We would like to investigate the strong wind phenomenon effecting to the onset of a sea breeze. It is general the fact that the onset time of a sea breeze is mainly affected according to the distance from the coastline but we find the reversal fact. The onset time at Suyoung is faster than that at Haeundae in spite of the observation site of Suyoung is 5 m and that of Haeundae is 1 km away from the coastline. This is the reason that the nighttime air is converged the lower area by surface cooling and then it is strongly drained onto the lowest area, Suyoung river until the sunrise. it is proved by observation data at Suyoung and Haeundae.

A study on the infrared signature of a naval ship by the solar elevation was performed using the well known IR signature analysis software, ShipIR/NTCS. The contrast radiant intensity of a ship against the Eastern Sea background from sunrise to noon was investigated. Monthly averaged climate data for both January and July were applied to investigate the seasonal change in the signature. A study on the signature for different ship speeds was also carried out. Simulation results showed that the maximum signature in both wave-bands for a sea-level observer occurred at around 25~35 degrees of solar elevation and was highly dependent on the ship geometry rather than the solar irradiance.

This study aims to develop the analysis tool that assesses the sunlight at any given point of a window or solar collector array shaded by surrounding obstacles. The development of this software, named SunChart, focused to the user-friendliness and the reliability. This SunChart can calculate the solar radiation as well as shading on the certain face. The calculation results by SunChart show by both numerically and graphically and are in a good agreement with ones obtained from "Sunrise Sunset" developed at Korea Astronomy Observatory and from TRNSYS.

In this paper, effective ways to produce distilled water with solar radiation was investigated. Four different boxes of condensation systems were compared. The bottoms of the boxes were identical, but the angles of the top collecting plates were different. During the solar radiation, condensation did not occur. Condensation started when solar radiation was decreased. The maximum condensation was found when the temperatures of the top and bottom parts were equal. The condensation was continued until sunrise with gradually reduced rate. When the collecting plate angle was $45^{\circ}$, condensation was the highest compared with other angles.

A plethora of paraneoplastic syndromes have been reported as remote effects of colorectal carcinoma (CRC). However, there is a dearth of data pertaining to the association of this cancer with demyelinating neuropathies. Herein, we describe the case of a young woman diagnosed with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Treatment with intravenous immunoglobulins and prednisone did not improve her condition, and her neurological symptoms worsened. Subsequently, she was readmitted with exertional dyspnea, lightheadedness, malaise, and black stools. Colonoscopy revealed a necrotic mass in the ascending colon, which directly invaded the second part of the duodenum. Pathologic results confirmed the diagnosis of locally advanced CRC. Upon surgical resection of the cancer, her CIDP showed dramatic resolution without any additional therapy. Patients with CRC may develop CIDP as a type of paraneoplastic syndrome. Clinicians should remain cognizant of this potential association, as it is of paramount importance for the necessary holistic clinical management.

We present preliminary observations of the field-aligned-irregularities (FAIs) in the E and F regions during the solar minimum (2009 - 2010) using the 40.8 MHz coherent backscatter radar at Daejeon ($36.18^{\circ}N$, $127.14^{\circ}E$, $26.7^{\circ}N$ dip latitude) in South Korea. The radar, which consists of 24 Yagi antennas, observes the FAIs using a single beam with a peak power of 24 kW. The radar has been continuously operated since December 2009. Depending on the manner of occurrence of the backscatter echoes, the E-region echoes are largely divided into two types: quasi-periodic (QP) and continuous echoes. Our observations show that the QP echoes occur frequently above an altitude of 105 km in the post-sunset period and continuous echoes occur preferentially around an altitude of 105 km in the post-sunrise period. QP echoes appear as striated discrete echoes for a period of about 10 - 20 min. The QP-type echoes occur more frequently than the continuous-type echoes do and the echo intensity of the QP type is stronger than that of the continuous type. In the F region, the FAIs occur at night at an altitude interval of 250 - 450 km. As time proceeds, the occurrence height of the FAIs gradually increases until early in the morning and then decreases. The duration of the F-region FAIs is typically a few hours at night, although, in rare cases, FAIs persist throughout the night or appear even after sunrise. We discuss the similarities and differences of the FAIs observed by the Daejeon radar in comparison with other radar observations.

