Many large dams have been constructed for water supply, irrigation, flood control and hydropower in Korea for the last century. Meanwhile, recent studies indicated that the artificial reservoirs impounded by these dams are major sources of carbon dioxide (CO₂) to the atmosphere and relevant to global budget of green house gases. However, limited information is available on the seasonal variations of CO₂ evasion from the reservoirs located in the temperate monsoon regions including Korea. The objectives of this study were to estimate daily Net Atmospheric Flux (NAF) of CO₂ in Daecheong Reservoir located in Geum River basin of Korea, and analyze the influencing parameters that characterize the variation of NAF. Daily pH and alkalinity (Alk) data collected in wet year (2012) and dry year (2013) were used for estimating the NAFs in the reservoir. The dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) was computed using the pH and Alk measurements supposing an equilibrium state among the carbonate species. The results showed seasonal variations of NAF; negative NAFs from May to October when the primary production of the reservoir increased with water temperature increase, while positive NAF for the rest of the period. Overall the reservoir acted as sources of CO₂ to the atmosphere. The estimated NAFs were 2,590 and 771 mg CO₂ m^-2d^-1 in 2012 and 2013, respectively, indicating that the NAFs vary a large extent for different hydrological years. Statistical analysis indicated that the NAFs are negatively correlated to pH, water temperature, and Chl-a concentration of the reservoir.

According to cultural characteristics, Jung-Won cultural region are divided 10 sub-regions. These regions must be highlighted cultural image as core symbols and created new and regional culture to differentiate development strategy of cultural resources: (1) Chungju: historical and cultural region(stone pagoda of Tap-Pungri), (2) Zechun: cultural region of the righteous soldiers (captain Yu, In-Suk), (3) Dunyang: cultural region of Gogurue(mountain castle of On-Dal), (4) Chongju: educational and cultural region(Zikzi and Chull Dandgan), (5) Boeun: cultural region of buddhism(Bupzoo temple,) (6) Okchun: cultural region of Silla and Bakje(war of Silla and Bakje), (7) Yongdong: cultural region of three provinces(harmony monument stone of Samdobong), (8) Eunsung: cultural region of scholar spirit(Monument of 6. 25 war), (9) Goessan: cultural legion of cofucianism(confucianist Song, Shi-Reull), (10) Zinchun: cultural region of Sam-Guk unification spirit (general Kim, You-Shin).

A BEM program is developed for the performance analysis of axisymmetric mufflers. In the program the sub-region method is used to deal with singularity or inner boundary. The program is applied to typical axisymmjetric mufflers such as simple expansion, extended tube, perforated tube and absorptive expansion sufflers. The transmission losses of the mufflers are calculated by the program and compared with experiments. It is found that the prediction is in a good agreement with measurement, except for the absorptive muffler with parallel lining.

Dynamic response of organic light-emitting diodes were analyzed in $ITO/Alq_3$(100 nm)/Al device structure with a variation of voltage an frequency. At low frequency region, complex impedance is mostly governed by resistive component, and at high frequency region by capacitive component. Also, we have evaluated resistance, capacitance and permittivity of devices.

In this study, we prepared ITO thin films on the Nb₂O₅/SiO₂ double buffer layer and investigated electrical and optical properties according to the change of SiO₂ buffer layer thickness (40~50nm). The ITO thin film fabricated on the Nb₂O₅/SiO₂ double buffer layer exhibited a broad surface roughness with a small value ranging of 0.815 to 1.181nm, and the sheet resistance was 99.3 to 134.0Ω/sq. It seems that there is no problem in applying the ITO thin film to a capacitive touch screen panel. In particular, the average transmittance in the short-wavelength (400~500nm) region and the chromaticity (b^*) of the ITO thin film deposited on the Nb₂O₅(10nm)/SiO₂(40nm) double buffer layer showed significantly improved results as 83.58% and 0.05, respectively, compared to 74.46% and 4.28 of ITO thin film without double buffer layer. As a result, it was confirmed that optical properties such as transmittance in the short-wavelength region and chromaticity were remarkably improved due to the index matching effect in the ITO thin film with the Nb₂O₅/SiO₂ double buffer layer.

This paper presents a sub-band feature extraction approach in which the feature extraction method in the individual frequency sub-bands is determined in terms of speech recognition accuracy. As in the multi-band paradigm, features are extracted independently in frequency sub-regions of the speech signal. Since the spectral shape is well structured in the low frequency region, the all pole model is effective for feature extraction. But, in the high frequency region, the nonparametric transform, discrete cosine transform is effective for the extraction of cepstrum. Using the sub-band specific feature extraction method, the linguistic information in the individual frequency sub-bands can be extracted effectively for automatic speech recognition. The validity of the proposed method is shown by comparing the results of speech recognition experiments for our method with those obtained using a full-band feature extraction method.

We investigate solar flare occurrence rate and daily flare probability depending on McIntosh sunspot classification, its area, and its area change. For this we use the NOAA active region and GOES solar flare data for 15 years (from January 1996 to December 2010). We consider the most flare-productive 10 sunspot classification: 'Dko', 'Dai', 'Eai', 'Fai', 'Dki', 'Dkc', 'Eki', 'Ekc', 'Fki', and 'Fkc'. Sunspot area and its change can be a proxy of magnetic flux and its emergence/cancellation, respectively. we classify each sunspot group into two sub-groups: 'Large' and 'Small'. In addition, for each group, we classify it into three sub-groups according to sunspot group area change: 'Decrease', 'Steady', and 'Increase'. As a result, in the case of compact groups, their flare occurrence rates and daily flare probabilities noticeably increase with sunspot group area. We also find that the flare occurrence rates and daily flare probabilities for the 'Increase' sub-groups are noticeably higher than those for the other sub-groups. In case of the (M+X)-class flares of 'Dkc' group, the flare occurrence rate of the 'Increase' sub-group is three times higher than that of the 'Steady' sub-group. Mean flare occurrence rates and flare probabilities for all sunspot regions increase with the following order: 'Steady', 'Decrease', and 'Increase'. Our results statistically demonstrate that magnetic flux and its emergence enhance major solar flare occurrence. We are going to forecast solar flares based on these results and NOAA scale.

This paper presents the results of the optical characteristics of ITO thin film with different buffer layer thicknesses of $SiO_2$ and $Nb_2O_5$ for touch sensor application. $SiO_2$ and $Nb_2O_5$ buffer layers were deposited using RF magnetron sputtering equipment. The buffer layers were inserted between glass and ITO layers. In order to compare with the experimental results, the Essential Macleod Program (EMP) was adopted. Based on EMP simulation, the [$Nb_2O_5{\mid}SiO_2{\mid}ITO$] multi-layered thin film exhibited high transmittance of more than 85% in the visible region. The actual experimental results also showed transmittance of more than 85% in the visible region, indicating that the simulated results were well matched with the experimental results. The sheet resistance of ITO based film was about $340{\Omega}/sq$. The surface roughness maintained a relatively small value within the range of 0.1~0.4 nm when using the $Nb_2O_5$ and $SiO_2$ buffer layers.
