In this study, real time measurements of particle number size distribution in urban Gwangju, coastal Taean, and industrial Yeosu in Korea were conducted in 2008 to understand the occurrence of ultrafine particle (UFP) (<100 nm) events, the variation of its concentration among different sampling sites, and UFP formation pathways. Also, to investigate seasonal and long-term variation of the UFP number concentration, data were collected for the period of 5 years (2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, and 2012) in urban Gwangju. Photochemical and combustion events were found to be responsible for the formation of UFP in the urban Gwangju site, whereas only photochemical event led to the formation of UFP in the coastal Taean site. The highest UFP concentration was found in industrial Yeosu (the average UFP number fractions were 79, 59 and 58% in Yeosu, Gwangju, and Taean, respectively), suggesting that high amount of gas pollutants (e.g., $NO_2$, $SO_2$, and volatile organic carbon (VOC)) emitted from industries and their photochemical reaction contributed for the elevated UFP concentration in the industrial Yeosu site. The UFP fraction also showed a seasonal variation with the peak value in spring (61.5, 54.5, 50.5, and 40.7% in spring, fall, summer, and winter, respectively) at urban Gwangju. Annual average UFP number concentrations in urban Gwangju were $5.53{\times}10^3\;cm^{-3}$, $4.68{\times}10^3\;cm^{-3}$, $5.32{\times}10^3\;cm^{-3}$, $3.99{\times}10^3\;cm^{-3}$, and $2.16{\times}10^3\;cm^{-3}$ in the year 2007, 2008, 2010, 2011, and 2012, respectively. Comparison of the annual average UFP number concentration with urban sites in other countries showed that the UFP concentrations of the Korean sites were lower than those in other urban cities, probably due to lower source strength in the current site. TEM/EDS analysis for the size-selected UFPs showed that the UFPs were classified into various types having different chemical species. Carbonaceous particles were observed in both combustion (soot and organics) and photochemical events (sulfate and organics). In the photochemical event, an internal mixture of organic species and ammonium sulfate/bisulfate was identified. Also, internal mixtures of aged Na-rich and organic species, aged Ca-rich particles, and doughnut shaped K-containing particles with elemental composition of a strong C with minor O, S, and K-likely to be originated from biomass burning nearby agricultural area, were observed. In addition, fly ash particles were also observed in the combustion event, not in the photochemical event.

본 연구에서는 여러 가지 점토광물의 흡착에 의한 $Al^{3+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Mn^{2+}$, $Pb^{2+}$ 및 $Zn^{2+}$와 같은 중금속 제거특성을 고찰하였다. 흡착제로는 원료 벤토나이트와 본 연구과정에서 제조한 칼슘 및 나트륨형 벤토나이트, 몬모릴로나이트계 광물인 KSF와 K10을 사용하였다. 이들 다섯 가지 점토광물의 조성은 XRF를 이용하여 분석하였으며 중금속의 농도는 ICP를 이용하여 측정하였다. 또한 각 점토광물의 양이온교환능력과 전하량을 측정하여 비교하였다. 실험결과, 흡착평형은 약 $1{\sim}2$시간 후에 도달하였다. $Na^+$ 치환형 벤토나이트는 $Mn^{2+}$을 제외한 모든 중금속에 대하여 최고 98% 이상의 높은 흡착효율을 나타내었으며 $Mn^{2+}$에 대해서는 최고 66%의 흡착효율을 보였다. KSF는 pH가 증가함에 따라 $Al^{3+}$이 용출되는 것으로 나타났지만 $Pb^{2+}$과 $Zn^{2+}$은 산성을 띠고 있는 KSF에 의하여 각각 최고 88%와 59%의 흡착효율을 나타냄으로써 수소이온농도에 크게 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 전반적으로 중금속의 초기 농도가 증가함에 따라 흡착효율은 감소하고 흡착능(흡착용량)은 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. $Na^+$ 치환형 벤토나이트의 중금속 흡착능은 농도에 따라 $1.3{\sim}19$ mg/g 정도의 값을 나타내었다. 흡착제 1 g당 각 중금속들의 흡착량은 $Na^+$ 치환형 벤토나이트$\gg$원료 벤토나이트$\approx$K10>$Ca^{2+}$ 치환형 벤토나이트$\gg$KSF의 순서로 나타났다. 프런들리히 흡착등온선으로부터 K와 1/n값을 계산한 결과, $Na^+$ 치환형 벤토나이트의 K값이 모든 중금속에 대하여 가장 크게 나타났으며 1/n은 $0.2{\sim}0.39$ 범위로 나타나 중금속 흡착에 가장 적합한 점토광물임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 흡착능은 Al>Cu>Pb>Zn>Mn 순으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this research is to analyze of biotope structure focused on the evaluation for the species and biotope preservation in the case of Soosung District in Daegu metropolitan city. We analyzed the structure of urban biotope, and investigated the disposition of space and several characteristics through the material collection relating to the existing urban ecological material and the field investigation. The results of this study were as follows; 1) The result of biotope type classification was divided into 17 biotope type groups and 90 biotope types belonging to them. 2) The biotope type of mixed forest(QD) has the highest rate in occupation area, 1.764ha and the biotope type of cultivation areas by vinyle-hothouse(KC) has the lowest rate, 0.3ha. 3) In the result of the first evaluation for the species and biotope preservation, biotope types such as QB, QI, PA, PB, NB and NC etc. possess great value. Particulary, these biotope types come from forest areas and transition zone. They have not appeared in the inner of cities. 4) The biotope types such as CA, NA, NB, ND and PB are proved to possess high value in the result of rarity and riskiness evaluation. There appear EE, MA, NB, QC and QD in IV grade which is impossible to have them regenerative. They usually have appeared in forest areas. 5) There emerge 3a biotope type that has the highest value in the result of the second evaluation such as CC, EE, KF, LD, MB, NC, PB, QB and QI etc. Most of them were presented into the large area of site size and were distributed in the forest areas intensively. So, it is certain that the space for the species and biotope preservation connected with residential district is scarce. 6) The detailed biotope plan must be made out specially continuously. It is about biotope spaces that are especially important for the species and biotope preservation from the result of this research. Also, the study on the detailed index settlement of the urban landscape plan based on the biotope map must be continued.

