This research is to suggest an ecological management methods by classification of biotope type and its mapping for Tricholoma matsutake. The target area was construction site of the East Hongchun - Yangyang Highway (Yangyang section) where massive production of Tricholoma matsutakes is in place. Specifically, the 700 m long range of area around the road route, Yangyang section, which is over a total area of $19,79km^2$. The flow of this research was as follows: first studied were the characteristics of the Yangyang Tricholoma matsutakes; second, reviews on previous studies on Tricholoma matsutakes; third, the formulation of standards and processes of biotope type considering Tricholoma matsutake production; and fourth, mapping of biotope considering the production area of Tricholoma matsutake. In 24.77% of the region, slope angle measured $30{\sim}40^{\circ}C$, which is suitable for Tricholoma matsutake production. Also, 17.44% of the region had southward vegetation structures, and as for the Pinus densiflora; 26.00% had average receipts; the tree ages was $38{\pm}8.34$ years; and the average density of canopy layer was $9.55{\pm}4.89/100m^2$. The soil acidity (pH) values of 5.0 to 5.6(47.96%) > 5.6 to 7.0(42.90%) > 4.0 to 5.0(9.14%) were slightly high for Tricholoma matsutake growth; but 57.10% of the area had a soil pH of 4.0-5.6. The organic horizon (A0 layer) was $3.39{\pm}2.14cm$, and the mean depths were 4-6cm(78.03%) > 0-2cm(18.10%) > 2-4cm(3.87%). Based on the results of previous studies and field researches on the presence of vegetation (the pine dominance ratio), the topographic structure (the terrain characteristics and slopes), the receipt, the soil structure (the soil acidity and the organic layers interposed between the depths), and the vegetation density, six clusters based on the identified types of biotopes are produced in this paper. Area of distribution according to the type of biotope was Tricholoma matsutake of the potential-production (II) biotope (32.86%) > Tricholoma matsutake of the inadequate-production biotope (22.17%) > Tricholoma matsutake of the adequate (II)-production biotope (17.79%) > Tricholoma matsutake of the adequate (I)-production biotope (14.86%) > Tricholoma matsutake of the potential-production (I) biotope (9.77%) > Tricholoma matsutake of the produced biotope (2.55%).

The notion of probabilistic metric spaces (or statistical metric spaces) was introduced and studied by Menger [19] which is a generalization of metric space, and the study of these spaces was expanede rapidly with the pioneering works of Schweizer-Sklar [25]-[26]. The theory of probabilistic metric spaces is of fundamental importance in probabilistic function analysis. For the detailed discussions of these spaces and their applications, we refer to [9], [10], [28], [30]-[32], [36] and [39].

Chemical studies of nitrogen compounds of Panax ginseng seem relatively rare, Probably due to the isolation difficulties, subsequently the investigations of biological activities are little. The experimental conditions were established for highly complete extraction of peptides (basic, acidic and neutral) from Panax ginseng. This task was achieved by applying the follow isolation procedure: 1 , the sequential extraction with water, 0.1% TFA in 20% acetonitril and buffer pH 6.5 (water-pyridine-acetic acid 100:3:900) : 2, fractionation by ultrafiltration : 3, n-butanol extraction 4, cation- and anion-exchange chromatography : 5, chromato-electrophoresis. The comparison of red ginseng (xylem Sl pith part) and red ginseng inside white (xylem Sc pith part) was also provided. To analyze the peptide mixture the chromato-electrophoresis method of separation was applied. Optimal conditions for peptides mapping of sample were explored. Our experiments revealed the quantitative difference of peptide between xylem & pith and phloem & cortex part. We have also found the qualitative difference in the composition of polypeptides between normal red ginseng (xylem Sc pith part) and red ginseng inside-white (xylem St pith part)

