In this study a conceptual soil water model is proposed to simulate water balance at catchment scale. The model is based on the sequential separation of daily precipitation into surface runoff, wetting, vaporization, and percolation. The proposed model is calibrated by using three observation sets: empirically estimated annual vaporization, monthly wetting estimated by NRCS-CN method, and both of them. The model performance is evaluated to understand which hydrologic components for calibrating the model are needed. It is shown that both of annual vaporization and monthly wetting are indispensable hydrologic components to simulate reasonably precipitation partitioning.

대구지역은 최근 30년간(1974년${\sim}$2003년)의 연평균 강수량이 1,065.3mm로 전국 평균의 1,305mm보다 상당히 적으며 특히 연강수량의 약 68%가 6월${\sim}$9월중에 집중되고 있다. 수자원 현황이 다른 지역에 비하여 열악하지만 용수수요량은 지속적으로 증가하고 있어 지표수의 이용만으로 용수수요를 만족하기에는 부족한 실정이며 지하수의 적절한 개발이 불가피한 실정이다. 용수수요의 충족을 위해서는 물공급 시스템의 중요한 요소로 평가되는 지하수의 체계적인 관리와 효율적인 운영이 필요하며 이를 위해서 대상지역에 대한 지하수함양량의 파악이 우선적으로 이루어져야 한다. 지하수함양량은 강수양상, 토양특성과 토지이용상태 등에 크게 영향을 받음으로 이에 의한 영향을 고려할 수 있는 NRCS-CN방법을 이용하여 1996${\sim}$2005년간의 최근 10년간의 지하수함양량을 산정하였다. 지하수함양량 산정결과 연평균 1,183.8mm의 강우량에 대하여 연평균 지하수함양량이 291.8mm, 연평균 함양률이 24.7%로 나타났다. 계절별 연평균 함양량과 함양률을 산정한 결과 여름철에는 평균 679mm의 강우량이 발생하였으며 동기간의 평균 지하수함양량이 186mm, 평균 함양률이 27%로 나타났다. 겨울철에는 평균 56mm의 강우량이 발생하였으며 평균 지하수함양량은 6mm, 평균 지하수함양률이 10%로 나타났다. 따라서 강수에 의한 지하수함양량은 유역특성 뿐만 아니라 강수특성에도 많은 영향을 받고 계절적 요인도 작용한다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, we investigate MSAP-TMFT in TICN systems that will be future NCW-based tactical networks. Although MSAP-TMFT implements the WiBro technology, we propose to design a NRC(NAT Relay Cell) that functions as a relay station and at the same time as a base station in combat environments. NRCs support extension of communication distance, increased data rate, efficient radio resource management, and survavibility of combat networks. From simulation results, we show that NRCs improve the efficacy of radio resource management and system throughput compared to the legacy systems.

In this study, three different unit hydrograph methods (NRCS, Snyder and Clark) in the HEC-HMS were compared to find better fit with the observed data in the Namgang-Dam watershed. The Sancheong, Shinan, and Changchon in Namgang-Dam watershed were selected as the study watersheds. The input data for HEC-HMS were calculated land use, digital elevation map, stream, and watershed map provided by WAter Management Information System (WAMIS). Sixty six storms from 2004 to 2011 were selected for model calibration and validation. Three unit hydrograph methods were compared with the observed data in terms of simulated runoff volume, and peak runoff for the selected storms. The results showed that the coefficient of determination ($R^2$) for the peak runoff was 0.8295~0.9999 and root mean square error (RMSE) was 0.029~0.086 mm/day for calibration stages. In the model validation, $R^2$ for the peak runoff was 0.9061~0.9916 and RMSE was 0.030~0.088 mm/day which were more accurate than calibrated data. Analysis of variance showed that there was no significant difference among the three unit hydrograph methods.

KOMPSAT-5 is the first satellite in Korea equipped with X-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) instrument and has been operated since August 2013. KOMPSAT-5 is used to monitor the global environment according to its observation purpose and the availability of KOMPSAT-5 is also highlighted as the need of high resolution wind data for investigating the coastal region. However, the previous study for the validation of wind derived from KOMPSAT-5 showed that the accuracy is lower than that of other SAR satellites. Therefore, in this study, we developed the correction equation of normalized radar cross section (NRCS or backscattering coefficient) for improvement of wind from the KOMPSAT-5 and validated the effect of the equation using the in-situ measurement of ocean buoys. Theoretical estimated NRCS and observed NRCS from KOMPSAT-5 showed linear relationship with incidence angle. Before applying the correction equation, the accuracy of the estimated wind speed showed the relatively high root-mean-square errors (RMSE) of 2.89 m s^-1 and bias of -0.55 m s^-1. Such high errors were significantly reduced to the RMSE of 1.60 m s^-1 and bias of -0.38 m s^-1 after applying the correction equation. The improvement effect of the correction equation showed dependency relying on the range of incidence angle.

