Nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen have been widely known as important source of algal appearance in eutrophic water. In order to prevent lake eutrophication, it is required to remove these nutrients not only presented in the lake water, but also released from the sediment. In order to solve this problem this study, the trivalent lanthanum ions and ammonia Nitrogen ($NH_4{^+}-N$) for the adsorption capacity of a zeolite support as it combines the lake water has dissolved in the nutrient removal, as well as deposits in the eluted in the continuously adsorbing the complex to develop and study was to inhibit the growth of algae. In experimental results, lanthanum complexes when the adsorption characteristics were evaluated $PO_4{^{3-}}-P$ and the $NH_4{^+}-N$ removal was confirmed that has an excellent ability, when it applied lake water the time of Chl-a and the turbidity decreased. In this study, these results suggest that the lanthanum complexes produced inhibitory effects on algae in the lake water is determined to excellent. Further, when applied to a complex of lanthanum in lake water to a standard 48 hours Acute Toxicity Method of toxicity were measured, and the results for the toxic effect was not observed.

A physicochemical process called ultra rapid coagulation(URC) was applied as a pilot scale to recover eutrophicated lake water at Inkyung Lake located on-campus in Inha university. The URC was uniquely designed to completely remove the presence of phosphorus up to 95%, which in turn leading to lessen the level of eutrophication of lake. For a pilot test of period, the lake was restored showing Carlson's Trophic State Index(TSI) of mesotrophic state which accounts for the reduction of total phosphorus and chlorophyll-a down to approximately 55 from 70 and 73, respectively. A residual presence of aluminum and additional coagulants in the effluent was tested for their potential effects on Photobacterium phosphoreum. The effect concentration ($EC_{50}$-15 min) observed in the effluent revealed that the bioactivity of Photobacterium phosphoreum was not influenced by the residual presence of coagulants. After the pilot test of period, the lake was consequently restored as a mesotrophic state in obtaining the second grade of lake water quality. The URC may be further applied for restoration of greater scale of lake in eutrophication.

Objectives : This study aimed to examine a correlation between the somatic complaints, emotion, vocabulary and alexithymia as a component of personality in normal persons. Methods : 204 subjects were collected by age-based systematic sampling from the 662 persons without confirmed medical illness. We used the Korean version of 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale(TAS-20K) to measure alexithymia. The somatic complaints were checked by the list of somatic symptoms on the diagnostic criteria of somatization disorder and major depressive episode in DSM-IV. The vocabulary was evaluated by the total number of associating-words from the spontaneous association of word and the secondary association to given words. The anxiety and depression were evaluated using 5-point self-report scale. Results : 1) The degree of alexithymia was significantly correlated with the somatic complaints, anxiety, depression. 2) The somatic complaints were significantly correlated with the anxiety and depression. 3) The number of associating-words showed negative correlation with the age. 4) The degree of alexithymia was not correlated with the number of associating-words. Conclusion : The more degree of alexithymia increased, the more somatic complaints appeared. There was a significant correlation between the degree of alexithymia, anxiety and depression. But the degree of alexithymia was not correlated with the amount of vocabulary.

