  • 최근 지구온난화 및 기후변화로 인해 단시간에 높은 강우강도를 가지고 발생하는 집중호우 홍수 등의 위험기상으로 인한 인명 및 재산피해가 빈번하게 발생하고 있어 초단기 및 단기 강수 예측에 대한 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 단기 강수예측모델은 다양한 관측자료의 사용과 자료동화기법의 개발로 예측능력이 크게 향상되었지만 수치모델의 고유특성인 스핀업(spin-up) 문제로 1~6시간까지 강수예측성능에 한계를 보인다. 반면 초단기 강수예측모델은 레이더기반으로 외삽법을 이용하여 1~3시간까지 높은 정확도의 강수예측을 하지만 강수에코의 생성 소멸의 물리과정을 포함하지 않아 3시간 이후의 정확도가 낮다. 이러한 단기 및 초단기 강수예측모델의 장점을 반영하여 최적 강수예측 자료 생산을 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 초단기 및 단기 강수예측모델의 예측성능을 평가하였으며 모델의 예측성능 기반의 최적 강수자료 병합기법을 개발하였다. 향후 최적 강수예측 자료 생산체계가 구축되면 수문관련 유관기관에서 하천관리에 사용하는 유량예측모델에 시 공간적 고해상도의 강수예측정보를 제공하여 수문분야의 유량예측 정확도 행상에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

  • 기후변화 및 지구온난화로 인한 자연재해 규모가 점차 대형화, 다양화되고 있어 이로 인한 피해도 증대되고 있다. 특히, 다양한 시설과 인구밀도가 높은 도심 지역은 집중호우, 태풍, 홍수 등 자연재해에 취약하여 인적·물적 피해 위험성이 매우 높다. 방재 시설확보 및 개선을 통한 더 높은 안정성 및 기상예보를 통한 대응, 대책을 통한 피해 저감이 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 일반적으로 제공되는 단일 수치모형 기반의 결정론적 기상예측정보는 기상 상태, 선행시간, 모형 매개변수 등으로 인한 불확실성이 매우 크며 이에 대한 정보가 제공되지 않다. 이러한 문제점을 보완하기 위해 앙상블 수치모델 정보와 기상레이더 자료 기반의 단기 예측정보가 활용이 가능하다. 그러나, 앙상블 수치모델의 불확실성, 기상레이더 기반 예측정보의 짧은 예측 선행시간으로 인해 수문학적 모형에 입력자료로 활용은 어려운 실점이다. 본 연구에서는 지점 관측자료의 시간적 연속성, 기상레이더 자료의 공간적 연속성, 앙상블 예측정보의 선행시간 정보를 융합하여 기상예측정보에 대한 불확실성 개선 및 선행시간에 따른 정확도를 높일 방법을 제안하였다. 기상청에서 제공하는 앙상블 예측자료인 LENS 자료, 레이더 강수량, ASOS 관측자료 기반으로 분석이 수행되었으며 분석결과는 예측강수량을 활용하는 분야에 긍정적 영향을 미칠 것으로 기대된다.

  • Recently, starting with the permanent suspension of Gori 1 in Korea, the importance of the disposal of concrete structures in nuclear power plants has emerged, and environmental and safety are required to be proved accordingly. Safe radioactive waste disposal technology that immobilizes harmful radioactive elements, which are by-products of nuclear power, inside a solid matrix and recycling measures are needed to secure an efficient waste disposal space. This study was conducted to confirm whether recycled cement generated in the process of radioactive concrete treatment can be used as a solidifying material for radioactive waste treatment. In order to simulate the concrete exposed to radiation, aqueous solutions of Di-water, CsCl 1M, and CoCl2 1M were used as blending water at W/B 0.5. Tricalcium phosphate and Prussian blue were substituted with 5 wt.% based on the weight of recycled cement as a binder to improve solidification performance, and their hydration characteristic was analyzed.

  • This study generated the radar-based forecasted rainfall using spatial-scale decomposition method (SCDM) and evaluated the hydrological applicability with forecasted rainfall by KMA (MAPLE, KONOS) in terms of urban flood forecasting. SCDM is to separate the small-scale field (convective cell) and large-scale field (straitform cell) from radar rainfield. And each separated field is forecasted by translation model and storm tracker nowcasting model for improvement of QPF accuracy. As the evaluated results of various QPF for three rainfall events in Seoul and Metropolitan area, proposed method showed better prediction accuracy than MAPLE and KONOS considering the simplicity of the methodology. In addition, this study assessed the urban hydrological applicability for Gangnam basin. As the results, KONOS simulated the peak of water depth more accurately than MAPLE and SCDM, however cannot simulated the timeseries pattern of water depth. In the case of SCDM, the quantitative error was larger than observed water depth, but the simulated pattern was similar to observation. The SCDM will be useful information for flood forecasting if quantitative accuracy is improved through the adjustment technique and blending with NWP.

