In this paper several methods for retriving appropriate values of effective soil moisture contents from natural soil surfaces are introduced and compared each other. The soil medium has usually a nonuniform moisture profile; i.e., relatively dry at the top layer and relatively wet at the bottom layer. The effective soil moisture represents the quantitative value of soil moisture of the inhomogeneous soil medium in an average sense. A simple method is an arithmetic averaging of soil moisture values obtained from several layers of a soil surface. Otherwise, the penetration depths can be computed from a homogeneous and an inhomogeneous soil surfaces and compared in order to obtain the effective soil mosture. The other method is to obtain the effective soil moisture by comparing the reflectivities from both of a homogeneous and an inhomogeneous surfaces. Those methods are compared and the reflectivity technique is examined in more detail since the rader scattering is dominated by the reflectivity instead of the penetration.

This study was to evaluate sorption and biodegradation rate affecting the natural dissipation of chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) in surface soil. To show the effect of sorption and biodegradation on the natural dissipation of 1,1,1-trichloroethane (TCA), trichloroethylene (TCE) and tetrachloroethylene (PCE), three types of vial experiments were employed; (1) sterilized, (2) non-sterilized, (3) non-sterilized/substrate enriched. Also three moisture contents was applied to find the moisture effect in each vial; (1) wilting point (12%, w/w), (2) field capacity (29%, w/w), (3) saturation (48%, w/w). The results suggested that keeping the soil moisture content at field capacity was desirable for TCA and TCE natural dissipation in the vial study.

The mating systems of natural populations of Vicia tetrasperm in Korea were determined using allozyme analysis. The result suggests that V. tetrasperm is low rates of outcrossing or mix-mating outcrossing (self-fertilization, s < 0.5). At the population levels, the values of inbreeding coefficient of ten populations in Korea varied from 0.131 to 0.176, giving an average 0.154. For ten natural populations, multi-locus estimates of outcrossing (tm) was 0.333 across fifteen polymorphic loci, with individual population values ranging from 0.269 to 0.423. The differences between the tm and ts values were not close to zero (tm - ts > 0.154), indicating that biparental inbreeding was significant in the loci. The reason for relatively low outcrossing rates of some populations could be attributed to extensive consanguineous mating and isolation of flowering mature plants. Although heterozygote excess was observed in one natural population, most populations exhibited varying degrees of inbreeding and heterozygotes deficit. Thus, selection against homozygotes operated in the progeny populations throughout the life cycle.

수분 이용효율(Water Use Efficiency, WUE)은 식생이 흡수한 수분 중 증발산에 이용한 비율로, 육상생태계의 수문학적 순환 및 탄소 순환의 기능을 측정할 수 있는 중요한 지표이다. 또한 이는 특정 지역의 기후 조건이나 토지 피복과 같은 다양한 요인에 따라 변할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 한반도에서 2010년부터 2014년까지의 기후 요인(강수, 기온)과 토지 피복에 따른 WUE의 변화를 살펴본다. MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 기반 총일차생산성(Gross Primary Productivity, GPP), 증발산량(Evapotranspiration, ET), 잎면적지수(Leaf Area Index, LAI)와 Willmot의 기상자료 등 대상지역에 대한 격자 자료를 사용한다. 구체적으로 숲, 초원, 농지와 같이 다양한 토지 피복 조건에 대한 월간 및 연간 WUE(=GPP/ET)를 산정하고, 이의 LAI나 기후 조건(강수, 기온)과의 관계를 분석하고자 상관성 및 요인 분석을 진행한다. 기후 조건 및 토지 피복 조건을 고려한 15년간 한반도에서의 WUE의 변화에 대한 분석은 앞으로의 수자원 관리 및 산림 정책에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Formulations which are dispersed in water are often used in color cosmetics because they are characterized by no powder flying, not sticky, and high adherence while giving a light feeling of use. However, little research has been considered on the effect of the pigment on the above formulations used in color cosmetics. In this study, experiments were conducted to measure and analyze the effect of pigments on the formulation of pigments, organic pigments, and pearl polish, which are mainly used in the manufacture of color cosmetics, on appearance changes, pH changes, and photometric stability. Carmine or ferric ferrocyanide coated titanium dioxide mica-based pigments were not suitable for use due to poor photostability, with colors appearing on the surface from low viscosity formulations. Organic pigments had a good photostability of 1% of the formulation which are dispersed in water, but were not suitable for use because they came out of color on the water surface and did not spread well due to the clumping of powders. The titanium dioxide mica system pigments coated with pearl polish, inorganic pigments, and iron oxide were suitable for use due to their excellent appearance and optical stability in the formulation. Furthermore, the pH of all samples distributed by each pigment seems to be within the range of 3.0 to 9.0, which is suitable for cosmetic applications. This is expected to help manufacture color cosmetics with a stable water dispersible formulations by selecting and using stable pigments in anticipation of the behavior of pigments in the formulations.

