For developing a canopy photosynthesis model, an efficient method to measure the photosynthetic rate in a growth chamber is required. The objective of this study was to develop a method for establishing canopy photosynthetic rate curves of romaine lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) with light intensity and CO₂ concentration variables using controlled growth chamber. The plants were grown in plant factory modules, and the canopy photosynthesis rates were measured in sealed growth chambers made of acrylic (1.0 × 0.8 × 0.5 m). First, the canopy photosynthetic rates of the plants were measured, and then the time constants were compared between two application methods: 1) changing light intensity (340, 270, 200, and 130 μmol·m^-2·s^-1) at a fixed CO₂ concentration (1,000 μmol·mol^-1) and 2) changing CO₂ concentration (600, 1,000, 1,400, and 1,800 μmol·mol^-1) at a fixed light intensity (200 μmol·m^-2·s^-1). Second, the canopy photosynthetic rates were measured by changing the light intensity at a CO₂ concentration of 1,000 μmol·mol^-1 and compared with those measured by changing the CO₂ concentration at a light intensity of 200 μmol·m^-2·s^-1. The time constant when changing the CO₂ concentration at the fixed light intensity was 3.2 times longer, and the deviation in photosynthetic rate was larger than when changing the light intensity. The canopy photosynthetic rate was obtained stably with a time lag of one min when changing the light intensity, while a time lag of six min or longer was required when changing the CO₂ concentration. Therefore, changing the light intensity at a fixed CO₂ concentration is more appropriate for short-term measurement of canopy photosynthesis using a growth chamber.

A multi-wire proportional counter with large sensitive area was designed and constructed considering diameter of anode wire. its material and space. A preamplifier connecting detector to main amplifier or counter was also designed and constructed for measurement output pulse from multi-wire proportional counter. The preamplifier was composed of charge-sensitive differential circuit. clipping circuit and amplification circuit. To test the performance of this equipment, terminal output pulse from the preamplifier was measured and compared with noise For these tests $^{239}Pu(360 Bq)\;and\; ^{90}Sr/^{90}Y(250 Bq)$ were used as radiation sources. The noise ingredient contributing to the maximum amplitude(180mV from $^{239}Pu$ and 200 mV from $^{90}Sr/^{90}Y$) was found to be very small(8 mV) Piled up pulse occurring at the output pulse of charge-sensitive differential circuit was measured as an independent pulse since this affected the amplification in the clipping circuit and amplification circuit. This information can be used to improve the loss of measurement due to piled up pulse.

Experiments from several groups Including ours have demonstrated that $Ca^{2+}$ can enhance the inactivation of N-type calcium channels. However, it is not clear if this effect can be ascribed to a 'classic' $Ca^{2+}$-dependent inactivation (CDI) mechanism. One method that has been used to demonstrate CDI of L-type calcium channels is to alter the intracellular and extracellular concentration of $Ca^{2+}$. In this paper we replaced the external divalent cation to monovalent ion ($MA^+$) to test CDI. In the previous paper, we could separate fast (${\tau}{\sim}150ms$) and slow (${\tau}{\sim}2,500ms$) components of inactivation in both $Ba^{2+}$ and $Ca^{2+}$ using 5-sec voltage step. Lowering the external divalent cation concentration to zero abolished fast inactivation with relatively little effect on slow inactivation. Slow inactivation ${\tau}$ correspond very well with provided the $MA^+$ data is shifted 10 mV hyperpolarized and slow inactivation ${\tau}$ decreases with depolarization voltage in both $MA^+\;and\;Ba^{2+}$, which consistent with a classical voltage dependent inactivation (VDI) mechanism. These results combined with those of our previous paper lead us to hypothesize that external divalent cations are required to produce fast N-channel inactivation and this divalent cation-dependent inactivation is a different mechanism from classic CDI or VDI.

This work demonstrates the indoor SI-traceable calibration of a transmissometer with a 75-m baseline for the measurement of visibility in MOR (Meteorological Optical Range). The calibration is performed using a set of neutral density (ND) filters (OD 0.1-2.5) and a set of high-transmission quartz glass plates (a bare quartz glass plate and antireflective-coated quartz glass plates), the collection consisting of 20 artifacts in total. The luminous transmittance values of the reference artifacts had been calibrated traceable to the KRISS spectral transmittance scale, which ranges from 0.2 % to 99.5 %. The transmissometer to be calibrated typically consists of a loosely collimated light source based on a white LED (CCT ~5000 K) and a luminous intensity detector with a CIE 1924 V(${\lambda}$) spectral response. As a result of calibration, we obtained the MOR error and its uncertainty for the transmissometer in 20 m - 40 km of MOR. Based on the results, we investigated the applicability of the calibration method and the conformity of the transmissometer to the ICAO's (International Civil Aviation Organization) accuracy requirement for meteorological visibility measurement. We expect that this work will establish the standard procedure for the SI-traceable calibration of a transmissometer.

