An the livestock production in Japan is industrialized, a tremendous amount of animal wastes is being produced annually, resulting in serious environmental pollution problems. Animal wastes could be pollutants, but they are also important sources of fertilizer nutrients and organic matter. Composting is an effective way of promoting the increased utilization of animal wastes. The characterization of maturing process during composting is important in order to improve the composting technology and to develop and efficient method to estimate the degree of maturity. The rise and fall in temperature, and changes in the constituents of the compost, reflect the maturing process and may serve as indicators for maturation. In addition, the detection of nitrate by diphenylamine, the determination of cation-exchange capacity (CEC), and the germination test, are also recommended as the methods of estimating the degree of maturity. The heavy applications of animal manure and compost may cause an adverse effect on soils and crops. When excess manure is applied, the nitrogen will be accumulated in soil, resulting in accumulation of nitrate in crops and pollution of the groundwater. Guidelines for application rates are recommended, to maintain soil productivity and quality of crops, and to prevent the environmental pollution.

Germination of Hemerocallis seeds as influenced by cold stratification at $5^{\circ}C$ (CS) and maturity of seeds evaluated using X-ray imaging has not been well investigated. Seeds of H. lilioasphodelus, H. citrina, H. citrina 'April Flower', and H. minor collected from China and H. thunbergii collected from Korea were germinated at $20^{\circ}C$ without pre-temperature treatment, while H. hongdoensis, H. dumortieri, H. minor, and H. vespertina seeds were treated with CS. Harvesting 'Stella de Oro' capsules at 35-40 days after anthesis yielded mature seeds with well-developed embryo and cotyledons analyzed by X-ray images with a 92% germination in 17 days after sowing. Seeds of H. thunbergii and H. citrina germinated in less than 13 days without CS; two weeks of CS did not accelerate seed germination. Seeds of H. hongdoensis germinated in 24 days when seeds were stored at $25^{\circ}C$ without CS and in less than 27 days when cold stratified. Therefore, 'Stella de Oro' capsules should be harvested at 35-40 days after anthesis to harvest mature seeds. Cold stratification is not required to accelerate seed germination in the Hemerocallis taxa evaluated in this study.

The suitability of any fish species for successful aquaculture requires basic information on its reproduction and growth. This study investigated some facets of the reproductive biology of Synodontis shall (Mochokidae) from River Siluko in Nigeria. Fish samples were collected forth-nightly for a duration of fourteen (14) months-March 2015 to April, 2016 with the assistance of artisanal fishermen. Fishes were identified using taxonomic guides and standard techniques were used for determination of sex ratio, gonad maturation and fecundity. Linear regression method was used to define the correlation between fecundity and fish length, body weight and ovary weight. Results showed that sex ratio did not indicate a significant divergence (p > 0.05) from the 1 male to 1 female distribution ratio (1:1.41). Gonad morphology revealed paired gonads. Testes and ovaries were classified into four maturity stages: immature, resting, ripening and ripe. Gonadosomatic index ranged from 0.04 to 5.68 (males) and 0.03 to 20.19 (females). Absolute fecundity ranged from 1,014 to 4,520 eggs (mean = 2,592 eggs) and did not correlate significantly (p > 0.05) to ovary weight. This study has contributed to existing data on the biology of freshwater fish species in Nigeria and provided valuable information for fishery management tools in the conservation and utilization of this valuable freshwater fish species.

This study carried out to analysis the characteristics of periodic changes of landscape facilities with the apartment sites in Cheongju City. The construction periods were divided into the introduction stage (the 1980s), the development stage (the 1990s), and the maturity stage (after 1999). As for the apartment sites constructed in the introduction stage (the 1980s), their landscape facilities were restricted to play and resting facilities. Some of them even were constructed without rest facilities. Since the focus was on the affluent supply of houses in the 1980s, they put a greater emphasis on quantity than quality. Entering the development stage in the 1990s, they started to pave the sidewalks and driveways separately within the apartment sites and build parking lots underground. After 1999, they entered the maturity stage, where the outside spaces of apartment sites began to reflect environment-friendly designs and the initiatives to improve residential environments. The major causes behind the introduction of high-grade materials in landscape facilities in the open spaces of apartment sites are the upgraded level of living standards and the diversified patterns of activities taking place in the open spaces. The environmental formative works were placed alongside waterscape spaces to create a beautiful and harmonious landscape.

