이 연구는 일본의 카나가와현 츠꾸이에 위치하고 있는 선상지에서 지하수 수질을 조절하는 요인들을 평가하기 위해 질산성 질소에 의해 오염된 지하수를 수문지구화학적으로 조사하였다. 2003년 월별 지하수의 수위는 강우에 의해 크게 증감하였지만, 지하수 내의 질산성 질소 농도는 약간의 변화만을 보여주었다. 뿐만아니라 년중 대부분 지하수 수질 기준의 최고 오염 수준 $10mgL^{-1}$을 초과하였다. 2003년 1년간 지하수의 재충전량은 1,730mm(지하수 수위의 일 증가의 년간 총합인 20,056mm와 일별 감소량의 년간 총합인 18,326mm의 차이)로 나타났다. 그러나 지하수 수위의 일별 증가량의 년간 총합(20,056mm)은 년간 강우량보다 약 10배 이상 높았다. 더욱이 일별 감소량의 년간 총합(18,326mm)은 많은 양의 지하수가 질산성 질소 오염과 함께 방출되었음을 보여주었다. 상당히 높은 질산성 질소를 보유한 강우가 있은 후, 선상지를 통해 많은 양의 지하수 유출입이 관찰되었다. 결과적으로, 산림지대를 포함한 이 선상지에서는 '질소 과잉' 또는 '질소 포화' 라고 하는 상태를 반영하고 있다. 많은 양의 지하수 방출은 지표수에서 질산성 질소의 오염과 같은 환경문제를 야기할 수 있으며, 본 연구를 통해 수문지구화학적 자료가 수질관리에 유용하길 기대한다.

본 연구에서는 다슬기 중의 자연균총의 정량적 오염도 분석과 해감 제거 공정(지하수, 상수)에 따른 저감화 효과를 조사하였다. 다슬기 중의 일반세균, 대장균군과 대장균, 진균 및 황색포도상구균의 정량적 검출을 위해 표준평판법을 사용하여 각각 plate count agar (PCA), potato dextrose agar (PDA), 대장균군/대장균용 3M Petrifilm 및 황색포도상구균용 3M Petrifilm에 도말하여 집락을 계수하였다. 지하수와 상수 처리에 따른 이들 균의 저감화 정도 역시 동일한 방법으로 수행되었다. 다슬기 원료 중의 미생물 오염도 분석시, 일반세균, 대장균군 및 진균은 각각 6.40, 2.70 및 $6.79{\log}_{10}CFU/g$로 조사되었다. 대장균과 황색포도상구균은 검출되지 않았다 (검출 한계: < $1{\log}_{10}CFU/g$). 그러나, 지하수로 해감 제거한 다슬기의 경우, 분석된 모든 미생물의 정량적 오염도가 원료 다슬기에 비해 높게 검출되었다. 특히 원료 다슬기에서 불검출이었던 대장균도 $2.46{\log}_{10}CFU/g$ 검출되었다. 상수로 해감 제거한 다슬기의 일반세균은 유의적으로 저감화 되지 않았으며(p<0.05), 대장균군은 유의적으로 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다(p>0.05). 진균만이 약간의 저감화(0.2 log 이하)를 유의적으로 보였다(p>0.05). 본 연구결과 지하수와 상수를 이용해서 해감 제거하는 공정만으로는 다슬기의 미생물학적 안전성을 확보하기 곤란한 것으로 판단된다.

Time-temperature integrators (TTIs) are simple and cost-efficient tools which may be used to predict food quality. Enzymatic TTIs are devised to indicate food quality in the form of color alterations from green to red, based on the cumulative impacts of temperature and time period on the enzymatic reactions. In this study, the quality of ground beef patties was investigated for the parameters of pH levels, color, VBN, water holding capacity, and total microbial counts, depending on various storage temperatures (5, 15, and $25^{\circ}C$). TTIs were attached to the surface of the ground beef patties in order to evaluate the degree of correlating colorimetric changes with the determined quality parameters. Through the Arrhenius equation, activation energy and constant reaction rates of TTI, VBN, and total microbial counts were calculated as to observe the relationship between enzymatic reactions of the TTI and food spoilage reactions of the ground beef patties. VBN and total microbial counts were already increased to reach decomposition index (VBN: 20, total microbial count: 7-8 Log CFU/g) of meat at middle stage of storage period for each storage temperature. Although activation energy of TTI enzymatic reactions and food spoilage reactions of the ground beef patties were similar, the change of TTI color was not a coincidence for food spoilage at $5^{\circ}C$ and $15^{\circ}C$ of storage temperature. It was suggested that TTI should be designed individually for storage temperature, time, type of meat, or decomposition index of meat.

