Objective: We wanted to describe the findings of simple pulmonary eosinophilia with using 18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET). Materials and Methods: We analysed the findings of 14 patients who underwent thoracic computed tomography (CT) and PET, and then they were subsequently proven to have simple pulmonary eosinophilia. PET studies were performed in four patients with malignancy to evaluate for cancer metastasis, and PET scans were also done in 10 healthy subjects who underwent volunteer cancer screening. The PET scans were evaluated by using the maximum standardized uptake values (SUVs). The subjects' CT findings also were reviewed and correlated with the PET findings. Results: A total of 42 nodules were detected on the CT scans. There were single nodules in three patients and multiple nodules in 11 patients (mean number of nodules: 3, range: 1 10, mean diameter: 9.5 mm 4.7). Twelve of 42 (28.6%) nodules showed FDG uptake and their mean maximum SUV was 2.5 1.6 (range: 0.6 5.3). Five of six solid nodules showed FDG uptake (2.2 1.1, range: 0.9 3.6), six of 11 semisolid nodules showed FDG uptake (3.1 1.8, range: 0.6- 5.3) and one of 25 pure ground-glass opacity nodule showed a maximum SUV of 0.8. The maximum SUVs of seven nodules in five patients were greater than 2.5. The maximum SUVs were significantly different according to the nodule types (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Simple pulmonary eosinophilia commonly causes an increase in FDG uptake. Therefore, correlation of the PET findings with the CT findings or the peripheral eosinophil counts can help physicians arrive at the correct diagnosis of simple pulmonary eosinophilia.

For water resource management, the design flood is calculated using the flood frequency analysis technique and the rainfall runoff model. The method by design flood frequency analysis calculates the stochastic design flood by directly analyzing the actual discharge data and is theoretically evaluated as the most accurate method. Actual discharge data frequency analysis of the measured flow was limited due to data limitations in the existing flood flow analysis. In this study, design flood frequency analysis was performed using the measured flow data stably secured through the water level-discharge relationship curve formula. For the frequency analysis of design flood, the parameters were calculated by applying the bayesian inference, and the uncertainty of flood volume by frequency was quantified. It was confirmed that the result of calculating the design flood was close to that calculated by the rainfall-runoff model by applying long-term rainfall data. It is judged that hydrological analysis can be done from various perspectives by using long-term actual flow data through hydrological survey.

미계측유역의 유출량 모의는 수문학 분야에서 필수적인 사항이다. 강우-유출 모형을 이용하여 신뢰성 있는 유출량을 모의하기 위한 핵심사항은 강우-유출 모형의 매개변수를 추정하는 것이다. 하지만 현재 우리나라는 불충분한 수문자료로 인해 매개변수 추정에 어려움이 존재한다. 본 연구의 목표는 불확실성 반영을 위한 Bayesian 통계기법 기반의 강우-유출 모형의 매개변수를 지역화 하는 것이다. 그 방법은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 본 연구는 세계적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 Sacramento 강우-유출 모형에 Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo 기법을 연계한 Bayesian Sacramento 강우-유출 모형을 사용하여 계측유역을 대상으로 13개 매개변수를 최적화하고 각 매개변수의 사후분포를 도출하였다. 둘째, 매개변수와 유역특성인자 사이에 회귀특성을 얻기 위해 다중선형회귀분석을 적용하여 유역특성을 고려한 지역화 매개변수를 결정하였다. 다중회귀분석을 통하여 산정된 지역화 매개변수를 계측유역에 전이하여 유출량을 모의 후 통계적 효율기준인 N-S계수, 일치계수 및 상관계수를 사용하여 지역화 매개변수 검증을 수행하였다. The simulation of natural streamflow at ungauged basins is one of the fundamental challenges in hydrology community. The key to runoff simulation in ungauged basins is generally involved with a reliable parameter estimation in a rainfall-runoff model. However, the parameter estimation of the rainfall-runoff model is a complex issue due to an insufficient hydrologic data. This study aims to regionalize the parameters of a continuous rainfall-runoff model in conjunction with a Bayesian statistical technique to consider uncertainty more precisely associated with the parameters. First, this study employed Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo scheme for the estimation of the Sacramento rainfall-runoff model. The Sacramento model is calibrated against observed daily runoff data, and finally, the posterior density function of the parameters is derived. Second, we applied a multiple linear regression model to the set of the parameters with watershed characteristics, to obtain a functional relationship between pairs of variables. The proposed model was also validated with gauged watersheds in accordance with the efficiency criteria such as the Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency, index of agreement and the coefficient of correlation.