'Formosa' plums were picked at three maturity stages according to skin redness, treated with $1{\mu}L{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 1-MCP at $10^{\circ}C$ for 24 h and then stored for 21 days at $10^{\circ}C$. Ethylene production, respiration rate, firmness, color, TSS, TA, and ethanol concentration were determined. Total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, and antioxidant capacity were determined periodically by separating the flesh from the peel. Ethylene production and respiration rate were strongly inhibited in all stages of the 1-MCP-treated fruit, while ethylene production dramatically increased in all stages of non-treated fruit until 11 days after harvest, after which it decreased until the end of the experiment. The respiration rate of the stored fruit increased for 11 days in stages 1 and 2 and for 7 days in stage 3 and decreased after. 1-MCP-treated fruit in all stages showed delay in fruit quality changes such as firmness, TA, skin color, and ethanol concentration, but non-treated fruit did not. Total phenolic contents, total flavonoid contents and antioxidant capacity of 'Formosa' plums were not affected by 1-MCP treatment or maturity stage. However, those values were higher in the peel than in the flesh.

본 연구는 연구개발 직군의 실행공동체 영향요인이 공동체 활동 만족도와 조직 내 학습문화 활성화에 미치는 관계를 분석하고, 실행공동체의 성숙도에 따른 성숙 집단과 미성숙 집단의 비교를 통해 기업의 실행공동체 담당자들에게 연구개발 직군의 실행공동체 활성화를 위한 시사점을 제시하고자 했다. 이를 위해 선행연구를 토대로 실행공동체 영향요인을 개인요인, 상호작용요인, 지원요인, 환경요인으로 구성하고, 수집된 총 371개의 설문을 기반으로 분석을 실시했다. 연구결과 연구 개발 직군의 실행공동체 활동에 있어 개인요인, 상호작용요인, 지원요인은 만족도에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤으나 환경요인은 크게 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 실행공동체 만족도가 높을수록 학습문화 활성화에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 연구개발 직군의 실행공동체 활동 강화가 조직문화 개선에 도움을 줄 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특히 연구개발 직군의 경우 성숙도에 따른 집단차이가 크게 나타나지 않아 성숙도 보다는 실행공동체 내 상호작용 요인을 강화하는 것이 더욱 중요하다는 사실을 알 수 있다.

농업은 작물잔사, 가축분뇨, 음식쓰레기 등의 지역자원을 퇴비화하여 이용하는 순환산업이며, 작물 생육은 빛, 물, 공기, 온도 및 양분 등이 필요하며 유해물질이 없어야한다. 유용미생물처리 음식쓰레기와 계분혼합물 횡형 밀폐원통형 교반방식 퇴비화처리시설에서 얻어진 최종퇴비는 발아율, 산소호흡지수 및 염분농도 등의 수치가 작물 생육에 유해하므로 부적합하였다. 생산된 유용미생물처리 음식쓰레기와 계분혼합물 퇴비를 분석한 결과, 퇴비공정규격, 건물기준 유기물 함량 60% 이상, 유기물대 질소비 50 이하, 탄질비 20 이하를 충족하고, 중금속함량이 미량 함유된 것으로 나타났으나, 발아율이 60% 이하, 칼리 성분이 1.2%,dm 이상 및 염분농도가 1.4%, dm 이상 등으로서 부적합한 것으로 판정되었다. 생물계폐기물 자원순환을 위한 유용미생물처리 고속퇴비화시설의 건설은 환경 친화적인 양질퇴비생산으로서 지역자원을 순환 이용하는 사회 구축이 목표이므로, 인근주민과 주변 환경에 악영향을 차단하기 위하여 양질퇴비 생산과 함께, 오폐수, 분진, 소음, 진동, 악취 및 이물질을 분리 배출하는 고효율설비가 부수적으로 반드시 필요하였다.
