At five stations in Gyeongan River, a tributary of Lake Paldang, physicochemical and biological environmental factors of water, particulate matters, and sediments were investigated biweekly from April 11 to December 22 in 2001. The studied area was characterized as a stream-lake system. The system is primarily referred to a place where the environmental factors had considerably changed depending on the amount of precipitation. As a result, the river turned out to be strongly eutrophicated. Also, some characteristics of the water and the particulate matters at midstream such as average concentrations of conductivity, nutrients, and chlorophyll $\alpha$ were higher than the characteristics of up and down-stream. However, the concentrations of organic matters and ratio of clay and silt of the midstream were determined to be higher than up and down-stream sediments. As the result of the factor analysis, 4 major different patterns for environmental factors are found from samples of water, particulate matters, and sediments.

Pollutants from industry, mining, agriculture, and other sources have contaminated sediments in many surface water bodies. Sediment contamination poses a severe threat to human health and environment because many toxic contaminants that are barely detectable in the water body can accumulate in sediment at much higher levels, the purpose of this study was to make convenient sampling method and optimal treatment of sediment for water quality improvement in reservoir or stream based on an evaluation of degree of contamination. Results for analysis of S-reservoir sediments were observed that copper concentration of almost areas were higher than the regulation of soil pollution (50 mg/1) for the riverbed. S-stream sediments were observed that copper, arsenic and TPH concentration of almost areas were exceeded soil pollution concerning levels for factorial areas. We used Remscreen(version. 1.0) program which is contaminated soil recovery program to select optimal treatment method of contaminant sediments. The result was shown in the order of Thermal Calcination > Excavation, Retrieval and Off-site Disposal(comparative less then contaminant) > Low Temperature Thermal Desorption + Solidification/Stabilization.

In order to examine the contamination levels of trace elements in stream sediments in the Chungnam coal mine area, stream sediment and water samples were collected and analyzed for trace elements. The pH of stream water was neutral or weak-alkaline and the mobility of metal in stream sediments was supposed to be low. From the result of cluster analysis, non-polluted sampling stations can be distinguished from polluted sampling stations influenced by mining activities. The trace element concentrations in sediments from non-polluted zone were considered to be the natural backround concentrations of this area. The trace element concentrations in sediment samples from the mining area were higher than those from non-polluted area, and contaminated area of enriched trace element levels need to be properly managed. From the results of discriminant and regression analyses, concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb AND zN and predicted values of Be, Mo, and Ni in Chungnam coal mine area were found to be lower than those in metal mining areas in Korea.

Sediments deposited on lateral drain pipes in a tunnel make lateral porous pipes clogged. Since the safety of the tunnel can be affected by this phenomenon, it requires a regular maintenance of the lateral drain pipes. In this study, a series of centrifugal tests were conducted in order to find out the method which can reduce the clogging effect considerably. Four different types of tunnel drain configurations were selected in the experiments. By analysis of sediments for each configuration, the optimum drain configuration that can minimize sedimentation of cement constituents was investigated. As a results, the existing drain configuration which uses filter concrete appear to produce much sediments. In contrast, the new drain configuration appears to be able to reduce sedimentation ratio up to almost 50% comparing with the existing one. From these observations, it may be concluded that the new drain configuration, in which the lateral porous pipes of a tunnel are surrounded by gravel layer and non-woven geotextile, has high efficiency in maintenance.

In order to study the general characteristics of reservoir and stream sediments, various analysis tests were conducted. Water contents and ignition loss were measured to know the primary sediment characteristics. The COD, total phosphorus and nitrogen were contained for the determination of organic substance content. For the purpose of establishing the contamination degree of heavy metals, some heavy metal contents were investigated. In heavy metal contents, reservoir sediments showed somewhat higer value than stream sediments. As a result, the reservoir sediment content of all analysis items were higher than stream sediment.

This paper deals with grain size analysis, heavy mineral analysis and trace element analysis of the recent sediments of Han River basin between Cheongpyong, Gyeonggi province and Seoul. For each location the samples are taken at river shoreline, river berm and river dune. The size analysis discloses that the mean values range from $-1.37{\phi}$ to $-1.60{\phi}$, sorting values range from 0.25 to 1.84, skewness values range from -0.44 to 0.51 and kurtosis values range from -0.1 to 1.75. Based on the textural parameters, the dune sand can be distinguished from the shoreline-berm sand. The content of heavy minerals of each sample ranges from 0.04 to 4.7%. The principal heavy minerals are ilmenite, magnetite, leucoxene, garnet, amphibole, pyroxene, kyanite, zircon, monazite, tourmaline, epidote, limonite, and minor minerals are apatite, sillimanite, andalusite and olivine. In general, dune sand samples contain more heavy minerals than the samples of shoreline or berm sand. This suggests that the heavy mineral concentration is affected by wind action more than by any other causes. The content of ilmenite and leucoxene decreases, whereas the content of zircon and epidote increases as it approaches the downstream region. The differences result from the variance of geological occurrences. The emission spectrochemical analysis and colorimetry analysis revealed that the content of Ni and V in the heavy minerals of the study area are higher than those of other stream sediments in Korea. On the other hand the content of Cu, Ph, Zn, Mo, W, P, Mn, Cr, Ag and Sn are lower in the study area. It has been observed also that the contents of all the elements except for Bi are higher in this area than the samples of marine sediments of Yellow Sea.

