선박의 이동으로 유입된 유해해양생물은 해양생태계교란을 유발하고 있으며 주로 선박평형수와 선체부착생물의 형태로 유입되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 선박평형수의 이동으로 인한 유해해양생물은 모든 선박에 의무적으로 처리설비를 선박에 설치하도록 강제화되었기 때문에 상당히 감소되었다. 그러나 선체부착생물의 경우 현재 IMO 가이드라인을 통해 각국에 관리를 권고하는 수준이기 때문에 비 강제화로 여전히 이동 위험이 존재한다. 특히 선체부착생물은 해양생태계 교란 문제도 있지만 에너지효율 저감에도 영향을 미치기 때문에 IMO 온실가스 감축목표 달성위한 하나의 방안으로 최근 주목받고 있다. 선체부착생물에 대한 관리의 필요성에 대해 국제적 공감대가 증가되고 있기 때문에 강제화 규제로 이어질 가능성이 높다. 따라서 본 연구는 선체부착생물 규제를 이미 시행하고 있는 국가의 사례를 중심으로 우리나라의 선체 부착생물의 관리 방안을 제시하였다.

Copper has been used as an interconnect material in the fabrication of semiconductor devices, because of its higher electrical conductivity and superior electro-migration resistance. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) technique is required to planarize the overburden Cu film in an interconnect process. Various problems such as dishing, erosion, and delamination are caused by the high pressure and chemical effects in the Cu CMP process. But these problems have to be solved for the fabrication of the next generation semiconductor devices. Therefore, new process which is electro-chemical mechanical planarization/polishing (ECMP) or electro-chemical mechanical planarization was introduced to solve the. technical difficulties and problems in CMP process. In the ECMP process, Cu ions are dissolved electrochemically by the applying an anodic potential energy on the Cu surface in an electrolyte. And then, Cu complex layer are mechanically removed by the mechanical effects between pad and abrasive. This paper focuses on the manufacturing of ECMP system and its process. ECMP equipment which has better performance and stability was manufactured for the planarization process.

Low energy laser irradiation(LELI) therapy in physical therapy is widespread but the mechanisms are not fully understood. The purpose of the present study was to examine the epidermal growth factor(EGF)'s expression within lumbar spinal cord which corresponding with crushed extensor digitorum longus(EDL) of rats after low-power laser irradiation applied. After a crushed injury on the right EDL, low-power laser irradiation was applied by using 2000mW, 2000Hz, 830nm GaAlAs(Gallium-aluminum-arsenide) semiconductor diode laser. The laser treatment was performed with 10 minutes daily for 3days. After EDL crush injury, EGF immunoreactive positive neurons in experimental group were progressively decreased from the first to third days. Especially 1 day subgroup is highly expressed in dorsal horn(Lamina I, II, III) and around of central cannal of spinal cord(Lamina VII). Control group was only expressed slightly at 3 days. This study suggests that LELI stimulate that release and migration of EGF in spinal cord, which distict to wound site, therfore promote wound healing of EDL crush injury.

Geochemical analyses carried out on samples collected from cores on and near the southern smit of Hydrate Ridge have advanced understanding by providing a clear contrast of the two major modes of marine gas hydrate occurrence. High concentrations (15%-40% of pore space) of gas hydrate occurring at shallow depths (0-40 mbsf) on and near the southern summit are fed by gas migrating from depths of as much as 2km within the accretionary prism. This gas carries a characteristic minor component of C2-C5 thermogenic hydrocarbons that enable tracing of migration pathways and may stabilize the occurrence of some structure II gas hydrate. A structure II wet gas hydrate that is stable to greater depths and temperatures than structure I methane hydrate may account for the deeper, faint second bottom simulating reflection (BSR2) that occurs on the seaward side of the ridge. The wet gas is migrating In an ash/turbidite layer that intersects the base of gas hydrate stability on the seaward side of and directly beneath the southern summit of Hydrate Ridge. The high gas saturation (>65%) of the pore space within this layer could create a two-phase (gas + solid) system that would enable free gas to move vertically upward through the gas hydrate stability zone. Away from the summit of the ridge there is no apparent influx of the gas seeping from depth and sediments are characterized by the normal sequence of early diagenetic processes involving anaerobic oxidation of sedimentary organic matter, initially linked to the reduction of sulfate and later continued by means of carbonate reduction leading to the formation of microbial methane.

In this study, we performed a sediment elution experiment to evaluate water quality in terms of phosphorus, as influenced by the dissolved oxygen consumed by sediments. Three separate model column treatments, namely, raw, calcined, and sonicated oyster shell powders, were used in this experiment. Essential phosphorus fractions were examined to verify their roles in nutrient release from sediment based on correlation analyses. When treated with calcined or sonicated oyster shell powder, the sediment-water interface became "less anaerobic," thereby producing conditions conducive to partial oxidation and activities of aerobic bacteria. Sediment Oxygen Demand (SOD) was found to be closely correlated with the growth of algae, which confirmed an intermittent input of organic biomass at the sediment surface. SOD was positively correlated with exchangeable and loosely adsorbed phosphorus and organic phosphorus, owing to the accumulation of unbound algal biomass-derived phosphates in sediment, whereas it was negatively correlated with ferric iron-bound phosphorus or calcium fluorapatite-bound phosphorus, which were present in the form of "insoluble" complexes, thereby facilitating the free migration of sulfate-reducing bacteria or limiting the release from complexes, depending on applied local conditions. PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis revealed that iron-reducing bacteria were the dominant species in control and non-calcined oyster shell columns, whereas certain sulfur-oxidizing bacteria were identified in the column treated with calcined oyster powder.

