An exopolysaccharide, designated as A49-Pol, was produced from Bacillus polymyxa KCTC 8648P in nitrogen sufficient conditions. The viscosity of the culture broth increased up to $2\times10^4$cP in 38 hours of culture and then decreased to $1.5\times10^4$CP at 48 hours. The $1.0\%$ (w/v) solution of purified A49-Pol represented pseudoplasticity with a viscosity of $2.7\times10^4$cP which was two times higher than xanthan at the same concentration. The viscosity of the A49-Pol solution was also greatly affected by its concentration in comparison with the xanthan solution. The viscosity of $1.0\%$ A49-Pol solution was 930-fold higher than its $0.2\%$ solution, whereas the corresponding viscosities of xanthan solution experienced only l7-fold difference. The viscosity was observed to be maximum at pH 7.0 in both A49-Pol and xanthan solutions, and gradually decreased as the pHs of the polysaccharide solutions went to acidic or alkaline regions. The viscosity of A49-Pol solution was very sensitive to temperature compared to xanthan and decreased with increasing temperature. The viscosity of $0.6\%$ solution of A49-Pol was 8,100 cP at $10^{\circ}C$ and 55 cP at $50^{\circ}C$. The viscosity was also affected by the presence of surfactants such as Span 20 and Triton X-l00 ; with $0.5\%$ Triton X-l00 (v/v), the viscosity of A49-Pol solution increased by $50\%$.

The strain A49, which produces a new type of extracellular polysaccharide was isolated from soil samples. From morphological, physiological and biochemical tests, the strain A49 was identified as a Bacillus polymyxa and named Bacillus polymyxa A49. Bacillus polymyxa A49 was found to produce a highly viscous extracellular polysaccharide when grown aerobically in a medium containing glucose as the sole source of carbon. The polysaccharide (A49 POL) showed a homogeneous pattern on gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and its molecular weight was estimated to be about 1.6 mega dalton (mDa). The FT-IR spectrum of A49-POL revealed typical characteristics of polysaccharides. As a result of investigations with HPLC and carbozole assay, A49-POL was found to consist of L-fucose, D-galactose, D-glucose, D-mannose, and D-glucuronic acid, with the molar ratio of these sugars being approximately 1:2:7:50:12. Rheological analysis of A49 POL revealed that it is pseudoplastic and has a higher apparent viscosity at dilute concentrations than does xanthan gum. The consistancy factor of A49 POL was found to be higher, and the flow index of A49 POL lower, than xanthan gum. Its apparent viscosity was comparatively unstable at various temperatures. the A49 POL showed the highest apparent viscosity at pH 3. When salts were added to A49 POL solution, the solution was compatible with up to 10% KCl, 35% NaCl, 55% $CaCl_2$, 55% $MgCl_2$, 55% $K_2HPO_4$, and 110% $Ca({NO_3})_2$, respectively.

Applied by periodic Stimulating Currents in Bonhoeffer -Van der Pol(BVP) model, chaotic and periodic phenomena occured at specific conditions. The conditions of the chaotic motion in BVP comprised 0.7182< $A_1$ <0.792 and 1.09< $A_1$ <1.302 proved by the analysis of phase plane, bifurcation diagram, and lyapunov exponent. To control the chaotic motion, two methods were suggested by the first used the amplitude parameter A1, $A1={\varepsilon}((x-x_s)-(y-y_s))$ and the second used the temperature parameterc, $c=c(1+{\eta}cos{\Omega}t)$ which the values of ${\eta},{\Omega}$ varied respectlvly, and $x_s$, $y_s$ are the periodic signal. As a result of simulating these methods, the chaotic phenomena was controlled with the periodic motion of periodisity. The feasibilities of the chaotic and the periodic phenomena were analysed by phase plane Poincare map and lyapunov exponent.

