The continuous exploration in deep seawater from Korea makes us lead the discovery of ancient Chlorophyta, Palmophyllum, in the Korean coast. The phylogenetic analyses of 18S rRNA and rbcL genes demonstrate that our specimens are Palmophyllum crassum (Naccari) Rabenhorst, recorded in Japan and clearly distinguished from P. umbracola from New Zealand and California, USA. Palmophyllum crassum grows in the subtidal region, 8-30 m deep, and has a crustose thallus which is closely adherent to substrates such as non-geniculate crustose coralline algae, sponge, shells, or rocks. P. crassum is composed of numerous spherical cells embedded in the gelatinous matrix. The discovery of this ancient green seaweed implies that the Korean coast is one of the hotspots of algal species diversity and has the suitable marine environment for algal speciation. We suggest the grounds to conserve the Korean coast environmentally as the biodiversity center of marine species by studying the phylogeny of seaweeds.

Habitative microorganisms were isolated from the floated air and surface of record materials of library with ancient archives. The major ecological fungi from them were isolated and identified as Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae, Neurospora sitophile, Mucor mucedo, Mucor rouxii, Penicilliun notatum, Rhizopus delema, Rhizopus nigricans, Thamnidium elegans, and Tricoderma viridae. When the cellulase activity of fungi isolated from ancient archives and documents was analyzed, Mucor rouxii and Penicilliun notatum showed the highest avicelase and filter paper activity, to 18.089 and 2.819 units, respectively, showing destructive ability of old archives and documents. Whereas, Mucor mucedo revealed the highest CMCase activity of exoglucanase to 7.044 units.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the dynamic characteristics of ancient stone bridges in Korea and to find the factors influencing their natural frequencies. For this end, on-site free vibration tests were performed for 18 stone arch bridges and one ancient ice storage composed of 4 arches. Test results revealed that the vertical fundamental frequencies were in the range of 10Hz to 45Hz. The damping ratios estimated from the records of free vibration tests showed a wide variety of values, that is, from 0.02 to 0.134. It has been known that the natural frequencies of stone arch bridges are mainly governed by their arch spans. Test results reveal that the presence of spandrel walls and the use of mortar for joints are also important factors influencing the natural frequencies of stone arch bridges.
