Stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes were analyzed in suspended particulate organic matter, macroalgae and macrobenthic invertebrates in order to determine the importance of primary organic matter sources in supporting food webs of rocky subtidal and intertidal macroalgal beds in the Korean coasts. Investigations were conducted at the inter tidal sites within Gwangyang bay, a semi-enclosed and eutrophicated bay, and the subtidal sites of the east coast, a relatively oligotrophic and open environment, in May and June 2005. Water-column suspension feeders showed more negative $\delta^{13}C$ values than those of the other feeding guilds, indicating trophic linkage with phytoplankton and thereby association with pelagic food chains. In contrast, animals of the other feeding guilds, including interface suspension feeders, herbivores, deposit feeders, omnivores and predators, displayed relatively less negative $\delta^{13}C$ values than those of the water-column suspension feeders and similar with that of macroalgae, indicating exclusive use of macroalgae-derived organic matter and association with benthic food chains. Most the macrobenthic species were considered to form strong trophic links with benthic food chains. In addition, the distribution of higher $\delta^{15}N$ values in macrobenthic consumers and macroalgae at the intertidal sites of Gwangyang Bay than those at the subtidal sites of the east coast suggests that anthropogenic nutrients may enhance the macroalgal production at the intertidal sites and in turn be incorporated into the particular littoral food web in Gwangyag Bay. These results confirm the dominant role of macroalgae in supporting rocky subtidal and intertidal food webs in the Korean coasts.

The establishment of an efficient protocol of plant regeneration from leaf explant cultures of Perilla spp. is reported. Regenerated shoots were obtained from leaf explant cultures on solid MS medium containing different concentrations of cytokinins and auxin. The effect of cytokonin and auxin differed depending on each acession. The combination treatments of high level of cytokinin and low level of auxin was more effective for plant regeneration in Perilla frutescens. The best concentration of sucrose was 3% for regeneration. Of spermidine, spermin and putrescine. treatments, the most effective treatment for plant regeneration was $10\;mg/{\ell}$ spermidine.

Numerical predictions of a fully developed turbulent flow through a square duct ($30mm{\times}30mm$) with twisted tape inserts and with twisted tape plus interrupted ribs are respectively conducted to investigate regionally averaged heat transfer and flow patterns. A rib height-to-channel hydraulic diameter(e/$D_h$) of 0.067 and a lengthto-hydraulic diameter(L/$D_h$) of 30 are considered at Reynolds number ranging 8,900 to 29,000. The interrupted ribs are axially arranged on the bottom wall. The twisted tape is 0.1 mm thick carbon steel sheet with diameter of 28 mm, length of 900 mm, and 2.5 turns. Each wall of the square channel is composed of isolated aluminum sections. Two heating conditions are investigated for test channels with twisted tape inserts and rib turbulators: (1) electric heat uniformly applied to four side walls of the square duct, and (2) electric heat uniformly applied to two opposite walls of the square channel. The results show that uneven surface heating enhances the heat transfer coefficient over uniform heating conditions, and significant improvements can be achieved with twisted tape inserts plus interrupted ribs.

We have investigated microclimatic controls on the spatiotemporal variations of net primary production (NPP) of a rugged forested watershed using the process-based biogeochemical model (BIOME-BGC). To validate the model simulation of water and carbon cycles at the plot scale, we have conducted field survey over deciduous broadleaf forest (DBF) and evergreen needleleaf forest (ENF) since 2000. The modeled values of soil temperature, soil moisture and soil respiration showed high correlation with those from the field measurements. The modeled seasonal changes of NPP showed high correlation with air temperature but no significant correlation with water related parameters. The precipitation frequency turned out to be the best climatic factor to explain the annual variation of NPP. Furthermore, NPP of ENF was more sensitive to precipitation frequency than that of DBF. With changes in vegetation cover and topography, the spatial distribution of NPP was of great heterogeneity, which was negatively correlated with the magnitude of NPP. Despite the annual precipitation of 1,400mm, NPP at the study site was constrained by the amount of water available for the vegetation. Such a modeling result should be verified by the field measurements.

Based on the assumption that film density increases exponentially with exposure in the industrial radiographic film. an equation representing the characteristic curves of industrial radiographic films and a new density-thickness relation are suggested. The accuracy and reliability of the suggested relation has been tested using radiographs of a carbon steel step wedge with known thickness variation by polychromatic X-ray and ${\gamma}$-ray ($Ir^{192}$). The experimental results were well agreed to the proposed relation in the range of film densities from 1.0 to 3.5 and it was more accurate than the conventional relation. It is also found that ${\gamma}$-ray is more effective in this purpose than polychromatic X-ray, which results in variation of effective linear absorption coefficient due to beam hardening effect as thickness increases. Therefore using the equation and experimentally determined parameters the quantitative evaluation of thickness variation is possible and it can be used to evaluate the depth of local corrosion of pressure vessels in plants.

