Experimental and theoretical analyses were carried out to investigate the heat exchange characteristics of the nutrient solution cooling system utilizing ground water. The material of heat exchanger used in the experiment was polyethylene and the cross-flow type was adapted in which nutrient solution was mixed and ground water unmixed. For the exchanger surface area of 0.33$m^2$ and flow rates of ground water of 1-6$\ell$/min, NTU(number of transfer units) and effectiveness of experimental heat exchanger were 0.1-0.45 and 10-35％, respectively. Therefore these results showed that the hydroponic greenhouse of 1,000$m^2$(300 pyong) with the ground water of 10$m^2$/day could cover about 55-70％ of maximum cooling load in summer.

Apartment Housing has been increasing steadily, particularly our current super high-rise apartment houses that represent the culture has become a trend in Korea. These super high-rise apartment houses' curtain wall system increases heating and cooling loads, it is expected to vary by each unit's thermal properties. In this study, measured indoor environment and energy simulation results were compared to actual energy consumption. As a result, the various factors that affect heating and cooling loads, such as direction, plan type and glazing area, influence each unit's load characteristic. In particular, according to the electricity costs savings behavior, the occupant's thermal discomfort is expected to be large in summer. Therefore, to reduce heating and cooling load for each unit requires a reasonable plan.

In this paper, runoff characteristics of South-Han river watershed in terms of refractory organic matters were investigated. The concentrations of DOC, POC, R-DOC, R-POC in runoff and flow rates were determined by monitoring 27 times in dry season and 4 times in rainy season. The concentrations of the dissolved refractory organic matter, R-DOC was the lowest in fall and similar in the other dry seasons. The particulate refractory organic matter, R-POC showed less fluctuation than R-DOC. In summer, mass loading was the highest than other dry seasons. The concentrations of R-DOC, R-POC were showed to be affected by runoff volume. The mass loading grows higher as runoff volume gets higher.

Climate data were obtained over an eight-year period (July 2013 to June 2021) using an automatic weather observation system (AWS) installed at the foot of Mt. Geumo in Chilgok, Gyeongbuk. Using climate data, the statistical and meteorological characteristics of the local circulation between the Nakdong River and Mt. Geumo were analyzed. This study is based on automatic weather observation system data for Dongyeong, along with comparative climate data from the Korea Meteorological Administration (Chilgok) and the Gumi meteorological observatory. Over the eight- years, mountain and valley winds have occurred 48 times a year on average, with the highest occurring in May and the weakest winds in June and December. When mountain winds occurred, the temperature in the nearby lowland region more strongly decreased than when valley winds blew. However, the potential to use mountain winds to improve urban thermal environments is limited because mountain winds occur infrequently in summer when a drop in nighttime temperature is required.

Atmospheric particulate matter (A. P. M.) was collected and size-fractionated by an Andersen high-volume air sampler over 15 month period from Jan. 1985 to Feb. 1986 in Seoul. The concentration of chloride, nitrate and sulfate were extracted in an ultrasonic bath and were analyzed by ion chromatography. The annual arithmetical mean of A. P. M. was 128.54 $\mug/m^3$. The concentration of anions were 2.88 $\mug/m^3$ for chloride, 3.86$\mug/m^3$ for nitrate, and 25.44$\mug/m^3$ for sulfate. The content of A. P. M. was lowest in the particle size range 1.1 $\sim 3.3\mum$ and increased as the particle size increased or decreased. And the anions exhibited a seasonal variation in the isize distribution. The contents of anions were higher in winter than summer. Ther ratio of fine particles to the total particles defined by F/T for chloride, nitrate and sulfate. The F\ulcornerT of these anion generally decrease with increasing air temperature. This tendency was prevalent in the chloride and nitrate.

In this study, the effects of an urban thermal environment on air quality were investigated using hourly surface weather observation data and air quality data over six summers from 2000 to 2005 in two cities on the Korean Peninsula. One, the city of Daegu, is representative of basin topography and the other, the city of Busan, represents a coastal area. It is known that the characteristics of an urban thermal environment are represented as an "urban heat island". Here, we focus on the nighttime urban thermal environment, which is called a "tropical night", during the summer. On tropical nights in Busan, the temperature and cloud cover levels were higher than on non-tropical nights. Wind speed did not appear to make a difference even on a tropical night. However, the frequency of southwestern winds from the sea was higher during tropical nights. The prevailing southwest winds in all areas meant an inflow of air from the sea. So at most of the air quality stations, the ozone concentration during tropical nights was lower than during non-tropical nights. In Daegu, the tropical nights had higher temperatures and cloud covers. Despite these higher temperatures, the ozone concentration during the tropical nights was lower than that on non-tropical nights at most of the air quality stations. This feature was caused by low irradiance, which in turn caused an increased cloud cover. Wind speed was stronger during the tropical nights and dispersed the air pollutants. These meteorological characteristics of the tropical nights reduced ozone concentrations in the Daegu Basin.