초단기 홍수예보를 위한 주요자료로서 최근 기상레이더의 중요성이 크게 부각되고 있다. 기상레이더는 넓은 지역에 걸쳐 실시간으로 강우현상 감시가 가능하며 지상우량계로는 파악이 불가능한 미계측유역을 통과하는 강우장의 이동 및 변화 파악이 가능한 장점이 있다. 본 연구는 강우장의 공간적 분포와 레이더 강우세포를 추적하는 강우장 예측 해석방안을 수립하였다. 이를 위해 강우장의 공간적인 이동을 고려하기 위해 강우장의 바람장 이류(advection) 패턴을 추출하여 각 강우세포가 가지는 이동방향 및 속도를 고려한 강우장 추적기법을 통하여 강우장을 예측하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 개발된 기상레이더 강우장 상관분석 기법을 활용한 초단기강우예측 결과는 집중호우시 홍수 예 경보를 위한 수문모형의 입력자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다. Weather radar rainfall data has been recognized for making valuable contributions to short-term flood forecasting and management over the past decades. There are several advantages to better monitoring rainfall in ungauged area compared to ground-based rain gauges with which spatial patterns of the rainfall are not effectively identified. Hence, this study aims to develop a new scheme to forecast spatio-temporal rainfall field. The proposed model was based on an advection scheme to track wind patterns and velocity. The results showd a promising forecasting skill with quantitative and qualitative measures. It was confirmed that the forecasted rainfall may be effectively used an input data for a distributed hydrological model.

이 논문에서는 KOMPSAT-2 스테레오 영상의 PAN밴드에 존재하는 미세한 크기의 Y시차가 발생하는 원인을 규명하고 이를 개선하기 위한 일련의 실험 및 분석과정을 보고한다. 분석결과, Y시차가 발생하는 원인이 KOMPSAT-2 영상을 생성할 때 PAN밴드를 MS밴드와 일치하도록 Warping처리하는 과정에서 발생한 Resampling 오차 때문인 것으로 판단할 수 있었다. 또한 엄밀한 PAN밴드의 Warping 방식을 적용하여 Resampling 오차를 제거함으로써 Y 시차문제가 상당부분 개선될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 KOMPSAT-2 영상 PAN밴드에서 관측된 밝기값 밀림현상도 엄밀한 Warping처리를 통해서 개선될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서, 보다 엄밀한 Warping기법이 KOMPSAT-2 영상처리과정에 적용될 수 있다면 KOMPSAT-2 영상의 기하정확도 및 복사정확도가 많이 개선될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다. This paper reports experiments and analysis work done to find out the cause of Y parallex for stereo pairs of KOMPSAT-2 images and means to improve the Y parallex problem. We could conclude that the Y parallex problem was caused by resampling errors of KOMPSAT-2 PANchromatic bands, induced by the process of warping PANchromatic band with reference to multispectral bands. We could also conclude that a rigorous warping process could improve resampling of KOMPSAT-2 PANchromatic band and remove the Y parallex problem significantly. We also confirmed that a rigorous warping process could also remove blocky brightness patterns present on KOMPSAT-2 PANchromatic band. Therefore, by implementing more rigorous warping process within KOMPSAT-2 scene generation procedures, KOMPSAT-2 geometric and radiometric quality will be improved.

