Tropical dry forests are one of the most threatened, widely distributed ecosystems in tropics and estimation of forest biomass is a crucial component of global carbon emission estimation. Therefore, the present study was aimed to quantify the biomass and carbon storage in trees on large scale (10, 1 ha plots) in the dry mixed evergreen forest of Javadhu forest of Eastern Ghats. Biomass of adult (≥10 cm DBH) trees was estimated by non-harvest methods. The total biomass of trees in this tropical dry mixed evergreen forest was ranged from 160.02 to 250.8 Mg/ha, with a mean of 202.04±24.64 Mg/ha. Among the 62 tree species enumerated, Memecylon umbellatum accumulated greater biomass and carbon stocks (24.29%) more than the other species in the 10 ha study plots. ANOVA revealed that there existed a significant variation in the total biomass and carbon stock among the three plant types (Evergreen, brevi-deciduous and deciduous (F (2, 17)=15.343, p<0.001). Basal area and density was significant positively correlated with aboveground biomass (R² 0.980; 0.680) while species richness exhibited negative correlation with above ground biomass (R² 0.167). Finding of present study may be interpreted as most of the trees in this forest are yet to be matured and there is a net addition to standing biomass leading to carbon storage.

Satsuma dwarf virus (SDV) seriously damages citrus production by reducing the quality and yield of fruit. To avoid contamination with SDV, mother trees are checked to be SDV-free in advance of nursery tree distribution. In this study, we compared an immunochromatographic assay (ICA) kit with double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (DAS-ELISA) for large-scale diagnosis of SDV in orchardgrown trees in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. The two methods gave conflicting results for 11 of 1,705 samples, all of which were negative by DAS-ELISA but positive by ICA. The samples scored as positive by either DAS-ELISA or ICA were analyzed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and all were confirmed to be positive. These results validate the use of ICA as a screening method for large-scale diagnosis. Strain discrimination revealed that 16 of 22 isolates belonged to SDV, while citrus mosaic virus (CiMV) infection only and co-infection (SDV and CiMV) were in a minority.

Urban green spaces offer a variety of benefits to living things and humans. However, existing green spaces have been reduced and fragmented due to urbanization, and there is a limit to creating new large green spaces in densely developed cities. Street trees have fewer restrictions on land use, which can be a measure to secure green areas in cities. In Korea, excessive pruning is being done on some street trees for reasons such as blocking of building signboards, contact with electric wires, and restrictions on sidewalk widths. Therefore, it is necessary to quantitatively understand the relationship between the benefits provided by street trees and their structures to come up with an efficient and systematic planning and management plan for urban street trees. In this study, we quantitatively analyzed the relationship between the thermal comfort improvement by the shades of street trees and the vertical structure, planting environment, and types of street trees. To calculate the thermal comfort felt by human body, we calculated UTCI (Universal Thermal Climate Index) of each street tree. For the vertical structure of street trees, we used Terrestrial LiDAR and the point clouds of street tree's crown was sliced vertically at 1m intervals. We conducted a multiple regression analysis on the thermal comfort improvement using the variables we obtained from fields. As a result, in the case of a street tree's vertical structure, the lager the volume of tree's crown located 3-4m (β=0.298, p<.05) and 6-7m (β=0.568, p<.001) above clear length, the better the cooling effect. In addition, the thermal comfort improvement was assessed to decrease as the DBH increased (β=-0.435, p<.001). In general, the crown diameter and DBH are positively correlated, with a cooling effect occurring as crown diameter increases. In this study, the opposite result was obtained due to the small number of trees measured, so additional research is needed by increasing the number of tree samples. In the case of the planting environment, the effect of improving thermal comfort was higher in the shaded area of trees planted to the south (β=-0.541, p<.001). Since unsystematic management of street trees can deteriorate the function of them, quantitative evaluations of the vertical structure of street trees are required, which can provide specific measures for planning and management of urban street trees with thermal comfort effect.

다중나무예측치들이 한 개의 나무 예측치 보다 검증용 자료 오분류률을 줄이는데 있어서 더 정확하다 라는 것은 잘 알려져 있는 사실이다. 다중나무를 생성하는 두 가지 방법이 있다. 하나는 원래의 훈련용 자료를 재 추출하여 수정된 훈련용자료들을 만든 다음에 각각의 수정된 훈련용 자료에 근거하여 나무를 만드는 것이다. arcing 알고리즘이 효율적이라고 알려져있다. 다른 방법은 각각의 마디에서 최적 분리의 후보들 중에서 랜덤하게 하나를 선택하여 나무를 생성하는데에, 이 과정을 반복하면 원래의 훈련용 자료에 대해서 비교적 좋은 나무들을 생성하리라 기대되다. 우리는 arcing의 각 단계에서 후자의 다중회귀나무예측치들을 사용하는 결합다중회귀나무예측치를 제안하고, 효능 있는 화합물들을 찾기 위한 고속의 대량 선별 자료 분석의 예를 통해서 예측방법들의 효율성을 비교한다.