  • Ginseng saponin was isolated from panax ginseng root using high-speed countercurrent chromatography (HSCCC). Preliminary studies were performed to optimize physical properties of two-phase solvent system and operating parameters including rotation speed of column, elution mode of mobile phase, and flow rate. Two-phase solvent system for isolation of ginseng saponins was composed of chloroform, water, and methanol as blending solvent. Chloroform-aqueous methanol (4:6) systems with various concentration of methanol in water were evaluated for retention of stationary phase in column. Retention of stationary phase decreased with increasing flow rate in tail-to-head elution mode using upper phase as mobile phase and head-to-tail elution mode using lower phase as mobile phase. Latter mode produced high retention at flow rate of 5 mL/min. Optimum conditions for isolation of saponin were chloroform/methanol/water (40/39/21) solvent system; mobile phase, of lower organic layer, flow rate, of 5 mL/min, head to tail elution mode, rotation speed, of 800 rpm, and sample injection, of $200{\mu}L$, Recovery yield of ginseng saponin from panax ginseng root extract by HSCCC was 63.6%, and the purity of HSCCC fractions was verified by TLC.

  • Over the last three decades, Korean farming system has been directed to maximum agricultural production and to increase farmer's income through adoption of high-yielding crop varieties and high input of agrochemicals . These farming practices have resulted in problems of water-quality deterioration, soil degradation , and food safety. At present, over 40 million tones of animal waste are bing produced annually, which amounts to disposing the waste at the annual rate of 20 tones per ha in the total area of farming land in Korea. Nearly a half of total available water resources is used as irrigation water predominantly for rice paddy field. Thus, non-point source contamination of the water resources has been linked to agriculture across the nation. However, the extent to which agriculture contributes to the water quality is not fully known. Recently, Korean government provided various institutional measures to reduce the negative impacts of agricultural practices on the environ ental quality, and the Agricultural Environment Act was also passed by the legislature in 1998 and became effective January 1999. This Act does not cover the broad spectrum of the sustainable agriculture ; thus, the limited incentives within this Act are arguably ineffective to control the non-point source pollution. Recently new bulk blending of fertilizers(BB fertilizer) are bing produced (100, 000 tones in 1998) with Government subsidies. The BB fertilizers are to balance N-P-K ratio in the soils . Although the use of the BB fertilizers are encouraged with Government subsidies, non-point source pollution is still serious and will become worse. Precision farming is regarded as a new means for sustainable agriculture. It is a new technology that modifies the existing techniques and incorporates new one such as GIS, GPS , differential applicator to produce a new set of tools for the farmer to use. Precision farming, however, has constraints for individual farming practices. For exam le , farm size or parcel unit of each farmer is too small to adopt the precision agriculture on farmhouse-hold bases and farmer's ability to adopt the new technology is limited. However, it would be appropriate to establish local or regional cooperatives to operate such a precision farming system. It is recommended that Government provide sufficient incentives to help establish local and/or regional cooperatives.

  • The objective of this paper is to compare the applicability of assimilable organic carbon (AOC) or biodegradable dissolved organic carbon (BDOC) for quantifying biodegradable organic material (BOM) and bio-stability in distribution systems for a variety of finished waters. The study the data is derived from was part of an AWWARF and Tampa Bay Water tailored collaboration project to determine the effect of blending different waters on distribution system water quality. Seven different finished waters were produced from surface, ground, or brackish water on site and fed 18 independent pilot distribution systems (PDSs), either as single finished water or as a blend of several finished waters. AOC and BDOC have often been used as indicators of bacterial regrowth potential in distribution systems. In this study, AOC was the more useful assay of the two for the BOM concentrations observed in the PDSs. BDOC did not distinguish BOM while AOC did at the low BOM levels from many of the advanced treatments (e.g. RO, $O^3/BAC$). AOC in contrast allowed much more meaningful calculations of the consumption or production of AOC as the blends passed through the PDSs even for very low BOM blends. In addition, meaningful trends corresponding to changes in heterophic plate count (HPC) were observed for AOC but not for BDOC. Moreover, AOC stability was associated with waters produced from advanced membrane treatment.

  • Proton conducting solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) membranes have been used in many energy technological applications such as water electolysis, fuel cells, redox-flow battery, and other electrochemical devices. The availability of stable membranes with good electrochemical characteristics as proton conductivity at high temperatures above 80 $^{\circ}C$ and low cost are very important for its applications. However, the presently available perfluorinated ionomers are not applicable because of high manufacturing cost and high temperature use to the decrease in the proton conductivity and mechanical strength. In order to make up for the weak points, the block copolymer (BPSf) of polysulfone and poly (phenylene sulfide sulfone) were synthesized and sulfonated. The electrolyte membranes were prepared with phosphotungstic acid (HPA)/sulfonated BPSf via solution blending. This study would be desirable to investigate the interaction between the HPA and sulfonated polysulfone. The results showed that the characteristics of SPSf/HPA blend membrane was a better than Nafion at high temperature, 100 $^{\circ}C$. These membranes proved to have a high proton conductivity, $6.29{\times}10-2$ S/cm, a water content, 23.9%, and a ion exchange capacity, 1.97 meq./g dry membrane. Moreover, some of the membranes kept their high thermal and mechanical stability.
