The main purpose of this research is to provide scientific informations about standard wage and performance tariffs in forest management with special reference to working time for thinning. To identify relationships between net working time and tree characteristics, three geographically different sample plots were established at Yangsan, Bongpyung and Jinan and 460 oaks, 372 Japanese larches, 232 red pine and 240 pitch pine mere selected at each sample plots. The results of statistical analysis using multiple regression are as follows ; 1. Five independent variables of breast height diameter(DBH), mid-diameter(MD) large end diameter(LD), log-length(L), No. of branches(NOB) were stable independent of worker and tree species. 2. Comparing correlation coefficient of five independent variables, the best predictive variables, breast height diameter and No. of branches, were selected. Breast height diameter and No. of branches were identified as the most important independent variables in terms of effect on the dependent variable of the working time. 3. Comparing coefficient of determination (Rp) and residual mean square (MSEp), the best Linear regression equation for each tree species was selected as follower : $WT=a+b1{\times}NOB+b2{\times}DBF$ 4. Proportion of hang-up time to total working time in thinning were 66% in oak stand, 74%, in Japanese larch stand, 55%, in red pine stand and 52% in pitch pine stand, respectively. 5. Based on the best regression equation, a table of working time was made by strata of number of branches and breast height diameter. 6. Total working time using the best regression equation in Table 5 can be predicted in terms of felling time, limbing time, hang-up time, i.e., total working time increases by 11 to 13 seconds with every 1 centimeter increase in breast height diameter from 7 to 16 centimeter.

The lightning protection of information and communication facilities is very important factor to improve a reliability of the action of these equipment. Especially the transient potential rise of ground electrode being injected with the lightning current is to be a basic data of the dielectric strength for both power and communication facilities so that more accurate analysis should be required. The transient potential rise can be calculated from the ground impedance and the ground impedance is strongly dependent upon the shape of the ground electrode and the frequency-dependence of soil. The Debye's equation which is able to calculate the characteristics of dielectrics is used to analyze the frequency-dependent of soil. Also, the method to calculate the transient potential rise from the ground impedance is specified in this paper. In order to analyze the transient potential rise resulting from calculations with Debye's equation, TLM(transmission line method) and case of ${\rho}$(resistivity)-constant are simulated, respectively. The length of a horizontal ground electrode is 30 m and simulations were performed at 10, 100, $1000{\Omega}{\cdot}m$ with the standard lightning current waveform. In result, the transient potential rise of horizontal ground electrode calculating with Debye's equation is lower than it of other models.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the pollutant reduction effect for non-irrigated crop land by nonpoint source pollution control. For a field scale monitoring, 6 plots (5m width and 22m length) and 3 sediment traps were installed. At the outlet of each plot, the stage gauges were installed for runoff monitoring. For a rainfall monitoring, tipping bucket rain gage was installed within the experiment site. Through the artificial irrigation, runoff from the plots were monitored. The SS, TOC, T-N, T-P, COD, NTU of sampled water were analyzed by standard methods. The SS, TOC, T-N, T-P, COD, NTU concentration of initial runoff were 15.00, 1.54, 5.27, 0.07, 4.72, 0.45mg/L, respectively. Four hours later than the initial runoff, the concentration was changed to 1.00, 0.94, 4.06, 0.01, 0.60, 0.33 mg/L, respectively. As a result of artificial irrigation, three out of four sediment traps were filled with runoff water from the experimental plots. One sediment trap was not filled with runoff water because the artificial irrigation was not supplied for two experimental plots. The stage of sediment traps were gradually lowered. However, the water quality didn't showed a decrease trend as the stage went down because the suspended solid was not equally collected during the water sampling.

SAR imagery usually reveals the influence of antenna look-direction on the delineation of geological structures. In this study, the look-direction bias in SAR image is quantitatively analyzed specifically for geological lineament study. Geologic lineaments are estimated using both Landsat TM and JERS-1 SAR images over the study area to quantitatively compare and analyze the look-direction bias in the SAR image. The standard geologic lineaments in the study area are established from lineaments estimated from TM images, field mapping, and fault lines in a published geologic map. The results show that lineaments normal to radar look-direction are extremely well enhanced while those parallel to look-direction are less visible as expected. However, certain lineaments even parallel to radar look-direction can still be detectable in a favorable topographic condition. Compared with TM image, the total number of detected lineaments in each direction in the SAR image increases or decreases ranging from 33% to 159% in length and from 28% to 187% in occurrence. The ratio of lineaments in SAR image to those in TM image with respect to direction can be fitted by a cosine function. The fitted function indicates that geological lineament is more easily detected in SAR image than in TM image within about $\pm$50$^{\circ}$ normal to radar look-direction. And lineaments with limited extension appear to be more sensitive to the look direction bias effect.

In general, it accomplished a spectral reflectance analysis to be, the measurement results appear differently by targets, methods and condition. This paper presents a standard methodology for preprocessing mineral/rock samples and setting the distance from a target to the sensor, and then examines closely the spectral features for pyrophyllite. The size of mineral/rock samples is various according to the condition and scale of outcrop, so it is important to maintain the distance between the sensor and the sample. Before standardization for preprocessing samples and the sensor and sample distance, we prepare various rock samples (Quartz Porphyry) such as natural rock, pebble, powder and cutting rock. For a qualitative analysis to minimize the effect of surface condition of the sample and shadow, we maintains the distance from the sample to the sensor at 30cm and measures three times repeatedly for cutting the sample at $1{\sim}2cm$ thickness. To illustrate the proposed methodology, a case study for pyrophyllite was carried out. In this study, pyrophyllite showed an absorption pattern at wave length of 1.406nm, 1,868nm, 2.180nm and 2.309nm, and a higher grade represented strong absorption at 1.406nm and 2.180 nm. These absorption feature corresponds the band 7 of LANDSAT TM and band 8 of ASTER imageries. So, using these results, pyrophyllite deposits were extracted from other features (such as barren area, concrete area, bed of river, stone pit area etc.).

Two species of fishes of Genus Liobagrus that had been collected from three separate river systems in Korea were compared by their morphology and gel electrophoretic patterns of water soluble proteins. In morphology L. andersoni from Han River was distinctly different from L. mediadiposalis collected from both Gum River and Nagdong River. But L. andersoni collected from Gum River not only showed partial similarity for both groups of fishes above in their classifying characteristics but also had a unique ratio of body width/standard length. Comparable similarity and difference among the three groups were also noted in their protein patterns of SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of various tissues. The difference was clearer and more distinct in the gel run with muscle proteins. A couple of more distinctly different low molecular polypeptides were detected by two dimensional gel electrophoresis. Since the protein patterns shown in this study are not only agreeable with the morphological results but also provide detailed comparisons, fishes of Liobagrus from various water sources can be classified reliably by gel electrophoresis. On the bases of tghe findings above, L. andersoni like fishes collected from Gum River should no longer be classified as L. andersoni. Before naming them as an independent species, the possibility of natural hybrid between the two defined species, or of a varient of L. andersoni by geograpic isolation should be tested.
