Effects of the post-acid treatment of SAPO-34 sample by hydrochloric acid were investigated to enhance the catalytic performance in DTO reaction. Uniformly sized SAPO-34 samples with cubic-like morphology were prepared by hydrothermal method using TEAOH and DEA as the structure directing agents. It was modified in terms of the HCl concentration and treating time. As a result, the total surface area and micropore volume for the well modified samples increased and the total acid site was somewhat decreased along with the erosion of the external surface. Especially, the catalytic lifetime and light olefins selectivity for acid treated SAPO-0.2 M (3 h) samples were considerably enhanced compared with those of untreated SAPO-34 samples. It indicates that the deactivation by coke formation proceeds mainly at the pore entrance on the external surface. Therefore, the acid treatment was confirmed to be a simple method which can significantly improve the catalytic performance by modifying the external surface of SAPO-34 catalyst.

This study was carried out to evaluate degradation status of forest trails by analysis of soil physical and chemical properties in Mt. Jiri area of Gyeongnam province. Soil texture was loam in the forest area and sandy loam in the forest trails. Soil bulk density was significantly higher (P<0.05) in the forest trails (1.15 g/$cm^3$) than in the forest area (1.00 g/$cm^3$). The rates of pore space were lower in the forest trails (56.6%) than in the forest area (62.4%). Soil moisture content was significantly different (P>0.05) between the forest trails (13.3%) and the forest area (11.3%) Soil strength was higher at 5 cm of soil depth than at 10 cm of soil depth. It indicates that soil compaction by visitors could be affected at 5 cm of soil depth. Soil strength over 30 cm of soil depth was not significantly different between the forest trails and the forest areas. The content of organic matter, total nitrogen, available phosphorus, and exchangeable cations were lower in the forest trails compared with the optimum content of forest soils because of soil erosion with increasing visitors. These results indicate that it needs a counterplan to protect forest trails from overcrowded visitors.

Gaesung city of North Korea is meaningful because of the development of Gaesung industrial complex as a peace-building project and economical cooperation works between South Korea and North Korea. This article presents the characteristics of natural landscape of Gaesung through geographical names. This research was studied by literature analysis of North Korea, depth interview of North Korean labour and refugees, and second times fieldwork. The main results of this study are as follows. Firstly, the mountain landscape of Geasung revealed on geographical names characterized mountainousness and round shape. Especially, the places where are enclosed by mountain and streams are foggy and rocky. Next the landscape of stream characterizes sandy, unstable, and tidal river. Thirdly the fauna and flora which are reflected on geographical names are hawk, snake, tiger, homed owl, snapping turtle, chestnut tree, pine tree, pear tree, zelkova tree, and willow etcetera. The environmental conditions of habitation of these are similar to the natural environment of Gaesung. Besides, the geographical names related to soil distributed in northern mountain area of Geasung. The place names implicated cliff located on the riverside. In addition to this, the geographical name of 'Bul' implicated plain distributed in the riverside of 'Seoam' which a branch stream of 'Sacheo'. And the place names related rock located in place enclosed by mountain, river, and village. In cnclusion, Gaesung is more important to us as the Gaesung industrial complex and tourism development. But the fundamental research on Gaesung is a few because Gaesung belongs to North Korea. Therefore, this research will be useful for the control and management of Gaesung in the future.

Rock units, relating with the Guamsan caldera, are composed of Guamsan Tuff and rhyolitic intrusions. The Guamsan Tuff consists almost entirely of ash-flow tuffs with some volcanic breccias and fallout tuffs. The volcanic breccia comprises block and ash-flow breccias of near-vent facies and caldera-collapse breccia near the ring fracture. The lower ash-flow tuffs are of an expanded pyroclastic flow phase from the pyroclastic flow-forming eruption with an ash-cloud fall phase of the fallout tuffs on the flow units, but the upper ones are of a non-expanded ash-flow phase from the boiling-over eruption. The rhyolitic intrusions are divided into intracaldera intrusions and ring dikes that are subdivided into inner, intermediate and outer dikes. We compile the volcanic processes along a single cycle of cadela development from the eruptive phases in the Guamsan area. The explosive eruptions began with block and ash-flow phases from collapse of glowing lava dome caused by Pelean eruption, progressed through expanded pyroclastic flow phases and ash-cloud fallout phases during high column collapse of pyroclastic flow-forming eruption from a single central vent. This was followed by non-expanded ash-flow phases due to boiling-over eruption from multiple ring fissure vents. The caldera collapse induced the translation into ring-fissure vents from a single central vent in the earlier eruption. After the boiling-over eruption, there followed an effusive phase in which rhyolitic magma was injected and erupted to be progressively emplaced as small plugs/dikes and ring dikes with many lava domes on the surface. Finally rhyodacitic magma was on emplaced as a series of dikes along the junction of both outer and intermediate dikes on the southwestern side of the caldela.

