Land surface temperature (LST) is a one of the key variables of land surface which can be estimated from geostationary meteorological satellite. In this study, we have developed the three sets of LST retrieval algorithm from MTSAT-2 data through the radiative transfer simulations under various atmospheric profiles (TIGR data), satellite zenith angle, spectral emissivity, and surface lapse rate conditions using MODTRAN 4. The three LST algorithms are daytime, nighttime and total LST algorithms. The weighting method based on the solar zenith angle is developed for the consistent retrieval of LST at the early morning and evening time. The spectral emissivity of two thermal infrared channels is estimated by using vegetation coverage method with land cover map and 15-day normalized vegetation index data. In general, the three LST algorithms well estimated the LST without regard to the satellite zenith angle, water vapour amount, and surface lapse rate. However, the daytime LST algorithm shows a large bias especially for the warm LST (> 300 K) at day time conditions. The night LST algorithm shows a relatively large error for the LST (260 ~ 280K) at the night time conditions. The sensitivity analysis showed that the performance of weighting method is clearly improved regardless of the impacting conditions although the improvements of the weighted LST compared to the total LST are quite different according to the atmospheric and surface lapse rate conditions. The validation results of daytime (nighttime) LST with MODIS LST showed that the correlation coefficients, bias and RMSE are about 0.62~0.93 (0.44~0.83), -1.47~1.53 (-1.80~0.17), and 2.25~4.77 (2.15~4.27), respectively. However, the performance of daytime/nighttime LST algorithms is slightly degraded compared to that of the total LST algorithm.

한반도의 329개 지진자료에 대하여 S파 감쇠상수의 고유치 분리를 Multiple Lapse Time Window Method(MLTW)법으로 수행하였다. 균일한 속도구조에서 고유감쇠 $Q_i^{-1}$ 값은 S파 직접파와 코다파의 진폭을 감쇠시키고, 산란감 쇠 $Q_s^{-1}$ 값은 S파 직접파는 감쇠시키는 반면 코다파는 증폭시킨다. MLTW법은 해석적인 방법으로 이론곡선을 구하여 관 측값과 최소제곱오차를 이루는 고유 및 산란감쇠를 구하는 방법이다. 지금까지 한반도와 같은 지진 안정지대에서의 MLTW 법 적용연구는 행하여진 바 없는데, MLTW법에 의한 한반도의 $Q_i^{-1}$과 $Q_s^{-1}$ 값은 5 Hz 이하에서 매우 낮은 값이 도출되어 이는 한반도와 같은 지진 안정지대의 값을 반영하는 것으로 풀이된다.

This study was designed to elucidate the distribution of the immunoglobulins in the experimentally induced rat periapical lesions. The pulp exposure was performed in 80 molars from 40 rats and the animals were sacrificed at 15, 30, 60 and 90 days after the operation and examined and radiographed. Of the 80 samples, 56 samples were routinely sectioned ($4-6{\mu}$ in thickness) and stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin for the light microscopic examination and 50 samples were stained with toluidin blue for mast cells and 50 samples were stained using the Avidin-Biotin horseradish peroxidase for detecting the presence of Ig A, Ig E, Ig M and Ig G containing cells. The following results were obtained : 1. The periapical lesions could be observed in all of 80 teeth by radiogragh (100%) and the periapical lesions were detected in 50 samples of 51 samples by light microscopy (98%). The size of lesions increased with time lapse both by radiograph and by light microscopy(p<0.05). 2. Of the 50 samples, 19 samples were diagnosed as periapical abscesses, 18 as periapical granulomas, 10 as fibrous scar tissues and 3 cysts. 3. After pulp exposure, periapical granulomas were developed mostly in the 15 day group, with time lapse periapical abscesses and fibrous scar tissues increased. 4. In the 50 periapical lesions, the numbers of Ig G containing cell (57.2%) were prominent and the percentage of Ig A, Ig E and Ig M containing cells were 16.4%, 14.7% and 11.8% respectively. The numbers of all classes of immunoglobulin containing cell were highest in the periapical granulomas and lowest in the cysts(p<0.05). 5. The number of the mast cell and immunoglobulin containing cells decreased generally with time lapse after the pulp exposure and Ig A, Ig E, Ig M and Ig G containing cells and mast cells had the high correlation one another(>0.6).

