Recently, floating green algae (FGA) in open oceans and coastal waters have been reported over wide area, yet accurate detection of these using traditional ground based measurement and chemical analysis in the laboratory has been difficult or even impossible due to the lack of spatial resolution, coverage, and revisit frequency. In contrast, spectral reflectance measurement makes it possible to quickly assess the chlorophyll content in green algae. Our objectives are to investigate the spectral reflectance of the FGA observed in the Yellow Sea and to develop a new index to detect FGA from satellite imagery, namely floating green algae index (FGAI), which uses relatively simple reflectance ratio technique. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) satellite images at 500m spatial resolution were utilized to produce FGAI which is defined as the ratio between reflectance at 860nm and 660nm bands. Both FGAI results yielded reasonable green algae detection at the regional scale distribution. Especially houly GOCI observations can present more detaield information of FGAI than low-orbit satellite.

There have been a few attempts to measure diffuse line emission between 900 $\AA$ and 1200 $\AA$, and only in a limited number of sight lines has it been detected. The main contributions to the equilibrium radiative cooling curve between $10^{4.5}K\;to\;10^6K$ are from the doublet of Ovi ${lambda}{lambda}1032;and;{lambda}{lambda}1038$ in the FUV spectral region. There are several bright airglow lines which could interfere with attempts to observe the OVI lines. The nearest lines HI 1025 $\AA$, OI 1027 $\AA$ have a combined intensity of about $10^{5.5}$ photons/s/$cm^2$/sr. In the present study, the detectability simulation of OVI doublet is performed using a Monte-Carlo technique and chi-square statistics. The analysis results are compared with the previous observations and with the predictions of several interstellar medium models, and are used to limit manufacturing and alignment errors of FIMS optical system.

We investigated the effect of spectral fitting wavelength interval variations and selection of absorption cross-section on the sulfur dioxide slant column density (SCD) retrievals from the scattered sunlight observation using a UV-Vis hyperspectral instrument. The sulfur dioxide slant column densities were retrieved from the combinations of multiple spectral fitting intervals and absorption cross-sections. The observation was carried out at the site 0.53 km away from a combustion site located in Gimhae from December 1, 2023, to January 23, 2024. The radiances were obtained on the line of measurement sight toward the stack of the combustion facility. The best spectral fitting intervals were found to be from 305.7 to 321.1 nm. In terms of the absorption cross-section dependency, the SO₂ (293 K), O₃ (223 K, 243 K) show the best spectral fitting for the observed radiances with both the smallest fitting residual and SCD error. The effects of the fitting interval and cross sections found in this study can be useful information for improving SO₂ retrievals based on UV hyperspectral measurements.

Coastal monitoring using multiple platforms/sensors is a very important tools for accurately understanding the changes in offshore marine environment and disaster with high temporal and spatial resolutions. However, integrated observation studies using multiple platforms and sensors are insufficient, and none of them have been evaluated for efficiency and limitation of convergence. In this study, we aimed to suggest an integrated observation method with multi-remote sensing platform and sensors, and to diagnose the utility and limitation. Integrated in situ surveys were conducted using Rhodamine WT fluorescent dye to simulate various marine disasters. In September 2019, the distribution and movement of RWT dye patches were detected using satellite (Kompsat-2/3/3A, Landsat-8 OLI, Sentinel-3 OLCI and GOCI), unmanned aircraft (Mavic 2 pro and Inspire 2), and manned aircraft platforms after injecting fluorescent dye into the waters of the South Sea-Yeosu Sea. The initial patch size of the RWT dye was 2,600 ㎡ and spread to 62,000 ㎡ about 138 minutes later. The RWT patches gradually moved southwestward from the point where they were first released,similar to the pattern of tidal current flowing southwest as the tides gradually decreased. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) image showed highest resolution in terms of spatial and time resolution, but the coverage area was the narrowest. In the case of satellite images, the coverage area was wide, but there were some limitations compared to other platforms in terms of operability due to the long cycle of revisiting. For Sentinel-3 OLCI and GOCI, the spectral resolution and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) were the highest, but small fluorescent dye detection was limited in terms of spatial resolution. In the case of hyperspectral sensor mounted on manned aircraft, the spectral resolution was the highest, but this was also somewhat limited in terms of operability. From this simulation approach, multi-platform integrated observation was able to confirm that time,space and spectral resolution could be significantly improved. In the future, if this study results are linked to coastal numerical models, it will be possible to predict the transport and diffusion of contaminants, and it is expected that it can contribute to improving model accuracy by using them as input and verification data of the numerical models.

