In order to clarify the effects of acid rain on soil microorganisms, the inpact of acid to soil microorganisms was survyed for 14 weeks using soil microcosms from industrial site A and B, Gaejok mountain, and Daechong lake in Taejeon area. The acid tolerant-microorganisms in natural soil, using culturing method were counted to be 5.8 - $8.0{\times}10^6$CFU/g soil. The number of microorganisms using ATP-biomass analysis for natural soil samples were also analyzed and 2.2 - $2.6{\times}10^9$ cell/g soil in industrial site A and B, Gaejok mountain, and Daechong lake were determined. In soil samples, which were treated with artificial acid rain, the number of acid tolerant microorganisms were counted 2.9 - $5.8{\times}10^5$ and 2.8 - $7.5{\times}10^8$, respectively. Therefore, we conformed that the numver of soil microorganisms were influenced by acid rain. Also, long term acid tolerant microorganisms were identified as Rhodotorula sp. and Pseudomonas sp.

In distributed environments, data replication increases availability and decreases communication cost. However, it is difficult to maintain consistency and availability of data if site failure occurs. When we use the conventional hierarchical quorum consensus(HQC) method in order to maintain the consistency of data, occurrence of site failures makes it harder to perform the operation on replicated data because of insufficient votes. The objective of this paper is to improve the possibility of retaining necessary votes by reconstructing the HQC structure, when the site failure occurs. Furthermore, we compare the modified HQC method with the conventional HQC and QC methods in terms of improvement of availability.

Crystal structure and structural stability of needle-shaped maghemite(${\gamma}$-{{{{ { {Fe }_{2 }O }_{3 } }}) have been studied by the computation and estimation of lattice energies interionic distances and site potentials. The refined struc-tures analyzed with cubic system(space group P4332) and tetragonal system(space group P4332) were used for these computations. The lattice energy of tetragonal system is -143.10eV/molecule. The maghemite structure with tetragonal system is more stable than that with cubic system. The ordering energy of the FE and cation vacancy within the octahedral site the 4b site of the structure with cubic system(space group P4332) is -0.95eV/molecule but this Fe has larger interionic distance and is very unstable.

This experiment Was carried out under two points of view, from May 1st to the end of 1973. One was the comparative determination of the activation factor of Lead dioxide by kinds in measuring of Sulfur oxides concentration by $PbO_2$ cylinder method, and the other was the comparison that result with the record of auto analyzer. Five measuring sites were selected out of Seoul City. Three kinds of Lead dioxide made in Japan (B,C and D) were compared with Standard $PbO_2$ (A for use in Determination of Sulphur in the atmosphere, purity 99% up) made in British Institution, and monthly measuring was conducted at every sampling site. The recording by auto analyzer (Beckman Model 906-A $SO_2$ Analyzer) was conducted once or twice a month for 24 hours at each sampling site during the same period. And some significant results were obtained. 1. In comparative experiments to determine the activation degree of three kinds of Lead dioxide (B,C and D), the obtained correction factor of B reagent was 1.09, 1.16 in C and 1.30 in D against Standard $PbO_2$ (A). Therefore, it should be in need of standardization or clear statement about the reagents for use, in determination sulfur oxides by $PbO_2$ cylinder method. 2. Generally, the concentration of Sulfur dioxide by wilkins' convertion method from $SO_3$ showed about 20-30% higher than those by Auto analyzer.

Population of Aeromonas and environmental parameters were investigated at three sites from August 1986, to December, 1986 in Naktong Estuary. The variation range of Aeromonas was $4.3\times10^{2}-4.6\times 10^{4}$ MPN/100ml. The result of ANOVA indicates significant differences among the populations of Aeromonas in each site. The highest population of Aeromonas occurred at site 2, and the lowest at site 3-B. To scrutinize the effects of environmental parameters on the distribution of Aeromonas spp, principal component analysis and multiple stepwise regression were used. The results showed that distribution of Aeromonas spp. was mainly influenced by outflow of freshwater and inflow of inorganic nutrients and correlated with heterotrophic bacteria, available nitrogen, fecal coliform bacteria, and temperature.

