Rainfall data is one of the most important data in hydrologic modeling. In this study, the impacts of spatial resolution of precipitation data on hydrological responses were assessed using SWAT in the Santa Fe River Basin, Florida. High correlations were found between the FAWN and NLDAS rainfall data, which are observed weather data and simulated weather data based on observed data, respectively. FAWN-based scenarios had higher maximum rainfall and more rainfall days and events compared to NLDAS-based scenarios. Downstream areas showed lower correlations between rainfall and peak discharge than upstream areas due to the characteristics of study site. All scenarios did not show significant differences in base flow, and showed less than 5% of differences in high flows among NLDAS-based scenarios. The impact of resolution will appear differently depending on the characteristics of the watershed and topography and the applied model, and thus, is a process that must be considered in advance in runoff simulation research. The study suggests that applying the research method to watersheds in Korea may yield more pronounced results, and highlights the importance of considering data resolution in hydrologic modeling.

Although spontaneous resolution of chronic subdural hematoma (C-SDH) in the elderly has rarely been reported, spontaneous resolution of bilateral C-SDH is very rare. Here, we report the case of a 73-year-old female patient with no significant head trauma history who had a bilateral C-SDH spontaneously resolve despite receiving only conservative treatment. However, because of a lack of detailed knowledge about the mechanisms of resolution, treatment is often limited to surgical interventions that are generally successful, but invasive and prone to recurrence. We review the literature and discuss the possible relation of C-SDH's spontaneous resolution with its clinical and radiological characteristics.

This study examines the dispute resolution culture and negotiation strategy in Vietnam. We adopt area studies methodology in order to analyze dispute resolution and negotiation strategy in Vietnam, since the dispute resolution and negotiation strategy are keenly connected with the culture, law, institution, and economic system of the society. Our findings are as follows. First, Vietnamese society has the culture that has the characteristics of maternal society and patrilineal society. Vietnamese women has traditionally participated in the economic activity. Second, Vietnamese people showed loyalty to the nation. Third, Vietnamese society is shown to belong to the culture of collectivism. In addition, we investigate the multi-faced characteristics of Vietnamese dispute resolution culture and negotiation strategy. Our findings are as follows. First, Vietnamese people utilize middlemen in implementing dispute resolution and negotiation. Second, Vietnamese people prefer long-term negotiation style. Third, Vietnamese people is accustomed to face-saving culture. Fourth, Vietnamese people prefer the indirect communication style. Fifth, Vietnamese people prefer written document instead of oral agreement in contract. Sixth, Vietnamese people and firms prefer ADR to formal law.

Drought events are not clear when those start and end compared with other natural disasters. Because drought events have different timing and severity of damage depending on the region, various studies are being conducted using satellite images to identify regional drought occurrence differences. In this study, we investigated the applicability of drought assessment using the Evaporative Stress Index (ESI) based on Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) satellite images. The ESI is an indicator of agricultural drought that describes anomalies in actual and reference evapotranspiration (ET) ratios that are retrieved using remotely sensed inputs of Land Surface Temperature (LST) and Leaf Area Index (LAI). However, these approaches have a limited spatial resolution when mapping detailed vegetation stress caused by drought, and drought hazard in the actual crop cultivation areas due to the small crop cultivation in South Korea. For these reasons, the development of a drought index that provides detailed higher resolution ESI, a 500 m resolution image is essential to improve the country's drought monitoring capabilities. The newly calculated ESI was verified through the existing 5 km resolution ESI and historical records for drought impacts. This study evaluates the performance of the recently developed 500 m resolution ESI for severe and extreme drought events that occurred in South Korea in 2001, 2009, 2014, and 2017. As a result, the two ES Is showed high correlation and tendency using Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis. In addition, it will provide the necessary information on the spatial resolution to evaluate regional drought hazard assessment and and the small-scale cultivation area across South Korea.

The numerical simulation optimized by Four Dimensional Data Assimilation (FDDA) with Quick Scatterometer (QuikSCAT) data is carried out to evaluate wind resource characteristics at various heights in the southeastern area of the Korean Peninsula, where wind farms are planned to be built on on- and off-shore as well as comparable diurnal wind variations are characterized at the surface. The temporal and spatial distributions of modeled wind speeds showed good agreement with the observations based on the temporal variation analysis. Model results indicate that the higher model is performed in resolution, the more precise results is at turbine hub height. Occasionally, wind speed variations for each numerical resolution has a different regional and seasonal variations. In the coast area, hub height wind speed of 9km-resolution is simillar to that of 3km-resolution. On the other hand, hub height wind speed of 3km-resolution is simillar to that of 1km-resolution in the Jiri mountainous area.

Image merging techniques have been developed to integrate the advantage of different data type. The objective of this study is to present the optimal method for merging high spatial resolution panchromatic image, such as the latest commercial satellite data, and low spatial resolution mulitspectral images. For this study, a set of 2m resolution panchromatic and 8m resolution mulitspectral data were simulated by using airborne mulitspectral data. Five merging methods of MWD, IHS, PCA, HPF, and CN were applied to produce four bands of high spatial resolution mulitspectral data. Merging results were evaluated by visual interpretation, image statistics, semivariogram, and spectral characteristics. From the aspects of both spatial resolution and spectral information, the wavelet-based MWD merging method have shown very similar results compared with the original data used for the merging.

The numerical dispersive characteristics and the numerical stability confition of the Multi-Resolution Time-Domain(MRTD) method are calculated. A dispersion analysis of the MRTD schemes including a comparison to Yee's Finite-Difference Time-Domain(FDTD) method is given. The superiority of the MRTD method to the spatial discretization is shown. The required computational memory can be reduced by using the MRTD method. We expect that the MRTD method will be very useful method for numerical modelling of electromagnetics.

In this paper, the dispersive characteristics of the Finite-Difference Frqequency-Domain method based on the Multi-Resolution Technique(MR-FDFD) are numerically analyzed. A dispersion analysis of the MR-FDFD ority of the MR-FDFD method to the spatial discretization is shown. We expect that the multi-resoluation technique will improve the disavantage of the finite difference techqnique which needs the large comutational memory for accurate electromagnetic analysis.

This paper reports the preliminary results on the study of radargrammetry especially for a high-resolution satellite synthetic aperture radar system. Theoretical configurations for radargrammetry in terms of coverage, orbit selection, incidence angles, height sensitivity of parallax and height resolution of DEM were calculated according to the proposed orbit characteristics and the imaging modes of KOMPSAT-5 SAR. Possible imaging strategies and mission scenarios for coverage versus rapidity are suggested for a future mission dedicated to radargrammetry.

The feature points in the uncalibrated stereo vision should represent all the characteristics of an image in multiple resolution, have high precision, and have the robustness against mismatching. This paper proposed an algorithm which detects the corner points in multi-resolution for stereo computer vision. The algorithm has sub-pixel precision, rejects the mismatched points, and corrects the lens distortion. We show the performance of the algorithm by estimating the homography with it.
