The proximate, fatty acid and dimethyl acetal (DMA) composition, and mineral and total amino acid content of limpets Cellana spp. were studied. Limpets contained 17.6% protein, 1.82% lipids, and 1.28% ash. The most prominent fatty acids in limpets were 20:4n-6, 20:5n-3, 18:1n-9, 16:0, 18:0, and 22:2 nonmethylene-interrupted diene (7,13). Limpets contained significant amounts of 18:0DMA (7.79%) and 20:0DMA (2.45%) derived from plasmalogen. They also contained large amounts of calcium (192.4 mg/100 g) and iron (9.4 mg/100 g), which are components of limpet teeth. The most prominent total amino acids were glutamic acid, arginine, aspartic acid, leucine, lysine, and glycine. These results suggest that limpets are a good source of n-3 and n-6 fatty acids, plasmalogen, calcium iron, and arginine.

This study presents results from a detailed sedimentological investigation of surface sediments obtained from the Korea Strait region, the southern part of the East Sea (Sea of Japan). The distribution of different types of bottom sediments is controlled by the recent fine-grained sediment transport and deposition combined with the lowerings of sea level during the last glacial period, forming a diverse mixture of organic-rich fine-grained and shelly coarse-grained sediments. In comparison to high organic concentration of fine-grained sediments in the inner continental shelf and slope areas, the shell-rich coarse-grained sediments on the outer shelf are discernible being further modified. These coarse-grained sediments are confirmed as relict resulting from the sediment dynamics during the lower sea levels of the last glacial period. Clay mineral distribution of the fine-grained sediments gives information about the transport mechanism. Presence of present-day current system (the Tsushima Warm Current) is most probable source for the fine-grained particles into the open East Sea from the East China Sea, indicating that Holocene sediment dynamics may be used to explain the observed distribution of surface coarse-grained shell-rich sediments.

Laver, a red algae belonging to the genus Porphyra, is one of the most widely consumed edible seaweeds. The most popular commercial dried laver species, P. tenera and P. haitanensis, were collected from Korea and China, respectively, and evaluated for proximate composition, amino acids, minerals, trace heavy metals, and color. The moisture and ash contents of P. tenera and P. haitanensis ranged from 3.66~6.74% and 8.78~9.07%, respectively; crude lipid and protein contents were 1.96~2.25% and 32.16~36.88%, respectively. Dried lavers were found to be a good source of amino acids, such as asparagine, isoleucine, leucine, and taurine, and ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid. K, Ca, Mg, Na, P, I, Fe, and Se minerals were selected for analysis. A clear regional variation existed in the amino acid, mineral, and trace metal contents of lavers. Regular consumption of lavers may have heath benefits because they are relatively low in fat and high in protein, and contain functional amino acids and minerals.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising material for neutron detection at harsh environments because of its capability to withstand strong radiation fields and high temperatures. Two PIN-type SiC semiconductor neutron detectors, which can be used for nuclear power plant (NPP) applications, such as in-core reactor neutron flux monitoring and measurement, were designed and fabricated. As a preliminary test, MCNPX simulations were performed to estimate reaction probabilities with respect to neutron energies. In the experiment, I-V curves were measured to confirm the diode characteristic of the detectors, and pulse height spectra were measured for neutron responses by using a $^{252}Cf$ neutron source at KRISS (Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science), and a Tandem accelerator at KIGAM (Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources). The neutron counts of the detector were linearly increased as the incident neutron flux got larger.

Chemical composition of the Eucommia ulmoides bark, including extractives, proximate, mineral, fatty acid and monosaccharide compositions, was studied The most abundant mineral was calcium (533.17 mg/l00 g). $\alpha-linolenic$ acid (24.7%) and linoleic acid (24.3%), showed higher contents among the fatty acids. Major monosaccharides of E. ulmoides balk were arabinose (13.94 mg/g), xylose (18.91 mg/g) and glucose (119.7 mg/g). From the bark of E ulmoides, four compounds were isolated and their structures were elucidated as caffeic acid (I), kaempferol (II), quercetin (III) and isoquercitrin (IV) by spectroscopic analysis such as NMR and MS, including cellulose TLC and other chemical evidence such as hydrolyzation and acetylation. The antioxidant activities of four isolated compounds were evaluated by DPPH free radical scavenging, hydroxyl scavenging and reducing power assays. The results indicated that all the isolated compounds showed higher DPPH radical scavenging activity than $\alpha-tocopherol$ and BHT that were used as positive controls and these four compounds exhibited considerable reducing power and hydroxyl radical (OH) scavenging activity. Considering from the results above, it suggests that the E. ulmoides bark is a potential natural source of antioxidant material.

