최근 들어 어업세력은 경제성 악화로 인해 계속해서 내리막길을 걷고 있는 상황에 처해 있으며, 생활수준 향상과 주5일 근무로 인한 해양 레저 관광객의 증가로 인해 침적 해양폐기물은 계속해서 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 또한 매립, 간척사업 등으로 인해 어장의 면적은 계속해서 축소되고 있으며, 육상과 해상에서 기인한 각종 오염물질로 인한 해양오염으로 어장 파괴는 지속적으로 이루어지고 있다. 이와 같은 결과로 인해 정부는 어장을 보호하고 어업 여건을 향상시키기 위해 침적 해양 폐기물 수거사업을 시행하고 있다. 해양환경과 자원들에 대한 연구결과들은 바다라는 특수한 상황에서 가시적인 해양환경과 어업여건의 개선에 대한 결과들을 얻기까지에는 많은 시간을 투자해야한다는 것을 간접적으로 알려주고 있다. 2004년 7월부터 2013년까지 10년 동안 약 3천억 원을 투자해서 해양환경 조사사업들이 진행되고 있어, 효과적인 성과들을 얻기 위해서는 보다 전략적인 접근에 의한 사업이 진행되어야 한다. 일반시민과 정부에서 점차적으로 해양환경에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있어, 해양환경 관련 조사사업들을 진행하는 연구기관들은 효율적이고 합리적인 결과를 얻기 위해 관련 사업들과 상호협력이 필요하다. 이러한 배경으로 해양환경 및 자원조사와 침적 해양폐기물 수거사업이 동일해역에서 상호 협의된 조사항목에 대해 병행하는 방식으로 추진된다면 해양환경과 어업여건의 개선과 더불어 비용 효과적 결과들을 얻을 수 있을 것이다.

This study was conducted to investigate the productivity, meat quality, blood variables, stress responses, and litter quality of broilers offered feed with different levels of Glycine (Gly) supplementation under heat stress condition. A total of 760 one-day-old Ross 308 broiler males were randomly assigned to one of the four dietary treatment groups: (1) basal diet (control; CON); (2) basal diet + Gly 0.1% (Gly 0.1%); (3) basal diet + Gly 0.2% (Gly 0.2%); and (4) basal diet + Gly 0.3% (Gly 0.3%). The environments for all the treatments groups were maintained according to broiler rearing guidelines from day 1 to day 21, and heat stress condition (32 ± 1℃, 60 ±5%) was created from day 22 to the end. The addition of Gly increased weight gain and affected feed intake (p < 0.05). Gly 0.1% group had higher pH and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) in the chicken meat and lower heterophil (HE)/lymphocyte (LY) ratio in the blood (p < 0.05). In particular, Gly 0.2% treatment group had lower serum corticosterone level (p < 0.05) than other groups. For jejunum morphology, the addition of Gly 0.2% significantly reduced the depth of the crypts (p < 0.05). However, the addition of Gly did not significantly affect litter quality (p > 0.05). In conclusion, the addition of glycine improved productivity and meat quality, alleviated heat stress, and improved intestinal function. Further studies are needed to determine the optimal level and mechanism of action of the additive when ingested.

