLoran 시스템에서 사용 환경에 따라 E-field 또는 H-field 수신 안테나 중에서 적합한 것을 사용한다. 안정적인 접지 연결에 대한 제약이 없고, 상대적으로 주변 전자장비의 잡음에 강인한 H-field 안테나는 두 개의 루프로 구성되어 루프 간의 위상과 이득차이로 인해 등방성을 가지지 못한다. 그러므로 H-field 안테나는 정지위치에서도 수신한 신호의 방향에 따라 측정치의 변화가 발생하는 단점이 있고, 보다 정확한 측위 결과를 위해서는 신호의 방향에 따른 오차를 제거해야한다. 본 논문에서는 H-field 안테나와 송신국간의 기하학적 방향에 따른 오차를 제거하기 위한 지향성 보상기법을 제안하였다. eLoran 모의 신호생성기를 활용하여 오차를 분석하고 모델링하여 보상하는 기법을 개발하였고, 시뮬레이션과 차량실험을 통해 제안한 기법의 성능을 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 U-시차 지도(U-disparity map)와 정방향-역방향 에러 제거를 통하여 자동차 환경에서의 새로운 모션 필드 예측기법을 제안한다. 일반적으로 자동차에 장착된 카메라로 획득된 영상에서는 자동차의 움직임에 따라 모션 벡터가 발생하게 된다. 그러나 이러한 모션 벡터는 주변 환경에 영향을 받기 때문에 정확도가 떨어진다. 특히 도로면에서는 인접한 화소값이 유사하기 때문에 정확한 모션 벡터의 추출이 어렵다. 따라서 제안하는 기법에서는 U-시차 지도를 이용하여 도로면을 제거하고 나머지 부분에 대하여 옵티컬 플로우(optical flow)를 수행한다. 또한 모션 벡터의 정확도를 향상시키기 위해 정방향-역방향 에러 제거 방법을 활용한다. 최종적으로 획득한 모션 벡터에 RANSAC(RANdom SAmple Consensus)을 적용하여 차량의 움직임을 예측하고 모션 필드를 생성한다. 실험을 통해 제안하는 기법이 기존의 기법보다 성능이 우수한 것을 확인하였다.

Currently, the pursuit of industrialization for rapid economic growth has led to serious environmental damage and related problems because of comtamination with chemicals. Over time, this contaminaion is getting worse and worse. Most developing countries have tried to pursue their economic development and growth, however without preparation for the control and disposal of hazardous wastes. Permitting hazardous waste to be abandoned and disposed in appropriately causes soil pollution, groundwater contamination, and surface water contamination, which are all extremely serious. In particular, when hazardous wastes which include toxic chemicals are distributed around the living environment even in small amounts, concentration can occur in the food chain through ecological systems, which can therefore affect human. Chromium(VI) has contaminated soil in China. We experimented to test the immobilization, chemical reduction, and soil washing methods in order to make our experiment efficient in the purification of soil contaminated with Chromium(VI), and to prove the theoretical models by experiments testing the field applications. The field experiment showed that result of experiment satisfied with the standards of China. The result of multi-stage continuous remediation reduce the Chromium(VI) concentration to 11.95 mg/kg and 14.83 mg/kg that were equivalent to 98% and 97% removal rates. This result implied we could apply multi-stage process of Chromium(VI) contaminated soil to meet the regulatory limit of Chromium(VI).

유속의 변화에 따른 오일펜스 만곡부 후면의 속도장과 압력장, 와도 및 난류 강도를 계측한 PIV 실험의 결과 유속이 증가함에 따라 유동 경계역의 후면부에서의 흐름 방향이 전면부의 흐름 방향에 가까워지는 현상이 나타났고, 압력 분포의 양상이 달라졌으며 난류도 더욱 불규칙적인 형태로 나타났다. PIV 실험과 동일 조건으로 수행한 CFD 해석 결과, 후류의 유동 패턴이 0.3m/s이하의 저속인 경우는 PIV 실험 결과와 유사하게 나타났으나, 유속이 0.4m/s일 때는 오일펜스 자체의 유연성으로 인해 다소 차이가 나타났고, 오일펜스 하단의 압력차로 인한 불규칙한 난류가 수면까지 영향을 주었다.
