The intraocular pressure for Korean youth were measured by using tonometer (AT555-Reichert). The relative frequency distributions of intraocular pressures have been studied for samples of 1,027 persons(475 males, 552 females). The most commonly recorded IOP for both men and women was around 14.5mmHg and 17.5mmHg, respectively. They were in the range of 7 to 23mmHg(males) and 7 to 22mmHg(females). The median pressure(cumulative frequency=0.5%) is 13.0~16.5mmHg for males and 16.5~18.5mmHg for females, so the values for females are slightly higher than males. The mean pressure is 15.2mmHg for males and 15.8mmHg for females, respectively. The 98% of population was in the range of the normal IOP. There are long-term diurnal variation in mean intraocular pressure and the IOP was decreased as a function of time from morning to night. The measured IOP was affected by several factors: exercise made to decrease the IOP and tight collars, dark places and posture of decubitus position got to elevate the IOP.

2000년 이후 중국 해군은 빠르게 성장하고 있고 이러한 해군의 성장과 더불어 중국은 남중국해 내 도서를 군사기지화 하고 대함 미사일을 개발하고 있다. 이는 제1도련선 내 중국의 해양통제를 위한 노력으로써 인도-태평양 지역 내 미 해군 전력 및 기지에 심각한 위협으로 작용하여 미국의 해양 지배력을 약화시키는데 기여하고 있다. 이를 극복하기 위해서 미국은 인도-태평양 지역내 동맹국과 파트너국들과 함께 시간, 공간, 전력(화력, 군수) 측면에서 작전개념을 발전시켜야 한다. 우선 시간적인 측면에서 중국의 위협에 신속하게 대응하기 위해서 인도-태평양 지역내 국가들의 공중전력(UAVs)과 해상전력(Aegis ships)을 활용하여 대중 정보공유 체계를 강화시켜야 한다. 다음으로 공간적인 측면에서 중국의 위협으로터 인도-태평양 지역 내 미해군의 전력 및 기지를 보호하기 위해서 미 해군 전력을 일본과 호주로 분산 배치시키고 동맹국과 파트너국들의 이지스함, 잠수함 및 무인 수중전력을 적극 활용해야 한다. 전력 측면에서는 해상 기반 화력과 지상 기반 화력을 통합하여 화력의 치명성을 강화해야 하고 인도와의 협력 및 인도-태평양 지역내 함정 손상통제 시설의 확충을 통해서 해상 군수지원 능력을 발전시켜야 한다. 이러한 미 해군의 작전개념 발전 방향이 주는 한국 해군에의 함의는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 미·중간 남중국해 분쟁 발생시 중국의 미사일 위협으로부터 한국 내 위치하고 있는 한·미 해군 전력 보호를 위해 미사일 방어체계(이지스함, 사드 등)를 발전시켜야 한다. 둘째, 대중 감시·정찰 및 미 항공모함단 방호 전력으로 활용 가능한 한국형 원자력 잠수함을 개발해야 한다. 셋째, 미국 뿐만 아니라 인도-태평양 지역내 파트너 국가들을 포함하는 연합훈련을 확대·발전시킴으로써 남중국해내 중국의 해양통제 노력에 대응해야 한다. 넷째, 인명손실을 최소화하고 효율적으로 해군력을 현시할 수 있는 무인 수중·수상체계를 지속적으로 발전시켜 나가야 한다.

Wild boar is closely related to domestic pigs in terms of genetic homogeneity and the possibility of a source of infection by contact. This study investigated the prevalence of viral diseases from wild boars inhabiting Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea. A total of 374 blood samples were collected and subjected to antigen tests to detect African swine fever virus (ASFV), Porcine circovirus type-2 (PCV2), Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV). For seroprevalence, PCV2, PRRS, classical swine fever virus (CSFV), Aujezsky's disease (ADV), and foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) were investigated. The antigenic analysis revealed 73 positive cases (19.5%) for PCV2, while no positive cases for ASFV and PRRSV. For the antibody test, 225 (60.2%), 2 (0.5%), and 48 (12.8%) cases were detected against PCV2, PRRSV, and CSFV, respectively. There were no antibodies detected against both ADV and FMDV. Our results suggest that the viruses infecting both wild boar and domestic pig, mainly PCV2, are circulating in the wild boar population thus, the consistent monitoring of prevalence in wild boar will be needed for transboundary spillover to the domestic pig.

