From mid-1890's, biometricians and Mendelians debated over Darwin's evolutionary theory. Biologist W. Weldon and Mathematician K. Pearson were leaders of the biometric school and biologist W. Bateson led Mendelian school. In this paper topics of the controversy such as causation vs. correlation, frequency distribution are considered. And in relation to the tradition of British statistics, we consider the philosophy of Karl Pearson revealed in this debate. Besides many statistical methods and concepts by Karl Pearson, the newly born mathematical statistics got a new journal Biometrika, a department in university, and a school of researchers from this controversy.

The aim of this research is to estimate the values of biological kinetic parameters of pharmaceutical wastewater for understanding biochemical properties. Maximum specific growth rate (${\mu}m$), yield coefficient (Y), and half-velocity coefficient (KS) were determined using oxygen uptake rate (OUR), and the results were 10.49/day (0.437/hr), 0.655, and 38.89 mg/L, respectively. Measured ${\mu}max$ by nonlinear regression of Monod equation was 10.63/day (or 0.443/hr), and this value was similar with above result. These parameters may be used to increase efficiency of pharmaceutical wastewater treatment and to determine amount of oxygen needed to removal BOD and dissolved oxygen in activated sludge process.

In this study, biological activity in activated sludge process for pharmaceutical wastewater was analyzed by using respirometer. For various amounts of BOD loadings. oxygen uptake rate was measured and kinetic paramelers were evaluated. By repetition of experiments, optimal operating conditions (eg. MLSS. BOD loadings. oxygen concentration, etc) were decided for the enhancement of activated sludge process.

양액재배에 있어서 배양액 중에 있는 질소, 칼륨, 인, 칼슘, 마그네슘 등 식물 영양성분의 함유량을 항상 알맞게 유지시키는 일은 매우 중요하다. 아울러, 양액의 산도(pH)와 용존산소량(dissolved oxygen;DO)도 식물 생장에 큰 영향을 미치기 때문에 적절히 유지하지 않으면 안된다. 양액의 상태를 항상 작물 생육에 알맞게 유시키기 위해서는 먼저 양액의 조성과 관계가 있는 물리량을 정확히 측정할 필요가 있다. 특히 양액관리를 자동화하기 위해서는 정확도와 함께 신속하고도 간편한 측정방법이 필요하다. 양액 상태에 관한 주요 측정항목에는 전기전도도(electric conductivity : EC), 산도(pH), 용존산소량(DO)이 있다.

초기생애단계의 일본송사리를 실험어류로 사용하여 TCDD와 PCB 126의 생물농축정도를 비교 측정하였고, TCDD와 PCB 126의 체외 배설에 대한 동태학적 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 생물농축실험은 초기생애단계의 새끼치어 및 어린 물고기에 TCDD와 PCB 126을 여러 농도로 물에 용해시켜 96시간 동안 정체된 상태로 폭로시킨 후 생물농축계수(BCF)와 지방-표준화한 생물농축계수(BCF$_{L}$)를 측정하였다. TCDD와 PCB 126의 일본송사리 초기생애단계의 새끼치어 및 어린 물고기에서 측정된 96-h BCF값 및 96-h BCF$_{L}$값은 폭로된 농도와 상관없이 비슷하게 나타나 반면, 생체크기가 클수록 그 값은 작게 나타났다. 일본송사리 새끼치어, 어린 물고기, 성어의 생체 내 총 지방함량은 각각 5.7, 4.2, 4.6%로 측정되었다. 체외배설 동태실험은 어린 물고기에 TCDD와 PCB 126을 3가지 농도롤 물에 용해시켜 96시간 동안 정체된 상태로 폭로시킨 후, flow-through장치로 공급되는 맑은 물로 옮겨 42일간 사양하면서 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 42일에 생체 내 TCDD와 PCB 126 잔류량을 측정하여 분석하였다. 배설은 1차 반응속도론적으로 이루어졌으며 한 구획모형보다 두 구획모형이 더 적합한 것으로 분석되었다. 두 구획모형을 사용한 분석에서 TCDD와 PCB 126의 체외배설 반감기(t$\frac{1}{2}$) 및 배설속도상수($\beta$)는 각각 27.2일과 32.3일 및 0.025/d와 0.021/d로 측정되었다.

