In this study, a USV(Unmanned Surface Vehicle) equipped with high-accuracy DGPS(Differential GPS) and single-beam echo sounder was developed. The depth of the reservoir was measured using a USV and a GCS(Ground Control System). A 3D mapping drawing was created using the commercial software ReefMaster. By using USV, the accuracy and efficiency of work was improved. Depth surveying, which was difficult with human resources, is performed using automatic navigation and the volume of the reservoir was calculated. Using 3D mapping drawing, we were able to conduct a detailed investigation of reservoir dredging and ecological environment. It is also expected to be effective in identifying environmental issues.

In this paper, the measurement data is analyzed and channel characteristics are derived through MIMO Channel measurements at 781MHz considering antenna correlation. 781MHz frequency band currently operates the DTV system, however, it will be allocated new mobile communication frequency band. The channel characteristics at 781MHz seem to be similar existing mobile communication system at 900MHz but quite a different part of the existing research has demonstrated. In addition, the signal procedure of the channel characteristics, considering the correlation of the antenna, for a more accurate prediction research is needed. To avoid interference with Korean DTV broadcasting, we measured channel characteristics in urban areas of Jeju island by channel sounder and $4{\times}4$ antenna. Channel characteristics with antenna correlation were derived based on the measured data in the urban area.

In this paper, the measurement data is analyzed and channel parameters are derived through MIMO Channel measurements at 781MHz considering outdoor multi-path environment. 781MHz frequency band currently operates the DTV system. However, it will be allocated new mobile communication frequency band. The channel characteristics at 781MHz seem to be similar existing mobile communication system at 900MHz but a study on channel characteristics of signal transfer process is necessary because there is incomplete study in mobile networks at 781MHz. To avoid interference with Korean DTV broadcasting, we measured channel characteristics in city/suburban areas of Jeju island by channel sounder and $4{\times}4$ antenna of the ETRI(Korea Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute). Path Loss, Delay Spread, Angular Spread and K-factor were derived based on measured data.

Stability and durability of the artificial reefs (ARs) for wildstock enhancement have been a key issue. We surveyed the side scan sonar (SSS), multi beam echo sounder (MBES) and scuba diving surveys confirmed that the ARs stability was age and type-dependent. A case of the stability of 8,438 ARs (60 group ARs) installed at 4 sites (Yangyang, Gangeung, Donghae and Samcheok) along the Gangwon coast of the East Sea (Sea of Japan). And a confirmation amount to 85.4% ARs remained safe, the rest 14.6% being influenced by a physical parameter of the waters. The representative influences by their circumstances were of breakage (6.3%). capsizing (8.3%). A group of a ARs to 61.7% ARs remained safe, the rest 38.3% being influenced by a physical parameter of the waters. The representative influences by their circumstances were of buried.

The most satisfactory split-beam transducer for fish sizing maintains a wide bearing angle region for correct fish tracking without interference from side lobes and lower sensitivity to fish echoes outside of the main lobe region to correctly measure the angular location of free-swimming fishes in the sound beam. To evaluate the performance of an experimentally developed 50 kHz split-beam transducer, the angular location of a target was derived from the electrical phase difference between the resultant signals for the pair of transducer quadrants in the horizontal and vertical planes consisting of 32 transducer elements. The electrical phase difference was calculated by cross-spectral density analysis for the signals from the pair of receiving transducer quadrants, and the directivity correction factor for a developed split-beam transducer was estimated as the fourth-order polynomial of the off-axis beam angle for the angular location of the target. The experimental results demonstrate that the distance between the acoustic centers for the pair of receiving transducer quadrants can be controlled to less than one wavelength by optimization with amplitude-weighting transformers, and a smaller center spacing provides a range of greater angular location for tracking of a fish target. In particular, a side lobe level of -25.2 dB and an intercenter spacing of $0.96\lambda$($\lambda$= wavelength) obtained in this study suggest that the angular location of fish targets distributing within a range of approximately ${\pm}28^{\circ}$ without interference from side lobes can be measured.

