We have conducted 4 experiments to develop the most environmental and effective use of the two-fluid fog system to prevent and exterminate whiteflies in tomato cultivation. In particular, these experiments used Vitamini tomatoes grown in stand-alone greenhouses at Buyeo Tomato Experiment Station as subjects. Each experiment utilized the fog system in a different way. The first experiment provided the control group, which was subject to the two-fluid fog system without additional humidity control. In the second experiment, the two-fluid fog system controlled the humidity level to be above 70%. The third and the fourth experiment utilized natural substances, which were 1.5 mg/L of Neem Oil and 2 mg/L of Oleic acid respectively, without additional humidity control. From the first experiment, we could observe that a simple use of the two-fluid fog system decreased the density of whiteflies in the greenhouses. This impact of the fog system on whiteflies was greater in the second experiment. By comparing the first and the second experiment, we concluded that whiteflies are more effectively prevented by maintaining a higher humidity level via the fog system's smaller water droplets that float in the air for longer time than the standard fog system in rather dry condition. In the third and the fourth experiments, the extermination level was 78% and 76.4% respectively, comparing only 53% in the first experiment without the humidity control. Therefore, using the natural substances in addition to the humidity control increases the extermination effectiveness. Considering the similar results from the 3rd and the 4th experiments, Oleic acid has a greater appeal for its lower price. Using the two-fluid fog system to both control the humidity on a daily basis and spray the substances for occasional extermination would reduce labor cost and increase production in an environmental way.

Feeding habits of Leiognathus nuchalis collected from the eelgrass bed in Kwangyang Bay from January 1994 to December 1994 were studied. Leiognathus nuchalis was a carnivore which mainly consumed copepods and crab larvae. Its diets included small quantities of polychaetes, amphipods, mysids, caridean shrimps. It showed ontogenetic changes in feeding habits. In an initial feeding stage, copepods were major food organisms. However, crab larvae and polychaetes were heavily selected with increasing fish size. Although copepods and crab larvae were major prey organisms for all seasons, the relative proportion of these two food items changed with season.

Congenital intrapericardial left atrial appendage aneurysms (LAAA) are very rare. Most cases are asymptomatic and this malady is generally incidentally diagnosed in older patients. LAAAs are usually accompanied with supraventricular arrhythmias and life-threatening systemic embolism. Complete surgical correction is recommended immediately after the diagnosis to prevent significant complications, and even for the asymptomatic patients. We report here on the case of a 45-year-old man who presented with cerebral embolism due to LAAA. The patient was successfully treated with a resection of the aneurysm.

In this paper, numerical algorithms applied in two-step eulerian scheme are investigated and implemented. Element quantities are advected with donor or van Leer algorithm. Nodal quantities are advected with Simplifed ALE [SALE] algorithm. Material interfaces are determined with Simple Line Interface Calculation [SLIC] algorithm. Practical aspects considered for code development are addressed in detail. The results of developed two-step Eulerian code are verified by comparing with those from pure lagrangian scheme and commercial code.

기후변화에 따른 집중호우 및 태풍 발생의 증가로 강우레이더를 이용한 홍수예경보시스템의 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 그러나 현재 국내에서 주로 활용되고 있는 단일편파 레이더는 정확도의 한계로 인해 홍수예보 활용에 어려움을 야기해왔다. 최근에는 수직반사도, 차등반사도, 비차등반사도 등 다양한 변수 취득을 통해 강우입자의 형태를 더욱 정확하게 추정할 수 있는 이중편파 레이더의 활용이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 홍수예보 활용을 위해 이중편파 레이더 실황강우 및 예측강우의 정확도를 평가하고자 한다. 평가를 위해 비슬산 레이더 자료를 활용하였으며, 2012~2014년의 강우사상을 선정하였다. 단일 및 이중편파 레이더 강우를 각각 추정하고, 강우예측을 위해 추정된 레이더 강우를 이류모델(Translation model)에 연계하여 선행 6시간까지의 예측강우를 생산하였다. 강우의 탐지능력 평가를 위해 Hit rate를 이용하였으며, 레이더 관측반경 증가 및 강우강도의 증가에 따른 정확도 분석을 수행하였다. 강수추정 정확도 평가를 위해 상관계수와 평균제곱근 오차를 이용하였으며, 비슬산 강우레이더 100 km 반경 내에 속한 국토교통부 관할의 지상관측강우와비교하였다. 그 결과, 이중편파 레이더 실황강우가 단일편파 레이더에 비해 지상관측강우의 거동과 더욱 유사하게 나타났으며, 양적인 오차도 더 적은 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, 레이더 예측강우는 선행시간이 증가함에 따라 정확도가 감소하였으나, 선행시간 1시간까지는 활용이 가능하다고 판단된다.

This study examined the habitat distribution characteristics of Aquatic Oligochaeta according to the construction of weirs in the four major rivers in South Korea. The area was investigated 10 times from March to October in 2018 and a total of 18 species and 35,390 ind. m^-2 were sampled. The dominant species by number was Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri(77.1%) and the subdominant species was Branchiura sowerbyi(9.5%). A total of 32.418 g m^-2 dry weight was analyzed. The correlation analysis showed that the number of Aquatic Oligochaeta individuals correlated with the sediment depth, clay ratio, silt ratio, sand ratio, cobble ratio, pebble ratio, pH and TOC mg L^-1. Specifically, the clay ratio and sediment depth were associated with increases in the number of individuals. The total organic carbon(TOC) increased from March to October and, conversely, the number of individuals tended to decrease.

The frequency and size of typhoon and local severe rainfall are increasing due to the climate change and the damage also increasing from typhoon and severe rainfall. The flood forecasting and warning system to reduce the damage from typhoon and severe rainfall needs forecasted rainfall using radar data and short-term rainfall forecasting model. For this reason, this study examined the applicability of short-term rainfall forecast using translation model with weather radar data to point out that the utilization of flood forecasting in Korea. This study estimated the radar rainfall using Least-square fitting method and estimated rainfall was used as initial field of translation model. The translation model have verified accuracy of forecasted radar rainfall through the comparison of forecasted radar rainfall and observed rainfall quantitatively and qualitatively. Almost case studies showed that accuracy is over 0.6 within 4 hours leading time and mean of correlation coefficient is over 0.5 within 1 hours leading time in Kwanak and Jindo radar site. And, as the increasing the leading time, the forecast accuracy of precipitation decreased. The results of the calculated Mean Area Precipitation (MAP) showed forecast rainfall tend to be underestimated than observed rainfall but the correlation coefficient more than 0.5. Therefore it showed that translation model could be accurately predicted the rainfall relatively. The present results indicate that possibility of translation model application of Korea just within 2 hours leading forecasted rainfall.