Anchovy spawn from the end of May to mid-October, when the water temperature is $14.8-27.2\;^{\circ}C$ and the salinity is 26.0-33.6 psu. The main spawning season is between July to August, when the water temperature is $21.7-27.2\;^{\circ}C$ and the salinity is between 26.0-32.2 psu. The main spawning grounds of anchovy are coastal areas shallower than 50 m around the islands located in the Jeju Strait. Anchovy larvae are distributed near the fronts between Chuja-do, Jangsu-do, Yeoseo-do, and the open sea rather than in the spawning grounds. Anchovy eggs and larvae density increased in accordance with the high level of $Chlorophyll-{\alpha}$ during the summer season (July-August). In terms of the suspended sediment (SS) levels along the northern coast of the Jeju Strait, high densities of anchovy eggs (12.0-18.0 mg/L) were observed, mainly in the area affected by the coastal waters of the southern sea with high SS levels, while larvae (10.0-19.0 mg/L) tended to be distributed over a wide area with high SS levels, including the open sea. In terms of the dissolved oxygen (DO) content, eggs (5.4-6.8 mg/L) were observed in coastal areas with a high DO content, while larvae (4.2-6.4 mg/L) were distributed widely in areas with a relatively low DO content, from the southern coast to the open sea.

The seed powder of Abrus precatorius L. has traditionally been used as oral contraceptive agent by the women in some rural areas in Bangladesh. The present study aimed to examine the antifertility activity of A. precatorius seed extracts in experimental female rats. Finely ground seeds were extracted with aqueous acetone followed by successive partitioning with n-hexane, ethyl acetate (EtOAc), methanol (MeOH) and water. Water suspended crude seed powder, organic fractions of acetone extract and a standard contraceptive drug ($Nordette^{(R)}28$) were separately administered orally to the female rats for 30 days. n-Hexane, EtOAc and MeOH solubles at the doses of 2, 4 and 6 mg/rat/day, respectively and crude seed powder at 100 mg/rat/day exhibited 100% antifertility activity with lowest levels of serum luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and $17{\beta}$-estradiol. Histological study of ovary and uterus of these rats exhibited reduced number of developing follicles and increased number of atretic follicles in the ovary, and fewer uterine glands with shrunken morphology, reduced endometrial height, poor vascularity and compact stroma in uterus. However, the activities of serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase and serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase and the body weight of the rats remained almost unaffected in all the seed extract treated rats compared to control. These results suggest that A. precatorius seed extracts reduced the levels of serum FSH, LH and $17{\beta}$-estradiol probably by affecting hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. The reduced levels of these hormones might have affected the oestrous cycle, follicular development, and subsequently the establishment of pregnancy in treated rats.

This paper aims to investigate the effects of replacing cement with ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) in self compacting concrete in the fresh and hardened state. The performance of SCC in moderate climate is well investigated but few studies are available on the effect of hot environment. In this paper, the effect of initial water-curing period and curing conditions on the performance of SCC is reported. Cement was substituted by GGBFS by weight at two different levels of substitution (15% and 25%). Concrete specimens were stored either in a standard environment (T=$20^{\circ}C$, RH=100%) or in the open air in North Africa during the summer period (T=35 to $40^{\circ}C$; R.H=50 to 60%) after an initial humid curing period of 0, 3, 7 or 28 days. Compressive strength at 28 and 90 days, capillary absorption, sorptivity, water permeability, porosity and chloride ion penetration were investigated. The results show that the viscosity and yield stress are decreased with increasing dosage of GGBFS. The importance of humid curing in hot climates in particular when GGBFS is used is also proved. The substitution of cement by GGBFS improves SCC durability at long term. The best performances were observed in concrete specimens with 25% GGBFS and for 28 days water curing.

On March 11 in 2011, off the Pacific coast of Tohokua huge earthquake of Magnitude 9.0 occurred. This presentation reports the earthquake, the ensuing tsunami and the devastating damages caused by them. The epicenter was approximately 72 km east of the Oshika Peninsula of Tohoku, with the hypo-center at an underwater depth of approximately 32 km. Owing to this earthquake, strong quakes were observed in eastern Japan with the levels 6 and 7 on the Japanese scale. The earthquake triggered extremely destructive tsunami wave, which attacked the very wide range of eastern Japan coast. The earthquake and ensuing tsunami caused severe damage to levees and embankment along the coasts and rivers. Those water-related damages are reported in this presentation. The Fukushima No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant was also damaged by the earthquake and ensuing tsunami. From the crippled nuclear power plant, appreciable quantities of radioactive material were emitted to the surrounding environment. Those substances which emitted to air may fall on the ground together with raindrops and runoff to rivers. Elucidation of those processes is the task which our hydrological society should undertake.

In this study, result of a field investigation of railway traffic-induced vibrations is provided to examine acceptability levels of ground vibration and to evaluate the serviceability of a liquid-storage tank. Free field attenuation of the amplitudes as a function of distance is derived by six accelerometers and compared with a well-known half-space Bornitz's analytical solution which considers the loss of the amplitude of waves due to geometrical damping and material damping of Rayleigh. Bornitz's solution tends to overlap vertical free field vibration compared with in-situ measured records. The vibrations of the liquid-storage tank were compared with the USA, Federal Transportation Railroad Administration (FTA) criteria for acceptable ground-borne vibrations and with the criteria in DIN 4150-3 German standard. Comparing the thresholds stated in DIN 4150-3, absolute peak particle velocities are within the safe limits, however according to FTA velocity level at the top of the water tank exceeds the allowable limits. Furthermore, it is intended to indicate experimentally the effect of the kinematic interaction caused by the foundation of the structure on the free-field vibrations.
