This paper examined the role of social workers in the redistribution policy process in Korea, based on the materials of case studies on the Korean redistribution policy. The findings and assertions in this paper are as follows: In the Korean redistribution policy process clients could not fully reflect their interests, because they were lack of the power resources such as money, knowledge, time, social status, etc. The process was initiated by the President and bureaucrats who were not oriented to social welfare. As a result, the redistribution policy in Korea has not been well-developed in terms not only of the policy for clients, but also of the policy for social integration. In the policy process, somebody is needed that issues the policy problem, watches the agenda setting process, the polcy making process and the implementation process in order to keep the interests of the have-nots. I assert that a social worker have taken these roles in the field of the redistribution policy process, because he/she is an expert equipped with professional knowledge and skills about social action.

Intact measurement of leaf water content was attempted using the transmission of beta radiation. Prior to the experiments, two tested plants, rice and soybean, were grown in 1/5000a wagner pot. The moisure ratio of plant leaves were measured with the beta radiation transmission method using a G-M detector and $^{99}$ Tc as the beta ray sou-rce. Beta radiation transmission showed a tendancy to increase with the passage of time after leaf cutting. However, it showed a tendancy to decrease with water supply for the lack of water. A positive correlation was found between the leaf water content and beta radiation transmission. The mutiple regression analysis about leaf water content was obtained that the coefficient of partial regression for beta radiation transmission was much higher(rice; -0.863, soybean; -0.904) than that for specific leaf area(rice; 0.007, soybean: 0.004).

The filamentous cyanobacterium Anabaena is capable of both photosynthesis and nitrogen fixation which probably facilitated its incredible adaptation and proliferation in freshwater environments. A small gene, patS, was found to block nitrogen fixing cells from developing which resulted in death of Anabaena in the absence of combined nitrogen sources. We analyzed the DNA sequences in the vicinity of the patS gene by using a codon usage program and detected no codon bias other than the patS open reading frame. Three overlapping cosmids that contain the patS gene were identified, and the presence of other known heterocyst-controlling genes was examined. The patS expression in response to nitrogen starvation was analyzed at the level of transcription and translation by using Northern blot analyses and lacZ-reporter-gene fusion experiments, respectively. The patS expression increased rapidly (within 12 hours) upon the removal of combined nitrogen from the media.

With the progress of medical treatment techniques of bleeding control, dental care of the patient with hemophilia has become more convenient. So many surgical treatments can be performed with out-patient. 2 cases of intraoral surgical treatment of children, one with hemophilia 3, sever, the other with hemophilia A, severe. While the former was treated under general anesthesia, the latter was treated under local anaesthesia. There are principles : 1. When a patient with hemophilia need dental treatment, the dentist must consult to his physician, pediatrician, or hematologist before dental treatment. 2. When the dentist make a treatment plan, there should be consideration of the general condition, cooperation of the patient and risk of the treatment needed. 3. Minimize the number of times of coming for dental treatment so that reduce the times that need replacement therapy of coagulation factor. And during the treatment, dentist should care for infection and bleeding.

Methanol assimilating bacterium, Pseudomonas sp. ILS-003 was used to investigate the optimum conditions for the production of $poly-{\beta}-hydroxybutyric$ acid from methanol. For PHB production, the optimum initial pH was 6.4 and the optimum temperature was $30^{\circ}C$. Also the optimum methanol concentration was found to be 1.0%(v/v). In the PHB production, $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ was the most effective nitrogen source and the optimum concentration was 0.8 g/l, which was eqivalent to 17.4 in C/N ratio. Also, deficiency of the 2 valence metal ions in the medium had stimulating effect on PHB accumulation. Under the optimum substrate concentration, successive feeding of 0.25%(v/v) methanol was the most effective on PHB production. Under the optimum conditions, 1.94 g/l of PHB and 2.78 g/l of dry biomass were produced in 96 hours, and the yield was 69.8%(w/w).

The various types of PBA/PMMA composite latexes were prepared by $2.1\;{\mu}m$ PBA seeded batch and seeded semi-continuous dispersion polymerization. The morphology of the PBA/PMMA composite latexes by seeded batch process was found to be closely dependant on the weight ratios of methanol/water in polymerization medium and of PBA seed/MMA at the second stage. In general, egg, snowman, confetti, peanut-like nonspherical composite latex particles were formed with increasing amount of water and MMA as a result of the occurrence of the phase separation between PBA seed and PMMA. The morphology of the PBA/PMMA composite latexes by seeded semi-continuous process was controlled by the addition time of MMA, especially, spherical shaped core(PBA)/shell(PMMA) composite latex particles were prepared under the monomer-starved condition at the second stage.

The State Soil Geographic (STATSGO) database is a valuable source for assessment of soil properties at a state level. Using GIS techniques, eight physical soil properties were extracted from the database, including available water capacity, clay content, soil depth, slope, depth to water table, drainage, texture, and permeability. The influences of these soil properties on drought severity, which was estimated by NDVI departures from normal, were determined over western-central Kansas. Study results showed that seven soil properties had significant relationships with drought severity with correlation coefficients, ranging from -0.89 to 0.85. Thermal emission signals from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) had a significant relationship with drought severity expressed by NDVI departure from normal and represented spatial progression of drought over time well. High thermal signals, indicating high soil moisture deficit, emerged in the western region and their spatial distribution changed over time. Different sets of soil factors influenced drought severity among early-drying and late-drying areas.

This paper deals with the combustion characteristics of flue gas in infared mobile heaters. The experimental work has been performed to obtain the concentration levels and combustion characteristics of flue gas with varying chamber size and room temperature. The experimental results showed that oxygen depletion sensor device was operated at the oxygen concentration level of $18.3\%$ for all the chamber size. The combustion characteristics of oxygen and carbon dioxide show a linearity After 10 minutes the combustion property of carbon monoxide occurs at random without a level of oxygen and carbon dioxide in closed space of the heater. In these results, it is very important to prevent incomplete combustion through a sufficient ventilation, and accident prevention with a reduction of the oxygen and diffusion of toxic carbon monoxide.

The origins of beaches at Byeonsan Peninsular, as a pocket type, are classified to a sand barrier type and wave-cut type. The beaches had developed by the deposition of the silt and clay layers on the 10m height from sea level in the inner bay during climax era of postglacial transgression. At that time, some sands had blown toward the inland hills to form aeolian deposits. After postglacial sea-level stabilization, sometimes, there has been the negative budget of beach materials. Recently, beaches have been transformed by human impact such as construction of Saemangeum sea-wall, especially in the Byeonsan and Gosapo beaches being close to the sea-wall. So the speed of tidal currents become slower and comparatively depositoinal activity stronger. And the level of chemical weathering has been higher. In Byeonsan beach, the ratio of coarse sand decreased with higher ratio of finer materials and by beach erosion dissected runnels developed, running parallel to the coastline. In Gosapo beach, supply of suspended materials are increased through the Garyeok drainage gate, the sands tend to be finer.