Microwave remote sensing can help monitor the land surface water cycle, crop growth and soil moisture. A ground-based polarimetric scatterometer has an advantage for continuous crop using multi-polarization and multi-frequencies and various incident angles have been used extensively in a frequency range expanding from L-band to Ka-band. In this study, we analyzed the relationships between L-, C- and X-band signatures and soil moisture content over the whole soybean growth period. Polarimetric backscatter data at L-, C- and X-bands were acquired every 10 minutes. L-band backscattering coefficients were higher than those observed using C- or X-band over the period. Backscattering coefficients for all frequencies and polarizations increased until Day Of Year (DOY) 271 and then decreased until harvesting stage (DOY 294). Time serious of soil moisture content was not a corresponding with backscattering over the whole growth stage, although it increased relatively until early August (R2, DOY 224). We conducted the relationship between the backscattering coefficients of each band and soil moisture content. Backscattering coefficients for all frequencies were not correlated with soil moisture content when considered over the entire stage ($r{\leq}0.50$). However, we found that L-band HH polarization was correlated with soil moisture content (r=0.90) when Leaf Area Index (LAI)<2. Retrieval equations were developed for estimating soil moisture content using L-band HH polarization. Relation between L-HH and soil moisture shows exponential pattern and highly related with soil moisture content ($R^2=0.92$). Results from this study show that backscattering coefficients of radar scatterometer appear effective to estimate soil moisture content.

물리적인 건식 방법으로 소각 및 매립되는 생활계 폐플라스틱에 포함된 이물질을 제거하는 공정을 확립 연구를 수행하였다. 수집 운반되는 생활계 폐플라스틱 시료의 발생 장소, 위치 및 시간에 따라 포함된 이물질 종류가 다르고 수분의 함량에 있어 차이가 많이 있어 투입되는 시료에 대한 일차 이물질 분석이 필요하다. 이물질 분리 공정은 운반 $\rightarrow$ 파쇄 $\rightarrow$ 선별 분리(자력, 와류, 스크린) $\rightarrow$ 저장의 순서로 진행하였으며 파쇄시 흙 종류가 많이 포함된 경우에는 -0.8cm로 파쇄할 경우 효과적이나 일반적으로 -1.2cm 정도로 파쇄하여 이물질을 선별 분리하여도 이물질이 함유량이 3%이하이며, 회수율은 97% 이상이었다.

The effects of intra-particle composition on the adhesive properties and water dispersity of acrylic emulsion type pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs) were investigated. In the case of PSA having uniform intra-particle composition, the higher holding strength made the water dispersity lower. By changing the intra-particle composition in hard core/soft shell type, however, it was possible to get PSAs showing both high holding strength and water dispersity. When the weight ratio of MAA/AA is 4/1, high holding strength, but low initial tack and very low water dispersity were observed in both cases of higher contents of (AA+MAA) in core and shell area. When the weight ratio of MAA/AA is 1/4, however, higher water dispersity and lower holding strength were indicated in the case of higher contents of (AA+MAA) in shell area.

ZnCl$_2$ 주사용 전지계는 특히 중부하연속방전이 우수하였으며 그 이유로는 농도분극현상이 적음에 기인되며 이는 $Zn^{++}$이 본계에서는 쉽게 이동함에 있다고 간주되며 그 $Zn^{++}$ 이온의 바른 이동은 이론치보다도 다량사용하게 되는 물의 역할에 기인되고 방전에 직접 필요한 수분량과, 기타의 목적 즉 반응 침전물의 재용해, ion carrier 등으로서 이용되는 수분량은, MnO$_2$와의 비율 및 방전 부하크기에 따라 다르다.