The purpose of this work was to investigate the characterization and sequence of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (Cl,2O) purified from Acinetobacter sp. KS-1 which was grown on benzoate as a sole carbon source. Cl,2O demonstrated its enzyme activity to catechol and 4-methylcatechol. The optimum temperature of Cl,2O was $35^{\circ}C$, and the optimal pH was in the range from pH 7.5 to 9.0. $Ag^{+}$, $Hg^{+}$, and $Cu^{2+}$ showed inhibitory effect on the activity of Cl,2O. Molecular weight of the enzyme was determined to approximately 36 kDa by SDS-PAGE and 7-terminal amino acid sequence of Cl,2O was analyzed as $^{1}MNYQQIDALVKQMNVDTAKG^{20}$and exhibited 95% sequence homology with that of Cl,2O from Acinetobacter radioresistens In addition, trypsin digestion and peptide mapping were performed for internal sequencing analysis. Molecular weights of three digested peptide fragments were analyzed as 966.3 Da, 1933.8 Da and 2081.7 Da by MALDI-TOF, which were matched with each internal sequences $^{1}SQSDFNLRR^{9}\, ^{1}HGNRPSHVHYFNSAPGYR^{18}\, ^{1}TIEGPLYVAGAPESVGFAR^{19}$) of. A. radioresistens. PCR product was amplified with the degenerated primers derived from N-terminal and each internal amino acid sequences.

An operator $T\;{\varepsilon}\;B(\mathcal{H})$ is said to be $k$-quasi-paranormal operator if $||T^{k+1}x||^2\;{\leq}\;||T^{k+2}x||\;||T^kx||$ for every $x\;{\epsilon}\;\mathcal{H}$, $k$ is a natural number. This class of operators contains the class of paranormal operators and the class of quasi - class A operators. In this paper, using the operator matrix representation of $k$-quasi-paranormal operators which is related to the paranormal operators, we show that every algebraically $k$-quasi-paranormal operator has Bishop's property ($\beta$), which is an extension of the result proved for paranormal operators in [32]. Also we prove that (i) generalized Weyl's theorem holds for $f(T)$ for every $f\;{\epsilon}\;H({\sigma}(T))$; (ii) generalized a - Browder's theorem holds for $f(S)$ for every $S\;{\prec}\;T$ and $f\;{\epsilon}\;H({\sigma}(S))$; (iii) the spectral mapping theorem holds for the B - Weyl spectrum of T.

We present a progress report on HCN(1-0) line observations toward starless cores to probe inward motions. We have made a single pointing survey toward the central regions of 85 starless cores and performed mapping observations of 6 infall candidate starless cores. The distributions of the velocity difference between HCN(1-0) hyperfine lines and the optically thin tracer $N_2H^+$(1-0) are significantly skewed to the blue, meaning that HCN(1-0) frequently detects inward motions. Their skewness to the blue is even greater than that of CS(2-1) Lee et al., possibly implying more infall occurrence than CS(1-0). We identify 19 infall candidates by using several characteristics illustrating spectral infall asymmetry seen in HCN(1-0) hyperfine lines, CS(3-2), CS(2-1), $DCO^+(2-1)$ and $N_2H^+$ observations. The HCN(1-0) F(O-l) with the least optical depth usually shows a similar intensity distribution to that of $N_2H^+$ which closely traces the density distribution of the cores, indicating that HCN(1-0) is less chemically affected and so believed to reflect kinematics occurring in rather inner regions of the cores. Detailed radiative transfer model fits of the spectra are underway to analyze central infall kinematics in starless cores.

Co-application of organic coating and cathodic protection has not provided enough durability to low-alloyed steels inseawater ballast tank (SBT) environments. An attempt has made to study the effect of alloy elements (Al, Cr, Cu, Mo, Ni, Si, W) on general and localized corrosion resistance of steels as basic research to develop new low-allowed steels resistive to corrosion in SBT environments. For this study, we measured the corrosion rate by the weigh loss method after periodic immersion in synthetic seawater at $60^{\circ}C$, evaluated the localized corrosion resistance by an immersion test in concentrated chloride solution with the critical pH depending on the alloy element (Fe, Cr, Al, Ni), determined the permeability of chloride ion across the rust layer by measuring the membrane potential, and finally, we analyzed the rust layer by EPMA mapping and compared the result with the E-pH diagram calculated in the study. The immersion test of up to 55 days in the synthetic seawater showed that chromium, aluminium, and nickel are beneficial but the other elements are detrimental to corrosion resistance. Among the beneficial elements, chromium and aluminium effectively decreased the corrosion rate of the steels during the initial immersion, while nickel effectively decreased the corrosion rate in a longer than 30-day immersion. The low corrosion rate of Cr- or Al-alloyed steel in the initial period was due to the formation of $Cr_2FeO_4$ or $Al_2FeO_4$, respectively -the predicted oxide in the E-pH diagram- which is known as a more protective oxide than $Fe_3O_4$. The increased corrosion rate of Cr-alloyed steels with alonger than 30-day exposure was due to low localized corrosion resistance, which is explained bythe effect of the alloying element on a critical pH. In the meantime, the low corrosion rate of Ni-alloyed steel with a longer than 30-day exposure wasdue to an Ni enriched layer containing $Fe_2NiO_4$, the predicted oxide in the E-pH diagram. Finally, the measurement of the membrane potential depending on the alloying element showed that a lower permeability of chloride ion does not always result in higher corrosion resistance in seawater.

