We collected information on seasonal and interannual variability of surface chlorophyll a concentration between 1997-2007 from the Northwest Pacific Ocean. Satellite data were used to acquire chlorophyll a and sea surface temperature from six regions: East Sea/Ulleung Basin, East China Sea, Philippin Sea, Warm Pool region, Warm Pool North region, and Warm Pool East region. Mixed layer depth (MLD) was calculated from temperature profiles of ARGO floats data in four of the six regions during 2002-2007. In the East Sea/Ulleung Basin, seasonal variability of chlorophyll a concentration was attributed to seasonal change of MLD, while there was no significant relationship between chlorophyll a concentration and MLD in the Warm Pool region. Interannual anomaly in sea surface temperature were similar among the East Sea, East China Sea, Philippin Sea, and Warm Pool North region. The anomaly pattern was reversed in the Warm Pool East region. However, the anomaly pattern in the Warm Pool region was intermediate of the two patterns. In relation to chlorophyll a, there was a reversed interannual anomaly pattern between Warm Pool North and Warm Pool East, while the anomaly pattern in the Warm Pool region was similar to that of Warm Pool North except for the El $Ni\tilde{n}o$ years (1997/1998, 2002/2003, 2006/2007). However, there was no distinct relationship among other seas. Interestingly, in the Warm Pool and Warm Pool East regions, sea surface temperature showed a pronounced inverse pattern with chlorophyll a. This indicates a strong interrelationship among sea surface temperature-MLD-chlorophyll a in the regions. In the Warm Pool and Warm Pool East, zonal distribution of chlorophyll a concentration within the past 10 years has shown a good relationship with sea surface temperature which reflects ENSO variability.

We investigated seasonal variations of the upper ocean temperature and the mixed layer depth (MLD) in an eddy-permitting global ocean general circulation model (OGCM) to assess the OGCM perfermance. The OGCM is based on the GFDL MOM3 which has a horizontal resolution of 0.5 degree and 30 vertical levels. The OGCM was integrated for 68 years using a monthly-mean climatological wind stress forcing. The model sea surface temperature (SST) and sea surface salinity were restored to the Levitus climatology with a time scale of 30 days. Annual-mean model SST shows a cold bias $(<\;-2^{\circ}C)$ in the summer hemisphere and a warm bias $(>\;1^{\circ}C)$ in the winter hemisphere mainly due to the restoring boundary condition of temperature. The model MLD captures well the observed features in most areas, with a slightly deep bias. However, in the Ross Sea and Weddell Sea, the model shows significantly deeper MLD than the climatology-mainly due to weak salinity stratifications in the model. For amplitude of seasonal variation, the model SST is smaller $(1{\sim}3^{\circ}C)$ than the observation largely due to the restoring surface boundary condition while the model MLD has larger seasonal variation $({\sim}50m)$. It is suggested that for more realistic simulation of the upper ocean structure in the present eddy-permitting ocean model, more refinements in the surface boundary condition for the thermohaline forcing and parameterization for vertical mixing are required, together with the incorporation of a sea-ice model.

동해 영덕 연안의 저염수를 보기 위하여 지난 2010년 격월별(2월 23일, 4월 6일, 6월 8일, 8월 19일, 10월 6일, 12월 20일)로 20개의 정점에서 CTD 관측을 수행하였다. 혼합층은 여름에 약 10 m 깊이로 얕았으며, 겨울에 약 20 m 깊이에서부터 저층까지 혼합층을 나타내었다. 연중 $5^{\circ}C$ 이하의 찬 물이 수온 약층 이심을 점하고 있었다. 염분 약층은 8월에는 깊이 20 m에, 10월에는 깊이 40 m에 분포하였으며 연중 가장 뚜렷하였다. 뚜렷한 저염수는 10월에 깊이 10 m에서 나타났는데, 10월에 강수량-증발량의 값이 음을 보였다, 이것은 10월에 영덕 연안에서 나타나는 저염수가 이류되어 온 것임을 시사하였다. 동해의 영덕 연안에서 나타나는 저염수는 동한 난류가 주요한 역할을 하는 것으로 보여진다.