본 연구는 질소 시비에 의해 증가된 토양 질소가 식물의 성장 및 식물체의 화학적 조성에 미치는 영향과 이로 인한 분해에서의 변화를 확인하고자 야외성장실험과 분해실험을 진행하였다. 온실에서 질소 시비구와 비시구 토양에 각각 벼를 재배하였으며 식물이 성숙한 뒤 수확하여 C, N, lignin, cellulose 함량을 측정하였다. 대조구와 질소 처리구 토양에서 재배된 식물의 개체 당 평균 건중량은 각각 0.70 g, 1.32 g로 질소 시비에 의해 1.9배 증가하였다. 식물체의 N 및 C 함량은 질소 시비에 의해 증가하였고 lignin, C/N, lignin/N, cellulose/N은 감소하였다. 이후, 수확된 식물의 지상부는 microcosm 분해실험에 이용되었으며, 분해 식물체에서 건중량의 변화, microbial biomass C와 microbial biomass N, 그리고 dehydrogenase와 urease 활성을 측정하고, 분해과정 중 발생하는 $CO_2$의 양을 정량하였다. 대조구 토양에서 분해시킨 대조구 식물체와 질소 처리구 식물체, 그리고 질소를 처리한 토양에서 분해시킨 질소 처리구 식물체의 잔존량은 각각 초기 건중량의 53.0%, 47.1%, 53.6%를 나타내었다. 질소 시비는 식물체에서 N 함량을 높이고 C/N 및 lignin/N을 낮추어 식물체의 분해를 촉진하였으나, 분해 과정에서의 토양 질소처리는 분해를 억제하였다. 질소 시비에 의해 토양에서 microbial biomass C와 dehydrogenase 활성은 감소하였고, 반면에 microbial biomass N과 urease 활성은 증가하였다. 분해 중 발생한 $CO_2$의 양은 30일 이후부터 질소 시비에 의해 감소하였다. 분해 식물체에서 측정된 microbial biomass C는 질소 처리에 의해 초기에 증가하였으나 이후 저해되는 양상을 나타냈으며 microbial biomass N은 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 질소 시비에 의해 분해 식물체에서 dehydrogenase 활성은 저해되었으며 urease는 분해 초기에 가장 높은 활성을 보였으나 분해 후기에 현저한 감소를 나타냈다. 본 실험에서 질소 시비는 식물의 성장을 증가시키고 식물체의 N 함량을 높여 화학적 조성의 변화를 일으키며 분해율을 증가시키나 분해 단계에서 질소의 시비는 미생물의 활성을 억제시켜 분해를 저해하는 결과를 나타내었다.

This research compared the observed and model predicted results that include; runoff, sediment yield, and nutrient losses from a 2.71 ha cattle grazing pasture field in North Alabama. Application of water quality computer simulation models can inexpensively and quickly assess the impact of pasture management practices on water quality. AGNPS single storm based model was applied to the three pasture species; Bermudagrass, fescue, and Ryegrass. While comparing model predicted results with observed data, it showed that model can reasonably predict the runoff, sediment yield and nutrient losses from the watershed. Over-prediction and under-prediction by the model occurred during very high and low rainfall events, respectively. The study concluded that AGNPS model can be reasonably applied to assess the impacts of pasture management practices and chicken litter application on water quality.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary energy and crude protein (CP) levels on reproductive performance, litter performance, milk quality, and blood profiles in gestating sows. A total of 59 multiparous sows (Yorkshire ${\times}$ Landrace) with similar body weights (BW), backfat thickness (BF), and parity were assigned to one of six treatments with 9 or 10 sows per treatment using a $2{\times}3$ factorial arrangement and completely randomized design. The first factor was two levels of dietary metabolizable energy (ME) density (13.40 or 13.82 MJ/kg) and the second factor was three dietary protein levels based from 35 day in gestating phases (10.5%, 12%, and 13.5%). Backfat thickness change in lactating sows decreased linearly as CP level increased (p = 0.03). Increased energy level in the gestating sow diet tended to increase the total number of piglets born (p = 0.07), but piglet weight decreased (p = 0.02). Dietary CP level had a negative effect on colostrum quality. Casein, protein, total solid, and solids-not-fat concentrations decreased linearly and lactose level increased linearly as CP level in the gestating sow diet increased (casein%: p = 0.03; protein%: p = 0.04; lactose%: p = 0.06; total solids: p = 0.03; solid-not-fat: p = 0.03, respectively). However, improving ME by 0.42 MJ/kg had no significant effect on the chemical composition of sow colostrum. There were no significant differences in blood glucose concentration in gestating sows when sows were fed different levels of energy during gestation, but blood glucose increased at 21 day of lactation when energy increased by 0.42 MJ/kg (p = 0.04). Blood urea nitrogen concentration increased linearly when dietary CP levels increased at 110 day in gestation, 24-hours postpartum, and 21 days of lactation (linear, p < 0.05, p < 0.05, and p < 0.05, respectively), and it also increased when dietary energy increased at 110 days of gestation and 24-hours postpartum (p < 0.01, and p < 0.01, respectively). A gestating sow diet containing 13.82 MJ/kg ME and 10.5% CP can improve reproductive performance, litter performance, and colostrum quality.