Background Simulation training is becoming an increasingly important component of skills acquisition in surgical specialties, including Plastic Surgery. Non-living simulation models have an established place in Plastic Surgical microsurgery training, and support the principles of replacement, reduction and refinement of animal use. A more sophisticated version of the basic chicken thigh microsurgery model has been developed to include dissection of a type 1-muscle flap and is described and validated here. Methods A step-by-step dissection guide on how to perform the chicken thigh adductor profundus free muscle flap is demonstrated. Forty trainees performed the novel simulation muscle flap on the last day of a 5-day microsurgery course. Pre- and post-course microvascular anastomosis assessment, along with micro dissection and end product (anastomosis lapse index) assessment, demonstrated skills acquisition. Results The average time to dissect the flap by novice trainees was $82{\pm}24$ minutes, by core trainees $90{\pm}24$ minutes, and by higher trainees $64{\pm}21$ minutes (P=0.013). There was a statistically significant difference in the time to complete the anastomosis between the three levels of training (P=0.001) and there was a significant decrease in the time taken to perform the anastomosis following course completion (P<0.001). Anastomosis lapse index scores improved for all cohorts with post-test average anastomosis lapse index score of $3{\pm}1.4$ (P<0.001). Conclusions The novel chicken thigh adductor profundus free muscle flap model demonstrates face and construct validity for the introduction of the principles of free tissue transfer. The low cost, constant, and reproducible anatomy makes this simulation model a recommended addition to any microsurgical training curriculum.

Red algal fertilization is unusual and offers a different model to the mechanism of intracellular transport of nuclei and polyspermy blocking. A female carpogonium (egg) undergoes plasmogamy with many spermatia (sperm) simultaneously at the receptive structure, trichogyne, which often contains numerous male nuclei. The pattern of selective transport of a male nucleus to the female nucleus, located in the cell body of the carpogonium, remain largely unknown. We tracked the movement of spermatial nuclei and cell organelles in the trichogyne after plasmogamy using time-lapse videography and fluorescent probes. The fertilization process of Bostrychia moritziana is composed of five distinctive stages: 1) gamete-gamete binding; 2) mitosis in the attached spermatia; 3) formation of a fertilization channel; 4) migration of spermatial nuclei into the trichogyne; and 5) cutting off of the trichogyne cytoplasm from the rest of the cell after karyogamy. Our results showed that actin microfilaments were involved in the above steps of fertilization, microtubules are involved only in spermatial mitosis. Time-lapse videography showed that the first ("primary") nucleus which entered to trichogyne moved quickly to the base of carpogonium and fused with the female nucleus. The transport of the primary male nucleus to the egg nucleus was complete before its second nucleus migrated into the trichogyne. Male nuclei from other spermatia stopped directional movement soon after the first one entered the carpogonial base and oscillated near where they entered trichogyne. The cytoplasm of the trichogyne was cut off at a narrow neck connecting the trichogyne and carpogonial base after gamete nuclear fusion but gamete binding and plasmogamy continued on the trichogyne. Spermatial organelles, including mitochondria, entered the trichogyne together with the nuclei but did not show any directional movement and remained close to where they entered. These results suggest that polyspermy blocking in B. moritziana is achieved by the selective and rapid transport of the first nucleus entered trichogyne and the rupture of the trichogyne after gamete karyogamy.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilization with embryo transfer between embryos cultured in a time-lapse monitoring system (TLS) and those cultured in a conventional incubator (CI). Methods: The medical records of 250 fertilized embryos from 141 patients undergoing infertility treatment with assisted reproductive technology at a tertiary hospital from June 2018 to May 2020 were reviewed. The study population was divided into TLS and CI groups at a 1 to 1 ratio (125 embryos per group). The primary outcome was the live birth rate. Results: The TLS group had a significantly higher clinical pregnancy rate (46.4% vs. 27.2%, p=0.002), implantation rate (27.1% vs. 12.0%, p=0.004), and live birth rate (32.0% vs. 18.4%, p=0.013) than the CI group. Furthermore, subgroup analyses of the clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate in the different age groups favored the TLS group. However, this difference only reached statistical significance in the live birth rate in women aged over 40 years and the clinical pregnancy rate in women aged 35-40 years (p=0.048 and p=0.031, respectively). The miscarriage rate, cleavage rate, and blastocyst rate were comparable. Conclusion: TLS application improved the live birth rate, implantation rate, and clinical pregnancy rate, particularly in the advanced age group in this study, while the other reproductive outcomes were comparable. Large randomized controlled trials are needed to further explore the ramifications of these findings, especially in different age groups.

In this paper, the natural convection in a square enclosure, partly heated from below, with two adiabatic vertical wall and one upper horigental wall is studied nomerically. In numerical study, SIMPLE(Semi-Implicit for Pressure Linked Equation) algorithems are applied for the integration of momentum and energy equation. The grid size used in this study is the coordinates of size (22$\times$22). As a result of numerical analysis, the initial fluid flow depends on the thermal diffusion, but, as time passes, the fluid flow depends on convection and buoyancy of the enclosure. In Case 1, the heating region was been in the central position of the bottom wall. In case 2, the heating region was in the left position of the bottom. In case of Case 1, the lapse time of sensing the temperature of 72$^{\circ}C$ is approximately 15 sec almost at the same time in the coordinates (6, 22), (11, 22). In case of Case 2, the lapse time in the coordinates (6, 22), (11, 22) was 27 sec, 25 sec repectively. Also in case of Case 1 or Case 2, the gradients of y-position of the two sensors are transposed each other.