김태정,이동률,권현한,Kim, Tae-Jeong,Lee, Dong-Ryul,Kwon, Hyun-Han 한국수자원학회 2017 한국수자원학회논문집 Vol.50 No.12

최근 국지성 집중호우 및 급격한 기상변화로 인해 돌발홍수와 같은 기상재해의 발생빈도가 증가함에 따라 고해상도의 기상레이더 강수자료를 사용한 수공학 분야의 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 기상레이더 강수자료를 활용하는 목적은 기상레이더 강수자료가 제공하는 공간분포를 최대한 활용하는데 있다. 본 연구에서는 고해상도 기상레이더 강수자료의 공간적 특성을 유지하면서 지상 강수자료의 양적특성을 극대화할 수 있는 조건부 합성기법을 보간법에 따라 분석 하였다. 기상레이더 강수자료와 지상 강수자료를 조건부 합성하기 위하여 Kriging, 역거리 가중법 및 Spline 보간법을 적용하였다. 조건부 합성결과는 지상 강수패턴을 현실성 있게 재현하였으며 추가적으로 보간법에 적용되지 않은 강수자료와 모형검증을 수행한 결과 조건부 합성을 통하여 생산된 공간적 강수정보의 수문학적 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. The increased frequency of meteorological disasters has been observed due to increased extreme events such as heavy rainfalls and flash floods. Numerous studies using high-resolution weather radar rainfall data have been carried out on the hydrological effects. In this study, a conditional merging technique is employed, which makes use of geostatistical methods to extract the optimal information from the observed data. In this context, three different techniques such as kriging, inverse distance weighting and spline interpolation methods are applied to conditionally merge radar and ground rainfall data. The results show that the estimated rainfall not only reproduce the spatial pattern of sub-hourly rainfall with a relatively small error, but also provide reliable temporal estimates of radar rainfall. The proposed modeling framework provides feasibility of using conditionally merged rainfall estimation at high spatio-temporal resolution in ungauged areas.

The recent unusual climate and extreme weather events have frequently given unexpected disaster and damages, facing difficulties in the management of water resources. In particular, climate change could result in intensified typhoons, and this would be the worst case scenario that can happen. The primary objective of this study is to identify the patterns of typhoon-induced precipitation and the associated synoptic pattern. This study focused on analyzing precipitation patterns over the South Korea using historic records as opposed to a specified season or duration, and further investigates the potential connection with heavy rainfall to synoptic patterns. In this study, we used the best track data provided by the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center of Japan for 40 years from 1973 to 2012. The patterns of the typhoon-induced precipitation were categorized into four groups according to a given typhoon track information, and then the associated synoptic climatology patterns were further investigated. The results demonstrate that the typhoon-induced precipitation patterns could be grouped and potentially simulated according to the identified synoptic patterns. Our future work will focus on developing a short-term forecasting model of typhoon-induced precipitation considering the identified climate patterns as inputs. 최근 빈번하게 발생하는 이상기후 현상은 수자원관리에 많은 어려움을 주고 있으며 예상치 못한 기상관련 재난피해를 야기하고 있다. 특히, 기후변화에 의해 점차 태풍의 세력이 강력해짐에 따라 태풍은 위험기상으로 인지된다. 본 연구의 주요목적은 태풍으로 인하여 발생하는 강우특성 및 종관기후학적 분석을 수행하는 것으로 일본 지역특별기상센터(Regional Specialized Meteorological Center Tokyo Typhoon Center, RSMC)에서 제공하는 1973년부터 2012년의 6시간 간격 최적경로(best track) 자료를 사용하여 우리나라에 상륙한 태풍사상만을 대상으로 태풍의 상륙 지속시간(내습시간)을 총 4개의 시간구간으로 구분하여 각 내습유형에 따른 강우특성 및 종관기후학적 분석을 수행하였다. 본 연구를 통한 결과는 태풍의 진로 및 이동속도를 예측 가능한 현 시점에서, 우리나라 태풍내습시 내습유형에 따른 홍수방어 및 사전대피와 같은 재해관리 측면에서 매우 유용한 정보를 제공할 것으로 사료된다. 향후 연구로서 본 연구를 통해서 확인된 기상학적 패턴을 활용하여 단기 태풍강수량 모의기법 개발이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