The purpose of this study was to understand the unique and complicated feature of urban stream receiving various inflows. The Yangjae stream, the second tier of the Han River, runs through the southern parts of Seoul, Korea and its middle part flows on the boundary of Seoul where land use is actively changing. Stream flow was greatly influenced by rainfall. Other than rainfall events, effluent discharge from wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) comprised 51 % of stream flux. As a result, majority ions water chemistry was changed at the receiving zone of the discharged effluent (Zone A). Its contribution increased to 69.9 % at the second sampling period with low stream flow. In the middle zone, inflows from the northern area, recently developed to a residential district showed low $NO_3-N$ and high $HCO_3$, Ca, $SO_4$, and $SiO_2$ indicating the effects of groundwater and concrete. One inflow (T-8), with extremely high Na and Cl, median $SiO_2$, was assessed to have anthropogenic influence, however its contribution to main stream was under 1 %. Road construction near Y-13 also affected water chemistry leading to the highest Na and Cl concentration. These hydro chemical changes can be critically used to evaluate the changes in water budget and fate of chemicals in a peri-urban watershed occasioned by human activities on the Yangjae.

광주광역시에 분포하는 지하수의 수질을 인위적인 오염과 물-암석 반응에 의한 화학적 풍화의 결과로 구분하기 위하여, 토지이용현황, 지형 및 지질을 참고하여 본 역을 4개의 Group으로 구분하였다. Group I은 개발제한구역, Group II는 완충녹지, Group III는 기존시가지, Group IV은 공단지역을 포함한다. 연구지역의 본 역의 지질은 주로 흑운모화강암과 화강편마암으로 이루어져 있으며 지하수 중 주 양이온 함량은 장석류, 운모류, 탄산염광물의 지화학적 거동에 의해 결정된다. Cl$^{-}$와 NO$_3$$^{-}$은 인위적인 오염원에 의해 공급되며 Group H에서 가장 높게 나타난다. Piper diagram에 의하면 Group III은 CaSO$_4$-CaCl$_2$형에 우세하게 점시되고 나머지는 대부분 Ca(HCO$_3$)$_2$형으로 나타난다. WATEQF를 이용하여 계산한 활동도와 광물의 포화지수에 의하면 광물들 대부분이 불포화 상태이며 상안정다이아그램에 의하면 모두 캐올리나이트 안정 영역에 점시된다. 요인분석 결과에 의하면 3개의 요인으로 추출 및 계산된다 HCO$_3$$^{-}$, $Ca^{2+}$, SO$_4$$^{2-}$ , $Mg^{2+}$, $Na^{+}$의 규제를 받는 요인 1은 탄산염 광물, 운모, 사장석의 용해로 설명되고, Cl$^{-}$, NO$_3$$^{-}$의 규제를 받는 요인 2는 생활하수의 유입을 설명한다. Mn, Fe, Zn의 규제를 받는 요인 3은 공장폐수의 영향으로 추측된다. 요인 1은 Group I과 Group II에서 우세하므로 화학적 풍화의 영향을 받으며, Group III에서 높은 점수를 보이는 요인 2는 인위적인 오염원의 가능성을 지시한다.

