An alkalophilic microorganism for overproduction of cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) was newly isolated from hot-water spring soil, and identified as Bacillus firmus var. alkalophilus H609. The strain maintained stability during preservation and cultivation for the enzyme production, and produced significant amount of CGTase corresponding to the volumetric activity of 75 units/mL at 37C, initial pH of 11.2, and after 40 hours. The strain excreted several different proteins showing CGTase activity that catalyzed the formation of mainly beta-and Gamma-type cyclodextrin (ratio of 7:1) from soluble starch without accumulation of alpha-type. Other enzymatic properties were also investigated.

One of the principal components of the KSTAR (Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research) tokamak structure is the vacuum vessel, which acts as the high vacuum boundary for the plasma and also provides the structural support for internal components. Hyundai Heavy Industries Inc. has performed the engineering design of the vacuum vessel. Here the overall configuration of the KSTAR vacuum vessel was briefly described and then the design methodology and the analysis results were presented. The vacuum vessel consists of double walls, several ports, leaf spring style supports. Double walls are separated by reinforcing ribs and filled with baking/shielding water. The overall external dimensions of the main body are 3.39 m high, 1.11 m inner radius, 2.99 m outer radius, and made of SA240-316LN. The vacuum vessel was designed to be capable of achieving the base pressure of $1\times10^{-8}$ Torr, and also to be structurally capable of sustaining the vacuum pressure, the electromagnetic and thermal loads during plasma disruption and bakeout, respectively. The vacuum vessel will be baked out maximum $150^{\circ}C$ by hot pressurized water through the channels formed between double walls and the reinforcing ribs. A 3-D temperature distribution and the resulting thermal loads in the vessel were calculated during bakeout. It was found that the vacuum vessel and its supports were structurally rigid based on the thermal stress analysis. The maximum electromagnetic loads on the vacuum vessel induced by eddy and halo currents resulting from the engineering plasma radial and vertical disruption scenarios have been estimated. The stress analyses have been performed based on these electromagnetic loads and the resulting stresses at he critical locations of the vacuum vessel were within the allowable stresses.

It is getting difficult to manage water resources in South Korea because more than half of annual precipitation is concentrated in the summer season and its intensity is increasing due to global warming and climate change. Artificial recharge schemes such as well recharge of surface water and roof-top rainwater harvesting can be a useful method to manage water resources in Korea. In this study, potential artificial recharge site is evaluated using geographic information system with hydrogeological and social factors. The hydrogeological factors include annual precipitation, geological classification based on geological map, specific capacity and depth to water level of national groundwater monitoring wells. These factors were selected to evaluate potential artificial recharge site because annual precipitation is closely related to source water availability for artificial recharge, geological features and specific capacity are related to injection capacity and depth to water is related to storage capacity of the subsurface medium. In addition to those hydrogeological factors, social aspect was taken into consideration by selecting the areas that is not serviced by national water works and have been suffered from drought. These factors are graded into five rates and integrated together in the GIS system resulting in spatial distribution of artificial recharge potential. Cheongsong, Yeongdeok in Gyeongsangbuk-do and Hadong in Gyeongsangnam-do, and Suncheon in Jeollanam-do were proven as favorable areas for applying artificial recharge schemes. Although the potential map for artificial recharge in South Korea developed in this study need to be improved by using other scientific factors such as evaporation and topographical features, and other social factors such as water-curtain cultivation area, hot spring resorts and industrial area where groundwater level is severely lowered, it can be used in a rough site-selection, preliminary and/or feasibility study for artificial recharge.

