The degradation of coastal ecosystems and fishery environments is accelerating due to the recent phenomenon of invertebrate grazers. To effectively monitor and implement preventive measures for this phenomenon, the adoption of remote sensing-based monitoring technology for extensive maritime areas is imperative. In this study, we compared and analyzed the robustness of deep learning-based object detection modelsfor detecting and monitoring invertebrate grazersfrom underwater videos. We constructed an image dataset targeting seven representative species of invertebrate grazers in the coastal waters of South Korea and trained deep learning-based object detection models, You Only Look Once (YOLO)v7 and YOLOv8, using this dataset. We evaluated the detection performance and speed of a total of six YOLO models (YOLOv7, YOLOv7x, YOLOv8s, YOLOv8m, YOLOv8l, YOLOv8x) and conducted robustness evaluations considering various image distortions that may occur during underwater filming. The evaluation results showed that the YOLOv8 models demonstrated higher detection speed (approximately 71 to 141 FPS [frame per second]) compared to the number of parameters. In terms of detection performance, the YOLOv8 models (mean average precision [mAP] 0.848 to 0.882) exhibited better performance than the YOLOv7 models (mAP 0.847 to 0.850). Regarding model robustness, it was observed that the YOLOv7 models were more robust to shape distortions, while the YOLOv8 models were relatively more robust to color distortions. Therefore, considering that shape distortions occur less frequently in underwater video recordings while color distortions are more frequent in coastal areas, it can be concluded that utilizing YOLOv8 models is a valid choice for invertebrate grazer detection and monitoring in coastal waters.

우리는 1997년부터 현재까지 보현산천문대 1.8 미터 망원경과 이 망원경에 부착한 1K CCD, 2K CCD와 4K CCD를 이용하여 가까운 북반구 구상성단에 대하여 (U)BVI CCD 측광 관측을 수행해오고 있다. 2K CCD를 통한 관측 자료를 통해서 우리는 북반구 구상성단 M3, M13, M15, M53과 M92의 정밀한 색-등급도를 도출할 수 있었다. 이 색-등급도를 통해서 M3, M13, M15와 M92의 경우는 밝은 계열 별(특히 점근거성가지별)의 특성 및 종족비(R과 R2)와 적색거성가지별의 광도함수를 유도하였고, M53과 M92의 경우는 상대나이를 유도함으로써 구상성단의 제 2 계수 문제를 규명하고자 하였다. 우리는 추가로 북반구 구상성단 M5, M10과 M71의 정밀한 색-등급도를 도출하여 밝은 계열 별의 특성을 규명하고 적색거성가 지별의 광도함수를 유도함으로써 종족 II 항성의 진화 문제를 연구하고자 한다. 현재 운영 중인 4K CCD를 통해서 구상성단 M2, M3, M5, M13, M15, M53, M71과 M92를 관측하고 있으며 2K CCD 경우보다 어두운 주계열성까지의 측광 자료 도출에 주목적이 있다($V{\approx}23$ 등급까지). 도출한 측광 자료를 2K CCD 측광 자료와 결합하여 북반구 구상성단 구성별의 고유운동 자료를 도출하고자 하며 이의 활용 방안에 대하여 논의하고자 한다. 더불어 그 동안 보현산천문대에서의 관측 여건에 대해서도 논의하고자 한다.

This research focuses on the development and application of a method for the detection of m-toluate in soils using a genetically engineered bioluminescent bacteria, Pseudomonas putida mt-2 KG1206. KG1206 produces light by direct (m-toluate and benzoate) and indirect (toluene analogs) inducers. For detection of m-toluate in soil system, 9.9 mL strain was amended with 0.1 mL soil ethanol extractant. A high correlation ($r^2>0.97$) was observed between bioluminescence and m-toluate concentration. The unknown concentrations of m-toluate in soil samples were pre-determined using a method developed based on bioluminescence activity of strain with extracted inducers. Values between by LC analysis and bioluminescence activity show moderate statistical results. These results demonstrate the feasibility of recombinant bioluminescent microorganism, engineered to generate a quantifiable bioluminescence signal in response to specific pollutants, may serve as combined sensing and reporting tools in environmental monitoring.

