Quantitative understanding of total carbon, total inorganic carbon and total organic carbon contained in ocean sediments is a basic data for interpretation of oceanic sediment environments. Elemental analyzer(EA) is frequently used for the analysis of carbon contents in inland soils and ocean sediments. Carbon and nitrogen contents of the soil reference material analyzed by an EA were 2.30% and 0.21% with standard deviations of 0.02 and 0.01, respectively. Relative standard deviations were 0.01 and 0.06, respectively, representing a high precision. Regression analysis of TOC and TC analysis results for the samples with TOC of less than 2.0% for the site in Hyung-Do showed a linear relationship with a slope of 0.9743($R^2$=0.9989, n=38), and the results of a relationship regression analysis between total organic carbon contents less than 0.5% and average grain size except for two samples showed a linear relationship with a slope of 0.0444($R^2$=0.6937 n=36). TOC contents of surface sediments were in the ranges of 0.10~1.67%(Average $0.26{\pm}0.37%$) with TOC values of 1.67% at S02 sampling site, 1.13% at S07 sampling site, and less than 1.00% at remaining sites. In the case of PC 01 core sediments, TOC showed the highest value of 0.20% near 70 cm. In the case of PC 02 core sediments, the highest value of 0.24% was indicated near 60 cm. The analysis method of organic carbon obtained from Hyung-Do Intertidal zone sediment sample results may be considered applicable to an organic carbon analysis for ocean sediments and useful for organic carbon analysis experiments of ocean sediments with a reduction in time required for the analysis and a high precision coupled with a high accuracy.

We determined the total C and N stocks in trees and soils after 1 year of fertilization in an experimental orchard with 16-year-old 'Niitaka' pear (Pyrus pyrifolia Nakai cv. Niitaka) trees planted at $5.0m{\times}3.0m$ spacing on a Tatura trellis system. Pear trees were fertilized at the rate of 200 kg N, 130 kg P and $180kg\;K\;ha^{-1}$. At the sampling time (August 2013), trees were uprooted, separated into six fractions [trunk, main branches, lateral branches (including shoots), leaves, fruit, and roots] and analyzed for their total C and N concentrations and dry masses. Soil samples were collected from 0 to 0.6 m in 0.1 m intervals at 0.5 m from the trunk, air-dried, passed through a 2-mm sieve, and analyzed for total C and N concentrations. Undisturbed soil core samples were also taken to determine the bulk density. Dry mass per tree was 5.6 kg for trunk, 12.0 kg f or m ain branches, 15.7 kg for lateral branches, 5.7 kg for leaves, 9.8 kg for fruits, and 10.5 kg for roots. Total amounts of C and N per tree were respectively 2.6 and 0.02 kg for trunk, 5.5 and 0.04 kg for main branches, 7.2 and 0.07 kg for lateral branches, 2.6 and 0.11 kg for leaves, 4.0 and 0.03 kg for fruit, and 4.8 and 0.05 kg for roots. Carbon and N stocks stored in the soil per hectare were 155.7 and 14.0 Mg, respectively, while those contained in pear trees were 17.8 and $0.2Mg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$ based on a tree density of 667 trees/ha. Overall, C and N stocks per hectare stored in the pear orchard were 173.6 and 14.2 Mg, respectively. Compared with results obtained in 2012, the amounts of C stocks have increased by $17.7Mg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$, while those of N stocks remained virtually unchanged ($0.66Mg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$).