최근에 대기오염이 심각해지면서 입자상 물질(particulate matter)의 농도가 증가하고 있으며, 이로 인해 대기의 시정뿐만 아니라 건강상의 문제를 일으킬 수 있다는 보고가 늘어나고 있다. 또한 미세 입자는 화학적 조성에 의해 인체에 미치는 영향이 증가할 수 있다. 중량농도 및 무기이온의 농도는 대부분 겨울철에 높으며, 특히 음이온 중에서는 SO$_4$$^{2-}$ , NO$_3$$^{-}$이, 양이온 중에서는 NH$_4$$^{+}$ 이온이 중량농도 중 차지하는 비율이 높다. (중략)

준해양사고는 해양사고를 제외하고 선박의 구조, 설비 또는 운용과 관련하여 시정 또는 개선되지 않을 경우, 선박과 사람의 안전 및 해양환경 등에 위해를 끼치거나 위해를 끼칠 수 있는 사고를 의미하며, 이를 통해 사고를 사전에 예방하는 제도를 준해양사고제도라 한다. 우리나라는 2010년부터 국제해사기구의 권고에 따라 본 제도를 도입하였고, 다각적인 방법을 통해 활성화를 위하여 노력하고 있다. 하지만 8년이 지난 지금도 본 제도는 좀처럼 활성화되지 못하고 있으며 해운선사의 자발적인 참여가 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 준해양사고와 해양사고 데이터를 다각도로 분석하여 연관성을 정량적으로 검증하고자 노력하였고, 동시에 준해양사고제도의 운영이 해양사고를 예방하는데 도움이 됨을 입증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 준해양사고와 해양사고를 다각도로 비교 분석하여 연관성을 검토해보았고, 그 결과 지금까지의 준해양사고 건수 증가 이후에 해양사고가 증가한다는 일반적 견해에 반하여 준해양사고 건수 증가는 해양사고 증가에 후행하여 나타날 수 있는 가능성에 주목하였다.

This study was conducted to establish scores according to the importance levels of each HACCP evaluation item in cattle farm. The importance levels and score of each HACCP evaluation item was derived through the non-compliance rate and severity levels of hazard. In order to change the score criteria according to the importance of each HACCP evaluation item, we analyzed the importance of each HACCP evaluation item by using the portfolio mapping method according to the occurrence frequency and severity levels of hazard. The scores were classified into 3 point, 2 point, and 1 point, respectively, by classifying the importance of each category as 'high', 'middle' and 'lower'. Accordingly, we have established a now scoring system of each HACCP evaluation item through this study. Through the result of this study, the objectivity of the comparative evaluation was verified by implementing the currently used HACCP evaluation item to the cattle farm. In conclusion, Implementation of the result of this study to cattle farm may help to increase the objectivity and also improve more safety and hygienic cattle management and raw milk production.

1991년 5월 31일, 1996년 9월 1일 그리고 1997년 6월 17일의 Landsat TM 위성화상자료를 Tasseled Cap 변환을 통하여 추출되는 4번째 특징을 연무지수농도로 사용할 수 있는가를 알아보고 또한 이렇게 산출된 연무지수를 사용하여 각 일자별 대기오염측정인자와 기상측정인자와 비교하고 서울시 각 행정구별 연무현상에 대하여 알아보았다. 동일화상내에서 연무가 있는 삼림지역과 연무가 없는 삼림지역을 표본조사하여 검정한 결과 Tasseled Cap 변환의 4번째 특징이 연무지수와 관련되어 있음을 밝혔고 기상측정 인자의 시정거리와 연무지수사이의 역상관의 경향이 있음을 확인하엿다. 대기오염측정 인자의 경우 정확한 연관성을 파악하지는 못하였는데 이는 연무현상이 대기오염 물질의 2차 생성물에 의한 것으로 추정된다. 각 날자에서 1991년 5월 31일과 1997년 6월 17일 서울에 연무현상이 있음을 확인하였고 대체적으로 날짜에 상관 없이 중구, 종로구, 강남구, 서초구에서 높은 연무지수를 나타내었다.
