Seven feeding trials were conducted to determine the effects of feeding rate and frequency in the Korean rockfish Sebastes schlegeli at seven different water temperatures. Two feeding-rate experiments for 5-g Korean rockfish at $17^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$; three feeding rate experiments for 16-g Korean rockfish at $16^{\circ}C$ and $24^{\circ}C$; and finally, two feeding frequency experiments for 93- and 100-g at $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ were conducted. Twenty fish averaging $5.5{\pm}0.2$ g ($mean{\pm}SD$) were randomly distributed into 18 indoor tanks containing 40-L seawater from a semi-recirculation system. Fish were fed a commercial diet for 4 weeks at water temperatures of $17^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$. Two feeding trials were conducted to determine the optimum feeding frequency in growing Korean rockfish reared at temperatures of $15^{\circ}C$ and $19^{\circ}C$. Broken line regression analysis of weight gain (WG) indicated that the optimum feeding rates of 5-g growing Korean rockfish were 4.48% (BW/day; BW, body weight) at $17^{\circ}C$ and 4.83% (BW/day) at $20^{\circ}C$. Broken line regression analysis of WG showed optimum feeding rates of 16-g juvenile Korean rockfish of 3.41% (BW/day) at $16^{\circ}C$, 3.75% (BW/day) at $20^{\circ}C$, and 3.34% (BW/day) at $24^{\circ}C$. The biological performance, results, along with morphological indices and serological characteristics, suggest that a feeding frequency of 1 meal/day was optimal to improve WG in growing Korean rockfish grown from 93 to 133 g at a water temperature of $15^{\circ}C$, and 100 to 132 g at $19^{\circ}C$.

To know the effects on temperature and body size on the clearance rate (CR) of a small tidal flat bivalve, Coecella chinensis, laboratory experiments were performed with 20 individuals of different sizes (ranging from 7 to 25 mm) at 3 different temperatures (10, 15, $20^{\circ}C$). The relationship between body size and CR was determined by an allometric equation. The CR of C. chinensis varied greatly ranging from 0.003 to 0.103 L/individual/hr. Both temperature and body size affected significantly on the CR of C. chinensis. The CR at $20^{\circ}C$was 1.5 times higher than that at $15^{\circ}C$ and 2.8 times than $10^{\circ}C$. The temperature coefficient ($Q_10$) between 10 and $15^{\circ}C$ was higher than that between 15 and $20^{\circ}C$, which indicates that C. chinensis changes its CR more rapidly in lower temperature range. As body size increased, the CR increased more than 10-fold at all temperatures. The CR relative to flesh dry weight (FDW) were fitted well to the power function: CR = a ${\times}$ $(FDW)^b$. The exponent value (b) of the fitted equation ranged from 0.64 to 0.70, which are similar to those of other bivalves. The weight-specific CR ($CR_w$) was still affected by body size (p < 0.05). This implies that smaller individuals require more energy per unit biomass for growth, and the energy requirement for growth decreases as body size increases.

Pickled crabs made using Charybdis japonica are becoming part of our dietary habits. Yet research on this food is disappointingly scarce. It is generally accepted that the original food composition of pickled crabs defies scrutiny because various seasonings are added to soy for the production of pickled crabs in most regions. Accordingly, this study attempted to measure the food composition of the Charybdis japonica preserved in brine according to different storage days (10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 days) and different temperatures ($5{^{\circ}C}$, $15{^{\circ}C}$, and ambient temperature). It was found that Charybdis japonica is comprised of moisture (77.5％), ash (2.3％), crude protein (19.7％), and crude lipid (0.5％). The content of crude protein and crude lipid during the storage period tended to decrease over time.

