This study analyzes the results of thunderstorm data observed in the mid-western part of Japan during the winter of 1996-1997. There were 35 instances of thunderstorms with 4,426 instances of lightning detected during the observation period. This study estimates the frequency of lightning occurrence through classification of detected lightning into two types, and analyzes the relationship between lightning types and synoptic pattern. According to the analyzed results, cloud-to-cloud discharge and positive polarity occupied 78% and 42.3% of total discharge, respectively. It is rare for lightning to occur in the winter season, usually occuring during the night (midnight to 5 a.m.). Lightning frequently occurs when there is a prevailing synoptic wind from the norhwest. According to the analyzed results of multiplicity and multi-point lightning, the mean values of multiplicity and multi-point lightning are 1.4 and 1.2, respectively.

최근 기후변화로 인한 국지적 또는 대규모 극한 가뭄과 홍수가 빈발함에 따라 수자원 관리 여건은 점점 더 어려워지고 있다. 이런 물 관련 재해에 보다 효과적으로 대응하기 위해서는 수자원인자에 대한 시공간적 모니터링이 필수적인데, 이러한 관점에서 시공간적 광역관측이 가능한 위성자료의 활용가치는 매우 높게 평가되고 있으며, 최근에는 국내외적으로 위성자료를 이용하여 수문 인자 산출, 가뭄 홍수 등의 모니터링 기술 등에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. K-water는 위성정보 활용기술력 축적을 통한 보다 효율적인 수자원 관리를 하기 위하여 수자원 분야에 활용 가능한 해외의 주요 위성자료를 실시간 직수신 처리하여 표출하는 K-water 위성영상관리시스템(K-SIMS, K-water Satellite Image Management System)을 2015년에 구축하였다. 현재 K-SIMS를 통해 관리되는 위성은 AQUA, TERRA, NPP, GCOM-W, GPM로서 총 5개이다. AQUA, TERRA, NPP 위성은 각 궤도운영 스케쥴에 따라 한반도 상공을 통과하는 시각에 안테나가 위성의 궤도를 따라가며 수신하고, GCOM-W, GPM 위성자료는 FTP 접속를 통해 준실시간으로 수신하고 있다. 산출물은 AQUA, TERRA, NPP가 각각 23종, GCOM-W 9종, GPM 2종 등 총 80여종으로 위성원시자료 수신즉시 처리 표출까지 실시간 자동 수행되고 있으나 식생지수, 강수, 구름, 대기온도, 수증기 등 대부분 수문기상학적 변수들로 구성되어 있어 수자원 관리 현업 업무에는 직접 사용하기에는 다소 한계가 있다. 따라서, 위성자료의 활용성을 높이기 위하여 수문해석에 중요한 변수인 토양수분에 대해서 AQUA, TERRA의 MODIS LST(Land Surface Temperature)와 식생지수(Vegetation Index)를 이용하여 SMI(Soil Moisture Index)를 산출하고 이를 K-SIMS에 표출하는 체계를 추가로 구축하여 현업 활용도가 높은 자료를 생산하고 있으며, 향후 위성자료를 활용한 가뭄지수를 추가로 산출하여 표출할 계획이다. 이와 함께 K-water는 차세대 중형위성 개발 사업에 따른 수자원 위성 확보에 대비해 수자원 분야 위성활용 중장기 계획을 마련하였다. 향후에 광학위성, SAR위성 등 다양한 위성자료의 융복합적 활용을 통하여 위성산출물 알고리즘을 지속적으로 개발함으로써 홍수, 가뭄, 수질 등 물 재해 대응 및 수자원 관리 전 분야에 위성자료의 활용을 확대해 나갈 계획이다.

