현재 태양광 산업에서는 고정식 태양광 발전장치보다 발전 효율이 우수한 추적식 태양광 발전장치를 개발하는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 추적식 태양광 발전장치는 고정식에 대비하여 단위면적당 일사량을 최대로 유지할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 일조시간을 최대로 하여 태양전지의 발전효율을 극대화할 수 있다. 따라서 정밀하면서도 저렴한 태양위치 추적장치는 태양광 발전사업의 경제성을 높이고, 성능 대비 투자비용을 낮춰 태양광 발전설비의 보급을 촉진시켜줄 수 있는 중요한 기술이다. 본 연구는 태양위치를 감지하는데 센서를 사용하지 않고 천문학과 수학을 이용하여 정밀도 1분($0.016^{\circ}$)이내의 태양위치를 계산하는 알고리즘에 관한 것이다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 알고리즘은 장치의 제작비용을 낮추어 줄 뿐 아니라, 발전효율도 높여준다. 구현된 알고리즘을 적용시킨 추적식 태양광 발전장치를 운용 실측한 결과, 최대 30초($0.0038^{\circ}$)의 오차를 보여 추적식 발전장치의 경제성을 높일 수 있고, 시간복잡도(Time Complexity)와 공간복잡도(Spatial Complexity)가 낮아 실시간 태양 추적장치에 최적임을 확인하였다.

Climatic elements were investigated in order to understand the atmospheric environment around the Pohang area and for use as basic information in prediction. In this analysis, we could find that the annual mean temperature, relative humidity, and precipitation are 14.39$^{\circ}C$, 63.3%, and 1.178mm, respectively. The prevailing wind direction was southwestern, and the mean wind speed is 2.7m/s. The amount of cloud was abundant during the summer because of the Jang-ma phenomenon and convective clouds induced by terrain effect. The annual mean duration of sunshine represented about 2,221 hours.

The effects of various weather factors on yield components of rice, year variation of yield components within regions, and regional differences of yield components within year were investigated at three Crop Experiment Stations O.R.D., Suweon, Iri, Milyang, and at nine provincial Offices of Rural Development for eight years from 1966 to 1973 for the purpose of providing information required in improving cultural practices and predicting the yield level of rice. The experimental results analyzed by standard partial regression analysis are summarized as follows: 1. When rice was grown in ordinary seasonal culture the number of panicles greatly affected rice yield compared to other yield components. However, when rice was seeded in ordinary season and transplanted late, and transplanted in ordinary season in the northern area the ratio of ripening was closely related to the rice yield. 2. The number of panicles showed the greatest year variation when the Jinheung variety was grown in the northern area. The ripening ratio or 1, 000 grain weight also greatly varied due to years. However, the number of spikelets per unit area showed the greatest effects on yield of the Tongil variety. 2. Regional variation of yield components was classified into five groups; 1) Vegetation dependable type (V), 2) Partial vegetation dependable type (P), 3) Medium type (M), 4) Partial ripening dependable type (P.R), and 5) Ripening dependable type (R). In general, the number of kernel of rice in the southern area showed the greatest partial regression coefficient among yield components. However, in the mid-northern part of country the ripening ratio was one of the component!; affecting rice yield most. 4. A multivariate equation was obtained for both normal planting and late planting by log-transforming from the multiplication of each component of four yield components to additive fashion. It revealed that a more accurate yield could be estimated from the above equation in both cases of ordinary seasonal culture and late transplanting. 5. A highly positive correlation coefficient was obtained between the number of tillers from 20 days after transplanting and the number of panicles at each(tillering) stage 20 days after transplanting in normal planting and late planting methods. 6. A close relationship was found between the number of panicles and weather factors 21 to 30 days, after transplanting. 7. The average temperature 31 to 40 days after transplanting was greatly responsible for the maximum number of tillers while the number of duration of sunshine hours per day 11 to 30 days after transplantation was responsible for that character. The effect of water temperature was negligible. 8. No reasonable prediction for number of panicles was calculated from using either number of tillers or climatic factors. The number of panicles could early be estimated formulating a multiple equation using number of tillers 20 days after transplantation and maximum temperature, temperature range and duration of sunshine for the period of 20 days from 20 to 40 days after transplantation. 9. The effects of maximum temperature and day length 25 to 34 days before heading, on kernel number per panicle, were great in the mid-northern area. However, the minimum temperature and day length greatly affected the kernel number per panicle in the southern area. The maximum temperature had a negative relationship with the kernel number per panicle in the southern area. 10. The maximum temperature was highly responsible for an increased ripening ratio. On the other hand, the minimum temperature at pre-heading and early ripening stages showed an adverse effect on ripening ratio. 11. The 1, 000 grain weight was greatly affected by the maximum temperature during pre- or mid-ripening stage and was negatively associated with the minimum temperature over the entire ripening period.