기상청, 국토교통부 및 국방부는 각 기관의 특성에 맞게 기상, 수문 및 항공 관측용 레이더를 운영하고 있다. 2015년까지 국내에는 총 8대의 이중편파레이더(백령도, 용인테스트베드, 진도, 면봉산, 비슬산, 소백산, 모후산, 서대산 레이더)가 도입되어 운영되고 있다. 레이더를 운영 중인 세개 부처는 관측목적이 달라 레이더에 대한 운영방식, 자료 처리 방식 및 활용 방안 등에서 서로 많은 차이를 보여 왔으며 이러한 차이는 각 부처에서 운영하는 레이더 자료의 정확도가 달라지게 하는 원인이 되고 있다. 이에, 세 부처는 2010년 "기상-강우 레이더 자료 공동 활용에 관한 합의서"를 체결하고, 서로 다른 부처에서 생산된 모든 레이더 자료를 공동 활용하는 체계를 마련하였다. 범부처 이중편파레이더 자료의 합성을 위해서는 부처별 레이더 간의 정확도가 서로 유사해야한다. 서로간의 정확도가 다른 상태에서 레이더 강우 자료를 합성하게 된다면 공간적으로 품질이 다른 합성 강우장이 생산될 수밖에 없다. 이에 본 연구에서는 범부처 이중편파레이더 강우량의 정확도 향상과 통합을 위해 2015년도에 용인테스트베드 레이더에서 시행되었던 경험적 방법을 이용하였다. 그 결과 2015년 5월부터 10월까지의 백령도, 비슬산 및 소백산 레이더 자료에 대한 강우량 정확도(1-NE)가 70% 수준으로 향상되었다. 또한 레이더 편파변수 조절 전에는 정확도가 30~60%까지 넓은 범위를 보이고 있으나 조절 후 65~70%로 그 범위가 줄어들었다.

The study attempts to examine the relationship among revenue growth factors from different angles and provides a comprehensive overview of tax revenue collection for developing countries. The impact of income tax, customs duty, and value-added tax on the gross domestic product is examined using the ordinary least-square (OLS) multiple regression approach. To confirm the association, a multiple regression model is applied to time-series data. SPSS software, MS Excel, is used to draw the empirical results, trend analysis, and some graphical presentation to reach the study's objective. The findings show that while the value-added tax has a significant impact and the highest coefficient, regardless of country, income tax and customs duty may or may not be significant depending on the circumstances. It triggers effectual and efficacious economic growth. The paper has implications in policy-making areas where governments are seeking how to stimulate revenue growth effectively and efficiently. To promote economic growth, the tax net and tax rate on luxury goods should be increased along with human resources in the tax administration for the short term. But in the long term, decentralization & digitization of tax administration, dismantling the existing tax barriers and good governance are necessary.

Obligate endoparasitic oomycetes are known to ubiquitously occur in marine and freshwater diatoms, but their diversity is still largely unexplored. Many of these parasitoids are members of the early-diverging oomycete lineages (Miracula, Diatomophthora), others are within the Leptomitales of the Saprolegniomycetes (Ectrogella, Lagenisma) and some have been described in the Peronosporomycetes (Aphanomycopsis, Lagenidium). Even though some species have been recently described and two new genera were introduced (Miracula and Diatomophthora), the phylogeny and taxonomy of most of these organisms remain unresolved. This is contrasted by the high number of sequences from unclassified species, as recently revealed from environmental sequencing, suggesting the presence of several undiscovered species. In this study, a new species of Miracula is reported from a marine centric diatom (Minidiscus sp.) isolated from Skagaströnd harbor in Northwest Iceland. The morphology and life cycle traits of this novel oomycete parasite are described herein, and its taxonomic placement within the genus Miracula is confirmed by molecular phylogeny. As it cannot be assigned to any previously described species, it is introduced as Miracula islandica in this study. The genus Miracula thus contains three described holocarpic species (M. helgolandica, M. islandica, M. moenusica) to which likely additional species will need to be added in the future, considering the presence of several lineages known only from environmental sequencing that clustered within the Miracula clade.
