In this paper, error analyses on the calculation of offshore wind speed have been conducted using HeMOSU-1 data to develop offshore wind energy in Yeonggwang sea of Korea and onshore observed wind data in Buan, Gochang and Yeonggwang for 2011. Offshore wind speed data at 98.69 m height above M.S.L is estimated using relational expression induced by linear regression analysis between onshore and offshore wind data. In addition, estimated offshore wind speed data is set at 87.65 m above M.S.L using power law wind profile model with power law exponent(0.115) and its results are compared with the observed data. As a result, the spatial adjustment error are 1.6~2.2 m/s and the altitude adjustment error is approximately 0.1 m/s. This study shows that the altitude adjustment error is about 5% of the spatial adjustment error. Thus, long term observed data are needed when offshore wind speed was estimated by onshore wind speed data. because the conversion of onshore wind data lead to large error.

The sea surface wind field has long been obtained from satellite scatterometers or passive microwave radiometers. However, the importance of satellite altimeter-derived wind speed has seldom been addressed because of the outstanding capability of the scatterometers. Satellite altimeter requires the accurate wind speed data, measured simultaneously with sea surface height observations, to enhance the accuracy of sea surface height through the correction of sea state bias. This study validates the wind speeds from the satellite altimeters (GFO, Jason-1, Envisat, Jason-2, Cryosat-2, SARAL) and analyzes characteristics of errors. In total, 1504 matchup points were produced using the wind speed data of Ieodo Ocean Research Station (IORS) and of Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) buoys at Marado and Oeyeondo stations for 10 years from December 2007 to May 2016. The altimeter wind speed showed a root mean square error (RMSE) of about $1.59m\;s^{-1}$ and a negative bias of $-0.35m\;s^{-1}$ with respect to the in-situ wind speed. Altimeter wind speeds showed characteristic biases that they were higher (lower) than in-situ wind speeds at low (high) wind speed ranges. Some tendency was found that the difference between the maximum and minimum value gradually increased with distance from the buoy stations. For the improvement of the accuracy of altimeter wind speed, an equation for correction was derived based on the characteristics of errors. In addition, the significance of altimeter wind speed on the estimation of sea surface height was addressed by presenting the effect of the corrected wind speeds on the sea state bias values of Jason-1.

As land remote sensing applications are expanding to the extraction of quantitative information, the importance of atmospheric correction is increasing. Considering the difficulty of atmospheric correction for land images, it should be applied when it is necessary. The quantitative information extraction and time-series analysis on biophysical variables in land surfaces are two major applications that need atmospheric correction. Atmospheric aerosol content and column water vapor, which are very dynamic in spatial and temporal domain, are the most influential elements and obstacles in retrieving accurate surface reflectance. It is difficult to obtain aerosol and water vapor data that have suitable spatio-temporal scale for high- and medium-resolution multispectral imagery. Selection of atmospheric correction method should be based on the availability of appropriate aerosol and water vapor data. Most atmospheric correction of land imagery assumes the Lambertian surface, which is not the case for most natural surfaces. Further BRDF correction should be considered to remove or reduce the anisotropic effects caused by different sun and viewing angles. The atmospheric correction methods of optical imagery over land will be enhanced to meet the need of quantitative remote sensing. Further, imaging sensor system may include pertinent spectral bands that can help to extract atmospheric data simultaneously.