The vertical distribution and activity patterns of fishes during the evening and morning transitions between day and night were studied acoustically and by bottom trawling in November 1990-1992 in thermally stratified waters of the East China Sea. The acoustic data were collected from six stations with a scientific echo-sounder operating at two frequencies of 25 and 100kHz, and the echograms were used to determine the vertical distributions of fish. Biological sampling was accomplished by bottom trawling to identify fish species recorded on the echograms, and the species and length compositions were determined. At each station, vertical profiles of water temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen were taken with a CTD system and were related to the diel movements and the depth distributions of fish. During the day most fish were within several meters above bottom, but began to migrate upwards just before sunset, and during the night they were dispersed in midwater. Prior to sunrise with a thermocline present, one group of the fish aggregation occurred in dense schools slightly above the thermocline, while the other group occurred with the numerous single fish-traces bellow it. These groups of aggregations rapidly began to migrate toward the bottom across the thermocline from about 40 min before sunrise. Trawl hauls in the bottom strata below the thermocline with the characteristic single fish traces yieled invariably catches dominated by snailfish and fishing frog with minor quantities of other species in all stations. Hence, the results indicate that snailfish and fishing frog were the dominated scatterers in the depth strata below the thermocline, and the single-fish recordings were mainly snailfish. The fish species such as anchovy and juvenile mackerel in bottom trawl catches is poorly represented in relation to the mesh selectivity of the trawl net, but their occurrence suggest that the fish-school recording above the thermocline were due to these species which migrated vertically across the thermocline, with a temperature gradient of about 8$^{\circ}C$, from the water layers near the bottom at night. Accordingly, we conclude that the vertical distribution and activity patterns of snailfish were strongly temperature dependent and in the termally stratified waters, the upper limit to diel activity was closely linked to the position of the thermocline.

[ ${\ll}$삼국사기${\gg},\;{\ll}$고려사${\gg},\;{\ll}$조선왕조실록${\gg},\;{\ll}$승정원일기${\gg}$ ]에 나오는 천문 관측 기록 가운데 특히 달가림(lunar occultation) 기록을 분석하여 당시의 시간제도와 하루의 시작점을 알아냈다. 특히, 조선시대에는 일식이나 월식을 계산할 때는 백각법(百刻法)과 12진각법(十二辰刻法)이 사용되었고 하루의 시작점은 자정이었으나, 일상생활과 특히 천문관측에서는 경점법(更點法)이 사용되었는데, 하루의 시작점은, 최소한 고려시대부터는, 해 뜰 무렵임을 확인하였다. 또한 전통적으로 동아시아 문화권에서 사용한 혼명(昏明)의 시간은 현대의 항해박명(nautical twilight)을 뜻함을 알아냈다. 우리의 결과는 현재 일상생활의 시간관념이 옛날 시간제도에서 비롯되었음을 말해주며, 농경사회에서 해의 뜨고 짐에 따라 일상생활이 정해지고 또한 천문 관측상 편리하기 때문에 경점법을 쓴 것이라고 해석된다. 우리의 연구 결과는 앞으로 고대 천문 관측 기록의 시간을 정확하게 미루어 계산하고, 그것을 현대 천문학적 자료로 사용하는데 유용할 것이다.

본 연구는 우리나라 남해안에 분포하는 멸치 자원의 산란특성을 밝히기 위하여 1991년 3월부터 9월까지 멸치 성어의 생식소 조사로써 크기별 산란기, 산란빈도, 산란시각 및 산란수를 추정하였다. 산란기는 12cm 이상의 어체에서는 이른 봄철부터 초가을까지이며, 12cm 이하에서는 늦봄부터 초여름에 걸쳐서 2-3 개월간 산란에 참여하는 것으로 추정되었다. 성어의 산난빈도를 추정하고자 난경 빈도 분포를 구한 결과, 전체 난모세포군에서 분리되어 독립된 모우드를 형성하는 600um 이상인 수화란을 가진 개체의 비율은 성어의 약 $20\%$로서 5일에 1번 방란하는 것으로 추정되었다. 저녁에 채집된 어체의 난경 조성이 아침에 채집된 경우보다 전체적으로 큰 경향을 보였으며, 최대 난경군이 전체 난모 세포군에서 분리되어 있는 산난 직전의 현상을 보인 것으로 보아 야간에 산란이 일어난다고 볼 수 있었다. 포란수는 23,000-315,000립의 범위였으며, 최대 난경군의 난모세포수로부터 추정된 1회 산란수는 1,857-8,223립, 체중 1g당 산난수는 276-697입, 평균 산란수는 438입이었다.
