This study was conducted to analysis a major cause of rice yield reduction in 4 research points, 1, 2, 3, and 5km, from coastline in the East Sea. There were great changes of temperature in each research point, though the average temperature a day was no difference between each research point. Each temperature in 1, 2, and 3km research points was 8, 7, and $4^{\circ}C$ lower than in 5km when cold salty wind was generated due to cold pool. As it was close in coastline, its soil was abundant sand components, little silt and clay soil components and lacking in cation exchange capacity(CEC). And plant height became a smaller, heading date was delayed for 3～4 days, and dry weight was reduced. Also, it was to be down percent of fertile grain. As cultivation site was close in seaside, its decline was larger because of reduction of panicle number per hill. It was "Samdeogbyeo" that was variety adapted in cold salty wind, having yield potential more than 90% in 2km.

In this study, numerical experiments were conducted to identify distribution of rising flow and flux in the East Sea of Korea, where the coastal upwelling occurs. Temperature and salinity data from CTD observations and NIFS during summer 2013 were applied to the model. Numerical experiments were carried out with different wind speed (3, 6 m/s and 9 m/s) and direction (southerly and southwesterly), which represent the most frequent in summer conditions. As a result of calculation, upwelling flow rate was found to be highest in Pohang between five coasts(Hupo, Youngduk, Pohang, Ulsan and Busan). Comparing with southerly wind conditions, the rising flow rate is about 1.5 times greater when southwesterly wind was applied. Horizontal diffusion of the upwelling area is expected to have a speed of 17~22 km/day when a 9 m/s southwesterly wind is applied. If this wind continues over one week, a cold pool will be generated by upwelling that may reach to the Ulleung area.

In this paper, the structural design and integrity evaluations for a reactor vessel of PGSFR sodium-cooled fast reactor(150MWe) are carried out in compliance with ASME BPV III, Division 5 Subsection HB. The reactor vessel is designed with a direct contact of primary sodium coolant to its inner surface and has a double vessel concept enclosing by containment vessel. To assure the structural integrity for 60 years design lifetime and elevated operating temperature of $545^{\circ}C$, which can invoke creep and creep-fatigue damage, the structural integrity evaluations are carried out in compliance with the ASME code rules. The design loads considered in this evaluations are primary loads and operation thermal cycling loads of normal heat-up and cool-down. From the evaluations, the PGSFR reactor vessel satisfies the ASME code limits but it was found that there is a little design margin of creep damage for inner surface at the region of cold pool free surface.

The FHX (Forced-draft sodium-to-air Heat Exchanger) employed in the ADHRS (active decay heat removal system) is a shell-and-tube type counter-current flow heat exchanger with M-shape finned-tube arrangement. Liquid sodium flows inside the heat transfer tubes and atmospheric air flows over the finned tubes. The unit is placed in the upper region of the reactor building and has function of dumping the system heat load into the final heat sink, i.e., the atmosphere. Heat is transmitted from the primary cold sodium pool into the ADHRS sodium loop via DHX (decay heat exchanger), and a direct heat exchange occurs between the tube-side sodium and the shell-side air through the FHX tube wall. This paper describes the DHRS and the structural design of the FHX.

Domestic ruminant animals are reared in diverse production systems, ranging from extensive systems under semi-arid and tropical conditions with poor feed resources to intensive systems in temperate and cold areas with high quality feed. Nitrogen (N) recycling between the body and gut of ruminants plays a key role in the adaptation to such diverse nutritional conditions. Ammonia and microbial protein produced in the gut and urea synthesized in the liver are major players in N-recycling transactions. In this review, we focus on the physiological factors affecting urea production and recycling. Sheep and buffalo probably have higher abilities to reabsorb urea from the kidney compared with cattle. This affects the degree of urea-N recycling between the body and gut at both low and high N intakes. The synthesis and gut entry of urea also differs between cattle bred for either dairy or beef production. Lactating dairy cows show a higher gut entry of urea compared with growing cattle. The synthesis and recycling of urea dramatically increases after weaning, so that the functional development of the rumen exerts an essential role in N transactions. Furthermore, high ambient temperature increases urea production but reduces urea gut entry. An increase in total urea flux, caused by the return to the ornithine cycle from the gut entry, is considered to serve as a labile N pool in the whole body to permit metabolic plasticity under a variety of physiological, environmental and nutritional conditions.