When considering the long-term safety assessment of spent-nuclear fuel management, americium is one of the most radio-toxic actinides. Although spectroscopic methods are widely used for the study of actinide chemistry, application of those methods to americium chemistry has been limited. Herein, we purified $^{241}Am$ to obtain a highly pure stock solution required for spectroscopic studies. Quantitative and qualitative analyses of purified $^{241}Am$ were carried out using liquid scintillation counting, and gamma and alpha radiation spectrometry. Highly sensitive absorption spectrometry coupled with a liquid waveguide capillary cell and time-resolved laser fluorescence spectroscopy were employed for the study of Am(III) hydrolysis and oxalate (Ox) complexation. $Am^{3+}$ ions under acidic conditions exhibit maximum absorbance at 503 nm, with a molar absorption coefficient of $424{\pm}8cm^{-1}{\cdot}M^{-1}$. $Am(OH)_3(s)$ colloidal particles formed under near neutral pH conditions were identified by monitoring the absorbance at around 506-507 nm. The formation of ${Am(Ox)_3}^{3-}$ was detected by red-shifts of the absorption and luminescence spectra of 4 and 5 nm, respectively. In addition, considerable enhancements of the luminescence intensities were observed. The luminescence lifetime of ${Am(Ox)_3}^{3-}$ increased from 23 to 56 ns, which indicates that approximately six water molecules are replaced by carboxylate ligands in the inner-sphere of the Am(III). These results suggest that ${Am(Ox)_3}^{3-}$ is formed through the bidentate coordination of the oxalate ligands.

The spectral changes of 3,3'-diethyl oxacarbocyanine(DOC) in the aqueous solution and in the presence of polyacrylic acid(PAA) were studied by means of absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. The spectral change of DOC in the aqueous solution with concentration changes is attributed to the formation of dimer. In the presence of PAA, the characteristic changes of metachromatic band with changes of P/D (the ratio between available binding site and the dye concentration) are found and the discussions are made in terms of stacking theory. A kinetic study of the interaction between DOC and PAA was also investigated by the absorption and fluorescence stopped-flow spectroscopy. The observed relaxation effect in PAA-DOC system can be described quantitatively by assuming two relaxation processes occur.

최근 그래핀 연구와 더불어 2차원 구조의 나노소재에 대한 관심이 급증하면서 육각형의 질화붕소(hexagonal boron nitride; h-BN) 박막(nanosheet) [1]이나 붕소 탄화질화물(boron caronitride; BCN) 박막 [2,3]과 같은 2차원 구조체에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중 BCN은 반금속(semimetal)인 흑연(graphite)과 절연체인 h-BN이 결합된 박막으로 원소의 구성 비율에 따라 전기적 특성을 제어할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 따라서 다양한 나노소자로의 응용을 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 폴리스틸렌(polystyrene, PS)과 보레인 암모니아(borane ammonia)를 고체 소스로 이용하여 열화학기상증착법으로 BCN 박막을 SiO2 기판 위에 직접 합성하였다. SEM과 AFM 관측을 통해 합성된 BCN 박막의 두께가 약 10 nm이며, RMS roughness가 0.5~2.6 nm로 매우 낮은 것을 확인하였다. 합성과정에서 PS의 양을 조절하여 BCN 박막의 탄소의 밀도를 성공적으로 제어하였으며, 이에 따라 전기적인 특성이 제어되는 양상을 확인하였다. 또한 합성온도 변화에 따른 BCN 박막의 전기적인 특성이 제어되는 양상을 확인하였다. 추가적으로 같은 방법을 이용하여 BCN 박막을 Cu 위에서 합성하여 SiO2 기판위에 전사하였다. 합성된 BCN 박막의 구조적 특징과 화학적 조성 및 결합 상태를 투과전자현미경(transmission electron microscopy), X-선 광전자 분광법(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), 라만 분광법(Raman spectroscopy)을 통해 조사하였고, 이온성 용액법(ionic liquid) [4]을 이용하여 전계효과 특성을 측정하였다.

We have observed the saturated absorption spectrum of the P(16) line of the V$_1$＋V$_3$ band of $^{13}$ C$_2$H$_2$ molecule by using the external cavity spectroscopy method. The frequency of laser has been stabilized to the saturated absorption spectrum. The relative contrast of the saturation spectrum is about 7 % with respect to the linear absorption and the linewidth is about 1.8 MHz. The frequency fluctuation of the stabilized LD is about $\pm$20 KHz during the sampling time 100 S.

By using the spray pyrolysis method, zinc oxide(ZnO) was produced from zinc acetate, the surface morphology of the prepared films was investigated by using scanning electron microscopy. The thickness of ZnO thin film was increased up to 460$^{\circ}C$ and it was 833 nm. The maximum wavelength of absorption was obtained at 365 nm, and the maximum peak of fluorescence at 475 nm and 505 nm. ZnO film have been characterized by XPS, XRD, and SEM. XRD results show that all the films are preferred orientation along the (002) plane which is depend on the substrate temperature. The optimal temperature to produce ZnO was determined at around 460$^{\circ}C$ from measurements of XPS, XRD and photocurrent. It was also shown that the homogeneous particles had the higher photocurrent.
