Thanks to the popularization of golf, the population of young golfers including female players has been continuously increasing and the market specialization of golf-wear has been gradually intensifying with a growing number of new import brands in the market. This study is aimed to provide a direction to strengthen and invigorate the competitiveness of domestic golf wear brands through research on the benefits pursued by, the purchase attitudes towards local and overseas brands and the purchasing behaviors of female customers who have emerged as the newest customer group in the golf-wear market. The subjects of the research were 409 female golfers and the statistical analyses used for the study were factor analysis, cluster analysis, ANOVA, Scheffe test, and chi-square test. The results showed that there were six factors sought for golf-wear benefits: figure compensation, brand orientation, comfort, youth/fashion, maturity/conformity, and individuality. Cluster analysis showed that there were three groups of golf-wear benefits sought. Overall, the three groups were different in regard to golf involvement and golf-wear preferences. Based upon the results mentioned above, this study summarizes the key features of each group and can provide applicable suggestions for conducting strategic marketing activities.

High salt concentration is one of the most important limit factor on plant growth at a disused saltpan for golf course construction site. The control of salt in soil is definitely required and the monitoring of salt concentration in soil and ground water also required to amend soil physiochemical properties. This research was carried out to monitor the pH and salt concentration changes by the height of ground water. By the physiochemical analysis test, the soil contains a high salt concentration and classified as a slight alkaline clay soil. The height of ground water table changed to 1.3m, 3.3m and 2.8m at dry season(mid-late June, 2005), monsoon season(early-mid July) and after monsoon(late July), respectively. Compare to the average ground level of 2.9m, the ground water was over flooded about OAm at monsoon season. The electrical conductivity(ECe) was measured above $4.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$ over all areas and however, some areas showed over $20dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. During a monsoon season, ECe was lowered to $1.2{\sim}15.0dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$, compared with those of the dry season. Therefore, the interception of the capillary connection between planting layer and ground water which contains high salt concentration should be adapted when golf courses are constructed on disused saltpan. The phytotoxicity caused by salt damage may be controled by the interception of capillary fringe of salt flow to the topsoil profile at the upper layer of the ground water table.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the mixed ratio of the soil amendments, peat, humate, peatmoss and zeolite, on the soil physicochemical properties. The mixed ratios of soil amendments were 0%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 10% (v/v) incorporated with sand which met to the USGA (United State of Golf Association) recommendation. It was measured pH, EC and CEC as a chemical properties. Porosity, capillary porosity, air-filled porosity, bulk density and hydraulic conductivity were also measured to analyze the changes of physical properties. Chemical properties were significantly different by mixture ratios of peat, humate, peatmoss and zeolite. When the results were applied to the USGA standard of the soil physical properties, the optimum mixture ratios of peat, humate and peatmoss were 5%, 3% and 7%, respectively. Air-filled porosity was factor involved in soil physical properties by blending with soil amendments and it was affected on volume of porosity and hydraulic conductivity. To analyze the corelation of mixture ratio versus to physical characters, the ratio of peat and peatmoss was significantly related to capillary porosity and hydraulic conductivity (P<0.05), that of humate hydraulic conductivity (P<0.01), and that of zeolite air-filled porosity and volume of porosity (P<0.05). These results could be used as a basic data for construction USGA sand green.

