본 연구는 다중시기 위성영상과 머신러닝 알고리즘을 이용하여 준국가수준의 시계열 산림바이오매스량을 추정하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 산림배출기준선 설정하여 비교·분석하였다. 머신러닝기반의 산림바이오매스 추정 모델을 구축하기 위하여 Landsat TM 위성영상과 유럽항공우주국에서 제공하는 Biomass Climate Change Initiative 정보를 이용하였으며, 머신러닝 알고리즘은 비모수 학습모델인 k-Nearest Neighbor(kNN)과 의사결정나무 기반의 Random Forest(RF)를 적용하였다. 또한, 추정된 산림바이오매스량은 Forest reference emission levels(FREL) 자료와 비교하였다. 머신러닝 알고리즘 별 산림바이오매스 추정 모델을 비교해보면, 최적의 kNN 모델과 RF 모델의 Root Mean Square Error (RMSE)는 각각 35.9와 34.41였으며, RF모델이 kNN모델보다 상대적으로 우수하였다. 또한, FREL, kNN, RF 모델 별 산림배출기준선의 기울기는 각각 약 -33천ton, -253천ton, -92천ton으로 설정되었다.

The influences of the deep-level concentration of p-type Si substrates on the optical properties of nano-porous silicon (PS) are investigated by deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) and photoluminescence (PL). Utilizing a Si substrate with Fe contaminations significantly enhanced the PL intensity of PS. All the PS samples formed on Fe-contaminated silicon substrates had stronger PL yield than that of reference PS without any intentional Fe contamination but the emission peak is not significantly changed. For the PS 1000 sample with Fe contamination of 1,000 ppb, the maximum PL intensity showed about ten times stronger PL than that of the reference PS sample. From PL and DLTS results, the PL efficiency strongly depends on the Fe-related trap concentration in Si substrates.

This study aimed to analyze the applicability of the improved median filter in positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) fusion images based on parallel imaging using generalized autocalibrating partially parallel acquisition (GRAPPA). In this study, a PET/MR fusion imaging system based on a 3.0T magnetic field and ¹⁸F radioisotope were used. An improved median filter that can set a mask of the median value more efficiently than before was modeled and applied to the acquired image. As quantitative evaluation parameters of the noise level, the contrast to noise ratio (CNR) and coefficient of variation (COV) were calculated. Additionally, no-reference-based evaluation parameters were used to analyze the overall image quality. We confirmed that the CNR and COV values of the PET/MR fusion images to which the improved median filter was applied improved by approximately 3.32 and 2.19 times on average, respectively, compared to the noisy image. In addition, the no-reference-based evaluation results showed a similar trend for the noise-level results. In conclusion, we demonstrated that it can be supplemented by using an improved median filter, which suggests the problem of image quality degradation of PET/MR fusion images that shortens scan time using GRAPPA.

본 논문은 REDD(Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation, 개발도상국의 산림파괴 및 산림황폐화 방지를 통한 온실가스 감축) 기준선 설정시 토지이용변화 예측모형 적용의 한계점을 지적한다. REDD는 산림을 보호하는 대가로 탄소배출권을 생성하고 이를 거래하는 내용이 골자를 이루는 국제환경보전 정책이다. 탄소배출권의 규모는 기준선(reference level)에 근거해 정해지는데, '기준선'이란 산림파괴 패턴이 현상태 그대로 유지될 경우 미래에 발생할 탄소배출량을 의미한다. 본 논문에서는 토지이용변화 예측모형인 Geographic Emission Benchmark(GEB)와 GEOMOD의 모델링 결과를 비교하여 공간적 스케일이 변함에 따라 이들의 정확도가 어떻게 달라지는지를 분석하였다. 두 모형을 중국 운남성 시솽반나 열대림 사례에 적용한 결과, GEB가 상대적으로 양적 예측이 더 우수한 것으로 나타났고, GEOMOD는 위치적 예측이 더 정확한 것으로 밝혀졌다. 양적 예측은 몇 헥타르의 산림이 미래에 경작지로 개간이 될 것인가에 대한 결과를 의미하고, 위치적 예측은 그 개간이 어디에서 일어날 것인가에 대한 결과를 가리킨다. 또한, 위치적 예측이 다소 부정확하더라도 양적인 예측이 우수하면 전반적으로 특정 모형이 우수한 결과를 나타낼 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 REDD 기준선 설정시 양적 예측과 위치적 예측이 모두 중요한 만큼 다양한 조건 하에서의 정확도 변이를 고려하여 신중하게 토지이용변화 예측모형 적용해야지만 정확한 기준선을 설정할 수 있음을 시사한다.

