To establish the optimum conditions for storing buttercup squash, we examined the effectiveness of several storage methods and the quality of the squash under various storage conditions, including temperature (12 and $20^{\circ}C$) and relative humidity (20, 40, 60, and 80%). The spoiling rate of the squash was affected more by the storage temperature than the relative humidity, and the squash stored at $20^{\circ}C$ started to be deteriorated after 20 days of storage. At $20^{\circ}C$, soluble solid content gradually increased until 20 days of storage, and then it tended to decrease. The L-value had a tendency to increase with days of storage, and the a- and b-value also increased after 40 days. In addition, the color changes were great when the squash was stored at high temperature and high relative humidity. The total pectin content increased until 20 days at $20^{\circ}C$, and then it decreased, but less change was observed in the squash stored at $12^{\circ}C$. Overall, the results showed that storage at $20^{\circ}C$ after field curing resulted in excessive weight loss, color loss and poor eating quality, as well as a high level of decay (approximately 70%) after 40 days. However, the squash stored at $12^{\circ}C$ and 60% RH (relative humidity) showed less degreening and had a reduced level of decay, below 10%.

The performances of the Seoul National University Urban Canopy Model (SNUUCM) under different meteorological conditions (clear, cloudy, and rainy conditions) in summertime are compared using observation dataset obtained at an urban site. The daily-averaged net radiation, sensible heat flux, and storage heat flux are largest in clear days and smallest in rainy days, but the daily-averaged latent heat flux is similar among clear, cloudy, and rainy days. That is, the ratio of latent heat flux to net radiation increases in order of clear, cloudy, and rainy conditions. In general, the performance of the SNUUCM is better in clear days than in cloudy or rainy days. However, the performance in simulating sensible heat flux in clear days is as poor as that in rainy days. For all the meteorological conditions, the performance in simulating latent heat flux is worst among the performances in simulating net radiation, sensible heat flux, and latent heat flux. The normalized mean error for latent heat flux is largest in rainy days in which the relative importance of latent heat flux in the surface energy balance becomes greatest among the three conditions. This study suggests that improvements to the parameterization of processes that are related to latent heat flux are particularly needed.

Effects of temperature, pH, and salt concentration on the preservation of the infective juvenile entolopathogenic nematodes, Steinernema carpocapsae, were analyzed. The effects of acclimation to sublethal low temperature and glycerol concentrations on rapid cold hardening of the nematodes were also evaluated to set up the conditions for their cryopreservation. All tested environmental factors could change the storage effectiveness of the nematodes. These analyses indicated that the optinal storage condition for the nematodes consisted of $15^{\circ}C$, pH 8.5, and 0.5-1.0% salt concentration. The nematodes showed a rapid could hardening in response to $5^{\circ}C$ for 2h. Glycerol induced the nematodes to increase the cold hardiness. Its high concentration over 10%, however, gave a harmful effect on the nematode survival.

This study was performed to investigate airtight storage characteristics of rough rice using airtight flexible pve container. A storage test of rough rice of 4 tonnes was carried out to determine the changes of gas composition of air in the container, grain moisture content, air temperature and relative humidity , the presence of insects ,germination rate, crack ratio , fat acidity , 1000-kernel weight, and brown rice recovery over storage period of 5 months in Suwon. Concentration of oxygen was decreased from 20% to 16% and carbon dioxide was increased of from 0.03% to 1.6%. The grain moisture content was decreased from 14.4%(w.b) to 14.1%(w.b) for 5 months storage period . Insect population levels were low but these increased after 5 months storage. Most of insects were dead, Fat acidity increased from 7.5(mg KOH/100g) to 10.2(mg KOH/100g). Other storage factors such as germination rate, brown rice recovery and 1000-kernel , and 1000-kernel weight slightly decreased and crack ratio was slightly increased. Qualities of rough rice during 5 months storage period under hemetic air conditions were maintained fairly good considering the above changes of quality factors during storage.

