  • Factory-style plant production systems of various kinds are the final goal of greenhouse production systems. These systems facilitate planning for constant productivity per unit area and labor under various outside weather conditions, although energy consumption is intensive. Physical environmental control in combination with biological control can replace the use of agricultural chemicals such as insecticides, herbicides and hormones to regulate plants. In this way, closed systems which do not use such agricultural chemicals are ideal for environmental conservation for the future. Nutrient components in plants can be regulafied by physical environmental control including nutrient solution control in hydroponics. Therefore, specific contents of nutrients for particular plants can be listed on the container and be used as the basis of customer choice in the future. Plant production systems can be classified into three types based on the type of lighting: natural lighting, supplemental lighting and completely artificial lighting (Plant Factory). The amount of energy consumption increases in this order, although the degree of weather effects is in the reverse order. In the addition to lighting, factory-style plant production systems consist of mechanized and automated systems for transplanting, environmental control, hydroponics, transporting within the facility, and harvesting. Space farming and development of pharmaceutical in bio-reactors are other applications of these types of plant production systems. Various kinds of state-of-art factory-style plant production systems are discussed in the present paper. These systems are, in general, rather sophisticated and mechaized, and energy consumption is intensive. Factory-style plant production is the final goal of greenhouse production systems and the possibilities for the future are infinte but not clear.

  • Purpose: The statistical analysis of point processes on linear networks is a recent area of research that studies processes of events happening randomly in space (or space-time) but with locations limited to reside on a linear network. For example, traffic accidents happen at random places that are limited to lying on a network of streets. This paper applies techniques developed for point processes on linear networks and the tools available in the R-package spatstat to estimate the intensity of traffic accidents in Leon County, Florida. Methods: The intensity of accidents on the linear network of streets is estimated using log-linear Poisson models which incorporate cubic basis spline (B-spline) terms which are functions of the x and y coordinates. The splines used equally-spaced knots. Ten different models are fit to the data using a variety of covariates. The models are compared with each other using an analysis of deviance for nested models. Results: We found all covariates contributed significantly to the model. AIC and BIC were used to select 9 as the number of knots. Additionally, covariates have different effects such as increasing the speed limit would decrease traffic accident intensity by 0.9794 but increasing the number of lanes would result in an increase in the intensity of traffic accidents by 1.086. Conclusion: Our analysis shows that if other conditions are held fixed, the number of accidents actually decreases on roads with higher speed limits. The software we currently use allows our models to contain only spatial covariates and does not permit the use of temporal or space-time covariates. We would like to extend our models to include such covariates which would allow us to include weather conditions or the presence of special events (football games or concerts) as covariates.

  • 비행시 승무원이나 승객은 우주방사선과 공기나 비행기 기체와 반응하여 발생한 2차 산란선 등에 의해 피폭을 받게 된다. 항공기 승무원의 경우 우주기상 환경 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 계산된 피폭선량으로 방사선 안전관리를 적용받고 있다. 하지만, 태양활동이나 고도, 비행경로 등에 따라 피폭선량이 가변적이어서 계산법보다는 항로별 측정하는 것이 권고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 범용 Si 센서와 다중채널파고분석기를 이용하여 우주방사선 선량을 측정할 수 있는 선량계를 개발하였다. 선량계산은 미우주항공국의 우주방사선 측정장비인 CRaTER(Cosmic Ray Telescope for the Effects of Radiation)의 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 표준교정시설에서 Cs-137 662 keV 감마선으로 에너지 및 선량교정을 시행하였으며, 실험 범위에서 선량률 의존성이 없음을 확인하였다. 제작된 선량계를 이용하여 2023년 5월 두바이 인천 구간의 국제선에서 직접 선량을 측정한 결과 국내 우주방사선 선량평가코드(KREAM; Korean Radiation Exposure Assessment Model for Aviation Route Dose)로 계산된 결과와 12% 이내로 비슷하게 나타났으며, 고도와 위도가 높아짐에 따라 계산 결과와 동일하게 선량이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 좀 더 많은 실증적 검증 실험이 요구되는 제한점은 있지만, 항공기 내 또는 개인 피폭선량 모니터링에 가성비가 우수한 선량계로 충분한 활용 가능성을 확인하였다.

