  • A new species of free-living marine nematode is described from intertidal sediments of the East Sea, Korea. Phanoderma koreense sp. nov. is characterized by the presence of well-developed pharyngeal and cephalic capsule, six inner labial sensilla present as minute papillae around with circular groove, long and slender spicules with 4-5 serrated distal end, located at the base of the precloacal supplement, a series of eight to nine stout and short setae on the ventral cloacal region and conico-cylindrical tail with two pairs of blunt setae. In this study, we provide taxonomic descriptions and illustrations of a new species by differential interference contrast microscope and a pictorial key to the valid species of Phanoderma Bastian, 1865. This is the first record of the genus Phanoderma in the East Sea, Korea.

  • Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been shown to interfere with physiological systems, i.e., adversely affecting hormone balance (endocrine system), or disrupting normal function, in the female and male reproductive organs. Although endocrine disruption is a global concern for human health, its impact and significance and the screening strategy for detecting these synthetic or man-made chemicals are not clearly understood in female and male reproductive functions. Thus, in this review, we summarize the interference of environmental EDCs on reproductive development and function, and toxicological mechanism(s) of EDCs in in vitro and in vivo models of male and female reproductive system. In addition, this review highlights the effect of exposure to multiple EDCs on reproductive functions, and brings attention to their toxicological mechanism(s) through estrogen receptors.

  • Hydroxlamine effect on the determination of dissolved oxygen by the azide-modified Winkder method and polarography has been studied. It was found that hydroxylamine interference on the dissolved oxygen by the azide-modified Winklet method can be eliminated completely by using permanganate. An inexpensive and convenient polarograph device was constructed. Dissolved oxygen in an air-saturated 0.1 F KCl solution undergoes, independent of hydroxylamine concentrations a two-step irreversible reduction at the dropping electrode the $H_2O_2$ produced in the first step is reduced to $H_2$O in the second. Two waves of equal size result, the first with a half-wave potential (E1/2) at about -0.13 V and the second at about -0.91 V (vs. SCE).

  • PAM(Power Amplifier Module) is the important part of a mobile phone transmitter. It amplifies the strength of signal transmitting from a mobile phone to base stations enough to resist noise or interference. In this paper reliability assessment criteria for the PAM are established in terms of quality certification test and lifetime test. The former quality certification test comprises general performance test and environmental test. Items which pass the test undergo lifetime test which guarantees the extent of mean lifetime with certain confidence.

  • The Electromagnetic Interference could occur due to power line on the telecommunication service. The Countermeasure is practised by legal law. Various affecting factors are described in the law. In this paper, an effect by pipeline especially in the ground, power feeding plant, and curved railway sector is analyzed as environmental factors which are not included in the law. By the practical measurement, it appears that the measured voltages on the spots with underground pipeline are grouped into lower voltage level, induced voltage tends to be high near power feeding plant, and also in the curved railway line. These analytical results can be meaningly considered in the application of countermeasure.

  • Admirandus multicavus Belogurov and Belogurova, 1979, a new record of free-living marine nematode species belonging to family Oncholaimidae is reported based on the specimens collected from the intertidal sediments of Korea. Admirandus multicavus is characterized by the following unique characteristics: cephalic setae (1-2 ㎛ long), spicules (71-126 ㎛ long) and gubernaculum (15-31 ㎛ long), midventral preanal supplementary organ, three glandular duct openings of the Demanian system, and stoma length measuring twice the width. A comparative analysis of the biogeographical and ecological characteristics of Admirandus species is presented. DIC (Differential interference contrast) photomicrographs of the species are also provided herein. This report represents the first taxonomic analysis of the genus Admirandus Belogurov and Belogurova, 1979 discovered from the Korean seawaters.

  • 위성기반 보강시스템은 위성항법시스템 사용자의 측위 정확도를 향상 시킬 수 있는 보정정보를 위성을 이용하여 방송하는 시스템으로, 특히 항행분야에서 많이 활용되고 있다. 위성기반 보강시스템을 항행분야에서 활용하기 위해서는 정확성뿐만 아니라 무결성, 지속성, 가용성, 서비스 영역 등의 요구사항을 만족해야한다. 기준국은 보정정보 생성을 위한 측정치를 수집하는 기반 시스템으로서, 기준국의 환경, 위치, 분포 등은 위성기반 보강시스템의 성능을 결정하는 중요한 요소이다. 따라서 위성기반 보강시스템의 기준국 선정을 위해서는 사이트 조사를 통한 환경 분석이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 우리나라 해양수산부에서 운영 중인 NDGPS 기준국을 위성기반 보강시스템의 기준국으로 공동 활용한다는 전제하에 NDGPS 기준국 사이트 중 일부의 환경 분석을 수행한다. 기준국 환경 분석은 GPS 위성의 가시성과 전파환경에 대하여 분석하며, 이로부터 기준국 사이트 조사를 위한 간략한 절차와 요구사항을 제시한다.

  • Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is a promising tool to measure isotope ratios of individual uranium particles in environmental samples for nuclear safeguards. However, the analysis requires prior identification of a small number of uranium particles that coexist with a large number of other particles without uranium. In the present study, this identification was performed by scanning electron microscopy - energy dispersive X-ray analysis with automated particle search mode. The analytical results for an environmental sample taken at a nuclear facility indicated that the observation of backscattered electron images with × 1000 magnification was appropriate to efficiently identify uranium particles. Lower magnification (less than × 500) made it difficult to detect smaller particles of approximately 1 μm diameter. After identification, each particle was manipulated and transferred for subsequent isotope ratio analysis by SIMS. Consequently, the isotope ratios of individual uranium particles were successfully determined without any molecular ion interference. It was demonstrated that the proposed technique provides a powerful tool to measure individual particles not only for nuclear safeguards but also for environmental sciences.

  • The goals of this study were to development Natural Ecosystem Value Assessment Model, to suggest the practical applicability of the Natural Ecosystem value assessment for development areas, and to assess natural ecosystem quantitatively using GIS. The Model can evaluate Natural Ecosystem Value between before and after land developments. To select indicators for the model, we conducted the literature reviews. and six indicators and the standard of evaluation had been developed through the expert interviews and literature reviews. the relative importance of the evaluation index throught two times expert questionnaires was found out. the Natural Ecosystem Value Assessment Model has been established, The results demonstrate that although the suggested six indicators are arranged by priority, to maintain quantitative and qualitative the natural ecosystem value, all indicators are desirable to be maintained complementarily. The findings of this study suggest that the natural ecosystem value assessment model appears to be effective an assessment for damaged natural environment value and possible to assign a score value. Also, this model can be applied to research areas and has implications to help maintain the natural ecosystem in land development districts.

  • 노지 정밀농업에서 작물의 생육환경 측정을 위한 무선 센서 네트워크 기술이 중요시되고 있지만 무선 신호는 다양한 전파장애 요인들에 의해 통신 장애가 발생할 수 있다. 이 논문은 노지 관수를 위해 로라 기반 환경 모니터링과 일기예보 정보수집 시스템을 설계 및 구현하고 이를 테스트베드에 적용하였다. 그리고 장애물이 있는 환경과 장애물이 없는 환경, 비 오는 날과 비 오지 않은 날 각각에 대하여 사설 로라 네트워크의 패킷 손실률을 비교 분석하였으며, 장애물이 있는 로라 네트워크는 강우량이 많은 날은 패킷손실에 민감함을 알 수 있었다.
