Tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima Swingle) as an invasive alien plant, appeared usually in the disturbed locations such as road-side, incised slope, and trampling path-side. They appeared abundantly in the trampling pathside but they did not appear or were rare in the interior of forest. Density and importance value of tree of heaven were proportionate to the relative light intensity measured according to distance from the trampling path toward forest interior and closely related to the breadth of trampling path as well. They were associated with annual, other exotic species or ruderal plants well. Distributional pattern of mature trees of them in the study area and its surrounding environments implied that they were introduced intentionally. Size class distribution of them showed that they are in expansion and artificial interferences such as, installing physical training space and developing hiking course functioned as trigger factors in their invasion and expansion. The results support the facts known generally in relation to invasion and expansion of the invasive alien plants. In this viewpoint, we suggest a management plan that applies ecological restoration principles to address ecosystems infected with tree of heaven by restoring the integral feature of the degraded nature and conserving the remained nature more thoroughly.

$Gd_2O_3:Eu/Bi$ nanoparticles were synthesized via spray pyrolysis and applied for the preparation of a luminescent pearl pigment as an anti-counterfeiting material. The luminescence properties were optimized by changing the $Eu^{3+}$ and $Bi^{3+}$ concentration. Ethylene glycol was used as an organic additive to prepare the $Gd_2O_3:Eu/Bi$ nanoparticles. The highest emission intensity was achieved when the total dopant content was 10.0 at.% and the mole fraction of Bi was 0.1. The concentration quenching was mainly due to dipole-dipole interactions between the same activators, and the critical distances were 9.0 and $19.6{\AA}$ for $Eu^{3+}$ and $Bi^{3+}$, respectively. The prepared $Gd_2O_3:Eu/Bi$ powder exhibited an average size of approximately 82.5 nm and a narrow size distribution. Finally, the $Gd_2O_3:Eu/Bi$ nanophosphor coated on the surface of the pearl pigment was confirmed to have good red emission under irradiation from a portable ultraviolet light-emitting diode lamp (365 nm).

In this study, in order to analyze the low-temperature sintering process of silver and copper nanoparticles, we calculate their melting temperatures and surface melting temperatures with respect to particle size. For this calculation, we introduce the concept of mean-squared displacement of the atom proposed by Shi (1994). Using a parameter defined by the vibrational component of melting entropy, we readily obtained the surface and bulk melting temperatures of copper and silver nanoparticles. We also calculated the absorption cross-section of nanoparticles for variation in the wavelength of light. By using the calculated absorption cross-section of the nanoparticles at the melting temperature, we obtained the laser threshold energy for the sintering process with respect to particle size and wavelength of laser. We found that the absorption cross-section of silver nanoparticles has a resonant peak at a wavelength of close to 350 nm, yielding the lowest threshold energy. We calculated the intensity distribution around the nanoparticles using the finite-difference time-domain method and confirmed the resonant excitation of silver nanoparticles near the wavelength of the resonant peak.

We propose a generic method to calculate the optical functionalities of a 3D display with a lenticular lens array. In the present work, based on the geometrical optics, it is designed considering the specifications of the display panel. For the effective simulation, we first calculate the optical functionalities of a single cylindrical lens and, by comparing with the results obtained from the conventional geometrical optics, confirm the validity of the present method. Afterwards, we obtain the full distribution of the light intensity at an optimum viewing distance by expanding the results of the single lens to the horizontal plane of the display panel. From these results, we finally confirm whether the 3D images are realized or not in the system.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the relation of survival rates of seedling plants under grown orchardgrass populations and control by the difference cutting frequency. The orchardgrass populations investigated in this study have passed for 10 years after establishment. Cutting frequencies were 3, 4 and 5 times in a year. This experiment was conducted from April to October, 1989 at the experimental field of Institute of Agricultural Development, Yonsei University. The results are summarized as follows: 1. The survival rates of seedling plants decreased by the days after sowing. The final survival rates of seedling plants were 7.8%, 38.9% and 33.8% in 3, 4 and 5 cuttings, respectively. 2. Relative light intensity indicated highly possitive correlation with relative survival rates of seedling plants and negative correlation with plant length of orchardgrass populations in 4 and 5 cuttings. 3. The frequency distribution of survival seedling plants at 177 days after sowing were showed high values in seeding spots near the adjacent plants of 3 cutings, but in the middle of seeding spots between adjacent plants of 4 .and 5 cuttings, respectively. 4. The plant length of seedling became longer towards the seeding spots near the adjacent plants but the number of tillers increased slightly up to the middle of seeding spots between adjacent plants in all cutting frequencies.

In laser imaging, accurate extraction of the laser's center is essential. Several methods exist to extract the laser's center in an image, such as the geometric mean, the parabolic curve fitting, and the Gaussian curve fitting, etc. The Gaussian curve fitting is the most suitable because it is based on the physical properties of the laser. The width of the Gaussian laser beam depends on the distance from the laser source to the target object. It is assumed in general that the distance remains constant at a laser spot resulting in a symmetric Gaussian model for the laser image. However, on a curved surface of the object, the distance is not constant; The laser beam is narrower on the side closer to the focal point of the laser light and wider on the side closer to the laser source, which causes the distribution of the laser beam to skew. This study presents a modified Gaussian model in the laser imaging to incorporate the slant angle of a curved object. The proposed method is verified with simulation and experiments.

