The effects of a hypocaloric diet with or without strength training on body fat distribution and serum lipid concentrations in obese elderly women were investigated. Twenty-six healthy women (age 66±4.6 yr; body mass index 32.3±2.9 kg/m²) were randomly assigned to 3 groups: control (C; n=8), hypocaloric diet (DO; n=9) or hypocaloric diet with strength training (DST; n=9). Subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), and inter and intra muscular adipose tissue (IMAT) were measured using magnetic resonance imaging. Serum lipid concentrations including total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC), and triglycerides (TG) were measured. No significant changes occurred in body weight and percent body fat in the C group over the 16-week period. The DO and DST groups lost similar amounts of weight and fat after 16 weeks. SAT and VAT decreased after weight loss in the DO and DST groups but not in the C group. IMAT was significantly reduced in the DO and DST groups, whereas in the C group IMAT increased. The loss in IMAT mass was similar in the DO and DST groups. TC and LDLC decreased in the DO and DST groups but not in the C group. There were no differences between the DO and DST groups in decrease in TC and LDLC. HDLC decreased in the DO group but not in the C and DST groups. TG tended to decrease in the DST group. In conclusion, body fat distribution including SAT, VAT, and IMAT and serum lipid concentratons were modulated by weight loss resulting from the hypocaloric diet with or without strength training in obese elderly women. Strength training did not enhance the improvement in body fat distribution and serum TC and LDLC concentrations by the hypocaloric diet.

This study investigates the impacts of carbon neutrality and air quality control policies on near-term climate change in East Asia, by examining three Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) scenarios from five climate models. Specifically, low carbon and strong air quality control scenario (SSP1-1.9), high carbon and weak air quality control scenario (SSP3-7.0), and high carbon and strong air quality control scenario (SSP3-7.0-lowNTCF) are compared. For these scenarios, the near-term climate (2045-2054 average) changes are evaluated for surface air temperature (SAT), hot temperature extreme intensity (TXx), and hot temperature extreme frequency (TX90p). In all three scenarios, SAT, TXx, and TX90p are projected to increase in East Asia, while carbon neutrality reduces the increasing rate of SAT and hot temperature extremes. Air quality control strengthens the warming rate. These opposed mitigation effects are robustly forced in all model simulations. Nonetheless, the impact of carbon neutrality overcomes the impact of air quality control. These results suggest that fast carbon neutrality, more effective than an air quality control policy, is necessary to slowdown future warming trend in East Asia.

Geomagnetic data from 3-axis magnetometer and the IGRF model (tilite - eccentric dipole model) were used to determine the attitude of a satellite. We compared the values of the geomagnetic model with the magnetometer data and two attitude angles, called $\alpha$ -angle and $\beta$-angle respectively, were calculated. From these angles we calculated simple bounds, $\gamma1$ and $\gamma2$, on the true attitude angle $\gamma$, which is used to detemine attitude, between the z-axis and the local vertical. And then we investigated conditions of attitudes of UoSAT-11, 14, 22.

The increase of the impermeable area due to industrialization and urban development distorts the hydrological circulation system and cause serious stream drying phenomena. In order to manage this, it is necessary to develop a technology for impact assessment of stream drying phenomena, which enables quantitative evaluation and prediction. In this study, the cause of streamflow reduction was assessed for dam and weir watersheds in the five major river basins of South Korea by using distributed hydrological model DrySAT-WFT (Drying Stream Assessment Tool and Water Flow Tracking) and GIS time series data. For the modeling, the 5 influencing factors of stream drying phenomena (soil erosion, forest growth, road-river disconnection, groundwater use, urban development) were selected and prepared as GIS-based time series spatial data from 1976 to 2015. The DrySAT-WFT was calibrated and validated from 2005 to 2015 at 8 multipurpose dam watershed (Chungju, Soyang, Andong, Imha, Hapcheon, Seomjin river, Juam, and Yongdam) and 4 gauging stations (Osucheon, Mihocheon, Maruek, and Chogang) respectively. The calibration results showed that the coefficient of determination (R²) was 0.76 in average (0.66 to 0.84) and the Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency was 0.62 in average (0.52 to 0.72). Based on the 2010s (2006~2015) weather condition for the whole period, the streamflow impact was estimated by applying GIS data for each decade (1980s: 1976~1985, 1990s: 1986~1995, 2000s: 1996~2005, 2010s: 2006~2015). The results showed that the 2010s averaged-wet streamflow (Q95) showed decrease of 4.1~6.3%, the 2010s averaged-normal streamflow (Q185) showed decreased of 6.7~9.1% and the 2010s averaged-drought streamflow (Q355) showed decrease of 8.4~10.4% compared to 1980s streamflows respectively on the whole. During 1975~2015, the increase of groundwater use covered 40.5% contribution and the next was forest growth with 29.0% contribution among the 5 influencing factors.