This paper studies the Cauchy problem and blow-up phenomena for a new generalized Camassa-Holm equation with cubic nonlinearity in the nonhomogeneous Besov spaces. First, by means of the Littlewood-Paley decomposition theory, we investigate the local well-posedness of the equation in $B^s_{p,r}$ with s > $max\{{\frac{1}{p}},\;{\frac{1}{2}},\;1-{\frac{1}{p}}\},\;p,\;r{\in}[0,{\infty}]$. Second, we prove that the equation is locally well-posed in $B^s_{2,r}$ with the critical index $s={\frac{1}{2}}$ by virtue of the logarithmic interpolation inequality and the Osgood's Lemma, and it is shown that the data-to-solution mapping is $H{\ddot{o}}lder$ continuous. Finally, we derive two kinds of blow-up criteria for the strong solution by using induction and the conservative property of m along the characteristics.

Polymeric thin-film assemblies whose bulk electrical conductivity and mechanical performance have been enhanced by single-walled carbon nanotubes are proposed for measuring strain and corrosion activity in metallic structural systems. Similar to the dermatological system found in animals, the proposed self-sensing thin-film assembly supports spatial strain and pH sensing via localized changes in electrical conductivity. Specifically, electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is used to create detailed mappings of film conductivity over its complete surface area using electrical measurements taken at the film boundary. While EIT is a powerful means of mapping the sensing skin's spatial response, it requires a data acquisition system capable of taking electrical impedance measurements on a large number of electrodes. A low-cost wireless impedance analyzer is proposed to fully automate EIT data acquisition. The key attribute of the device is a flexible sinusoidal waveform generator capable of generating regulated current signals with frequencies from near-DC to 20 MHz. Furthermore, a multiplexed sensing interface offers 32 addressable channels from which voltage measurements can be made. A wireless interface is included to eliminate the cumbersome wiring often required for data acquisition in a structure. The functionality of the wireless impedance analyzer is illustrated on an experimental setup with the system used for automated acquisition of electrical impedance measurements taken on the boundary of a bio-inspired sensing skin recently proposed for structural health monitoring.

A phosphate recovery system from artificial wastewater was developed using a completely mixed phosphorus crystallization reactor, in which powdered converter slag was used as a seeding crystal. In preliminary test, the optimal pH range for meta-stable hydroxyapatite crystallization for high phosphorus concentration was observed to be 6.0 to 7.0, which was different from the conventionally known pH range (8.0~9.5) for effective crystallization in relatively low phosphorus concentration less than 5 mg/L. The average phosphorus removal efficiency in a lab-scaled completely mixed crystallization system for artificial wastewater with about 100 mg/L of average $PO_4-P$ concentration was shown to be 60.9% for 40 days of lapsed time. XRD analysis exhibited that crystalline of hydroxyapatite formed on the surface of seed crystal, which was also observed in SEM analysis. In EDS mapping analysis, composition mole ratio (=Ca/P) of the crystalline was found to be 1.78, indicating the crystalline on the surface of seed crystal is likely to be hydroxyapatite. Particle size distribution analysis showed that average size of seed crystal increased from $28{\mu}m$ up to $50{\mu}m$, suggesting that phosphorus recycling from wastewater with high phosphorus concentration can be successfully obtained by using the phosphorus crystallization recovery system.