We investigated the longitudinal variations in zooplankton abundances and their related physicochemical properties at nine stations located between $136^{\circ}W$ and $128^{\circ}W$ at $10.5^{\circ}N$ in the northeastern Pacific in summer 2004. Temperature, salinity, inorganic nutrients, chlorophyll-a (hereafter chl-a) and zooplankton ($>200\;{\mu}m$) were sampled within the depth from the surface to 200 m depth at $1^{\circ}$ longitude intervals. Zooplankton($>200\;{\mu}m$) samples were vertically collected at two depth intervals from surface to 200 m, consisting of surface mixed and lower layers (thermocline$\sim$200 m). Longitudinal distributional pattern of hydrological parameters (especially salinity) was physically influenced by the intensity of westward geostrophic current passage relating to the NEC (North Equatorial Current). Data from the longitudinal survey showed clear zonal distributions in the hydrological parameters(temperature, salinity and nutrients). However, spatial patterns of the chl-a concentrations and zooplankton abundances were mostly independent of the zonal distributions of hydrological parameters. The two peaks of zooplankton abundance in the surface mixed layer were characterized by different controlling factors such as bottom-up control from nutrients to zooplankton ($129^{\circ}W$) and accumulation by increment of friction force and taxonomic interrelationship ($133^{\circ}$ and $134^{\circ}W$). Divergence-related upwelling caused introduction of nutrients into surface waters leading to the increment of chl-a concentration and zooplankton abundances ($129^{\circ}W$). Increased friction force in relation to reduced flow rates of geostrophic currents caused accumulation of zooplankton drifting from eastern stations of study area($133^{\circ}$ and $134^{\circ}W$). Besides, high correlation between immature copepods and carnivorous groups such as chaetognaths and cyclopoids also possibly contributed to the enhanced total abundance of zooplankton in the surface mixed layer (p<0.05). Zooplankton community was divided into three groups (A, B, C) which consecutively included the eastern peak of zooplankton($129^{\circ}W$), the western peak($133^{\circ}$ and $134^{\circ}W$) and high nutrient but low chl-a concentration and zooplankton abundance ($136^{\circ}W$). Moreover, Group B corresponded to the westward movement of low saline waters(<33.6 psu) from 128 to $132^{\circ}W$. In summary, longitudinal distributions of zooplankton community was characterized by three different controlling factors: bottom-up control ($129^{\circ}W$), accumulation by increased friction force and relationships among zooplankton groups ($133^{\circ}$ and $134^{\circ}W$), and mismatch between hydrological parameters and zooplankton in the high nutrient low chlorophyll area ($136^{\circ}W$) during the study period.

Zirconium diboride (ZrB2) and mixed diboride of (Zr0.7Ta0.3)B2 containing 30 vol.% silicon carbide (SiC) composites were prepared by hot-pressing at $1800^{\circ}C$. XRD analysis identified the high crystalline metal diboride-SiC composites at $1800^{\circ}C$. The TaB2 addition to ZrB2-SiC showed a slight peak shift to a higher angle of 2-theta of ZrB2, which confirmed the presence of a homogeneous solid solution. Elastic modulus, hardness and fracture toughness were slightly increased by addition of TaB2. A volatility diagram was calculated to understand the oxidation behavior. Oxidation behavior was investigated at $1500^{\circ}C$ under ambient and low oxygen partial pressure (pO2~10-8 Pa). In an ambient environment, the TaB2 addition to the ZrB2-SiC improved the oxidation resistance over entire range of evaluated temperatures by formation of a less porous oxide layer beneath the surface SiO2. Exposure of metal boride-SiC at low pO2 resulted in active oxidation of SiC due to the high vapor pressure of SiO (g), and, as a result, it produced a porous surface layer. The depth variations of the oxidized layer were measured by SEM. In the ZrB2-SiC composite, the thickness of the reaction layer linearly increased as a function of time and showed active oxidation kinetics. The TaB2 addition to the ZrB2-SiC composite showed improved oxidation resistance with slight deviation from the linearity in depth variation.