The precise estimation of total and organic carbon contents in sediments is fundamental to understand the benthic environment. To test the precision and accuracy of CHN analyzer and the procedure to quantify total and organic carbon contents(using in-situ acidification with sulfurous acid($H_2SO_3$)) in the sediment, the reference material s such as Acetanilide($C_8H_9NO$), Sulfanilammide($C_6H_8N_2O_2S$), and BCSS-1(standard estuary sediment) were used. The results indicate that CHN analyzer to quantify carbon and nitrogen content has high precision(percent error=3.29%) and accuracy(relative standard deviation=1.26%). Additionally, we conducted the instrumental comparison of carbon values analyzed using CHN analyzer and Coulometeric Carbon Analyzer. Total carbon contents measured from two different instruments were highly correlated($R^2=0.9993$, n=84, p<0.0001) with a linear relationship and show no significant differences(paired t-test, p=0.0003). The organic carbon contents from two instruments also showed the similar results with a significant linear relationship($R^2=0.8867$, n=84, p<0.0001) and no significant differences(paired t-test, p<0.0001). Although it is possible to overestimate organic carbon contents for some sediment types having high inorganic carbon contents(such as calcareous ooze) due to procedural and analytical errors, analysis of organic carbon contents in sediments using CHN Analyzer and current procedures seems to provide the best estimates. Therefore, we recommend that this method can be applied to measure the carbon content in normal any sediment samples and are considered to be one of the best procedure far routine analysis of total and organic carbon.

IODP Expedition 311에서 채취한 퇴적물 시료들의 TOC 함량은 대부분 1 %미만이고 육지에서 해안으로 갈수록 높은 함량을 보여준다. TOC/TN비는 4에서 10의 범위를 가지고 있으며, 이 값은 대부분의 유기물들이 육성식물 보다는 조류기원임을 보여준다. 반면에 Rock-Eval 분석 열분석결과는 유기물들이 Type III 의 육성식물 기원임을 지시하고, 대부분의 유기물들이 미성숙단계 (immature stage)에 있음을 보여준다. 유기물 기원에 대한 지화학적 지시자들 사이의 불일치를 해결하기위해 유기물의 탄소동위원소 ($^{13}C_{org}$) 분석을 실시하였다. 분석된 유기물 탄소동위원소 값은 -28.4 $%_o$,에서 -23.0 $%_o$의 범위를 가지고 있으며, 이는 유기물들이 식물성 기원보다는 해수 및 담수의 조류가 혼합된 기원이 우세하다는 j것을 지시해준다.

탄소세는 기후변화 방지를 위한 구체적 수단으로 교토의정서에서 채택된 시장원리 중심의 유연성체계 장치와의 결합선상에서 주목을 받고 있다. 국제경쟁력 감소 총탄소배출량증가 등 잠재적 부작용에도 불구하고, 탄소세는 기후변화협약에 따른 의무감축 수행을 위한 비용 효과적인 방안으로 인식되고 있다. 선진국을 중심으로 볼 때, 지금까지 탄소세는 덴마크, 핀랜드, 네덜란드, 노르웨이, 스웨덴 등 북유럽 5개국이 부분적으로 실시하고 있으나 갖가지 예외조항의 실시로 인해 본래의 의미인 환경보호는 소홀히 취급되고 경쟁력 약화 우려가 정책결정의 주요한 변수로 작용하고 있다.

Black surface layers collected from stone pagodas were analyzed to study the effects of carbon compounds on the blackening of stone surface layer. The total amounts of carbon was measured through elemental analyser. Organic and elemental carbon were measured by combustion ihrornatographic $CO_2$ determination after elimination of carbonates carbon with acid treatment. The elemental carbon concentration in the black surface layer measured 0.52wt.%. This value is not sufficient to explain the complete blackening of stone surface. To trace the origin of carbon in black surface layer on the stone pagoda, aerosol samples for PM 10 were collected at the near sites of the pagoda. The major components of them were soluble ions(42.8wt.%), carbon(38.4 wt.%) and crustal matter(16wt.%). From the high content(13wt.%) of elemental carbon in aerosol ran be deduced that it may be a prime origin for the elemental carbon in the black surface layer on the stone pagoda. The crustal matter in aerosol can be also a origin of silicate mineral in black surface layer and plays a important role in the darkening of black surface layer.

