원자력시설의 비상사태시 대기중으로 방출된 방사성 물질로부터 주변 주민 및 환경이 받는 영향을 신속·정확하게 평가하고 그 피해를 최소화하기 위해 실시간 방사선 피폭해석 시스템을 개발하였다. 수립된 대기 확산모델의 검증 및 정확도 향상을 위하여 야외 확산실험이 수행되었다. 대기 확산모델의 계산결과와 실험을 통하여 관측된 추적자 가스의 농도 분포를 상호 비교한 바 어느 정도 일치하고 있었다. 그러나 일부 경우에서는 관측된 농도값과 계산된 농도값이 차이를 보이고 있는데, 이는 실험 대상 지역에서 충분한 기상 관측을 수행하지 못하여 시간에 따른 풍속의 변화를 확산모델에 자세히 반영하지 못하였기 때문이었다.

Three-dimensional wind field and atmospheric dispersion models have been developed for estimating the concentration distributions of radioactive materials released into atmosphere. The field tracer experiment near the Kori nuclear power plant located over complex terrain was carried out for validating the atmospheric dispersion model. The wind fields were one of the most important factors for calculating the concentration. Therefore several numerical simulations using the measured wind data were performed to get more accurate concentration distributions compared with the analyzed values of the tracer gas. The calculated concentration distributions agreed well in the case of the usage of the more measured wind data in wind field model.

The suitability of the site criteria is a basic requirement for securing safety of nuclear power plants. The suitability should be confirmed through the estimation of environmental radiation effects at the exclusion area boundary under the severe weather conditions. In this study, field tracer experiments over short range of 1 km radius under severe weather conditions were conducted at flat area in Daejeon. Severe weather conditions are represented with stable atmospheric condition and low wind speed. In general, the condition is appeared at clean night time with weak wind. The analysis of the measured distribution of the released tracer gas shows two big differences between the results of the past experiments conducted under the favorable weather conditions. One is the difficulty of finding the typical distribution of the released tracer gas with peak concentration in the downwind direction. The other one is the appearance of the contour of the concentration of tracer gas at several hundred meters even though the gas released at 10 m height over the ground.

A real-time dose assessment system(FADAS : Following Accident Dose Assessment System) has been developed for the real-time accident consequence assessment against a nuclear accident. Field tracer experiment near Younggwang nuclear power plant was performed to improve the accuracy of developed system and to parameterize the site-specific parameters into the FADAS. The mean values and turbulent components of wind profile obtained through field experiment have been reflected to FADAS with site-specific conditions. The simulated results of diffusion model agreed well with the measured data through tracer experiment. The developed system is being used as a basic module of emergency preparedness system in Korea. The diffusion model which can be reflected site-specific parameters will be improved through field experiments continuously.

본 연구에서는 우리나라 전역에 군락으로 서식하는 상록 다년초인 맥문동을 이용한 현장 실험을 실시하여 지표화 방지 및 확산속도 저지를 위한 산불 이격거리를 제시하고자 삼척시 검봉산 맥문동 식재지에서 식재지 미식재지 총 4종류의 실험구를 설정하고 실험한 결과 맥문동 식재지는 미식재지에 비해 1.1-2.9배 산불확산속도 저지 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 지표화 발생시 산림내로 확산되기 전 초동진화에 필요한 시간(30분)을 감안하면, 산림인접지 부근의 식재폭은 최소 69m 최대 203m가 필요한 것으로 나타났다.

영광 원전부지에서 미시규모 기상현상 파악, 대기확산 특성연구, 실시간 수치모델의 검증을 목적으로 국내에서 처음으로 대규모 학술목적의 야외확산실증을 수행하였다. 1996년 5월 29일과 30일 양일간 두차례 추적자방출 및 포집을 실시하였다. SODAR를 이용한 고공기상측정 결과 해륙풍현상을 발견할 수 있었으며, 추적자 농도분포 분석결과 최대 농도값이 나타나는 방향이 거리에 따라 고도별 풍향변화에 영향을 받고 있음을 발견하였다.

The three-dimensional long-range dispersion model has been developed to understand the characteristics of the transport and diffusion of radioactive materials released into atmosphere. The model is designed to compute air concentration and ground deposition at distances up to some thousands of kilometers from the source point in horizontal direction. The vertical turbulent motion is considered separately within the mixing layer and above the mixing layer. The test simulation was performed In the area of Northeast Asia. The release point was assumed in the east part of China. The calculated concentration distributions art mainly advected toward the southeast part of release point by the wind fields. The developed model will be used to estimate the radiological consequences against a nuclear accident. The model will be supplemented by the comparative study using the data of the long-range field experiments.

In order to check host plant diversity and to confirm the potential risk to be invaded, we documented host plant flora and plant part of C. pentagona, an invasive parasitic plant in field survey and induced parasitic infection by them in the laboratory experiment. Parasitic interaction(12% of total tree species) was found in twig and leaf of tree such as Quercus mongolica and Abies holophylla that was not developed into ligninfication. There were most host plant species belong to Compositae, but the species parasitic rate of family was higher in Cyperaceae, Polygonaceae and Leguminoceae. Through the inducible infection experiment with C. pentagona, all species except one species show parasitic interaction between host plan and C. pentagona. These result means that the limiting stage for invading area is dispersion process for invading other area in Korea. Infection plant part by C. pentagona was dominantly both shoot and leaf, rather than only leaf or only shoot. We found newly 12 families and 45 host plant species including 33 herbacious one and 12 woody one. Crop plant such as Setaria italica and 6 endangerd one such as Scrophularia takesimensis, especially the later rare endemic plant was to death by parasitic infection of C. pentagona. These results indicate that C. pentagona is potential risk to both wild and cultivated plant in Korea.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect on pine wilt disease by health-thinning, thinning and sapling tending in red pine forest (Pinus densiflora). As a part of developing forestry control methods for pine wilt disease control. In case of putting in pine sawyer (Monochamus alternatus) with pine wood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus), the specimen trees in health-thinning, thinning and control treatment were withered more than 50%, although there were not statistically significant differences in treatments. In treatment site, thinning slashes had influenced on the spread of pine wilt disease (experiment 1). In thinning stand of sapling pine, site with thinning slashes had highest mortality (> 90%). There were approximately 10% mortality in the site of carried thinning slashes from case and the site of non-thinning with released M. alternatus (experiment 2). The larvae had not appeared in young tree stump with health-thinning and thinning at April, the current emergence year of M. alternatus, but there were larvae in sapling tree stump with thinning at May, the current emergence year of M. alternatus. In case of stands with infected young and sapling tree by pine wilt disease, there is no effects of on pine wilt disease control by health-thinning, thinning, saplings tending at April and May, the current emergence year of M. alternatus, and leaved thinning slashes had influenced on the spread of pine wilt disease as habitation of M. alternatus.