최근 낙동강유역에서는 여름철 폭염 및 가뭄의 영향으로 조류대경보가 발령되고 있으며, 급격한 수질환경적 변화가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구대상유역인 낙동강에서도 가뭄으로 인해 녹조가 발생하여 조류경보가 발령되었다. 남조류의 대발생은 대량 번성 및 사멸에 따라 수체 내 산소 고갈 및 유기물 증가와 같은 문제를 야기하고 있다. 또한 남조류가 분비하는 독성물질 또한 수생태계와 인체에 유해하다. 그리고 인체에는 무해하다고 밝혀졌지만 수돗물 등에서 흙냄새와 같은 좋지 않은 냄새를 유발하는 냄새물인 지오스민, 2-MIB을 분비하여 정수공급체계의 악영향을 미친다. 본 연구대상 지점인 낙동강은 다기능 보 건설로 인해 하천 수심이 증가하고 유속이 느려지면서 정체성 수역 특성을 나타내고 있다. 이는 호소성 수역 특성을 나타내고 있음과 동시에 녹조발생과 같은 수질환경적 변화가 이루어지고 있다는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구에서 시각화 분석을 통해 낙동강 하류 남조류 발생현황을 분석하였으며, 랜덤포레스트를 이용하여 지점별 남조류 발생 주요 영향인자를 도출하였다. 조류경보제 발생 등급은 발령기준으로 관심, 위험, 대발생으로 구분된다. 학습데이터로 관심단계 기준인 남조류세포수 1,000 cell/mL 보다 작게 측정된 데이터들은 관심미만의 데이터로 Normal 등급으로 구분하였다. 구분된 발생등급을 범주형 변수로 설정하여 학습 데이터를 통해 모형을 구축하고 검증 데이터를 이용하여 모형 정확성을 평가하였다. 본 연구를 통해 조류발생 주요 영향인자를 도출하고 변수별 중요도를 평가를 통해 지점별 녹조 발생특성을 비교 분석하였다.

최근 국내 기후변화와 산업화로 인한 오염물 배출량 증가로 인해 하천 및 호소에 남조류 과대 성장이 빈번히 발생한다. 과거에 비해 녹조현상의 빈도가 잦아졌으며, 지속기간이 증가하였다. 조류 발생 시 현장에서 채수한 샘플을 통해 검경 및 chlorophyll-a 분석을 진행하여 조류의 정성·정량적 평가를 진행한다. 이러한 분석결과는 녹조 발생에 대한 기초자료로 활용되고 있다. 하지만 현장 시료 샘플을 통한 조류 검경의 경우 단일지점에 대한 분석으로 인해 하천 및 호소의 전체적인 대표성을 나타내기엔 한계가 있고, 많은 인력과 시간이 소요된다. 또한 chlorophyll-a는 녹조류와 높은 관련성이 있어 유해남조류에 대한 집중 분석에는 한계가 발생한다. 이러한 한계점을 통해 국내·외로 조류 연구에 분광 스펙트럼을 활용한 원격탐사 기법 적용되고 있으며, 남조류 농도를 분석하기 위해 남조류의 보조 색소인 phycocyanin을 활용한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 분광스펙트럼을 활용한 phycocyanin 분석을 진행하였다. 분광 스펙트럼을 측정하기 위해 점(point) 단위의 고해상도 분광방사계를 활용하였으며, phycocyanin 측정을 위해서 형광 센서를 활용하였다. 현장에서 형광센서 및 분광방사계를 동시에 측정하여 데이터를 취득하였으며, 분광 스펙트럼 특성상 노이즈 및 이상치가 발생하기 때문에 전처리 과정을 통해 이를 보완하였다. phycocyanin 분석을 위해 다중 스펙트럼을 활용한 분광지수를 활용했으며, 이를 통해 phycocyanin 분석에 있어 최적의 분광지수를 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구 결과는 고해상도 점(point)단위 분석으로 향후 선단위, 면단위 하천 조류-스펙트럼 분석에 있어 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the causes and effects of cyanobacterial development and succession in a shallow eutrophic reservoir from March 2003 to February 2004. Phytoplankton succession, sedimentation rate, and sediment composition were analyzed. Algal bioassay also was conducted with the consideration of light, water temperature and nutrients. Cyanobacteria dominated throughout the year, except for spring season (March${\sim}$April) in which diatoms and flagellates dominated. Total cell density increased in July and November when P loading through inflows was high. Oscillatoria spp. and Aphanizomenon sp. were dominant in May and June, respectively, but replaced with Microcystis spp. in July. Thereafter, Microcystis spp. sustained until December, and again shifted to Oscillatoria spp. and Aphanizomenon sp. The dominance of Oscillatoria spp. in May was accompanied with high TN/TP ratio and the increase of water temperature and light intensity. While the dominance of Microcystis spp. was related with relatively low TN/TP ratio, ranging from 46 to 13 (average: 27). The sedimentation rate was highest in March (0.6 m $day^{-1}$) when diatoms dominated. During the period of cyanobacterial dominance, relatively high sedimentation rate was observed in May (0.4 m $day^{-1}$) and October (0.36m $day^{-1}$). C/N ratio of the sediment ranged $6{\sim}8$. Inorganic P concentration in the pore water was low when DO concentration was < 2 mg $O_2$ $L^{-1}$ in the hypolimnion, reflecting the P release from the sediment. Cyanobacterial growth rate depended on phosphorus concentration and water temperature, and high P concentration compensated for the low temperature in the growth rate. Our results suggest that the potential of cyanobacterial development and substantiality in eutrophic reservoirs be high throughout the year, as being supplied with enough P, and emphasize the consideration of sediment man. agement for the water quality improvement and algal bloom control.

