한강유역 조류경보제의 클로로필-a 농도는 남조류의 우점을 예측할 수 없어 본 연구에서는 남조류 개체수에 영향을 미치는 환경인자를 분석하여 남조류 우점 예측인자를 제시하였다. 2012년 1월~2013년 9월까지 하천의 계절변화에 따른 조류의 우점종을 분석한 결과, 저수온기인 1~4월에는 규조류, 5~6월에는 녹조류, 7~8월에는 남조류가 우점하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 남조류 개체수 증감에 영향을 미치는 영양염류(TN, TP), 기온, 강수량, 댐 방류량과의 상관성을 분석한 결과, 기온보다는 낮은 댐 방류량으로 댐 내의 체류시간이 길어져 남조류 개체수가 급속히 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 남조류 개체수와 TN:TP 농도 비를 분석한 결과 TN:TP 농도 비가 29 이하로 낮아질 때 남조류가 우점하는 것으로 분석되어 한강유역 조류경보제에 남조류 우점 예측인자인 TN:TP 농도 비를 도입할 필요가 있다.

This study is one of the processes to build the artificial wetlands in the urban area. The purpose of this study was to survey biotic or physical environments, and to review modelling techniques to find out the ecological structure and function. Case study site was the Bangdong wetland in the north west side of Taejon metropolitan city. The number of species of insects decreased during monitoring. But the number of individuals of insects decreased abruptly after increasing. And then biodiversity index dropped and dominance index increased. So the structure of biotopes was affected by weather conditions. And in the restricted area such as urban area, the changes of insects were affected sensitively by not physical but environmental changes. As for birds, the number of species was reduced a little, but the number of individuals increased abruptly. And dominance index increased slowly. The changes of water depth and increase of temperature affected the habitat condition of vegetations and birds, so the dominance index of specific species increased. In urban areas it is necessary to continue management for water environmental changes, such as the depth and area of water. The number of species of fishes was reduced a little, but the number of individuals increased abruptly. And dominance index and biodiversity index decreased slowly. But the water environments was so changeable that it is difficult to explain current status as some specific trends. The number of species of reptiles and amphibians changed little, but the number of individuals increased abruptly. And dominance and biodiversity were not changed. The changes of water depth and temperature affected the habitat of every species the environmental changes affected.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the causal relationships of need, self-esteem, body satisfaction on aesthetic surgery attitude of female. The method of the study was survey research by using questionnaires. Subjects were 813 females of 10's to 40's living in Daejeon Metropolitan City and Gongju City, Chungchungnamdo. Statistical analysis methods were one-way ANOVA. Duncan's multiple range test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. The results of the study were as follows. Women with lower body satisfaction and self-esteem had a tendency to keep the secret of aesthetic surgery. Women in higher social class and having higher need for dominance showed also strong tendency to keep the secret of aesthetic surgery. Women with lower body satisfaction and having higher needs for achievement and exhibition appreciated the value of aesthetic surgery more. Women with lower body satisfaction and self-esteem but with higher need for exhibition and dominance were more willing to confirm the aesthetic surgery Women with higher need for dominance but with lower self-esteem and body satisfaction were more willing to undergo aesthetic surgery in spite of high cost of surgery. Women having lower self-esteem, lower need for achievement, and lower body satisfaction were more willing to admit the risk tolerance of aesthetic surgery. As a conclusion, need, self-esteem, and body satisfaction constituted important characteristics which could affect aesthetic surgery attitude directly. Women having higher need were more willing to admit the change of body shape via aesthetic surgery.

The fungal distribution, diversity, and load were analyzed in the geographically segregated island groundwater systems in Korea. A total of 79 fungal isolates were secured from seven islands and identified based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. They belonged to three phyla (Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, and Chlorophyta), five classes, sixteen orders, twenty-two families, and thirty-one genera. The dominant phylum was Ascomycota (91.1%), with most fungi belonging to the Cladosporium (21.5%), Aspergillus (15.2%), and Stachybotrys (8.9%) genera. Cladosporium showed higher dominance and diversity, being widely distributed throughout the geographically segregated groundwater systems. Based on the diversity indices, the genera richness (4.821) and diversity (2.550) were the highest in the groundwater system of the largest scale. As turbidity (0.064-0.462) increased, the overall fungal count increased and the residual chlorine (0.089-0.308) had low relevance compared with the total count and fungal diversity. Cladosporium showed normal mycelial growth in de-chlorinated sterilized samples. Overall, if turbidity increases under higher fungal diversity, bio-deterioration in groundwater-supplying facilities and public health problems could be intensified, regardless of chlorine treatment. In addition to fungal indicators and analyzing methods, physical hydrostatic treatment is necessary for monitoring and controlling fungal contamination.

