In this paper we review current research on Atmospheric Brown Clouds (ABCs) with lightweight Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and miniaturized instruments. The UAV technology for in-situ measurements, including aerosol concentration, aerosol size distribution, aerosol absorption, cloud drop size distribution, solar radiation fluxes (visible and broadband), and spectral radiative fluxes, is a leading-edge technology for cost-effective atmospheric sounding, which can fill the gap between the ground measurement and satellite observation. The first experimental observation with UAVs in Korea, Cheju ABC Plume Monsoon Experiment (CAPMEX), conducted during summer 2008 revealed that the Beijing plumes exerted a strong positive influence on the net warming and fossil-fuel-dominated black-carbon plumes were approximately 100% more efficient warming agents than biomass-burning-dominated plumes. Long-term sustainable routine UAV measurements will eventually provide truly three-dimensional data of ABCs, which is necessary for the better understanding of their climate impacts and for the improvement of numerical models for air pollution, weather forecast and climate change.

With a diode corona charger, which is a component of ELPI(Electrical Low Pressure Impactor), aerosol particles are charged to make electrical detection possible before they are collected by the impactor. We designed and evaluated two cylindrical corona chargers, each of which had a central corona needle electrode. For the performance evaluation of each corona charger the polydisperse dioctyl sebacate(DOS) particles, with diameters of 0.1∼0.8 $\mu$m and NaCl particles, smaller than 0.1$\mu$m, were used. The particles were then led through an electrostatic classifier (TSI model 3081) to classify monodisperse aerosol with minimal size deviation. After evaluating the wall loss of the particles in the corona charger, we measured the product of penetration and number of charges, Pㆍn, to evaluate the corona charger efficiency at high positive voltages of 4, 5, 6 kV.

Aerosol measurement were carried out to investigate the characteristics of its chemical composition directly affected by the local emissions of Jeju City, Jeju Island by using an eight-stage cascade impactor from Dec. 1999 to Aug. 2000. The ambient aerosol concentrations measured at Jeju City were generally very low but the fine particle concentrations were to be higher than the US standard of PM2.5. The majority of sulfate were non sea salt and contained in the fine particles. In the fine particles, the concentrations of Na$\^$+/, K$\^$+/, Mg$\^$2+/, Ca$\^$2+/, Cl$\^$-/ and NO$\sub$3$\^$-/ had a tendency to increase during the springtime rather than the other seasons. However, the springtime sulfate and ammonium concentrations in the fine particles were slightly lower than those during the other seasons. On the other hand, associated with the coarse particles, the concentrations of ionic species except potassium and ammonium were elevated during the springtime. The calcium concentrations in the coarse particles were increased up to 8 times relative to the other seasons.

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of role of transport on aerosol concentration at Crate Lake, Oregon USA for 1988.3~1999. 5. The IMPROVE program is a cooperative measurement effort governed by a steering committee composed of representatives from USA federal and regional-state organizations. Also IMPROVE sampler is designed to obtain a complete signature of the composition of the airborne particles affecting visibility. According to 10-day backward isentropic trajectory analysis, the frequency of local, marine and Asian trajectory showed 33.1%(335 cases), 47%(478 cases), 5.2%(53 cases) respectively. The monthly variation of nss $SO_4^{2-}$, nss S, $NO_3^-$, K and C showed the double peak pattern, high in April~May and August~september and showed the lowest concentration in Winter. The other constituents concentration except for Cl$^{[-10]}$ , Na, Mg was high in local trajectory than marine trajectory. A ratio nss $SO_4^{2-}$ to $SO_4^{2-}$ was 90.5% in marine trajectory and 98% in local trajectory. It suggest that the aerosol in Crater Lake was effected by salt. The annual mean concentration of nss $SO_4^{2-}$ and nss S decreased but the springtime concentration increased.

In this study, we have developed a real-time monitoring device for measuring PM10 and PM2.5 of ambient aerosol particles. The real-time PM monitor (SENTRY Dust Monitor) uses the optical scattering method and has 16 channels in particle size. The laboratory and field tests were carried out to evaluate the developed SENTRY Dust Monitor. Arizona Test Dust particles were used as test particles in the laboratory test and the field test was carried out at the Jongno-gu Observatory in Seoul. The measurements of PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations obtained by SENTTRY Dust Monitor were compared with Grimm Dust Monitor (Model 1.108) and a beta ray gauge. It was shown that the PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations obtained by SENTRY Dust Monitor agree well with that of the reference devices. Based on the results obtained in this study, it could be concluded that the SENTRY Dust Monitor can be used as a PM monitoring device for real-time monitoring of the ambient aerosols.

