In order to investigate flight number of ascospores of the wheat scab fungus as a primary inoculum, the experiment was undertaken at three localities including Suweon during the two years 1979 to 1980. Ascospore fllight of the fungus was begun at the first part of April, and amounts of flight number of ascospores were varied by different localities. It showed a tendency that large number of ascospore fllight was proportionally resulted by higher amounts of rainfall. As a result, a high positive correlation was obtained between flight number of ascospores of the fungus and amounts of rainfall.

This study has compared the different types of forest fires(unburned, crown fire, ground fire) and the degree of vegetation recovery at Samcheuk-si, Gangwon-do by assessing the biomass and net primary production from July 2007 through July 2010. The research showed that the average biomass of unburned site(Un), crown fire site(C-1), crown fire site(C-3), ground fire site(G-2) were $181.20{\pm}5.39$, $62.04{\pm}4.38$, $131.09{\pm}14.38$, $63.39{\pm}2.72ton{\cdot}ha^{-1}$, respectively. And the research showed that the average net primary production of unburned site(Un), crown fire site(C-1), crown fire site(C-3), ground fire site(G-2) were $4.17{\pm}0.56$, $3.27{\pm}1.56$, $11.51{\pm}0.53$, $2.10{\pm}0.31ton{\cdot}ha^{-1}{\cdot}yr^{-1}$, respectively. Quercus mongolica $DH_{10}$(Diameter at the 10cm tree height) growth rate at each plot was compared to the crown fire site(C-1) in the annual average $1.21{\pm}0.55mm{\cdot}yr^{-1}$ at the speed of the fastest growth follows; showed crown fire site(C-3), ground fire site(G-2), unburned site(Un) appeared in the order. And that showed the growth rate of height was highest in the $15.43{\pm}4.57cm{\cdot}yr^{-1}$ at crown fire site(C-3), then the crown fire site(C-1), and ground fire site(G-2), and lowest in the unburned site(Un).

교통수단의 발달과 경제활동이 활발해짐에 따라 많은 오염문제가 발생하였는데, 특히 대도시를 중심으로 증가한 차량과 경제활동에 필요한 에너지 소비의 증대로 대기오염의 심각성은 더욱 커지게 되었다. 일반적으로 대기중 부유 분진의 발생원은 토사의 재 비산이나 해염 입자, 화분 등과 같은 자연적인 발생원과 산업시설, 소각시설, 가정난방, 수송수단의 이용 등의 인간활동에 의한 인위적인 배출원으로 대별되는데, 인위적인 배출원의 영향은 자연적 발생원에 비해 그 영향이 보다 폭넓고 중요하게 다루어지고 있다. (중략)

Analysis of fly ashes from the MSW incinerators was carried out using XRF, ICP-MS and ICP-AES. It was found that the major elements of fly ash were Ca, K, Na, Si, Al, S, Cl and O by the XRF analysis. The XRD spectra showed that the fly ashes were mainly consisted with the chlorides, hydroxides, carbonates and also oxides of former elements. For the determination of minor elements such as Zn, Pb, Cu, Cr, and Cd, we used ICP-AES and ICP-MS after microwave digestion and the results were compared with the result of XRF.

The extraction of aluminum from coal fly nsh wa studied using H,SO, and CaF, as leachants Aluminum was effectively extracted by HF formed &om the reaction of H,SO, and CaF, which decomposed the mullite in fly ash. The cffeas of H,SO' and CaFi concentration, reaction temperature, and reacliou time on aluminum extraction were investigated. 97% of aluminum was extracted by 4 M H:SO, and 0.5 M CaF, at 106$^{\circ}$C for 10 houci.