Green tides that developed along the coast of China in 2015 were detected and tracked using vegetation indices from GOCI and Landsat images. Green tides first appeared near the Jiangsu Province on May 14 before increasing in size and number and moving northward to the Shandong Peninsula in mid-June. Typhoon Cham-hom passed through the Yellow Sea on July 12, significantly decreasing the algal population. An algae patch moved east toward Korea and on June 18 and July 4, several masses were found between the southwestern shores of Korea and Jeju Island. The floating masses found in Korean waters were concentrated at the boundary of the open sea and the Jindo cold pool, a phenomenon also observed at the boundary of coastal and offshore waters in China. Sea surface temperatures, derived from NOAA SST data, were found to play a role in generation of the green tides.

하나로 냉중성자원(CNS: Cold Neutron Source)은 원자로 수조내 반사체 탱크에 위치한 수직 조사공에 설치되어 하나로 노심에서 발생하는 열중성자를 감속재인 액체 수소층을 통과시켜 냉중성자를 생산한다. 생성된 냉중성자는 유도관을 통하여 냉중성자 산란장치에 공급되어 이용 연구에 활용된다. 감속재로 사용되는 수소는 헬륨냉동계통의 운전에 따라 수소가 수조내기기 집합체(IPA: In Pool Assembly) 내로 이동되어 액화되어지므로, 극저온의 헬륨가스의 흐름이 중요하다. 헬륨냉동기에 의해 만들어진 극저온인 헬륨은 IPA 내의 수소와 열교환을 하기 위해서 배관을 통해 이동되며, 열손실없이 전달하기 위하여 헬륨 배관은 진공층이 형성된 이중배관으로 설계되어 있다. 헬륨 이중배관은 공급 및 회수 배관으로 구성되어 있으며, 헬륨 배관의 외관에 진공층을 20개의 구간으로 나누어 제작 및 설치되었으며, 각각의 진공도를 유지하고 있다. 이 논문에서는 하나로 냉중성자원 헬륨 이중배관의 특성과 헬륨냉동계통의 운전 및 정지시 온도 변화에 따른 이중배관 진공도의 변화를 분석하였다.

본 연구는 대규모 대기환경패턴 변화에 따른 극한 기후발생 및 극치 수문사상의 지역적 변동 특성을 분석하였고, 통계기법을 이용한 기후지수와 수문변량간의 원격상관관계 분석결과를 이용하여 한반도 중 장기 수문변량 예측의 가능성을 진단하였다. 또한 경남 지자체를 대상으로 다양한 통계예측모형(AR, MA, ARMA, ARIMA, VAR)을 구축하여 그 예측능력을 평가하고 적용성을 검토하였고, 중 장기 통합홍수위험 평가를 위한 인덱스를 개발하였다. 서로 다른 엘니뇨 시기별 홍수 위험도 평가결과 전형적인 엘니뇨(Cold Tongue El Nino)해에는 남해안 일부 지역(거제시, 남해군)에서 위험도가 높게 산정되었으며, 경남 북부지역에서는 위험도가 매우 낮게 산정되었다. 중앙태평양 엘니뇨(Warm Pool El Nino) 해에는 경남 남부 지역을 중심으로 홍수위험지수가 높게 나타나 중앙태평양 엘니뇨가 발달 시 경남지역의 홍수위험 발생 가능성 평년에 비하여 큰 것으로 분석된다. 또한 라니냐(La Nina) 해에는 경남 서쪽일부 지역(남해군, 하동군, 산청군)에서 통합홍수위험지수가 높게 나타났으며, 나머지 지역에서는 홍수위험도가 작거나 중간 값을 보이는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구는 중 장기적 관점에서 수자원 예측 및 효율적인 물 관리와 안정적인 용수공급에 도움을 줄 것으로 사료되며, 한반도 대상 특정 엘니뇨 해의 지자체별 홍수위험 취약성 평가에 활용이 가능할 것이다.

KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) developed the conceptual design of PGSFR (Prototype Gen-IV Sodium Cooled Fast Reactor) and Burner Reactor. Since the reactor characteristics of the PGSFR and Burner Reactor are different, the shape, size and the arrangement of the main components in the reactors must be different. Therefore, the conceptual design for the fuel handling and transfer systems needs to be performed coinciding with the structure of the reactor. Especially, because a redan structure dividing hot and cold pool is installed in the reactor vessel, the conceptual design of the fuel handling and transfer system largely changes depending on the location of the redan structure. Various elements of the conceptual design and an integral arrangement for the fuel handling and transfer system were arranged according to the characteristics, sizes and shapes of the reactors. In this paper, the conceptual designs of the fuel handling and transfer system for PGSFR and Burner Reactor are described. Especially, an A-frame method is selected as the fuel handling and transfer system for the Burner Reactor, considering the layout of the internal structure. The tilt angle, diameter and length of A-frame is determined and the strength evaluation of the A-frame is performed.