Much of the coal ash by thermal power plant has gradually been increased, however researches on the recycling of bottom ash has not been investigated enough so far. In this research, the lysimeter test was conducted to find out the possibilities of bottom ash as soil amendment to improve the physiochemical properties of sandy topsoil of turfgrass in golf course. The turfgrass growth test and leaching test were conducted on the lysimeter. The lysimeter columns were manufactured with various topsoil mixing ratios of 0, 10, 20, 30, and 50% of bottom ash with sand. As a result of leachate analysis through the lysimeter column, the higher ratios of bottom ash mixed affect significantly on water holding capacity of topsoil sand media with decreasing of the percolation rate. The results of leachate analysis in every three days interval, the pH of leachate increased with the bottom ash ratios, but the volume of $NO_3$-N, $NH_4$-N and K decreased significantly. However, the level of EC of leachate had constantly maintained. These results indicate that the application of bottom ash may improve turfgrass growth with water holding capability and fertility of sandy topsoil. However, the negative effects of the bottom ash also evaluated by reducing water permeability and solubility of $PO_4$-P by adsorption into soil particles. The results indicates that the reasonable mixing ratio of the bottom ash as soil amendment should be less than 20% (v/v) with sand which has a low water-holding and fertility in golf course topsoil layers.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the mixture ratio of the inorganic soil amendments on the soil physicochemical properties. In this experiment, three kinds of soil amendments which had similar pH, EC and particle size, the A, B and C, were tested. The mixture ratio of soil amendment were 0%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 10% (V/V) incorporated with sand which met to the USGA(United State of Golf Association) particle standard. To analyze the effects of amendment on chemical soil properties, pH, EC(electrical conductivity) and CEC(cation exchangeable capacity) were measured. The porosity, bulk density and hydraulic conductivity also measured to analyze the changes of physical properties. In the chemical properties, pH was significantly related to the mixture ratios of amendments, A and C(P<0.05), CEC and EC also related to the ratios of C(P<0.01). When the results were applied to the USGA standard of the soil physical properties, the optimum mixture ratios of each amendment were 3% in A and B, and 7~10% in C. To analyze the corelation of mixture ratio versus to physical character, volume of porosity was significantly related to the ratio of B (P<0.05), and showed similar corelation in porosity and hydraulic conductivity with ratio of C(P<0.05). These results indicate that types and mixture ratio of inorganic soil amendments should affect on soil physio-chemical properties of root zone on USGA sand green.

연축전지는 충전과 방전을 반복함에 따라 그 용량이 감소하는 특성을 보인다. 연축전지의 이러한 특성은 충전/방전 과정에서 전지의 극판에서 일어나는 화학반응 중 충전/방전에 관여하지 않는 비가역적인 반응이 발생하여 극판의 활물질의 감소를 가져오기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 비가역적인 반응을 감소시키고 비가역 반응에 의해 생성된 화합물을 분해해 극판의 활물질로 되돌릴 수 있는 shark pulse 파형을 이용한 충전 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 충전방법으로 각기 열화정도가 다른 골프카트용 12V 연축전지를 대상으로 충전실험을 하였고, 방전실험을 통해 그 용량을 측정하였다. 그 결과 실험 대상 축전지는 SoH(State of Health)가 각각 7%와 27% 만큼 개선됨을 확인하였다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of rainfall, irrigation and fertilizer application on water qualities of pond in golf course from May in 2007 year to November in 2008 year. For survey of water quality, it was sampled at $10{\sim}12$ sites(irrigation site 2, drainage site 3, and hazard site $5{\sim}7$) of SKY72 G.C and evaluated with analysis items such as pH, electrical conductivity(EC), DO, SS, T-N, $PO_4$-P, K, Ca, Mg, Na, SAR, BOD and COD. Results obtained were summarized as follows: The value of pH, EC, DO, T-N, P04-P, K, Ca, Mg, Na and SAR was in dry season, but those of SS, BOD and COD in the rainy season. N and P concentration of pond water showed $1.2{\sim}28.8mg/L$ and $0.005{\sim}0.172mg/L$, respectively, and so it was higher than eutrophication level of lakes and marshes recommended by the Ministry of Environment in Korea. As a reault of correlation analysis, EC in the water was significantly(P<0.01) related items such as K, Ca, Mg, Na, SAR and salinity, and SS significantly(P<0.05) BOD and COD. In comparison with a corelation between respective analysis items and rainfall amount, SAR was significantly(P<0.01) positive but T-N negative(P<0.01). As compared with corelation between respective items and irrigation amount, pH was significantly(P<0.01) positive but T-N(P<0.05) and BOD(P<0.01) negative. When it was applied to N, $P_2O_5$ and $K_2O$ in golf course, N and $K_2O$ significantly affected water qualities of pond(P<0.01). These results suggested that a pond water in golf course was affected by the fertilizer application, rainfall and irrigation and EC was adequate monitoring indicator for the evaluating water quality of pond by chemicals influent.
