High- and multi-frequency acoustic systems can measure a zooplankton patch successively and estimate the spatial distribution and abundance of zooplankton according to size using a multi-frequency inversion (MFI) method. This study measured zooplankton distribution to a depth of 150m using a multi-frequency acoustic system (TAPS-6), installed on a CTD system with a fluorometer and analyzed it using the MFI method. Simultaneously, zooplankton samples were collected by north pacific standard (NORPAC) net to confirm the species composition. The results showed that the combined method is valuable for estimating the zooplankton profile in detail and investigating the relationship between the zooplankton and phytoplankton profiles.

To investigate low frequency acoustic transmissions in the Sub-Polar Front(SPF) of the East Sea, numerical experiments are conducted with Range dependent Acoustic Model(RAM) using Circulation Research of the East Asian Marginal Seas(CREAMS) data and Autonomous Profiling Explorer(APEX)) data. Significant seasonal variations of sea water properties are existed across the Sub-Polar Front(SPF) region from the north and the south. The model results show that Transmission Loss(TL) decrease(about 20dB) with ideal front in the warm region whereas TL increase(about 25dB) with ideal front in the cold region. Regardless of season(both in summer and winter), when the sound source is located in the cold region of the SPF, the model results show weak TL, compared to the case of the source in the warm region(Maximum difference of TL reaches 28dB). This difference between the cases when the source is located in the cold region and the warm region, is accounted for from the different vertical profiles of sound speed in both regions.

Experimental study is conducted to investigate the heat/mass transfer and flow characteristics for the flow over backward-facing step and cavities. A naphthalene sublimation method has been employed to measure the mass transfer coefficients on the duct wall and LDV system has been used to obtain mean velocity profiles and turbulence intensities. Reynolds number based on the step height and free stream velocity is 20,000 and St numbers of acoustic excitations given to separated flow are 0.2 to 0.4. The spectra of streamwise velocity fluctuation show a sharp peak forcing frequency for an acoustically excited flow. The results reveal that the vortex pairing and overall turbulence level are enhanced by the acoustic excitation and a significant decrease in the reattachment length and the increased turbulence intensity are observed with the excitation. A certain acoustic excitation increases considerably the heat/mass transfer coefficient at the reattachment point and in the recirculation region. For the cavities, heat/mass transfer is enhanced by the acoustic excitation due to the elevated turbulence intensity. For the 10H cavity, the flow pattern is significantly changed with the acoustic excitation. However, for the 5H cavity, the acoustic excitation has little effect on the flow pattern in the cavity.

We studied the bottom morphology and sedimentary environments of the Masan Bay using high-resolution Chirp seismic profiles and sediments data. According to deep-drilled core samples (up to 20 m thick) penetrated into the weathered rock basement, the sediments consist largely of three sediment types: the lower sandy gravel facies (Unit I) of 1-4 m in thickness, the middle sandy mud and/or muddy sand facies(Unit II) of 1-2 m thick and the upper mudfacies (Unit III) of over 10 m in thickness. The sedimentary column above the acoustic basement can be divided into two major sequences by a relatively strong mid-reflector, which show the lower sedimentary sequenc e(T) with parallel to subparallel internal reflectors and the upper sedimentary sequence(H) with free acoustic patterns. Acoustic basement, the lower sedimentary sequence (T), and the upper sequence (H) are well correlated with poorly sorted massive sandy gravels (Unit I), the sand/mud-mixed sediment (Unit II), and the muddy facies(Unit III), respectively. The acoustic facies and sediment data suggest that the Masan bay is one of the most typical semi-enclosed coastal embayments developed during the Holocene sea-level changes. The area of the Masan Bay reduced from about $19\;km^2$ in 1964 to about $13\;km^2$ in 2005 by reclamation, and its bottom morphology changed as a result of dredging of about $2{\times}10^7\;m^3$.

For a high speed train driving at 300 km/h, aero-acoustic noise is a dominant component among various noise sources. The aeroacoustic noise is mainly due to inter-coach spacings because discontinuities in the train surface significantly disturb turbulent flows. This often leads to the uncomfortableness of passengers. Interestingly, the aero-acoustic noise reduces with decreasing the mud-flap spacing of the inter-couch spacing. We perform numerical simulations to investigate flow characteristics around the inter-coach spacing. We model the inter-coach spacing as a simple 2-D cavity with flaps, and calculate the velocity and pressure field using two equation turbulence models, varying the flap spacing. The results show that a wider flap spacing develops a higher inflection point in mean velocity profiles over the cavity. It is likely that large eddies generated near the inflection point persist longer in the downstream since they are less affected by the wall. This probably induces the more aero-acoustic noises. The wider spacing also results in the larger pressure difference between the inside and outside of the cavity. This is also responsible for the increased noise since the large difference would cause a strong flow oscillations in and out of the cavity.

The 3.5 KHz seismic survey was carried out for studying the distribution pattern of the unconsolidated sediments of the Yeosu Sound on the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula. Field data originally recorded in analog are converted and processed digitally to recover the high-resolution acoustic profiles. Across the north-south trending channel with the depth of 20~30 m, different seismic facies types are observed in the top section of sediments. The western part is characterized by the continuous high-amplitude subparallel reflectors within which the acoustic turbidity as a token of the presence of gas is commonly observed, whereas the counterpart largely shows poor reflectors and has shallow acoustic basement toward the north. The dissimilarity of the seismic expression across the channel can be interpreted as the result of the change of depositional environment caused by relative sea-level fluctuations of the late-Quaternary. During the last glacial period, the Yeosu Sound was exposed and eroded by the paleo-Seomjin River. By the following rapid rise of sea level, it was covered by the transgressive sand sheet. When the sea level reached near the present position, the muddy sediment has accumulated only in the western part of the Yeosu Sound as its depositional front has moved toward the north. It is partly caused by the asymmetrical tidal current in the Yeosu Sound where the flood near the bottom has stronger current flow and contains more suspended sediments.

