This paper is concerned with the development and application of a stochastic model for winter air-temperature of Seoul area. The annual and interannual flucturations of the regression trend, periodicity and dependence of the air-temperature are analyzed based on the data during the past 30 years(1959-1989). A statistical procedure for using the stochastic model to predict the air-temperature is proposed. Some statistical characteristics of winter air-temperature including unusual air-temperature and Samhansaon are also discussed.

Modeling the statistical autocorrelations in spatial data is often achieved through the estimation of the variograms, where the selection of the appropriate valid variogram model, especially for small samples, is crucial for achieving precise spatial prediction results from kriging interpolations. To estimate such a variogram, we traditionally start by computing the empirical variogram (traditional Matheron or robust Cressie-Hawkins or kernel-based nonparametric approaches). In this article, we conduct numerical studies comparing the performance of these empirical variograms. In most situations, the nonparametric empirical variable nearest-neighbor (VNN) showed better performance than its competitors (Matheron, Cressie-Hawkins, and Nadaraya-Watson). The analysis of the spatial groundwater dataset used in this article suggests that the wave variogram model, with hole effect structure, fitted to the empirical VNN variogram is the most appropriate choice. This selected variogram is used with the ordinary kriging model to produce the predicted pollution map of the nitrate concentrations in groundwater dataset.

To obtain basic information for precision agriculture, spatial variability of rice growth condition was evaluated in 100m ${\times}$100m paddy field. The rice growth condition of four hundred locations in the field were investigated to analyze the spatial variability of their properties ; SPAD, plant length and tiller number. Geostatistical analysis was carried out to examine within-field spatial variability using semivariograms and kriged maps as well as descriptive statistics. Descriptive statistics showed that the coefficient of variation for SPAD, plant length, and tiller number exceeded 5.70 %, suggesting a relatively high variability. Geostatistical analysis indicated a high spatial dependence for all the properties except for the second tiller number. The range of spatial dependence was about 20 m for SPAD, plant length, and tiller number. Based on the results of spatial dependence, kriged maps were prepared for the properties to analyse their spatial distribution in the field. The results reflected the history of field management. In conclusion, the need for site-specific field management and possibility of precision agriculture were demonstrated even in an almost flat paddy field.

VaR(Value at risk) is a measure of market risk management and needs to be estimated for multiple distributions. In this paper, Copula functions are used to generate distributions of multivariate random variables. The dependence structure of random variables is classified by the exchangeable Copula, fully nested Copula, partially nested Copula. For the earning rate data of four Korean industries, the parameters of the Archimedean Copula functions including Clayton, Gumbel and Frank Copula are estimated by using three kinds of dependence structure. These Copula functions are then fitted to to the data so that corresponding VaR are obtained and explored.

The puropose of this study was to investigate the relationships between four aspects of clothing behavior ana marital adjustment. Marital adjustment was measured with the Spaniel's Marital Adjustment Scale. The questionnaire measuring clothing behavior consisted of items designed to assess dressing for self, dressing for others, self-concept regarding clothing and dependence in clothing. This questionnaire was selected and revised from inventories of such researchers as Pasnak, Sin, Lee, Park and Creekmore. This questionnaire was administered to 269 home makers in Seoul. Statistical analyses utilized in this study included correlation coefficients and $X^2$ test. The results were as followes: 1. Marital adjustment showed significant and positive relationships with dressing for self, dressing for others, ana self-concept regarding clothing. 2. Marital adjustment was negatively correlated to dependence in clothing.

In this study, we estimated the topside scale height of plasma density (Hm) using the Swarm constellation and ionosondes in Korea. The Hm above Korean Peninsula is generally around 50 km. Statistical distributions of the topside scale height exhibited a complex dependence upon local time and season. The results were in general agreement with those of Tulasi Ram et al. (2009), who used the same method to calculate the topside scale height in a mid-latitude region. On the contrary, our results did not fully coincide with those obtained by Liu et al. (2007), who used electron density profiles from Arecibo Incoherent Scatter Radar (ISR) between 1966 and 2002. The disagreement may result from the limitations in our approximation method and data coverage used for estimations, as well as the inherent dependence of Hm on Geographic LONgitude (GLON).

An internet addiction measure(Park et al., 2001) and an asocial behavior measure(K. J. Lee, 1997) were administered to 232 6th-grade students. Statistical analyses were by mean-difference scores and t-test. Results showed that all aspects of internet addiction(preoccupation, compulsive use, relapse, tolerance/dependence and impediments in daily life) were related to both the inner asocial behaviors of depression, social withdrawal and over-anxiety and the external asocial behaviors of aggressiveness, delinquency and hyperactivity. The only exception was that tolerance/dependence was not related to delinquency. Boys addicted to the internet were more socially withdrawn, aggressive, delinquent and hyperactive than girls. From the results, it can be suggested that internet education should be carried out from the elementary educational level.

Surface phase transition is known to be observed at the system that there exists a strong attractive potential between particles adsorbed. This study presents a dependence of the surface phase transition on strong attractive force using a simple occupation statistical method. It was found that the system exhibits a phase transition from the vacuum phase into the population phase and the critical pressure also increases with the temperature. This fact indicates that these results explain well qualitatively the surface phase transition.

Most of the research on discrimination and classification analysis has been directed to the situation where the data consist of independent observations. However, it is often the case in practice that a dependence structure between objects does exist, in particular, for the time series data. This article is handling such a case and is concerned with the problem of classifying new object when the dependence can be modelled by a discrete time series via conditional autologistic transition probability.

Attempts are being made to investigate temperatures dependence of minimum ignition energy (MIE) based on concept of quantity of heat and thermal ignition theory. Regression equations for predicting MIE by means of temperature variations on the basis of statistical and mathematical methods are proposed. This study is undertaken to learn what proposed method is satisfactory hydrocarbons(propane and pentane). The proposed method has been tested and compared sucessfully with previously reported data in various journal.