청정에너지원의 수요가 증가함에 따라 에너지원의 공급로의 역할을 하는 강관의 수요가 증가하고 있다. 소재가공 기술의 발전과 함께 경량의 고장력 강재의 적용은 공급로의 역할을 하는 강관의 비용절감 및 자원의 효율적 이용 측면에서 지속적으로 연구 개발을 이어왔다. 이러한 추세에 따라 구조용 또는 라인파이프용 강관에서도 고장력 강재의 적용과 함께 고인성 그리고 용접성의 향상을 위한 다양한 라인파이프용 강재의 개발과 이의 적용이 그간 활발히 진행되어왔다. 용도상 반드시 필요한 특성인 고장력, 고인성, 용접성 등 외에도 다양한 강재의 사용에 따른 제조공정상 즉 용접공정에서 발생될 수 있는 용접부의 기계적 특성 변화에 대한 특성 연구 및 기술 연구가 계속 되어왔다. 주로 강관을 생산하는데 쓰이는 ERW (Electric Resistance Welding) 공정에서도 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. ERW는 높은 생산성과 낮은 제조비용의 장점을 가지고 있으나 용접 후 용접부의 기계적 특성 감소로 인한 단점이 있다. 때문에 기계적 특성향상을 위해 최적의 용접조건에 대해 연구해야 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 4가지 합금강관의 ERW 용접시 용접 입열량의 변화와 용접부의 후열처리를 통한 미세조직의 변화와 기계적 특성에 대해서 고찰하였다. 4강종 시편의 미세조직을 OM, SEM을 통한 분석 이후 인장시험 및 경도시험 등을 통해 기계적 특성을 평가하였다. 대부분의 시편에서 입열량의 증가에 따라 Ferrite 분율이 증가하였고 용접중앙부의 Ferrite 양이 용접경계부 보다 많았다. Ferrite 집중부의 분포가 극명하게 관찰되었던 DP780 (적정) 강종과 미세하게나마 Ferrite 집중부가 존재하였던 K55 (과소, 과대) 강종에서 나란히 경도 하락 현상이 관찰되었다. 이는 강종마다 고유의 Ceq, 합금 중 Mn 농도, 입열량 등에 의한 복합적인 이유 때문으로 판단된다. 탄소가 0.3~0.4 wt% 함유된 중탄소강인 S45C, K55의 경우 용접중앙부와 용접경계부의 페라이트 분율 차이가 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 용접시 열에 의한 탈탄현상으로 인해 나타나는 현상으로 판단된다.

PAN-based activated carbon fibers/phenolic resin matrix composites (ACFCs) were manufactured via molding process with oxidized carbon fabrics (plain-type) and phenolic resin (resole-type) compounded by 70 : 30 wt%. The green body (as molded) was submitted to carbonization (at 100$0^{\circ}C$) in an inert environment and activation (at 700, 800, 900 and 100$0^{\circ}C$) in a $CO_2$ environment. In this work, the influence of activation temperatures was investigated in surface properties, such as pH, acid- and base-values by titration method, and in adsorption properties, i.e., specific surface area and pore structures by BET-method of the composites. Also, the pressure drops of the specimens were calibrated by ASTM. As a result, the activation temperature influenced the surface property of ACFCs. When the activation temperature was higher than 90$0^{\circ}C$, the surface was gradually developed in basic nature. And, the evolutions of specific surface area, total pore volume and pore size distribution of ACFCs could be easily confirmed the dependence on the activation temperature. Among them, well-developed pore structure from adsorption characteristics was changed of the ACFCs activated at 90$0^{\circ}C$. Also, the pressure drop was slightly decreased with increasing the temperature due to increasing the burn-off with heat treatment temperature of ACFCs.

Seven constructed and three natural tidal flats were compared to evaluate state-of- the-art of creation and restoration technology for tidal flats. parameters studied were physico-chemical and biological characteristics of soils and rate of respiration. The natural tidal flats had higher contents of silts, nitrogen and organic matter compared to the constructed ones. The natural ones had reductive Bone below 2 cm whereas the constructed ones had oxidative zone from the surface to below 20 cm. The bacterial population in the soil of the constructed tidal flats was one to two magnitudes lower than that in the natural ones. Biomass of macrobenthos and microbial respiration rate, however, were not different significantly between the natural and the constructed tidal flats. The purification capacity by diatom+bacterial+meiobenthos and macrobenthos in the constructed tidal flats was higher than that in the natural ones due to deeper permeable layer for purification in the constructed tidal flats. There was an exceptional constructed tidal flat with similar physico-chemical and biological characteristics to natural ones. Shearing stress to the surface of the tidal flat by the flow of seawater was as low as that of natural ones. These hydraulic conditions seemed to be a controlling factor on structures and functions of tidal flats. The control of hydraulic condition seemed to be one of the most important factors to create natural-like tidal flats.

