NRCS-CN 방법은 총 강우량으로부터 유출량을 계산하는 방법으로, 국내에서는 설계홍수량 산정 시 NRCS-CN 방법의 사용을 권장하고 있다. CN값은 토지이용 및 피복, 토양특성, 수문학적 조건(AMC)에 따른 함수로 결정할 수 있으나, 보통의 경우 미국의 National Engineering Handbook (NEH-4)에서 제시한 표를 활용한다. 그러나, 우리나라의 토지피복 및 토지이용 현황은 미국과 다르기 때문에 현실 조건을 반영한 조정이 필요함에도 불구하고, 충분한 관측 자료가 확보되지 않아 이러한 조정이 어려운 실정이다. NRCS-CN 방법에서는 결과 값이 총 강수량보다 CN에 크게 의존적이기 때문에 부정확한 CN 값의 산정은 큰 오차를 야기할 수 있다. 또한 소유역에서는 초기손실량이 설계홍수량 산정에 큰 영향을 미치지만 우리나라는 초기손실률을 20%의 고정된 값을 일괄적으로 적용하고 있으며, 이는 제주도와 같은 특수한 투수성 지층에서는 적합하지 않다는 지적을 받아왔다. 여러 선행연구에서 강수량과 CN 사이에는 특정 관계식이 존재하며, 고정된 CN 값이 아닌 강수량에 따라 변화하는 값을 적용하는 것이 기존의 NRCS-CN 방법보다 더 정확한 결과를 나타낸다는 것이 확인된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 NRCS-CN 방법의 CN 값과 초기손실률을 유역에 적합하게 개선하기 위해서 기존의 NRCS-CN 모형에 점근 유출곡선지수방법(Asymptotic CN Regression Method)을 통해 산정된 CN값과 각기 다른 초기손실률(0.01, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.40)을 적용하여 개선된 총 8개의 모형을 한강 권역 소유역에 적용하였다. RMSE, MAE 및 R-square 등의 지표를 이용하여 모형 검정을 수행하였으며, 최적의 모형 및 미개변수를 선정하였다. 그 결과 기존의 NRCS-CN 방법보다 점근 유출곡선지수방법을 적용했을 때 더 작은 오차를 나타내는 것을 확인하였으며, 대부분의 유역에서 0.01 또는 0.05 등 기존보다 더 작은 초기손실률을 채택 시 실측값과 가장 적은 오차를 나타냈다.

The GloSea5 (Global Seasonal forecasting system version 5) is provided and operated by the KMA (Korea Meteorological Administration). GloSea5 provides Forecast (FCST) and Hindcast (HCST) data and its horizontal resolution is about 60km ($0.83^{\circ}{\times}0.56^{\circ}$) in the mid-latitudes. In order to use this data in watershed-scale water management, GloSea5 needs spatial-temporal downscaling. As such, statistical downscaling was used to correct for systematic biases of variables and to improve data reliability. HCST data is provided in ensemble format, and the highest statistical correlation ($R^2=0.60$, RMSE = 88.92, NSE = 0.57) of ensemble precipitation was reported for the Yongdam Dam watershed on the #6 grid. Additionally, the original GloSea5 (600.1 mm) showed the greatest difference (-26.5%) compared to observations (816.1 mm) during the summer flood season. However, downscaled GloSea5 was shown to have only a -3.1% error rate. Most of the underestimated results corresponded to precipitation levels during the flood season and the downscaled GloSea5 showed important results of restoration in precipitation levels. Per the analysis results of spatial autocorrelation using seasonal Moran's I, the spatial distribution was shown to be statistically significant. These results can improve the uncertainty of original GloSea5 and substantiate its spatial-temporal accuracy and validity. The spatial-temporal reproducibility assessment will play a very important role as basic data for watershed-scale water management.