담수는 인간의 생존에 필수적인 요소이다. 우리는 매일 일정량의 물을 섭취하고 있으며, 일상에서 직접, 간접적으로 물과 관련되지 않고서는 생활할 수 없다. 지구 표면의 약 70%가 물로서 덮여 있다고는 하지만 인간의 생활에 직접적인 이용가치가 있는 담수(지표수)는 전체 물의 용적의 2%에 지나지 않는다. 한국의 연평균 강수량은 1,274mm로서 세계 연평균 강수량인 970mm보다 많은 편이나 인구 1인당 연간 강수량은 약 3,000m3으로서 세계 평균인 34,000m3의 11분의 1에 지나지 않는다. 수자원총량중 지하침투와 증발에 의해 손실되는 양을 제외한 하천유출량은 전체의 55%인 697억m3으로서 이것이 곧 가용수자원량이다. 그러나 하절기 강우집중도가 높은 우리나라 실정에서는 가용수자뭔량중 수자원총량의 37%가 홍수시 유출되고 실제 이용량은 수자원총량의 18%인 230억m3에 불과하여 인구증가와 함께 수자원의 가치가 더욱 증대하고 있는 실정이다. 더우기 지하수 이용량은 19억m3에 불과함에 따라 우리나라는 실제 이응수자 원량의 90% 이상을 지표수에 의존하고 있으며, 그 중 약 40%가 호소수로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 수자원 이용효율의 취약성으로 인해 제한된 수자원 용량과 생활 및 농공용수의 과수요에 따른 불균형으로 근래 많은 하천이 갈수기나 평수기시 친천화되어 가고 있어 수중생태계에 큰 위협을 주고 있다. 또한 이에 더하여 산업발달과 함께 수질오염원은 양적으로는 물론 질적으로도 증가일로에 있어 기존의 유기 및 중금속 오염물질을 포함해 수많은 신생 유기화합물질이 수계에 유출되고 있으며, 이에 더해 질소 및 인으로 대표되는 영양물질의 유입과다로 국내 대다수의 호수가 부영양화의 새로운 위협에 직 면해 있다. 우리나라에는 적은 유입유량에 큰 저수용량 및 긴 체류시간으로 대표되는 대규모 자연호는 없으며, 대부분이 매단위 강을 막아 형성된 체류시간 1년 이하의 인공호로서 그 중 안동호, 충주호, 대청호 등은 비교적 체류시간이 긴 호소형 인공호로, 팔당호나 기타 대부분의 호수는 체류시간이 짧은 하천형 인공호로 대별된다(Table 1). 이처럼 국내 호소는 국외의 자연 호와는 다른 구조적 특성을 가짐에 따라 부영양화 특성 역시 매우 상이하고, 호소형 인공호와 하천형 인공호간의 차이 역시 현저하여 일률적인 관리대책을 설정하기가 어려운 실정에 있다. 또한 각 호수의 유역특성이 상이함에 따라 호수별로 유역 오염원의 오염부하율이 현저히 달라(Table 2) 호수에 따른 특성적인 유역관리(Lake-specific management)가 요구되고 있다 정상상태(Steady state)가 아닌 국내 호소에 대해 국외 자연호의 인단순모델 (Simple phosphorus budget model)을 그대로 적용하는 것에 다소 무리한 점이 따르나, 평균적인 개념으로 OECD의 유역부하량 및 호소특성에 따른 부영양화 판정모델을 적용한다면, 국내 주요 호수는 모두 부영양 수준에 있다. 또 각 호수별로 부영양화 제어를 위해 요구되는 인의 삭감부하량은 상당량이 되어 현실적으로 관리가 이미 어려운 실정에 와 있다. 호수의 부영양화는 조류 발생으로 이어지며, 그에 따른 폐해는 각종 형태로 나타나는데 대표적으로 이취미 발생이나 유해조류에 의한 독성물질의 배출, 정수처리 과정의 THM 발생등이 주로 문제가 되고 있다. 따라서 국내 호수의 구조적 특성별 부영양화 실태를 파악하고 그에 따른 영향 및 관리방안에 관한 종합적 고찰이 차후 수질관리를 위해 요구되고 있으며, 특히 납조류로 대표되는 유해조류의 독성영향에 관한 연구는 시급한 실정에 있다.

With a few exceptions, Korean lakes are artificially constructed for multi-purposes throughout the country. In the majority of cases, a lake is in a multiple series of reservoirs along a river or is an estuary Moreover, nutrient supplying activities (including sand extraction) and biomanipulation(esp., overfishing and fish introduction) are omnipresent in most cases. Furthermore, there is an Asian monsoon every year. In brief, europhication and algal blooms break out as a result of complicated causes. However limnological monitoring and scientific working programs are in the course of beginning. The question is what kind of strategy is desirable to establish a solid limnological database for the efficiency of the restoration process in each Korean reservoir We present light monitoring cases on the basis of algal and some physicochemical data in 2005. Do they give some useful informations despite their simplicity. Based on physicochemical factors and phytoplankton data using Utermohl method and Canonical Correspondence Analysis(CCA) were performed for Lake Cheongpyeong, Lake ASan, Lake Namyang, and Lake SapGyo. The results of CCA showed that Lake Cheongpyeong was different from the other three Lakes at estuary. Also each Lake at estuary was slightly different from one other. This result would encourage to initiate building an adequate Korean reservoir-ecosystem understanding and models for better ecological management despite the limited data. However, the results also indicate to sustain collecting ecological data and building database to interpret the Korean ecological reservoir model.