동중국해는 황하(Huanghe), 장강(Changjiang) 및 한국의 여러 강들로부터 많은 양의 퇴적물을 공급받는 것으로 알려져 있으며, 각 강들의 영향 및 퇴적과정을 밝혀내기 위해 많은 연구가 수행되었으나, 의견일치가 이루어지지 못하였다. 본 연구에서는 동중국해 퇴적물의 기원지 및 퇴적 환경 유추를 위해, 99MAP-P63 코어 퇴적물에 대해 입도, 점토광물 및 희토류원소 분석을 수행하였다. 점토광물 분석 결과, 일라이트(illite)의 함량이 가장 높고, 카올리나이트(kaolinite) 및 녹니석(chlorite), 스멕타이트(smectite)의 순으로 풍부하며, 점토광물을 이용한 99MAP-P63 퇴적물의 기원지는 깊이에 관계없이 모두 장강인 것으로 판단된다. 희토류원소 분석 결과, 99MAP-P63 퇴적물들은 중국 강 퇴적물의 희토류원소 함량과 매우 유사하다. 따라서 99MAP-P63 퇴적물들의 기원지는 장강이며, 한국 강의 영향은 미미하거나 없을 것으로 판단된다. 99MAP-P63 퇴적물은 대체로 사질 실트로 구분되지만, 코어의 최상부는 모래의 함량이 85 %인 사질로 구분된다. 주변 코어들과 비교한 결과, 사질 실트는 해수면이 낮았던 저수위기(lowstand stage)에 해당되며, 장강의 고수로를 통해 퇴적물들이 직접 공급되었을 것으로 판단된다. 코어 최상부의 사질 퇴적물은 해침기(transgressive stage)에 해당되며 해수면 상승으로 인해 강 하구와의 거리는 멀어졌지만, 현재보다 높은 해저면의 응력으로 인해 조립질 퇴적물들이 공급될 수 있었으며, 인근에 퇴적되었던 고 장강(paleo-Changjiang) 퇴적물들이 재동된 것으로 해석된다.

해양 퇴적물내 함유된 총탄소(total carbon; TC), 총무기탄소(total inorganic carbon; TIC)와 총유기탄소(total organic carbon; TOC)의 정량적 이해는 해양 저서 퇴적 환경 해석을 위한 기본 자료이다. 원소분석기(elemental analyzer; EA)는 내륙 토양 및 해양 퇴적물의 탄소성분 분석에 많이 이용되고 있다. 원소분석기로 분석한 표준시료샘플(soil reference material; SRM)의 탄소 및 질소함량은 평균 2.30%와 0.21%이었으며, 표준편차(standard deviation)는 각각 0.02, 0.01이었다, 상대표준편차(relative standard deviation; RSD)는 각각 0.01, 0.06으로 높은 정밀도를 나타내었다. 형도 부지의 총유기탄소(TOC) 2.0% 이하 샘플에 대해 총유기탄소(TOC)와 총탄소(TC) 분석치의 회귀분석은 기울기가 0.9743인 직선형 관계($R^2$=0.9989, n=38)를 보였으며, 2개 샘플을 제외한 총유기탄소 0.5% 이하의 총유기탄소량 및 평균입도의 관계 회귀분석 결과는 기울기가 0.0444인 직선형 관계($R^2$=0.6937 n=36)를 나타내었다. 형도 표층퇴적물의 총유기탄소(TOC) 함량은 0.10~1.67%(평균 $0.26{\pm}0.37%$) 범위로 S02 정점에서 1.67%, S07 정점에서 1.31%이고 나머지 점점은 1.00% 이하의 총유기탄소(TOC) 함량을 나타냈다. 주상퇴적물 PC 01 정점의 경우 70 cm 부근에서 총유기탄소(TOC)가 가장 높은 0.20%을 보였고, 주상퇴적물 PC 02 정점의 경우 60 cm 부근에서 가장 높은 0.24%를 나타내었다. 따라서 형도 샘플의 총유기탄소(TOC) 0.5% 이상 함유 샘플에 대해서는 탄산염 같은 무기탄소량이 높은 퇴적물 분석시 오차가 발생할수 있지만, 이와 같은 결과로부터 얻어진 유기탄소분석 방법은 해양 퇴적물의 유기탄소분석에 적용 될 수 있다. 그리고 원소분석기(EA) 정밀도 및 정확도로 해양 퇴적물 표층 및 주상 퇴적물 유기탄소분석 분석 실험에 유용 할 것으로 사료된다.

Early detection of bladder cancer is particularly important since it dramatically affects the survival rates. However, neither urinary cytology nor tumor markers that are currently used are sensitive enough for the early detection of bladder cancer or recurrent disease. The ras genes are frequently mutated in cancer. In this study, we investigated the diagnostic potential of ras mutation analysis in urinary sediments of patients with bladder cancer using a single-strand conformation polymorphism analysis and polymerase chain reaction. Mutation in codon 12 of the H-ras gene was observed in 39% of the patients. Our results indicate that this approach may significantly improve diagnostic sensitivity in detecting bladder tumors.

Environmental standards for beneficial uses of dredged materials are proposed. Even though chemical analysis of ocean sediments are carried out frequently, their analyses results were not interrelated with the effects of biological lives due to a shortage of biological data. These facts have resulted in difficulty to develope Korean's standards of recycling dredged materials. This paper first searched existing current foreign standards, analyzed local contaminated ocean sediment data, identified their main chemical components of contaminants, and then compared with clean-up standards of sediments consisting of lower and higher levels. From these analysis, new environmental standards considering Korean domestic circumstances are proposed. It is judged that new standards are appropriate to both Korean national sedimental environments and economically recycling aspects because environmental standard levels proposed are higher than background levels of sediments in Korean and foreign standards.
