We conducted magnetic survey using IBRV (Ice Breaker Research Vessel) ARAON of KORDI (Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute), ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) of Oceaneering Co. and three components vector magnetometer, at Apr., 2011 in the western slope of the caldera of TA25 seamount, the Lau Basin, the southwestern Pacific. The depth ranges of the survey area are from about 900 m to 1200 m, below sea level. For the deep sea magnetic survey, we made the nation's first small deep sea three components magnetometer of Korea. The magnetometer sensor and the data logger was attached with the upper part and lower part of ROV, respectively. ROV followed the planning tracks at 25 ~ 30 m above seafloor using the altimeter and USBL (Ultra Short Base Line) of ROV. The three components magnetometer measured the X (North), Y (East) and Z (Vertical) vector components of the magnetic field of the survey area. A motion sensor provided us the data of pitch, roll, yaw of ROV for the motion correction of the magnetic data. The data of the magnetometer sensor and the motion sensor were recorded on a notebook through the optical cable of ROV and the network of ARON. The precision positions of magnetic data were merged by the post-processing of USBL data of ROV. The obtained three components magnetic data are entirely utilized by finding possible hydrothermal vents of the survey area.

We developed the ocean disaster detection system(OD2S) which copes with the occurrences of ocean disasters (e. g. the red and green tide, the oil spill, the typhoon, and the sea ice) by converging and integrating the ocean color remote sensing using the satellite and the information technology exploiting the mass data processing and the pattern recognitions. This system which is based on the cosine similarity detects the ocean disasters in real time. The existing ocean color sensors which are operated in the polar orbit platforms cannot conduct the real time observation of ocean environments because they support the low temporal resolutions of one observation a day. However, geostationary ocean color imager(GOCI), the first geostationary ocean color sensor in the world, produces the ocean color images(e. g. the chlorophyll, the colored dissolved organic matter(CDOM), and the total suspended solid(TSS)), with high temporal resolutions of hourly intervals up to eight observations a day. The evaluation demonstrated that the OD2S can detect the excessive concentration of chlorophyll, CDOM, and TSS. Based on these results, it is expected that OD2S detects the ocean disasters in real time.

Thermal properties of geomaterial are overlooked with other geomechanical properties. The transient line-source (TLS) method is one of the most used testing methods for measuring the thermal conductivity (K) and thermal diffusivity ($\alpha$) of materials. But more recently, Transient Plane-Source method was developed to measure these. It has several advantage of comparing with TSL method, but there has not been documented application in geomaterial. A Resistance Temperature Detector is used to construct sensor. For durability of Probe, Adopt a new technique that two probes are bonded in exact matching. For standard materials, such as glycerin, and ice the measured K and a values of these materials were generally within 2-5% from the standard values in the literature. This document present to evaluate the thermal properties of geomaterials and its application was tested for varying degree of saturation using the Transient Plane Source method. The result of this study suggests that it is an comparatively accurate method for simultaneously measuring thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity and can identify the feasibility to geomaterial.

We propose an object recognition system and experiential game contents using Kinect to maximize object recognition rate by utilizing underwater robots. we implement an ice hockey game based on object-aware interactive contents to validate the excellence of the proposed system. The object recognition system, which is a preprocessor module, is composed based on Kinect and OpenCV. Network sockets are utilized for object recognition communications between C/S. The problem of existing research, degradation of object recognition at long distance, is solved by combining the system development method suggested in the study. As a result of the performance evaluation, the underwater robot object recognized all target objects (90.49%) with 80% of accuracy from a 2m distance, revealing 42.46% of F-Measure. From a 2.5m distance, it recognized 82.87% of the target objects with 60.5% of accuracy, showing 34.96% of F-Measure. Finally, it recognized 98.50% of target objects with 59.4% of accuracy from a 3m distance, showing 37.04% of F-measure.

TRMM TMI data were used to investigate a relationship between physical parameters from microwave sensor and typhoon intensities from June to September, 2004. Several data such as 85GHz brightness temperature (TB), polarization corrected temperature (PCT), precipitable water, ice content, rain rate, and latent heat release retrieved from the TMI observation were correlated to the maximum wind speeds in the best-track database by RSMC-Tokyo. Correlation coefficient between TB and typhoon intensity was -0.2 - -0.4 with a maximum value in the 2.5 degree radius circle from the center of tropical cyclone. The value of correlation between in precipitable water, rain, latent heat, and typhoon intensity is in the range of 0.2-0.4. Correlation analysis with respect to storm intensity showed that maximum correlation is observed at 1.0-1.5 degree radius circle from the center of tropical cyclone in the initial stage of tropical cyclone, while maximum correlation is shown in 0.5 degree radius in typhoon stage. Correlation coefficient was used to produce regressed intensities and adopted for typhoon Rusa (2002) and Maemi (2003). Multiple regression with 85GHz TB and precipitable water was found to provide an improved typhoon intensity when taking into account the storm size. The results indicate that it may be possible to use TB and precipitable water from satellite observation as a predictor to estimate the intensity of a tropical cyclone.