In this study, to observe aging effect of undrained shear behavior for Nak-Dong River sand, undrained static and cyclic triaxial tests were performed with changing relative density ($D_r$), consolidation stress ratio($K_c$) and consolidation time. As a result of the test, the modulus of elasticity to all samples estimated within elastic zone by the micro strain of about 0.05% in case of static shear behavior increased with the lapse of consolidation time significantly, so aging effect was shown largely. Also strength of phase transformation point(S_{PT}$) and strength of critical stress ratio point($S_{CSR}$) increased with the lapse of consolidation time. Undrained cyclic shear strength($R_f$) obtained from the failure strain 5% increased in proportion to relative density($D_r$) and initial static shear stress($q_{st}$), $R_f$ of consolidated sample for 1,000 minutes increased about 10.6% compared to that for 10 minutes at the loose sand, and $R_f$ increased about 7.0% at the medium sand. In situ application range of $R_f$ to the magnitude of earthquake for Nak-Dong River sand was proposed by using a increasing rate of $R_f$ as being aging effect shown from this test result.

장기적인 관점에서 띠 산화탄소 지중처리는 대기 중의 온실 가스를 제거하는 가장 효과적인 방법 중 하나이다. 본 해설에서는, 이산화탄소 지존처리를 위한 세 가지 모니터링 프로젝트에 대해 살펴보고자 한다. 먼저 북해 Sleipner West 필드의 경우로, 여기에서는 염류대수층에 이산화탄소를 주입하고, 해수면에서 반복적으로 탄성파탐사를 실시하였다. 이를 통해, 대수층 내에서 이산화탄소 기포가 확산된 범위와 형태를 파악하였다. 다음은 Weyburn 유전의 경우로, 복잡한 파쇄 구조로 된 탄산염 저류층에 대규모의 이산화탄소를 주입하고 있던 이 유전에서 시간 경과에 따른 고해상도 P파 탐사를 실시하여 각기 다른 암석으로 이루어진 두 지층 사이의 이산화탄소 거동특성을 파악하였다. 마지막으로, 미국 캘리포니아 중부에 위치한 Lost Hills 유전의 경우는 시간 경과에 따라 시추공간 전자탐사 영상화 기법을 적용하여 동일한 시추공에서 얻은 유도 검층 자료와 잘 일치하는 전기전도도 영상을 얻고, 전기전도도가 시간 경과에 따라 감소하는 것으로부터 이산화탄소가 염수를 대체했다는 사실을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 시간차 탄성파 탐사에 대한 천부지하구조의 영향을 분석하기 위해 반복적인 수치모형실험을 이용하였다. 수치 실험의 목적은 Otway 분지에 있는 Naylor 지역에서 $CO_2$ 격리를 목적으로 수행 된 현장 실험에서 관찰된 주요한 산란파들을 재생성하는 것이다. 특히, 수포화도를 변화시켜 가면서 상부토양과 심부의 주름진 점토/석회암 경계면의 탄성 성질들의 변화를 관찰하였다. 이러한 실험을 통해서 건기 빛 우기 계절에 행해진 측정치를 모사하였고, 계절의 변화가 탄성파 측정에 미치는 영향을 비반복성 관점에서 평가하였다. 이 영향들에 대한 정량화와 각각의 기여도를 측정하기 위해서 탄성파 파동방정식을 이용한 수치모델링이 수행되었다. 수치모델링 결과는 천부의 점토/석회암의 주름진 경계면에서의 상대적으로 간단한 분산 효과등이 시간차 탐사에 대한 상당한 영향을 미침을 보여주었다. 또한, 상부 토양에서의 포화도의 변화는 심지어 심부의 주름진 경계면보다도 더 탄성파 신호에 잠재적으로 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 현장에서 측정된 반복된 (시간차) 2차원 탄성파탐사 자료들 사이의 정규화원 RMS(Root-mean-square) 차이와 수치적으로 계산된 차이와의 전체적인 일치는 더 많은 연구가 필요함을 알 수 있다. 향후 진행될 연구는 micro VSP 배영과 매우 조밀한 굴절법 탐사를 이용해서 풍화 지역의 탄성 성질을 현장에서 측정하는 것이다. 본 연구의 결과는 중풍이냐 호주와 같이 카르스트 지형으로 생산에 어려움이 따르는 지역의 석유 생산 영상화와 같은 $CO_2$ 지중격리와 상관이 없는 분야에도 효과가 있을 것이다.