Options available for utilization of animal wastes include sources of plant nutrients, feed ingredients for farm animals, substrate for methane generation, and substrate for microbial and insect protein synthesis. The wastes have the most economic value for use as animal feed. Performance of animals fed diets containing animal wastes is similar to that of animals fed conventional diets. Processing of animal wastes to be used as animal feed is necessary for destruction of pathogens, improvement of handling and storage characteristics, and maintenance or enhancement of palatability. Feeding of animal waste has not adversely affected the quality and taste of animal products. In the USA copper toxicity has been reported in sheep fed high-copper poultry litter, but this is not a serious problem with cattle. Potential pathogenic microorganisms in animal wastes are destroyed by processing such as heat treatment, ensiling and deep stacking. Incidents of botulism, caused by Clostridium botulinum, have been reported in cattle in some countries, and this problem was caused by the presence of poultry carcasses in litter. This problem has not occurred in the USA. With appropriate withdrawal, heavy metal, pesticide or medicinal drug accumulation in edible tissues of animals fed animal wastes is not a problem. Feeding of animal wastes is regulated by individual states in the USA. The practice is regulated in Canada, also. With good management, animal wastes can be used safely as animal feed.

Objectives : To compare the objective differences in voice quality and voice problems between clergies and normal male control group. Materials and Methods : The sustained vowel sound of 46 clergies and 40 normal persons were analyzed, using a videostroboscopy and acoustic analyzer. Together with these analyses, a questionnaire associated with current and past voice problems was handed over to the patients. Results : The most common symptom in subjective group was the voice fatigue. Stroboscopic findings in subjective group were as following 23 cases(50%) of pachydermia, 17 cases(37%) of phase difference, 12 cases(25%) of anterior-posterior contracture, 6 cases(13%) of vocal polyp and 3 cases(7%) of vocal nodule. The mean maximal phonation time in clergies was 17.8 seconds and in control group was 19 seconds. litter, pitch perturbation quotient and shimmer were significantly increased in subjective group than in control group(p<0.05), but there were no significant differences between two groups in fundamental frequency, vFo, amplitude perturbation quotient and noise to harmonic ratio. Conclusion : In the clergies using loud and forceful voice, vocal polyp and functional voice disorder findings were frequently noted in stroboscopic examination. litter and shimmer, reflecting the roughness of voice, were increased in acoustic analysis. Therefore, clergies, classified into untrained professional voice users, need professional career guidance and counseling.

Objective: The QingYu pig is well known for its excellent meat quality attributes in Sichuan province, China. In order to improve its production efficiency, the determination of genetic factors contributing to quantifiable economic traits of livestock is important. Moreover, the cross-breeding of QingYu pigs with western breeds possessing strong growth attributes is an efficient way to improve the performance of this breed. Methods: Here, the genetic parameters of several important reproductive traits of QingYu pigs were estimated, include total number born (TNB), number born alive, litter birth weight, individual birth weight, number of piglets weaned, litter weaning weight, and individual weaning weight. The data was analyzed using the ASReml 3.0 software (NSW Inc., Sydney, Australia). Furthermore, the effects of crossing Berkshire with QingYu (BQ) pigs on carcass and meat quality traits, as well as the effects of slaughter weight on carcass and meat quality of BQ were characterized. Results: QingYu pigs exhibited superior reproductive traits. The TNB available to QingYu pigs was more than 8 per parity. The observed repeatability of the reproductive traits of the QingYu pigs was between 0.10 and 0.23. The significantly correlated genetic and phenotypic of reproduction traits were consistent. Interestingly, the BQ pigs exhibited improved carcass quality, with a significant increase in loin muscle area, lean percentage and reduction in sebum percentage. As a result, BQ had higher L_45min, lower cooking scores, and lower drip loss. In addition, the loin muscle area, body length, and sebum percentage were significantly higher in 90 and 100 kg animals. Cooking loss showed a significant increase at 80 kg, and marbling increased significantly from 90 kg. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that QingYu pigs exhibit excellent reproductive properties and heritability of these traits. Crossing with Berkshire is an efficient strategy to improve the carcass and meat quality of QingYu pigs for commercial operations. Furthermore, it appears as though the optimal slaughter weight of BQ pigs is at approximately 90 kg.