To find out the effect of commercially available energy drinks on tooth enamel erosion, analyzed pH, buffering capacity, and the content of some of the inorganic components selecting 4 energy drinks that has high affinity of the products currently being sold. In addition, by observing the degree of erosion before and after immersion in energy drink by surface microhardness and scanning electron microscope (SEM) the results were as follows: Acidity of energy drink 'Burn Intense' was the lowest as $2.78{\pm}0.01$ highest on distilled water as $6.475{\pm}0.01$. 'Burn Intense' buffering capacity was $3.48{\pm}0.155$ at pH 5.5, $1.88{\pm}0.15$ at pH 7.0 which is the highest, and 'Hot6' was $1.71{\pm}0.37$, $1.23{\pm}0.35$ on each of it showing the lowest points. Ca content on energy drink was the highest at 'Volt Energy' as ($77.21{\pm}2.70mg/kg$), the lowest at 'Hot6' as ($0.98{\pm}0.05mg/kg$). P content was the highest on 'Hot6'($1.34{\pm}0.05mg/kg$) and detected at 'Red Bull'. Enamel surface hardness variation of the energy drinks before and after immersion showed rapid decrease at 'Red Bull' ($66.65{\pm}35.60$), and 'Volt Energy' ($61.96{\pm}31.42$), 'Burn Intense' ($58.53{\pm}24.84$), 'Hot6' ($53.99{\pm}60.26$) was in order. Distilled water, the control group, showed significant difference with the experimental group (p<0.05). But there was no significant difference between energy drinks. At SEM observation and analysis, 'Burn Intense' was the most severe demineralization, 'Volt Energy', 'Hot6', 'Red Bull', distilled water was in order. In the above results, taken together there were no statistically differences between energy drinks but significant difference in comparison with distilled water. In addition, at SEM observation and analysis all energy drink caused dental erosion, especially 'Burn Intense', has the lowest acidity, was serious. Thus, it is believed to provide a variety of oral health education and information about energy drinks that can affect the erosion of the teeth so public have the right to be recognized and reasonable dental care.

Friar Tuck, an Abandoned Mine Lands (AML) site, is located on the Greene-Sullivan county line in southwest Indiana. Prior to the on-going reclamation, Friar Tuck was one of the Indiana's largest and most environmentally adverse abandoned mine lands. The direct vegetation method was used to reclaim tailing ponds. Grading, capping, and revegetalon using agricultural limestone, fertilizer, mulch and seed were applied to the gob piles to abate acid mine drainage (AMD) and off-side sedimentaion. Erosion control structures such as terrace, diversion ditch, and gabion structures were also constructed to minimize erosion at slopes. A new method for treatment of AMD using apatite was tested in the laboratory and field. Apatite effectively removed iron, aluminum and sulfate while maintaining an almost constant pH. Apparently, this method can be applied to control AMD from mining refuse materials, even those containing high concentrations of iron and aluminum ions.