현재 도로포장 설계법에 따르면, 동상방지층의 두께는 지역별 온도조건에 따라 결정되는 동결깊이에 의해 결정되며 동상방지층의 지지력은 설계에서 고려되지 않고 있다. 동상방지층을 도로포장체에서 구조층으로 고려할 경우에는 기존 도로포장층의 두께를 감소시킬 수 있으며 보다 경제적인 도로 포장단면을 구성할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 동상방지층의 지지력을 평가하기 위한 통계적 모형을 개발하였다. 동상방지층의 구조적 역할을 규명하고 동상방지층 구조적 평가 모형 개발을 위하여 2m 이하 저성토부, 절토부 및 절성경계부 등을 구분하여 포장 하부층에서 Falling Weight Deflectormeter(FWD) 시험을 계절별로 수행하였다. 본 시험은 동방방지층의 유무에 따른 지지력 차이를 규명하기 위하여 동방방지층이 있는 구간과 없는 구간으로 구분하여 수행하였다. 본 시험결과, 동상방지층이 설치된 구간에서의 FWD 처짐량이 동상방지층 미설치 구간에 비해 0.4~82.6% 작게 측정되어 동상방지층이 포장체에서 지지력을 검증하였다. 다양한 FWD 처짐지수와 동상방지층 두께와의 상관관계를 조사한 결과, 보조기층 파손지수의 차이값(${\Delta}BDI$)과 동상방지층 두께와의 상관도가 가장 높았다. 본 논문에서는 ${\Delta}BDI$값을 선형혼합효과 모형에 적용하여 동상방지층을 구조적으로 평가할 수 있는 모형을 개발하였다.

1992년 5월 21과 22일에 동해 중부해역 3개 정점의 100 m 상부층에서 ²¹⁰Po, ²¹⁰Pb, ²³⁴Th의 농조를 연직적으로 측정하고, 이들 천연방사성핵 종의 분포가 소용돌이의 형성 및 수괴분포에 따라 어떻게 달라지는지를 알아보았다. 그 결과, 소용돌이의 남쪽에 위치한 정점 A1에서는 강한 수온약층이 50~100 m 사이의 층에 존재하고 있고, 속초 연안에 위치한 정점 B10에서는 10~50 m 사이의 층에 존재 하고 있다. 특히, 이 정점의 50~220 m 사이의 층에는 수온이 10.1$\pm$0.5$^{\circ}C$범위인 비교 적 균질한 해수가 존재하고 있으며, 이 수괴는 다른 2개 정점의 동일수심에 비해 수온 이 현저히 높고 영양염류의 농도가 매우 낮다. 이는 영양염류가 고갈된 따뜻한 표층수 가 침강하기 때문일 것이다. ²¹⁰Pb과 ²¹⁰Po의 농도는 3개 정점중 정점 A1 에서 가장 높고, 정점 B1에서 가장 납다. 또한, ²¹⁰Pb과 상반된 분포 양상을 보 인다. 그리고, 소용돌이가 형성되지 않은 2개 정점의 경우 표층 또는 강한 수온약층 상부에서는 어미핵종인 ²¹⁰Pb 보다 ²¹⁰Po 이 부족하지만, 그 하부층에서 는 ²¹⁰Po 의 과잉량을 보인다. 그러나, 소용돌이 중심에 가까운 정점에서는 50 m 하부층에서도 ²¹⁰Po 의 과잉량을 보이지 않고 거의 방사평형된 값이다. ²²⁴Th 의 농도는 정점 A1과 B10의 경우 대체적으로 강한 수온약층 상부층이 그 하부 층보다 낮다.. 그러나, 소용돌이의 중심부에 가까운정점 A1에서는 30 m 상부층의 ²³⁴Th 농도가 그 하부층 보다 오히려 높은데, 이는 입자 물질의 영향 때문인 것 같 다. Box-model 계산 결과, 정점 A1과 정점 B10의 표연혼합층에서 ²¹⁰Po의 체류 시간은 약 1년정도이고, 소용돌이의 중심에 가까운 정점 A1에서는 0.4년이다. 3개 정 점에서 100 m 상부층의 ²³⁴Th 체류 시간은 18~30일 범위이다. 또한, 표면혼합 층으로부터 제거된 ²¹⁰Po 이 수온약층내에서의 재순환율은 정점 A에서 39%이고, 정점 B1에서 92%이다. 이처럼, 정점 B1에서 ²¹⁰Po의 대순환율이 상대적으로 큰 것은 수온약층에서 ²¹⁰Po 의 재순환속도가 느릴 뿐만 아니라 표면혼합층의 두께 가 훨씬 얇기 때문이라고 생각된다.

