  • Hazardous work zones (i.e., hot, warm, and cold) are typically established by emergency response teams during hazardous materials (HAZMAT) calls but less consistently for fire responses to segment personnel and response activities in the immediate geographic area around the fire. Despite national guidelines, studies have documented the inconsistent use of respiratory protective equipment by firefighters at the fire scene. In this case-series report, we describe warm zone gas levels using multigas detectors across five independent fire incident responses all occurring in a large South Florida fire department. Multigas detector data collected at each fire response indicate the presence of sustained levels of volatile organic compounds in the "warm zone" of each fire event. These cases suggest that firefighters should not only implement strategies for multigas detector use within the warm zone but also include respiratory protection to provide adequate safety from toxic exposures in the warm zone.

  • 본 연구에서는 화학사고 및 화학테러 대응 시 화학물질로부터 인명 및 환경을 보호하기 위한 경계구역 설정에 관하여 국·내외 사례 조사를 바탕으로 우리나라 실정에 적합한 경계구역 선정 개선방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 현재 다양한 관계부처에서는 공통적으로 hot zone, warm zone, cold zone으로 구분하여 사용 중이나 특정 지역에 대해서는 용어 활용 측면에서 상이한 의미로 혼용되고 있다. 따라서 경계구역을 기존 3개 지역에서 hot zone, warm zone, cold zone, safety zone 4개 지역으로 구분하여 활용할 것을 제시하였다. 그리고 warm zone을 관심지역, safety zone을 안전지역으로 용어를 정립하도록 한다. 기존에 적용하던 ERPG 급성노출기준은 다양한 노출시간을 고려하지 않기 때문에 장시간 노출상황 적용에 적합하지 않으므로 적용 우선순위를 AEGL, ERPG, PAC, IDLHs 순으로 하도록 한다. CARIS 정보제공 방안은 확산평가가 가능한 물질 또는 불가능한 물질이거나 실내누출 상황으로 구분하고 풍향신뢰선과 ERG의 초기이격거리 및 방호활동거리를 함께 표현하여 현장대응 및 주민대피 결정 정보자료로 활용될 수 있도록 한다.

  • The results obtained are as follows; 1. The variation of the temperature in a vinyl house without heating system is similar to that of air temperature in a day. The difference of maximum temperature and minimum one in a day is 27$^{\circ}C$ which is two times greater than the daily difference of air temperature. 2. When the length of the duct is increased, the high temperature zone is built up in the direction of warm air discharge from the duct, and the low temperature zone is built up in the opposite direction of warm air discharge. But, in case of the duct length is short (0.05 L), the temperature distrubution in a vinyl house become uniform. It is concluded that the shorter length of the duct, the better the distribution of the temperature in a vinyl house is. 3. When the duct is installed at high position, the high temperature zone is built up in the upper zone of the vinyl house and the low temperature zone is built up in the lower zone. And when the position of the duct is low, the rate of temperature variation along the vertical direction become high, and the direct contact of warm air with the plant in the house is occured. It is concluded that the duct should be installed at the position of slightly higher than the plant height. 4. When the fuel consumption rate is fixed at the 101/hr, the lowest temperature warming rate in the vinyl house is 5$^{\circ}C$ without regard to the air temperature.

  • This study aims at classifying and interpreting on the shrine forest vegetation located in Jirisan national park affiliated to an ecotone in southern part of Korea, foreseeing a vegetation change based on composition species and dominant species on canopy, and proposing the direction of vegetation management. The shrine forests were classified into the 7 community units as Chamaecyparis obtusa-Cryptomeria japonica afforestation, Pinus densiflora community, Pinus rigida afforestation, Quercus variabilis-Quercus serrata community, Zelkova serrata-Kerria japonica for. japonica community, Phyllostachys bambusoides forest, Camellia japonica community. This research is also expatiated on the analogous results of ordination analysis with phytosociological analysis. The constituents of deciduous broad-leaved forest in the warm temperate zone were appeared in the most vegetations. It emerged less that the constituents of evergreen broad-leaved forest in the warm-temperate zone and deciduous broad-leaved forest in the cold-temperature zone. The life form analyses were made use with the two ways: appearance species in total communities and each community. The species diversity of shrine forests is declined because the high dominances of Sasa borealis and Pseudosasa japonica emerged in the shrub and herb layers. These shrine forests will be succession to Q. variabilis-Q. serrata community as the representative vegetation of deciduous broad-leaved forest in the warm-temperate zone, owing to the temperature rise by global warming, and an evergreen broad-leaved forest will be able to be also formed if a temperate rise will be continued. The one of the artificial management of shrine forests is to consider the introduction of the constituents of evergreen broad-leaved forest in the warm-temperate zone.