토양수분은 생태수문학에서 식생과의 상호작용의 중요한 인자이자, 대기와의 상호작용으로 인한 총체적인 물 순환에 밀접한 관련이 있다. 수문학적으로는 증발, 침투, 지하수 함량, 토양 침식, 식생 분포 등을 지배하는 중요한 요소이고, 특히 시 공간적 분포특성은 강수 사상 후 토양으로의 침투 및 토양수분의 재분포, 증발산과 불포화대에서의 오염물의 이송을 예측하는데 매우 중요하다. 또한, '07년 하천법 개정으로 증발산량 및 토양수분량이 신규 수문조사 항목으로 추가되어, 토양수분 측정에 대한 필요성이 높아졌다. 따라서, 2008년 5월, K-water연구원에서는 현재 시험유역으로 운영하고 있는 용담시험유역에 토양수분관측망(6개 관측소)을 구축하였다. 토양수분계는 토양수분을 결정하는 가장 중요한 인자인 강우자료의 획득이 이루어지는 지점에 설치하여 정확도와 신뢰도를 높일 수 있도록 용담시험 유역 내 6개 우량관측소에 설치하였다. 하지만 장비의 노후화에 따른 자료 취득의 어려움으로 인하여 2013년 4월, 토양수분계를 전면 교체하였다. 토양수분계는 기존의 FDR 방식에서 EC 농도에 대한 영향이 가장 적고, 플럭스 타워에 위치한 토양수분계 센서와 동일한 TDR 방식의 센서로 장비를 전면 교체하였다. 센서 설치 장소 변경에 따른 TDR 센서의 검증과 그리고 흙의 종류, 입도, 다짐도, 온도 등에 의한 오차가 발생 여부를 판단하기 위하여 이에 대한 보정을 실시하였다. 원지반 시료채취를 통하여 토양수분량을 측정하였고, TDR 센서에 의해 측정된 토양수분량과 채취된 시료에서 측정된 토양수분량의 결과를 비교하였고, 각 지점별 토양구성비와 전기전도도 조건을 고려하여 각 토층별 계수적용을 달리하여 센서 보정을 실시하였다. 그 결과 기존 센서 제조사에서 제안한 방정식을 그대로 사용하는 것 보다는 센서 검증을 통하여 얻은 계수보정에 의한 토양수분 변환식을 사용하는 것이 정확한 현장 자료를 확보할 수 있고, 신뢰도 높은 자료를 얻을 수 있다고 판단된다.

We report petrologic characteristics including $^{40}Ar-^{39}Ar$ absolute ages of the subsurface lavas recovered from borehole cores in two islets, Marado and Gapado, off the southwestern coast of Jeju in southernmost Korea and discuss on the volcanism in the region. The lavas in Gapado are apparently divided into one unit with bright colored, aphanitic texture and sheet jointed, and another unit with dark colored and massive. The outcrops often show differentially weathered pattern due to textural difference. While, the lavas in Marado have vesicular and glomerporphyric texture, even though each lava flow unit in Marado has slight unique texture with variation of vesicularity and phenocrysts. The chemical composition of rock core samples from Gapa borehole and Mara borehole shows that the lavas from Gapado and Marado are classified into basaltic trachyandesite($SiO_2$ 52.6-53.6 wt%, $Na_2O+K_2O$ 7.3-7.5 wt%) and tholeiitic andesite($SiO_2$ 51.7-52.8 wt%, $Na_2O+K_2O$ 3.6-4.1 wt%), respectively. The measured $^{40}Ar-^{39}Ar$ plateau ages range from $824{\pm}32\;Ka$(MSL -69 m) to $758{\pm}\;Ka$(MSL 19 m) for core samples of Gapa borehole and $259{\pm}168\;Ka$(MSL -26 m) for a core sample of Mara borehole, respectively. The absolute age of Gapado basaltic trachyandesite is well correlated with that of Sanbangsan trachyte(Won et al., 1986). Meanwhile, the age of a sample in Marado has $259{\pm}168\;Ka$(MSL -26 m) with poor plateau age formation and high error range. We report the data in caution but the rock composition and absolute age of Marado tholeiitic andesite are relatively correlated with those of lava units from Duksu and Sangmo-2 boreholes, indicating the volcanism during 260-150 Ka. On the basis of interpretation of occurrences of exposed and subsurface volcanic rocks of the study area, stratigraphic relationship with adjacent borehole cores and the bathymetry chart of surrounding area, it indicates that the lavas in Gapado were formed around 800 Ka during relatively early stage of volcanic activity in Jeju Island. Meanwhile, Marado may have originated around 260-150 Ka during relatively young stage of volcanism in Jeju Island. It is inferred that the volcanisms have originated in land and these islets were individual ancient volcanoes. The apparent topography has been re-shaped by tidal erosion due to transgression.

