Quartz veins from the Jukwangri area of Hwawon-myeon are epithermal quartz veins that are filling the NW or NE-trending faults within Precambrian metasedimentary rocks. Based on their prolongation and ore grades, No. 1 quartz vein can be traced for about 200 m and varies 0.1 to 3 m in thickness. Mineralization of No. 1 quartz vein can be divided into hypogene and supergene stages. Hypogene stage is associated with hydrothermal alteration minerals(phyllic and argillic zones) such as illite, sericite and sulfides such as pyrite, arsenopyrite, sphalerite. chalcopyrite, galena, argentian tetrahedrite. Supergene stage is composed of Fe-Mn oxide, Zn-Fe oxide and Pb oxide. Fluid inclusion data indicate that homogenization temperature and salinity of hypogene stage range from 187 to $306^{\circ}C$ and ken 0.0 to 6.2 wt.% eq. NaCl, respectively. They suggest that ore forming fluids were progressively cooled and diluted from mixing with meteoric water. Oxygen($-4.1{\sim}4.1%o$) and hydrogen($-107{\sim}-88%o$) isotope com-positions indicated that hydrothermal fluids were derived from meteoric and evolved by progressive mixing with meteoric water during mineralization.

Traffic congestion cost is increasing annually. Specifically congestion caused by the CDB traffic contains more than a half of the total congestion cost. Recent advancement in the field of Big Data, AI paved the way to industry revolution 4.0. And, these new technologies creates tremendous changes in the traffic information dissemination. Eventually, accurate and timely traffic information will give a positive impact on decreasing traffic congestion cost. This study, therefore, focused on developing both recurrent and non-recurrent congestion prediction models on urban roads by adopting Recurrent Neural Network(RNN), a tribe in machine learning. Two hidden layers with scaled conjugate gradient backpropagation algorithm were selected, and tested. Result of the analysis driven the authors to 25 meaningful links out of 33 total links that have appropriate mean square errors. Authors concluded that RNN model is a feasible model to predict congestion.

Fermentation studies were conducted in batch and continuous flow cell-recycle reactors with food by-products as substrates. The genus Propionibacterium acidipropionici ATCC 4965 was utilized in the production of organic acids. Good performance was achieved in the batch fermentation using hydrol as a carbon source and corn steep liquor (CSL) as nitrogen and vitamin sources. Product yields and productivity based on maximum values were 0.80 g total acids/g glucose and 0.26 g total acids/L/h, respectively, when $3\%$, (w/v) of hydrol and $2.5\%$, (w/v) of CSL were utilized. Continuous fermentation with cell-recycling system using the optimum amounts of substrates resulted in dramatic increase in cell concentration (X) and maximum productivity (P). Compared to the batch fermentation, X and P were increased by as much as 21 and 13 times, respectively, at the dilution ratio of $0.2\;hr^{-1}$, indicating that cell recycling fermentation of food by-products provides valuable means for the mass production of organic acids as well as utilizing cell mass as good nutrient resources.

A leachate containing an elevated concentration of organic and inorganic compounds has the potential to contaminate adjacent soils and groundwater as well as downgradient areas of the watershed. Moreover high-strength ammonium concentrations in leachate can be toxic to aquatic ecological systems as well as consuming dissolved oxygen, due to ammonium oxidation, and thereby causing eutrophication of the watershed. In response to these concerns landfill stabilization and leachate treatment are required to reduce contaminant loading sand minimize effects on the environment. Compared with other treatment technologies, leachate recirculation technology is most effective for the pre-treatment of leachate and the acceleration of waste stabilization processes in a landfill. However, leachate recirculation that accelerates the decomposition of readily degradable organic matter might also be generating high-strength ammonium in the leachate. Since most landfill leachate having high concentrations of nitrogen also contain insufficient quantities of the organic carbon required for complete denitrification, we combined a shortcut biological nitrogen removal (SBNR) technology in order to solve the problem associated with the inability to denitrify the oxidized ammonium due to the lack of carbon sources. The accumulation of nitrite was successfully achieved at a 0.8 ratio of $NO_2^{-}-N/NO_x-N$ in an on-site reactor of the sequencing batch reactor (SBR) type that had operated for six hours in an aeration phase. The $NO_x$-N ratio in leachate produced following SBR treatment was reduced in the landfill and the denitrification mechanism is implied sulfur-based autotrophic denitrification and/or heterotrophic denitrification. The combined leachate recirculation with SBNR proved an effective technology for landfill stabilization and nitrogen removal in leachate.

