  • Distribution of fecal pollution indicator bacteria and environmental parameter were investigated of urban artificial lakes. An average concentration of temperature, pH, SS, DO, $COD_{Mn}$, T-P, T-N, Turbidity, Chl-a were $21.5^{\circ}C$, 8.07, 116.70 mg/l, 8.66 mg/l, 2.24 mg/1, 0.52 mg/l, 1.71mg/l, 80.54 NTU, and 52.12 mg/l respectively. From the results of bivariate correlation analysis, fecal contamination indicator bacteria were found to be mutually correlated. And turbidity and suspended solid were correlated. From the results of principal component analysis, four factors were extracted. And four factors of variance explained up to 81.5 percentage. Factor 1 was pollution pattern by fecal contamination, factor 2 was physical pollution pattern by pollution source, factor 3 was natural pollution by precipitation, and factor 4 was artificial pollution pattern by organism.

  • Most of the pile's vertical static load tests in construction sites are the proof load tests, which is difficult to accurately estimate the ultimate bearing capacity and analyze the reliability of piles. Therefore, a reliability analysis method based on the proof load-settlement (Q-s) data is proposed in this study. In this proposed method, a simple ultimate limit state function based on the hyperbolic model is established, where the random variables of reliability analysis include the model factor of the ultimate bearing capacity and the fitting parameters of the hyperbolic model. The model factor M = RuR / RuP is calculated based on the available destructive Q-s data, where the real value of the ultimate bearing capacity (RuR) is obtained by the complete destructive Q-s data; the predicted value of the ultimate bearing capacity (RuP) is obtained by the proof Q-s data, a part of the available destructive Q-s data, that before the predetermined load determined by the pile test report. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can easy and effectively perform the reliability analysis based on the proof Q-s data.

  • The purpose of this study were the effects of principal related factors on the choice of the subject of environmental education in curriculum of middle and high school. We select 495 middle and high schools from 3 district of Chungbuk, Daejeon and Incheon. And, we send the questionnaires to the principals and withrowed answer questionnaire of 313(63.2%) from them. From the analysis of questionnaire, we obtained the reliability coefficient cronbach alpha value(0.8684). The results of this research as fallows : the principal factors that had chosen the subject of environmental education have significantly higher knowledge, recognition, attitude and practice than that not choiced on the subject of environmental education(p=0.000). The correlation between principal's attitude on the choice of the subject of environmental education and choice state of school was significantly higher than the other factors, and it's correlation coefficient was 0.328(p<0.01). Principal's attitude factor on the choice of the subject of environmental education have a great influence on his practice factor of them, and standard regression coefficient was 0.642(p<0.001). We found that principal's attitude factor on the choice of the subject of environmental education to have a great influence on the choice state of school in view of the results so far achieved.

  • Recognition of Korean pre-service elementary school teachers concerning the factor for the environmental class was investigated and analyzed by the factorial analysis. Korean pre-service elementary school teachers are aware of the factor of 'participation in environment' as well as the factor of 'environmental knowledge' for the environmental class. Furthermore, they had a very positive attitude about the factor of 'participation in environment'.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop an instrument for measuring elementary school students' environmental literacy. The process of instrument development was four phases. The first two phases involved defining the domain of the construct, writing an initial pool of 55 items, and reviewing the items for revision and deletion. These steps were taken to provide the evidence of content-related validity, and to reduce a number of items. The third phase was, through item analysis, to determine the most appropriate items for the environmental literacy for the elementary school students. For the forth phases, the fifth and sixth students in elementary school participated in this survey. To examine the reliability and validity of environmental literacy for the elementary school students, internal consistency estimate, and factor analysis were used. The results of this study were summarized as follows; Firstly, thorough factor analysis, we developed Environmental Literacy Instrument for the elementary school students, consisted of total 41 items (knowledge 8 items, emotion 11 items, skill 10 items, and behavior 13 items); Secondly, Cronbach's alpha was .783 for knowledge, .832 for emotion, .866 for skill and 8.61 for behavior.

  • The government introduced a mandatory installation system of new & renewable energy for public building to meet the target of greenhouse gas reduction and also suggest a correction factor for new renewable energy to expand the installation of various new & renewable energy systems. The introduction of correction factors, however, was followed by the reduction of installation size of new & renewable energy sources. Assuming that it was caused by a correction factor for each new renewable energy source calculated by the initial costs, this study proposed a new correction factor approach based on payback periods to reflect the technology element in the calculation process of correction factors additionally. The application results of new correction factors show that it was possible to do complex calculations including the economic and technological aspects to select a new & renewable energy system and that the installation size was also enlarged.

  • In view of the effect of factor Ⅶ as a risk factor for essential hypertension, we investigated the length (I/D) polymorphism at position 323 promoter region and exon 8-Msp I RFLP of the human factor Ⅶ gene in the Korean patients with essential hypertension and normal controls. There were no significant differences in the allele, genotype and haplotype frequencies of these polymorphisms between normotensive and essential hypertensive subjects. The significant linkage disequilibrium was however, detected between two polymorphic sites. The Msp I RFLP and I/D polymorphism were also significantly associated with plasma triglyceride (TG) levels. Therefore, our results suggest that the significant association between two genetic variations in the human factor Ⅶ gene and plasma TG level may reflect the potential role of human factor Ⅶ gene as one of the genetic components for cardiovascular risk.

  • This research is carried out to investigate what factors affect high school students' environmental friendly activities iii Kwangyang and Suncheon. Questionnaire Survey was conducted with second-year students each three high schools in Kwangyang and Suncheon areas. Major research results were as follows; 1. High school students' environmental friendly activities were strongly affected by those behaviors of their parents. 2. High school students' environmental friendly activities were strongly affected by school environmental educations. 3. High school students' environmental friendly activities were affected by environmental factors of home, society and school. According to the above result I'd like to suggest inter-related environmental education between home and school and society, some devices which could strengthen the parents' environmental friendly activities, and systematic school environmental education should be conducted.