Single phase $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ ceramics doped by 10 mol% of electron donors such as $La^3,\; Pr^{3+,4+},\; Nd^{3+},\; Sm^{3+}$, were synthesized and their B-site cationic ordering structures were investigated by XRD and TEM. In the XRD patterns, only fundamental reflections were observed for the undoped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$, while the (h/2 $\textsc{k}$/2ι/2)(h,$\textsc{k}$,ι all odd) superlattice reflections resulting from the 1:1 ordering induced unit cell doubling were also observed for the donor-doped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. In the TEM selected area diffraction patterns, the (h/2 k/2 l/2)(h,k,l all odd) superlattice reflection spots as well as the fundamental reflection spots were observed for all the samples, but the relative intensities of the superlattice reflection spots to the fundamental reflection spots were significantly enhanced by the donor-doping. In the TEM dark-field images, antiphase boundaries were observed only for the donor-doped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. It was therefore experimentally verified that doping by electron donors such as $La^3,\; Pr^{3+,4+},\; Nd^{3+},\; Sm^{3+}$, enhances the B-site cationic 1:1 ordering in $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. These experimental results were interpreted in terms of the charge compensation mechanism.

The overseas calibration sites such as Mongolia used for Korea Multi-purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT-5 or K5), have a disadvantage in that maintenance and repair costs are high and immediate response is difficult when an unexpected problem occurs. Accordingly, the necessity of establishing a domestic SAR calibration site was suggested, but the progress of related research is insignificant. In this paper, we investigated what conditions should be satisfied in terms of backscattering characteristics to construct a site for SAR satellite image quality evaluation and calibration. First of all, it was selected first by applying general indicators such as accessibility and availability among places recommended as satellite image calibration candidate sitesin Korea. Next, three places, site A (Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do), site B (Jeonju-si, Jeollabuk-do), and site C (Daedeok Research Complex, Daejeon), were selected as the final candidates because they are relatively wide and easy to install AT or CR. Site A, located in Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do, was best considered in terms of slope measurements, minimum site area to obtain ISLR, uniformity of DN values and backscatter coefficients, interference by strong reflectors, and backscatter clutter level.

The L $i_{0.5}$F $e_{2.5-x}$A $l_{x}$ $O_4$ systems (x=0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, 1.2, 1.5) were investigated by X-ray diffraction and Mossbauer spectroscopy. The structure of all the samples is cubic spinel type and lattice constant decrease with increasing Al content x. The Moissbauer spectra reveal two sextet for 0$\leq$x$\leq$0.6, two sextet and a doublet for 0.9$\leq$x$\leq$1.2, and a doublet for x=1.5. The cation distribution of the samples is (L $i_{1-a}$$^{+}$F $e_{a}$ $^{3+}$)$^{A}$[L $i_{a-0.5}$$^{+}$A $l_{2.5-a-x}$$^{+}$F $e_{2.5-a-x}$$^{3+}$]$^{B}$ $O_4$$^{2-}$ and substituted $Al^{3+}$ ions decrease the covalency of F $e^{3+}$- $O^{2-}$ bond in B-sites and A-B super-exchange interactions.tions.s.tions.ons.s.

In order to express hepatitis B surface antigen $(HB_sAg)$ containing pre-surface antigen region in mammalian calls, 2.7 kb DNA fragment containing pre-surface region-$HB_sAg$ gene poly(A) addition site of HBV genome was cloned into simian virus 40(SV 40) based chimeric vector pSVOB. 2.7 kb DNA fragment was derived from pHBVD 107 containing tandem copies of the HBV genome in a head-to-tail arrangement by Bgl II digestion. Construction of the vector pSVOE involved the incorporation of SV40 sequences spanning the viral origin of replication and 72 bp repeats (enhancer) into a pBR 322 derivative lacking sequences which inhibit replication in mammalian cells. Bam HI linker was inserted at the Pvu II site in the proximity of SV40 late promoter of pSVOE and named as pSVOB. To construct the recombinant plasmid pSVBS, pHBVD 107 was digested with Bgl II to isolate 2.7kb DNA fragment and the fragment was ligated into the Bam HI site of pSVOB by ligation. Preliminary result showed that the recombinant plasmid pSVBS produced $HB_sAg$ in the monkey cell producing large T antigen (COS cell).