The source of Chusan Spring water in the Ulleungdo is the precipitation in the Nari caldera basin, which permeates in the Trachitic pumice and tuff area and moves downward, outflowing at the lithologic boundary between the trachyte and Nari tuff. It is known that the discharge rate of the Chusan Spring is large enough to be used for the small hydroelectric power generation, but the exact discharge rate and hydrogeologic characteristics have not been known. The discharge rates of the Spring were measured 11 times, which ranged from $15,220m^3/d$ to $36,278m^3/d$. The discharge rates, measured by the automatic level recorder, for two-year period, were $20,000{\sim}38,000m^3/d$. The variation of discharge rates did not coincide with rainfall event, but showed daily increases of $3,000{\sim}5,000m^3/d$. The annual discharge rate excluding the evapotranspiration and the surrounding stream discharge corresponded to 70.6% of the annual precipitation of the recharge area. Therefore, meteorological observations at the Nari basin, rather than the Ulleung-do meteorological station, are more appropriate to properly interpret the discharge characteristics of the Chusam Spring and the recharge rate of the basin.

환경방사능과 같은 저준위 방사능 측정에서는 원통형과 Marinelli형 측정용기가 가장 일반적으로 사용된다. 효율교정용 표준선원과 측정시료의 높이 또는 매질의 밀도가 다르면 자체흡수 효과의 차이로 인한 보정이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 Monte Carlo 방법을 이용하여 HPGe 검출기의 전에너지 피크 효율을 계산하여 측정치와 비교하였다. 원통형 용기에 대해서는 높이에 대한 효율변화 정도를 계산하였고, 원통형 및 Marinelli 측정용기에 대해서는 밀도변화에 따른 효율을 계산하였다. 밀도에 따른 효율의 감소 정도는 1000keV 이하의 에너지 영역에 대해 자체흡수 효과의 보정치 필요하다는 것을 알았다. 또한 계산의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 NIST SRM 4353 표준물질을 이용하여 계산값과 인증값을 상호비교한 결과 오차범위 이내로 잘 맞는 다는 것을 확인하였다.

국내에서 시간영역 전자탐사(time-domain/transient electromagnetic, TEM) 자료의 해석은 1차원 알고리듬에 주로 의존하고 있는 실정이기 때문에 정밀한 해석을 위하여 3차원 모델링 및 역산 해석 프로그램의 개발이 필요한 상황이다. 이 연구에서는 엇갈린 격자를 이용한 시간영역 유한차분(staggered-grid finite-difference time-domain, FDTD)법에 기초하여 3차원 TEM 반응 모델링 알고리듬을 개발하였다. 시간영역 전자탐사의 모델링을 위해 맥스웰 방정식을 현시적 중앙점 FDTD법을 이용하여 이산화하였으며 수치 안정성을 높이기 위해 가상 변위전류항을 도입하였다. 일반적으로 많이 활용되는 소형 코일 송신원을 수치적으로 구현하여 균질 반무한 공간에서의 해석해와 비교 검증하고 3차원 이상체에 대한 반응을 분석하였다. 이 연구에서 개발된 모델링 프로그램은 향후 TEM 전자탐사 자료의 정밀 해석에 기초가 될 것으로 기대한다.

It is getting difficult to manage water resources in South Korea because more than half of annual precipitation is concentrated in the summer season and its intensity is increasing due to global warming and climate change. Artificial recharge schemes such as well recharge of surface water and roof-top rainwater harvesting can be a useful method to manage water resources in Korea. In this study, potential artificial recharge site is evaluated using geographic information system with hydrogeological and social factors. The hydrogeological factors include annual precipitation, geological classification based on geological map, specific capacity and depth to water level of national groundwater monitoring wells. These factors were selected to evaluate potential artificial recharge site because annual precipitation is closely related to source water availability for artificial recharge, geological features and specific capacity are related to injection capacity and depth to water is related to storage capacity of the subsurface medium. In addition to those hydrogeological factors, social aspect was taken into consideration by selecting the areas that is not serviced by national water works and have been suffered from drought. These factors are graded into five rates and integrated together in the GIS system resulting in spatial distribution of artificial recharge potential. Cheongsong, Yeongdeok in Gyeongsangbuk-do and Hadong in Gyeongsangnam-do, and Suncheon in Jeollanam-do were proven as favorable areas for applying artificial recharge schemes. Although the potential map for artificial recharge in South Korea developed in this study need to be improved by using other scientific factors such as evaporation and topographical features, and other social factors such as water-curtain cultivation area, hot spring resorts and industrial area where groundwater level is severely lowered, it can be used in a rough site-selection, preliminary and/or feasibility study for artificial recharge.
