In this study unit hydrograph and infiltration capacity curves have been determined based on rainfall-runoff data for the upper Ansung stream basin. Infiltration capacity curve also has been computed based on measurements of accumulated infiltration. Accumulated infiltration curve which has close relationship with unit hydrograph has been found in adopting the following two approach methods. In the first method the mean infiltration capacity with infiltration index method and the Kostiakov accumulation infiltration curves have been computed based on hydrological data for the GongDo gauging station of the upper Ansung stream basin. In the second method the accumulation curve has been determined through directly observed infiltration data for four points in the upper basin and has been compared with the infiltration capacity curves by three observed rainfall-runoff event.

To estimate the accumulated infiltration, Horton's and Green-Ampt's equations are usually applied. Because the real infiltration is penetrated into the soil continuously, to cover the problems of the conventional equations derived from the discontinuous infiltration system, new infiltration equation is derived from the concepts of continuous infiltration system. Furthermore, infiltration tests were done to compare the results from the conventional Horton's and Green-Ampt's equations and newly derived equation. Unsaturated permeability is the function of water content ratio or saturation degree, which affects directly to the infiltration capacity and accumulated infiltration. Therefore, the variation term of unsaturated permeability is inserted into the new equation to estimate the proper infiltration capacity and accumulated infiltration. It will make the more accurate analysis for the safety of structure and the behavior of groundwater.

In this study, bioelectrical impedance analysis, which has been used to assess an alteration in intracellular fluid (ICF) of the body, was applied to detect intravenous infiltration. The experimental results are described as follows. Firstly, when infiltration occurred, the resistance gradually decreased with time and frequency i.e., the resistance decreased with increasing time, proportional to the amount of infiltrated intravenous (IV) solution. At each frequency, the resistance gradually decreased with time, indicating the IV solution (also blood) accumulated in the extracellular fluid (ECF) (including interstitial fluid). Secondly, the resistance ratio started to increase at infiltration, showing the highest value after 1.4 min of infiltration, and gradually decreased thereafter. Thirdly, the impedance ($Z_C$) of cell membrane decreased significantly (especially at 50 kHz) during infiltration and gradually decreased thereafter. Fourthly, Cole-Cole plot indicated that the positions of (R, $X_C$) shifted toward left owing to infiltration, reflecting the IV solution accumulated in the ECF. The resistance ($R_0$) at zero frequency decreased continuously over time, indicating that it is a vital impedance parameter capable of detecting early infiltration during IV infusion. Finally, the mechanism of the current flowing through the ECF, cell membrane, and ICF in the subcutaneous tissues was analyzed as a function of time before and after infiltration, using an equivalent circuit model of the human cell. In conclusion, it was confirmed that the infiltration could be detected early using these impedance parameters during the infusion of IV solution.

The purpose of this study was to determine the close relation between clinical symptom and histopathologic finding in pulp. 20 samples of pulp tissue were collected from badly decayed teeth with considerable pulp vitality. Hemogram was also made with the first drop of bleedieg after total pulp extirpation (10cases) and vital pulpotomy(10cases). Histologic specimen was made routinely with extirpated pulp and stained by H&E and P.A.S. Stains. The results under microsopic examination were as follows; 1. Hemogram obtained from dental pulp with acute inflammation revealed increase of polymorphonuclear leukocyte in number, more lymphocytes and monocytes. 2. Hemogram from pulp with chronic inflammation shown the number of lymphocyte and monocyte was remarkably increased. 3. Histologi specimen obtained from teeth with severe clinical symptome showed polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltration and the hemogram also showed polymorphonuclear leukocytes. 4. Specimen from teeth with moderate symptom showed lymphocyte infiltration and vessel dilatation underneath decayed area. Erythrocytes were massively accumulated inside of the vessel wall.

Recently, various development projects have occurred due to rapid industrialization and urbanization. Both industry and population grew rapidly which causes a corresponding rise in pollution. The accumulated pollutants are washed-off during rainy days, highly degrading the water quality of the receiving water body. This is because a lot of non point source (NPS) pollutants were accumulated on the surface during dry periods. This research focuses on the development of Eco-Bio Filter (EBF) system that treats NPS pollutants. It is constructed at Kongju National University campus. The EBF is a type of a structured infiltration system that falls under the category of Low Impact Development (LID) hydrologic design practices. The monitoring of rain events was performed. It includes the development of design, the lessons learned from the post-construction testing and the improvements in the renovation made. After a series of monitoring, the MOE will use the results to apply the design to other areas in the country.

This study was carried for the understanding of infiltration and percolation characteristics of water in agricultural land filled with rock-dust (Technosols). The experiment was performed at two sites (A, B), and soil horizons of the sites were classified with 4 layers, respectively. The soil texture of all soil horizons was analyzed with silt loam (SiL) except for the soil texture, which was loamy sand (LS), at the lowest horizon of measurement site A. The bulk densities at each horizon of two soils were mostly over $1.49g{\cdot}cm^{-3}$, which is very higher than $1.25g{\cdot}cm^{-3}$ of typical medium-textured mineral soil, except for the surface of site A measured immediately after tillage. The concentrations of $P_2O_5$ at surface of two soils s were 1962 (A), 1613 (B) $mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$, respectively. These concentrations are 3.2~6.5 times of $300{\sim}500mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$, which is the optimum concentration for crop growth. Infiltration rates at surface of the soils were 3.54 (A), 2.85 (B) cm $hr^{-1}$, but percolation rates at soil horizons under the surface were below 0.3 (A), below 0.003 (B) cm $hr^{-1}$. These results would be because the surface soils were managed by tillage and crop planting etc., but soils under surface were formed with structural problems occurred at the formation time of agricultural land accumulated with rock-dust or a compaction by farm machines.