본 연구에서는 단일주파수 일방향파동방정식을 이용하여 주파수영역에서 얻어진 파동장을 델타함수(delta function)화하고 로그(logarithm)변환을 하여 정확하고 계산시간이 적은 새로운 주시계산 방법을 개발하였다. 주시 오차를 최소화하기 위하여 여러 가지 실험을 통해 격자간격과 주파수간의 경험식을 구하였다. 아이코날 방정식(eikonal equation)에 의해 얻어진 주시곡선이나 유한차분 모델링을 이용해서 얻은 스냅샷(snapshot)의 파면 등, 다른 주시 계산 방법들에 의한 결과가 본 연구에서 얻은 결과와 아주 유사하였다. 위 두 가지 방법과 달리 본 알고리즘은 투과파의 주시만을 계산한다. 본 연구에 의해서 구한 주시를 이용하여 구조보정을 해 본 결과, 원 모델과 아주 유사한 좋은 단면을 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과를 볼 때 이 새로운 주시계산 알고리즘은 지하구조보정과 투과 토모그래피 (transmission tomography)에 필요한 직접파의 주시를 더 빨리 계산하는 방법이다.

[18F]Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT imaging has been widely used in the diagnosis of malignant tumors. ATPase family AAA domain-containing protein 2 (ATAD2) plays important roles in tumor growth, invasion and metastasis. However, the relationship between [18F]FDG accumulation and ATAD2 expression remains largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between ATAD2 expression and [18F]FDG uptake in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and elucidate its underlying molecular mechanisms. The results showed that ATAD2 expression was positively correlated with maximum standardized uptake value ($SUV_{max}$), total lesion glycolysis (TLG), glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT1) expression and hexokinase2 (HK2) expression in LUAD tissues. In addition, ATAD2 knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation, tumorigenicity, migration, [18F]FDG uptake and lactate production of LUAD cells, while, ATAD2 overexpression exhibited the opposite effects. Furthermore, ATAD2 modulated the glycometabolism of LUAD via AKT-GLUT1/HK2 pathway, as assessed using LY294002 (an inhibitor of PI3K/AKT pathway). In summary, to explore the correlation between ATAD2 expression and glycometabolism is expected to bring good news for anti-energy metabolism therapy of cancers.

It is necessary to assess and manage the different elements of the marine ecosystem, such as climate change, habitat, primary and secondary production, energy flow, food web, potential yield, and fishing, to maintain the health of the ecosystem as well as support sustainable development of fishery. We set up an ecosystem model around the Korean peninsula to produce scientific predictions necessary for the assessment and management of marine ecosystems and presented the usability of the model with scenario experiments. We used the Atlantis ecosystem model based on the marine food web; Atlantis is a three-dimensional end-to-end model that includes the information and processes within an entire system, from an abiotic environment to human activity. We input the ecological and biological parameters, such as growth, mortality, spawning, recruitment, and migration, to the Atlantis model via functional groups using existing research and local measurements. During the simulation period (2018-2019), we confirmed that the model reproduced the observed data reasonably and reflected the actual ecosystem characteristics appropriately. We thus identified the usability of a marine ecosystem model with experiments on different environmental change scenarios.

황화납(PbS)을 감응물질로 하는 양자점 감응형 태양전지를 제작하고 효율을 측정해 보았다. 기판에 산화아연(ZnO) 나노선을 기른 후 SILAR(Successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction)법으로 PbS 양자점을 합성하고 이를 주사전자현미경(SEM), X-선 회절(XRD)을 통해 확인하였다. SILAR를 통해서 형성된 나노이종구조는 PbS 나노입자들이 ZnO 나노선 위에 균일하게 성장한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 실험에서 PbS을 이용한 양자점 감응형 태양전지의 최고 효율은 one sun에서 0.075%로 나타났으며, 이는 기존의 다른 감응 물질에 비해 비교적 낮은 효율을 나타내었다. 이러한 요인으로는 i) ZnO와 PbS의 밴드갭 배열이 Type-I 형을 이룰 수 있는 가능성, ii) 다양한 크기의 밴드갭을 가지는 PbS에 의한 전자이동 방해 효과, iii) 전해질에 의한 PbS의 안정성 저하 등의 이유를 생각해 볼 수 있으며, 이를 해결하기 위해서는 PbS의 크기분포 조절과 새로운 전해질에 대한 연구가 향후 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Many rivers and seas have been affected by environmental contamination. Therefore, city water supplies often require a high-degree purification treatment to provide safe drinking water. However, in order to achieve a high-degree purification treatment, a large amount of chlorine has to be added to sterilize city drinking water. The added chlorine reacts chemically with water and forms hypochlorous and chlorine ions. The hypochlorous ionizes with hypochlorous ions and hydrogen ions. As a result, the city water contains a large amount of chlorine ion. As such, when city water is used with domestic boilers, many kinds of heat exchangers, and the engines of vehicle and ships, there are often corrosion problems. In this study, alkali water was electrochemically made by electrolysis of city water, and corrosion properties between alkali and city water were investigated with an electrochemical method. Most of the chlorine ions are thought to not be contained in the alkali water because the alkali water is created in the cathodic chamber with an electrolysis process. In other words, the chlorine ion can be mostly removed by its migration from a cathodic chamber to an anodic chamber. Moreover, the alkali water also contains a large amount of hydroxide ion. The alkali water indicated relatively good corrosion resistance compared to the city water and the city water exhibited a local corrosion pattern due to the chlorine ion created by a high-degree purification treatment. In contrast, the alkali water showed a general corrosion pattern. Consequently, alkali water can be used with cooling water to inhibit local corrosion by chlorine ions in domestic boilers, various heat exchangers and the engine of ships and for structural steel in a marine structure.
