In this study, Mokpo national maritime university Training ship Centralizes Air Conditioning System was upgraded by installing onboard an Air-cooled Air conditioner. This resulted in the improvement of the performance and operation. This study compared refrigeration performance to former equipment and improving one. And through the actual measurement study about the cabin thermal environment, it will be used as basic data for marine air conditioning design and plan in the future. At same climate condition, when the Centralized Air Conditioning System and an improved air conditioning system operated, cabin temperature was at $24{\sim}28^{\circ}C$, humidity was 55~75 % as comfortable condition, Generator load measurement showed a saving of 48KW in the average load and 8 % in the full load factor. This also resulted in a saving of daily fuel oil consumption(FOC) at around 222 [${\ell}/day$] average. On the other hand, one cadet cabin(Cadet No.21) indicated a higher temperature due to heat transmission of engine room. It found us not to consider installing additional diffuser to reduce the heat transmission.

울란바타르시는 몽골의 수도로 인구 110만명이 거주하고 있으며 매년 증가추세에 있다. 2030년에는 몽고 전체인구의 55.5%가 집중되어 도시의 밀집도가 심화될 것으로 예측된다. 몽골은 연평균 강우량이 250mm에도 미치지 못하는 건조한 지역이 대부분으로 전체 수원을 지하수에 의존하고 있으며 인구증가에 따른 지하수 고갈 및 최근 기후변화로 인한 가뭄, 폭설, 한파 등의 영향으로 활용 가능한 수자원이 매년 줄어들고 있어 신규 상수원 확보가 무엇보다 중요시 하고 있다. 동절기 상수원의 결빙을 예방하여야 하나 어려운 전력난으로 전력대신 석탄 보일러를 이용하고 있어 심한 환경오염을 일으키고 있다. 이러한 각종 현상 및 문제점들에 대응코자 진행중인 울란바타르시 수자원개발 마스터플랜 및 상수원 추가 개발사업 가운데 조절지로 공급되는 관로의 잉여압력을 이용한 소수력과 추가되는 가압장의 여유부지에 시설되는 태양광발전의 개발 사례에 대해서 살펴보고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 지열히트펌프 시스템의 열원으로써 지열이외에 건축물의 미활용 에너지라고 할 수 있는 상수도의 에너지를 활용하여 지중열교환기의 천공길이를 줄이는 것이 주요 목적이며, 또한 건물의 미활용에너지를 냉난방에너지원으로써 이용 가능한 것을 보여주는 것에 있다. 실험은 4인 가족기준으로 3RT 용량의 히트펌프를 설치하고 인당 평균 177 liter/day 기준으로 하루에 약 710 liter/day의 물을 사용하는 것으로 가정하였다(환경부 2007년 상수도 통계값). 시간당 가정내에서 사용하는 물량은 일정하지 않아 일일 8시간 사용하는 것으로 하여 약 1.5 LPM 으로 실험하였다. 저수조의 크기 및 지열 히트펌프의 열원으로써 사용가능한 열량을 계산하기 위해 CFD 시물레이션을 수행하였다. CFD의 결과 상수도를 급수하기 위한 저수조의 크기는 $2m^3$로 결정하였으며 이때 열원으로써 사용가능한 열량은 약 0.7RT였다. 48시간의 실험기간 동안 저수조를 통해 얻은 열원은 0.6RT 였으며 100m의 지중열교환기를 통해 얻은 열원은 2RT 였다. 히트펌프 자체의 난방 COP는 평균 4.2를 나타내었으며 펌프등의 소비전력을 포함한 System COP는 4.0 나타내었다. 이번 연구를 통해 건물의 미활용에너지인 저수조의 물을 이용하여 지열히트펌프의 열원으로써 이용 가능하며 기존의 지열히트펌프 시스템대비 천공길이 단축, 시공비 저감이 가능한 것을 볼 수 있었다.

This study empirically analyzes the effect of weather on pedestrian volume in an urban space. We used data from the 2009 Seoul Flow Population Survey and constructed a model with the pedestrian volume as a dependent variable and the weather and physical environment as independent variables. We constructed 28 models and compared the results to determine the effects of weather on pedestrian volume by season, land use, and time zone. A negative binomial regression model was used because the dependent variable did not have a normal distribution. The results show that weather affects the volume of walking. Rain reduced walking volume in most models, and snow and thunderstorms reduced the volume in a small number of models. The effects of the weather depended on the season and land use, and the effects of environmental factors depended on the season. The results have various policy implications. First, it is necessary to provide semi-outdoor urban spaces that can cope with snow or rain. Second, it is necessary to have different policies to encourage walking for each season.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of landscaping shade materials' porosity on the Mean Radiant Temperature (MRT) of summer outdoors. The MRTs were measured under seven different types of black membranes with holes of 8mm diameter at different intervals applied on the top of wooden boxes, and compared with those of four additional control plots with or without shade and lateral boxes. The applied porosities were 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16%, and 32%, and three groups of three shades were compared sequentially from August 13 to September 8, 2016. The MRTs under the shade without lateral block, no shade with lateral block, and shade with lateral block were $33.08^{\circ}C$, $45.80^{\circ}C$, and $42.3^{\circ}C$, respectively, while that of no-shaded no-lateral screen was $44.26^{\circ}C$, based on records from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM on the days with a peak globe temperature higher than $30^{\circ}C$. An ANCOVA analysis showed that the MRTs under the shades with 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16%, and 32% porosities were calculated as 43.40, 43.10, 41.49, 40.43, 39.61, $37.91^{\circ}C$, and $38.12^{\circ}C$, respectively, while that in the no shaded control box was $45.8^{\circ}C$. The curve fitted between MRTs and the porosity showed a U-shaped quadratic function with the minimum MRT at 16% practically or 22.5% statistically.