The objective of present study was to simultaneously isolate of isoflavone and soyasaponin compounds from the germ of soybean seeds. Soy germ flours were defatted with hexane for 48h at room temperature, and methanolic extracts were prepared using reflux apparatus at $90^{\circ}C$ for 6h, two times. After extraction, extracts were separated with preparative RP-$C_{18}$ packing column ($125{\AA}$, $55-105{\mu}m$, $40{\times}150mm$), and collected 52 fractions were identified with TLC plate (Kieselgel 60 F-254) and HPLC, respectively. Among the identified isoflavone and soyasaponin fractions, isoflavone fractions were re-separated using a recycling HPLC with gel permeation column (Jaigel-W252, $20{\times}500mm$). Final fractions were air-dried, and the purified compounds of two isoflavones (ISF-1-1, ISF-1-2) and four soyasaponins (SAP-1, SAP-2, SAP-3, SAP-4) were obtained. Two isoflavone compounds (ISF-1-1, ISF-1-2) were acid-hydrolyzed for the identification of their aglycones, and confirmed by comparing with 12 types of isoflavone isomers. While the four kinds of soyasaponins were identified by using a micro Q-TOF mass spectrometer in the ESI positive mode with capillary voltage of 4.5kV, and dry temperature of $200^{\circ}C$. Base on the obtained results, it was conclude that ISF-1-1 is the mixture isomers of daidzin (43.4%), glycitin (47.0%), and genistin (9.6%), but ISF-1-2 is the single compound of genistin (99.8% <). On the other hand, soyasaponin SAP-1 is the mixture compounds of soyasaponin A-group (Aa, Ab, Ac, Ae, Af); SAP-2 is soyasaponin B-group (Ba, Bb, Bc) and E-group (Bd, Be); SAP-3 is soyasaponin B-group (Ba, Bb, Bc), E-group (Bd, Be), and DDMP-group (${\beta}g$); SAP-4 is soyasaponin B-group (Ba, Bb, Bc), E-group (Bd, Be), and DDMP-group (${\beta}g$, ${\beta}a$), respectively.

The monotonic characteristics of AUSM-type shemes are proven by mathmatics and numerics. Qualitatively well-known characteristics are quantified by mathematics and the magnitude of oscillatory behaviors of each schemes could be compared directly. Moreover, it is also studied how the sonic transition position affects the oscillation in capturing the shocks. Lastly M-AUSMPW+, the latest improved AUSM-type scheme, is shown to have monotonic characeristics though all shock conditions.

This paper analyzes a sequential estimator with flexible structure for rapid acquisition of the m-sequence signals. If the received PN chips stored in the estimator's internal registers as initial loading values include one error, this chip with error can be corrected through multiple local PN code generators to achieve high-speed acquisition performance. Hamming distance between regenerated local PN codes from the proposed system and received PN code is compared with given threshold to choose a possible correct path and to declare success of the code acquisition. Using signal flow graph, average acquisition time that depends on detection and false alarm probability is calculated. By modifying generally used matched filter structure for PN code acquisition, the proposed system provides flexible structure and rapid acquisition process.

In this study, the anti-pigmentation efficacy of Panax vietnamensis (P. vietnamensis), a ginseng native to Vietnam, was confirmed. Melanin synthesis was repressed by ethanolic extracts of P. vietnamensis in B16F10 cells, melanocytes originated from mouse. At 250 ㎍/mL ethanolic extracts of P. vietnamensis, melanin contents were repressed by 64.04% compared to the control group. In addition, ethanolic extracts of P. vietnamensis downregulated tyrosinase activity and expression to 53.34% and 59.39%, respectively. As shown our result, ethanolic extracts of P. vietnamensis blocks α-MSH-mediated melanogenesis and is valuable whitening ingredients in cosmetics.

A point frequency analysis is carried out for the Indogyo site at the Han river using 68 annual maximun flood data for the period of 1918-1992. Computed frequency discharges using the three parameter log-normal, type-I extreme value, type-III extreme value, and Pearson type-III computed as 35,500 m3/sec and 39,000 m3/sec, respectively, 33,500 m3/sec and 37,500 m3/sec of corresponding return periods are computed when the flood control effect of the dams are taken into account. The resulting flood discharge of 37,500 m3/sec is similar to the current design flood of 37,000 m3/sec in downstream reach of Han river, so, it could be desirable to keep the the current design flood, considering the increasing tendency of the flood due to the climate change. Keywords : frequency analysis, flood discharge, Han river.
