본 연구에서는 중국 북동지역에서 발생하는 산불에 의한 생체연소 배출물이 장거리 수송으로 한국의 미세먼지 질량농도에 미치는 영향을 WRF-Chem 모델을 활용하여 분석하였다. 2020년 4월 4-7일에 한국은 중국 북동지역의 생체 연소 배출물과 더불어 중국 동부지역의 인위적 배출과 중국 북부와 몽골에서 발생한 황사의 영향을 함께 받고 있었다. 인위적 배출과 황사가 혼재된 대기오염 상황에서 zero-out 방법을 활용하여 생체연소 배출물을 분류하고 미세먼지 장거 리 수송 기여도를 분석하였다. 또한, 광역적인 생체연소 배출물의 분포에 따라 한반도 주변의 육지와 해양에 대한 복사 에너지 수지를 분석하였다. 2020년 4월 5-6일에는 한국의 하루평균 미세먼지 질량농도에 대한 생체연소 배출물의 장거리 수송 기여도가 60%로 산출되었다. 더불어 한반도 주변에 광역적으로 분포하는 생체연소 배출물의 영향으로 육지와 해양의 순 복사 플럭스는 음의 값을 나타내었다. 그러나 2020년 4월 7-8일에는 중국 동부지역에서 발생한 인위적 오염 물질이 생체연소 배출물에 더해지면서 한국의 미세먼지 질량농도는 4월 5-6일보다 증가하였으나 생체연소 배출물의 기 여도는 45% 이하로 감소하였다. 또한, 생체연소 배출물의 영향이 줄어들면서 순 복사 플럭스는 양의 값을 나타내었다.

The extended slip-weakening model was investigated by using a compiled set of source-spectrum-related parameters, i.e. seismic moment Mo, S-wave velocity Vs, corner-frequency fc, and source-controlled high-cut frequency fmax, for 113 shallow crustal earthquakes (focal depth less than 25 km, MW 3.0~7.5) that occurred in Japan from 1987 to 2016. The investigation was focused on the characteristics of stress drop, radiation energy-to-seismic moment ratio, radiation efficiency, and fracture energy release rate, Gc. The scaling relationships of those source parameters were also investigated and compared with those in previous studies, which were based on generally used singular models with the dimensionless numbers corresponding to fc given by Brune and Madariaga. The results showed that the stress drop from the singular model with Madariaga’s dimensionless number was equivalent to the breakdown stress drop, as well as Brune’s effective stress, rather than to static stress drop as has been usually assumed. The scale dependence of stress drop showed a different tendency in accordance with the size category of the earthquakes, which may be divided into small-moderate earthquakes and moderate-large earthquakes by comparing to Mo = 1017~1018 Nm. The scale dependence was quite similar to that shown by Kanamori and Rivera. The scale dependence was not because of a poor dynamic range of recorded signals or missing data as asserted by Ide and Beroza, but rather it was because of the scale dependent Vr-induced local similarity of spectrum as shown in a previous study by the authors. The energy release rate Gc with respect to breakdown distance Dc from the extended slip-weakening model coincided with that given by Ellsworth and Beroza in a study on the rupture nucleation phase; and the empirical relationship given by Abercrombie and Rice can represent the results from the extended slip-weakening model, the results from laboratory stick-slip experiments by Ohnaka, and the results given by Ellsworth and Beroza simultaneously. Also the energy flux into the breakdown zone was well correlated with the breakdown stress drop,   and peak slip velocity of the fault faces. Consequently, the investigation results indicate the appropriateness of the extended slip-weakening model.

In this study, energy budget was estimated to produce an efficient artificial seed. And it needs to enhance fisheries productivity of sandfish, A. japonicus. In order to estimate energy budget of the sandfish, A. japonicus juvenile fed on nonriched Artemia nauplii (NA) and the enriched Artemia nauplii (EA), of sandfish were reared at constant condition of seawater temperature of natural temperature (NT) and heated temperature (HT). During the reared period, energy used by the reared juveniles were calculated from estimates of data on ingestion, growth, oxygen consumption, nitrogen excretion and energy content. Energy budget of NT-NA, NT-EA, HT-NA and HT-EA were represented as 100C=66.49G+21.28M+0.78F+1.44U, 100C=67.54G+21.40M+9.39F+1.67U, 100C=66.86G+22.66M+8.01F+2.47U and 100C=67.06G+22.96M+7.70F+2.28U. The assimilation efficiency estimated NT-NA, NT-EA, HT-NA and HTEA were represented as 87.78%, 88.94%, 89.52% and 90.02%. Gross growth efficiency estimated NT-NA, NT-EA, HT-NA and HT-EA were represented as 66.49%, 67.54%, 66.86% and 67.06%. Net growth efficiency estimated NT-NA, NT-EA, HT-NA and HT-EA were represented as 75.75%, 75.94%, 74.68% and 74.49%. In this results, two ways could be considered to produce an efficient artificial seed of sandfish. To hasten the growth of sandfish juvenile, heated seawater (HT) and enriched Artemia nauplii (EA) should be inputted to reared condition. And to increase the energy efficiency, natural seawater (NT) and enriched Artemia nauplii (EA) should be inputted to reared condition.