The integrated permit system is applied to class 1 and 2 atmospheric and water pollutant discharge facilities in 19 sectors. The fertilizer sector should receive a permit for a period of four years, from 2019 to 2023. The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences between the Korean Best Available Techniques (BAT) reference document (K-BREF) and the European Union BAT reference document (EU-BREF) in terms of the process and emission characteristics of fertilizer manufacture. K-BREF is written by focusing on products, whereas EU-BREF is produced on focusing on manufacture process. There are five types of BATs(best available techniques economically achievable) in Korea. These BATs selected mainly to recover and reuse raw meterials and save energy. The number of BATs and BAT-AELs(BAT associated emission level) in K-BREF is smaller than that in EU-BREF. We suggest that BATs and those environmental management parameters in Korea need to further reflect the emission characteristics in the fertilizer sector.

Purpose - This paper research on the embodied carbon emission in Sino-Korea trade. It calculates and analyzes the carbon emission coefficient and specific carbon emissions in Sino-Korea trade from 2005 to 2014. Design/methodology - This paper conducted an empirical analysis for embodied carbon emission in Sino-Korea trade during the years 2005-2014, using a multi-region input-output model. First, direct and complete CO2 emission coefficient of the two countries were calculated and compared. On this basis, combined with the world input-output table, the annual import and export volume and sector volume of embodied carbon emission are determined. Then through the comparative analysis of the empirical results, the reasons for the carbon imbalance in Sino-Korea trade are clarified, and the corresponding suggestions are put forward according to the environmental protection policies being implemented by the two countries. Findings - The results show that South Korea is in the state of net trade export and net embodied carbon import. The carbon emission coefficient of most sectors in South Korea is lower than that of China. However, the reduction of carbon emission coefficient in China is significantly faster than that in South Korea in this decade. The change of Korea's complete CO2 emission coefficient shows that policy factors have a great impact on environmental protection. The proportion of intra industry trade between China and South Korea is relatively large and concentrated in mechanical and electrical products, chemical products, etc. These sectors generally have large carbon emissions, which need to be noticed by both countries. Originality/value - To the best knowledge of the authors, this study is the first attempt to research the embodied carbon emission of ten consecutive years in Sino-Korea Trade. In addition, In this paper, some mathematical methods are used to overcome the error problem caused by different statistical caliber in different databases. Finally, the accurate measurement of carbon level in bilateral trade will provide some reference for trade development and environmental protection.

Airborne particulate matter $(PM_{10})$ collected using high volume air sampler and silica fiber filter were analyzed by Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis(INAA), Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry(ICP-AES) and Atomic Absorption Spectrometry(AAS), and the results were compared with each other. 30~40 trace elements in environmental standard reference materials(NIST SRM 1648 and NIES CRM No.8) were analyzed for the analytical quality control. The relative error for two-third of elements detected was less than 10%, and the standard deviation was less than 15%. During the sampling period for 24 hours, the mass concentration of total suspended particulate was 36.1$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥ and the value is lower than the critical level in Korea. In the results of NAA, the elements of Al, As, Ba, Fe, La, Mg, Na, Sb, Zn were well agreed with those of other methods. In statistical estimation between different methods, the deviation of Al, Ba, Cr, Fe was less than 10% and quite reliable.

MARKAL (MARKet ALlocation) Model, one of the most sophisticated energy technology assessment model is applied to finding the optimum mix of energy sources and evaluating energy technology competitiveness in Korea. The model is capable of handling Multiple Objective Linear Programming to test the related cost minimization and environmental control function. In this paper three environmental regulation scenarios are observed including 10% and 20% reduction of carbon dioxide emission level. For the purpose of establishing the basic data base, Korea Reference Engergy System is also developed on the base of the year 1989 with technology utilization and energy flow analysis.

This paper is described the analysis of time-varying low-frequency electric magnetic field emitted from electric rolling stocks fed by VVVF inverter, in reference to allowable magnitude for exposures to time-varying electromagnetic field issued by International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection(ICNIRP). The level of the magnetic field strength was measured, in reference to the standard for occupational environments, which takes into account the public person's protection against the excessive emission of the low-frequency magnetic field, 5 Hz ~ 2 kHz.
