LNG 수요증가에 따라 저장설비의 규모가 커지고 있고 그 수 또한 증가되고 있어, 저장설비의 안전 건설과 안전 운전이 실시되고 있는가를 체계적으로 검토할 수 있는 위험성 평가 모델이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구는 LNG 저장설비의 위험성을 체계적으로 평가하여 그 결과를 객관적으로 활용할 수 있는 위험성평가 모델을 제시하였다. 이를 위하여 다양한 연구 및 국내외 규격을 조사하고 검토하였을 뿐만 아니라 실제 사례연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과 부지선정, 배치도 선정, 설계/건설 및 운전의 4개 단계로 구분한 위험성평가 모델을 제시하였다. 이 모델은 사고피해규모를 예측하기 위해 필요한 대기조건과 합리적인 영향거리 판단기준을 제시하고 있으며, 이러한 사고 피해규모와 직접 연계된 사고의 발생가능성을 체계적으로 산출할 수 있는 구조로 제안되었다. 따라서 향후 LNG 저장설비를 새로 건설하고자 할 경우, LNG 저장설비 부지 및 배치도를 결정할 때 본 모델을 적용하여, 보다 근원적인 안전을 확보할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Temporal (seasonal) and spatial distributions and variations of various physico-chemical factors (salinity, temperature, pH, DO, COD, SPM, POC, silicate, DIP, DIN) in surface and bottom waters were studied in the coastal environment with typical macro-tidal range and monsoonal weather condition, Gyeonggi Bay, west coast of Korea. Spacial distribution patterns of these factors were generally similar to each other, and appeared to be inversely related to the distribution pattern of salinity, suggesting that water quality of the study area was primarily controlled by the physical mixing process of Han-River freshwater with nearby coastal seawater. During flooding season, silicate- and nitrogen-rich Han River water directly flowed into offshore as far as $20\sim30\;km$ from the river mouth, probably causing serious environmental problems such as eutrophication and unusual and/or noxious algal bloom, etc. Except the surface water during summer flooding season, high concentrations of nutrients appeared generally in dry season, whereas low values in spring, possibly because of the occurrence of spring phytoplankton bloom. On the other hand, nutrient flux through the estuary seems to be primarily depending on river discharge, sewage discharge and agricultural activities, especially during the rainy season. Also, nutrients in this coastal waters are considered to be supplied from the sediments of tidal-flats, which developed extensively around the Han-River mouth, especially during fall and winter of dry and low discharge seasons, possibly due to the stirring of tidal flat sediments with highly enriched pore-water nutrients by storm. And also, COD and DIN concentrations in the study area consistently increased during the last 20 years, probably because of agricultural activities and increasing discharge of industrial and domestic wastes.

농업은 기상 의존도가 매우 높은 산업분야로서 지구온난화는 농업의 생산성, 생산여건, 그리고 품질 및 재배적지 등에 미칠 영향이 매우 클 것이 예상된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지리정보시스템을 도입하여 지구 온난화에 따른 국내 과수작물 재배지의 입지분석을 기후변화에 따라 우리나라에 확대도입이 가능한 레몬, 무화과, 키위, 오렌지, 석류, 한라봉을 중심으로 시행하였다. 지리정보시스템의 기술적 측면에서 기온에 대한 Interpolate 기능과 경사도에 대한 surface analysis 기능, 그리고 raster Calculator를 이용하였다. 기온의 상승에 따라 각 과수들은 재배지역이 현재는 제주도와 남부지역에 집중되어 있으나, 평균기온이나 최저기온이 3도, 4.5도 상승함에 따라 두 가지의 형태 즉, 중부지역으로 확산되거나 띠모양으로 변화하는 모습을 보이고 있다. 이러한 연구결과를 통해서 우리는 지구온난화라는 위기를 기회로 활용하고 더 나아가 농촌의 농가 소득향상과 국민에게 다양한 먹을거리를 제공하는 차원에서 기후 자원을 활용할 수 있는 정부의 정책적 노력과 농민들의 합리적인 대응이 시급하게 필요함을 주장하지 않을 수 없다.

A study on field bioassay test using four species of commercially important shellfish was carried out to assess the effect of pollutants and determine the extent of marine environmental pollution of the Masan Bay from 9 to 15 August 1978. Water quality analysis and planktological examination of sea water were made during the experiment and the examination gave the following results. The water temperature was so high at 31.7$^{\circ}C$ in maximum and rather subject to change on weather condition of the land than on the effect of the water mass from outer bay. The range of DO,COD and SS at the stations were 0.3-7.08cc/l, 0.07-3.31ppm and 5.5-117ppm, respectively with the high values of COD and SS at the stations 7 and 1. The concentrations of the dissolved inorganic nitrogen in sea water, NH$\sub$4/-N, NO$\sub$2/-N, NO$\sub$3/-N, and PO$\sub$4/-P were 18.90-99.80, 2.48- 19.60, 13.00-39.00 and 1.04-14.0$\mu\textrm{g}$ at/l, respectively with decrease of their values in the outer part of the Bay. The high values mentioned above were caused by the sewage and industrial activities. The effects of organic waste are increased oxygen demand, nutrient concentration, turbidity and a higher input of pathogens, leading to structural changes in the marine ecosystems and to a considerable hazard to public health. The percentage composition of phytoplankton standing crop between diatom and dinoflagellate was characterized by making a difference between the two groups in respect of location: a decrease of diatom and a increase of dinoflagellate in numerical abundance toward inner part from outer part of the bay. Namely phytoplankton organisms were composed of 80% of diatom and 20% of dinoflagellate in outer bay, on the contrary, only 4% of diatom and 96% of dinoflagellate occupied by 94% of prorocentrum micans known as tolerant species to polluted reaas in the inner bay. On the occurrence and composition of zooplankton, there are two significant communities in the bay:one is characterized by the predominance of Oithona nana and the other by Favella sp They were composed of a range from 84% to 90% of the total organisms and monotonously constituted of themselves only at most inner station 3 even small numbers. From the results mentioned above, Oithona nana, Favella and prorocentrum micans recommed themselves as valuable indicators for judging the extent of the marine pollution.During the period of the biossays Mytilus edulis showed the highest mortality and Tapes japonica the lowest one between the four test species. The highest death rate by stations was found at most inner stations 3'and 4near Masan Free Export Zone with the most sensitive response and the lowest one occured at outer station 13 where no death specimen of oyster and arkshell was found during the whole test period.As for mussel,85 percent death rate appeared after 72 hours and 100percent rate after 120hours at station 4. It was found that the significant high mortality of the test shellfish mentioned above was caused by severe pollution with mainly organic pollutants from domestic sewage and industrial wastes from the results of too much higher concentrations of dissolved inorganic nitrogen especially ammonia-N,COD,SS and lack of dissolved oxygen,and furthermore occurrence and abundance composition of Prorcentrum,Favella and Oithona nana by stations, valuable indicator species of coastal pollution by orgnic and boilogical pollutants.