To investigate behaviors of Ti and O elements and microstructures of anodic titanium oxide films, the films were prepared by anodizing pure titanium in $H_2$S $O_4$, $H_3$P $O_4$, and $H_2O$$_2$ mixed solution at 180V. The microstructures and chemical states of the elements were analyzed using SEM, X-ray mapping, AFM, XRD, XPS (depth profile). The films formed on a titanium substrate showed porous layers which were composed of pore and wall, And with increasing anodizing time a hexagonal shape of cell structures were dominant and solace roughness increased. From the XRD result the structure of the Ti $O_2$ layer was anatase type of crystal on the whole. In the XPS spectra it was found that Ti and O were chemically binded in forms of Ti $O_2$, TiOH, $Ti_2$ $O_3$ at Ti 2p, and Ti $O_2$, $Ti_2$ $O_3$, $P_2$ $O_{5}$, S $O_4^{2-}$ at O ls respectively. Concentration of Ti $O_2$ decreased as the depth increased from the surface of the oxide film towards the substrate, but to the contrary concentrations of TiOH and $Ti_2$ $O_3$ increased.d.

CdS synthesized by the chemical bath method at $70^{\circ}C$, has been used as an electron transport layer in the planar structure of the perovskite solar cells. A two-step spin process produced a mixed halide perovskite of $CH_3NH_3PbI_{3-x}Cl_x$ and a mixture of $PbCl_2$ and $PbI_2$ was deposited on CdS, followed by a sub-sequential reaction with MAI ($CH_3NH_3I$). The added $PbCl_2$ to $PbI_2$ in the first spin-step affected the structure, orientation, and shape of lead halides, which varied depending on the content of Cl. A small amount of Cl enhanced the surface morphology and the preferred orientation of $PbI_2$, which led to large and uniform grains of perovskite thin films. In contrast, the high content of Cl produces a new phase PbICl in addition to $PbI_2$, which leads to the small and highly uniform grains of perovskites. An improved surface coverage of perovskite films with the large and uniform grains maximized the performance of perovskite solar cells at 0.1 molar ratio of $PbCl_2$ to $PbI_2$. The depth profiling of elements in both lead halide films and mixed halide perovskite films were measured by Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, revealing the distribution of chlorine along with the thickness, and providing the basis for the mechanism for enhanced preferred orientation of lead halide and the microstructure of perovskites.

Annual variations of inorganic nutrients such as nitrate(+nitrite), phosphate and silicate in association with thermocline were investigated in the upper 200 m of the water column at KODES Long-term Monitoring (KOMO) station in the northeast equatorial Pacific from 1995 to 2002. Global climatic disturbances such as El Nino and La Nina, should have affected KODES area during the study period. In 1995-97 and 2000-2002, a thermocline where temperatures rapidly decrease with depth, was formed at 50-70 m water depth. Nutrient depletion, specially for nitrate and phosphate, was extended down to approximately 50 m depth, which coincided with the surface mixed layer depth. In 1998 and 1999, however a very fluctuating thermocline was observed at 20-100 m water depth. In the photic zone (up to 100 m depth), depth integration of nitrate, phosphate and silicate ranged from 2.02 to $23.14\;gN/m^2$, from 0.87 to $4.05\;gP/m^2$ and from 35.67 to $176.21\;gSi/m^2$, respectively. As a result of changes in the water column structures, nutrient concentrations also showed fluctuation parallel to the changes of thermocline in the study area.
