This study attempted to derive an equation for calculating the damage impact distance using CARIS so that local governments can quickly determine evacuation and notification of residents in the event of an ammonia-release accident. Ammonia is an accident-causing substance and one of 16 substances to prepare for resident evacuation. It is the most frequently occurring chemical with 58 chemical accidents from 2014~2019. The study derives an equation for calculating the damage impact distance according to the exposure time of ammonia based on AEGL, an acute exposure standard applicable to the general population, which is includes vulnerable groups such as infants, children and the elderly and designated by the EPA. The calculation formulas for each concentration and exposure time to classify the hazardous area according to AEGL-3 and the semi-dangerous area according to AEGL-2 were derived. A comparison of the relative standard deviation between the damage impact distance values of CARIS revealed that is was in the range of 0~2%. Local governments should consider the actual accident situation and apply the appropriate damage-affected distance calculation formula derived from the study to evacuate residents near the origin of the accident or use for protective measures such as indoor evacuation notification.

This study was carried out to estimate the stand form factor that is necessary to estimate stand volume by STRAND method among plotless sampling methods. The data measured for this study were based on the 380 sample plots from Larix leptolepis and 358 sample plots from Pinus koraiensis which were distributed in the region of Kyeongi, Kangweon, Chungbuk, Chungnam, Chun-buk and Kyeongbuk. 1. Stand form factor was highly correlated with in the following order, stand form height, stand average height, average diameter, stand age, distance of stem, and basal area height. 2. The best fitted equation of stand form factor of above two tree species were presented in table 3. 3. Stand form factor tables using estimated equations on the table 3 were prepared and presented in table 4, 5(Larix leptolepis), 6, 7(Pinus karaiensis). 4. The relatioinships between estimated value and actual value were Y=bx, where b approached nearly 1.0, and there were not any significant differences between them. 5. The percentages of estimated error on stand form factor table were ranged from 2.39% to 4.15% in Larix leptolepis and from 1.73% to 2.50% in Pinus koraiensis. Therefore, the stand form factor could be exactly estimated by use of these tables.

The major purpose of this study was to analyze the observance of attributes influencing on park visitors' experiences. The Importance-Performance technique has been commonly used to evaluate the importance of various recreation programs and management. In this study, the Importance-Performance technique was adopted to present a new approach called Observance-Influence Analysis. During the summer of 1996, 550 Worak-san National Park visitors were surveyed. The results of this study indicated that physical and biological attributes such as clear water, clean air, and beautiful valley, etc. were highly observed by visitors and those also highly influenced on visitors' experiences. Based on the respondents' rating to the attributes, action grid was formulated to suggest management actions. As mentioned before, attributes such as clear water, clean air, and beautiful valley were recognized as attributes needed concentrate efforts. Attributes related to forests such as diverse plants and trees, well maintained forests, etc. were also suggested as potential concerned attributes. However attributes related to services did not influenced highly on the visitors' experiences.

Responses of Pospam-injected chestnut and pine trees to drill wound were examined. Pospam was injected into the stem by just filling up the drill wound in September 10, 1993. The diameter of the injection wound were 0.5 and 1cm. DBH of chestnut trees and pine trees injected were 10, 15, 20 and 10, 20, 30cm, respectively. The results of tree response were examined in June, 1994. None of them showed any symptom of decay by the time. However, sapwood under the bark was remarkably discolored. The discoloration was more severe in 1cm-injection wound than in 0.5cm one. The severity of discoloration was not differed between species and among DBH applied. The sapwood split was longer in 1cm-injection wounded trees than in 0.5cm trees and longer in chestnut trees than in pine trees. From the split, callus grew out and almost closed the splits. In the trunk injection tested, the damage was mare severe in 1cm injection wound of chestnut trees than in any other combination.

7 populations of rare endemic Berchemia berchemiaefolia were analysed using multivariate analysis for 9 characteristics of leaf morphology. The aim of this study was to examine geographic variation to support a genetic resource conservation plan of B. berchemiaefolia in Korea. In the morphological characters, nine characters of leaf were 10.25 cm (blade length), 4.10 cm (maximum width), 2.52 (blade length/maximum width), 3.22 cm (upper 1/3 width), 3.42 cm (lower 1/3 width), 0.95 (upper 1/3 width/lower 1/3 width), 1.24 cm (petiole length), 8.91 (blade length/petiole length), 8.16ea (vein number), respectively. Nested anova showed that were statistically significant differences among populations as well as among individuals within populations in all 9 quantitative characters. In 7 of 9 characters, variance components among individuals within populations were higher than those among populations. Cluster analysis using complete linkage method showed two groups (Chungbuk and Gyeongbuk districts) to Euclidean distance 1.2. Among principal components, primary 3 principal components appeared to be major variables because of the loading contribution of 87.3%. The first contribution was blade length, blade length/maximum width and blade length/petiole length; the second one was maximum width, upper 1/3 width and lower 1/3 width; the third one was petiole length, respectively.

