The pertinent Korean Industrial Standard (KS F) requires that rocks dried at 105 ± 5℃ be taken out of the oven into air and weighed on a scale. However, when rocks are exposed to air after the drying process, they absorb moisture, meaning that their weight will increase. In this study, eight cubic samples of Hwangdeung granite of different sizes were used to measure and compare the dry weight. The dry singularity weight measured in air was smaller than that measured in the drying oven. The difference in dry weight showed a positive correlation with sample size. Conversely, the difference in dry weight per unit weight of rock showed a negative correlation with sample size. The weight of a rock sample exposed to air is determined by the magnitude of the influence of convection currents occurring around the heated rock and the influence of moisture absorption in air. A singularity occurs when the magnitudes of these two effects are equal. The larger the rock sample, the longer the time taken for the singularity to occur, the greater the weight loss of the sample, and the longer the time taken for the sample to return to the initially measured weight on account of the greater moisture absorption for larger samples than smaller samples. In the future, research into the singularity and dry weights measured inside the drying oven will help to identify and address the limitations of the current KS F testing regulations.

Haines index which include the rating of atmosphere instability and dryness indicated the potential of the forest fire danger. In this study, the relationships between forest fire occurrence and Haines index were analyzed. The probability of forest fire occurrence was the highest in April and HI 5, 6 and the dryness of atmosphere was higher than the atmosphere instability. Therefore, It was proved that HI affected on the forest fire occurrence and propagation.

연무란 육안으로 보이지 않는 극히 작고 건조한 고체입자가 대기 중에 떠 있는 현상으로, 그 수가 많아서 대기가 흐려 보이고 시정을 악화시키는 기상현상이다(기상청, 2002). 대기 중에 있는 고체성 또는 액체성 에어로졸에 대한 연구는 최근 대기질이 악화되고 에어로졸이 대기오염물질의 한 성분으로 인간과 동·식물뿐 아니라 연무, 스모그, 시정 장애, 안개와 구름, 기후변화의 한 요소로 작용함에 따라 관심이 집중되고 있다(김필수 등, 1986). (중략)

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of atmosphere-leaf vapor pressure deficit (VPD) in Heracleum moellendorffii and Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus. The VPD was rapidly increased with increasing temperature and decreasing relative humidity. Taken as a whole, the stomatal transpiration reaction was slightly late with increasing of VPD. Maximum photosynthetic rate at high-VPD condition was 6.49 µmol CO₂·m^-2·s^-1 in Heracleum moellendorffii Hance, which was a little lower than 5.57 µmol CO₂·m^-2·s^-1 in Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus, respectively. After 2 p.m, stomatal transpiration of Heracleum moellendorffii at the high VPD condition was rapidly decreased. The results indicated that physiological activities in Heracleum moellendorffii are more limited from high VPD conditions.

산업사회가 발전하면서 서울과 같은 대도시는 각종 산업시설 및 인구의 집중과 자동차의 증가로 인하여 대기 중 부유분진 농도가 증가하였으며, 특히 봄철에는 아시아 대륙의 건조지역과 사막, 황토 고원에서 발생하는 황사로 인해 대기 중 부유분진의 농도가 급격히 증가한다. 이러한 대기 중 부유분진은 인간의 호흡기 질환 유발, 시정악화, 일사량 감소로 인한 기후 변화, 식물의 광합성 작용의 억제 등 직ㆍ간접적으로 많은 영향을 나타내고 있다(Robert et al., 1994; Liu C. and M.H. Smith, 1995). (중략)

Windy meteorological conditions and dried fire fuels due to higher atmospheric instability and dryness in the lower troposphere can exacerbate fire controls and result in more losses of forest resources and residential properties due to enhanced large wildland fires. Long-term (1979-2005) climatology of the Haines Index reconstructed in this study reveals that spatial patterns and intra-annual variability of the atmospheric instability and dryness in the lower troposphere affect the frequency of wildland fire incidences over the Korean Peninsula. Exponential regression models verify that daily high Haines Index and its monthly frequency has statistically significant correlations with the frequency of the wildland fire occurrences during the fire season (December-April) in South Korea. According to the climatic maps of the Haines Index created by the Geographic Information System (GIS) using the Digital Elevation Model (DEM), the lowlands below 500m from the mean sea level in the northwestern regions of the Korean Peninsula demonstrates the high frequency of the Haines Index equal to or greater than five in April and May. The annual frequency of the high Haines Index represents an increasing trend across the Korean Peninsula since the mid-1990s, particularly in Gyeongsangbuk-do and along the eastern coastal areas. The composite of synoptic weather maps at 500hPa for extreme events, in which the high Haines Index lasted for several days consecutively, illustrates that the cold low pressure system developed around the Sea of Okhotsk in the extreme event period enhances the pressure gradient and westerly wind speed over the Korean Peninsula. These results demonstrate the need for further consideration of the spatial-temporal characteristics of vertical atmospheric components, such as atmospheric instability and dryness, in the current Korean fire prediction system.
