Temporal disappearance of weather phenomena effect is frequently observed in flight simulator when large volume of terrain data are processed. This problem was solved by employing culling scheme at static ratio in the existing scheme. However, since this approach causes the irregular rendering speed according to volume of data, it is necessary to develop a new culling scheme to maintain steady rendering speed by adjusting the culling ratio dynamically. In this paper, we propose a new culling scheme to make use of distance of the visibility to determine culling ratio depending on volume of terrain data. The experimental results show that rendering speed is preserved by the proposed scheme without affecting the visuality at rendering the scene and weather phenomena effect together.

The roles of lignin peroxidase, manganese peroxidase, and laccase were inverstigated in the biodegration of pentachlorphenol (PCP) by several which rot fungi. The disappearance of pentachlorophenol from cultures of wild type strains, P. chrysosporium, Trametes sp. and of pentachlorophenol from cultures of wild type strains, P. cheysocporium, Trametes sp. and Pleurotus ap., was observed. The activities of mangnese peroxidase and laccase was detected in Trametes sp. and pleurotus sp. cultures. However, the activities showed that PCP was degraded under ligninolytic as well as nonligninoytic condicationg that lignin peroxidase, manganese peroxidase, and laccase are not essential in the biodegradation of PCP by white rot fungi.

This study reports light and electron microscope examination of rumen fungal colonization of alkali-treated roughage feeds incubated in decron bags in the rumen of cannulated sheep for varying time intervals. Six roughages, pre-treated with ammonium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide at 4% (w/w) level were examined together with untreated control samples. Alkali pre-treatment was associated with an earlier and more pronounced fungal colonization than all control roughages. Sodium hydroxide pre-treatment was significantly more effective than ammonium hydroxide in improving the susceptibility of roughages to rumen fungal colonization and studies by SEM showed that the pre-treatment permitted greater penetration of feeds by fungi. Sodium hydroxide pre-treatment also significantly increased dry matter disappearance from feed held in Dacron bags in the rumen with all feeds except Lucerne stem. It is not known to what extent fungal activity contributed to increased breakdown of the feeds.

Rumen liquor characteristics and disappearance rate of dry matter were studied in Kedah-Kelantan cattle and swamp buffaloes fed grass of rice straw-based diet. Cobalt-EDTA and chromium mordented fibres prepared from the faecal material were used to determine the liquid and solid particles movement in both animal species fed with rice straw. Swamp buffaloes showed a more intense rumen fermentation activity than Kedah-Kelantan cattle when both species were fed straw-based diet. The buffaloes also demonstrated faster rates of grass and straw degradation in situ. The fluid outflow rate from the rumen of buffalo ($1.06{\pm}0.19l/h$) was observed to be slower than that of cattle ($1.55{\pm}0.01l/h$). No significant differences between cattle and buffaloes were observed in rumen fluid volume and passage rate of small particles from the rumen.

The results of Change of Space Organization of Nagan Eupsung are as follows. There was no castle when Nagan folk village was built and it was merely small village arranged centering around road, but as it was emphasized as a point of strategic importance, castle wall was built and the government office and military facilities were established. In the late period of the Joseon Dynasty, as central power was weakened and its importance as a strategic point was declined, private houses outside the folk village were extended to the inside of castle. The whole structure of the village was not greatly changed through the modern society, but disappearance of village components and change of its basic structure like destruction of the castle were continued not to be restored to the former condition spontaneously. It was considered that it was caused by social demographic characteristics of the folk village which was deteriorated and environmental factors that it was changed into sightseeing place.

Nutrient evaluation of sago fibre showed that the fibre has potential and could be utilized as feed for ruminants. However, as a source of nutrients, it has limitations arising from low intake, digestibility, crude protein and minerals content. The present study showed that the sago fibre is low in crude protein (3.3%) and high in neutral detergent fibre (72.5%) and acid detergent lignin (25.8%) contents. Treatment of sago fibre with urea increased the crude protein content from 3.3 to 16.7%. Both urea and sodium hydroxide treatment decreased the neutral detergent fibre level from 72.5 to 59 and 56.5%, respectively. Rumen degradation of sago fibre by nylon bag showed that both urea and sodium hydroxide treatments increased dry matter and organic matter disappearance of the fibre significantly. In vivo digestibility of 2% urea treated sago fibre was 47.5% and intake of the fibre was 1.57% of body weight of the lamb.

In mammals. axotomy of peripheral nerve leads to a complex. These events include swelling of cell body, disappearance of Nissl substance. Proximal and distal axon undergoes a variable deriable degree of traumatic degeneration and wallerian degeneration, respectively. Nerve injury may result in cell death or regeneration. Molecular changes include proliferation of Schwann cells, upregulation of neurotropism, neural cell adhesion molecules and cytokine. Also growth cone plays an essential role in axon guidance through interaction of cytoskeleton. We review cellular and molecular events after nerve injury and describe nerve regeneration and associated proteins.

Membranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava[IVC] is a rare congenital anomaly that may present clinical features of Budd-Chiari syndrome caused by chronic obstruction of hepatic drain. We have experienced a case of IVC obstruction caused by hour-glass constriction and membrane in its center. Operative correction was accomplished using profound hypothermia [20%] and total circulatory arrest of 26 minutes. This technique permitted resection of membrane with direct vision and removal of thrombus of IVC and hepatic vein. After then constricted IVC was repaired with autologous pericardial patch. Total circulatory arrest was used intermittently for good visual field. Postoperative course was smooth and postoperative angiography showed unobstructed flow through the IVC in spite of slight constriction of cavoatrial junction and nearly complete disappearance of collateral vessels.

The fine structure of HeLa cells treated with several mycotoxin-producing fungi (Aspergillus flavus ATCC 15517, Aspergillus parastiticus RIB 1037, Penicillium toxicarium RIB 4002, Penicillium cirinum SWU)238, Penicillium islandicum IFO 5235, Penicillium tadum IFO 5787 and Pencillium brunneum RIB 1172) has been examined and some details have been descried. The normal HeLa cell have numerous microvilli, large ovoid nucleus, pleomorphic mitochondria, electron-dense body, Golgi complex, mid-body and endoplasmic reticulum etc. Certain specific structural changes induced by culture filtrates of several mycotoxin-producing fungi have been noted. These alterations induced disappearance of Golgi complex, rER vacuolization, nucleolus attachment to the nuclear envelope nad appearance of certain vacuoles. There were not any changes by the treatment of culture filtrates of non-toxic fungi and only cell debris of some specimens can be observed by the injury of culture filtrates. The experimental animals treated with mycotoxin-producing fungi (Aspergillus flavus ATCC 15517, Aspergillus parasilicus RIB 1037, Penicillum citrinum SWU 238, Penicillium toxicarium RIB 4002, and Penicillium islandicum IFO 5235) were mal cells treated with culture filtrates.

Moth diversity of Mt. Duryunsan and its neighboring area, Haenam, Jeonnam, collected from 2001 to 2004 is presented. A total of 498 species were identified and a logarithmic equation to the species accumulation data provided a good fit $(R^2=0.98;$ y=218.52 LN (x)+161.88), predicting that 665 moth species are expected after ten years of collecting. Yearly species accumulation data showed that the moth faunal composition was changing by the appearance and disappearance of species: $94\~119$ species were newly collected in the following years; and $32\~90$ species were not collected in the following years. The fourth year was the most species-rich with 250 species. The need of long- term research of speciose insect taxa is briefly discussed.