  • The objective of this study was to correct the bias of the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP)-based future precipitation data using a quantile mapping method. This method was adopted to correct extreme values because it was designed to adjust simulated data using probability distribution function. The Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution was used to fit distribution for precipitation data obtained from the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). The resolutions of precipitation data was 12.5 km in space and 3-hour in time. As the results of bias correction over the past 30 years (1976~2005), the annual precipitation was increased 16.3 % overall. And the results for 90 years (divided into 2011~2040, 2041~2070, 2071~2100) were that the future annual precipitation were increased 8.8 %, 9.6 %, 11.3 % respectively. It also had stronger correction effects on high value than low value. It was concluded that a quantile mapping appeared a good method of correcting extreme value.

  • SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) is an imaging radar which can scan and image Earth System targets without solar illumination. Most Earth observation Shh systems operate in X-, C-, S-, L-, and P-band frequencies, where the shortest wavelength is approximately 1.5 cm. This means that most opaque objects in the SAR signal path become transparent and SAR systems can image the planetary surface targets without sunlight and through rain, snow and/or even volcanic ash clouds. Most conventional SAR systems in operation, including the Canada's RADARSAT-1, operate in one frequency and in one polarization. This has resulted in black and with images, with which we are familiar now. However, with the launching of ENVTSAT on March 1 2002, the ASAR system onboard the ENVISAT can image Earth's surface targets with selected polarimetric signals, HH+VV, HH+VH, and VV+HV. In 2004, Canadian Space Agency will launch RADARSAT-II, which is C-band, fully polarimetric HH+VV+VH+HV. Almost same time, the NASDA of Japan will launch ALOS (Advanced land Observation Satellite) which will carry L-band PALSAR system, which is again fully polarimetric. This means that we will have at least three fully polarimetric space-borne SAR system fur civilian operation in less than one year. Are we then ready for this new all weather Earth Observation technology\ulcorner Actual imaging process of a fully polarimetric SAR system is not easy to explain. But, most Earth system scientists, including geologists, are familiar with polarization microscopes and other polarization effects in nature. The spatial resolution of the new generation of SAR systems have also been steadily increased, almost to the limit of highest optical resolution. In this talk some new applications how they are used for Earth system observation purpose.

  • 본 연구는 여름철 도시 공원의 열환경 개선효과를 측정하고 지점별 기상 측정 결과의 차이를 살펴보기 위하여 서울숲 공원 내외부에 측정 장비를 설치하고 측정값을 분석하였다. 특히 공원의 지점별 기상 측정값의 차이를 정밀하게 살펴보기 위하여 서울숲 광장부와 수변부, 공원 주변 도로부 3곳에 기상 측정 장비를 설치하고, 7월 9일에서 7월 30일 까지의 미기상 관측 자료를 측정하였으며 열 쾌적성 지표를 살펴보는 UTCI 분석을 통해서 공원의 지점별 열환경 개선 효과를 살펴보았다. 분석의 결과는 다음과 같다. 전체 측정 기간을 기준으로 서울숲의 온도는 광장부와 수변부가 주변의 도로부와 각각 2.7℃ 및 2.9℃ 낮은 것으로 나타났으며, 온도가 높은 10시에서 16시 사이 시간대를 기준으로 비교하였을 때에는 각각 5.5℃ 및 7.4℃로 매우 큰 차이가 나타났다. 또한 UTCI 분석을 통한 열 쾌적성 비교에서는 도로부와 공원부, 녹지부 사이의 유의미한 차이가 발견되었으며 또한 강한 햇볕으로 기온이 높은 10시에서 16시 시간대에 더욱 큰 차이가 나타났다. 이 외에 함께 측정된 미기상 자료들 중 미세먼지의 경우 측정 기간인 22년 7월 전체적으로 높은 날이 없었기 때문에 큰 차이가 나타나지는 않았으나 수변부, 광장부, 도로부 순으로 낮게 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났고, 이산화탄소 농도의 경우 광장부, 도로부, 수변부 순으로 높게 나타났다. 종합적으로 공원 내 두 지점에서는 시간대에 날씨에 따라 미기상 측정 결과와 열 환경 개선효과의 차이가 다르게 나타났으나, 공통적으로 공원 내 녹지부, 수변부는 모두 공원 도로부 지점과 비교하여 온도와 열 쾌적성 측면에서 유의미한 개선 효과가 나타났다.

