This experiment was conducted to determine the responses of some pine species to acidity of cultured soils, and absorption behavior of alkaline elements and to observe the growth characteristics during afforesting period. The results were summarized as follows. 1. Total dry weight indicating growth volume was not much influenced by the acidity of cultured soils (pH 4~8) in all of the 4 species studied. Pinus koraiensis showed more dry weight than any other species, which indicated statistically significant difference. 2. T-R ratio of dry weight was not much affected by the acidity of cultured soils (pH 4~8) and the difference of cultured soils (pH 4~8) and by species. Growth phase also did not show remarkable change through the experiment period. 3. The average sodium content ratio in the plant body had no correlation with cultured soils (pH 4~8), bue significant differences were recognized among species statistically. 4. It was found that sodium content ratio was not much influenced by the cultured soils (pH 4~8), even when the tops and roots were separately analyzed. But, very significant difference was found among the species. Pinus koraiensis especially, showed greater volume growth maintaining low sodium content ratio than any other species, which indicates that Pinus koraiensis has unfavorable characteristics for growing on the seaside.

This study researched and compared the sedimentation environment and photosynthetic pigments at Gomso (GS) -bay, Yoja (YJ) -bay and KangJin (KJ) -bay in May, 2012. It was shown that KJ-bay consist of C (clay) and M (mud), and GS-bay consists of Zs (silty sand) and Sz (sandy silt). Averagely, IL of YJ-bay was 4.98%, KJ-bay 6.10%, and GS-bay 1.45%. As for COD concentration, there were no places that exceeded Japanese sediment contamination standard 20 mg/g-dry. As for AVS concentration, in case of KJ-bay, two places exceeded Japanese sediment contamination standard 0.2 mg/g-dry. If we look into the average C/N ratio of bays, YJ-bay showed 8.50, KJ-bay 6.60, and GS-bay 5.52, thus all of them showed the characteristic of oceanic origin. As for the plankton make-up classified by photosynthetic pigments, diatom was dominant, and both ratios of pigment and C/chlorophyll. a showed the relatively lower distribution at GS-bay than at KJ-bay and YJ-bay. It is judged that this is related to the characteristic of flow-in, and it implies that predation process and decomposition by organic matters actively occurs at YJ-bay and KJ-bay.

Laboratory analytical results of 22 sets of hydrophobic adsorbent coils containing surface soil-vapor and two soil samples collected by conventional intrusive method from each boring location at two active dry cleaning facilities in the State of Illinois, U.S.A, were presented to evaluate the performance of soil-vapor survey. The most critical factor to determine the effectiveness of soil-vapor survey is the distance from the soil-vapor sampling device to the actual contamination, which is a function of soil porosity, permeability, primary lithology, and other geological and hydrogeological site-specific parameters. Also this factor can be affected by the history of contaminant-generating operations. The laboratory analytical results in this study showed longer dry cleaning operation history (i.e., 50 years) and presence of fine sand at the beneath Site B allow the contaminants to migrate farther and deeper over a fixed time compared to Site A(i.e., 35 years and silty clay) so that the soil-vapor survey is not likely the most effective environmental site investigation method alone for Site B. However, for Site A, the soil-vapor survey successfully screened the site to identify the location reporting the highest soil concentration of chlorinated solvents.

The following results were obtained by the compression test of 3, 7, 14 and 28 days cured lime soil mixtures. The soil used in this test was clayey soil(sand : 20% silt : 45%, clay : 35%) and the rates of hydrated lime mixture for the dry weight of soil were 4, 8, 12, 19 and 20 percents. 1. The optimum moisture content increases and the maximum dry density decreases with the increase of the lime content. 2. The compacted moisture for the maximum strength in lime soil mixture increases with the increase of the lime content and the increase of curing periods. 3. The compressive strength increase of curing periods and its increasing ratio is largest at the 8 percent lime content. 4. The line content for the maximum strength decreases with increase of curing period and the largest strength shows at the 8 percent lime content when the curing period is over two weeks. 5. It seems to depend on the temperature effect that the compressive strength of lime soil mixtures cured in soil shows the lowest value. Accordingly, the effect of curing moisture does not influence to the strength of lime soil mixtures as much as the variation of curing temperature.