A total of 26 Korean elite soybean cultivars including 21 certified cultivars was assessed to evaluate genetic diversity and to analyze relationship among them based on 15 SSR markers. Fifteen SSR markers generated a total of 201 alleles. Average number of alleles per SSR marker was 13.4 with a range from 8 to 19. Genetic diversity of 26 cultivars estimated by PIC value ranged from 0.782 to 0.931 with an average of 0.874. PIC value of Satt197 was the highest with 0.931 and Satt141 was the lowest with 0.782 among 15 SSR markers. Cluster analysis based on genetic distances classified 26 soybean cultivars into 3 clusters. Cluster I, II and III included 2, 7 and 17 cultivars, respectively. Average genetic diversity within clusters was 0.769 with a range from 0.720 to 0.799. Average genetic diversity between clusters was 0.813 with a range from 0.725 to 0.857. Genetic diversity was higher between clusters than within clusters. Genetic relationship among clusters was near between I and II, and I and III and far between II and III cluster. All of 26 Korean elite soybean cultivars could be identified by using any of 5 combinations of 2 SSR markers with higher PIC value, i.e, $Satt197+Sat_088$, Satt197+Satt245, $Sat_088+Sat_-036$, $Sat_088+Satt245$ and Satt185+Satt245.

The MIRIS (Multi-purpose InfraRed Imaging System) is a compact IR space Telescope, which has been developed by KASI since 2008 as the main payload of Korean STSAT-3. It was launched successfully by a Dnepr Rocket at Yasny Launch site, Russia in November 2013. After the launch, the STSAT-3 successfully settled down at Sun synchronous orbit with altitude of ~ 600km. Communications were regularly made between the ground station and the MIRIS with other secondary payload. We made a series of tests of the MIRIS during the verification period and found that all functions including the passive cooling are working as expected. The MIRIS has a wide-field of view $3.67{\times}3.67$ degrees and wavelength coverage from 0.9 to 2.0 micro-meter with the angular resolution of 51.6 arcsec. The main science missions of the MIRIS are (1) mapping of the Galactic plane with Paschen-alpha line (1.88 micro-meter) for the study of warm interstellar medium and (2) the measurement of large angular fluctuations of cosmic near infrared background radiation with I (1.05 micro meter) and H (1.6 micro meter) bands to identify their origin. We present the results of MIRIS initial operation in this paper.

To investigate desalinization patterns of surface reclaimed saline-sodic soil (RSSS) with subsurface layer of macroporous medium, multi-layered soil columns were constructed. For the multi-layered soil columns, gypsum was treated at the rate of 5 cmolc $kg^{-1}$ in surface (top) while coal bottom ash (CBA) was placed into intermediate layer below the gypsum-treated surface soils followed by the reclaimed saline-sodic soil as bottom layer (BL). The lengths of top soil was 30 cm long while the lengths of the CBA were 20 and 30 cm long. The saturated hydraulic conductivities (Ksat) were $0.39{\times}10^{-4}$ and $0.31{\times}10^{-4}cm\;sec^{-1}$ for RSSS(30 cm)-CBA(20 cm)-BL(20 cm) and RSSS(30 cm)-CBA(20 cm)-RSSS(20 cm), respectively while the lowest $K_{sat}$. was $0.064{\times}10^{-4}cm\;sec^{-1}$ for RSSS(30 cm)-CBA(20 cm)+BL(20 cm). The time required to reach the lowest EC in eluent, 0.3 dS $m^{-1}$ from 33.9 dS $m^{-1}$ was shorter in multi-layered soil columns with GR-CBA than that of RS-SRS, representing that rate of desalinization was greater than 99%. Exchangeable Na decreased by 94.8~96.2 %, while exchangeable Ca increased by 98~129 %.

Serious problems in reclaimed land for agriculture are high soil salinity and very poor vertical drainage. However, desalinization in these soils is very difficult. To identify the change of soil permeability by the gypsum incorporation in soils we observed elution patterns and salt distribution of the soil using soil columns packed with reclaimed saline soil with various rates of gypsum amendment. Saturated hydraulic conductivity ($K_{sat}$) of the top soil of reclaimed saline soils without gypsum incorporation was close 0 cm $hr^{-1}$ while $K_{sat}$ increased up to 0.3 cm $hr^{-1}$ with increasing amount of gypsum for 0.4% or more gypsum. Also $K_{sat}$ of the reclaimed saline soils for top soil was drastically increased to 1.0 cm $hr^{-1}$ or slightly greater after 141 hour's elution experiment. The cumulative amount of cation recovered in the effluent also increased in the order of gypsum incorporation rate 0.8% > 0.6% > 0.4 > 0.2%. Soil EC in soil columns decreased from initial 33.9 dS $m^{-1}$ to less than 0.4 dS $m^{-1}$ and exchangeable Ca 2+ increased by 32~140% according to gypsum incorporation rate.

At EUROCRYPT 2015, Todo proposed a new technique named division property, and it is a powerful technique to find integral distinguishers. The original division property is also named word-based division property. Later, Todo and Morii once again proposed a new technique named the bit-based division property at FSE 2016 and find more rounds integral distinguisher for SIMON-32. There are two basic approaches currently being adopted in researches under the bit-based division property. One is conventional bit-based division property (CBDP), the other is bit-based division property using three-subset (BDPT). Particularly, BDPT is more powerful than CBDP. In this paper, we use Boolean Satisfiability Problem (SAT)-aided cryptanalysis to search integral distinguishers. We conduct experiments on SIMON-32/-48/-64/-96, SIMON (102)-32/-48/-64, SIMECK-32/-48/-64, LBlock, GIFT and Khudra to prove the efficiency of our method. For SIMON (102)-32/-48/-64, we can determine some bits are odd, while these bits can only be determined as constant in the previous result. For GIFT, more balanced (zero-sum) bits can be found. For LBlock, we can find some other new integral distinguishers. For Khudra, we obtain two 9-round integral distinguishers. For other ciphers, we can find the same integral distinguishers as before.
