우리나라는 여름철 집중호우 시 발생하는 홍수로 인해 중소하천의 확폭(Widening) 및 하안침식이 자주 발생하고 있으나, 이에 대해 홍수 피해 관점으로만 분석되고 있으며 체계적인 수리학적, 지형학적 분석은 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 먼저, 1982-2022년의 지도 및 항공사진, 정사영상 등을 분석하여 포항시 신광천과 냉천 중류의 하도 변화를 살펴보고, 2022년 9월 태풍 힌남노의 내습 시 발생한 홍수로 인해 초래된 하도 변화를 분석하였다. 신광천 항사리 지점의 경우, 하천 우안에 제방이 축조되지 않았던 1982년에는 하폭이 상대적으로 넓었으나, 1992년 제방 축조 이후 우안 충적지가 하도에서 분리되며 하폭이 감소하였다. 2011년의 하도는 대부분의 면적이 식생으로 덮여 하천의 흐름이 잘 관찰되지 않으나, 2021년에 식생 제거로 하도가 식별되지만 하폭은 과거에 비해 더욱 감소하였다. 태풍 힌남노 내습 시 포항시의 6시간 누적 강우량은 315.3 mm 로 100년 빈도를 초과하는 집중호우가 발생하였으며, 그 결과 확폭이 발생하였다. 단면에서 보면 좌안 활주사면은 5 m 가량의 퇴적고를 보였고, 우안 공격사면은 평균 23.3 m 측방으로 침식되었다. 그 결과 1982년 하폭과 유사한 수준으로 확대되었다. 문덕리 지점(공장지대)과 냉천 용산리(아파트)의 경우에도 각각 평균 14 m, 18 m 의 하안침식을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 지난 30여 년 전 축조된 기존 제방이 유실되면서 발생한 것으로 홍수로 인해 과거의 하폭으로 복귀할 수 있음을 의미한다. 2022년 홍수에 의한 하도 변화와 같은 지형학적 변화를 고려할 때, 보다 안정적인 하천관리를 위해서는 하천 설계 시 과거 지도상의 하도 범위 및 기왕홍수로 인한 하안선 변동을 고려하는 것이 필요하다.

This study analyzed morphological changes in the Singwangcheon and Naengcheon streams in Pohang caused by flooding due to Typhoon Hinnamnor. Analysis of the changes in river channel area from the past to recent times using aerial photos and drone-taken images showed that the river width had gradually decreased since the 1960s. However, after the flood, the river width increased again. Changes in the river cross-section before and after the flood show that a large amount of coarse sediment was deposited inside the river bend while the outer bank was eroded. The water levels calculated using HEC-RAS for the pre-flood cross-section based on the flood frequency discharges and estimated discharge from Oer Reservoir were significantly lower than the observed water level, which means that the cross-sectional change was not considered. The results of this study suggest that it is necessary to consider cross-sectional changes due to sediment transport when estimating the flood level of small and medium-sized mountain streams, and it is needed to investigate the geomorphic changes after floods.

ZnO shows the properties of wide conductivity variation, high optical transmittance, and excellent piezoelectricity. Using these properties of ZnO, the material applications were extended to sensors, SAW filters, solar cells, and display devices. This paper investigated transmittance influencing factors for thin film ZnO grown by RF magnetron sputtering. The growth rate and structural investigation were carried out in conjunction with optical transmittance characteristics of thin film ZnO. The glass substrate temperature of $175^{\circ}C$ exhibited a preferential crystallization along (002) orientation. Transmittance of ZnO film deposited at the substrate temperature of $175^{\circ}C$ showed higher than 92%. An active sputter gas was investigated with a variation of $O_2$ partial pressure from 0 to 10% in an Ar atmosphere. ZnO film grown in 100% Ar gas shows that a reduced transmittance of 82% at the short wavelengths and decreased resistivity value. As the partial pressure of $O_2$ gas increased, the optical transmittance was increased above 90% at the short wavelengths, however, resistivity was drastically increased to higher than $10^4{\Omega}$-cm.