Using a variety of chemical geothermometers we estimate the temperature of a deep geothermal reservoir in relation to thermal groundwater in the Bugok area, southern Korea, in order to assess the potential use of geothermal energy in South Korea. Thermal water at Bugok has been exploited down to about 400 m below the land surface and shows the highest outflow temperatures (up to $78{\circ}C$) in South Korea. Based on the hydrochemical data and occurrence, groundwater in Bugok can be classified into three groups: $Na-SO_4$ type thermal groundwater (CTGW) occurring in the central part (about 0.24 $km^2$) $Ca-HCO_3$ type cold groundwater (SCGW) occurring in shallow peripheral parts of CTGW; and the intermediate type groundwater (STGW). CTGW waters are typical of thermal water in the area, because they have the highest outflow temperatures and contain very high concentrations of Na, K and $SiO_2$ due to the sufficient reaction with silicate minerals in deep reservoir. Their enriched $SO_4$ was likely formed by gypsum dissolution. The major ion composition of CTGW shows the general approach to a partial equilibrium state with rocks at depth. The application of various alkali ion geothermometers yields temperature estimates in the range of 88 to $198{\circ}C$ for the thermal reservoir. Multiple mineral equilibrium calculation indicates asimilar but narrower temperature range between about 100 and $155{\circ}C$. These temperature estimates are not significantly higher than the measured outflow temperatures for CTGW Considering the heat loss during the ascent- of thermal waters, this fact may suggest that a thermal reservoir in the study area is likely located at relatively shallow depths (possibly close to the depth of preexisting wells). Therefore, we suggest a high potential for geothermal energy development around the Bugok area in southern Korea.

We analyzed global positioning system (GPS)-derived precipitable water vapor (PWV) trends of the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute 5 stations (Seoul, Daejeon, Mokpo, Milyang, Sokcho) where Korea Meteorological Administration meteorological data can be obtained at the same place. In the least squares analysis, the GPS PWV time series showed consistent positive trends (0.11 mm/year) over South Korea from 2000 to 2009. The annual increase of GPS PWV was comparable with the 0.17 mm/year and 0.02 mm/year from the National Center for Atmospheric Research Earth Observing Laboratory and Atmospheric InfraRed Sounder, respectively. For seasonal analysis, the increasing tendency was found by 0.05 mm/year, 0.16 mm/year, 0.04 mm/year in spring (March-May), summer (June-August) and winter (December-February), respectively. However, a negative trend (-0.14 mm/year) was seen in autumn (September-November). We examined the relationship between GPS PWV and temperature which is the one of the climatic elements. Two elements trends increased during the same period and the correlation coefficient was about 0.8. Also, we found the temperature rise has increased more GPS PWV and observed a stronger positive trend in summer than in winter. This is characterized by hot humid summer and cold dry winter of Korea climate and depending on the amount of water vapor the air contains at a certain temperature. In addition, it is assumed that GPS PWV positive trend is caused by increasing amount of saturated water vapor due to temperature rise in the Korean Peninsula. In the future, we plan to verify GPS PWV effectiveness as a tool to monitor changes in precipitable water through cause analysis of seasonal trends and indepth/long-term comparative analysis between GPS PWV and other climatic elements.