Organic acids, nucleotides and their related compounds (NRCs) of kimchi prepared with salted-fermented fish products (SFFPs) and their alternatives were analyzed at each optimal fermentation (pH $4.2{\pm}0.2$, acidity $0.6{\sim}0.8%$) during fermentation at 20, 10 and $4^{\circ}C$, respectively. The pH and acidity levels of kimchi sharply decreased and increased, respectively until each optimal fermentation period. The levels of organic acids and NRCs in SFFP kimchi were affected by fermentation temperature and the type of additive. Compared with the control, organic acid levels were slightly higher in kimchi with alternative additives, as were NRC rates in kimchi with hydrolysates of oyster and Alaska pollack. Moreover, slightly higher levels of NRC were observed in kimchi with alternative additives than in kimchi with SFFPs. Consequently, these results show that fermentation temperature and the type of additive (SFFPs and their alternatives) affect not only fermentation, but the levels of organic acids and NRCs in kimchi.

The ultimate goal of classification systems is to provide tools for information management and services through collocation of information objects in similar topics. The National Research Council for Economics, Humanities, and Social Sciences(NRCS) aims to organize the research products from 23 research institutes. To manage and organize the research products effectively, the standard classification system has been developed in conjunction of users' survey and the Business Reference Model(BRM). Although the standard classification system consists of users' perspectives and the aspects of organizational functions, there are limits to apply the system into classification practices. In this study, the proposed hybrid approach is to combine a clustering approach with 1,884 keywords from the titles of research products between 2007 and 2008. The clustering approach is performed in a heuristic way according to the KDC due to the lack of digital full texts of research products. The results of this study proposed a revised standard classification system for NRCS with 16 headings and 90 sub-headings. The revised standard classification system will play an important role in managing research products effectively.

Rational method has been widely used to calculate peak runoff drainage design or small watershed because of simplicity and convenience. Runoff coefficient(C) is the most important parameter in the rational method which varies according to rainfall intensity, return period, rainfall duration time and soil characteristics. In practice, constant which is value of C in rational formula has been used from the table, originally based on ASCE. These table value does not consider the upper conditions of the depending factors, hence peak runoff calculation could be in correct. Therefore to calculate C in this paper we have devised an improved formula, considering relationship with rainfall duration, return period and CN of NRCS method. This formula is considered to be more reliable and helpful to the hydrologists and engineers to predict correct peak runoff.

This study is to delineate the watershed hydrological parameters such as area, slope, rain gauge weight, NRCS-CN and time of concentration (Tc) by using the Geographic Information Sytem (GIS) technique, and estimation of design flood for an ungauged watershed. Especially, we attempted to determine the Tc of ungauged watershed and develop simple program using the cell-based algorithm to calculates upstream or downstream flow time along a flow path for each cell. For a $19km^2$ watershed of tributary of Nakdong river (Seupmoon), the parameters including flow direction, flow accumulation, watershed boundary, stream network and Tc map were extracted from 30m Agreeburn DEM (Digital Elevation Model) and landcover map. And NRCS-CN was extracted from 30m landcover map and soil map. Design rainfall estimation for two rainfall gauge which are Sunsan and Jangcheon using FARD2006 that developed by National Institute for Disaster Prevention (NIDP). Using the parameters as input data of HEC-l model, the design flood was estimated by applying Clark unit hydrograph method. The results showed that the design flood of 50 year frequency of this study was $8m^3/sec$ less than that of the previous fundamental plan in 1994. The value difference came from the different application of watershed parameter, different rainfall distribution (Huff quartile vs. Mononobe) and critical durations. We could infer that the GIS-based parameter preparation is more reasonable than the previous hand-made extraction of watershed parameters.

This study is on the purpose of leading Geomorphoclimatic Instantaneous Unit Hydrograph(GcIUH) by using GIS Techniques, and estimating trigger rainfall for predicting flash flood in Seolmacheon catchment, mountain river watershed. This study leads GcIUH by using GIS techniques, calculates NRCS-CN values for effective rainfall rate, and analyzes 2011 main rainfall events using estimated GcIUH. According to the results, the case of Memorial bridge does not exceed the amount of threshold runoff, however, the case of Sabang bridge shows that simulated peak flow, approximately $149.4m^3/s$, exceeds the threshold runoff. To estimate trigger rainfall, this study determines the depth of 50 year-frequency designed flood amount as a threshold water depth, and estimates trigger rainfall of flash flood in consideration of duration. Hereafter, this study will analyze various flood events, estimate the appropriateness of trigger rainfall as well as threshold runoff through this analysis, and develop prototype of Flash Flood Prediction System which is considered the characteristics of mountain river watershed on the basis of this estimation.