  • Some features of vertical structure of the frontal interaction zone of the warm Kuroshio Current and cold Oyashio Current are known from 1930 from analysis of ship data. Ship data however do not allow carrying out the area detailed survey opposite to satellite infrared (IR) observations which possess by high spatial and temporal resolution. Analysis of NOAA AVHRR IR images demonstrated that process of formation and development of the Kuroshio warm core rings is highly complex. They are formed as a result of development of anticyclonic meanders of the warm Kuroshio waters and spin off them from the current. Joint analysis of thermal infrared images and altimetry data has also indicated that interaction of eddies to the frontal zone plays a crucial role in formation of large eddies moving to the Southern Kuril region.

  • 1996년 11월 동해에 형성된 전선역에서 동물플랑크톤의 분포를 살펴본 바, 그 양은 한수역보다는 작지만 난수역 보다는 큰 것으로 나타났고, 종 조성은 매우 풍부한 것으로 나타났다. 전선역의 동물플랑크톤 군집은 양적으로는 한류수의 영향을, 종류는 난류수의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 난수역과 한수역에서는 각 해역의 서로 다른 두 정점간에 채집 시간이 낮과 밤으로 차이가 있음에도 출현하는 동물플랑크톤의 종 조성과 분포 양상이 비슷하였지만, 전선역 두 정점에서는 하루중 비슷한 시간대에 채집되었음에도 종 조성과 분포 양상에 차이가 있었다. 이는, 전선역의 수괴 혼합 진행 정도를 반영하는 지리적 차이가 동물플랑크톤의 종 조성과 분포에 영향을 주고 있음을 의미한다. 한수역의 대표적인 요각류 Metri-dia pacinca 만이 주목할 만한 일주수직이동 양상을 보였으며, 이 종의 분포가 전체 동물플랑크톤의 분포 양상을 크게 좌우하였다. 그밖의 대부분 종들은 일주 수직이동이 매우 미약하였다. 수온이 동물플랑크톤의 분포에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 수온과 주요 우점 동물플랑크톤 분포량의 상관 관계는 난수역에서는 대체로 양의 상관관계를, 한수역에서는 매우 약한 음의 상관관계를, 그리고 전선역에서는 대부분 통계적 유의성이 없는 결과를 보였다.

  • Forest vegetation in Korea can be largely divided into warm temperate, cool temperate and frigid forest zone. The cool temperate forest zone of them occupies the largest part of the Korean peninsula and it is generally divided into three subdivisions such as northern, central and southern subzone. The Forestry Research Institute established three long-term ecological research sites at Kwangnung Experiment Forest in the central subzone of the cool temperate forest zone, at the Mt. Kyebangsan Forest in the northern subzone of the cool temperate forest zone. and at the Mt. Keumsan Forest in the warm temperate forest zone. The objectives of long-term ecological research in the Forestry Research Institute, Korea are to study long-term changes of the forest ecosystems in energy fluxes, water and nutrient cycling, forest stand structure, biological diversity, to quantify nutrient budgets and fluxes among forest ecosystem compartments and to integrate ecological data with a GIS - assisted model. To achieve the objectives, forest stand dynamics. environmental changes in soil properties, stream water quality, nutrient cycling, air pollution and biological diversity have been investigated and plant phonology as an indicator of climate change has been monitored in the LTER sites.

  • The purpose of this study was to suggest an improvement proposal for colors in urban environment with special regard to the surface color and their situations of apartment buildings in Seoul. For this goal, 167 cases of different color types of apartment buildings were surveyed. And, the survey was performed in the view of color by areas, by localtion, by builder, by paint year, by built year, by appearance of building, and by surface texture to prove the influencing factors on the surface colors. These collected data analyzed and compared with the existing studies to find out the changing trend of colors. The results are as follows : 1) The use of neutral gray($26.4{\%}$) and warm color(YR, Y, GY; 56.4%) were dominant and the usage trend of higher 'value'(87.4%) and lower 'saturation'(73.0%) was obvious. Especially, the use of PB and P was noticeable. 2) In comparing the existing studies, the changing trend in the surface color pattern was found. That is, neutral gray was used dominantly in 1970's, warm color(YR, Y)in the middle of 1980's. In the end of 1980's, warm color were also used dominantly same as before and GY, PB, P were used noticeably with some rising tendency of higher 'value' and lower 'saturation' was obvious. 3) The results of analysis by localtion shows that the different color groups might exist in Seoul city. Neutral gray and YR were dominant in zone I. Warm colors(YR, Y, GY)were prevailed in zone II, III, IV. In zone V, many colors were evenly used. In zone VI, middle values at warm color were dominant. Progressively, these color groups with further study could be considered in the color management in urban environment possibly. 4) Surface color of apartment buildings were different from their builders. 5) Concerned with the painted year, the use of higher 'value' and lower 'saturation' was increased gradually with the change of times. 6) the analysis by the built year revealed that the 'value' of surface colors on the old buildings was lower than that of the new ones. 7) The 'value' of colors on the surface with texture was higher than that of the surface without texture. 8) In the combination of two colors, the use of 'value' with difference at the same 'hue' was found harmonions in many cases, but the 'saturation' in usage was included in the ambiguity (Moon & Spencer's term). The ambiguity in color harmony should be improved in the near future.
