A detector for monitoring carbon monoxide (CO) in ambient air by nondispersive infrared (NDIR) spectroscopy has been developed and investigated its sensitivity and stability. The essential parts of the absorption cell are three spherical concave mirrors so as to improve the sensitivity by increasing the light path length in the cell. The radius and center of curvature of mirrors and position in the cell was calculated by computer simulation in order that the light path length may be 16m into the 50cm cell. The number of traversals and optical path properties were confirmed by laser beam alignment in transparent absorption cell. The photoconductive type lead selenide (PbSe) was used as CO sensing material, which was cooled to increase the responsibility by thermoelectric cooling method. The detection limit and span drift of the developed CO detector was 0.24ppm and 0.03ppm(v/v) respectively.

An application of the optoacoustic detection method to investigate the catalytic effect of a perovskite, $Gd_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_{3-y}$ (x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75) system, in the oxidation reaction of CO is described. The optoacoustic signals Of $CO_2$ produced from the oxidation reaction were measured for differing x values in $Gd_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_{3-y}$. By monitoring optoacoustic signals with respect to the time, the concentration ratios of CO and $O_2$, and the temperature, the kinetic information on the catalytic properties of the perovskite for CO oxidation reaction can be obtained. The effect of Sr substitution in $Gd_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_{3-y}$ has been found to show the maximum catalytic effect at x = 0.25 and the substantial increase in catalytic activity at temperatures above 200$^{\circ}C$. It demonstrates that the optoacoustic detection method allows the investigation of the integrated catalytic effect not only for the oxidation reaction of CO, but also for many reactions, in general, by continuously and directly detecting the species associated with the reactions.

The black pine bast scale (BPBS), Matsucoccus thunbergianae (Homoptera: Margarodidae), is one of the most serious insect pests of Japanese black pine (Pinus thunbergiana) in Korea. The density of BPBS varies by tree, branch, and location, making it difficult to monitor them. This study investigated to find a monitoring method for distribution and occurrence of BPBS on Japanese black pine using the yellow sticky trap. The density of male BPBS on sticky trap and nymphs from the branch of Japanese black pine was highly correlated in various surveyed sites. The number of male BPBS that attracted to the yellow sticky traps was higher in upper crown than the lower crown of P. thunbergiana but this was not statistically significant. The density of BPBS nymphs increases with the increase of the diameter of the branch, but the differences were not significant from 1 to 2.5 cm. BPBS was highly distributed in bottom-faced branch than the upper-faced branch of P. thunbergiana. Therefore, we suggest, the yellow sticky trap for the monitoring of BPBS and when examining the nymph density in branch, it is recommended that the bottom-faced branch of the 2-2.5 cm diameter branch be examined.

Characteristics and changes of groundwater qualify were investigated in a riverbank filtration area at Daesan-myeon, Changwon City, Korea. The total dissolved solids (TDS) in groundwater samples collected in October were much less than that in March, indicating the mixing with recharged water from precipitation, as well as the changes of dissolved oxygen profiles at monitoring wells from March to October. Redox processes at depths appeared to trigger Fe and Mn contamination of groundwater in riverbank deposits. Amorphous oxyhydroxides md carbonate minerals such as $MnCO_3$ were probably the reactive phases for dissolved Fe and Mn, respectively. Groundwater contamination by nitrate-nitrogen $(NO_3-N)$ was controlled by the redox processes and subsequent denitrification at the sampled depths. Distribution of $NO_3-N$ concentrations at monitoring wells suggested that the nitrate contaminants were originated from agricultural facilities on the riverbank deposits. Some of monitoring wells, DS-2, D-2, DS-3, SJ-1, and SJ-3, were only partially penetrated into the sand/gravel aquifer, and subsequently, could not fully function to detect the water quality changes for the pumping wells. Proper measures, with regulating agricultural activities in the riverbank deposits, should be carried out to prevent groundwater contamination of the riverbank filtration area.

A diode laser sensor system based on absorption spectroscopy techniques has been developed to measure $CO_2$ concentration and temperature non-intrusively in high temperature combustion environments using a 2.0 ${\mu}m$ DFB(Distributed Feedback) laser. Two optics was fabricated in pig-tail fashion and all optical components were implemented in a single box. The evolution of measurement sensitivity was done using test cell by changing sweep frequency and $CO_2$ concentration. Gas temperature was determined from the ratio of integrated line strengths. Species concentration was determined from the integrated line intensity and the measured temperature. The result show that the system has 2% error in wide operation frequency range and accuracy of $CO_2$ concentration was about 3%. The system was applied to measure temperature and concentration in the combustion region of a premixed $CH_4$ +air triangular flame. The measurement results of gas temperature agreed well with thermocouple results. Many considerations were taken into account to reduce optical noise, etalon effect, beam steering and base line matching problem. The evaluations results and actual combustion measurement demonstrate the practical and applicability for in-situ and real time combustion monitoring in a practical system.

Resistivity monitoring data at embankment dams are affected by the seasonal temperature variation. Especially when the seasonal temperature variation is large like Korea, the temperature effects may not be ignored in the longterm resistivity monitoring. Therefore, temperature effects can make it difficult to accurately interpret the resistivity monitoring data. In this study, through analyzing the time series of ground temperature collected at an embankment dam, ground temperature variations are calculated approximately. Then, based on the calculated temperature profile with depth, the inverted resistivity model of the embankment dam is corrected to remove the temperature effects. From these corrections, it was confirmed that the temperature effects are significant in the upper, superficial part of the dam, but can be ignored at depth. However, temperature correction based only on the temperature distribution in the dam body cannot remove the temperature effect thoroughly. To overcome this problem, the effect of temperature variation in the reservoir water seems to be incorporated together with the air temperature variation.