  • Plant growth-promoting effects of rhizobacterial inoculation obtained in pot experiments cannot always be dependably reproduced in fields. In this study, we investigated the effect of inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense and Methylobacterium oryzae, which have displayed growth promoting effects in several pot experiments, on growth and fruit yield of red pepper under field condition in a plastic-film house. Four rows spaced 90 cm apart were prepared after application of compost ($10Mg\;ha^{-1}$), and red pepper seedlings (Capsicum annum L., Nocgwang) were transplanted in each row with 40-cm space. Experimental treatments were consisted of A. brasilense CW903 inoculation, M. oryzae CBMB20 inoculation, and uninoculated control. Twelve plots, 10 plants per plot, were allotted to the three treatments with four replicates in a completely randomized design. At the time of transplanting, 50 mL of each inoculum ($1{\times}10^8cells\;mL^{-1}$) was introduced into root zone soil of each plant, and re-inoculated at 7 and 14 days after transplant. Plant growth and fruit yield were measured during the experiment. Both A. brasilense CW903 and M. oryzae CBMB20 could not promote growth of red pepper plants. All growth parameters measured were not significantly different among treatments. There were large variations in fruit yield recorded on plot basis, and no statistically significant differences were found among treatments. The failure to demonstrate the expected plant growth promoting effect of the inoculants is possibly due to various environmental factors, including weather and soil characteristics, reducing the possibility to express the potential of the inoculated bacterial strains.

  • To understand the effects of marine environmental and meteorological parameters on laver Porphyra yezoensis production at Nakdong River Estuary, we analyzed marine environmental (water temperature, salinity, nutrients, etc.) and meteorological properties (air temperature, wind speed, precipitation, sunshine hours) with yearly and monthly variations in laver production over 10 years (2003-2013). Air and water temperature, wind speed, sunshine hours and precipitation were major factors affecting yearly variability in laver production at the Nakdong River Estuary. Lower air and water temperatures together with higher levels of nutrients and sunshine and stronger wind speeds resulted in higher laver harvests. Salinity and nitrogen did not show clear correlations with laver production, mainly due to the plentiful supply of nitrogen from river discharge and the low frequency of environmental measurements, which resulted in low statistical confidence. However, environmental factors affecting monthly laver production were related to the life cycle (culturing stage) of Porphyra yezoensis and were somewhat different from factors affecting annual laver production. In November, a young laver needs lower water temperatures for rapid growth, while a mature laver needs much stronger winds and more sunshine, as well as lower temperatures for massive production and effective photosynthesis, mostly in December and January. However, in spring (March), more stable environments with fewer fluctuations in air temperature are needed to sustain the production of newly deployed culture-nets ($2^{nd}$ time culture). These results indicate that rapid changes in weather and marine environments caused by global climate change will negatively affect laver production and, thus, to sustain the yield of and predict future variability in laver production at the Nakdong River estuary, environmental variation around laver culturing farms needs to be monitored with high resolution in space and time.

  • 군사작전에서의 융합성은 다영역에서 운용되는 감시, 결심 및 대응자산이 창출하는 효과를 동시에 통합함으로써 달성되고, 특수작전도 예외는 아니다. 하지만 적지종심지역에서 수행되는 특수작전은 적, 지형, 지리, 기상 등으로부터 발생하는 도전에 직면하기 때문에 지상, 공중, 해상, 사이버·전자기, 우주 등의 다영역에서 창출되는 효과를 하나로 결집하기가 쉽지 않다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 도전을 상쇄하기 위한 방안으로 장거리 정찰타격드론, 첨단센서, 재밍포드, 모듈형 통신중계기 등 첨단과학기술의 융복합을 제시했다. 향후 4차 산업혁명의 발전으로 특수작전의 융합성을 강화할 수 있는 다양한 첨단과학기술이 출현할 것이다. 따라서 이를 탐색하는 노력은 후속연구로 지속되어야 할것이다.