In Bone Mineral Density(BMD) measurements, accuracy and precision must be superior in order to know the small changes in bone mineral density and actual biological changes. Therefore the purpose of this study is to increase the reliability of bone mineral density inspection through appropriate management of image quality from machines and inspectors. For the machine management method, the recommended phantom from each bone mineral density machine manufacturer was used to take 10~25 measurements to determine the standard amount and permitted limit. On each inspection day, measurements were taken everyday or at least three times per week to verify the whether or not change existed in the amount of actual bone mineral density. Also evaluations following Shewhart control chart and CUSUM control chart rules were made for the bone mineral density figures from the phantoms used for measurements. Various forms of management became necessary for machine installation and movement. For the management methods of inspectors, evaluation of the measurement precision was conducted by testing the reproducibility of the exact same figures without any real biological changes occurring during reinspection. There were two measurement methods followed: patients were either measured twice with 30 measurements or three times with 15 measurements. An important point to make regarding measurements is that after the first inspection and any other inspection following, the patient was required to come off the inspection table completely and then get back on for any further measurements. With a 95% confidence level, the precision error produced from the measurement bone mineral figures produced a precision error of 2.77 times the minimum of the biological bone mineral density change (Least significant change: LSC). In order to assure reliability in inspection, there needs to be good oversight of machine management and measurer for machine operation and inspection error. Accuracy error in machines needs to be reduced to under 1% for scientific development in bone mineral density machines.

The gravity data collected and reserved in Korea is seriously biased in its distribution. That is, only the west-southern part of the peninsula including Chungcheong and Jeonla area has dense distribution while only a part is covered in Gyoungsang area. Especially, the low density of the gravity data in mountainous area basically limits the accuracy of the gravimetric geoid in Korea. As one of the solution to overcome the problem, an airborne gravity survey were conducted from Dec. 2008 $\sim$ Jan. 2009. In this study, free-air gravity anomaly derived from the airborne gravity data which has consistent quality are presented. The data processing for the airborne gravity is composed of several corrections of errors such as errors from gravity measurement, errors from flight dynamics, errors from GPS, and errors from time synchronization. We presented detailed explanations on the data processing with the final cross-over results. The free-air anomaly from airborne gravity finally shows the cross-over accuracy of 2.21mGal which reflects the precision of each track is 1.56mGal. It is expected that the result from this study will play a role as input data in precision geoid determination with ground and ship-borne gravity data after appropriate fusion process.

In ocean color remote sensing, atmospheric correction is a vital process for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of ocean color products. Furthermore, in recent years, the remote sensing community has intensified its requirements for understanding errors in satellite data. Accordingly, research is currently addressing errors in remote sensing reflectance (R_rs) resulting from inaccuracies in meteorological variables (total ozone, pressure, wind field, and total precipitable water) used as auxiliary data for atmospheric correction. However, there has been no investigation into the error in R_rs caused by the variability of the water vapor profile, despite it being a recognized error source. In this study, we used the Second Simulation of a Satellite Signal Vector version 2.1 simulation to compute errors in water vapor transmittance arising from variations in the water vapor profile within the GOCI-II observation area. Subsequently, we conducted an analysis of the associated errors in ocean color products. The observed water vapor profile not only exhibited a complex shape but also showed significant variations near the surface, leading to differences of up to 0.007 compared to the US standard 62 water vapor profile used in the GOCI-II atmospheric correction. The resulting variation in water vapor transmittance led to a difference in aerosol reflectance estimation, consequently introducing errors in R_rs across all GOCI-II bands. However, the error of R_rs in the 412-555 nm due to the difference in the water vapor profile band was found to be below 2%, which is lower than the required accuracy. Also, similar errors were shown in other ocean color products such as chlorophyll-a concentration, colored dissolved organic matter, and total suspended matter concentration. The results of this study indicate that the variability in water vapor profiles has minimal impact on the accuracy of atmospheric correction and ocean color products. Therefore, improving the accuracy of the input data related to the water vapor column concentration is even more critical for enhancing the accuracy of ocean color products in terms of water vapor absorption correction.

In this study, a computed tide of a real tide was introduced to improve the numerical solutions for tides and tidal flow simulations. The real tide was defined considering the nodal modulation amplitude, phase correction factor, astronomical argument, and tidal harmonic constants of all the constituents. The numerical simulation was performed using the real tide parameters for the west-south coastal waters of Korea, where the observation data for tides, tidal currents, waves, and winds over two seasons exist. The tidal flow simulation of the real tide was simulated successfully. The correlation coefficient between the observed and calculated values was 1.0, which indicated both accurate amplitude and phase. The U- and V-components of the tidal current obtained for the real tide had average valid correlations of 0.83 and 0.936, respectively. The speed error for the residual current was 0.006 m/s on the average, which indicated an insignificant difference, and the directional behavior of the residual current was very similar. In addition, the velocity error was attributed to various weather effects, such as high waves and wind storms. Therefore, this model is expected to improve current solutions provided that weathering forces, such as waves and winds, are considered.