In this study, lead-free $(Ba_{0.85}Ca_{0.15})(Ti_{1-x}Zr_x)O_3$ ceramics and a bimorph-type piezoelectric actuator were fabricated using the normal oxide-mixed sintering method, and their dielectric properties, microstructure, and displacement properties were investigated. From the results of X-ray diffraction, the pattern of the specimen has a pure perovskite structure. In addition, no secondary impurity phases were found. The excellent piezoelectric coefficient of $d_{33}=454pC/N$, the electromechanical coupling factor $k_p=0.51$, the dielectric constant ${\varepsilon}_r=3,657$, the mechanical quality factor $Q_m=239$, and $T_c$(Tetragonal-Cubic) =$90^{\circ}C$ were shown at x= 0.085. ${\Delta}k_p/k_p20^{\circ}C$ and ${\Delta}f_r/f_r20^{\circ}C$ showed the maximum value of -0.255 and 0.111 at $-20^{\circ}C$ and $80^{\circ}C$, respectively. The maximum total-displacement was $60{\mu}m$ under the input voltage of 50 V. As a result, it is considered that lead-free $(Ba_{0.85}Ca_{0.15})(Ti_{1-x}Zr_x)O_3$ ceramics is a promising candidate for piezoelectric actuator application for x= 0.085.

In this paper, the (S $r_{0.85}$.C $a_{0.15}$)Ti $O_{3}$ of paraelectric grain boundary layer (GBL) ceramics were fabricated, and the analysis of microstructuye and the thermally stimulated current(TSC) were investigated for understanding effects of GBL's interfacial phenomenon on variations of electrical properties. As a result, the three peaks of .alpha., .alpha. and .betha. were obtained at the temperature of -20 [.deg. C], 20[.deg. C] and 80[.deg. C], respectively. The origins of these peaks are that the .alpha. peak observed at -20[.deg. C] looks like to be ascribed to the ionization excitation from donor level in the grain, and the .alpha.' peak observed at 20[.deg. C] appears to show up by detrap of the trapped carrier of border between the oxidation layer and the grain, and the .betha. peak observed at 80[.deg. C] seems to be resulted from hopping conduction of existing carrier in the trap site of the border between the oxidation and second phase. and second phase.

This study is to analyze the effects of the growth temperature of mungbean sprouts ($15{\sim}30{\pm}1^{\circ}C$) on the yield ratio, content of phenolic compounds and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl), ADH (alcohol dehydrogenase), ALDH (aldehyde dehydrogenase) activities of the sprouts. When the growth temperature of mungbean sprouts was higher, the yield ratio of the sprouts was higher while the hard seed rate was lower, but $25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ and $30{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ showed no regular tendency. The content of the total phenol from the ethanol extract of the sprouts was higher in the growth temperature of $15{\pm}1$, $20{\pm}1$, and $25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, while the content of total flavonoid was higher in the growth temperature of $15{\pm}1$, and $20{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of the ethanol extract of the sprouts was higher when the growth temperature was lower, while the activity of ADH and ALDH showed no regular tendency according to the growth temperature. Considering the yield ratio, content of phenolic compounds, biological activities of mungbean sprouts, the optimum cultivation temperature of mungbean sprouts may be $20{\sim}25^{\circ}C$.

The influence of root zone temperature to the induction of inflorescence and growth of Phalaenopsis was investigated. Root zone temperatures were 15, 20, 25, and $30^{\circ}C$, while the air temperature was kept over $28^{\circ}C$ during three months. $CO_2$ uptake, fresh weight, dry weight and branched root number of Phalaenopsis were highest at $25^{\circ}C$ and lowest at $15^{\circ}C$. But, the anthocyanin content was highest at $15^{\circ}C$ and lowest at $25^{\circ}C$. Inflorescence was not induced by root zone cooling temperature below $25^{\circ}C$ for three months. The concentrations of K, Ca and Mg in leaves were changed according to the root zone temperature, but those of N and P were not changed. K content was high at $20^{\circ}C$, whereas Ca and Mg contents were high at $25^{\circ}C$ root zone temperature. This study indicates that Phalaenopsis perceives temperature by shoot and the optimum root-zone temperature for the vegetative growth is $25^{\circ}C$.