우리나라 근해의 열 에너지 이용 가능성을 알기 위하여 황해 동부해역의 연직온도차 분포상황 및 그 계절적 변동을 조사하였고, 이들과 해수유동과의 관련성에 관하여 고찰하였다. 하계에는 거안 약 40mile 해역인 125${\circ}$30'E 이서의 34${\circ}$N이북에 연직온도차가 16$^{\circ}C$ 이상 되는 곳이 존재하는 바, 이것은 따뜻한 황해 난류계수의 표면가열과 저층의 황해냉수에 기인하는 것으로 생각된다. 연안으로 갈수록 연직 온도차는 줄어지고, 거안 약 30mile 해역에서는 약 1$0^{\circ}C$이다. 이를 이용하여 온도차발전이 가능하다고 보아진다. 제주도 남부 및 서부해역은 연직 온도차가 약 14$^{\circ}C$ 이상을 보인다. 겨울에는 왕성한 대류혼합으로 연직 온도차는 거의 없어진다. 그러나 겨울에는 강한 계절풍이 계속 발전체계를 여름에는 온도차발전, 겨울에는 파력 및 풍력발전을 하는 방식으로 체계화하면 주년 계속 발전이 가능할 것이라 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the thermal resistance and the liquid/vapor water transfer characteristics of four waterproof and water vapor permeable coated fabrics with the ground fabric called nylon taffeta. In order to establish the experimental environment, outdoor temperature and humidity in Taegu during the last three years were examined and the experiment was performed at (1) $15^{\circ}C$, 50% R.H., (2) $20^{\circ}C$, 60% R.H., (3) $25^{\circ}C$, 65% R.H., which were the average standards in spring and fall. The test results were as follows ; 1. Among physical parameters, the thinner the thickness was, the higher the water vapor permeability was. But the porosity in thickness was not proportional to water vapor permeability linearly. 2. The thicker the thickness of specimens was and the smaller the bulk density and porosity were, the higher the thermal resistance. And the results also shown that the larger the temperature difference between the environmental temperature and the hot plate was, the more the difference of CLO values was apparent. 3. Since the contact angle of all specimens are above $90^{\circ}$, the all specimens have a good performance in waterproof. The more the specimens surface were rough, the higher the thermal resistance was. 4. According to the result of performing moisture transfer test using the simulating body skin-clothing-environment system, the humidity sensor placed in between the fabric and the environment detected the full saturation in 10 minutes after the experiment had began at $15^{\circ}C$, 50% R.H. and in 15 minutes after the experiment both at $20^{\circ}C$, 60% R.H. and at $25^{\circ}C$, 65% R.H. 5. ${\Delta}$ values of the humidity sensors placed in between the human body and the fabric and in between the fabric and the environment fluctuated repeatedly within the range of $20{\sim}40%$ at $20^{\circ}C$, 60% R.H., and $15{\sim}30%$ at $25^{\circ}C$, 65% R.H.

온배수와 산성화는 오래 전부터 전 세계를 통해 육수학과 수생태학에서 많은 관심을 갖게 한 분야이었다. 그러나 우리나라는 아직까지 초보적이거나 접근 조차 미진한 실정에 있다. 본 연구는 2015년 12월부터 2016년 9월까지 경기도 포천에 위치한 계류(부소천)의 최상류 구간 5개 지점(BSU (상류), HSW (온천폐수 방류구), BSD1~3 (하류))에서 수질환경과 부착조류 생태계에 온배수와 산성비의 시공간적 영향을 파악하고자 매월 조사하였다. 조사기간 동안 수온의 범위(평균값)는 $1.7{\sim}28.8^{\circ}C$($15.0^{\circ}C$)이었다. 특히 HSW의 범위와 평균값은 17.5 (1월)~$28.8^{\circ}C$(9월), $24.2{\pm}3.7^{\circ}C$로서 고온을 유지하였고, 다른 지점에 비해 월등히 높았다. 온배수는 하천수의 수온 증가와 영양염 펄스로서 작용하였으며, 그 영향은 갈수기와 저온기 (12월~3월)에 우세하였다. 그리고 온도의 영향권은 유하 거리에 따라 멀지 않았으나, P N 영양염은 다소 원거리까지 미칠 수 있는 잠재력을 갖고 있었다. pH는 5.1~8.4 (6.9)이었다. 수중 pH 감소의 원인은 계절적으로 강설과 산성비의 습윤 산성강하물에 있었고, 그 영향은 부착 규조류 중 호산성 종조성(Eunotia pectinalis, Tabellaria flocculosa)의 생물학적 분포에서 간헐적(3월과 8월)으로 확인되었다. 부소천의 수질과 부착조류 생태계는 열 오염, 부영양화 및 산성화에 의한 역동적인 상태이었고, 계류, 온배수 및 대기오염과 같은 지리 지역적 특성에 기반한 인위적 영향이 지배적이었다.