목적 : 고감도 형광판과 필름을 이용하여 실시간으로 선량을 측정하여 IMRT 선량분포를 검증하는데 사용하는 가능성을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 본 연구에서 개발한 물팬텀은 지름 25cm 아크릴 원통과 원통의 중앙부분에 삽입되는 고감도 형광판으로 구성되어 있다. 이를 사용하여 dose linearity correction factor를 구하기 위해 dmax 지점에서 6MV x-ray를 고감도형광판에 조사하여 blurring correction factor를 구하였다. CCD를 이용하여 고감도 형광판에서 나오는 영상을 수집하였다. 고감도 형광판에서 수집한 영상의 x축 profile은 RTP에서 얻은 profile과 비교하였고, 이온전리함으로 scanning한 데이터를 이용하여 고감도 형광판과 물에서 빛에 의한 산란선 때문에 발생하는 blurring effect를 교정하였다. 여기서 계산된 blurring effect factor를 고감도 형광판에서 수집된 영상에 적용하였다. 결과 : CCD 카메라는 형광판의 전 영역을 감지할 수 있고, 조사시간은 형광판의 중첩된 영상의 선량에 비례하였다. 물팬텀에서 형광판의 blurring effect 는 가우시안 분포로 표현할 수 있었다. 또한 Deconvolution kernel은 원통 팬텀에서 지름 $\pm$5cm 이내의 범위에 위치하였고, 따라서 형광판 영상으로부터의 실제 선량분 포를 뽑아낼 수 있었다. RTP 에서 계산된 선량분포와 blurring correction factor로 교정한 후 중첩시켜 얻은 고감도 형광판 영상의 선량분포는 일치하였다. 결론 : 정기적인 IMRT 선량 검증에 대한 실시간 선량측정 방법이 개발되었다. 고감도 형광판 영상과 CCD 카메라를 사용한 물팬텀으로, IMRT 치료계획에 대한 선량분포를 검증할 수 있는 가능성을 보였다.비의 회전에 의한 오차 보정, 필름의 광학적 밀도에 관한 보정 등 여러 가지 계통적 오차들에 대한 보정들이 선량분포 확인과정의 이해와 그 기준마련에 도움이 되겠지만 우리가 다룬 원점 불일치에 비해서 상대적으로 무시할 수 있었다. 마지막으로 선량분포 확인의 최종목표인 3 차원 선량분포 확인의 실제 적용을 위한 연구가 최적화 알고리듬을 이용하여 실험 중에 있다.\times$5cm, 10$\times$10cm, 15$\times$l5cm, 20$\times$20cm인 경우, 측정하여 얻은 PSF가 0.8%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.2%로 약간 높지만, 두 값은 매우 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고, 기존의 BSF를 이용해 구한 TAR과 BJR 25에서 권고하는 PSF를 이용해 구한 TAR을 비교한 결과 field size 에 따라 약 1%-1.5% 정도로 BSF를 이용하여 구한 TAR보다 PSF를 이용하여 구한 TAR이 1.3% 정도 높게 나타났지만, 이것은 두 값의 절대적인 차이일 뿐, 실제로는 PSF를 이용하여 구한 TAR이 측정해서 구한 TAR과는 매우 유사한 값을 보여주고 있다. 결론 : 기존의 BSF를 이용해 구한 TAR과 PSF를 이용해 구한 TAR을 비교하였을 때, 약 1.3% 정도 높게 내고 있지만, 기존의 TAR보다는 PSF를 이용해 구한 TAR이 BJR 25와 잘 일치하고 있으므로 Co-60 원격치료용 방사선 조사장치를 사용할 경우 BSF보다는 PSF를 사용하는 것이 타당한 것으로 사료된다.tokines의 변화는 비록 통계학적인 차이는 없지만 비타민 C를 사용한 환자의 cytokines이 모두 사용하지 않은 환자에 비해 감소하였음을 보였다. 비타민 C는 부작용이 거의 없는 안전한 약으로서 말기 암 환자에서 비타민 C사용은 임상 증상을 호전시키는 데 도움

