In this paper we review current research on Atmospheric Brown Clouds (ABCs) with lightweight Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and miniaturized instruments. The UAV technology for in-situ measurements, including aerosol concentration, aerosol size distribution, aerosol absorption, cloud drop size distribution, solar radiation fluxes (visible and broadband), and spectral radiative fluxes, is a leading-edge technology for cost-effective atmospheric sounding, which can fill the gap between the ground measurement and satellite observation. The first experimental observation with UAVs in Korea, Cheju ABC Plume Monsoon Experiment (CAPMEX), conducted during summer 2008 revealed that the Beijing plumes exerted a strong positive influence on the net warming and fossil-fuel-dominated black-carbon plumes were approximately 100% more efficient warming agents than biomass-burning-dominated plumes. Long-term sustainable routine UAV measurements will eventually provide truly three-dimensional data of ABCs, which is necessary for the better understanding of their climate impacts and for the improvement of numerical models for air pollution, weather forecast and climate change.

In these days, environmental concerns have been increased throughout the industry and community worldwide. To prevent the ozone depletion, ozone depletion potential of a refrigerant must be zero. Simultaneously, a refrigerant with low GWP (global warming potential) is very demanding to induce green house effect. Chlorine-free HFC-l34a is a refrigerant widely used for automotive air-conditioning system because its destruction potential is ecologically zero. Although HFC-l34a has no ozone depletion potential, its global warming potential is so high that it is not considered as a perfect alternative refrigerant that is acceptable for long-term use. In this paper, experimental measurement has been carried out to analyze the performance characteristics of automotive air-conditioning system using HFC-152a, which has low GWP and zero ODP. Also mixed refrigerant that is composed of HFC-152a and $CF_3$ was applied to investigate an alternative possibility for the automotive airconditioning system. As a result of this study, we could draw following conclusions; With respect to the variation of the rotational speed of compressor, outside air temperature and flow rate, the heat amount of evaporator and compressor and performance coefficient was varied.

Objective: The objectives of this study were to analyze efficacy of immature and mature mouse oocytes after vitrification and warming by applying various combinations of cryoprotectants (CPAs) and/or super-rapid cooling using slush nitrogen ($SN_2$). Methods: Four-week old ICR female mice were superovulated for GV- and MII-stage oocytes. Experimental groups were divided into two groups. Ethylene glycol (EG) only group: pre-equilibrated with 1.5 M EG for 2.5 minutes and then equilibrated with 5.5 M EG and 1.0 M sucrose for 20 seconds. EG+dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) group: pre-equilibrated with 1.3 M EG+1.1 M DMSO for 2.5 minutes and equilibrated with 2.7 M EG+2.1 M DMSO+0.5 M sucrose for 20 seconds. The oocytes were loaded onto grids and plunged into $SN_2$or liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$). Stored oocytes were warmed by a five-step method, and then their survival, maturation, cleavage, and developmental rates were observed. Results: The EG only and EG+DMSO groups showed no significant difference in survival of immature oocytes vitrified after warming. However, maturation and cleavage rates after conventional insemination were greater in the EG only group than in the EG+DMSO group. In mature oocytes, survival, cleavage, and blastocyst formation rates after warming showed no significant difference when EG only or EG+DMSO was applied. Furthermore, cleavage and blastocyst formation rates of MII oocytes vitrified using $SN_2$ were increased in both the EG only and EG+DMSO groups. Conclusion: A combination of CPAs in oocyte cryopreservation could be formulated according to the oocyte stage. In addition, $SN_2$ may improve the efficiency of vitrification by reducing cryoinjury.

In Korea, the average air temperature has been elevated twice faster than the average global warming. And the climate warming is characterized by the smaller rise of air temperature in summer and the greater rise of air temperature in spring and winter. Therefore, the number of frost-free days to determine the cultivation ability of crops has increased by more than 15 days in 10 years according to climate warming. This climate warming trend has extended and is projected to extend not only the sweet potato growing season but also the sweet potato early cultivating area to higher altitude and latitude region. This study was carried out to evaluate the possibility of sweet potato double cropping in the southern island area of Korea by assessing the growth and yield performance of sweet potato cultivated at extremely-early and -late time. We had performed at Yokji Island Yokji Island($E128^{\circ}$ 18' $N34^{\circ}$ 36'), a representative specified complex area of sweet potato cultivation in southern Korea. As the test varieties, the major cultivars of the this region, Shinyulmi and early hypertrophic cultivars, Dahomi were used. The prior cropping were planted with PE film mulching on March 30 and April 10, and harvested after 110 days. So the succeeding cropping were planted without PE film mulching on July 25 and August 5 according to the harvesting time of the prior sweet potato and harvested after 120 days. As a control, it was harvested on September 15, 120 days after planted on May 15. Each experimental plot had an area of 12 square meters consisting of 4 beds, and was planted one at a time at intervals of 25cm. We had investigated growth characteristics - main vine length, node number, branch number, total vine yield, and tuberous root characteristics - tuberous root number, average weight, starch value, and etc. After harvesting, we analyzed the economic effects by examining the postharvest quantity, the input labor, the management cost, and the income. The total yield of marketable products in prior and succeeding cropping was 46~70% higher than that of control. The average unit price of sweet potato was 36% higher than the conventional culture, and the gross income increased by 98%, but the operating cost increased by 83%, and the farm income increased by 103%. There are considerations such as the difficulty of enlargement of cultivation area due to lack of labor in limited space and the need for watering measures due to spring drought. However, if the area of application for sweet potatoes double system is increased by 10%, it can be used as a new cropping system.

