GRS is an effective urban ecology restoration technique that can manage a variety of environmental functions such as ecological restoration, rainwater spill control and island heat effect from a low-impact development standpoint that can be utilized in new construction and retrofits. Recently, quantitative evaluation studies, both domestic and abroad, in the areas related to these functions, including near-earth surface climate phenomenon, heavy rainwater regulation, thermal environment of buildings, have been actively underway, and there is a trend to standardize in the form of technological standards. In particular, centered on the advanced European countries, studies of standardizing the specific insulation capability of buildings with green system that comprehensively includes the green roof, from the perspective of replacing the exterior materials of existing buildings, are in progress. The limitation of related studies in the difficulties associated with deriving results that reflect material characteristics of continuously evolving systems due in part to not having sufficiently considered the main components of green system, mechanisms of vegetation, soils. This study attempts to derive, through EnergyPlus, the effects that the vegetation-related indicators such as vegetation height, FCV, etc. have on building energy load, by interpreting vegetation and soil mechanisms through plant canopy model and using an ecological standard indicator LAI that represent the condition of plant growth. Through this, the interpretations that assume green roof system as simple heat insulation will be complemented and a more practical building energy performance evaluation method that reflects numerical methods for heat fluxes phenomena that occur between ecology restoration systems comprised of plants and soil and the ambient space.

$Cu(In,Ga)_3Se_5$ (${\beta}-CIGS$) has a band gap of 1.35 eV which is an optimum value for high solar-energy conversion efficiency. However, ${\beta}-CIGS$ film was not well characterized yet due to lower efficiency compared to $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$ (${\alpha}-CIGS$). In this work, ${\beta}-CIGS$ films were fabricated by a three-stage co-evaporation of elemental sources with various Se fluxes. As the Se flux increased, the crystallinity of ${\beta}-CIGS$ phase was improved from the analysis of Raman spectroscopy and a deep-level defect was reduced from the analysis of photoluminescence spectroscopy. A Se treatment of the ${\beta}-CIGS$ film at $200^{\circ}C$ increased Ga content and decreased Cu content at the surface of the film. With the Se treatment at $200^{\circ}C$, the cell efficiency was greatly improved for the CIGS films prepared with low Se flux due to the increase of short-circuit current and fill factor. It was found that the main reason of performance improvement was lower Cu content at the surface instead of higher Ga content.

The ocean's response to the Pinatubo and 1259 volcanic eruptions was investigated using an ocean general circulation model equipped with an energy balance model. Volcanic eruptions release gases into the atmosphere which increases the aerosol optical depth and acts to reduce the incoming short-wave radiation. For example, there was a huge volcanic eruption (Pinatubo) in 1991 which reduced the global mean radiative forcing by about 3 W $m^{-2}$. Two numerical experiments were simulated. The first experiment features the Pinatubo eruption and the second experiment simulates the much larger volcanic eruption that occurred in 1259 when the radiative forcing was reduced by 7 times compared to the Pinatubo event. With the reduced radiative forcing due to the Pinatubo eruption at about 3 W $m^{-2}$ and 1259 eruption at about 21 W $m^{-2}$, the global mean sea surface temperature (SST) decreased to its lowest in the second year after each event by about $0.4^{\circ}C$ and $1.6^{\circ}C$, respectively. Sea surface salinity (SSS) increased substantially in the northern North Pacific, northern North Atlantic, and the Southern Ocean. The reduced SST together with SSS increased ocean convection, which yielded an increase in North Atlantic Deep Water, Antarctic Bottom Water, and North Pacific Intermediate Water production and their outflows. The increase in overturning circulation eventually increased the pole-ward ocean heat fluxes. In conclusion, huge volcanic eruptions perturb the ocean substantially and their hallmarks last for more than a decade, confirming the importance of volcanic eruptions in illustrating the decadal-climate variability recorded in the paleoclimate proxy data for the past million years.

