  • 이 연구는 인공위성 고도계로 관측한 해수면 높이 자료를 이용하여 동해 표층해류를 생산하고, 동해 전체 영역에 대하여 동시성 있는 표층해류 분포를 동해 해류 정보 사용자에게 제공하기 위한 최초의 시도이다. 동해 전 영역에서 인공위성 고도계와 연안 조위관측소의 해수면 높이 자료를 동시에 얻을 수 있으므로 준실시간으로 넓은 해역에 대하여 동시성 있는 표층 지형류의 산출이 가능하다. 산출된 동해 표층 지형류로부터 주요 해류의 위치와 세기 그리고 중규모 이상의 소용돌이 발달 양상을 살펴볼 수 있다. 따라서 이들 해류의 이름과 평균적인 위치를 알 수 있도록 동해 해양지명에 대한 명칭과 위치를 기술하고, 개념적인 해류도를 제시하였다. 동해 해류정보가 실제 실용화될 수 있도록 인공위성 고도계 자료를 이용하여 산출한 지형류의 월 계절 연도별 해류 분포 예를 들고, 각 해류 분포를 설명하였다. 또한 시 공간적으로 변화하는 동해 표층해류 분포 형태를 객관적으로 분류하기 위하여 16년(1993~2008년)간의 표층해류 자료를 경험직교함수(Empirical Orthogonal Function, EOF)를 이용하여 분석하였다. EOF분석 제1모드(mode)는 주로 한국 동해안을 따라 북쪽으로 흐르는 동한난류와 야마도분지 남서부 시계방향 순환의 강화 또는 약화를 나타냈다. 제2모드는 동한난류가 동해 남부를 가로지르며 사행하는 정도를 나타냈으며, 해류 사행의 파장은 약 300 km이었다. 제1모드와 제2모드가 모두 해류의 연간 변동성을 나타냈으며, 제1모드와 제2모드의 시간계수에 따라 동해 표층해류 분포를 관성 경계류 패턴(pattern), 대마난류 패턴, 사행 패턴, 외해분지류 패턴으로 분류할 수 있다.

  • One of the most difficult parameters to measure in the sea is current speed and direction. Recently, efforts are being made to estimate the ocean current vectors by utilizing sequential satellite imageries. In this study, we attempted to estimated sea surface current vector (sscv) by using satellite ocean color imageries of SeaWifs around the Korean Peninsula. This ocean color image data has 1-day sampling interval and spatial resolution of 1x1 km. Maximum cross-correlation method is employed which is aimed to detect similar patterns between sequential images. The estimated current vectors are compared to the surface geostrophic current vectors obtained from altimeter of sea level height data. In utilizing the color imagery data, some limitations and drawbacks exist so that in warm water region where phytoplankton concentration is relatively lower than in cold water region, estimation of sscv is poor and unreliable. On the other hand, two current vector fields agree reasonably well in the Korean South Sea region where high concentration of chlorophyll-a and weak tide is observed. In the future, with ocean color images of shorter sampling interval by COMS satellite, the algorithm and methodology developed in the study would be useful in providing the information for the ocean current around Korean Peninsula.

  • Snow cover is a potential water resource for later spring and summer seasons as well as a thermal mirror with high reflectivity causing decreases of surface air temperature during cold winter seasons. In this study, current and future changes in Northern Hemisphere snow extent and their potential linkages with atmospheric circulation are examined. The NOAA AVHRR visible snow extent (1967-2006) data as well as observational (NCEP-DOE 1979-2006) and modeled (GFDL 2.1 2081-2100) pressure and surface air temperature data are used. Analyses of observational data demonstrate that the snow extent in meteorological spring (March to April) and summer (June to August) has significantly decreased since the late 1980s. The offset of snow seasons (the timing of snow melt in spring) have also significantly advanced particularly in Europe, East Asia, and northwestern North America. Analyses of pressure fields reveal that the spatial patterns of the earlier snow melt are associated with changes in atmospheric circulation such as the Arctic Oscillation (AO). In the positive winter AO years, multiple positive pressure departure cores in the upper troposphere (200hPa) are observed over the mid-latitude regions from March to mid-April, while a negative pressure departure core (70hPa) prevails over the Arctic Ocean. The reversed anomaly patterns related to later snow melt occur in negative winter AO years. The comparison between current and future thermal spring onsets suggest that snow melt patterns will intensify with larger greenhouse gas emissions, indicating earlier hydrological spring onset.