서양등골나물(Ageratina altissima)은 우리나라의 육상생태계를 교란시키는 외래종으로 알려져 있다. 교란 지역으로부터 그늘이 지는 숲 속으로 침입하는 것으로 알려져있으나, 한국에서 나타나는 서양등골나물의 분포 특성에 대해서는 양지와 음지에 대한 다양한 보고가 있다. 본 연구는 서울 우면산을 대상으로 광도 및 토양 특성과 서양등골나물의 분포의 관계, 등산로 주변 서양등골나물 분포 양상을 살펴보았다. 서양등골나물의 분포는 상대광도가 증가함에 따라 증가하고, 낙엽층이 깊어지면 감소하는 것으로 나타났다(p < 0.001). 서양등골나물은 우면산에서 주로 등산로 주변에서 분포하고 있었으며, 특히 등산로로부터 숲으로 10m 이내에 대부분이 분포하고 있었는데(p < 0.01), 이 지역은 빛과 임상 상태가 서양등골나물에게 유리한 지역이었다. 서양등골나물은 계곡보다는 능선에서 더 많이 분포하였으며, 지형에 따른 차이는 등산로로부터의 거리 10m를 전후로 한 9m, 12m 위치에서 가장 컸다(p < 0.05). 토양의 수분함량, 석력함량, pH 등은 서양등골나물의 분포와 뚜렷한 상관관계를 보이지 않는 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 서양등골나물이 다양한 토양 환경에 대한 적응성을 가지고 있다는 것을 알려주었다. 본 연구는 등산로가 외래종의 침입에 취약한 지역임을 보여주었으며, 향후 등산로 관리에서 외래종의 침입에 대한 대책의 필요성을 알려주었다.

VA Mode LC를 사용하는 Full-HD급 LCOS 마이크로디스플레이에서 셀 상하 간격의 변화에 따른 전기광학적 특성의 변화에 관하여 3차원 LC code를 이용하여 연구하였다. 5가지의 다른 셀 상하 간격 (1.4 ${\mu}m$, 1.8 ${\mu}m$, 2.1 ${\mu}m$, 2.4 ${\mu}m$ 그리고 2.8 ${\mu}m$)의 변화에 따라 Reflectance-Voltage 특성, 반사광 및 반사율 분포, Optical Fill Factor 그리고 명암비를 비교하였다. Surface Anchoring 효과에 의해 상하 간격이 증가하면서 반사율은 증가하였으나 Optical Fill Factor와 명암비를 고려할 경우, 중간 수준의 간격인 2.1 ${\mu}m$ 의 특성이 가장 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 동일한 구조를 갖고 있는 0.7 인치 LCOS 패널을 제작하여 광학적 측정을 해 본 결과 시뮬레이션 결과와 통일함을 확인할 수 있었다.

Ocean surface waves may be modified by ocean current and their observation may be severely distorted if the observer is on a moving platform with changing speed. Tidal current near a sill varies inversely with the water depth, and results spatially inhomogeneous modulation on the surface waves near the sill. For waves propagating upstream, they will encounter stronger current before reaching the sill, and therefore, they will shorten their wavelength with frequency unchanged, increase its amplitude, and it may break if the wave height is larger than 1/7 of the wavelength. These small scale (${\sim}$ 1 km changes is not suitable for satellite radar observation. Spatial distribution of wave-height spectra S(x, y) can not be acquired from wave gauges that are designed for collecting 2-D wave spectra at fixed locations, nor from satellite radar image which is more suitable for observing long swells. Optical images collected from cameras on-board a ship, over high-ground, or onboard an unmanned auto-piloting vehicle (UAV) may have pixel size that is small enough to resolve decimeter-scale short gravity waves. If diffuse sky light is the only source of lighting and it is uniform in camera-viewing directions, then the image intensity is proportional to the surface reflectance R(x, y) of diffuse light, and R is directly related to the surface slope. The slope spectrum and wave-height spectra S(x, y) may then be derived from R(x, y). The results are compared with the in situ measurement of wave spectra over Keelung Sill from a research vessel. The application of this method is for analysis and interpretation of satellite images on studies of current and wave interaction that often require fine scale information of wave-height spectra S(x, y) that changes dynamically with time and space.

'신고'와 '황금배'의 과실 특성간 관계를 파악하고 착과량 조절에 의한 과실의 특성 변화를 알아보고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. '신고'는 평균 과중이 672.0g이었으며 601-750g의 과실이 33.8%로 가장 많았으며 '황금배'는 평균 과중 477.5g이었고 401-600g의 과실이 72.5% 생산되었다. '신고'는 300g 이하부터 1kg 이상까지 넓고 고르게 분포하였으며, '황금배'는 생산되는 과중 분포가 좁았다. '신고'의 당도와 당산비는 과중, 종경 및 횡경과 정의 상관을 나타내었으나, '황금배'는 과중과 횡경에서만 당도와 낮은 상관을 나타내었다. 각 품종의 과중별 품질은 '신고'의 경우 451g 이하의 과실은 당도가 낮고 400g 이하의 과실은 경도가 낮았으며, '황금배'는 과중에 따른 품질 차이를 보이지 않았다. '신고'의 과실 크기는 과육의 크기에 영향을 받았으며 과중이 클수록 과육 부위가 차지하는 비중이 높았다. '신고'에서 약하게 적과하면 과실의 과중, 당도와 당산비가 낮았고 경도가 높았으며, '황금배'는 적과가 약한 경우 과중과 당도가 낮았다. '신고'는 모든 적과 수준에서 처리에서 과중이 클수록 당도가 높았으며 특히 '적과 약'에서는 450g 이하의 과실 또한 당도가 낮아 품질이 불량하였고, '황금배'는 모든 적과수준에서 과중에 따른 품질차이는 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 '신고'는 적과수준에 따라 과중이 작은 과실의 생산이 가능하지만 품질 감소가 불가피하여 중소과 생산은 어려울 것으로 판단되었으나, '황금배'는 품질의 하락없이 적과 수준 조절을 통한 중소과 생산이 가능할 것으로 기대되었다.