Microalgae have the advantages of being able to utilize the solar energy and culturing at a low cost. In particular, microalgae have a great potential in the production of biodiesel due to the high lipid content. Lipids produced from microalgae are converted to fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) by trans-esterification reaction and FAME is called a biodiesel in general. In addition, microalgae can also be utilized as a substrate for ethanol fermentation after saccharification reaction. In this study, three types of microalgae (Nanochloris, Dunaliella tertiolecta, Tetraselmis) were cultured and their lipid contents were compared. In addition, the effects of lighting period on the growth rate and lipid content were studied. Finally, the amounts of glucose produced from each saccharified microalgae were investigated. As a result, we demonstrated that D. tertiolecta has 43.6% higher lipid content and 22% higher glucose conversion than two others.

돌발홍수는 수십 $km^2$ 이하의 유역에서 강우가 발생한 후 6시간 이내의 단시간에 홍수징후가 나타나는 현상으로 정의될 수 있다. 돌발홍수를 잘 예측하기 위해서는 국지적으로 발생하는 집중 호우를 잘 예측해야 하며 유역내 공간적인 수문반응해석을 통해 돌발홍수를 예측하는 기술이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 유역내 공간적인 수문반응을 잘 모의하기 위해 TOPLATS 지표해석모형을 이용하였다. TOPLATS(TOPMODEL based Land Atmosphere Transfer Scheme) 모형은 물수지와 에너지수지를 통해 단위격자에 대한 실제증발산량, 토양수분량, 지하수면깊이, 지표유출량, 잠열, 현열, 지열, 순복사량 등을 모의하며 소유역단위로 지하수면깊이를 재분포시키는 특성을 가지고 있다. 돌발홍수 위험도를 산정하기 위해 실제 돌발홍수 피해사례를 조사하였으며 피해지역과 대응되는 격자 수문성분과의 상관성 분석을 통해 돌발홍수 위험도 모형을 산정하였다. 대상지역은 수도권 전체지역을 모의하기 위해 한강, 임진강, 안성천 유역을 대상지역으로 선정하였다. 수도권 지역은 약 11,930 km2이며 2009~2012년동안 총 38건의 돌발홍수 피해사례가 신고되었다. 기상자료는 기상청 AWS와 ASOS 시단위 강우, 기온, 상대습도, 풍속, 일조, 기압자료를 이용하였다. 돌발홍수 피해사례 38건에 대해 대응되는 모의격자의 수문성분을 분석하였으며 27(71%)에서 구조요청시점에 대해 강우량, 지표유출량, 토양수분량, 지하수면깊이가 적절하게 모의되는 것을 확인하였다. 강우조건에 따른 돌발홍수 위험도는 구조요청시점 기준 선행시간 4~6시간까지 71~87%, 구조요청시점으로 한정된 0시간에서는 42~52%로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로부터 지표해석모델을 이용한 격자 수문성분과 통계적 돌발홍수지수모형으로부터 산정된 돌발홍수 위험도는 산지 미계측지역에 대한 돌발홍수를 예측하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, we examine the palatability and physicochemical properties of rice in the year, when there was 10% increase in yield compared to normal year due to daily temperature range and sunshine hours. The results of the analysis of rice yield over the last 20 years (1993-2012) showed 10% difference between the yield in 2000, which was normal, and that in 2001. With regard to the crop weather condition during the ripening period in 2001 compared to 2000, the daily range and sunshine hours were higher, but the mean temperature was similar. The rice yield in 2001 was 9.8% higher than that in 2000 due to the increased number of spikelets per panicles and ratio of ripened grain. In terms of chemical traits, protein, Mg, and K contents decreased in 2001 compared to 2000, but amylose content increased. Trough and final viscosity assessed with a Rapid Visco Analyser were significantly higher in 2001 than 2000. The quality of cooked rice was measured through the Toyo Mido Meter Glossiness Value (TGV) instead of a palatability score because a sensory test produces relative comparison values rather than absolute values. The correlation coefficients between the sensory evaluation parameters and the TGV in several rice materials harvested in two years showed a highly significant positive correlation ($r=0.81^{**}-0.89^{**}$, n=27-47). TGV was also significantly higher in 2001 than in 2000. The results suggested that the palatability of cooked rice was good in 2001 with about 10% increase in rice yield compared to normal year in 2000 due to daily temperature range and sunshine hours.