일반적으로 하천의 유량은 댐과 같은 수공구조물에 의해 조정된 유량으로 수자원계획을 위해서 필요한 자연유량과는 차이가 크다. 수자원계획을 수립함에 있어 자연 유입량 정보는 댐 운영과 수문분석을 위한 필수적인 정보이다. 본 연구에서는 댐 유역 일유입량 모의기법을 위한 통합 모형을 개발하였다. 첫째, 장기 강우-유출 모형의 입력강우자료로 사용하기 위하여 평균 및 중앙값과 같은 통계적 모멘트를 효과적으로 재현하고 극치 강우량 재현에 유리한 불연속 Kernel-Pareto 확률분포 기반의 강우모의기법을 통하여 강우모의를 수행하였다. 둘째, SAC-SMA 장기 강우-유출 모형의 매개변수를 Bayesian MCMC 기법을 통하여 최적화하여 산정된 매개변수의 사후분포를 활용하여 댐 유입량 시나리오 도출하였다. 댐 유역을 대상으로 개발된 모형을 평가한 결과 자연유량과 통계적으로 유사한 특성을 가지는 시나리오를 생성할 수 있었으며, 물수지 분석 등과 같은 수자원계획을 위한 시나리오로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. Generally, a natural river discharge is highly regulated by the hydraulic structures, and the regulated flow is substantially different from natural inflow characteristics for the use of water resources planning. The natural inflow data are necessarily required for hydrologic analysis and water resources planning. This study aimed to develop an integrated model for more reliable simulation of daily dam inflow. First, a piecewise Kernel-Pareto distribution was used for rainfall simulation model, which can more effectively reproduce the low order moments (e.g. mean and median) as well as the extremes. Second, a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo scheme was applied for the SAC-SMA rainfall-runoff model that is able to quantitatively assess uncertainties associated with model parameters. It was confirmed that the proposed modeling scheme is capable of reproducing the underlying statistical properties of discharge, and can be further used to provide a set of plausible scenarios for water budget analysis in water resources planning.

레이저 처리후 임프란트 표면 변화에 관한 연구

김태정,임성빈,정진형,Kim, Tae-Jung,Lim, Sung-Bin,Chung, Chin-Hyung 대한치주과학회 2002 Journal of Periodontal & Implant Science Vol.32 No.3

Various long-term studies have shown that titanium implants as abutments for different types of prostheses have become a predictable adjunct in the treatment of partially or fully edentulous patients. The continuous exposure of dental implants to the oral cavity with all its possible contaminants creates a problem. A lack of attachment, together with or caused by bacterial insult, may lead to peri-implantitis and eventual implant failure. Removal of plaque and calculus deposits from dental titanium implants with procedures and instruments originally made for cleaning natural teeth or roots may cause major alterations of the delicate titanium oxide layer. Therefore, the ultimate goal of a cleaning procedure should be to remove the contaminants and restore the elemental composition of the surface oxide without changing the surface topography and harming the surrounding tissues. Among many chemical and mechanical procedure, air-powder abrasive have been known to be most effective for cleaning and detoxification of implant surface. Most of published studies show that the dental laser may be useful in the treatment of pen-implantitis. $CO_2$ laser and Soft Diode laser were reported to kill bacteria of implant surface. The purpose of this study was to obtain clinical guide by application these laser to implant surface by means of Non-contact Surface profilometer and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) with respect to surface roughness and atomic composition. Experimental rough pure titanium cylinder models were fabricated. All of them was air-powder abraded for 1 minute and they were named control group. And then, the $CO_2$ laser treatment under dry, hydrogen peroxide and wet condition or the Soft Diode laser treatment under Toluidine blue O solution condition was performed on the each of the control models. The results were as follows: 1. Mean Surface roughness(Ra) of all experimental group was decreased than that of control group. But it wasn't statistically significant. 2. XPS analysis showed that in the all experimental group, titanium level were decreased, when compared with control group. 3. XPS analysis showed that the level of oxygen in the experimental group 1, 3($CO_2$ laser treatment under dry and wet condition) and 4(Soft Diode laser was used under toluidine blue O solution) were decreased, when compared with control group. 4. XPS analysis showed that the atomic composition of experimental group 2($CO_2$ laser treatment under hydrogen peroxide) was to be closest to that of control group than the other experimental group. From the result of this study, this may be concluded. Following air-powder abrasive treatment, the $CO_2$ laser in safe d-pulse mode and the Soft Diode laser used with photosensitizer would not change rough titanium surface roughness. Especially, $CO_2$ laser treatment under hydrogen peroxide gave the best results from elemental points of view, and can be used safely to treat peri-implantitis.