This study was carried out to investigate characteristics of new garlic cultivar 'Alkae' and to identify the effect of scape removal on bulb characteristics and growth of garlic cultivar 'Alkae' and 'Namdo'. Bolting time and harvesting time were earlier about 20 days in 'Alkae' than those in 'Namdo'. 'Alkae' was inferior to 'Namdo' in top growth as plant height, number of leaves, leaf area, SPAD value, diameter of leaf sheath, and so on. but root developing was better in 'Alkae'. Bulb weight of' Alkae' was 17% more than that of 'Namdo', harvested on proper time. The ratio of bulb weight over 40 g was almost double in 'Namdo' as 48% with 'Alkae' as 25%. Occurrence of bulb cracking was more considerable in 'Alkae' and the number of clove per bulb was 1.9 more in 'Alkae' than 'Namdo', but the ratio of bulb rot during storage was higher in 'Namdo' than 'Alkae'. In treatments of scape removal, SPAD value did not show any difference between two cultivars. Leaf dryness was earlier and harder than control and leaf area showed the same tendency as leaf dryness, and there were no significant differences among the methods of scape removal. The bulb weight and the ratio of bulb weight over 40 g at 50 days after the harvest of 'Alkae', 'Namdo' were more 10%, 12% and 27%, 44% in scape removal treatment than control. and there were no significant differences among the methods of scape removal. So, scape removal was very effective to increase large bulb production in the two garlic cultivals and the effect was higher in 'Namdo' than 'Alkae'. The ratio of bulb cracking and the occurrence of bulb rot were almost same in with the scape removal and non removal groups And also there were no significant differences among the methods of scape removal.

Harmful Algal Bloom Alert System (HABAS) for drinking water supply is require to fast and accurate count as system monitoring of cyanobacterium occurrence and inducing a response action. We measured correlation between colony size and cell number including genus Anabaena, Aphanizomenon, Microcystis, Oscillatoria which are targeted at HABAS, deducted from standard formula, and suggested calculation method from colony size to the number of cell. We collected cyanobacteria samples at Han River (Paldang reservoir), Nakdong River (Dalseong weir, Changnyeonghaman weir) and Geum River (Gobok reservoir) from August to October, 2013. Also, we studied correlation between colony size and cell number, and calculated regression equation. As a result of correlation of harmful cyanobacteria by genus, Anabaena spp. and Aphanizomenon spp. having trichome showed high correlation coefficients more than 0.93 and Microcystis spp. having colony showed correlation coefficient of 0.76. As a result of correlation of harmful cyanobacteria by species, Anabaena crassa, Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, A. issatschenkoi, Oscillatoria curviceps, O. mougeotii having trichome showed high correlation coefficients from 0.89 to 0.96, and Microcystis aeruginosa, M. wessenbergii, M. viridis having colony showed correlation coefficients from 0.76 to 0.88. Compared with other genus Microcystis relatively showed low correlation because even species and colony size are the same, cell density and cell size are different from Microcystis strains. In this study, using calculated regression might be fast and simple method of cell counting. From now on, we need to secure additional samples, and make a decision to study about other species.

The study analyzed the relationship between harmful cyanobacteria and physicochemical factors in Lake Juam from 2005 to 2018. The research locations were designated St. 1 (Juam-Dam) and St. 2 (Sinpyong). Harmful cyanobacteria was found in four genera (Microcystis sp., Anabaena sp., Aphanizomenon sp., Oscillatoria sp.). The average standing crops of harmful cyanobacteria in both locations were 2,575 cells mL^-1 and 2,557 cells mL^-1 from 2005 to 2011. Since 2012, there has been a significant decrease that the measurements were 42 cells mL^-1 and 82 cells mL^-1 from 2012 to 2018. To analyze the reason for the decrease in harmful cyanobacteria, Pearson's correlation and t-tests were performed on data collected during the summer period (June-September). Pearson's correlation showed a significantly positive correlation with total nitrogen(TN), outflow, and storage and a negative correlation with electrical conductivity. T-tests were conducted in two different periods and showed decreases in total nitrogen, electrical conductivity, and residence time. The average rainfall was decreased from 263.3 mm (2005-2011) to 219.9 mm (2012-2018) and total nitrogen was decreased from 0.912 mg L^-1 (2005-2011) to 0.811 mg L^-1 (2012-2018) and the same variability was seen in TP (total phosphorus). Therefore, it seems that the low-rainfall decreased the nutrients (TN) and variability in the TP, resulting in a decrease in harmful cyanobacteria in Lake Juam.
