A GPS based wave height meter system is proposed in this paper. The proposed system uses a dual-frequency measurements, a precise GPS satellite information and a PPP-based navigation algorithm to estimate the position with high accuracy. This method does not need to receive corrections from the reference stations. Therefore, unlike RTK based wave meter, regardless of the distance to the reference stations, it is possible to estimate position with high accuracy. This system is very simple and accurate system, but accelerometer-based system requires the other sensors such as GPS. Because position error is accumulated in the accelerometer system and must be removed periodically for high accuracy. In order to get the measurements and test the proposed wave height meter system, a buoy equipped with the test platform is installed on the sea near by Jukbyeon habor in Uljin, Korea. Then, to evaluate the performance, compares built-in commercial wave height meter with proposed system.

Digital vessels can occur large a disaster at sea because vessels in fire and collision in case of certain unforeseen circumstances. In this paper, We propose digital vessel context monitoring system through risk analysis. We propose environment information analysis system using wireless sensor that have to acquire marine environment and context of marine digital vessel. For conducting simulation, we chose 300 data sets to train the neural network. As a result, we obtained about 96% accuracy for fire risk context and we obtained 88.7% accuracy for body of vessel risk context. To improve the accuracy of the system, we implement a FEC (Forward Error Correction) block. We implemented digital vessel context monitoring system that transmitted to diagnosis result in CDMA.

There is increasing interest, on the global basis, in the operation of ocean surface radars for measurement of coastal sea surface conditions to support environmental, oceanographic, meteorological, climatological, maritime and disaster mitigation operations. In south Korea, ocean surface radars are operating to monitoring oil spill, outflow from dike or preventing from safety-accidents in the 6 regions (16 radial sites) by main frequency about 13, 25 and 42 MHz until the present. However, that ocean surface radars have been operated on an experimental spectrum basis. In the results of 3~50 MHz band domestic analysis to improve the regulatory status of the spectrum used by oceanographic radars, it was demonstrated that sufficient frequency bands are available for oceanographic radars on the frequency band above 20 MHz. It is difficult to deploy and operate oceanographic radars in the sub-bands below 20 MHz except for 13 MHz band. For using HF ocean surface radars one should understand the spectrum environment in Korea and should prepare a suitable operating system and data processing techniques.

In case of constructing final closure in sea having big tide variation, the velocity in gap and the seepage velocity under the revet are faster because of inner and outer water level difference of the revet. Thus, the rubbles for final closure lose and the original ground is scoured by piping. There are several difficulties from the view of construction efficiency and safety. This study finds hydraulic phenomena in final closing construction area, develops a program for final closing simulation, minimizes the error during design and construction, and supports the engineering capacity for efficient and safe construction. The existing design method for final closure only considers the flow in gap, but the developed program considers the seepage in revet and flow in closure gap. This developed program chooses the suitable rock size for final closing design and establishes the proper method for final closing construction.

Traditional and commercial soy sauces used for seasoning soups and cooked mungbean sprouts were evaluated for consumer preference. Table salt was included in sensory tests, because the consumer commonly used it for seasoning soups. Triangle tests with 30 trained panelists were used to evaluate differences between two soy sauces, and 9 point hedonic scale tests with 100 consumer panelists to evaluate the consumer preference. Taste of sea mustard, Chinese radish and dried pollack soups seasoned with the traditional soy sauce, commercial soy sauce for soup and table salt was significantly different. The consumer panel indicated that the commercial soy sauce for soup was most preferred and the traditional soy sauce least preferred. Taste of cooked mungbean sprouts seasoned with two sauces, prepared with either traditional or commercial soy sauces, was significantly different from each other, but the consumer panel could not detect the difference in preference.

The study is to derive a typical probable rainfall intensity formula(TPRIF) by analyzing pre-issued probable rainfall intensity formulas (PPRIF) over principal rainfall observation stations, and to obtain the regional characteristics based on the rainfall patterns by evaluating probable rainfall amount. The conclusions are as follows. A TPRIF which integrates PPRIF with a single pattern is presented. In deriving probable rainfall intensity, the application of TPRIF was more excellent than that of PPRIF. The value of R24/Rl which is the dimensionless ratio for rainfall characteristics tends to be inversely proportionate to the regional coefficient n. By comparing these values, the whole country could be divided into about 5 regions. In these five regions, the short-duration rainfall intensity is dominant in inland areas but the long-duration rainfall intensity is dominant in East Sea areas.

This paper developes the navigation visual aid supporting a watch officer's situation awareness and analyzes its performance test result. Developing the equipment made from composite video sensor which transfer video signal, ranger laser measurement model which search out distance, Pan/ Tilt, center control device. The developed equipment with Pan/Tilt was made from high performance video sensor and ranger laser measurement. To make a real ship test, we carried on setting the developed equipment on ship, observed a danger factor and analyzed a image, and from that we can evaluate marine environment awareness. Through this result, the developed equipment can show effective ability of the awareness of the clearer check and resolution situation when compare with the binocular.

International Maritime Organization(IMO) recommends the installation of an Automatic Identification System(AIS) according to requirements by SOLAS Chapter 5 to avoid maritime collision. AIS provides traffic information of other ships that may be used for maritime traffic control, SAR(Search and Rescue) and collision avoidance to apply safety management. In this paper, preliminary results to implement an aeronautical surveillance transceiver using AIS transceiver based on ADS-B concepts are described. Although altitude information is not required for AIS since the AIS is operated at MSL(Mean Sea Level), altitude information can be extracted by a GPS chip-set in the ALS transceiver. ADS-B transceiver is implemented by defining a surveillance message format including the altitude information and modifying SOTDMA protocol. Ground tests and flight tests are performed to validate the implementation results.

It has been reported that there are two distinct phenotypes in Fraxinus mandshurica Rupr. growing in Korea. Recently developed polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was used to detect DNA sequence polymorphism in the species. Using a thermostable DNA polymerase and synthetic DNA primers, unknown DNA sequences from the species were randomly amplified. The two types of the species produced different DNA amplification pattern with three different primers tested. Although DNA polymorphism was detected among individuals within types, each type has its own distinct pattern. The two types could be easily differentiated by trier characteristic predominant bands.

In this research, it was presented that the strategic approach for the long-term shoreline changes using historic digital aerial images can be effective for the analysis on the bangameori beach, west coast of South Korea. For this purpose, we collected several historic digital aerial images over 9 years in the research filed and conducted GPS-VRS surveying for GCP (Ground Control Point) acquisition. Also we collected existing two dimensional shoreline digital map which was published by KHOA (Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency) in the year 2013. With these multi data sets, we provided quantitative analysis on coastal erosion using the long-term shoreline changes in the beach. Also, As the results it was found that 2m sea level was retreated in the research period with maximum 0.31m length.