부식은 재료와 사용 환경과의 상호작용에 의한 결과로서 일반적으로 두께의 감소와 균열의 발생 및 파손 등의 문제로 나타난다. 특히 사용환경 중에서 해수 분위기는 금속의 부식에 가장 유리한 조건이다. 따라서 해양환경 중 항만이나 조선 및 해양 산업 등에 많이 이용되는 강 구조물은 이에 대응하기 위하여 도장방식이나 음극방식을 사용하고 있다. 여기서 음극방식은 피방식체를 일정전위로 음극 분극하는 원리로써 외부전원을 인가하거나 비전위의 금속을 전기적으로 연결하여 방식하는 방법이다[1]. 한편, 해수 중에서 이와 같은 원리로 음극방식 할 경우에는 피방식체인 강재표면에 부분적으로 칼슘 또는 마그네슘 화합물 등의 생성물이 부착하는 현상을 볼 수 있게 된다. 이와 같이 수산화마그네슘($Mg(OH)_2$)및 탄산칼슘($CaCO_3$)을 주성분으로 하여 석출되는 석회질 피막(calcareous deposits)은 피방식체에 유입되는 음극방식 전류밀도를 감소시켜 주거나 물리적 장벽의 역할을 함으로써 외부의 산소와 물 등 부식환경으로부터 소지금속을 보호한다[2]. 그러나 석회질 피막은 소지금속과의 결합력, 막의 균일한 분포, 내식성 및 제작시간의 단축 등 해결해야 할 과제가 있다. 또한 여러 가지 환경 조건 등의 영향을 받아 그 피막의 형성 정도도 가늠하기 어렵기 때문에 음극방식 설계 시 그 정도에 따른 영향을 고려-반영하기가 곤란하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 석출속도, 밀착성 및 내식특성을 향상시키기 위해 전착프로세스를 통해 해수 중 기체를 용해시켜 석회질 피막을 제작하고 막의 결정구조 제어 및 특성을 분석-평가하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 강 기판(Steel Substrate)은 일반구조용강(KS D 3503, SS400)을 사용하였으며, 외부전원은 정류기(Rectifier, xantrex, XDL 35-5T)를 사용하여 3 및 $5A/m^2$의 조건으로 인가하였다. 양극의 경우에는 해수에 녹아있는 이온 이외에 다른 성분들이 환원되는 것을 방지하기 위해 불용성 양극인 탄소봉(Carbon Rod)을 사용하였다. 이때 석출속도, 밀착성 및 내식특성 향상을 위해 해수에 주입한 기체의 양은 0.5 NL/min였으며, 기판 근처에 고정하여 음극 부근에서의 반응을 유도하였다. 각 조건별로 제작된 막의 표면 모폴로지, 조성원소 및 결정구조 분석을 실시하였으며, 석회질 피막의 밀착성과 내식특성을 평가하기 위해 규격에 따른 테이핑 테스트(Taping Test, ISO 2409)와 3 % NaCl 용액에서 전기화학적 양극 분극 시험을 진행하여 제작된 막의 내구성과 내식성을 분석-평가하였다. 시간에 따른 전착막의 외관관찰 결과 전류밀도의 증가와 함께 상대적으로 많은 피막이 형성되었고, 용해시킨 기체에 의해 더 치밀하고 두터운 피막이 형성됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 성분 및 결정구조 분석 결과 $Mg(OH)_2$ 성분의 Brucite 및 $CaCO_3$ 성분의 Calcite 및 Aragonite 구조를 확인하였으며, 용해시킨 기체의 영향으로 $CaCO_3$ 성분의 Aragonite 구조가 상대적으로 많이 검출되었다. 밀착성 및 내식성 평가를 실시한 결과 해수 중 용해시킨 기체에 의해 제작한 시편의 경우 견고하고 화학적 친화력이 높은 Aragonite 결정이 표면을 치밀하게 덮어 전해질로부터 산소와 물의 침입을 차단하는 역할을 하여 기체를 용해시키지 않은 3 및 $5A/m^2$ 보다 비교적 우수한 밀착성 및 내식 특성을 보이는 것으로 사료된다.

There are several purpose to introduce microorganism into the Soil. The major purpose is to promote plant growth and inhibit plant pathogens. The model example is to put in nitrogen fixing symbiotic bacteria, Pythium and Rhizobium. In order to achieve the intended goal, the introduced microorganism should survive and colonize with sufficient density. The survival of introduced microorganism depend upon biotic and abiotic factors. Predation and competition are important among biotic factor. Water tension, organic carbon, inorganic nutrients(N, P), pH are important factor among abiootic factor. Soil texture and distribution of soil pore are also important in the survival and colonization of introduced microorganism. Selection by soil ecosystem for inoculant is a crucial factor for colonization. Good example are control of autochtonous microorganism and the introduction of surfactant biodegrading Pseudomonas. Sometimes, carriers such as peat and montmorillonite can be added to help colonization. Carriers can protect introduced microorganism by supplying protective microhabitat. Organic polymer is also used as a carrier to immobilize bacteria or industrial enzymes. Examples of these carrier are calcium alginate, agarose and k-carrageenan. The function of these carrier is to provide microhabitat and help colonization for introduced microorganism.