In this study, a serial methodology is presented for estimating the effective density of ambient sub-micron aerosol employing lab-made 1 stage low-pressure impactor of Hyun et al. (2015) and SMPS (Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer) together. The effective density from this methodology (Impactor+SMPS) was compared with another methodology (BAM+SMPS) for estimating the effective density employing BAM (Beta-Attenuation Monitor) and SMPS. As a result, the effective density obtained with impactor+SMPS ranged from $0.42g/cm^3$ to $2.36g/cm^3$, while the effective density obtained with BAM+SMPS ranged from $1.01g/cm^3$ to $1.72g/cm^3$. The difference between these results might be caused by the particle loss in the impactor.

액체연료 분무 연소에서 화염 외부에 정상초음파 가진을 통해 압력장을 조절함으로써 초음파 무화액체연료 화염에 미치는 초음파 가진의 영향을 관찰하는 실험을 수행하였다. 초음파에 의해 미립화된 케로신 에어로졸화염은 초고속카메라, DSLR 그리고 슐리렌 촬영기법을 이용하여 가시화하였다. 연소시 소모된 연료량은 정밀유량측정법으로 계측하였고, 이를 통해 수송기체 공연비를 구할 수 있었다. 실험결과, 2차화염영역에 정상초음파를 가함에 따라 액체연료 에어로졸의 연소반응률이 증대되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다.

Most of livestock houses are concentrated in certain area with mass rearing system resulting in rapid spread of infectious diseases such as HPAI (highly pathogenic avian influenza). The livestock-related vehicles which frequently travel between farms could be a major factor for disease spread by means of transmission of airborne aerosol including pathogens. This study was focused on the quantitative measurement of aerosol concentration by field experiment while vehicles were passing through the road. The TSP (total suspended particle) and PM10 (particle matter) were measured using air sampler with teflon filter installed downward the road with consideration of weather forecast and the direction of road. And aerosol spectrometer and video recorders were also used to measure the real-time distribution of aerosol concentration by its size. The results showed that PM2.5 was not considerable for transmission of airborne aerosol from the livestock-related vehicle. The mass generated from the road during the vehicle movement was measured and calculated to 241.4 ${\mu}g/m^3$ by means of the difference between TSP and PM2.5. The dispersion distance was predicted by 79.6 m from the trend curve.

본 논문에서는 상용 카메라를 이용하여 미세먼지의 소산계수를 측정하기 위한 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 하나의 주어진 영상에서 같은 방향에 놓인 동일한 종류의 물체에 대한 3개 이상의 화소점의 밝기를 이용하여 소산계수를 측정하였다. 계산에 사용하기 위해 선택된 화소에 해당하는 물체는 카메라와의 거리를 알고 있는 것으로 선택하였다. 카메라를 이용하여 측정한 미세먼지의 소산계수와의 비교를 위하여 라이다를 이용하여 소산계수를 측정하였다. 최종적으로 카메라를 이용하여 측정한 미세먼지의 소산계수와 라이다를 이용한 그것에는 신뢰할 수 있는 상관관계를 얻었으며, 약 0.86 정도의 값을 보였다. 같은 방법으로 카메라의 R, G, B 3센서의 유효파장에서 소산계수를 얻을 수 있다는 것을 보였으며, 이러한 3파장에서의 소산계수를 통하여 하루 동안의 옹스트롱 지수(Angstrom exponent) 변화를 얻었는데, 이 값은 0.7~1.6 범위에 존재한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 지수는 입자의 크기와 관련된 중요한 정보로 사용할 수 있다.

대기중의 산성도($H^+$)를 측정하기 위하여 디누더 시스템(Annula Denuder System)을 이용하였다. 산성도 측정은 1990년 4월 부터 1001년 3월 까지 미국 시카고에서 81개 샘플을 12시간 동안 낮과 밤을 구분하여 측정하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 대기중의 산성도 측정은 디누더 시스템을 이용하면 보다 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있을음 알 수 있었다. 여과지에 포집된 산성도($H^+$)를 추출해 낼때 사용하는 $HCIO_4$용액은 $10^{-5}N$의 농도를 사용하는 것이 $10^{-4}N$의 농도보다 더 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 보다 정확한 산성도를 측정하기 위해서는 에어로졸이 여과지에 포집되기 전에 가스 상태의 $NH_3$가 먼저 제거되어야 한다. 산성도는 계절에 따라 변하였고 여름에 가장 높은 농도를 나타냈다. $SO_4^{2+} 와 $NH_4^+$, 그리고 $SO_4^{2+}와 $H^+$의 상관관계는 높은 것으로 나타났다.