In 2014, the city of Seoul revised the ordinance regarding water-cycle restoration in the Seoul Metropolitan areas by incorporating the 'Low Impact Development (LID)' policy. The new ordinance plan will utilize 630 mm or almost 45 to 50% of annual rainfall until 2050 by means of providing a rainwater management system consisting of infiltration, retention and vegetation. The LID is believed to be the key to achieving the target requirements, specifically in development projects. This research was performed to evaluate the stormwater runoff and pollutant reduction performance of three different LID facilities (water circulation facilities) including an infiltration inlet, bioretention swale, and permeable pavement constructed in Seoul City. Results show that among the water circulation facilities, the permeable pavement achieved the highest runoff reduction as it was able to entirely capture and infiltrate the runoff to the ground. However, in order to attain a long-term performance it is necessary to manage the accumulated sediment and trapped pollutants in the landscape areas through other water circulation techniques such as through soil erosion control. In terms of pollutant reduction capability, the infiltration inlet performed well since it was applied in highly polluted areas. The bioretention facility integrating the physico-chemical and biological mechanisms of soil, microorganisms and plants were able to also achieve a high runoff and pollutant reduction. The water circulation facilities provided not only benefits for water circulation but also various other benefits such as pollutant reduction, ecological restoration, and aesthetic functions.

This study was conducted to characterize the relationship of rainfall intensity and slope stability by using numerical analysis. The maximum precipitation rate for 10 minutes, 1 hour and 1 day was determined as 28 mm, 70 mm and 271 mm, respectively, by investigating 36 years of KMA data. Then slope infiltration analysis was performed to obtain the ground water level in the slope by using computer programming SEEP/W, and slope stability analysis was done for each time step by using program SLOPE/W. The factor of safety was minimized when the slope was saturated under each rainfall intensity; the time required for saturation was 2 hours with 10 minutes rainfall intensity of 28 mm, 7 hours with 1 hour rainfall intensity of 70 mm and 3 days with 1 day rainfall intensity of 271 mm. When accumulated rainfall was 196 mm for the 10minutes rainfall intensity of 28 mm with duration of 2 hours, the factor of safety was decreased to 1.0, while accumulated rainfall of 468 mm and 820 mm for the 1 hour and 1 day rainfall intensity, respectively, was required to reach the factor of safety, 1.0. Since the normalized rainfall intensity was 13 mm and 1.9 mm for 1 hour and 1 day maximum rainfall, respectively, those results showed that the rainfall intensity could have a more effect on the slope stability than the accumulated rainfall.

This study was carried out to determine the effects of pig slurry on growth of potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Dejima), soil chemistry properties and infiltration water quality in volcanic ash soil and non-volcanic ash soil of Jeju. Fertilization of liquid pig manure was based on nitrogen. In volcanic ash soil and non-volcanic ash soil, there was no difference in the height and diameter of stems in chemical fertilizer and liquid pig manure application treatments. Also yields of potatoes were no significantly difference in chemical fertilizer and liquid pig manure application treatments. pH in all soil was increased by application of liquid pig manure compared to the chemical fertilizer plot. Contents of exchangeable K in all soil were accumulated excessively by fertilization of pig manure 100% compared to the chemical fertilizer 100%. But there was no difference between the chemical fertilizer 50%+liquid pig manure 50% and chemical fertilizer 100%. No difference between the chemical fertilizer and liquid pig manure was observed in available phosphate, exchangeable Ca and Mg. $NO_3$-N concentration of infiltration water sample collected at 70cm of soil depth was lower non-fertilizer than chemical fertilizer and liquid pig manure application treatments. In volcanic ash soil, the $NO_3$-N concentration of infiltration water was decreased from early, except liquid manure 100%. In non volcanic ash soil, the $NO_3$-N concentration of infiltration water increased until October 8, but then was reduced. In all soils, $NO_3$-N concentration of infiltration water was higher in the liquid manure 100% than those in the chemical fertilizer 100% and chemical fertilizer 50%+liquid pig manure 50%, but there were no differences. In conclusion, the growth of potato, fertilization of soil and $NO_3$-N content of infiltration water were not different between chemical 50%+liquid pig manure 50% and chemical 100% plot. So, liquid pig manure could be substituted for some amount of chemical fertilizer.

Effects of ultraviolet stress and elicitors, cellulase and jasmonic acid (JA), for the production of capsidiol, sesquiterpenoid phytoalexin, in seedlings and suspension cultures of pepper (Capsicum annum L. cv, Soobicho) were examined. Extracellular capsidiol in the medium of suspension cultures was absent from control cells, but accumulated in the elicitor treated cells with 0.05 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL of cellulase or 0.1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL JA. Elicited cells gradually decreased their viability and eventually died within 48 hours of elicitor treatment by the toxicity of capsidiol accumulated in the culture medium. Capsidiol production in the leaves of pepper seedlings was markedly increased by the treatment of ultraviolet stress and reached maximum level at 48 hours of irradiation. Infiltration of elicitors, 0.05 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL cellulase or 1.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL JA, to the surface of leaf or fruit, stimulated the elicitation of the cells which resulted in the production of capsidiol and expansion of pathogene-like lesion around the elicitor treated region.