  • Better understanding the mechanism of black ice occurrence on the road in winter is necessary to reduce the socio-economic damage it causes. In this study, intensive observations of road weather elements and surface information under the influence of synoptic high-pressure patterns (22nd December, 2020 and 29th January, and 25th February, 2021) were carried out using a mobile observation vehicle. We found that temperature and road surface temperature change is significantly influenced by observation time, altitude and structure of the road, surrounding terrain, and traffic volume, especially in tunnels and bridges. In addition, even if the spatial distribution of temperature and road surface temperature for the entire observation route is similar, there is a difference between air and road surface temperatures due to the influence of current weather conditions. The observed road temperature, air temperature and air pressure in Nongong Bridge were significantly different to other fixed road weather observation points.

  • Complex physical, chemical and biological interactions off the Korean coast created several striking patterns in the phytoplankton blooms, which became conspicuous during the measurements of ocean color from space. This study concentrated on analyzing the spatial and temporal aspects of phytoplankton chlorophyll variability in these areas using an integrated dataset from a Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS), Advanced Very High Resolution (AVHRR) sensor, and Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) sensor. The results showed that chlorophyll concentrations were elevated in coastal and open ocean regions, with strong summer and fall blooms, which appeared to spread out in most of the enclosed bays and neighboring waters due to certain oceanographic processes. The chlorophyll concentration was observed to range between 3 and $54\;mg\;m^{-3}$ inside Jin-hae Bay and adjacent coastal bays and 0.5 and $8\;mg\;m^{-3}$ in the southeast sea offshore waters, this gradual decrease towards oceanic waters suggested physical transports of phytoplankton blooms from the shallow shelves to slope waters through the influence of the Tsushima Warm Current (TWC) along the Tsushima Strait. Horizontal distribution of potential temperature $(\theta)$ and salinity (S) of water off the southeastern coast exhibited cold and low saline surface water $(\theta and warm and high saline subsurface water $({\theta}>12^{\circ}C; S>34.4)$ at 75dBar, corroborating TWC intrusion along the Tsushima Strait. An eastward branch of this current was called the East Korean Warm Current (EKWC), tracked with the help of CTD data and satellite-derived sea surface temperature, which often influenced the dynamics of mesoscale anticyclonic eddy fields off the Korean east coast during the summer season. The process of such mesoscale anticyclonic eddy features might have produced interior upwelling that could have shoaled and steepened the nutricline, enhancing phytoplankton population by advection or diffusion of nutrients in the vicinity of Ulleungdo in the East Sea.

  • The Morlet wavelet transform method is proposed to analyze a single interferogram with spatial carrier frequency that is captured by an optical interferometer. The method can retain low frequency components that contain the phase information of a measured optical surface, and remove high frequency disturbances by wavelet decomposition and reconstruction. The key to retrieving the phases from the low-frequency wavelet components is to extract wavelet ridges by calculating the maximum value of the wavelet transform amplitude. Afterwards, the wrapped phases can be accurately solved by multiple iterative calculations on wavelet ridges. Finally, we can reconstruct the wave-front of the measured optical element by applying two-dimensional discrete cosine transform to those wrapped phases. Morlet wavelet transform does not need to remove the spatial carrier frequency components manually in the processing of interferogram analysis, but the step is necessary in the Fourier transform algorithm. So, the Morlet wavelet simplifies the process of the analysis of interference fringe patterns compared to Fourier transform. Consequently, wavelet transform is more suitable for automated programming analysis of interference fringes and avoiding the introduction of additional errors compared with Fourier transform.

  • 금강하구 연안역에서 고주파 레이더를 사용하여 2008년 12월부터 2009년 2월까지 표층류를 관측하였는데, 관측된 표층류 자료는 전파의 간섭과 기상 상황에 따라 일시적으로 관측이 이루어지지 않는 구역들이 있었다. 관측된 구역의 자료를 보충하기 위하여 최적보간 과정을 개발하여 적용하였다. 금강하구 연안역에서 표층류의 공간적 상관성의 특성을 조사하고 최적보간법을 이용하여 공간적 결측 구역을 보충하였으며, 보간된 표층류의 시공간적 분포와 산출유속 오차 패턴을 조사하였다. 연구해역 표층 순환에서 조류가 우세하므로 연안역 관측 지점들 사이의 표층해류간 상관계수가 0.7 이상이었다. 원 자료를 보간하기 위해 관측 자료공분산(C), 지역화한 공간평균 공분산($C^G_{sm}$), 지수함수를 이용한 맞춤 평균공분산($C_{ft}$)을 사용하였다. 최적보간이 결측 구간을 채우고, 관측 자료의 시계열 중에서 뾰족하게 튀어나온 비정상적인 자료 부분을 억제하였으며, 그 결과 보간한 유속 자료의 분산은 원 자료의 분산보다 작았다. 공간적 자료획득률이 70% 이상(이하)일 때, $C^G_{sm}$ ($C_{ft}$)를 이용하면 C를 이용한 경우에 비해 보간 오차가 상대적으로 작았다.

