An artificial disturbance like fragmentation in watershed forest has impacted a sustainability of watershed ecosystem, therefore this research quantified the landscape structure in the Geumho river watershed using landscape indices and GIS. Landscape indices were calculated from the forest distributed maps for 24 subwatersheds. Three common factors, which explained about 85% of the variation in the original data, were extracted by a factor analysis. The fragmentation gradient in forest landscape, which was calculated from the factor scores, was correlated with proportion of urban land (r=0.827, p<0.01, $R^2$=0.685), elevation (r=-0.637, p<0.01) and slope gradient (r=-0.593, p<0.01). The result of the study presented that the methodology and the values of landscape indices to assess the structural patterns of forest landscape for the Geumho river watershed management. Future research will be directed towards the detection of impacts of landscape patterns and their changes on the integrity of watershed environments.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) imagery are being assessed for analyzing within field spatial variability for agricultural precision management, because UAV imagery may be acquired quickly during critical periods of rapid crop growth. This study refers to the derivation of barley and wheat growth prediction equation by using UAV derived vegetation index. UAV imagery was taken on the test plots six times from late February to late June during the barley and wheat growing season. The field spectral reflectance during growing period for the 5 variety (Keunal-bori, Huinchalssal-bori, Saechalssal-bori, Keumkang and Jopum) were measured using ground spectroradiometer and three growth parameters, including plant height, shoot dry weight and number of tiller were investigated for each ground survey. Among the 6 Vegetation Indices (VI), the RVI, NDVI, NGRDI and GLI between measured and image derived showed high relationship with the coefficient of determination respectively. Using the field investigation data, the vegetation indices regression curves were derived, and the growth parameters were tried to compare with the VIs value.

Evapotranspiration, one of the hydrometeorological components, is considered an important variable for water resource planning and management and is primarily used as input data for hydrological models such as water balance models. The FAO56 PM method has been recommended as a standard approach to estimate the reference evapotranspiration with relatively high accuracy. However, the FAO56 PM method is often challenging to apply because it requires considerable hydrometeorological variables. In this perspective, the Hargreaves equation has been widely adopted to estimate the reference evapotranspiration. In this study, a set of parameters of the Hargreaves equation was calibrated with relatively long-term data within a Bayesian framework. Statistical index (CC, RMSE, IoA) is used to validate the model. RMSE for monthly results reduced from 7.94 ~ 24.91 mm/month to 7.94 ~ 24.91 mm/month for the validation period. The results confirmed that the accuracy was significantly improved compared to the existing Hargreaves equation. Further, the evaporative demand drought index (EDDI) based on the evaporative demand (E₀) was proposed. To confirm the effectiveness of the EDDI, this study evaluated the estimated EDDI for the recent drought events from 2014 to 2015 and 2018, along with precipitation and SPI. As a result of the evaluation of the Han-river watershed in 2018, the weekly EDDI increased to more than 2 and it was confirmed that EDDI more effectively detects the onset of drought caused by heatwaves. EDDI can be used as a drought index, particularly for heatwave-driven flash drought monitoring and along with SPI.

In general, a number of studies have been conducted on factors affecting breast cancer development, but systematic investigations of risk factors are rare. The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors involved in breast cancer screening before breast ultrasound diagnosis and the risk factors associated with breast cancer screening by ultrasound. Self-administered questionnaire was performed on 417 patients who underwent breast ultrasonography and classified as benign and malignant. Breast cancer was associated with age, BMI, and type of medication(p<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the odds ratio was 4.93 times higher in the 50s compared to the less than 50s, 2.43 times higher in the obese group than in the normal group, 0.14 times and 0.16 times lower in hormonal replacement therapy(p<0.05). Therefore, as age increases, periodical examination of health and appropriate weight management are needed. So this study is expected to provide basic data for identification of risk factors affecting breast cancer development.

TSI (TPI-Slope Index) which is the combination of TPI (Topographic Position Index) and slope was newly proposed for landslide and applied to a landslide susceptibility model. To do this, we first compared the TPIs with various scale factors and found that TPI350 was the best fit for the study area. TPI350 was combined with slope to create TSI. TSI was evaluated using logistic regression. The evaluation showed that TSI can be used as a landslide factor. Then a logistic regression model was developed to assess the landslide susceptibility by adding other topographic factors, geological factors, and forestial factors. For this, landslide-related factors that can be extracted from DEM (Digital Elevation Model), soil map, and forest type map were collected. We checked these factors and excluded those that were highly correlated with other factors or not significant. After these processes, 8 factors of TSI, elevation, slope length, slope aspect, effective soil depth, tree age, tree density, and tree type were selected to be entered into the regression analysis as independent variables. Three models through three variable selection methods of forward selection, backward elimination, and enter method were built and evaluated. Selected variables in the three models were slightly different, but in common, effective soil depth, tree density, and TSI was most significant.