To obtain the gravity data with consistent quality and good distribution over Korea, to overcome the difficulties in constructing precision geoid from biased distribution of ground data, to resolve the discrepancy between the ground and ocean gravity data, an airborne gravity survey was conducted from Dec. 2008 to Jan. 2009. The data was measured at the average flying height of 3,000m and the data with cross-over error of 2.21mGal is obtained. The geoid constructed using this airborne gravity data shows the range of 9.34 $\sim$ 33.88m. Comparing the geoid with respect to the GPS/levelling data, a precision of 0.145m is obtained. After fitting, the degree of fit to GPS/levelling data was calculated about 5cm. It was found that there exists large biases in the area of south-western and northern part of the peninsular which is considered to be the effect of distorted vertical datum in Korea. Thus, more investigation on vertical datum would be needed in near future.

Satellite-derived ocean color products are required to effectively monitor clear open ocean and coastal water regions for various research fields. For this purpose, accurate correction of atmospheric effect is essential. Currently, the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI)-II ground segment uses the reanalysis of meteorological fields such as European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) or National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) to correct gas absorption by water vapor and ozone. In this process, uncertainties may occur due to the low spatiotemporal resolution of the meteorological data. In this study, we develop water vapor absorption correction model for the GK-2 combined GOCI-II atmospheric correction using Advanced Meteorological Imager (AMI) total precipitable water (TPW) information through radiative transfer model simulations. Also, we investigate the impact of the developed model on GOCI products. Overall, the errors with and without water vapor absorption correction in the top-of-atmosphere (TOA) reflectance at 620 nm and 680 nm are only 1.3% and 0.27%, indicating that there is no significant effect by the water vapor absorption model. However, the GK-2A combined water vapor absorption model has the large impacts at the 709 nm channel, as revealing error of 6 to 15% depending on the solar zenith angle and the TPW. We also found more significant impacts of the GK-2 combined water vapor absorption model on Rayleigh-corrected reflectance at all GOCI-II spectral bands. The errors generated from the TOA reflectance is greatly amplified, showing a large error of 1.46~4.98, 7.53~19.53, 0.25~0.64, 14.74~40.5, 8.2~18.56, 5.7~11.9% for from 620 nm to 865 nm, repectively, depending on the SZA. This study emphasizes the water vapor correction model can affect the accuracy and stability of ocean color products, and implies that the accuracy of GOCI-II ocean color products can be improved through fusion with GK-2A/AMI.

TERCOM(TERrain COntour Matching), which is the one of the Terrain Referenced Navigation and used in the cruise missile navigation system, is still under development. In this study, the TERCOM based on area-based matching algorithm and extended Kalman filter is analysed through simulation. In area-based matching, the mean square difference (MSD) and cross-correlation matching algorithms are applied. The simulation supposes that the barometric altimeter, radar altimeter and SRTM DTM loaded on board. Also, it navigates along the square track for 545 seconds with the velocity of 1000km per hour. The MSD and cross-correlation matching algorithms show the standard deviation of position error of 99.6m and 34.3m, respectively. The correlation matching algorithm is appeared to be less sensitive than the MSD algorithm to the topographic undulation and the position accuracy of the both algorithms is extremely depends on the terrain. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an algorithm that is more sensitive to less terrain undulation for reliable terrain referenced navigation. Furthermore, studies on the determination of proper matching window size in long-term flight and the determination of the best terrain database resolution needed by the flight velocity and area should be conducted.

In general, the pH measurement follows calibration of glass electrode system using pH standard solution. When pH is measured at constant temperature, uncertainty factors are mainly related to the accuracy of pH standard solution and the accuracy and precision of glass electrode. Participants in this proficiency test were the volunteers trying to know the distribution of the measured pH values for the same sample and the sources of error through 1998 and 1999. The samples for proficiency test are phosphate salt standard solutions specially prepared in KRISS, of which pH values were 6.860, 7.415(at $25^{\circ}C$), and the stability test was performed for the same periods of proficiency test. The results of the proficiency test were plotted according to Youden plot, which shows whether the error is random or systematic. The results of Youden plot showed that the source of error was from the systematic effect of laboratories in each year. This shows that the source of error is the standard solutions used in laboratories.
