Rapidly Solidified (RS) Al-Zr base splats with various alloy contents were prepared by atomization-splat quenching method to understand the continuous and discontinuous precipitation in the aged alloys. And the RS alloys were consolidated by hot extrusion and swaging to analyze the effect of plastic deformation on the precipitation behavior. Discontinuous precipitation dominated at relatively low temperature in the Al-Zr alloy, whereas both V additions to Al-Zr alloys and hot metal working appeared to suppress the discontinuous precipitation. As continuous precipitation is favored in the grain interiors, the driving force for discontinuous precipitation become to disappear with a further process.

The traditional methods of simulating daily precipitation have paid little attention to the inherent dependence structure between the total precipitation amount and the precipitation frequency for a fixed period of time. To address this issue, we propose a new simulation algorithm using copula in order to incorporate the dependence into the traditional methods. The algorithm consists of two parts: First, while reflecting the observed dependence, we generate the total precipitation amount (S) and the frequency (N) during the period of interest; then we simulate the daily precipitation whose aggregation matches the pair of (N; S) generated in the first part. Our result shows that the proposed method substantially improves the traditional methods.

A precipitation change scenario in Korea due to atmospheric $ doubling has been provided with a mixed method (Rebinson and Finkelstein, 1991) based on the simulated precipitation data by three GCM(CCC, UI, and GFDL GCM) experiments. Through the analysis the precipitation change by atmospheric $ doubing can be summarized as follows : Korea may have more precipitation as much as 25mm/yr during spring season and more less 50 mm/yr during summer and autumn, respectively. In the contrary Korea may have less rainfall as much as 13 mm/yr during winter. In terms of percentage with respect to current climatological value of precipitation Korea may have more rain as much as 10%, 13% and 24%, respectively, for spring, summer and autumn than current climate. However, Korea may have less precipitation during winter than current climatological average.

Gallium oxide ($Ga_2O_3$) powders were synthesized using a precipitation method and a polymerized complex method. TG-DSC, SEM, and XRD were performed to investigate the phase and morphology of the $Ga_2O_3$. In situ high-temperature XRD analysis revealed the crystal structure of $Ga_2O_3$ at different temperatures. The $Ga_2O_3$ obtained using the precipitation method and polymerized complex method were generally spherical-shaped particles and their average particle size was approximately 80 nm and $1{\mu}m$, respectively. The crystal structure of the $Ga_2O_3$ prepared by the precipitation method was changed from rhombohedral to monoclinic at $700^{\circ}C$, while monoclinic $Ga_2O_3$ was obtained directly from the precursor by the polymerized complex method.

Fractional precipitation is a simple method for purifying (+)-dihydromyricetin extracted from biomass. However, the fractional precipitation process has been inherently problematic due to the lengthy precipitation time that is required. The fractional precipitation time was shortened and (+)-dihydromyricetin yield was improved by increasing the surface area per working volume (S/V) of the reacting solution through the addition of a cation exchange resin (Amberlite 200, Amberlite IR 120Na, Amberlite IR 120H, or Amberlite IRC 50). Most of the (+)-dihydromyricetin (>90%) could be obtained after about 16 h of fractional precipitation using Amberlite 200. Since high-purity (+)-dihydromyricetin can be obtained at a high yield and the precipitation time can be reduced by increasing the surface area available for precipitation, this improved method is expected to minimize solvent usage and the size and complexity of the high performance liquid chromatography operation required for (+)-dihydromyricetin purification.

This study was to make powder by coprecipitation method and spray dispersion precipitation method in $(1-x)ZrO_2-xMgO$ system to improve sinterability. As the result the specific surface area of powder prepared by spray dispersion precipitation method and coprecipitation method was above $110m^2/g$ and $10-20m^2/g$ respectively. Spray dispersion precipitation method was more effective than coprecipitation method in powder preparation.

The objective of this study is to develop a short-term precipitation-streamflow coupling method for real-time river flow forecast. The coupled method is based on the RDAPS model for precipitation and atmospheric simulation and the SFM model for streamflow simulation. The selected study area is the 2,703-km$^2$ Soyang River basin with outlet at Soyang dam site. The rainfall-runoff event from 18 to 24 July 2003 is selected for the performance test of predicted precipitation and streamflow. It can be seen that the simulated basin-scale precipitation from the RDAPS can be useable as an input for SFM hydrologic model. Short-term hydrometeorological simulations using the RDAPS and SFM model were well captured important hydrometeorological characteristics in this study area. It is concluded that atmospheric precipitation forecast would be useful for streamflow forecast.

In this study, single and multiple linear regression model were used to derive the relationship between precipitation and altitude, latitude and longitude in Jejudo. The single linear regression analysis was focused on whether orographic effect was existed in Jejudo by annual average precipitation, and the multiple linear regression analysis on whether orographic effect was applied to each duration and return period of quantile from regional frequency analysis by index flood method. As results of the regression analysis, it shows the relationship between altitude and precipitation strongly form a linear relationship as the length of duration and return period increase. The multiple linear regression precipitation estimates(which used altitude, latitude, and longitude information) were found to be more reasonable than estimates obtained using altitude only or altitude-latitude and altitude-longitude. Especially, as results of spatial distribution analysis by kriging method using GIS, it also provides realistic estimates for precipitation that the precipitation was occurred the southeast region as real climate of Jejudo. However, the accuracy of regression model was decrease which derived a short duration of precipitation or estimated high region precipitation even had long duration. Consequently the other factor caused orographic effect would be needed to estimate precipitation to improve accuracy.

A precipitation change in Korea due to atmospheric $CO_2$ doubling has been estimated with a mixed method(Robinson and Finkelstein, 1991) to represent regional precipitation distribution from the simulated precipitation data by three GCM(general circulation model) (CCC, UI, and GFDL GCM) experiments. As a result of this analysis, the precipitation change by atmospheric $CO_2$ doubling can be summarized as follows: The precipitation increases as much as 25mm/yr during spring season and more than 50mm/yr during summer and autumn. However, it decreases as much as 13mm/yr during winter. In terms of percentage with respect to current precipitation climatology, we may have more rain as much as 10%, 13% and 24%, respectively, for spring, summer and autumn than current precipitation. However, we may have less winter precipitation than current climatological average.

Precipitation samples were collected by the wet-only event sampling method at Seoul from September 1991 to April 1995. Concentrations of samples for the ion components($NO_3^-, NO_2^-, SO_4^{2-}, Cl^-, F^-, Na^+, K^+, Ca^{2+}, Mg^{2+}$ and $NH_4^+$) were measured in addition to pH and electric conductivity. During the sampling period, 182 samples were collected, but only 163 samples were identified as valid. The pH, calculated from the volume-weighted $H^+$ concentration, was found to be 4.7, indicating a relatively intensive acidity compared with data from other regions of the world, where acid deposition was known to be a problem. Above all, the concentration of non-seasalt sulfate was $84 \mu eq/L$, which was the highest compared to that measured in other regions of the world. The major acidifying ions in the precipitation at Seoul were identified as sulfate and nitrate except for chloride, because the Cl/Na ratio in the precipitation was close to the ratio in seawater. If all of the non-seasalt sulfate and nitrate existed in the form of sulfuric and nitric acids, respectively, the average pH in the precipitation was calculated as 3.7, lower than the measured value. Consequently, the difference between the calculated and measured pH suggest that the acidity of precipitation was neutralized by alkaline species, not due to the low contribution of an anthropogenic air pollutants to the precipitation. The equivalent concentration ratio of sulfate to nitrate was 3.5, which indicated that the contributions of sulfuric and nitric acids to the precipitation acidity were 78% and 22%, respectively.