생물학적 또는 비생물학적 이유에 의해 성장에 나쁜 영향을 받아 식물이 스트레스를 받게 되면 여러 가지 증상이 나타날 수 있다. 예를 들면, 수분 공급이 부족하거나 잎 표면의 수분 함량의 평형이 깨어지면 광합성과 증산이 줄거나, 기공이 닫혀 잎 표면의 온도가 증가한다. 또한 잎이나 식물 군락으로부터 방사되는 에너지의 양이나 질이 변할 수도 있다. (중략)

Transpiration is the movement of water into the atmosphere through leaf stomata of plant, and it accounts for more than half of evapotranspiration from the land surface. The measurements of transpiration could be conducted in various ways including eddy covariance and water balance method etc. However, the transpiration measurements of individual trees are necessary to quantify and compare the water use of each species and individual component within stands. For the measurement of the transpiration by individual tree, the thermometric methods such as heat dissipation and heat pulse methods are widely used. However, it is difficult and labor consuming to maintain the transpiration measurements of individual trees in a wide range area and especially for long-term experiment. Therefore, the sharing of sapflow data through database should be useful to promote the studies on transpiration and water balance for large spatial scale. In this paper, we present sap flow database, which have Granier type sap flux data from 18 Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) since 2011 and 16 (Quercus aliena) since 2013 in Mt.Taehwa Seoul National University forest and 18 needle fir (Abies holophylla), seven (Quercus serrata), three (Carpinus laxiflora and C. cordata each since 2013 in Gwangneung. In addition, the database includes the sapling transpiration of nine species (Prunus sargentii, Larix kaempferii, Quercus accutisima, Pinus densiflora, Fraxinus rhynchophylla, Chamecypans obtuse, P. koraiensis, Betulla platyphylla, A. holophylla, Pinus thunbergii), which were measured using heat pulse method since 2018. We believe this is the first database to share the sapflux data in Rep. of Korea, and we wish our database to be used by other researchers and contribute a variety of researches in this field.

Rhodopsin is a membrane protein with seven transmembrane region which contains a retinal as its chromophore. Although there have been recently reports on various photo-biochemical features of rhodopsins by a wide range of purifying and measurement methods, there was no actual comparison related to the difference of biochemical characteristics according to their physical environment of rhodopsins. First, proteorhodopsin (PR) was found in marine proteobacteria whose function is known for pumping proton using light energy. Second one is Anabaena sensory rhodopsin (Nostoc sp.) PCC7120 (ASR) which belongs to eubacteria acts as sensory regulator since it is co-expressed with transducer 14 kDa in an operon. In this study, we applied two types of rhodopsins (PR and ASR) to various environmental conditions such as in Escherichia coli membranes, membrane in acrylamide gel, in DDM (n-dodecyl-${\beta}$-D-maltopyranoside), OG (octyl-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside), and reconstituted with DOPC (1,2-didecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine). According to the light-induced difference spectroscopy, rhodopsins in 0.02% DDM clearly showed photointermediates like M, and O states which respond to the different wavelengths, respectively and showed the best signal/noise ratio. The laser-induced difference spectra showed the fast formation and decay rate of photointermediates in the DDM solubilized samples than gel encapsulated rhodopsin. Each of rhodopsins seemed to be adapted to its surrounding environment.

In this study, it was observed to oxygen uptake rate(OUR) on microbes in activated sludge process. OUR was showed to 43, 55, and $64\;mgO_2/L/hr$ when inoculated microbes mass were 3, 5, and 10%(v/v%). In additon to oxygen was consumed to $4{\sim}42\;mgO_2/L/hr$ as changed substrate concentration. Also, we were measured kinetics coefficient in order to know growth tendency. It was concluded to maximum growth rate$(\;{\mu}\;_{max})$, $2.7\;day^{-1}$, yield coefficient, 0.655, and half-velocity coefficient, 36.11 mg/L.

The feeding habits of oriental bonito (Sarda orientalis) were studied using 288 specimens collected in the coastal waters of Jeju Island, Korea from January to December 2015. Oriental bonito is pelagic piscivore that consumes mainly fishes especially Engraulis japonicus and Scomber japonicus. Its diet also includes small quantities euphausiids, amphipods and cephalopods. Oriental bonito showed ontogenetic changes in feeding habits. Although fishes were the primary food consumed by all size groups, the ratio of fishes was slightly increased as body size increase. There also was a significant relationships between mean prey number and weight according to size class and season.
