Total eight different winter mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) strains were characterized by comparisons of fruiting body morphology, hardness and color after growing at different temperature. Although variations depending on the strains were observed, in general, both stipe length and pilus diameter were shorter while pilus thickness was bigger as growing temperatures were decreased. No significant differences in stipe thickness were observed. The ASI4065 and 4151 had the tallest stipe and the ASI4021 had the shortest stipe. The ASI4103 strain had the biggest pilus diameter. The ASI4153 had most thick pilus, while the ASI 4021 had least thick pilus. Also, the ASI4166 had the most thick stipe and the ASI4065 had the most thin stipe. The hardness of white mushrooms were increased by decreasing growth temperatures, while no relationships between the hardness of brown mushrooms. In most strains, stipe were much stronger than pilei and white mushrooms were harder than brown ones. The strain having most strong stipe was ASI4021. Both ASI 4021 and ASI4166 had the most strong pilus. The color of pilus has much lighter than that of stipe. White mushrooms had high brightness value ranging from 70-90, while brown mushrooms showed low brightness value from 30-70. Saturation value was higher in brown mushrooms. Based on our study, it was shown that environmental conditions had some effects on winter mushrooms, but genetic differences among strains were more important factors to determine most characteristics of winter mushrooms.

The effect of water temperature and feed on the growth, survival, and body composition of juvenile abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) fed an artificial formulated diet and a macroalgae (Laminaria japonica) for 12 weeks was investigated. Rearing temperature was maintained at $13{\circ}C,\;16{\circ}C,\;19{\circ}C$ by heated and natural sea water temperatures $(7.5-10.2{\circ}C).$ Shell growth, weight gain, and survival rate of the abalone were affected by water temperature and diet (P<0.05). Survival and growth rate of the abalone fed with the formulated diet and Laminaria at $19{\circ}C$ was significantly higher than those of the abalone fed the formulated diet or Laminaria at $13{\circ}C,\;16{\circ}C,$ and ambient temperatures (P<0.05). Moisture, crude protein, crude lipid, and ash contents of the soft whole body were affected mainly by diet than rearing water temperature (P<0.05). These indicate that a mixture of formulated diet and macroalgae could improve the growth of the abalone independent of water temperature and heated water could improve the growth of abalone during the winter season.

This study was conducted to determine whether the difference in egg hatching temperature of Korea Reeves' turtle (Mauremys reevesii) at the artificial nursery of Seoul National Grand Park affects the incubation period and growth. A total of 201 eggs were incubated at 26 ℃ (n=89), 28 ℃ (n=75) and 32 ℃ (n=37). The incubation period of eggs showed significant differences according to the hatching temperature. In this study, the higher the hatching temperature, the higher the hatching rate. The incubation period of the eggs hatched at 26 ℃, 28 ℃ and 32 ℃ was 66.1 (±4.0, n = 52) days, 65.3 (±3.3, n = 44) days and 58.8 (±7.7, n = 31) days, respectively. Eggs incubated at 32 ℃ (83.8%) had a higher hatching success than those at 26 ℃ (58.4%) and 28 ℃ (58.7%). The body mass of 14-day-old hatchlings incubated at 32 ℃ was greater than those incubated at 26 ℃ and 28 ℃. However, there was no significant difference in the mean body mass of 180 and 270-day-old turtles hatched at these different temperatures. This study showed that the hatching temperature significantly affected the incubation period and body mass in the early life of the Korea Reeves' turtle (M. reevesii).

Survival of 12.7 g (average body weight) Litopenaeus vannamei was examined at temperatures of 14, 16, 18, 28, 32, 34 and 36$^{\circ}C$ and salinities of l0, 20, 30 and 40 ppt after 7 days. Hemolymph osmolality was measured at 12 combinations of salinities (l0, 20, 30 and 40 ppt) and temperature levels (18, 28 and 34$^{\circ}C$) after 14 days. The results show that the species have their best survival between temperatures of 18 and 3$0^{\circ}C$ and salinity above 20 ppt. Hemolymph osmolality increased with increased salinity at all temperatures tested. The isosmotic point calculated from the linear relationship between hemolymph osmolality and medium osmolality and recorded as 826, 809 and 1,117 mOsm/kg which is equivalent to 29.4, 28.8 and 40.2 ppt at 18, 28 and 34$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The slopes obtained from the relationship between hemolymph osmolality and medium osmolality were 0.314, 0.276 and 0.541 for L. vannamei at 18, 28 and 34$^{\circ}C$, respectively, suggesting that the shrimp at 34$^{\circ}C$ regulated osmotic concentration much worse than those at 18 and 28$^{\circ}C$. This result also indicated that L. vannamei living at 34$^{\circ}C$, showed more fluctuation in hemolymph osmolality than those at 18 and 28$^{\circ}C$.

