The extent of water pollution was investigated at 4 stations in Kyonggi Bay during the summer seasons in 1970 and 1971. The concentrations of dissolved oxygen, total hardness, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, chemical oxygen demand, salinity, biochemical oxygen demand, coliform bacteria and facel coli were examined together with the measurement of pH and transparency. The relationship between the extent of pollution and the distance from the Inchon Bay also was examined. The concentrations of biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, coliform bacteria nad fecal coli were all highest at station 1, and lowest at station 4. Values were somewhat higher at low tide level in general. On the contrary, dissolved oxygen concentration was highest at station 4 and lowest at station 1. The highest and lowest values of biochemical oxygen demand were 10.88 ppm at station 1 and 0.27 ppm at station 4. The chemical oxygen demand concentrations at station 1 and 4 were 1.90 ppm and 0.63 ppm. Ammonia concnetration at station 1 was 0.43 pp, and was nearly 5 times as much as that at station 4. The values were $2.45{\times}10^{-4}$ ppm at station 1, and $6{\times}10^{-4}$ ppm at station 4. Nitrite concnetration at station 1 was $3{\times}10^{-4}$ppm and was the highest, while the lowest was $9.45{\times}10^{-5}$ ppm at station 4. Phosphate value at station 1 too was the highest and was about 4 times as much as that at station 4. Coliform bacteria were most abundant at station 1, and were counted to be 1.$1.7{\times}10^{-5}$cells/ml. At station 4, the number greatly reduced to 8 * 10$^{2}$ cells/ml. The number of fecal coli at station 1 was $2{\times}10^{-4}$ cells/ml. But at station 4, no fecal coli was detected at high tide level. At low tide level, 3 cells/ml were counted at station 4. In all of these, the highest data were obtained at low tide level, while most of the lowest value, at high tide level. Generally, values at statio 1 were 3-5 times as much as those at station 4. Concentration of dissolved oxygen at station 1 was 0.366 mg-atoms/1 and was the lowest. The highest value was 0.420 mg-atoms/1 and was recorded at station 4. The highest at station 4, which certainly were believed to be the result of the dilution by the fresh water of the Han river flowing into the Inchon Bay. As we can see from the data above, the extent of pollution was highest at station 1, the nearest from Inchon harbor, and lowest at station 4, where is the farthest, Station 1 and 2 were proved to be much polluted, but station 3 and 4, not.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the phase-by-phase elapsed time, the COG, the body joint angle changes and the angular velocities of each phase of Handspring Salto Forward Piked performed by 4 college gymnasts through 3D movement analysis program. 1. The average elapsed time for each phase was .13sec for Phase 1, .18sec for Phase 2, .4sec for Phase 3, and .3sec for Phase 5. The elapsed time for Phase 1 to Phase 3 handspring was .35sec on average and the elapsed time for Phase 4 to Phase 5 handspring salto forward piked was .7sec on average. And so it showed that the whole elapsed time was 1.44sec. 2. The average horizontal changes of COG were 93.2 cm at E1, 138. 5 cm at E2, 215.7 cm at E3, 369.2 cm at E4, 450.7 cm at E5, and 553.1 cm at E6. The average vertical changes of COG were 83.1 cm at E1, 71.3 cm at E2, 78.9 cm at E3, 93.7 cm at E4, 150.8 cm at E5, and 97.2 cm at E6. 3. The average shoulder joint angles at each phase were 131.6 deg at E1, 153.5 deg at E2, 135.4 deg at E3, 113.4 deg at E4, 39.6 deg at E5, and 67.5 deg at E6. And the average hip joint angles at each phase were 82.2 deg at E1, 60 deg at E2, 101.9 deg at E3, 161.2 deg at E4, 97.7 deg at E5, and 167 deg at E6. 4. The average shoulder joint angular velocities at each phase were 130.9deg/s E1, 73.1 deg/s at E2, -133.9 deg/s at E3, -194.4 deg/s at E4, 29.4 deg/s at E5, and -50.1 deg/s at E6. And the average hip joint angular velocities at each phase were -154.7 deg/s E1, -96.5 deg/s at E2, 495.9 deg/s at E3, 281.5 deg/s at E4, 90.3 deg/s at E5, and 181.7 deg/s at E6. The results shows that, as for the performance of handspring salto forward piked, it is important to move in short time and horizontally from the hop step to the point to place the hands on the floor and jump, and to stretch the hip joints as much as possible after the displacement of the hands and to keep the hip joints stretched and high in the vertical position at the takeoff. And it is also important to bend the shoulder joints and the hip joints fast and spin as much as possible after the takeoff, and to decrease the speed of spinning by bending he shoulder joints and the hip joints quickly after the highest point of COG and make a stable landing.