황해 중동부 해역에서 2012년 9월에 동서방향으로 설정된 단면과 금강 하구 외측 저염수 지역의 정박지점에서 음향탐지기를 이용하여 음향 후방산란 구조(acoustic backscatter profile)를 측정하였으며 CTD로 물성구조도 관측하였다. 수심 50 m 부근 해역에 발달한 해저사주 주변에서 조석전선이 형성되었다. 이 사주의 동쪽에서 저조 때 음향탐지기로 관측된 내부파는 파고가 약 15 m, 평균파장이 500 m정도이며, 파형이 비선형 오목형 파(depression wave)였다. 이 내부파는 남동쪽으로 흐르는 조류가 사주를 지나면서 만든 조석내부파로 해석되었다. 약한 비선형성 단독 내부파 이론을 적용하였을 때 오목형 내부파들의 전파속도는 약 50 cm/s 정도이고, 주기는 16~18분 정도로 계산되었다. 강한 음향 산란층이 국지적으로 7 m 정도 상승된 지역의 해면에서 Dinoflagelates Cochlodinium에 의한 적조가 관찰되었다. 금강하구 외측 정박지점에서 한 시간간격으로 관측한 물성구조는 해륙풍과 조류에 따른 염분약층 깊이 변동을 보여 주었다. 창조류가 북동쪽으로 강하게 흐르고 육풍이 서쪽으로 7 m/s 이상 불었을 때에는 염분약층이 일시적으로 상승하였고, 음향구조 영상은 해면 하 약 5 m까지 복잡한 구조를 보였는데 포획과 관입 형태를 갖는 강하고 약한 산란신호의 기울어진 음향구조가 수 십초 간격으로 교대로 나타났다. 표면 혼합층에서의 이러한 음향구조는 황해 중동부 연안역에서는 처음으로 관측되었다. 음향 후방산란 영상과 탁도 자료는 창조류와 육풍에 의한 표층 취송류가 만드는 수직적인 유속차(shear)에 의해 맑은 하층수가 탁한 상층으로 관입 혹은 포획된 것임을 제시한다.

황해 군산분지의 지하 지질구조를 파악하기 위하여 인공위성 해면고도계 중력자료를 이용하여 파워 스펙트럼 분석(power spectrum analysis) 방법으로 밀도 불연속면의 평균 깊이를 계산하였다. 계산 결과에 의하면 군산분지를 포함한 본 연구지역에서는 각각 -1.1km, -3.4km, -9.1km 그리고 -31.0km의 평균 깊이를 가지는 밀도 불연속면이 검출되었다. -1.1km 평균 깊이의 밀도 불연속면은 본 연구지역의의 탄성파 단면에서 관찰되는 왕복 주시 1초 부근에서 나타나는 광역 부정합면으로 해석되었고, -3.4km 평균 깊이의 밀도 불연속면 또한 탄성파 단면에서 인지되는 음향기반암 상부면과 일치하는 것으로 해석되었다. -9.1km 평균 깊이의 밀도 불연속면은 본 연구지역의 시추공 자료, 탄성파 단면, 광역 지질 등을 고려하여 화성기원 기반암의 상부면으로 해석하였다. 이는 본 연구지역의 음향 기반암층은 기존의 연구에서 고려 대상이 되지 않았던 퇴적암으로 이루어져 있음을 의미한다. -31.0km의 평균 깊이를 가지는 밀도 불연속면은 일반적인 대륙지각의 평균 두께와 유사한 값을 보이므로 모호면으로 해석하였다. 화성기원 기반암 상부면으로 해석된 -9.1km 평균 깊이의 밀도 불연속면의 검출은 군산분지의 석유 가스 부존 가능성에 관한 연구에 있어 기존의 연구보다 심부층(음향 기반암층)에 대한 연구가 필요함을 시사하였다.

The 3.5kHz sub-bottom profiling was carried out over both Gwangyang Bay and the Yeo Sound . High -resolution digital images of uppermost sediment layers are obtained from the field data which were originally recorded in analog mode. Most prominent feature along the acoustic profiles is the chaotic reflections which imply the presence of shallow gas within the silty sediments. In the western part of Gwangyang Bay, the gas-charged sediments are assoicated with the acoustic turbidity of the blanket type. Across the Seomjin Delta in the eastern part of Gwangyang Bay, the gas-charged seismic facies are observed just beneath the sea bottom. In the western Yeoul Sound , the gassy seiments occur widely , whereas it is rare in the eastern counterpart with the <30-m-deep channel. We postulate that this gas was biogenetically produced within the organic-rich deposits.

Micro-structures fabricated by X-ray lithography are largely affected by doses, development conditions and other factors. For these reasons, PMMA development rates and its surface profiles under various development conditions were obseued. Development rates were measured in the rage from 1 to 6 $kJ/cm^3$ using the 9C1 white beamline of Pohang light source(PLS). In this experiment, we observed that development rates of stacked PMMA sheet using Si filter were relatively higher than that of not using Si filter. Furthermore, development rates in condition with the acoustic agitation(1 MHz, 3.67 $W/cm^3$) were twice than that in dipping condition with $35^{\circ}C$ developer considering the PMMA sheets-substrate bond strength