기후변화는 수목의 생장과 생리적 특성에 영향을 미칠 것으로 예상되고 있다. 본 연구는 인위적 온난화에 의한 소나무 묘목의 생장과 생리적 반응을 알아보기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 이를 위하여 2010년 4월 고려대학교 구내 묘포장에 1년생 소나무 묘목을 식재하고 당해 11월부터 적외선등을 이용하여 $3^{\circ}C$ 온도를 증가시키는 온난화 처리를 하였으며, 2011년부터 3월부터 2013년 3월까지 묘고 및 근원경, 지상부 및 지하부 생물량, 잎의 엽록소함량 및 질소 농도 등을 측정하였다. 묘고와 근원경의 경우 2012년 6월에 측정한 근원경을 제외하고 온난화 처리구와 대조구간 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 2013년 묘목 개체당 잎의 생물량은 온난화 처리구($23.94{\pm}2.10g$)에서 대조구($26.08{\pm}1.72g$)보다 낮게 나타났으며, 줄기와 뿌리의 생물량 비율(S/R율)은 2013년에 온난화 처리구($1.09{\pm}0.07$)에서 대조구($1.31{\pm}0.10$)보다 낮게 나타났다. 한편 잎의 엽록소 함량 및 질소 농도는 2011년 잎의 질소 농도를 제외하고 온난화 처리와 대조구간 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그리고 잎의 C/N율은 2012년에 온난화 처리구에서 대조구보다 높게 나타났다. 온난화 처리에 따른 소나무 묘목의 일부 생장 및 S/R율 감소는 온도 및 수분 스트레스와 관련이 있을 것으로 추정된다. 본 연구결과 향후 온난화가 지속되면 국내 소나무는 온도 및 수분스트레스로 인해 지하부로의 탄소 분배를 확대시킬 가능성이 있는 것으로 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of walk training on leg strength, flexibility, postural stability, balance and gait in home bound elderly women. Eighteen elderly women of the experimental group aged between 70 and 90 years image who have normal vision, hearing and Romberg test. They participated in the 12 week walk training. The subjects of the experimental group practiced walk training 3 times a week for during 12 weeks. During the 40 minute workout, the subjects practiced 5 minutes of warming-up exercises, 30 minutes of conditioning exercises and 10 minutes of a cool-down exercise. The intensity for the conditioning phase was determined by subject' heart rates, which ranged from 60% to 70% of age-adjusted maximum heart rates. The body composition, leg strength, flexibility, postural stability, balance and gait were measured prior to and after the experimental treatment. The body fat, lean body mass, leg strength (ankle dorsiflexor, plantarflexor, inversor and eversir, knee flexor, extensior), flexibility (range of motion of ankle dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, inversion and eversion), and postural stability of the experimental group were significantly greater than those of the control group. Duration of standing on the right foot and that of standing on the left foot of the experimental group was greater than that of the control group. Total balance scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group. Among 13 items for balance, the scores of experimental group in balance with eyes closes, turning balance, sternal nudge, neck turning, one leg standing balance and back extension were higher than those of the control group. Total scores of gait of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group following the walking training. Scores of experimental group in step height, step length and walk stance while walking among 9 items for gait were significantly higher than those of the control group. The results suggest that walk training can improve physical fitness for prevention in home bound elderly women.

소나무 묘목을 대상으로 한반도 기후변화 시나리오에 근거한 50년 후 온도 $3^{\circ}C$ 증가와 강수량 30% 변화의 영향을 모의하고자 실외에서 온난화 처리와 강수 조절을 수행할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하였다. 이를 위하여 2013년 4월에 묘포장을 조성하고 2년생 소나무 묘목을 식재한 다음 5월부터 적외선등을 이용하여 온난화 처리구(W)의 대기온도를 대조구(C)에 비하여 $3.0^{\circ}C$ 높게 설정하여 가열하였으며, 강수 대조구($P^0$)와 강수 차단 덮개를 이용한 강수 감소(대조구 대비 -30%; $P^-$) 조절, 그리고 펌프와 점적관수를 통한 강수 증가(대조구 대비 +30%; $P^+$) 조절을 실행하였다. 온난화 처리구의 대기 온도는 초기에 대조구에 비하여 평균 $2.2^{\circ}C$ 높았으나 이후 점차 목표치에 근접한 $3.0^{\circ}C$로 유지되었다. 또한 온난화 처리에 따른 평균 토양 온도는 온난화 처리구에서 대조구보다 평균 $3.1^{\circ}C$ 높게 나타났다. 강수 증가 및 감소 조절에 따른 평균 토양 수분 함량은 온난화 처리구에서 $P^0W$에 비하여 $P^+W$는 13.9% 증가하고, $P^-W$는 10.0% 감소하였으며, 온난화 대조구 중에서 $P^+C$는 23.7% 증가하고, $P^-C$는 7.6% 감소하였다. 환경요인의 모니터링을 통하여 실외 실험적 온난화와 강수 조절 시스템이 적정하게 설계되고 가동됨을 확인할 수 있었다.