Ozone creation potentials suited for Seoul metropolitan area was derived by utilizing the PAMS monitoring data and the source inventory. A simple box model with variable height was developed to calculate the incremental reactivity for all the ozone episode days in the year 2003 and 2004. RIR (Relative Incremental Reactivity) was introduced as a measure of contribution to ozone generation in the Seoul metropolitan area. RIR was defined as a function of ratio of VOC to $NO_x$ and therefore it addresses both VOC and $NO_x$ limited regime. For the days that more than 10 monitoring stations out of 27 monitoring station in Seoul recorded the daily maximum ozone concentrations higher than 70 ppb, toluene had the highest RIR value in all the type II and type III PAMS site and m/p-xylene followed with the second highest RIR value. Analyses using MIR (Maximum Incremental Reactivity) and POCP (Photochemical Ozone Creation Potential) instead of RIR also yields dominance of toluene and m/p-xylene in generating ozone concentrations to demonstrate the validity of RIR.

본 연구는 도시 간 상호작용 지수(지배력 지수, 상대적 강도 지수, 엔트로피 지수)를 활용하여 출근 흐름과 업무 흐름, 화물 흐름에 있어서 수도권 도시 네트워크의 구조적 특성을 분석하였다. 분석 결과는 수도권의 도시 네트워크가 흔히 네트워크형 도시체계론에서 말하는 수평적이고 상호보완적이며 양방향과 규모 중립적이기 보다는 매우 규모 의존적이고, 수직적이고 최고차 중심도시에 의존적하는 지배 종속적 구조를 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 출근 업무 흐름에 비해 화물 흐름의 네트워크가 다소 균형적이기는 하지만, 상호작용의 계층 구조, 흐름의 상대적 강도, 균형성 등 모든 면에서 출근 업무 흐름이든, 화물 흐름이든 서울과의 상호작용이 결정적이다.

Automobile emissions have caused a major hydrocarbon pollution problem in the ambient air of many cities around the world. This study was conducted to measure the pollution status of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in some urban residential areas in Seoul, Korea. A total of 20 VOCs (11 aromatic and 9 chlorinated species) were identified at 4 urban residential sites in Seoul, Korea from February 2009 to July 2009. Comparison of total VOC (TVOC) concentration data indicated the dominance of the aromatic species with the maximum (72.2 ppbC) at Jong Ro (JR) and the minimum at Yang Jae (33.4 ppbC). The peak concentration of TVOC occurred during spring at all sites with an exception at Gang Seo (GS), where it was recorded during winter. The distribution of individual VOCs at the study sites was characterized by high toluene concentration. A strong correlation of benzene was also observed with other VOCs and criteria pollutants at all sites (except YJ). The overall results of this study suggest that vehicular emissions have greatly contributed to the increase in VOC pollution at all the study sites.

The distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates in Daecheon stream, an urban stream of Busan, was investigated to analyze the community structure of benthic macroinvertebrates. The collection was performed monthly at five(A~E) sites divided into three parts, upper, middle and lower, of stream from January to November, 2004. In physicochemical analysis of environmental factors, water quality parameters such as BOD, COD, conductivity and ABS were relatively increased in sites B and C. Whereas sites A, D and E showed little variations with good water quality parameters. However, water quality parameters in all surveyed sites showed gradual decrease with time toward improvement of water quality. A total of 8,226 individuals including 4 phyla, 6 classes, 9 orders, 302 families and 44 species were identified from five sites. The most dominant group was insect(class Insecta), and order Ephemeroptera and Diptera among insect was the largest member in species(30.6%) and individuals(75.0%) of benthic macroinvertebrates, respectively. The primary dominant species were Gammarus sp. and Ephemera strigata in site A, whereas Chironomus sp. and Brenchiura sowerbyi were dominated commonly in the other sites. In community analysis of benthic macroinvertebrates of Daecheon stream diversity index showed relatively low values, whereas dominance index was significantly high. Diversity index was the highest in site A, whereas the dominance index was the highest in site B. However, diversity index showed gradual increase with time showing adverse mode in dominance index. From these results, it can be suggested that long-term ecological monitoring of benthic macroinvertebrate fauna is needed for sustainable management of Daecheon stream.

Water quality, benthic macroinvertebrate communities, and other factors were investigated to explore the effects of the effluent discharge from a sewage treatment plant into Jwagwang stream in Busan in 2019. During the study period, the flow rate of this stream was in the range of 10,400 m³/day to 52,200 m³/day except for the discharge of about 24,000 m³/day of the effluent. After discharge, the flow velocity increased by about 65% and the water depth increased by about 40%. At sites downstream of the discharge point, BOD, COD, TOC, T-N, T-P, and other water quality values were worse than those of the upstream sites. The periphytic algal chlorophyll-a concentrations in the natural substrata were higher than those of the upstream sites, especially in May and August. However, at sites downstream of the discharge point, the individual numbers of Annelida were decreased and individual numbers of the insecta of arthropoda were increased. Also, species numbers and the diversity and dominance indexes were improved in the sites downstream of the discharge point. The functional feeding groups (FFGs) of collector-filterers were increased and the habitat orientation groups (HOGs) of sprawlers, burrowers, and clingers were especially increased at the sites with additional reclaimed wastewater effluent flow. Regardless of the effluent discharge, BMI, an indicator of ecological stream health using benthic macroinvertebrate species, did not show large gaps between the study points. Although the water quality of the sites downstream of the discharge point was much worse than those upstream, their ecosystem soundness was better than those of the upstream sites from an ecological perspective.