본 논문에서는 기존에 제시된 MR-tree와 SQR-tree의 장점을 결합하여 대용량 공간 데이타를 보다 효율적으로 처리할 수 있는 하이브리드 인덱스 구조인 SQMR-tree(Spatial Quad MR-tree)를 제시한다. MR-tree는 R-tree에 R-tree 리프 노드를 직접 접근해주는 매핑 트리를 적용한 인덱스 구조이고, SQR-tree는 SQ-tree (Spatial Quad-tree)와 SQ-tree의 리프 노드마다 실제로 공간 객체를 저장하는 R-tree가 결합된 인덱스 구조이다. SQMR-tree는 SQR-tree를 기본 구조로 SQR-Tree의 R-tree 마다 매핑 트리가 적용된 형태를 가진다. 따라서, SQMR-tree는 SQR-tree와 같이 공간 객체가 여러 R-tree에 분산 저장되며 질의 영역에 해당하는 R-tree만 접근하면 되기 때문에 공간 질의 처리 비용을 줄일 수 있다. 또한, SQMR-tree는 MR-tree와 같이 매핑 트리를 통해 트리 검색 없이 R-tree 리프 노드의 빠른 접근이 가능하기 때문에 검색 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다. 마지막으로 실험을 통해 SQMR-tree의 우수성을 입증하였다.

In this study of the oak wilt disease that has occurred in a large scale in a protected area located near South Korea's metropolitan region, a detailed analysis has been conducted on the terrain, species and Diameters at Breast Height (DBH) of infected trees to identify the distribution of infection properties in the affected area. Taking into consideration the distribution of oak tree vegetation, a total of 4,640 quadrats in a size of 10 m by 10 m, have been set; and oak tree species, the DBH and infection damage per quadrat have been investigated. Geological properties have been analyzed according to elevation, slope, aspect and micro topography while a weighted value has been given according to the degree of infection in order to calculate an infection index. Through correlation analysis, the infection ratio of seriously-damaged and withered trees and the infection index have been analyzed with regards to the geological properties, tree species and DBH. The analysis shows that the disease tends to affect an area with medium elevation rather than those in the highest or lowest areas and that serious damage has been observed at rugged spots with a steep gradient (more than $30^{\circ}$). Although there has been no distinct tendency with regards to aspect, the infection ratio is relatively high in areas facing the north while the seriously-damaged and withered ratio are high in areas facing the south. In terms of micro topography, more damage has been spotted in valley terrain. Quercus mongolica has sustained more damage than other species. When it comes to the DBH, as seen in previous studies, large trees have suffered severe damage, but the analysis has also revealed conspicuous damage to medium trees with a DBH of 15-20 cm, which had not previously been considered at high risk.

The r-ary number sequences given by $$(b^{(r)}_n)_{n{\geq}0}=\Large{\frac{1}{(r-1)n+1}}(^{rn}_n)$$ are analogs of the sequence of the Catalan numbers ${\frac{1}{n+1}}(^{2n}_n)$. Their history goes back at least to Lambert [8] in 1758 and they are of considerable interest in sequential testing. Usually, the sequences are considered separately and the generalizations can go in several directions. Here we link the various r first by introducing a new combinatorial structure related to GR trees and then algebraically as well. This GR transition generalizes to give r-ary analogs of many sequences of combinatorial interest. It also lets us find infinite numbers of combinatorially defined sequences that lie between the Catalan numbers and the Ternary numbers, or more generally, between $b^{(r)}_n$ and $b^{(r+1)}_n$.

Classification tree is one of the most suitable base learners for ensemble. For past decade, it was found that bagging gives the most accurate prediction when used with unpruned tree and boosting with stump. Researchers have tried to understand the relationship between the size of trees and the accuracy of ensemble. With experiment, it is found that large trees make boosting overfit the dataset and stumps help avoid it. It means that the accuracy of each classifier needs to be sacrificed for better weighting at each iteration. Hence, split effect in boosting can be explained with the trade-off between the accuracy of each classifier and better weighting on the misclassified points. In bagging, combining larger trees give more accurate prediction because bagging does not have such trade-off, thus it is advisable to make each classifier as accurate as possible.

The specific configuration of the safety systems in VVER-1000/V320 reactors allows a comprehensive study of the Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA). In the present paper, a verification of the success criteria of the event trees headers for the medium and large break LOCA sequences is conducted. A detailed TRACEV5P5 thermal-hydraulic model of the reactor has been developed, including all safety systems. When analyzing the results of all sequences, some conservatism is observed in certain specific configurations as the success criterion of some headers is not consistent with the classic PSA level 1. Therefore, new proposals for the LOCA event trees are performed based on a reconfiguration of LOCA break ranges and the use of the expanded event trees approach.

Soil is a rich source of saprobic and pathogenic fungi in crop cultivation areas. Compared with that of the fruit trees, scarce information is available regarding the fungi present in orchard soils in Korea. We sampled rhizosphere soils of apple and pear trees from several orchards in Cheongju, Anseong, and Cheonan, Korea. During the processing of soil fungi, seven unrecorded species of the phylum Ascomycota were isolated. These included Acrocalymma walkeri, Clonostachys krabiensis, Coniella vitis, Cosmospora diminuta, Lasiobolidium spirale, Penicillium vallebormidaense, and Pseudothielavia arxii. All the species were identified and described based on morphological characteristics and molecular analysis of the ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 region and the large subunit of nuclear ribosomal RNA gene and partial β-tubulin gene (BenA) sequences. Descriptions and illustrations of the morphological characteristics are provided.
