The experiment was investigated the effects of lower root zone temperature on shoot and root growth of 'Akihime' strawberries in aeroponics in cold season. Root growth was decreased with decrease of root zone temperature, especially in lateral roots. Elongation of main roots was highest in $18^{\circ}C$ of root zone temperature. Number of lateral roots and length of lateral roots were lowest in $8^{\circ}C$ of root zone temperature. Lower root zone temperature resulted significantly in decrease of fresh weight of root and shoot and leaf area of strawberry. But there were no significant statistical differences in shoot fresh weight and leaf area in $8^{\circ}C$ and $13^{\circ}C$ of root zone temperature. Leaf length, leaf width and number of leaves of strawberry were decreased in lower root zone temperature. The results of this experiment will be utilized in the winter season cultivation for strawberry in hydroponics.

우리나라는 현재 국제적으로 물 부족가로 분류되고 있으며 대체수자원 확보 측면에서 충적층 지하수의 중요도는 매우 높다. 금강권역 중 향후 용수부족이 예상되는 지역 중에서 충적층 발달이 양호하고 개발 입지 조건이 좋은 부여, 천안, 청원, 서산지역을 시범지역으로 선정하여 충적층 수위조사를 수행하였나. 수위조사 격과는 충적층 지하수의 유동이 뚜렷하게 강을 향한 방향으로 진행되고 있으면 이러한 이득하천의 형태는 조사시기에 상관없이 모든 연구지역에서 관찰되고 있음을 보여준다. 현재 천안 및 부여.정동 자왕 지구에는 자동 수위 계측기를 설치해 놓은 상태이며, 차 후 수집되는 연속적인 지하수위 데이터와 하천수위와의 상호관계를 분석하고, 이를 본 연구지역에서 수위 조사를 통해 얻어진 지하수위 변동 양상과 관계시킴으로서 해당지역 충적층의 지하수 수위의 유추가 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Conventional Korean tunnel portals require a lot of overburden. For stability reasons, about 1.5 to 2.0 times the tunnel diameter is needed for the height in order to achieve a sufficient arching effect. Thus, considerable movement of earth and support constructions are required which lead to undesirably large changes of and damage to the environment. With a massively designed pipe roof, tunnels at low overburden can be built. To effectively construct pipe roof as an advanced safeguarding method, the following properties are indispensable: stability, insensitivity to settling and drilling accuracy. A new pipe roof method, AT-casing system, has been developed which on the one hand entirely combines the properties mentioned above, and which on the other hand permits the construction of safe, economical and environmentally friendly tunnels at low overburden heights of 3 to 5m.

Even though driving behaviors in underground roads can be significantly different from ground roads, existing underground roads follow the design guidelines of ground roads. In this context, this study investigates the driving behaviors of the exit-ramp terminal of urban underground roads using a driving simulator. Virtual driving experiments were performed by analyzing scenarios between the underground and ground road environments. The experiments' driving behavior data for each geometry section are compared and validated through a statistical significance test. This test showed that the speed in the underground road environment is relatively low, and the LPM tends to move away from the adjacent tunnel wall. Based on these findings, this study suggests implications and feasible solutions for improving driver's safety in the exit-ramp terminal of the underground roads.

This study was carried out to investigate the combined effect of cold storage with irradiation on rooting of chrysanthemum cuttings. Each cutting was six cm in length with three real leaves. A set of Groups of the cuttings was irradiated with 0 to 70Gy of gamma-ray after four weeks of cold storage, while another groups were irradiated with the same doses and then stored at $4^\circ{C}$ for four weeks. Root and shoot growth were observed at 15 and 20 days after planting of the cuttings in a Plug tray. Accelerated root formation was observed in 30 Gy irradiated group, and root growth was also enhanced in 20 and 30 Gy irradiated groups 20 days after planting. In case of irradiation combined with pre-treatment of cold storage, survival rate of cuttings was the highest (80%) in 30 Gy irradiated group. The groups treated with irradiation first before cold storage were apparently better in root formation, among which 50 Gy irradiated group showed the highest rate of root growth.

