The plot geometry of the paddy land is directly related to the performance of machines, especially those having a large size and high speed. The study was to investigate the optimum plot geometry from the standpoint of mechanization. A simulator, Field-Plot-Structure-Evaluation-System(FPSES) was developed for evaluation of the field performance of machines according to the plot geometry. The efficiency and capacity of different sizes of machinery used for rice farming functions were analyzed for a various combination of plot geometry, which could be used as reference for the land reclamation planning and mechanization programming. It is shown that the plot size of about two hectares having a length of 200m and width of loom may be optimum, considering the efficiency and capacity of large sized machinery available currently and in near future.

The study is aimed to investigate the features and socio-economic background of farmland consolidation project with medium-sized paddy plot at irrigation associations during the Japanese colonial period in Korea. Most of farmland consolidation works in the 1940s was composed of independent irrigation and drainage ditches along the short side of field plot. However, the number of farm roads at farmland consolidation zone was much smaller than number of irrigation ditches to decrease reduction in farmland area. The standard field plot was medium-sized (about 20-40 ares) in Korea but small-sized (about 10 ares) in Japan in this period. As the result of farmland consolidation works, the unit water requirement was increased to 0.0035 m³/s/ha, and the unit area drainage discharge was over 2.0 m³/s/km² in many cases. The farmland consolidation with medium-sized plot have been spread under the colonial landlord system, where major landlords occupied a large share of farmland and managed corporate farming to gain more benefit. The reasons for spread of farmland consolidation with medium-sized plot may be as follows: high net profit ratio, an increase in land price, and labor savings in rice farming. The farmland consolidation with medium-sized plot in the colonial period showed intermediate features between the farm consolidation with small-sized plot for an increase in land productivity in Japan and the farm consolidation with medium-sized plot for an increase in labor productivity after the 1960s.

An optimum route to fabricate a hybrid-structured W powder composed of nano and micro size powders was investigated. The mixture of nano and micro W powders was prepared by a ball milling and hydrogen reduction process for $WO_3$ and W powders. Microstructural observation for the ball-milled powder mixtures revealed that the nano-sized $WO_3$ particles were homogeneously distributed on the surface of large W powders. The reduction behavior of $WO_3$ powder was analyzed by a temperature programmed reduction method with different heating rates in Ar-10% $H_2$ atmosphere. The activation energies for the reduction of $WO_3$, estimated by the slope of the Kissinger plot from the amount of reaction peak shift with heating rates, were measured as 117.4 kJ/mol and 94.6 kJ/mol depending on reduction steps from $WO_3$ to $WO_2$ and from $WO_2$ to W, respectively. SEM and XRD analysis for the hydrogen-reduced powder mixture showed that the nano-sized W particles were well distributed on the surface of the micro-sized W powders.

동적 컴퓨터단층촬영을 이용하여 연령에 따른 CT-GFR 수치에 대한 패턴을 살펴보기 위해 본 연구를 실시하였다. 품종이나 성별에 대한 제한 없이 다양한 연령으로 15마리의 개를 이용하였다. 혈액검사, 요검사, 영상학적 검사를 실시하여 개의 건강 상태를 확인한 후, propofol-isoflurane을 이용한 호흡마취를 실시하여 CT 촬영을 하였다. Iohexol (1 ml/kg, 300 mgI/ml)을 3 ml/s 일정한 속도로 2분간 주입하면서 1.5초 간격으로 총 80개의 영상을 촬영하여 파트락 분석을 통해 사구체여과율 (ml/min/kg)을 측정하였다. 양측 신장의 사구체여과율의 범위는 2.57-6.60 ml/min/kg이었다. 연구에서 연령에 따라 사구체여과율의 유의적인 차이는 확인되지 않았다.

Background and objective: The main objective of this study is to measure the amount of particulate matter (PM) reduction under different characteristics of leaves in 18 different species of indoor plants. Methods: First, a particular amount of PM was added to the glass chambers (0.9×0.86×1.3 m) containing the indoor plant (height = 40 ± 20 cm), and the PM concentration were measured at 2-hour intervals. The experiment with the same conditions was conducted in the empty chamber as the control plot. Results: The range of PM reduction per unit leaf area of 18 species of experimental plants was 3.3-286.2 ㎍·m^-2 leaf, total leaf area was 1,123-4,270 cm², and leaf thickness was 0.14-0.80 mm and leaf size 2.27-234.47 cm². As time passed, the concentration of PM decreased more in the chamber with plants than in the empty chamber. Among the 18 indoor plants, the ones with the greatest reduction in PM2.5 in 2 hours and 4 hours of exposure to PM2.5 were Pachira aquatica and Dieffenbachia amoena. As the exposure time of PM increased, the efficiency of reducing PM2.5 was higher in plants with medium-sized leaves than plants with large or small leaves. The effect of reducing PM2.5 was higher in linear leaves than round or lobed leaves. Plants with high total leaf area did not have advantage in reducing PM because the leaves were relatively small and there were many overlapping parts between leaves. In the correlation between leaf characteristics and PM 2.5 reductions, all leaf area and leaf thickness showed a negative and leaf size showed a positive correlation with PM reduction. Conclusion: The PM reduction effect of plants with medium-sized leaves and long linear leaves was relatively high. Moreover, plants with a large total leaf area without overlapping leaves will have advantaged in reducing PM. Plants are effective in reducing PM, and leaf characteristics are an important factor that affects PM reduction.

본 연구는 위내용물 분석과 안정동위원소(δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N) 분석을 통하여 우리나라 동해 북부 연안에 출현하는 명태(Gadus chalcogrammus)와 대구(G. macrocephalus)의 종내 및 종간 먹이자원 분할을 조사하였다. 두 종은 중층성 육식성 어종으로 명태는 저서성 및 중층성 갑각류를 주로 섭식하였고, 대구는 어류를 주로 섭식하였다. 위내용물 분석 결과에 대한 Non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) ordination과 permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA)은 두 종의 종내 및 종간 먹이조성의 차이와 먹이자원 분할을 보여줬다. 안정동위원소 분석 결과 δ¹⁵N 값은 종간 유사하였지만, δ¹³C 값은 대구가 높은 값을 나타내어 두 종간 생태지위 차이를 보여줬다. 명태는 체장 증가에 따라 큰 체장군에서 새우류와 두족류를 더 많이 섭식하는 먹이 전환을 나타냈지만, 대구는 체장군 간 먹이조성이 유사하였다. 안정동위원소 분석에서도 체장군 간 차이를 보였는데, 두 종의 큰 체장군은 작은 체장군에 비해 더 높은 δ¹⁵N 값을 나타낸다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 명태와 대구의 위내용물 분석과 안정동위원소 분석을 통하여 종내 및 종간 먹이 차이와 생태지위 분할의 증거를 보여줬다.