The purpose of this research is to identify the significance of climate factors related to the significance of change of dry matter yield (DMY) of whole crop maize (WCM) by year through the exploratory data analysis. The data (124 varieties; n=993 in 7 provinces) was prepared after deletion and modification of the insufficient and repetitive data from the results (124 varieties; n=1027 in 7 provinces) of import adaptation experiment done by National Agricultural Cooperation Federation. WCM was classified into early-maturity (25 varieties, n=200), mid-maturity (40 varieties, n=409), late-maturity (27 varieties, n=234) and others (32 varieties, n=150) based on relative maturity and days to silking. For determining climate factors, 6 weather variables were generated using weather data. For detecting DMY and climate factors, SPSS21.0 was used for operating descriptive statistics and Shapiro-Wilk test. Mean DMY by year was classified into upper and lower groups, and a statistically significant difference in DMY was found between two groups (p<0.05). To find the reasons of significant difference between two groups, after statistics analysis of the climate variables, it was found that Seeding-Harvesting Accumulated Growing Degree Days (SHAGDD), Seeding-Harvesting Precipitation (SHP) and Seeding-Harvesting Hour of sunshine (SHH) were significantly different between two groups (p<0.05), whereas Seeding-Harvesting number of Days with Precipitation (SHDP) had no significant effects on DMY (p>0.05). These results indicate that the SHAGDD, SHP and SHH are related to DMY of WCM, but the comparison of R2 among three variables (SHAGDD, SHP and SHH) couldn't be obtained which is needed to be done by regression analysis as well as the prediction model of DMY in the future study.

Light is an important component among which plays a crucial role in determining the production and quality of fruit trees. Since the disturbance of light directly leads to reduced photosynthetic efficiency, their damage can be increased especially in fruit trees such as Japanese apricots with a short growing time. In this study, we investigated how the effects of shading condition can affect the production and quality of Japanese apricots according to increased damages by light disturbance in the main orchard complex. The average photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) level in Japanese apricots was rapidly dropped as the shading time was increased compared to the control (304 μmol/m²/s) and the PAR level decreased to 142 μmol/m²/s after shaded for eight hours. The maximum photosynthetic efficiency, with a PAR value of 900 to 1,000 μmol/m²/s, corresponds to the time period without shading and the time period with 2 hours of shading, and these times range from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. And the time period for shading for 4 hours was from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m., and under conditions of shading for 6 and 8 hours, the effect was a low amount of light. There was no difference in the weight of Japanese apricots during 2 hours shading time, however, it was significantly reduced as shading time were increased. The difference of the acid content and L/D ratio was not significant on shading time, but the SSC was decreased as times going on. In conclusion, our results indicate that the shading for more than 2 hours make negative effects to decrease the weight and SSC and the yield and affects directly to drop in fruit quality.

An analysis was made on optimal N fertilizer for high yielding and ordinary rice varieties and their dependence upon the climatic conditions during growth stage in 1971-1979. The results obtained were summarized as follows; 1. The coefficient of variation for optimum N rates were 19.1% for high yielding varieties and 21.9% for ordinary varieties. And the those of yields at optimum N levels were 7.0% for high yielding varieties and 9.9% for ordinary varieties. 2. Optimum N fertilizer rates for high yielding varieties were 22.4kg/10a in favorable climatic years and 16.1kg/10a in unfavorable climatic years. As for ordinary varieties, optimum N levels were 19.2kg/10a in favorable climatic years and 13.0kg/10a in unfavorable climatic years. Accordingly, more N should be applied in favorable climatic years regardless of varieties. 3. This difference was derived from sunshine hours, rainfall, and relative humidity. Optimum N rates were correlated positively with sunshine hours, and negatively with rainfall and relative humidity.

There was different between two differential geographical and environmental condition areas on elytra color expression patterns of the multicolored Asian lady beetles (Harmonia axyridis). Especially, it was investigated that expression rates of melanic patterns (conspicua, spectabilis and axyridis) relatively increased in overwintering populations collected in highly mean temperature and longer cumulative daylength area. In addition, in the same collection site, the seasonal difference had influenced on color patterns of H. axyridis. Although these effects didn't were not observed in the laboratory, environmental conditions such as temperature or cumulative daylength might be factors that gave an effect on color pattern formation.
