Among various contributors to urban heat islands, anthropogenic heat flux (AHF) plays a particularly important role during cold waves due to increased energy demand. In this study, we examined the urban weather characteristics of the Seoul Metropolitan Area, as simulated by an urban canopy model, through an AHF sensitivity experiment for the region during a cold wave. We used the Weather Research and Forecasting-Urban Canopy Model (WRF-UCM) with prescribed AHF values for January 2017 to conduct the experiment. Sensitivity experiments were conducted with AHF scaled to 0, 1, 2, and 4 times the baseline value. The model underestimated the air temperature and relative humidity by about 1 o C and 20%, respectively, and overestimated the wind speed by 1.5ms1 without AHF. Doubling the anthropogenic heat flux led to a notable decrease in the root mean square error and mean bias error, particularly for temperature. These results suggest that, to more accurately reproduce urban weather conditions, larger amounts of anthropogenic heat flux should be prescribed during extreme cold events.

齐 is a simplified form of 齊. This thesis examines the evolutionary process and usage patterns of the character 齐, concluding that it exhibits both orthographic and popular forms. These two variants coexisted in ancient documents, though their frequency of use varied significantly. Moreover, the dominant glyph of 齐 differed across dynasties. From the Qing Dynasty through the Republic of China era to the Peoples Republic of China, the official standardisation of 齐 underwent a developmental trajectory from 齊 to 齐, which can be categorised into three distinct phases: the incipient period, the exploratory period, and the finalisation period.

This study presents the implementation of a direct power control (DPC) system based on virtual flux for an eco-friendly ship utilizing a low voltage DC distribution within a Simulink environment. The proposed system regulates the DC bus voltage and the instantaneous power of the generator. The electrical load of the generator is classified into three levels (low, medium, and high) and subjected to ±10% variations. Under these conditions, the characteristics of the DC bus voltage and current, instantaneous active and reactive power as well as the voltage and current of the generator, are thoroughly analyzed. The simulation results indicate that the DC bus voltage and instantaneous active and reactive power remain stable and well-regulated at their set-points despite load fluctuations. Furthermore, the voltage and current of the generator, consistently maintain sinusoidal waveforms and remain in phase. These findings validate the effectiveness of the proposed virtual flux-based direct power control strategy, demonstrating its suitability for DC distribution applications in maritime vessels.

본 연구에서는 침지형 평판 분리막 생물반응기에 대해 막간차압(TMP)을 효과적으로 제어 가능하는 사인파형 투 과유속 연속운전(SFCO) 모드를 개발하였다. SFCO 모드의 분리 성능을 평가하기 위해 분리막 생물반응기(MBR)의 표준 작 동 방식인 여과/이완(F/R) 모드와 비교, 평가하였다. 공칭 기공 크기가 0.15 μm인 두 개의 동일한 평판형 정밀여과막 모듈을 활성 슬러지 용액에 침지하여 사인파 유형, 투과유속 및 운전시간에 따른 TMP 변화를 측정하였다. 결과적으로 SFCO 모드는 F/R 모드에 비해 낮은 TMP를 유지하여 분리막 오염을 줄이는 데 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 특히 사인파형의 최대 투과유속 이 15~20 L/m2·h 범위에서 막오염을 최소화하는 데 효과적이었으며, 이는 기존 MBR의 투과유속 운전 범위로서 그 응용이 기대된다.

This paper introduces a simple and reliable photometric calibration method to extract Hα line flux from narrowband images. The equivalent width of the Hα line (EWHα) is derived using two- and simplified three-filter methods. Synthetic photometry of CALSPEC stars demonstrates the dependency of EWHα on the V − R color, described by a skewed Gaussian function within −0.1 < V − R < 0.7. Systematic errors of the two- and three-filter methods are analyzed under 0%–10% R-band flux contamination. Although the three-filter method underestimates EWHα by 10%, it exhibits less scatter compared to the two-filter method. The simplified three-filter method was validated with the Landolt SA 107 field and surpasses the two-filter method in terms of precision and accuracy. Additionally, applying our method to V960 Mon yields EWHα consistent with high-resolution spectroscopic results.

It was found in this study that fluorinated microporous carbon aerogels with enhanced hydrophobicity could be successfully prepared by direct fluorination to separate water-in-oil emulsions at high flux. The fluorinated carbon aerogel (F-CA) surface treated by the fluorination method had a water contact angle of 151.2° and could immediately absorb oil. In addition, the unique network structure of F-CA and its hydrophobicity allow surfactant-stabilized water-in-oil emulsions to be effectively and simply separated under gravity without requiring external forces such as vacuum or pressurization. The network structure of F-CAs consists of randomly connected spherical particles that form fluorinated permeation channels, which induce high flux during emulsion separation. The F-CA spherical particles have nanosized pores and high hydrophobicity, which repel and trap water droplets to increase the separation purity. Therefore, F-CA exhibited excellent performance, such as high filtrate purity (up to 99.9954%) and flux (up to 11,710 L/m2h). Furthermore, F-CA reusability was demonstrated as it did not lose its hydrophobicity and maintained its performance even after repeated use. This type of aerogel has great potential to be utilized throughout various environmental fields, including oil remediation.

Ecosystems provide various ecosystem services based on biodiversity. However, biodiversity is facing crises due to anthropogenic factors such as pollution, land use change, and climate change. Threats to biodiversity can significantly impact the provision and stability of ecosystem services, extending beyond simple species decline. To address threats to biodiversity, it is crucial to evaluate how anthropogenic factors affect not only biodiversity but also ecosystem services. This study aims to investigate the energy flux in a post-mining area based on the biodiversity of soil ecosystems and assess its suitability as an evaluation metric. It was observed that as the concentration of the primary pollutant, arsenic, increased, both the biomass of soil organisms and energy flux decreased. Furthermore, soil ecosystem multifunctionality may be negatively affected by pollution. These findings contribute to understanding the impact of pollution on soil ecosystem biodiversity and energy flux in post-mining areas and provide important information for more effective conservation and management of ecosystem services.