  • 북동 멕시코 만에서 particulate organic carbon(POC)의 시/공간적 변화를 조사하기 위하여, 1997년 11월부터 2000년 8월까지 총 9번의 관측이 이루어 졌으며, 같은 기간 동안 위성자료(해색, 표층수온, 해면고도이상, 표층바람)와 주요 강들 의 유출량이 조사되었다. POC 농도는 내 대륙붕과 미시시피 하구 역에서 높은 값을 (>100 $mg/m^3$) 나타내고 대륙붕과 대륙사면으로 가면서 감소된다. POC의 경년 변화는 상대적으로 1997과 1998년(El $Ni\tilde{n}o$)이 1999과 2000년(La $Ni\tilde{n}a$) 보다 상대적으로 증가되어 나타난다. 이런 현상은 미시시피강 및 다른 주요 강들에 영향을 주는 강우량 변화에 따른 담수 유 입의 변화와 직접적으로 연관되어 있으며, 강우량 변화는 ENSO 현상과 같은 세계 기후변화와 관련이 있는 것으로 사료 된다. 북동 멕시코 만 연안으로 유입되는 주요 강들의 방류량은 초봄에 증가되어 여름과 가을에 감소되지만, 공간적으로 확장된 높은 농도의 POC 분포는 여름 조사기간에서 관측되고, 낮은 농도 및 제한된 확산은 가을과 초 봄 관측에서 나타 난다. 여름철 동안 상대적인 강의 유출량은 봄에 비하여 현저하게 감소하지만, 증가된 표층수온은 수층을 강하게 성층화 시키고 표층에서 부력을 증가시킨다. 이런 조건에서 고농도의 POC를 함유하는 저염수는 상부 대륙사면까지 확장되고 이 는 Loop Current와 Loop Current Eddies의해서 조절된다. 봄과 가을 동안 유출량은 보통이거나 이상을 보이지만, 증가된 바람과 낮은 표층수온으로 인하여 수직적 혼합을 유발하고 이는 높은 농도의 POC를 내 대륙붕에 제한 시키는 것으로 사료된다.

  • The resistive switching behaviors of Pt nanodisk on Nb-doped SrTiO3 single-crystal have been studied with conductive atomic force microscopy in ultra-high vacuum. The nanometer sizes of Pt disks were formed by using self-assembled patterns of silica nanospheres on Nb-doped SrTiO3 single-crystal semiconductor film using the Langmuir-Blodgett, followed by the metal deposition with e-beam evaporation. The conductance images shows the spatial mapping of the current flowing from the TiN coated AFM probe to Pt nanodisk surface on Nb:STO single-crystal substrate, that was simultaneously obtained with topography. The bipolar resistive switching behaviors of Pt nanodisk on Nb:STO single-crystal junctions was observed. By measuring the current-voltage spectroscopy after the forming process, we found that switching behavior depends on the charging and discharging of interface trap state that exhibit the high resistive state (HRS) and low resistive state (LRS), respectively. The results suggest that the bipolar resistive switching of Pt/Nb:STO single-crystal junctions can be performed without the electrochemical redox reaction between tip and sample with the potential application of nanometer scale resistive switching devices.

  • We report a top-down approach based on atomic force microscopy (AFM) local anodic oxidation for the fabrication of the nano-pattern field effect transistors (FETs). AFM anodic oxidation is relatively a simple process in atmosphere at room temperature but it still can result in patterns with a high spatial resolution, and compatibility with conventional silicon CMOS process. In this work, we study nano-pattern FETs for various cross-bar distance value D, from ${\sim}0.5\;{\mu}m$ to $1\;{\mu}m$. We compare the optical characteristics of the patterned FETs and of the reference FETs based on both 2-dimensional simulation and experimental results for the wavelength from 100 nm to 900 nm. The simulated the drain current of the nano-patterned FETs shows significantly higher value incident the reference FETs from ${\sim}1.7\;{\times}\;10^{-6}A$ to ${\sim}2.3\;{\times}\;10^{-6}A$ in the infrared range. The fabricated surface texturing of photo-transistors may be applied for high-efficiency photovoltaic devices.