Visualization requires for effective analysis of the spatial data collected by various sensors. The best way to convey 3D digital spatial information which is modeling of the real world to the users, realistic 3D visualization and display technology. Since most of the display is based on 2D or 2.5D projection to the plane, there is limitation in representing real world in 3D space. In this paper, data from airborne LiDAR for topographic mapping, Flashi-LiDAR as emerging sensor with great potential to 3D data acquisition, and multibeam echo-sounder for underwater measurement, were stereoscopically visualized. 3D monitors are getting popular and could be information media and platform in geoinformatics. Therefore, study on creating 3D stereoscopic contents of spatial information is essential for new technology of stereo viewing systems.

Purpose: sexual permissiveness, sexual behaviors and the consumption of mass media in female high school students. Methods: 306 students, from three different girls' high schools in Seoul, who understood the purpose of the study, participated as subjects in the research. The research tools were the mass-media consumption scale, the sexual attitudes survey, the sexual permissiveness survey, and the sexual behaviors scale. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, t-test, ANOVA with SPSS/WIN. 18.0 program. Results: The subjects' daily mass media consumption was 143.7 minutes of TV watching on weekdays, while 253.9 minutes on weekends, 88.5 minutes of Internet surfing, 57.8 minutes of listening to pop music. Watching TV music programs was 68.3 minutes a week. Watching TV 'alone' was 30.7% and Internet surfing in one's 'own room' was the highest at 39.9%. The average score of sexual attitudes, sexual permissiveness, and sexual behaviors was 25.7/55, 35.4/64 and 0.7/10, respectively. Sexual attitudes and sexual permissiveness varied according to how much time they spent surfing the Internet, with whom they watched TV, and how much time they spent listening to popular music; and sexual behavior differed according to the time spent on the Internet. Conclusion: Educational programs need to be developed to help young people control their media consumption behaviors. In addition, political attention and a proper system are needed to promote a healthier and sounder pop culture through a public review system.

Acoustic technologies are commonly used to estimate biomass and distribution of fisheries resources in coastal areas and the open ocean. The pelagic species of Engraulis japonica, Scomber japonicus and Sardinops melanosticta spawn migrate to the southern part of the Sea of Korea and capture of these three species comprise 50% of the total abundance in Korean waters. Since 1970, anchovy landings have increased to 0.2 million tons in 1990, 0.27 million tons in 2001, and 0.25 million tons in 2003. Acoustic surveys were conducted on 24-26, May and 20-21, June 2005 around the Tongyeong, Geojae, and Namhae anchovy fishing ground using a dual beam echo sounder (DT-5000, 200 kHz Biosonics). Using this approach, information was obtained on the distribution (depth and position) of zooplankton, and adult and juvenile anchovy. We calculated and compared anchovy biomass using simple summation and geostatistic methods to assess the advantages and constraints of the two techniques.

The largehead hairtail (Trichiurus lepturus) is one of the most common fisheries stocks in the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea. The species is caught using a variety of fishing tools, such as a stow net or a long line, as well as jigging and trawling. Scientific investigations have been conducted throughout the world to enable evidence-based estimations for the management and protection of the main fisheries biomass. For example, inshore and offshore hydro acoustic surveys are performed annually using bottom- and mid-water trawls around the Korean Peninsula. However, to date, no acoustic survey has been conducted to estimate fish size distribution, which is necessary to construct a data bank of target strength (TS) relative to fish species, length (L), and frequency. This study describes the frequency and length dependence of TS among fishes in Korean waters for the purpose of constructing such a TS data bank. TS measurements of the largehead hairtail were carried out in a water tank (L 5 m$\times$width 6 m$\times$ height 5 m) at frequencies of 50, 75, 120, and 200 kHz, using a tethering method. The average TS patterns were measured as a function of tilt angle, ranging from $-45^{\circ}$ (head down) to $+45^{\circ}$ (head up) every $0.2^{\circ}$. The length conversion constant ($b_{20}$) was estimated under the assumption that TS is proportional to the square of the length. In addition, in situ TS measurements on live largehead hairtails were performed using a split beam echo sounder.
