PM10, NOx, and $O_3$ were measured at six locations, of which each three is horizontally and vertically distributed respectively, in an apartment complex around the heavily traffic road. Those were measured seven times a day with two hours interval starting from 8 o'clock in the morning for 15 days during May 2005 $\sim$ September 2005. PM10 and NOx showed high concentrations in rush hours while low concentrations in midday due to the direct emissions from automobiles in operation. Temporal variations of 01 showed very much similar trend appeared in normal urban atmospheres. The spatial distributions of PM10, NOx and $O_3$ showed that almost all of concentrations were higher in a row of Roadside > Surface at 130 m apart from the road > Surface at 230 m apart from the road > 3rd floor of apartment building > 15th floor of apartment building > 27th floor of apartment building. Model equations, which can project spatial concentration distributions, were constructed by combining the horizontal and the vertical linear regression equations derived from six mean values corresponding to six measuring locations. According to inter-comparison of PM10, NOx, and $O_3$ with the constructed model equations, concentration gradients were higher in a row of Vertical direction of NOx > Vertical direction of PM10 > Horizontal direction of NOx > Horizontal direction of PMIO > Vertical direction of $O_3$ > Horizontal direction of $O_3$. Why concentration gradient of particulate PM10 is lower than that of gaseous NOx is in question, and should be studied.

We propose a method for target detection in Infrared images. In order to effectively detect a target region from an image with noises and clutters, spatial information of the target is first considered by analyzing pixel distributions of projections in horizontal and vertical directions. These distributions are represented as Gaussian distributions, and Gaussian Mixture Model is created from these distributions in order to find thresholding points of the target region. Through analyzing the calculated Gaussian Mixture Model, the target region is detected by eliminating various backgrounds such as noises and clutters. This is performed by using a novel thresholding method which can effectively detect the target region. As experimental results, the proposed method has achieved better performance than existing methods.

An experimental investigation of the flow around a vertical fence was carried out using a PIV velocity field measurement technique. The vertical fence was embedded in a turbulent boundary layer. The instantaneous velocity fields measured at cross-sectional planes reveal complex longitudinal vortices that vary in size and strength, developing from the upstream location. In the instantaneous vorticity and velocity field data, the shear flow separated from the fence top is highly turbulent and shows unsteady flow characteristics. The topography of the ensemble averaged velocity fields, especially the separation bubble formed behind the fence, shows that the spatial distributions of streamwise velocity (U) and vertical (V) are symmetric, the spanwise velocity (W) is skew-symmetric with respect to the central xy-plane(z=0).

Spatial and vertical variations of butyltins(BTs) were investigated in polluted sediments from Jinhae, Busan, Ulsan and Yeongil Bays located in the southeastern part of Korea. Tributyltin(TBT) as a dominant species was detected in 18 of the 20 surficial sediments, and TBT levels were lower that for those in heavily polluted areas worldwide, ranging from 12 to 766 ng Sn/g dry wt. Distribution of TBT levels among bays was not significantly different (p=0.286, ANOVA). The horizontal distributions observed at 20 sites suggests that TBT concentrations are still high in polluted sites around harbors and industrial complexes. The sedimentary records a peak in the early 1990s in Jinhae Bay, in the mid 1980s in Ulsan Bay and in the late 1970s in Yeongil Bay except for Busan Bay which had a homogenous profile. In paricular, TBT at the surface sediments of four core samples still had high levels. From the horizontal and vertical results, it could be assumed that TBT inputs in the sediments were not reduced significantly compared to past levels. The annual accumulation rates estimated using the sedimentation rates and the concentration of surficial sediments exhibited that the accumulation rate of Ulsan Bay was greater than the rates for Jinhae and Yeongil Bays.

We investigated the spatial and temporal patterns of water quality in the Gangjung-Goryoung weir that is located in the middle area of the Nakdong river, Korea. The monitoring results indicated that there are discernible vertical differences in water quality during the pre- and post-monsoon periods (May to September). During this period, it was observed that the weak thermal stratification formed at the maximum level, and pH, Chl-a, and DO concentrations in the surface layer were higher than those in the bottom layer. This vertical difference was especially noticeable for DO concentrations: there were DO depletions at the bottom layer in late June to early August. During the summer monsoon period with heavy rainfall, there was a decline in vertical differences in water quality. From this study, it was suggested that continuous monitoring of vertical profiles could become a useful tool for identifying the spatial and temporal distributions of water quality and for developing the best management policy for water quality in the Nakdong river.