This study analyzed the characteristics of water quality and the correlation between Chl-a and water quality factors among four weirs located in the middle and downstream of Nakdong River for five years. The concentration of nutrients and Chl-a from DS to CH was higher than that of GG, which is considered to be due to the influx of Kumho River located at upstream of DS. There was a significant correlationship between Chl-a and most of the water quality factors for all season data. Based on the comparison results between all season data and summer season data, a negative correlation between Chl-a and nutrients ($PO_4-P$, $NH_3-N$) was increased. Based on analysis on summer in 2015 with relatively low precipitation and high algal blooms, the correlation between Chl-a and $PO_4-P$ at all sites were increased. Therefore phosphorus is an important factor in the river on summer season. And PCA results showed the first factor was classified as T-N, $NO_3-N$ for all seasons, and the first factor was classified as T-P, $PO_4-P$ for summer seasons. Consequently, the middle and downstream of Nakdong River were most affected by nutrients, especially it was affected by phosphorous pollutants rather than nitrogen pollutants during summer seasons.

This research was performed to acquire dietitians' attitudes toward events marketing at school foodservice operations in the Busan area. A total of 359 questionnaires were distributed to dietitians employed at school foodservice operations in Busan from July 1 to 31, 2006 (response rate: 93%). All dietitians assessed the importance and performance of event marketing at 3.39/5.00 and 2.78/5.00. The elementary and high school had significantly (p<0.01) higher average scores of performance of event marketing than those of the middle school. The contract managed foodservices had significantly (p<0.01) higher average scores of performance of event marketing than those of the independent managed foodservices. In the Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA), high importance and high performance (B area: doing great) were seasonal event, traditional festival day event, subdivisions of the seasonal event, environment event, school event, the day event and high importance whereas low performance (A area: focus here) was health event. Event marketing increased customer satisfaction and confidence. Therefore, these results suggest that there may be a need to implement special events at school foodservice in order to increase students' satisfaction.

Mosquitos serve as vectors for diseases, causing inconvenience as well as a threat to human life and health. Concern about mosquitos introducing and spreading new diseases has been intensifying. We observed a variety of mosquito habitats based on land cover classification from Korea's Ministry of Environment, and the mosquito species that could appear were classified according to the each habitat type. Finally, we suggested the best control methods for each type of habitat considering habitat characteristics and the ecological traits of mosquitos. Urban areas harbor various habitats for pests, contributing significantly to mosquito habitats. Control must be performed regarding larva and adults because various sources for habitats exist. Public mosquito control programs such as educational training, as well as information brochures can be effective in managing mosquito populations and public health. Agricultural areas show high densities of mosquito larva to lentic zones such as reservoirs, wetlands, paddy fields. So, biological control using natural predators may be effective in controlling mosquito populations. Forests are major habitats for Aedes albopctus, so physical controls should be deployed for residents living nearby, and excessive deforestation should be minimized. Other areas including aquatic ecosystems should be adopted regarding biological control using Bti (Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis) and chemical control for eradicating mosquitos. We classified habitats into four types of land cover patterns considering ecological traits and habitat preference, and suggest adequate control methods for each habitat type. Our suggestion can be used to positively contribute toward effective managing mosquito's density and reducing the damage to public health.

The temporal and spatial distributions of phosphorus have been investigated in the Gomso Bay, Korea. TP, PIP, TOP and DIP in sediment were found 548.8mg P kg$^{-1}$ , 426.1mg P kg$^{-1}$ , 122.6mg P kg$^{-1}$ , and 0.217mg P kg$^{-1}$ , respectively with a decreasing order of PIP>TOP>DIP. Any temporal or spatial trend has not been found on the distribution of TP in the sediment, except the high TP values near the mouth of Julpo-chun. We found seasonal patterns high TOP(28.90% of TP) and low TIP(71.10% of TP) in August, but low TOP(15.63% of TP) and high TIP(84.38% of TP) in November. There were three times higher DIP concentration in August than in November. Such case is probably not only due to the enhanced supply of DIP directly from the decomposition of organic matter from overlying water in summer, but also the released phosphate from the adsorbed particulate matter such as PIP under the low pH and Eh conditions at the subsurface layers of the sediment induced by the active microbial respiration of increased organic materials in summer. Primarily, the source of phosphorous from municipal sewage strongly influenced the early stage of the distribution of all the phosphorous in the Gomso tidal flat. Notwithstanding, through the processes of diagenesis in sediment, water temperature and organic contents probably functioned as the key parameters to control the temporal distributions of TOP, TIP and DIP in the Gomso tidal flat.

We have conducted pyrosequencing for freshwater microbial community analyses. Fourteen sites along the Yeongsan river were selected for this study, and samples were collected monthly from May to July, 2012. Total 987,380 reads were obtained from 42 samples and used for taxonomic classification and OTU distribution analysis. Our results showed that high geographical and temporal variation in the phylum level bacterial composition, suggesting that microbial community is a very sensitive parameter affected by the surrounding environments including tributaries and land use nearby. In addition, we conducted an OTU-based Microbial Source Tracking to identify sources of fecal pollution in the same region. From this study Firmicutes was found to be the most influential taxa in this region. Here, we report that the use of pyrosequencing based microbial community analysis may give an additional information on freshwater quality monitoring, in addition to the currently used water quality parameters, such as BOD and pH.