Physiological effects of 2,4-D on the growth of Chlorella ellipsoidea were investigated culturing the alage in the MN4 media containing 0. $10^{-4}/M$ and $4<\times}10^{-4}M$ 2,4-D. During 6 days culture were taken to analysis with respect to overall growth, photosynthesis, respiration and chemical composition. Results obtained from the experiment were as follows : 1) The growth of chlorella was increased at $10^{-4}M$ and decreased at $4{\times}10^{-4}M$ of 2,4-D concentrations 2) At $10^{-4}M$ pf 2,4-D cpncentration, the activity of photosynthesis enhanced relative to contro. while at $4{\times}10^{-4}M$ it was not changed. In both concentrations, however, the rate of respiration was down from the control. 3) At $10^{-4}M$ 2,4-D, the concentration of carbondrate metabolites was not changed relative to control, while significant increase in the concentrations of proteins and nucleic acids was observed. On the other hand at $4{\times}10^{-4}M$ of 2,4-D concentrations, all the metabolites including carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids were descreased. 4) It is concluded that 2,4-D at $10^{-4}M$ concentration accelerates the growth of chlorella by promoting the activities of photosynthesis and biosynthesis of proteins and nucleic acids.

This study is conducted to find out the appropriate preparing method and fermenting condition through analysis of physicochemical, microbiological, sensory evaluation of Myungtae sikhae, Korean fermented fishery food which was prepared in simplified and conventional methods. During the fermentation of sikhae at 4℃, pH was decreased gradually, but acidity was increased and salinity was steady state. In this aspect, no significant difference was revealed between sikhae prepared in simplified and conventional methods. Under fermentation at 20℃ and kept at 4℃, pH was decreased to 4.6～4.9 for 15～20 days fermentation with steady state of salinity. However, acidity was changed in conversely. The content of reducing sugar with rapidly decreasing in the beginning of fermentation was continually decreased. The propagation of microorganism in th sikhae depends on the fermentation temperature rather than the preparing methods. Generally low propagation of microorganism began to increase gradually in the sikhae fermented at 4℃ comparing to that fermented at 20℃. In the sikhae fermented at 20℃ and kept at 4℃, the total count including lactic acid bacteria, was rapidly increased after 5 days' fermentation of sikhae is dominated by Lactobacillus sp. and the unique flavor and organic acid were contributed by this flora with Leuconostoc. sp. By the sensory evaluation, the best flavor was revealed in the sikhae, prepared in simplified method fermented for 30 days at 4℃. Until 20 days, sikhae fermented at 20℃ revealed higher score than fermented at 4℃. General preference for the sikhae fermented at 4℃ for 15 days prepared by simplified method and those fermented at 20℃ for 10 days. The sikhae, fermented at 4℃, showed less difference between preparing methods and preferable acceptability after being 25 days. The best acceptability of sikhae fermented at 20℃ showed after 15～25 days. In the final conclusion, the appropriate preparing method of sikhae is to use frozen Alaska pollack with simplified method and fermented at 20℃ for 5 days and then kept at 4℃.