Conductive SiC-$ZrB_2$ composites were produced by subjection a 40:60(vol%) mixture of zirconium diborided ($ZrB_2$) powder and ${\beta}$-silicon carbide (SiC) matrix to spark plasma sintering (SPS) under argon atmosphere. Inner diameters of graphite mold were $15mm{\varphi}$ and $20mm{\varphi}$, respectively. The relative densities of $15mm{\varphi}$ and $20mm{\varphi}$ sample were 99.4% and 97.88%, respectively. Reactions between ${\beta}$-SiC and $ZrB_2$ were not observed via x-ray diffraction (hereafter, XRD) analysis. The result of FE-SEM of fracture face of $15mm{\varphi}$ sample was intergranular fracture and that of $20mm{\varphi}$ sample was transgranular fracture. Because the fracture strength of $15mm{\varphi}$ sample was much higher than that of $20mm{\varphi}$ sample. The electrical resistivity, $9.37{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ of $15mm{\varphi}$ sample was higher than that, $6.17{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ of $20mm{\varphi}$ sample because of densification. Although sintering condition of SPS is same. the properties of sintered SiC-$ZrB_2$ compacts were changed according to inner diameter of graphite mold.

Germination and seedling growth of chinese milkyetch (Astragalus sinicus L. Line A) seeds were measured at four temperatures (15. 25. 30, and 35$^{\circ}C$), three polyethylene glycol (PEG) 10.000 (MW) solutions (0, 20 and 25 g/100$m\ell$ H$_2$O), and five sulfuric acid treatments (conc, H$_2$SO$_4$: Seeds/weight base: 0, 1:1 10min.. 1:1 20min.. 1:1.5 10min. and 1:1.5 20min, immersion), Adjustments of PEG 10.000 solutions were based on water potentials of 0.0, -0,5 and -0.8 ㎫ at room temperature. Observations were taken at 7 days for each treatment combinations. Germination percent of chinese mikvetch seeds was the highest at 15$^{\circ}C$ and seeding length was the longest at 25$^{\circ}C$. Both germination percent and seedling length were rapidly decreased as PEG concentration increased from 0 to 25g/100$m\ell$ H$_2$O. The highest germination percent was found at PEG 20 and 25 of 15$^{\circ}C$ among those of four temperatures, Sulfuric acid treatments showed little effect on germination percent and seedling length compared to untreated control, However. in the case of PEG 0, greater germination perccent was obtained at the treatment of 1:1.5 for 10 minutes immersion, The result of this study-indicated that germination of chinese milkvetch seeds was affected mostly by moisture stress conditions.

Effects of temperature on the development and reproduction of the Udea ferrugalis Hubner were investigated at various temperatures (10, 15, 18, 20, 23, 25, 27, 30$\^{C}$). The development times of eggs, larvae, prepupae and pupae were shorter in higher temperatures than in lower ones. Egg and pupa did not develop at 10$\^{C}$. The lower developmental threshold temperatures for eggs, larvae, pupae were 9.5, 9.6 and 11.9$\^{C}$, respectively, and their thermal requirements for development completion were 87.9, 200.9 and 119.7 degree-days at the same temperature, respectively. Adult longevity was 25.2 days at 15$\^{C}$, 7.3 at 23$\^{C}$ and 5.3 at 30$\^{C}$. Mean fecundity per female was higher at 20-23$\^{C}$ compared to other temperatures. Mean generation time in days (T) was shorter in higher temperature region. Net reproductive rate per generation (Ro) was lowest at 15$\^{C}$ (138.2) and it was highest at 20$\^{C}$ (265.4). The intrinsic rate of natural increase (r$\_$m/) was highest at 25$\^{C}$ as 0.247. As a result, it was considered that optimum range of temperature for U. ferrugalis growth was 20.0 to 23$\^{C}$.