This study was performed to find a medium material that can replace Douglas fir sawdust and rice bran in spawn media for growing spawn directly in the oyster mushroom farm. The pH range, total nitrogen source, and total carbon source of the mixed spawn medium were 5.3~5.9, 0.65~1.11%, and 47.0~49.1%, respectively. The C/N ratio was high in the mixed medium of poplar sawdust, with a low total nitrogen content. The protein content was high in the medium containing fermented Douglas fir sawdust. The mycelium growth rate was higher in the medium containing wheat bran than that in the medium containing rice bran. The highest yield per bottle was observed with poplar sawdust, oak sawdust, and rice bran mixed at a ratio of 40:40:20 (v/v/v); however, there was no significant difference observed in terms of productivity with the other treatments. Thus, when growing sawdust spawns in farms, it is efficient to use poplar sawdust, oak sawdust, and wheat bran, which are also easily available, instead of Douglas fir sawdust and rice bran.

To investigate the seasonal changes of various organic and inorganic compounds in compost, carbon compounds in compost were analyzed at various composting periods. Contents of organic matter, cellulose, total carbon, organic carbon and biodegradable carbon in compost were decreased with the progress of composting. In contrast, contents of lignin and nonbiodegradable carbon were increased a little with the progress of composting, but effective contents of lignin were decreased with the lapse of composting time, while effective contents of nonbiodegradable carbon were not changed. Total carbon contents in organic matter in compost were decreased within 9 weeks after composting, and then increased thereafter. Difference between average values of total and biodegradable carbon contents was 6.2%. Actual decay rates of all the carbon compounds were higher than decay rates of the compounds at all the experimental periods. Both of actual decay rate and decay rate of all the carbon compounds were increased rapidly within 2 weeks after composting, and thereafter the rates were increased slightly with the lapse of composting time. Especially the decay rates of cellulose were increased from 9 to 21 weeks after composting. Actual degradation capacity showed the same tendency to degradation capacity of all the carbon compounds in compost. Decay rate and degradation capacity of lignin in compost had minus values, while actual decay rate and actual degradation capacity had plus values. Highly positive correlations were observed among organic matter, cellulose, total carbon and biodegradable carbon one another. Nonbiodegradable carbon showed highly negative correlation with organic matter, cellulose, total carbon, organic carbon and biodegradable carbon, respectively. The same tendencies were observed between lignin and organic matter, cellulose, total carbon, organic carbon and biodegradable carbon. Highly positive correlation was observed between lignin and nonbiodegradable carbon in compost.

This study was conducted to determine the total carbohydrate (CHO), nitrogen free extract (NFE), non fiberous carbohydrate (NFC) and ditery fiber (NDF, neutral detergent fiber; TDF, total dietary fiber; IDF, insoluble dietary fiber; SDF, soluble dietary fiber) of 17 kinds of domestic and Chinese herbs. The samples were dried at 60t for 24 hrs and ground to pass a 0.5mm screen. The contents of NFE was ranged from $85.73\%\;to\;57.57\%$, NDF was ranged from $85.72\%\;to\; 29.74\%$, CHO was ranged from $92.68\%\;to\;63.01\%$, TDF was ranged from $87.33\%$to 17.21, IDF was ranged from $86.37\%\;to\;14.56\%$, SDF was ranged from $6.06\%\;to\;0.97\%$ on domestic herbs in dry matter basis. NFE was ranged from $95.33\%\;to\;35.24\%$, NDF was ranged from $71.48\%\;to\;29.74\%$, CHO was ranged from $78.77\%\;to\; 35.24\%$, TDF was ranged from $86.43\%\;to\;16.22\%$, IDF was ranged from $85.98\%\;to\;13.04\%$, SDF was ranged from $4.13\%\;to\;0.45\%$ on Chinese herbs in dry matter. The several components of domestic and Chinese herbs were not significantly of TDF and IDF, but SDF was significantly by tow-tailed test. The correlationship of several herbs were r=0.99 between TDF and IDF (p<0.01), r=0.51 between TDF and SDF (p<0.01)on domestic herbs. The correlationship of 10 kinds herbs r=0.99 between TDF and IDF (p<0.01), r=0.50 between TDF and SDF (p<0.01) on Chinese herbs, respectively.