A mechanical lumped parameter model is proposed for the dynamic modeling of a semi-infinite reservoir. A semi-analytic transmitting boundary is derived for a semi-infinite 2-D reservoir of constant depth. The characteristics of the solution are examined in both frequency and time domains. Mass, damping and spring coefficients of the mechanical model are obtained to preserve the major features of the solution such as eigenfrequencies and the shapes of Bessel functions that appear as kernels in the convolution integrals. The lumped parameter model in its final form consists of two masses, a spring and two dampers for each eigenfrequency. Application examples demonstrated that the new lumped parameter model could be used for the time domain analysis of dam-reservoir systems.

Fatigue is a significant problem in health care. The relationship between chronic fatigue and psychiatric disorders has generated significant interest in recent years. Increased rates of psychiatric disorder among individuals with chronic fatigue have been reported. Fatigue may be defined as physical and/or mental weariness resulting from exertion. The cause of fatigue is complex, influenced by events occurring in both the periphery and the central nervous system. Because fatigue may result from a number of causes, it should be treated comprehensively. The treatment is largely symptomatic and rehabilitative.

Professor Hasuk Song argues that every argumentum ad ignorantiam, i.e. the argument from ignorance is not fallacious, and social contexts play a crucial role to judge whether the argument is fallacious or not. I generally agree with him, but I think we cannot have help from his position without knowing what those contexts are. In this paper, I argue that the concept of burden of proof is the crucial one to judge whether ad ignorantiam is plausible or not, and then present four criterions who have the burden of proof. There is a burden of proof on one who argues first, who insists the doubtful ones, who has powers, and who thinks that a situation is not dangerous.

충주호는 충청권의 생 공 농업용수로 이용되는 광역상수원이며, 2016년 기준 연간 약 3만6천톤이 방류되어 남한강 전체 수질에 큰 영향을 미친다. 현재 충주호는 상류 유역의 오염원이 적게 분포하여 1급수의 수질기준을 만족하고 있으나, 상류 유역의 개발로 오염원 유입이 증가할 경우 호소 내 수질 및 남한강 전체 수질에 악영향을 미칠 수 있다. 따라서 충주댐 상류 유역의 오염부 하량 변화에 따른 수질변화를 예측하고, 현재수질 유지를 위한 허용 오염부하량을 산정할 필요가 있다. 한편, EFDC-WASP 연계모델은 수리학적 계산을 보다 정확하게 할 수 있는 동시에 이를 수질모델에 사용할 수 있어 다수의 연구자들에 의해 호소의 수질 모델링이 이루어졌으며 적용성이 많이 검증되었다. 본 연구에서는 EFDC-WASP 연계 모형을 이용하여 충주댐 상류유역의 배출부하 변화에 따른 호내 수질특성 변화를 분석하고자 한다. 모의구간은 충주댐의 유입지점부터 방류지점까지로, 수치해석을 위한 격자망은 총 800여개의 격자로 구성하였다. 수위자료는 한강홍수통제소에서 제공하는 충주댐 수위자료를 사용하였으며, 수질자료는 환경부 호소 측정지점인 충주호1,2,3 의 자료와 하천 측정지점인 제천A과 한강B의 자료를 사용하였다. 모의기간은 2013-2015년으로 2013년은 모델의 안정기로, 2014년은 보정, 2015년은 검정에 각각 활용하였다. 보검정된 모델을 활용하여 유입부하량 변화에 따른 수질변화를 모의하였고, 1급수 수질을 만족하는 허용부하량을 도출하였다. 본 연구의 방법은 향후 호소 상류유역의 개발에 따른 수질변화 예측과 허용부하량 산정에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