하절기 고탁수로 문제가 되고 있는 임하호에 원활한 탁수배제를 위하여 선택취수시설이 설치되어 2006년 운영되었다. 본 연구는 이러한 선택취수시설에 대한 효과를 분석하기 위하여 CE-QUAL-W2 모형을 이용하여 호내의 탁수 분포를 분석하고 보정된 모형을 이용하여 선택취수와 표면취수(표층${\sim}7\;m$)에 따른 탁수의 저감효과에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 임하댐 유입부의 탁도 자동 측정 시스템에서 측정된 수온 및 탁도자료를 입력자료로 사용하였고, 모형의 호내의 4개지점의 수심별 자료에 대하여 보정을 실시하였다. 보정결과 관측값과 비교에서 절대 평균 오차(RMSE)는 5.2로 산정되었으며 수심별 수온 및 탁도 분포와 최고 탁도층이 발생하는 수심을 적절히 모의하였다. 선택취수시설을 적용한 경우 표면취수의 경우와 비교해서 100 NTU 이상의 고탁수층에 대해서는 (1) 호내의 탁수량이 $35\;Mm^3$이상이 저감되는 것으로 나타났고, (2) 고탁수의 방류량이 3배이상 증대되는 것으로 나타났다. 선택취수는 표면취수에 비해 고탁수층의 배제에 효과적이며 취수구의 위치 변경등 지속적인 관리를 통하여 효율적인 운영이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 효과분석 결과를 바탕으로 시설에 대한 운영방안을 수립할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Various types of altitude compensation nozzles have been investigated to develop an effective propulsion system. In order to obtain baseline data for future study of dual bell nozzles, main characteristics and key parameters of dual bell nozzles are summarized and described by analysing DLR dual bell nozzles. DLR's experimental researches show that inflection angle is proportional to transition NPR, and extension length is proportional to side load, but inversely proportional to transition NPR and transition duration. Therefore, the nozzle geometry can be determined through the performance prediction process and thus the optimization process is required to meet performance requirements between parameters.

Dual bell nozzle is a type of altitude compensation nozzle, which is a nozzle that minimize the losses of the specific impulse at the off-design point of a typical bell nozzle. In this paper, numerical computations are performed to understand the transition characteristics of dual bell nozzles with fixed expansion ratios. The major design variables are the length of extension and the angle of inflection. As the length of the extension increased, the transition altitude and transition duration increased and the reduction of the thrust coefficient decreased. As the angle of inflection increased, the transition altitude and transition duration decreased and the reduction of the thrust coefficient increased.

This study focuses on the correction of topographic effects caused by a combination of solar elevation and azimuth, and topographic relief in single optical remote sensing imagery, and by a combination of changes in position of the sun and topographic relief in comparative analysis of multi-temporal imageries. For the Jeju Island, Republic of Korea, where Mt. Halla and various cinder cones are located, a Landsat 7 ETM+ imagery and ASTER GDEM data were used to normalize the topographic effects on the imagery, using two topographic normalization methods: cosine correction assuming a Lambertian condition and assuming a non-Lambertian c-correction, with kernel sizes of $3{\times}3$, $5{\times}5$, $7{\times}7$, and $9{\times}9$ pixels. The effects of each correction method and kernel size were then evaluated. The c-correction with a kernel size of $7{\times}7$ produced the best result in the case of a land area with various land-cover types. For a land-cover type of forest extracted from an unsupervised classification result using the ISODATA method, the c-correction with a kernel size of $9{\times}9$ produced the best result, and this topographic normalization for a single land cover type yielded better compensation for topographic effects than in the case of an area with various land-cover types. In applying the relative radiometric normalization to topographically normalized three multi-temporal imageries, more invariant spectral reflectance was obtained for infrared bands and the spectral reflectance patterns were preserved in visible bands, compared with un-normalized imageries. The results show that c-correction considering the remaining reflectance energy from adjacent topography or imperfect atmospheric correction yielded superior normalization results than cosine correction. The normalization results were also improved by increasing the kernel size to compensate for vertical and horizontal errors, and for displacement between satellite imagery and ASTER GDEM.

This study suggested the systematic steps for quality control, construction of the climatological reference series and homogeneity test and adjustment of temperature series in the Republic of Korea. It also attempted to evaluate more accurate magnitude of change using adjusted temperature data. All erroneous values produced by quality control were detected by internal inconsistency check. The method selected for homogeneity test in this study well defined fairly correct signals of station relocations. Therefore, this method might be regarded as the appropriate one to test homogeneity of temperature series of the Republic of Korea. The increase of temperature of the Republic of Korea after the adjustment were bigger than before the adjustment of annual and seasonal mean temperature. Adjusted temperature data produced by these steps will enable to evaluate more accurate characteristics and magnitude of climate change.