충청권을 비롯한 금강권역은 삼국시대 문화유산과 온천 및 약수와 같은 자연유산이 다수 존재하지만, 소극적 홍보와 시설의 노후화로 신생 대형시설과의 경쟁에서 밀리며 구체적 발전방안을 제시하지 못하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 충청 및 금강권역을 대상으로 지오빅데이터 오픈플랫폼의 지하수 정보를 활용하여 수량 및 수질이 양호한 온천과 약수터를 선정하고, 지하수자원과 문화관광지를 연계한 물문화벨트를 제안하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해, 한국지질자원연구원의 지하수 산출유망도와 지하수 수질지수도, 한국관광공사와 문화재청의 공개자료를 활용하여 지하수자원의 공간적 해석과 문화적 가치부여를 시도하였다. 금강권역의 전통온천과 탄산약수, 비탄산약수의 수질은 상당히 양호한 것으로 해석되었으며, 금강권역의 북부지역은 온천과 탄산천이 풍부하여 보양 및 휴양에 중점을 둔 물휴양 산업단지로 개발하는 것이 유리할 것으로 판단된다. 금강 권역 중·남부지역은 수질이 우수한 샘터 및 문화관광시설이 있어 지하수자원과 문화자원을 융합한 개발과 홍보가 가능할 것으로 판단한다.

본 연구는 물을 매개로 하는 물리적 치유의 경관이 갖는 신체적, 문화적, 공간적, 경제적 의의가 어떤 형태로 여성을 중심으로 하는 공간에서 나타나는지 살펴보고, 이를 여성을 위한 쉼터로서의 기능, 여성을 위한 배려의 기능, 여성을 형상화한 기능으로 나눠 검토하는 것에 목표를 두고 있다. 여성을 위한 쉼터로서의 기능에는 신체적 의의가 가장 두드러지게 나타나며, 온천수와 온천욕, 분위기, 부대시설, 안전한 밤문화 등으로 구체화된다. 이러한 매개를 통해 여성은 자유로움, 온천수가 온전한 상태로 회귀시켜주는 힘, 끊임없이 제공받는 치유의 장치, 안전하게 보호해주는 것, 마음을 열고 자연스럽게 타인과의 교류 등을 느끼게 된다. 다음으로 여성을 위한 배려의 기능에서는 물을 매개로 하는 치유의 경관이 갖는 문화적 의의가 두드러지게 되는데, 이는 온천에서 발견할 수 있는 문화이기도 하지만, 배려에 바탕을 둔 일본의 문화가 자연스럽게 혼합되어 나타나는 현상이라 할 수 있다. 예를 들어, 송영버스, 오카미상 혹은 나카이상의 서비스, 장식품, 장난스러운 설치물, 개인공간의 확보 등을 통해서 다양한 즐거움을 느낄 수 있고, 누군가 지지해주고 혹은 지켜주고 있다는 느낌을 받게 되며, 신체적인 아름다움뿐만 아니라 정신적인 아름다움까지도 추구하게 된다. 마지막으로 여성을 형상화한 기능은 문화적, 공간적, 경제적 의의 등 폭넓게 나타나는데, 광고매체, 온천과 관련된 표식, 신사, 오브제, 상품화된 매개체 등을 통해 다양하게 드러난다. 이러한 기능은 건강함, 쉼, 편안함, 친숙함 혹은 익숙함, 사랑이 이루어지거나 혹은 행복한 결혼 생활로 이어진다는 이미지 등으로 승화된다. 이상을 통해 온천을 중심으로 나타나는 여성을 위한 치유의 요소는 자유로움, 안전함, 신체를 뛰어넘는 효과, 즐거움, 치유의 지속성, 아름다움, 희망 등으로 수렴되며, 이러한 요소들이 유기적으로 결합될 때 여성의 온전하지 않음은 온전함으로 회복되는 치유의 효과가 드러나는 것이라 할 수 있다.