본 연구는 동해 중부 연안에 서식하는 명태의 연직 분포와 개체 크기의 계절 및 연간 변화를 분석하였다. 2016년 1월부터 2018년 2월까지 채집된 명태 개체의 전장은 16.6 cm~81.5cm 범위를 나타내었으며, 50~600 m 사이의 수심대에서 어획되었다. 이 중 25~35 cm 그룹이 차지하는 비율은 45.5%, 35~45 cm 그룹이 차지하는 비율은 27.2%를 나타내며 높은 비율을 차지하였다. 평균 전장은 1월에 가장 크고, 6월에 가장 작았으며, 6월 이후 점차 증가하는 계절주기 변동 특성을 나타내었다. 25 cm 미만 그룹은 100~200 m 수심에 서식하는 비율이 겨울철에 가장 높으며, 이후 봄, 여름, 가을에는 보다 깊은 수심으로 주 서식처를 변화하여 400 m 이상 수심에서 서식하는 비율이 40% 이상을 차지하였다. 25~35 cm와 35~45 cm 개체 그룹의 겨울철 연직 분포는 400 m 이상 수심에서 서식하는 비율이 45% 이상을 기록하였으며, 봄과 여름에는 보다 얕은 수심영역으로 서식처를 변화하여 200 m 미만 수심에서 서식하는 비율이 증가하였다. 이후 가을부터는 다시 서식하는 수심대가 깊어져 300 m 이상 수심의 비율이 증가하였다. 45 cm 이상 개체 그룹은 뚜렷한 계절 변동성을 나타내지 않으며 300 m 이상 수심에서 서식하는 비율이 가장 높았다. 이러한 명태의 연직 분포는 서식처의 물리적 환경 변화에 영향을 받는다. 특히, 상층부의 수온이 상승하고 수온약층 아래 100~300 m 수심대의 수온이 하강한 시기에는 300 m 이상의 깊은 수심대에서 어획되는 비율은 감소한 반면, 수온이 하강한 100~300 m 수심대에서 어획되는 비율이 증가하였다.

Numerical simulations were carried out to understand the effect of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) spatial distribution on regional circulation. A three-dimensional non-hydrostatic atmospheric model RAMS, version 6.0, was applied to examine the impact of SST forcing on regional circulation. New Generation Sea Surface Temperature (NGSST) data were implemented to RAMS to compare the results of modeling with default SST data. Several numerical experiments have been undertaken to evaluate the effect of SST for initialization. First was the case with NGSST data (Case NG), second was the case with RAMS monthly data (Case RM) and third was the case with seasonally averaged RAMS monthly data (Case RS). Case NG showed accurate spatial distributions of SST but, the results of RM and RS were $3{\sim}4^{\circ}C$ lower than buoy observation data. By analyzing practical sea surface conditions, large difference in horizontal temperature and wind field for each run were revealed. Case RM and Case RS showed similar horizontal and vertical distributions of temperature and wind field but, Case NG estimated the intensity of sea breeze weakly and land breeze strongly. These differences were due to the difference of the temperature gradient caused by different spatial distributions of SST. Diurnal variations of temperature and wind speed for Case NG indicated great agreement with the observation data and statistics such as root mean squared error, index of agreement, regression were also better than Case RM and Case RS.

To investigate the distribution of air pollutants dispersion in the horizontal wind fields, a chaff release experiment was carried out by an airplane. The temporal and spatial variations of a chaff plume from an elevated point source using the WSR-88D(NEXRAD) radar. The observed profiles of radar reflectivity were compared with the Gaussian diffusion model at slightly unstable atmospheric condition. The present study shows that the distributions of radar reflectivity from chaffs and their concentration by the model are in general agreement with time variation. The dispersion coefficients in downwind($\sigma$(sub)x) and crosswind($\sigma$(sub)y) spread data exceeded what has generally been found at Pasquill and Brigg\`s estimates. As a result, it was clearly shown that horizontal and vertical diffusion coefficients are more accurately determined as compared with theoretical coefficients. At longer diffusion distances(than 10km), a radar observation provided the determination of maximum range and diffusion height more qualitatively, too.

During the CareBeijing campaign in September 2006, Imaging Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (IDOAS) measurements were made over the city of Beijing, China using a spatial resolution of 146 pixels horizontally and 61 pixels vertically, each with a field of view of $0.133^{\circ}$ and $0.072^{\circ}$ in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively. Using Fraunhofer reference spectra (FRS) for the evaluation of data for two consecutive days, the diurnal variation of $NO_2$ distributions was determined from data measured every single hour from 08:00 until 16:00 on September 9 and 10. Both days presented a fairly clear sky with high visibility. The setup allowed detailed images of the low surface $NO_2$ distribution over Beijing. Images with less than a 30-min temporal resolution showed variation of plume dispersal in both horizontal and vertical directions. An in-situ measurement was also conducted. Results from both instruments are interpreted by considering local emission sources and wind conditions.