As the data volumes and complexity rapidly increase, data-intensive science handling large-scale scientific data needs to investigate new techniques for intelligent storage and data distribution over networks. Recently, Named Data Networking (NDN) and data-intensive science communities have inspired innovative changes in distribution and management for large-scale experimental data. In this article, analysis on NDN testbeds for large-scale scientific data such as climate science data and High Energy Physics (HEP) data is presented. This article is the first attempt to analyze existing NDN testbeds for large-scale scientific data. NDN testbeds for large-scale scientific data are described and discussed in terms of status, NDN-based application, and features, which are NDN testbed instance for climate science, NDN testbed instance for both climate science and HEP, and the NDN testbed in SANDIE project. Finally various issues to prevent pitfalls in NDN testbed establishment for large-scale scientific data are analyzed and discussed, which are drawn from the descriptions of NDN testbeds and features on them.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to verify renal inflammation following Kawasaki disease (KD) using single photon emission computed tomography along with Technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid scintigraphy (DMSA renal SPECT). Methods: From March 2011 to October 2011, 15 patients diagnosed with KD at the National Health Insurance System Ilsan Hospital were enrolled in the study. All patients underwent DMSA renal SPECT to evaluate renal involvement during the acute phase of KD. Urine ${\beta}2$-microglobulin (${\beta}2$-MG), a marker of renal proximal tubular dysfunction, was also measured to assess renal damage. Results: All 15 patients had normal renal function test results. However, microscopic hematuria and pyuria were observed in 13% and 33% of the patients, respectively. Moreover, urine ${\beta}2$-MG was elevated in 46% of the patients. In addition, patients were divided into two groups based on ${\beta}2$-MG level: those with an increased ${\beta}2$-MG level, and those with a normal ${\beta}2$-MG level. No significant differences were found between these two groups in clinical characteristics, laboratory, sonography, and echocardiography findings. All patients' DMSA renal SPECT scans were normal. Conclusion: Our study showed that mild abnormalities in the urinalysis and elevated urine ${\beta}2$-MG were the only findings of renal involvement in KD. However, no aggressive renal manifestations were detected on DMSA renal SPECT.

Current distribution of Korean Cottus pollux was investigated by conducting field surveys and environmental DNA analysis in September to November 2022 and March to May 2023. As a result of the field survey, the presence of C. pollux was confirmed in the uppermost stream of Hyeongsangang River, as well as in Deokdongcheon, Jeolgolcheon, and Hoamcheon Streams. The main habitat of C. pollux was the riffle area in the upper reaches of streams with clean water and boulder-cobble bottoms. As a result of environmental DNA analysis, the samples determined to be positive included all streams in which the presence of C. pollux was confirmed in the field survey. In addition, Namcheon and Singwangcheon Streams were determined to be positive, indicating potential as its habitats. Since C. pollux has a narrow distribution area and a small population size, continuous monitoring and conservation measures are required to immediately respond to damage caused by typhoons and river works, which are the main causes of habitat disturbance, in order to maintain a stable population.

Small and medium-sized mountain rivers that flow through steep, confined valleys carry large amounts of coarse-grained sediment and woody debris during floods. It causes an increase in flood water level by aggrading the riverbed and the cross-section blockage due to driftwood accumulation during flooding. However, the existing flood level calculation in the river basic plan does not consider these changes. In this study, using the Typhoon Hinnamnor flood in September 2022 as an example, we performed numerical simulations using the HEC-RAS model, taking into account the blockage of a cross-section at the bridge and changes in riverbed elevation that occurred during floods, and analyzed the flood level to predict flood risk. This study's results show that flooding occurs if more than 30% of the cross-section is blocked. The rise of flood water levels corresponds to that of the riverbed due to sediment deposition. These results can be used as basic data to prevent and effectively manage flood damage and contribute to establishing flood defense measures that consider actual phenomena.