Buckwheat protein isolate was tested for the effects of pH, addition of sodium chloride and heat treatment on solubility, emulsion capacities, emulsion stability, surface hydrophobicity, foam capacities and foam stability. The solubility of buckwheat protein isolate was affected by pH and showed the lowest value at pH 4.5, the isoelectric point of buckwheat protein isolate. The solubility significantly as the pH value reached closer to either ends of the pH, i.e., pH 1.0 and 11.0. The effects of NaCl concentration on solubility were as follows; at pH 2.0, the solubility significantly decreased when NaCl was added; at pH 4.5, it increased above 0.6 M; at pH 7.0 it increased; and at pH 9.0 it decreased. The solubility increased above $80^{\circ}C$, at all pH ranges. The emulsion capacity was the lowest at pH 4.5. It significantly increased as the pH approached higher acidic or alkalic regions. At pH 2.0, when NaCl was added, the emulsion capacity decreased, but it increased at pH 4.5 and showed the maximum value at pH 7.0 and 9.0 with 0.6 M and 0.8 M NaCl concentrations. Upon heating, the emulsion capacity decreased at acidic pH's but was maximised at pH 7.0 and 9.0 on $60^{\circ}C$ heat treatment. The emulsion stability was the lowest at pH 4.5 but increased with heat treatment. At acidic pH, the emulsion stability increased with the increase in NaCl concentration but decreased at pH 7.0 and 9.0. Generally, at other pH ranges, the emulsion stability was decreased with increased heating temperature. The surface hydrophobicity showed the highest value at pH 2.0 and the lowest value at pH 11.0. As NaCl concentrationed, the surface hydrophobicity decreased at acidic pH. The NaCl concentration had no significant effects on surface hydrophobicity at pH 7.0, 9.0 except for the highest value observed at 0.8 M and 0.4 M. At all pH ranges, the surface hydrophobicity was increased, when the temperature increased. The foam capacity decreased, with increased in pH value. At acidic pH, the foam capacity was decreased with the increased in NaCl concentration. The highest value was observed upon adding 0.2 M or 0.4 M NaCl at pH 7.0 and 9.0. Heat treatments of $60^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$ showed the highest foam capacity values at pH 2.0 and 4.5, respectively. At pH 7.0 and 9.0, the foam capacity decreased with the increased in temperature. The foam stability was not significantly related to different pH values. The addition of 0.4 M NaCl at pH 2.0, 7.0 and 9.0 showed the highest stability and the addition of 1.0 M at pH 4.5 showed the lowest. The higher the heating temperature, the lower the foam stability at pH 2.0 and 9.0. However, the foam stability increased at pH 4.5 and 7.0 before reaching $80^{\circ}C$.

Eight days grown barley seedlings were treated with dimethipin for 72 hours and then the content of chlorophyll and photosynthetic electron activities of isolated chloroplasts were investigated. At the treatment of 10/sup -5/ M dimethipin the content of chlorophyll was decreased to 33% at 72 hours. Seven days etiolated barley seedlings were exposed to the light while dimethipin was added. At the time of 48 hours' greening chlorophyll content was reduced to 43% at 10/sup -4/M dimethipin and the chlorophyll a/b ratio was increased. In photosynthetic electron transport the activity of PSⅡ+PSⅠ was decreased to 10% at 48 hours and 25% at 72 hours at 10/sup -4/ M dimethipin. In the treatment of 10/sup -4/ M dimethipin the activity of PSⅡ+PSⅠ, except water splitting system was inhibited to 16% at 48 hours and 27% at 72 hours. The activity of PSⅡ was inhibited to 8% at 24 hours, 13% at 48 hours and 18% at 72 hours at 10/sup -4/ M dimethipin. The activity of PSⅠ was inhibited to 4% at 24 hours, 8% at 48 hours and 10% at 72 hours at 10/sup -4/ M dimethipin. In the times of greening of 7 days etiolated barley seedlings the activities of PSⅡ+PSⅠ were reduced to 5, 10, 10 and 11 % at 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours, respectively, at 10/sup -4/ M dimethipin. On the other hand, the activity of PSⅡ+PSⅠ except water splitting system, was not inhibited at all incubated hours in 10/sup -4/M dimethipin and there were no clear changes of the activities of PSⅡ and PSⅠ as compared to the control. Therefore, it could be concluded that dimethipin inhibited the photosynthetic electron activity by affecting the function of chloroplast rather than the synthesis of chloroplast and the inhibited function of chloroplast seems to come from the severe decrease of chlorophyll content.

The 4WS system is usually developed to improve the maneuverability at low speed and the straight line stability at high speed, but it is found to have the severe understeer characteristics at high speed. Therefore a 4WS vehicle requires to turn the steering wheel much more than a 2WS vehicle at high speeds even a driver goes through the same curved road. In this study, to enhance the cornering performance of the 4WS vehicle at high speed, a DYC 4WS system is proposed based on the nonlinear 4WS system and direct yaw moment control system. Especially the proposed DYC 4WS system is able to realize a zero side slip angle for vehicles and a cornering performance similar to the 2WS vehicle at high speed.
