가속기 질량분광분석법(Accelerator Mass Spectrometry; AMS)은 동위원소 분석에 있어 초정밀 질량 분석 기술에 속한다. 시료(Samples)의 원자를 이온화 시켜 가속시키고, 에너지, 운동량 그리고 전하 상태를 분석하여 최종 얻고자 하는 원자핵의 동위원소, 예를 들어 탄소-14$^{14)C$),의 수를 정확하게 측정하는 분광분석 기술이다. 본 논문을 통하여 AMS를 소개하고 대기 환경 연구에 AMS가 어떻게 응용될 수 있는지 살펴 보기로 한다.(중략)

The preliminary concentration of trace elements in uranium dioxide using an anion exchange resin is presented for neutron activation analysis. The uranyl solution in sulfuric acid is adjusted to the acidity of about pH 2.7 and loaded on a column of the anion exchange resin. An appropriate volume of eluates obtained from the column shows good recoveries of trace elements. By combining this preconcentration with a radiochemical separation scheme, which was developed for the determinations of impurities in aluminum, it is possible to determine 21 trace elements in reactor grade uranium dioxide.

Oxygen isotope compositions have been determined for the granitic and the related rocks from the Wolf River Ratholith, Wisconsin in U.S.A. Plutons which belong to the differentiation trend are almost identical in oxygen isotope fractionation, and plutons of undifferential sequences also show oxygen isotope compositions similar to each other, which show little isotope fractionations at high temperature range. In oxygen osotope composition, the country rocks (the Penokean plutonic rocks), which is higher by 1~2 permil than the batholith are improbable source of the batholith. However, the assimilation of parent magma of lower ${\delta}^{18}O$ values than the batholith with the Penokean plutonic rocks might have produced the batholith.

The stable isotopic composition of bone collagen plays an important role in reconstructing palaeodiet, nutrition, palaeoenvironment and their lifestyle. This is the first case in extracting palaeodietary information and breastfeeding pattern of Goryeo people using stable isotope analysis due to the lack of human remains in this period. We analyzed human bone collagen excavated from Gyeongju Donggung palace and Wolji pond No.3. The average values of δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N are as follows: (δ¹³C(‰) = -19.5 ± 0.9‰, δ¹⁵N(‰) = 11.1 ± 1.1 ‰, (n = 4). Stable carbon isotope values shows a mainly C₃ based diet such as rice and barley. Stable nitrogen isotope results implies the protein sources attributed to terrestrial animals. There are various age groups in this study, which are adult, child and infant. Two individuals within early childhood age ranges (< 3 years) shows more elevated δ¹⁵N values than that of adult and this result implies the continuation of breastfeeding in this group until the age of 3. The results provide new insight into the breastfeeding pattern of Goryeo people, where breastfeeding and weaning practices have important implication for fertility, population dynamics, migration pattern and disease.

This study reports the stable carbon and nitrogen isotope of mummy, the preserved human time capsule from Joseon Dynasty. The stable isotopic composition of biological tissue is expected to be a direct and constant function of diet because the stable isotope ratios do not decay or change in abundance through time. Over the past three decades, stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis has been extensively applied for archaeological topics. However, this is the first case in Korean mummy to extract palaeodietary information using stable isotope analysis. We extracted isotopic information from bone collagen and hair keratin, which reflects the lifetime average diet and short-term diet, respectively. The average values of ${\delta}^{13}C$ and ${\delta}^{15}N$ values are -19.0‰ and 11.4‰ (bone collagen), and -21.3‰ and 14.3‰ (hair keratin). Stable carbon isotope shows a mainly $C_3$-based diet from cradle to grave. On the other hand, there is significant difference in stable nitrogen isotope which implies a relatively enriched diet before death. We expect this study opens up a potential to understand the palaeodietary lifestyle in Joseon Dynasty.

대기중에 존재하는 입자상물질은 광범위한 입경역에 걸쳐서 다종다양한 미량화학성분으로 구성되는 분산체이고, 그 성상은 공간적으로도 시간적으로도 크게 변동한다. 입자상 물질의 화학분석법은 발생원 동정을 위한 자료로 적합하며 일반적으로는 습식의 파괴적인 원소분석으로 하는 경우가 많다. 일반적으로 화학적 분석법은 개별입자의 정보가 무시되며 필터에 포집된 bulk 시료에 의한 분석이 진행되므로 장시간 포집에 의한 단시간의 시간변동과 개개의 입자가 가지는 정보가 무시되고 평균화 되어버린다. (중략)

제주도 대표토양을 대상으로 이들의 모재 및 토양단면의 토양 특성을 조사하고, 제주도 대표토양의 주요 유해 중금속 원소의 총 함량을 분석하여 그 분포특성과 이화학 및 광물학적 특성을 비교 평가하였다. 주성분분석 결과 전형적인 화산회토의 특성을 보이는데 하부 층위에서 Si, Al, Fe 함량의 증가 및 표토에서의 염기용탈을 보여주었다. 현무암질 모재 기원임을 보여주는 ferromagnesian 광물들이 주로 관찰되었으며 심토에서는 상당량의 깁사이트가 관찰되는 것이 특징인데 이는 표토에서 과잉 생성된 알루미늄이 하부토양으로 이동하여 이차적으로 생성집적된 것으로 판단된다. 중금속 총함량 분석결과, Zn, Ni, Co, Cr의 함량이 세계 토양 내 함량범위를 초과하였으며 향후 진행될 연구에서 제주도 화산회 토양의 주 점토구성광물인 알로페인을 비롯한 점토광물 및 비정질 물질에 대한 특성 및 정량적 조사와 중금속원소별 화학적 형태 파악을 위한 연속추출분석 등을 수행하여 중금속원소의 존재상을 규명하고 지표 토양 및 지하수 환경으로의 중금속 이동성을 평가하고자 한다.

The main objective of this study was to evaluate the current condition of harbor sediments and to estimate biochemical methane potentials from the harbor sediments. Sediment samples were collected from 10 different sampling sites. Ignition loss, elemental analyses, X-ray diffraction(XRD), X-ray fluorescence(XRF) tests were conducted to determine characteristics of the sediment. All sediments had similar elemental compositions and ignition loss were 8~10%. From the conventional BMP tests for 5 samples, cumulative methane production ranged from 11.9~15.5mL methane/(g of volatile solids), which were significantly lower than that for foods and paper. However, methane production rates for sediments were 5 to 20 times faster than those for foods and paper.