Pallancata Ag mine is located at the Ayacucho region 520 km southeast of Lima. The geology of mine area consists of mainly Cenozoic volcanic-intrusive rocks, which are composed of tuff, andesitic lava, andesitic tuff, pyroclastic flow, volcano clasts, rhyolite and quartz monzonite. This mine have about 100 quartz veins in tuff filling regional faults orienting NW, NE and EW directions. The Ag grades in quartz veins are from 40 to 1,000 g/t. Quartz veins vary from 0.1 m to 25 m in thickness and extend to about 3,000 m in strike length. Quartz veins show following textures including zonation, cavity, massive, breccia, crustiform, colloform and comb textures. Wallrock alteration features including silicification, sericitization, pyritization, chloritization and argillitization are obvious. The quartz veins contain calcite, chalcedony, adularia, fluorite, rutile, zircon, apatite, Fe oxide, REE mineral, Cr oxide, Al-Si-O mineral, pyrite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena, electrum, proustite-pyrargyrite, pearceite-polybasite and acanthite. The temperature and sulfur fugacity ($f_{s2}$) of the Ag mineralization estimated from the mineral assemblages and mineral compositions are ranging from 118 to $222^{\circ}C$ and from $10^{-20.8}$ to $10^{-13.2}atm$, respectively. The relatively low temperature and sulfur-oxygen fugacities in the hydrothermal fluids during the Ag mineralization in Pallancata might be due to cooling and/or boiling of Ag-bearing fluids by mixing of meteoric water in the relatively shallow hydrothermal environment. The hydrothermal condition may be corresponding to an intermediate sulfidation epithermal mineralization.

The Geochang Au-Ag deposit is located within the Yeongnam Massif. Within the area a number of hydrothermal quartz and calcite veins were formed by narrow open-space filling of parallel and subparallel fractures in the granitic gneiss and/or gneissic granite. Mineral paragenesis can be divided into two stages (stage I, ore-bearing quartz vein; stage II, barren calcite vein) by major tectonic fracturing. Stage I, at which the precipitation of major ore minerals occurred, is further divided into three substages (early, middle and late) with paragenetic time based on minor fractures and discernible mineral assemblages: early, marked by deposition of pyrite with minor pyrrhotite and arsenopyrite; middle, characterized by introduction of electrum and base-metal sulfides with minor sulfosalts; late, marked by hematite with base-metal sulfides. Fluid inclusion data show that stage I ore mineralization was deposited between initial high temperatures (≥380℃ ) and later lower temperatures (≤210℃ ) from H₂O-CO₂-NaCl fluids with salinities between 7.0 to 0.7 equiv. wt. % NaCl of Geochang hydrothermal system. The relationship between salinity and homogenization temperature indicates a complex history of boiling, fluid unmixing (CO₂ effervescence), cooling and dilution via influx of cooler, more dilute meteoric waters over the temperature range ≥380℃ to ≤210℃. Changes in stage I vein mineralogy reflect decreasing temperature and fugacity of sulfur by evolution of the Geochang hydrothermal system with increasing paragenetic time. The Geochang deposit may represents a mesothermal gold-silver deposit.