최근에 하도계획의 주된 과제는 하천환경의 보전과 창조를 위한 비용의 최소화이며, 침식과 세굴에 대한 하천관리 시설의 안정성을 확보하기 위한 질적 안전도의 최대화에 있다. 이를 위해 하도의 변화를 전제로 이동상 현상을 고려하고 저수로의 특성을 파악하여 하도계획에 반영하는 것이 필요하다. 이러한 하도계획과 관리를 위한 주요한 도구로서 하도특성조사가 제시되고 있다. 우리나라에서는 수변 생태환경의 기능회복으로의 하천환경에 관심을 기울이기 시작한 단계에 머물러 있다. 국내에서도 일본 등 선진 외국과 같이 홍수시 재해를 크게 경감하고, 자연환경을 실질적이고 체계적으로 배려하면서 경제적 하도계획 및 관리에 역점을 두어야 할 시점에 이르렀다. 이를 위해서는 우선적으로 하천이 갖고 있는 고유 특성인 하도특성에 대한 조사가 선행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 대상하천을 선정하고 측량, 하상재료 채취 및 분석, 유사량 채취 등의 기초조사를 수행하였으며, 이에 따른 하도특성량을 분석하였다. 대상하천은 금강유역의 지천 하류부의 약 2km 구간을 선정하였으며, 2003년${\sim}$2004년에 3회에 걸쳐 측량을 실시하고, 구간내 구룡수위표에서 유량 몇 유사량을 측정하였다. 또한 대상구간내 14개 지점에서 하상토를 채취하여 입도분석을 실시하였으며, 구룡수위표 자료를 이용하여 수문자료를 구축하였다. 수집된 기초자료를 이용하여 대상구간의 강턱유량, 특정재현기간유량, 유효유량을 산정하여 지배유량을 결정하였다. 산정된 지배유량을 이용하여 하상경사, 대표입경, 저수로내 평균수심, 에너지 경사, 마찰속도, 무차원소류력, 하폭-수심비, 수심-입경비 등의 하도특성량을 산출하여 하천환경정비를 위한 기초자료로서 활용 될 수 있도록 하였다.구에 맞는 작물 생산 및 농촌관광단지 조성을 통해 부가가치증대 및 소득증대를 꾀함으로 농촌문제 해결에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구를 통해 GIS 와 RS의 기술이 농촌분야에 더 효율적으로 적용될 것으로 기대되며, 농업기술센터를 통한 정보제공을 함으로써 대농민 서비스 및 농업기관의 위상이 제고 될 것으로 기대된다.여 전자파의 공간적인 가시화를 수행할 수 있었다. 본 전자파 시뮬레이션 기법이 실무에 이용될 경우, 일반인이 전자파의 분포에 대한 전문지식을 습득할 필요 없이, 검색하고자 하는 지역과 송전선, 전철 등 각종 전자파의 발생 공간 객체를 선택하여 실생활과 관련된 전자파 정보에 예측할 수 있어, 대민 환경정보 서비스 질의 개선측면에서 획기적인 계기를 마련할 것으로 사료된다.acid$(C_{18:3})$가 대부분을 차지하였다. 야생 돌복숭아 과육 중의 지방산 조성은 포화지방산이 16.74%, 단불포화지방산 17.51% 및 다불포화지방산이 65.73%의 함유 비율을 보였는데, 이 중 다불포화지방산인 n-6계 linoleic acid$(C_{18:2})$와 n-3계 linolenic acid$(C_{18:3})$가 지질 구성 총 지방산의 대부분을 차지하는 함유 비율을 나타내었다.했다. 하강하는 약 4일간의 기상변화가 자발성 기흉 발생에 영향을 미친다고 추론할 수 있었다. 향후 본 연구에서 추론된 기상변화와 기흉 발생과의 인과관계를 확인하고 좀 더 구체화하기 위한 연구가 필요할 것이다.게 이루어질 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.는 초과수익률이 상승하지만, 이후로는 감소하므로, 반전거래전략을 활용하는 경우 주식투자기간은 24개월이하의 중단기가 적합함을 발견하였다. 이상의 행