In this study, the usefulness of underground dam as a means for the sustainable development of groundwater, and its performance in the management of groundwater resources were analyzed. The fully integrated SWAT-MODFLOW was applied to the Ssangcheon watershed in Korea to evaluate the effectiveness of groundwater dam construction. After construction, the groundwater level raised in the upstream area of groundwater dam while lowered in the downstream area. Also, it is shown that the exchange rate of river-aquifer interactions increased in the upper area of the dam. Since the storage capacity of the aquifer largely increased in the upper area of the dam, the exploitable groundwater could be greatly increased as much. This study demonstrated that a groundwater dam was a very useful measure to increase the available storativity of groundwater aquifers. It also represented that the combined analysis using SWAT-MODFLOW was helpful for the design and opeation of groundwater dam in the Ssangcheon watershed.

In the case of the existing method of underground pipe construction, the difficulty of the bedding compaction of pipe causes reducing the compaction efficiency and the stability of the underground facilities and conclusively damaging the structures. One of the methods to solve these problem is using the flowable fills as a backfill material. Therefore, in this study, numerical analysis of the underground pipe was performed in order to evaluate the behavior of pipe according to backfill mixtures. To estimate the deformation characteristic of the underground pipe, the displacement of the main part of the pipe, ground settlement and vertical earth pressures were measured in different backfill mixtures and maintaining the other conditions constantly. As a result of numerical analysis, using the flowable fills as the backfill material is better than using sand in reducing the ground settlement, the pipe deformation and the vertical earth pressure aspect.

서울시 지하철은 1974년 1호선을 시작으로 현재 8호선까지 운행되고 있으며, 40 ％이상의 높은 수송 분담율을 기록하고 있다. 또한 이용 승객의 증가와 함에 주변의 지하상가와 역세권을 형성하여, 주요 교통수단 및 서울시민의 중요한 생활공간으로 자리 잡게 되었다(한근혁, 2002). 그러나 서울시 지하철의 지하역사는 실외공간과 달리 공간적 밀폐성으로 공기질 악화문제에 직면하고 있다(환경부, 2002). (중략)

Cyclosulfamuron a herbicide of sulfonylurea type, is a relatively new compound which control broad leaves and perennial weeds in rice field. However, this herbicide has a minor disadvantage of decreasing rice plant growth, especially in early growth stage. Therefore, far introducing this cyclosulfamuron as a herbicide in rice field, it is important to minimize the suppression of early plant growth with maintaining weed control efficacy. This study was conducted to evaluate effects of cyclosulfamuron early plant growth and acetolactate synthase activity of rice (Oryza sativa cv Dongjinbyeo, Hwasungbyeo, Ilpumbyeo). Rice growth was inhibited by cyclosulfamuron in their early growth stage. The concentrations required far 50% inhibition of Dongjinbyeo, Hwasungbyeo and Ilpumbyeo growth were 6.3, 9.2 and 146.mg/kg, respectively. Inhibition effect of cyclosulfamuron on the root elongation was greater than the effect on the shoot growth. Concentrations required far 50% inhibition of acetolactate synthase activity from Dongjinbyeo, Hwasungbyeo, Ilpumbyeo were 42.7, 32.7 and $56.7\;{\mu}M$, respectively.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of Zn and Cu on physiological responses of tobacco at the different leaf ages for the purpose of phytoremediation of heavy metal contaminated field. Plant height was significantly decreased at Zn and Cu concentrations of 1.0 mM or higher. Especially, root dry weight decreased more (50% reduced) than shoot dry weight. Zn and Cu accumulation in the shoot and root was dramatically increased after 2.0 mM treatment. The accumulation pattern was different by leaf aging in that Zn accumulated more in senescence leaf and Cu accumulated more in growing leaf. The amounts of heavy metal accumulations per plant were 146,000 mg/kg for Zn and 20,500 mg/kg for Cu at 2.0 mM treatment. The proper harvesting time would be suggested as vegetative growth stage for Zn and reproductive stage for Cu. The concentrations of other inorganic ions (Mg, Mn, Fe) were decreased when Zn and Cu concentrations were increased. Cu concentration and Zn concentration of both shoot and root were decreased in Zn treatment and Cu treatment, respectively.