The purpose of the study was to perform a comparative analysis of the success and failure cases to increase the completeness of vault "Shirai-Kim Hee Hoon" technique. The subject of the study was "K" a male gymnast from Korean Artistic Gymnastic National team. The results obtained through the three-dimensional analysis during international as well as practice session are as follows: Firstly, excluding BC, the lead time in each PrF, HC and PoF phases were shorter during successful trials than in failure trials. Secondly, during successful trials, the horizontal and vertical velocity appeared to be higher during taking off, which contributed positively to the leaping motion in the horizontal direction. Thirdly, when compared with successful and failure trials, the body's angular rotation was highly maintained during the takeoff from the spring board followed by larger thigh angular displacement at the vault before actually attempting the backward rotation.

MODIS/Terra level 3 and NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis data from 2001 to 2008 have been analyzed to understand long-term aerosol and cloud optical properties, and their relationships around Korea. Interestingly, cloud fraction(CF) has the similar annual variation to aerosol optical depth (${\tau}_a$) without any temporal significant trend. Horizontal distributions of ${\tau}_a$ showed the substantial horizontal gradient from China to Korea, especially with the strong difference over the Yellow Sea, which could represent the evidence of the anthropogenic influence from China in the perspective of long-term average. Specifically the negative correlations between ${\tau}_a$ and liquid-phase cloud effective radius ($r_e$) were shown on the monthly-average basis, only in summer with significant associations over the Yellow Sea, but not in the other seasons and/or specific regions. Relationship between ${\tau}_a$ and CF for the low-level liquid-phase clouds exhibited the overall positive correlation, being consistent with cloud lifetime effect. Meanwhile static stability showed no deterministic relationships with ${\tau}_a$ as well as CF. The dependence of aerosol-cloud relationship on the meteorological conditions should be examined more in detail with the satellite remote sensing and reanalysis data.

In Korea, heavy rainfall is mainly induced by the Changma front or frontal system passed over Korea periodically. Both its unknown mesoscale characteristics and the lack of direct measurements make it difficult to predict precipitation reasonably. To understand its 3-dimensional structure, initiation and development mechanism of precipitation in that system will be very helpful to forecast it more accurately. A meteorological radar is specially useful because it produces direct measurement with high resolution in time and space. In this study, representative frontal system is selected and analyzed specially focused on its vertical structure using radar data. Results shows that there are convective cells with horizontal scale of 10 - 20 km in precipitation system. Melting layer located between 3 and 5 km height, maximum fall speeds of rain drops were seen just below bright band.

한국해양연구원에서 수신한 자료인 NOAA 12, 16, 17, 18호등의 Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer(AVHRR) 센서자료와 국립조사원에서 제공하는 해양실측자료인 정선 관측 자료를 이용하여 두 가지의 알고리즘 적용을 통하여 비교 및 분석을 해보고자 한다. 연구 기간은 2006년 1월부터 4월 자료 중 구름의 영향이 없는 영상에서 실측자료와 동일한 날짜 총 107개의 정점 값을 추출하였다. 위성 자료에서 해수면 온도 추출방법은 split window 방법으로, 고정계수 값을 사용하는 linear algorithm(MCSST), nonlinear algorithm(NLMCSST)을 이용하였다. 연구 지역은 동해, 황해, 남해 지역에 대한 지역별로 두 알고리즘을 비교 적용하였다. 전 해역의 값을 이용하여 위성자료와 실측자료를 비교 분석한 결과 linear algorithm방법의 평균 오차 값은 0.71$^{\circ}C$이고 상관도는 1%이고, nonlinear 방법의 오차 값은 0.35$^{\circ}C$ 상관도는 1%로 나타났다. 해역별로는 linear한 알고리즘을 적용하여 동해는(ES)는 R=1, 오차 값은 0.37$^{\circ}C$ 황해(YS)는 R=0.99 오차 값은 0.125$^{\circ}C$ 남해(SS)는 R=0.99 오차 값은 1.2$^{\circ}C$보였다. nonlinear한 알고리즘을 적용하여 동해는(ES)는 R=1, 오차 값은 0.4$^{\circ}C$ 황해(YS)는 R=0.99 오차 값은 0.13$^{\circ}C$ 남해(SS)는 R=0.99 오차 값은 0.82$^{\circ}C$의 결과를 보여 주었다. 동해와 황해지역은 linear한 알고리즘을 적용한 결과가 실측자료와의 오차 값이 작았고, 남해지역은 linear한 알고리즘을 적용한 결과보다 nonlinear 알고리즘을 적용한 것이 작은 오차 값을 보여주었다. 이는 남해 해역의 자료가 대기의 상태나 다른 영향을 받아 해수면온도 값이 추정된 것으로 보여 진다. 해역별로 최적화된 알고리즘을 적용하여 해수면온도의 산출을 통해서 위성자료의 정밀도 지구환경변화 모니터링 등 많은 연구에 위성자료의 활용이 증대될 것으로 기대한다.