다양한 연구 분야에서 강수량, 온도, 습도, 일조량은 연구에 필요한 기후 인자로써 사용되어져 왔다. 외국의 경우 기후 인자들과의 관계를 도출해 내는 연구가 이루어 졌지만 국내의 경우는 이러한 연구가 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 인자들과의 관계를 강수-온도-습도-일조량이 연동되어 모의되는 기법을 개발하고자 한다. 기존 국내외 연구결과들은 지수함수식의 형태를 가지는 모형을 이용하여 온도-일조량(radiation), 온도-습도, 습도-일조량, 온도와 강수-일조량과 습도를 개별적으로 추정하는 연구들이 있었다. 그러나 온도, 강수량, 습도, 일조량 등은 기상학적 관점에서 모두 연관성을 가지고 각 변량들에 영향을 주고 있다. 이러한 점에 착안하여 본 연구에서는 4가지 변량들이 가지는 관계를 규명하고 각 변량간의 상관관계뿐만 아니라 4가지 변량이 동시에 상관성을 갖도록 모형을 구축하고자 한다. 일반적으로 각 변량들 간의 확률적인 거동을 동시에 고려할 수 있는 Network 모형이 많이 이용된다. 본 연구에서는 Bayesian Network 모형을 활용하여 4가지 변량 간에 Bayesian Network를 구성하고, 통계적 모형으로 발전시켜 기후변화 연구에 활용하고자 한다. 제안된 방법론에 대한 적합성을 평가하기 위해, 서울지점을 대상으로 온도, 강수, 습도, 일조량 값을 이용하였다. 기후변화에 따른 수문순환모형에서 이들 4가지 변량은 기본 입력자료로 이용되고 있으나, 현재까지는 강수 및 온도를 사용한 모형 개발이 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 점에서 본 연구의 결과는 기후변화에 따른 물순환 변동성을 평가하는 기본 자료로서 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

하천형태학적 특성은 유역의 수문학적 특성 및 수리학적 특성과 밀접한 관계를 가진다. 본 논문은 하천형태학적 특성과 빈도유량 및 하도의 수리기하학적 특성간의 상관성을 금강수계를 대상으로 분석하였으며 이들 연구의 목적은 미계측지점에 대한 이수계획을 수립하는데 필요한 자료를 제공하는데 있다. 금강수계의 하천형태학적 특성분석은 Horton의 하천차수개념을 이용하여 하천지형의 3대 법칙에 의하여 분석하였으며 분석결과는 Horton의 법칙과 잘 일치하였다. 또한 유역특성과 수로특성간의 상관분석인 하천연장-유역면적관계와 상대고도-상대고도관계분석에서도 밀접한 상관성을 보여 주었다. 금강수계내의 5개수위표 지점에서 생기빈도 0.1~0.9의 유량자료를 사용하여 얻는 각 지점의 유량빈도곡선은 대체로 지수함수관계로 표시할 수 있었다. 하천형태학적 특성을 연속적으로 표시하기 위하여 비례하천차수를 도입하였으며 이를 이용하여 유량 = 생기빈도 - 비례하천차수간의 관계에 대한 수학적 모형을 정립하였다. 또한 서로 다른 두 축척에 따라 하천차수는 달라지나 하천형태학적 특성에 관한 Horton의 3대법칙에는 근본적으로 영향이 없음을 알 수 있었다. 유역의 하천형태학적 특성을 매개변수로 하여 빈도유량과 수리기하학적 인자간의 관계, 유역면적과 수리기하학적 인자간의 관계 및 연평균 유출용적과 수리기하학적 인자간의 관계를 분석하여 각각에 대한 수학적 모형을 제안하였다.

In this paper, elastic and plastic adhesion index was very important in deciding adhesive characteristics and varying elastic and plastic index, dimensionless load and pull-off force were analyzed and simulated. Finally, using AFM, experimental surface roughness parameters of substrates and pull-off force between tip and substrates were produced. Using these values, pull-off forces were calculated and were compared with experimental pull-off forces. Through simulation and experiment, it was found that interaction of asperity also had very important influence on adhesive contact.