The Dongwon Au-Ag deposit is located within the Paleozoic Taebaeksan province, Okcheon belt. Mineral paragenesis can be divided into two stages (stage I, ore-bearing quartz veins; stage II, barren carbonate veins) by major tectonic fracturing. Stage I, at which the precipitation of major ore minerals occurred, is further divided into three substages(early, middle and late) with paragenetic time based on minor fractures and discernible mineral assemblages: early, marked by deposition of pyrite with minor magnetite, pyrrhotite and arsenopyrite; middle, characterized by introduction of electrum and base-metal sulfides with minor sulfosalts; late, marked by argentite, Cu-As (and/or Sb) and Ag-Sb sulfosalts with base-metal sulfides. Fluid inclusion data show that stage I ore mineralization was deposited between initial high temperatures (≥430℃) and later lower temperatures (≤230℃) from fluids with salinities between 6.0 to 0.4 wt. percent equiv. NaCl. The relationship of salinity and homogenization temperature suggest that ore mineralization at Dongwon was deposited mainly due to fluid boiling, cooling and dilution via influx of cooler, more dilute meteoric waters. Changes in stage I vein mineralogy reflect decreasing temperature and fugacity of sulfur by evolution of the Dongwon hydrothermal system with increasing paragenetic time. The Dongwon deposit may represents a Korean-type and/or Au-Ag type mesothermal/epithermal gold-silver deposit.

다덕 광산 폐석내 섬아연석과 함망간탄산염 광물의 풍화현상과 그에 따른 중금속의 거동을 조사 하였다. 섬아연석은 풍화초기에 극미립 산화철의 망상구조 집합체로 교대되었으며, 후기에는 자연황이 용해중인 섬아연석과 산화철 집합체 사이에 침전되었다. 산화철 집합체에는 As가 다량 함유되어 있다. 능망간석와 함망간 방해석은 함아연산화망간의 망상구조 집합체로 교대되었으며, 함망간방해서과 함아연산화망간 사이에는 스미소나이트가 침전되었다. 선택적 용해외 X선회절분석을 이용하여 감정한 결과, 함아연산화망간은 헤테롤라이트/하이드로헤테롤라이트인 것으로 판명되었다. Zn의 일부는 규산과 결합하여 입간 공극에 월레마이트로 침전되었다. 풍화 초기에 형성되는 극미립 산화철 및 함아연산화망간의 치밀한 망상 집합체는 풍화용액의 순환을 차단하여, 모광물의 풍화 반응을 지체시키는 지화학적 장벽 역할을 하였다. 이에 따라 망상구조 내에 조성된 국지적 미환경하에서 풍화중간산물들이 침전되었다. 이상의 연구 결과로 다음과 같은 사항을 추론할 수 있다. 섬아연석의 Fe와 함망간탄산염의 Mn은 각각 산화철과 산화망간으로 침전되어 산성화에 기여하였다. 폐광석 더미내 As의 활동도는 저결정질 산화철에의 흡착에 의해 조절되며, Zn의 활동도는 미소환경조건에 따라 하이드로헤테롤라이트/헤테롤라이트, 스미소나이트, 월레마이트 등의 다양한 이차광물의 용해도에 의하여 조절된다.

최근 지구온난화와 기후변화에 관련된 각종 징후들이 여러 분야에서 주요 화두로 자주등장하고 있다. 이들은 주로 평균기온의 상승이나 강우패턴의 변동 등과 같은 기상학적 특성변화를 중심으로 다루어지고 있는데 이를 수문학적 관점에서 유추해 본다면 물 순환과정(hydrological cycle)내 성분별 거동양상의 변화로 해석할 수 있을 것이다. 유역의 특성을 파악하고 발생할 수 있는 수자원의 양적 불균형에 따른 문제점을 탐지하여 그에 대비하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 신속한 정보의 제공이 우선되어야 한다. 또한 이러한 정보를 이용하여 유역의 습윤 및 건조 상황을 모니터링하거나 예측하기 위해서는 즉각적이고 연속적인 정보의 수집이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 기 수행된 연구결과를 바탕으로 기후학적 물수지 방법에 의하여 1998년부터 2004년까지의 금강유역에 대한 습윤지표를 산정하였다. 그러나 습윤지표가 유역의 습윤 혹은 건조상태를 반영한다고 하나 습윤지표에 익숙하지 않은 사용자의 경우 직관적으로 이 지표만을 이용하여 유역의 상황을 판단하기에는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 습윤지표를 통계학적 분포특성에 따라 유역의 습윤 및 건조 상황으로 분류하는 방법을 제안하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 당시 지역적 실제 현상과의 연관성 등을 통하여 가뭄을 평가하는 방법을 제안하고 자 한다.