In this study, we researched the characteristics of $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ emission of the wastewater treatment (WWT) process in the dairy industry. For flux measurements at the air-water interface, a floating dynamic flow-through chamber was used above the water surface. $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ concentration from the WWT process was measured by NDIR (Non-Dispersive Infrared) Analyser. In the study, $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ fluxes results showed a distinct difference for each WWT process. 60% of the GHG emissions which was the highest percentage were from the equalization tank. Reactor tank was second with 27% of the total emissions from the WWT. Aeration tank was third with 12% of the total emissions. The tendency was that the more the wastewater was treated, the less GHGs were emitted. $CH_4$ and $N_2O$ showed the same tendency. This indicates that the concentrations and properties of wastewater could affect the tendency.

CarboKorea and HydroKorea are the domestic projects aiming to improve our understanding of carbon and water cycles in a typical Korean forest located in a complex terrain with a watershed connected to large rivers. The ultimate goal is to provide a nowcasting of these cycles for the whole Peninsula. The basic strategy to achieve such goal is through the inter- and multi-disciplinary studies that synthesize the in-situ field observation, modeling and remote sensing technology. The challenge is the fact that natural ecosystems are nonlinear and heterogeneous with a wide range of spatio-temporal scales causing the variations of mass and energy exchanges from a leaf to landscape scales. Our paradigm now shifts from temporal variation at a point to spatial patterns and from spatial homogeneity to complexity of water and carbon at multiple scales. Yet, a large portion of our knowledge about land-atmosphere interactions has been established based on tower observations, indicating that the development of scaling logics holds the key to the success of CarboKorea and HydroKorea. Here, we review the pioneering work of FIFE (First ISLSCP Field Experiment) on scaling issues in a temperate grassland and discuss the lessons from it for the application to Gwangneung forest site.

Sewage treatment plants located near to large cities emit extremely higher concentration of odorous materials. This study evaluated flux profiles of ammonia emitted from the water surface of sewage treatment plants using a dynamic flux chamber. Also, an ammonia overall mass transfer coefficient and a mass transfer model was developed in order to estimate fluxes of ammonia using environment parameters and the flux from the sewage treatment plants. The developed mass transfer model was evaluated through a fitness analysis. Comparison modeled flux applying empirical overall mass transfer coefficients of ammonia and measured ammonia flux show a high linearity with 0.977. The flux ratio of 1.282 demonstrated highly statistical fitness, also. Modeled flux using the mass transfer model was compared with measured flux. In result, it indicated that empirical overall mass transfer coefficients were similar to measured flux. The mass transfer model using the empirical overall mass transfer coefficient developed in this study was proved to be an easy and effective method to make accurate and precise predictions for ammonia flux discharged from sewage treatment plants.

This study investigates the characteristics of the Gross Moist Stability (GMS) over the tropics. The GMS summarizes the relationship between large-scale entropy forcing due to radiation and surface fluxes and the response of smaller-scale convection. The GMS is able to explain both to where moist entropy is advected by the atmospheric circulation and how deep the moisture flux convergence is in the tropical region. In the deep convective region, positive GMS appears over the warm pool region due to the strong column-integrated moisture convergence and the ensuing export of moist entropy to the environment. The vertical advection of moist entropy dominates over the horizontal advection in this region. Meanwhile, over the eastern tropical ITCZ region, which is characterized by shallow convective area, import of moist entropy by horizontal winds is dominant compared to the vertical moist entropy advection. Future changes in the GMS are also examined using the 22 CMIP5 model simulations. A decrease in the GMS appears widely across the tropics, but its increase occurs over the western-central equatorial Pacific. It is evident that the increased GMS region corresponds to an increased region of precipitation, implying that strengthened convection in the future due to increased entropy forcing exports the enhanced moist energy to stabilize the environment.