Data storage related with writing and retrieving requires high storage capacity, fast transfer rate and less access time. Today any data storage system cannot satisfy these conditions, however holographic data storage system can perform faster data transfer rate because it is a page oriented memory system using volume hologram in writing and retrieving data. System can be constructed without mechanical actuating part therefore fast data transfer rate and high storage capacity about $1Tb/cm^3$ can be realized. In this paper, to reduce errors of binary data stored in holographic data storage system, a new method for bit error reduction is suggested. We proposal Algorithm use The Extended Kalman filter. The Kalman filter reduce measurement noise. Therefore, By using this error reduction method following results are obtained; the effect of measurement nois of Pixel is decreased and the intensity profile of data page becomes uniform therefore the better data storage system can be constructed.

First, find cluster centers using subtractive clustering algorithm then reduce intensities of pixels around cluster centers and fuzzy rules. Therefore, By using this error reduction method following results are obtained ; the effect of Inter Pixel Interference noise is decreased and the intensity profile of data page becomes uniform therefore the better data storage system can be constructed.

An experimental study is performed on reducing the pollutants supplied by storm water through enhancing efficiency of SS from the detention storage tank where CSOs are kept temporarily before discharge to the receiving water system. SS removal efficiency is investigated in accordance with various conditions of the detention pond-such as its length, the existence of training wall, and the use of gravel filling. The removal efficiency is strongly affected by the detention pond's length until the critical falling distance of the suspended solids is reached. For cases where the tank has a length longer than this critical condition, the removal rate shows less sensitivity. To enhance the SS removal efficiency of tanks of shorter than the critical length, we studied alternative types of tank in which inside training walls are installed. The results showed improvement of 14 to 37% in removal efficiency in 2hours detention(2 training walls). The important factor in achieving a high SS removal rate is ensuring the critical length of the detention pond, but for the cases where the basin length cannot be guaranteed, baffles or a gravel filling scheme may be introduced to attain considerable efficiency. The results of studying and comparing different storage tank conditions show that, in terms of elimination efficiency, a storage tank with gravel filling and training walls > a storage tank with gravel filling > a storage tank with training walls > an empty tank. The experimental results should contribute to development of related further research, by empirically verifying the already assumed importance of critical falling distance, training walls, and gravel filling schemes.

The purpose of this study is to predict multiplication patterns of foodborne pathogens according to packaging methods and storage conditions in home-delivered meals. Pan fried oak mushroom and meat, soy sauce glazed hair tail and roasted dodok which inoculated $10^6\;CFU/g$ of foodborne pathogens were packaged by wrap packaging, top sealing, vacuum packaging and stored at 25, 4 and $-18^{\circ}C$ during 5 days. The result of study was revealed that the growth and multiplication pattern of the inoculated foodborne pathogens was inhibited in chilling and freezing storage after vacuum packaging, and was significantly influenced by storage temperature. The survival of Listeria monocytogenes was also significantly influenced by storage period. The effective method to preserve the bacteriologic safety of pan fried oak mushroom and meat and soy sauce glazed hair tail in home-delivered meals was stored for maximum three days in chilling storage after vacuum packaging.

Because of their short harvest season, large quantities of persimmons must often be processed within a limited time. Therefore, new methods to extend their storage life are required. This study examined the effects of chlorine dioxide (ClO₂) gas fumigation for various treatment periods on the storage quality of astringent persimmons Cheongdobansi under low-temperature conditions. The conditions consisted of continuous treatment with ClO₂, treatment for 2 weeks with ClO₂, and no treatment, all of which are stored at low temperatures. Control samples (storage 0 days) without any treatment were prepared and all experiments were conducted for 10 weeks at two-week intervals. The ClO₂ gas treatment maintained the moisture content, color value, hardness, soluble tannin content, and sensory characteristics. However, ClO₂ gas treatment did not affect the soluble solids, pH, and total sugar content. In particular, continuous treatment with ClO₂ maintained the storage quality after 6-8 weeks of storage, particularly the hardness and weakness (sensory evaluation). The results suggest the potential of continuous treatment with ClO₂ as a highly effective method for maintaining the freshness of Cheongdobansi.

The present study describes a one-dimensional modeling of encapsulated ice storage tanks. The thermal transmittance of capsules in this model uses the results from the Arnold's experimental $study^{(2-3)}$.In this model, ice storage tank is partitioned by several control volumes for the analysis, each having same number of capsules. The model is validated by the comparison of the measured data from an ice storage tank installed at a building with the capacity of 1200 ton-hrs and the simulated results with the same inlet brine temperature conditions into the tank.