Groundwater recharge is defined in an addition of water to groundwater reservoir. Recently, many people have been moving to the Edwards aquifer and urban and agricultural industry have been expending. Hydrologists and water planning managers concern about insufficient groundwater amounts and irrigation water price variability. In this paper, I focus on estimates of local recharge volumes and quantify preferential flow through GIS technique. Chloride Mass Balance (CMB) and hydrochemical components have been widely applied to recharge rate and evaluate flow paths. The CMB method is based on relationship between wet-dry chloride deposition data and Rainfall data. These data are manipulated using ArcGIS. Especially, hydrochemical concentration distribution is good index for groundwater residence times or flow paths such as $[Mg^{2+}]/[Ca^{2+}],[Cl]$ and log$([Ca^{2+}]+[Mg^{2+}])/[Na^+]$. Well information such as hydrological-hydrochemical data are imported into ArcGIS and manipulated by interpolation techniques. For each potentiometric surface and water quality, point data are converted to spatial data through each Kriging and Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) techniques.

연결보는 지진하중에 효과적으로 저항하기 위하여 적절한 강도, 강성, 변형능력을 지녀야 한다. 특히 스팬-춤 비가 2.0 이하인 대각선다발철근을 갖는 특수전단벽 연결보는 일반 연결보보다 더 높은 강도, 강성, 연성능력을 갖게 되나 대각선다발철근 상세는 시공에 큰 어려움이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제에 대한 해결방안의 하나로서 대각선다발철근 상세를 대체하기 위한 대안상세들이 실험적으로 연구되었다. 실험결과, 앵글형태로 보강된 SA실험체가 대각방향 보강근을 완전히 제거한 SB시리즈의 실험체와 비교하여 더 안정된 거동을 보였으며, 기존의 대각선다발철근상세를 갖는 CA실험체와 비교하여 유사한 강도, 강성, 에너지소산능력과 변형능력(drift)을 나타내었다.

Turfgrass species were evaluated for their rooting and foliar characteristics, and their interaction with the soil. The rooting system was divided into three compartments, one above another, such that the top and bottom compartments of the root system could be supplied with a nutrient deprived solution. Exposure of parts of the roots to nitrate deprivation caused a localised retardation of root initiation and extension, compared with zones receiving the full supply of nutrients. This resulted in considerable modification to root form, coupled with a significant depression in foliar growth. The extension of roots was the least affected by the deprivation of potassium. Phosphate and calcium deprivations gave rise to similar responses in root and foliar formation. Results from this study showed that external concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and calcium are required by the root system in varying amounts for optimal growth of roots. Turfgrass coverage and turf quality ratings further reinforced these findings. No significant difference was observed between the different grasses examined here. All three species responded similarly to the deprivation of the various nutrients. Results from this study confirmed that targeted fertilization programs are beneficial and can help reduce cost, chemical usage and prevent leachate and contamination.

In automobile chassis system, several environmental factors weaken durability of automobile's components. The environmental factors are temperature, humidity, intensity of radiation and dust particle inflow. Especially, dust particle inflow leads to increase in friction and wear of automobile's components. The wear of automobile's component leads to increase in noise and exerts a bad influence on life of components. In this study, dust particles were investigated for study on the influence of dust particle inflow. Dust particles are collected on urban area, rural area and highway in China. The size of dust particle is analyzed using the image plus program, and the element of dust particle is analyzed using the SEM and EDX. The elements of dust particle are $SiO_2$ and $Al_{2}O_{3}$. The other elements(Na, Ca, Cl etc..) are detected on urban area and highway.