This study aims to investigate the food preservation methods adopted by the Joseon Dynasty, which existed before the 17^th century. A total of 232 food preservation methods were discovered in 25 books, and could be classified by their targeted food types: vegetables (84), sea foods (60), meats (41), fruits (37), and others (10). Depending on the preservation method applied, they are classified as food drying, soaking, mud cellar preservation, and other preservation. Food drying is further classified into 8 sub-types: drying, sun-drying, shadow-drying, wind-drying, dry heat, combined drying, smoking, and others. Soaking could be sub-divided into using salt, ash, dry sand, bran, fermented paste, wet distillers grains, oil, and others. Mud cellar preservation is sub-classified into installing shelf inside the mud cellar, making the mud cellar for food preservation, and making hole or underground tunnel for food preservation. Other food preservation methods include minimizing moisture loss by applying beeswax on a section of the vegetable stem, and cutting the vegetables or fruits with their branches and leaves for food preservation.

Experimental laboratory tests were carried out to assess the effect of fine content and salinity of soils on the measurement of TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry). In the test, using soil columm which was made by PVC pipe with the dimension of 25cm height and 20cm diameter, the salinity variation of soil was controlled by the solution which was dissolved NaCl to destilled water in the range of 0-40g.$L^-1$. The fine content of soil was controlled by kaolinite which was mixed with Jumunjin sand in the range of 0-50% to the total dry weight. The water contents of soil tested were measured with the conventional oven dry method beside TDR and compared the these values to figure out the extent of effect. As the results of tests, it was appeared that the water content measurement by TDR can be affected by the salinity level, fine contents, and the degree of saturation of the soil.

A SWP method is a revolutionary dewatering method. The conventional dewatering method, deep-well method, had ever occurred a civil appeal caused by the well depletion in compliance with the reduction of the groundwater level over a wider area considerably by the deep-well pumping from homogeneous sand-layer ground for a dry-work, while pump groung excavation working in Sendai city, Japan 10 years ago. it'd developed with the problematic proposal to find the new method which can lower the groundwater level only within the sheet pile without any reduction of groundwater outside of the sheet pile and until currently steady improvement came. It's been confirmed with plenty of executional results that there was almost no decreasing of water-level from surroundings, over so many construction-sites including vertical shafts which completely does not enter into non-water permeable layer and pumping ground etc. The SWP method in this time has been introducing initially and carried into a the execution tentatively at a construction-site and made a various result get through the execution.

The cemented sand and gravel (CSG) method is a construction technique that adds cement and water to rock-like materials, such as rivered gravel or excavation muck which that can be obtained easily at areas adjacent to dam sites. This study was performed to evaluate the unconfined compressive strength properties and freezing and thawing resistance of CSG materials with unit cement content. The three types of CSG-80, CSG-100 and CSG-120 with cement content were designed to evaluate the optimum water content, dry density, strength, stress-strain, micro structure and durability factor. As the results, the optimum water content ratio with cement content showed almost similar tendency, and the unconfined compressive strength and dry density increased as cement content increases. The strength ratio of 7 days for 28 days were in the range of 55~61 % and the strain ratio in stress-strain curve were in the range of 0.8~1.6 % nearby maximum strength in 28 days. It is expected that this study will contribute to increasing application of CSG method as well as to increasing the utilizing of CSG materials as a environmentally friendly CSG method.

The hydraulic anisotropic behavior of unsaturated soil has not been fully explored in relation to the grain-size distribution. The present study conducted laboratory assessments to examine the hydraulic anisotropy condition of statically compacted specimens in various initial states. The investigation incorporated the concept of hydraulic anisotropy by employing two discrete forms of soil stratification: horizontal-layering (HL) and vertical-layering (VL). The examined soils comprised sandy silt and silty sand, exhibiting either unimodal or bimodal soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC). This study aimed to investigate the potential correlation between the hydraulic anisotropy ratio and soil properties. The present study established a correlation between the hydraulic anisotropy ratio and several soil parameters, including fine content, dry density, plastic limit, and liquid limit. The study results indicate a non-linear relationship between the percentage of fine and dry density in soils with unimodal and bimodal soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) and hydraulic anisotropy ratio.