This study has intended to evaluate the forest recreation functions to seek methods to designate the recreational areas inside a recreation forest. This study has Mt. Chung-ok in Korea as a study area to which Quantification method II as a valuation measure was applied. This study also has chosen a degree of recreational utility as an external criterion and six factors including Forest type, Forest age, Slope, Riparian area, Road, and Facility for the 173 stands in this area. As a result, absolute discriminated success rate was obtained, so that the first and second estimated correlation ratios were 82% and 74%, respectively. Road and Slope had great influences on the potential power of recreational functions. In the category, recreational function was more influenced by the existence of road and the lower degree of slope. Also, this study has drawn an evaluation map, which displayed the potential power of recreational functions by classifying three discrimination points such as H(High), M(Medium), and L(Low) through calculating the degree of recreational utility of the recreation forest for the stands by applying an estimation formula of recreational function in the stands. This study seems to be worthwhile in terms of actual, experimental, and intuitive interpretation for the degree of recreational utility calculated by using Quantification method theory.

This study evaluated the physicochemical properties of brown rice (BR) and germinated brown rice (GBR) in Korea. The protein content of BR was significantly higher than that of GBR. The amylose content of BR and GBR ranged from 17.42 to 18.48% and from 17.50 to 19.69%, respectively. The GBR contained higher ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content than that of BR. In an RVA examination, pasting temperatures of BR and GBR were $67.97{\sim}68.03^{\circ}C$. Texture analysis test showed that GBR Yeonghojinmi had the lowest hardness and highest stickiness. In conclusion, this study showed that compared to BR, GBR has a much softer texture, improved eating quality and increased GABA content.

Although exogenous protease enzymes have been used in poultry diets quite extensively, this has not been the case for pig diets. In general, due to their better gut fermentative capacity and longer transit time, pigs have greater capacity to digest dietary proteins than poultry. However, in early-weaned piglets, the stress brought about by weaning adversely affects the digestion of dietary proteins. Therefore, a study was conducted to determine the effects of a commercial protease enzyme in weanling pigs. Indices of growth, nutrient digestibility, blood profiles, fecal microflora, fecal gas emission and fecal scores were measured during the study. A total of 50 weanling pigs ($6.42{\pm}0.12kg$) at 28 d of age were randomly assigned to receive 1 of 2 dietary treatments: i) control diet (corn-soy based) with no supplemental protease (CON), and ii) control diet+200 g/ton protease (PROT) for 42 d. A completely randomized design consisting of 2 treatments, 5 replicates, and 5 pigs in each replicate was used. Growth performance in terms of body weight ($27.04{\pm}0.38kg$ vs $25.75{\pm}0.39kg$; p<0.05) and average daily gain ($491{\pm}7.40g$ vs $460{\pm}7.46g$; p<0.05) in PROT fed pigs were increased significantly, but gain per feed ($0.700{\pm}0.01$ vs $0.678{\pm}0.01$; p>0.05) was similar between treatments at d 42. Relative to CON pigs, PROT fed pigs had increased (p<0.05) apparent total tract digestibility ($84.66%{\pm}0.65%$ vs $81.21%{\pm}1.13%$ dry matter and $84.02%{\pm}0.52%$ vs $80.47%{\pm}1.22%$ nitrogen) and decreased (p<0.05) $NH_3$ emission ($2.0{\pm}0.16ppm$ vs $1.2{\pm}0.12ppm$) in the feces at d 42. Except for a decreased (p<0.05) in blood creatinine level, no differences were observed in red blood cell, white blood cell, lymphocyte, urea nitrogen, and IgG concentrations between treatments. Fecal score and fecal microflora (Lactobacillus and E. coli) were also similar between CON and PROT groups. Overall, the supplementation of protease enzyme in weanling pigs resulted in improved growth rate and nutrient digestibility. Exogenous protease enzyme reduced fecal $NH_3$ emission, thus, potentially serving as a tool in lowering noxious gas contribution of livestock production in the environment.

The present paper suggests the original form of the bell pavilion for the King Song-Dok bell which is one of the precious national treasure of Korea. In order to this, many literatures were reviewed including both historical and acoustical references. As the results, the model of the bell pavilion for the King Song-Dok bell is suggested as follows considering acoustical characteristics of the King Song-Dok bell and the traditional Korean bells ; 1) The bell pavilion has the rumbling puddle beneath the bell on the ground floor for resonance of sound 2) Many lumbers are used for columns and beams rather than boards since natural frequencies of the bell are 64 Hz and 168 Hz so that the sound absorption of the low frequency sound may not be occurred. 3) Only some boards may be used for the area between upper and middle molding of lintel in order to prevent of direct sunlight and sea breeze since this type of structure were used for bell pavilion of the same age. 4) Square form with the odd number of 3 or 5 Kans is adopted for bell pavilion considering the weight and the size of the bell which had been used traditionally 5) Finally, half-hipped structure is used for the roof of the bell pavilion which was the predominant form of the age.

In this paper, an rice intake management system based on ubiquitous computing technology is introduced for rice processing complex (RPC). This system plays an important role in the quality management for rough rices in that the system provides timely and useful information of rice cultivation. The intake management system is developed by utilizing widespread ubiquitous technologies, such as smartphones, GIS and LBS, for the purpose of controling the harvest time and monitoring the quality of paddy. The information for rice production, cultivation and quality management is transmitted and stored in a centralized database via mobile networks, On the basis of these information, the harvest schedule is determined and notified to farmers though smart devices. Hence, the proposed system can help to establish trust among farmers, operators and consumers by providing systematic information based on ubiquitous computing technology.