Nowadays, Mobile devices are now capable of supporting a wide range of applications. Unfortunately, some of applications demand an ever increasing computational power and mobile devices have limited resources due to their constraints, such as low processing power, limited memory, unpredictable connectivity, and limited battery life. To deal with mobile devices' constraints, researchers envision extending cloud computing services to mobile devices using virtualization techniques to shift the workload from mobile devices to a powerful computational infrastructure. Those techniques consist of migrating resource-intensive computations from a mobile device to the resource-rich cloud, or server (called nearby infrastructure). In this paper, we want to highlight on cloudlet architecture (nearby infrastructure with mobile devices), its functioning and in our future work, analyze effects of distance between cloudlet and mobile devices.

Microwave brightness temperature data measured from the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) aboard Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) satellite are used to investigate the characteristics of hydrological features of the East Asian summer monsoon during 1994 and 1995. The analyzed parameters include total columnar water vapor, cloud liquid water, and rain rate. These are estimated from SSM/I brightness temperature data for the two summer seasons (June, July, August) of 1994 and 1995 over the Asian monsoon region (0$^{\circ}$-60$^{\circ}$N, 45$^{\circ}$-180$^{\circ}$E). Results indicate that there are periodic westward movement of dry air over the 20$^{\circ}$-30$^{\circ}$N latitudinal belt with about 20-30 day period. Considering that the location of the North Pacific high is closely linked to the evolution of the monsoon activities over East Asia, the westward expansion of the North Pacific high may be the one important element modulating the monsoon intensity.

The DDS (Data Distribution Service) specification defines a discovery method for finding participants and endpoints in a DDS network. The standard discovery mechanism uses the multicast protocol and finds all the endpoints in the network. Because of using multicasting, discovery may fail in a network with different segments. Other problems include that memory space wastes due to storing information of all the endpoints. The Topic Name Service (TNS) solves these problems by unicasting only the endpoints, which are required for communication. However, an extra delay time is inevitable in components of TNS, i.e, a front-end server, topic name servers, and a terminal server. In this paper, we analyze the performance of TNS. Delay times in the servers of TNS and time required to receive endpoint information are measured. Time to finish discovery and number of receiving endpoints compare with the standard discovery method.

Optical satellite images are being used for national security and collection of information, and their utilization is increasing. However, it acquires low-quality images that are not suitable for the user's requirement due to weather conditions and time constraints. In this paper, a deep learning-based conversion of image and colorization model referring to high-resolution SAR images was created to simulate the occluded area with clouds of optical satellite images. The model was experimented according to the type of algorithm applied and input data, and each simulated images was compared and analyzed. In particular, the amount of pixel value information between the input black-and-white image and the SAR image was similarly constructed to overcome the problem caused by the relatively lack of color information. As a result of the experiment, the histogram distribution of the simulated image learned with the Gray-scale image and the high-resolution SAR image was relatively similar to the original image. In addition, the RMSE value was about 6.9827 and the PSNR value was about 31.3960 calculated for quantitative analysis.