The burned pine forest may change into the grassland with bushes. However, it is likely that forest insects immigrated from the adjacent forest may be temporally abundant in the burned forest. This study was conducted to observe the immigration of insects for a year since forest fire. Beetle fauna in burned forest was compared with that in unburned forest in Goseong in Gwangwon province where the big fire was occurred and burned 3,762 ha of forest in 1996. The 381 individuals of 60 beetle species was collected from the burned forest, whereas the 370 individuals of 63 beetle species from the unburned forest. There was no difference in abundance and species richness of beetle fauna between burned forest and unburned forest. Most of abundant beetle species were collected from burned forest as well as unburned forest. Seasonal occurrence of the insects in burned forest were similar to those in unburned forest. These indicate active immigration of insects in burned forest in early season after fire. The beetles dwelling on vegetation were more actively immigrated into burned forest compared with those foraging in ground.

Safety concern is one of the most important parameters in the design of building demolition by explosive blasting, Accidents were sometimes reported due to the flying chips of fragmented materials In building demolition work in urban area. Laboratory experiments were performed to investigate the failure behavior of reinforced concrete pillars under blast loading and to develop an effective protection technique. Sixteen reinforced concrete pillars were constructed. The failure behavior and the flying chip velocities were observed by means of a high-speed camera. Protection scheme was designed and the effects of several protection materials were investigated. Two kinds of non-woven fabrics and wire net were tested as protection materials. The results showed that reinforcing bar was one of the important factors to determine specific charges, and that mesh size of wire net and tied-up method affected the protection of flying chips. Control of gas effects is also a key to the control of flying chips. It was recommended to use both wire net and non-woven fabrics as primary and secondary protection materials. Such protection scheme was successfully applied to the explosive demolition of apartment buildings.

This research has been done to investigate influence of soil physical and chemical properties on forest environmental change by fired pine forest in Koseong, Kangwondo. The sample sites were divided by not-fired sites(NF), not-cutting site after fired(FNC), cutting and planting sites after fired(FCP) and cutting and not-planting sites after fired(FC). Soil texture of whole sites was sandy clay loam. Sand content of NF top soil were lower than those of sub soil and clay content were higher, while FNC, FCP and FC sand content of top soil were higher than those of sub soil. Total porosity didn't differ between the sites. Coarse porosity and permeability had the increasing order as NF> FNC> FCP> FC, but fine porosity and bulk density had the opposite trends. Because forest fire removed the vegetation and then soil erosion was accelerated, forest environmental changes by forest fire greatly degraded soil porosity and permeability which were indices for forest water retention, so that soil physical properties were deteriorated. Both top and sub soil pHs of NF and FNC were higher than those of FCP and FC. Organic matter content and total nitrogen content of top and sub soils were high in order as NF> FNC> FCP> FC. Cation exchange capacities and exchangeable cation(K+, Na+, $Ca^2$+, $Mg^2$+) content in top soils were higher than those in sub soils, and in order as NF> FNC> FCP> FC, to be compared by the sites. Those mean that forest fire result from the erosion of top soil layers.

The specific radioactivity concentrations in the coal fly ash obtained from heat producing stations in Korea were analyzed and its radiological hazard for reuse in construction purpose was evaluated. The concentrations of uranium isotopes in the real fly ash measured by TBP solvent extraction method and $\alpha$-spectrometer were found to be about 116.1 Bq $kg^{-1}$ for $^{238}U$, 5.01 Bq $kg^{-1}$ for $^{235}U$, and 121.2 Bq $kg^{-1}$ for $^{234}U$, respectively. The activity ratio of $^{234}U/^{238}U$, in the coal fly ash was in $1.04\;{\pm}\;0.03$, which is similar to that of uncontaminated Korean soil in natural conditions (1.14). The specific radioactivities of $^{226}Ra,\;^{232}Th,\;and\;^{40}K$ in the coal fly ash were also determined using $\gamma$-spectrometer with a HPGe detector The results showed that $^{226}Ra,\;^{232}Th,\;and\;^{40}K$ in the coal fly ash were in concentrations of $101.7{\sim}113.9$, $39.5{\sim}54.2\;and\;315.0{\sim}990.6$ Bq $kg^{-1}$, respectively. With the specific radioactivities obtained from $\gamma$-spectrometric measurements of the coal fly ash, its radiological hazard for reuse was evaluated. The result showed that the radioactivity of the coal fly ash was in permissible level.