지표와 대기간의 에너지 및 수문기상인자들의 교환에 대한 이해는 수자원분야의 연구에 있어서 기초라 할 수 있으며 이를 위하여 Land Surface Mode(LSM)을 활용한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. Noah Land Surface Model (Noah LSM)은 에너지 방정식과 물수지 방정식을 기반으로 한 지면모형으로 수문기상인자들에 대한 모의가 가능하다. 국외에는 Noah LSM을 이용한 다양한 연구사례들이 있으나, 국내에서는 적용사례가 매우 부족하며, 특히 단독으로 Noah LSM을 적용한 사례는 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 Noah LSM의 국내 적용성을 평가하기 위해 해남(HFK)과 광릉(GDK) Korea Flux Network (KoFlux)에서 제공하는 자료를 입력자료로 활용하여 모형 결과를 산출하고, 순 복사량, 잠열, 현열의 결과를 관측자료와 비교 검증하였다. 모형 결과와 관측치를 비교한 결과 회귀분석에서의 상관계수 값이 각 인자 별로 해남은 0.83~099, 광릉은 0.64~0.99로 신뢰할 만한 수준인 것으로 나타났다.

사용된 멀칭자재의 광학적 특성, 작물군락의 형성 등에 의하여 토양표면의 에너지 수지는 달라지며, 이러한 토양표면 에너지 수지의 차이에 의해 변화되는 지중열류가 토양온도 변화의 원인이 된다. 본 연구에서는 일사량, 밀칭표면의 순복사, 지중열류, 멀칭 내외면 온도, 토양온도 등을 연속적으로 측정하였으며, 실측된 자료를 이용하여 토양표면의 에너지 수지 및 지중열류를 추정하여 멀칭처리에 따른 토양온도 변화의 원인을 분석하였다. 감자 출아전인 1998년 8월 30일의 무멀칭처리에서는 지표면의 순복사(10.0 MJ$m^{-2}$${day}^{-1}$ )는 높았지만, 대류에 의한 현열이나 수분증발에 의한 잠열로 대부분의 에너지(9.65MJ m$^{-2}$ day$^{-1}$)가 지면으로부터 빠져나가 토양으로 흐르는 지중열류는 0.36MJ $m^{-2}$${day}^{-1}$ 이었다. 흑색 폴리에틸렌 필름 멀칭에서는 지표면의 순복사는 2.4 MJ $m^{-2}$${day}^{-1}$ 이었지만 멀칭면과 토양표면의 대류에 의한 지표면의 에너지 손실이 1.39 MJ $m^{-2}$${day}^{-1}$ 로 적어져 지중열류는 1.02 MJ$m^{-2}$${day}^{-1}$ 로 무멀칭처리보다 많이 높았다. 종이멀칭처리에서의 지표면의 순복사는 1.30 MJ $m^{-2}$${day}^{-1}$ 로 다른 처리에 비해 낮았고, 멀칭면과 지표면의 대류에 의한 에너지 교환에 의하여 지표면으로부터 1.36 MJ $m^{-2}$${day}^{-1}$ 의 에너지가 손실되어 지중열류는 -0.06 MJ $m^{-2}$${day}^{-1}$ 로 흑색 폴리에틸렌 필름 멀칭이나 무멀칭보다 낮았으며, 특히 주간의 상위층 토양온도가 다른 처리에 비해 많이 낮아졌다. 군락이 형성된 9월 27일의 경우, 멀칭처리에서의 지표면 순복사는 군락이 없는 8월 30일의 경우와 큰 차이가 없었지만 무멀칭처리에서는 군락의 일사 차단으로 순복사가 현저히 낮아졌으며, 흑색 플라스틱 필름 멀칭처리에서는 현열 및 잠열에 의한 손실이 작아 지중열류는 다른 처리에 비해 높았으며, 무멀칭처리에서는 현열 및 잠열에 의한 에너지 손실이 많아 지중열류는 작았다. 이러한 지중열류의 차이에 의해 흑색 플라스틱 필름 별칭처리에서의 지온이 다른 처리에 비해 높아졌고, 종이멀칭처리에서의 지온은 군락이 형성되지 않은 초기에는 무멀칭에 비해 낮았지만 군락이 형성된 후기에는 그 차이가 거의 없었다. 군락의 형성여부와 관계없이 일 최저기온 및 최고기온이 나타나는 시각의 토심에 따른 토양온도의 변화는 비슷한 경향을 보였으며, 일 최고기온이 나타나는 시각에 흑색 플라스틱 필름 멀칭처리에서의 온도는 지표에 가까울수록 급격하게 높았으며, 그 증가추세는 종이멀칭이나 무멀칭에 비해 현저하였다.