Shiitake mushroom (Lentinula edodes) hold high nutritional and medicinal value as they contain an abundance of health-promoting compounds. However, the effect of long-term postharvest storage on the variation in the levels of health-promoting compounds has not been extensively studied. In this study, we investigated the changes in the levels of phenolic compounds, antioxidants, eritadenine, and ergothioneine in shiitake mushrooms stored at three different temperatures (1, 3, and 5 ℃) for 4 weeks. Compared to mushrooms stored at lower temperatures, those stored at 5 ℃ exhibited a higher level of total phenolics in their pileus after 2 weeks of storage; however, storage at 5 ℃ also increased the deterioration of the fruiting body of these mushrooms. In mushrooms stored at all temperatures, the eritadenine content in the pilei tended to increase up to 2 weeks of storage. In contrast, the ergothioneine content in the pileus decreased during storage, with a significantly lower level detected in mushrooms stored at 5 ℃ for 4 weeks. Together, these results suggest that the mechanisms underlying the accumulation of phenolics and eritadenine may be related to mushroom deterioration during storage. Our findings indicate that the levels of health-promoting compounds in shiitake mushrooms are influenced by storage temperature, suggesting the potential to control adjustments of specific bioactive compounds by regulating storage conditions.

An numerical method to estimate thermal diffusivity has been developed for one-dimensional unsteady heat conduction problem, when the temperatures are know at two positions in a semi-infinite body. Using the closed form solution which has already derived an explicit solution for the inverse problem for one-dimensional transient heat conduction using Laplace transform technique, we first estimate the surface temperature. The thermal diffusivity can be estimated by using the estimated surface temperature and measured temperatures, which include some uncertainties. The estimated surface heat flux and thermal diffusivity are found to be in good agreement with those of the experimented conditions. This method will be extended to the simultaneous measurement of thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity.

This article is concerned with a two-dimensional problem of micropolar generalized thermoelasticity for a half-space whose surface is traction-free and the conductive temperature at the surface of the half-space is known. Theory of two-temperature generalized thermoelasticity with phase lags using the normal mode analysis is used to solve the present problem. The formulas of conductive and mechanical temperatures, displacement, micro-rotation, stresses and couple stresses are obtained. The considered quantities are illustrated graphically and their behaviors are discussed with suitable comparisons. The present results are compared with those obtained according to one temperature theory. It is concluded that both conductive heat wave and thermodynamical heat wave should be separated. The two-temperature theory describes the behavior of particles of elastic body more real than one-temperature theory.

Although the drying times of paddies were significantly shortened by the application of higher drying temperatures, the 12, 10 and 8 hours were needed for the reduction of moisture contents from 23.55 to 15% at the temperatures of 45, 50 and 55$\^{C}$, respectively. Milling yields(MY) and rice rates(HRR) were decreased by increasing of the drying temperature. The MY ratios were 75.50, 75.42 and 75.31% and HRR were 93.28, 92.14 and 91.12% in drying temperature of 40, 50 and 55$\^{C}$, respectively. In the milling processes of tough rice with the used of a milling machine equipped with both of abrasive and friction types in a body, the reduction rates of bran and the occurrence of broken rice increased with the pressures at outlet or the recycled passing tines. In the process for humidified friction whitening of rice, it was found that the optimum addition rate of water for the best quality was the 11.2 liters per tone of white rice.

This study evaluated the convenience and heating performance of 4 heated vests on the market through a trial of the vests. Participants were four healthy men who wore the garments outside in cold temperatures typical of the garments' real conditions of use. As the results, all the participants preferred the product, having an easily operable controller in ergonomic aspects and the good insulation for keeping the body temperature. The heating performance of vests was the most important factor in selecting the best product in this test. Indeed, the vests themselves found not to be sufficiently warm in the experimental condition. Thus, heated vests with the enhanced heating performance should be developed so that temperatures in the allowed range can be safely accessed.

In this study we calculated the flowfields around the axisymmetric bodies in the rarefied gas regime by using the DSMC. A flat-ended cylinder was selected as a representative axisymmetric body and the gas used for all calculations was nitrogen. With zero angle of attack, an increasingly rapid rise in density and the effect of shock waves near the flat-ended face were examined. And on the cylinder surface velocity slips and boundary layers could be observed in the results. Larsen-Borgnakke model was used for the energy redistribution in inelastic collisions. And by considering all internal energy modes, the distributions of translational, rotational and vibrational temperatures were plotted. The calculations were peformed for various Knudsen numbers, Especially the rotational temperatures calculated for a case were compared with the experimental results. And the simulation results show good agreements with the experimental ones.