The study on school indoor air quality was carried out at classrooms, computer-rooms, laboratories and play- grounds for carbonyl compounds including formaldehyde during the winter time from November to December 2004 and during the summer time from June to July 2005. The sampling was conducted under the general school condition without any artificial intervention such as the sealing, ventilating or heating at indoor environments. The concentrations of formaldehyde at all types of indoor environments were lower than air quality standard of $120{\mu}g/m^3$ for public facilities. The mean concentrations of formaldehyde at indoors were $4.5{\sim}6.1$ times higher than those at outdoors. From the comparison between two year and one year old schools after construction, the concentrations of formaldehyde in two year old school were $30{\sim}38%$ lower than those in one year old school measured at classrooms and laboratories.

Objective: This study was designed to compare construction types and seasonal radon concentrations in dwellings in Jeollabuk-do Province in Korea. Methods: The measurement of indoor radon concentrations in 79 dwellings using alpha-track detectors was performed every three months (seasonally) over one year between 2015 and 2016. Also, Radon concentrations in soil were measured in spring to investigate the correlations between the concentrations in soil and indoor air. Results: The annual average concentration of indoor radon for dwellings was 89.7±72.1(GM: 72.4) Bq/㎥, with a range (min-max) of 17.2 to 505.4 Bq/㎥. The highest indoor radon concentration was measured in winter and the lowest was shown in summer. The geometric mean of radon concentration in winter was 1.03-2.58 times higher than other seasons. Radon concentrations in soil were investigated at the depth of 1 m, and the concentrations ranged from 1,780 Bq/㎥ to 123,264 Bq/㎥. This showed low correlations with indoor radon concentrations.

본 연구는 호소형과 하천형으로 크게 구분할 수 있는 주요 댐 호의 8년간 수질 및 수문조사자료를 이용하여(1990${\sim}$1998)조류발생 패턴과 수문학적 요인과의 관계를 분석하고자 하였다. 각 댐 호의 수온은 하천형이 호소형보다 계절별 변화폭이 큰 것으로 나타났다. pH는 호소형의 경우 겨울철에 낮고 여름철에 상대적으로 높은 수준을 보였으나, 하천형에서는 대부분 봄철과 가을철에 높고 여름철에 낮은 수준을 나타냈다. COD농도는 호소형 3개 댐 호 및 하천형 댐 호인 팔당호에서 낮고(1 mg/L내외), 금강하구언 및 낙동강하구언에서는 높았다(2${\sim}$3mg/L) 용존산소 농도는 하천형이 호소형보다 높은 값을 보였다. 용존산소포화도의 계절별 변화패턴은 하천형 댐 호의 경우높은 수준(80 ${\sim}$ 100%)을 유지하면서 계절별 변화폭도 그리 크지 않은 반면, 호소형에서는 늦봄 ${\sim}$ 초여름경 최고치 (93%)를 보이다가 겨울철까지 천천히 감소(46${\sim}$66%)하는 패턴을 나타냈으며, 각 호수 저수량의 계절적변화와 반비례하는 경향을 보였다. 총 질소와 총 인 농도는 호소형에서 낮았으며, 호소형은 계절별로 큰 변화가 관찰되지 않은 반면 하천형에서는 상대적으로 유입부하량이 많고 변동폭도 큰 것으로 나타났다. 하천형 호소에서도 팔당호는 금강하구언이나 낙동강하구언보다 매우 낮은 수준을 나타냈다. 연 평균치로 본 N/P 질량비는 호소형에서는 높고, 하천형에서는 낮았다 투명도와 부유물질 농도의 상관관계로 판단할 때 하천형에서의 투명도는 부유물질 농도에 의존하는 경향을 보였다. 클로로필 a 의 연평균 농도로 보았을 때 하천형에서 훨씬 높은 조류발생 패턴을 보였다. 계절별로 보면 호소형은 강우기가 끝난 늦여름에서 초가을 동안에 높은 수준을 보였으나, 하천형에서는 강우기와 겨울철을 제외하고는 불규칙하게 연중 조류발생이 관찰되었다. 호소형에서 강우와 클로로필 a 농도와는 정의 상관관계가 밝혀졌으며, 하천형에서는 유의성이 없었다.
