In this paper, the consolidation settlement of the landfill foundation during and after the period of disposal is analyzed using the program CONSOL which can include the influence of waste load and the leachate level into the analysis. the stability analysis of the embankment is also performed under the varied strength of foundation soil which results from the increase of effective stress due to consolidation of the clay under the landfill. The predicted settlement from CONSOL is compared with the field measured settlement. The results show that, when the leachate level increases with the increase of waste height, the increase of the effective stress of foundation clay is negligible and the stability of the slope of the landfill may not be secured as the disposal of the waste proceeds. Several complementary repairworks, e. g. the reduction of current slope of the fill, application of drain methods to stop or reduce !he leachate level are recommended. The predicted settlement consists moderately with the field measured settlement.

The low-rise buildings with gable roofs are commonly used in a number of industries. In order to study the characteristics of peak external pressure coefficient on low-rise buildings with gable roofs, wind-tunnel test have been carried out. Wind-induced pressures were measured simultaneously at many points on wind-pressure models, typical of simple low-rise buildings with gable roofs, which have seven different roof slope with constant width(D), height(H), and length(D). The pressure measurements were made in one kind of turbulent boundary layer, which simulated the natural winds over typical suburban terrains at a geometric scale of 1/150. The results indicate that peak external pressure coefficient on the roof and wall edges were increased. The results compared with wind standard of KBC-2005 and standards of various nations. The comparative resultant, experimental result appeared very similar at AIJ-2004. But the results were somewhat larger then wind standard of KBC-2005.

Soil erosion is a natural process and has been occurring in most areas in the watershed. However, accelerated soil erosion rates have been causing numerous environmental impacts in recent years. To reduce soil erosion and sediment inflow into the water bodies, site-specific soil erosion best management practices(BMPs) need to be established and implemented. The most commonly used soil erosion model is the Universal Soil Loss Equation(USLE), which have been used in many countries over 30 years. The Sediment Assessment Tool for Effective Erosion Control(SATEEC) ArcView GIS system has been developed and enhanced to estimate the soil erosion and sediment yield trom the watershed using the USLE input data. In the last decade, the Soil and Water Assessment Tool(SWAT) model also has been widely used to estimate soil erosion and sediment yield at a watershed scale. The SATEEC system estimates the LS factor using the equation suggested by Moore and Burch, while the SWAT model estimates the LS factor based on the relationship between sub watershed average slope and slope length. Thus the SATEEC and SWAT estimated soil erosion values were compared in this study. The differences in LS factor estimation methods in the SATEEC and SWAT caused significant difference in estimated soil erosion. In this study, the difference was -51.9%(default threshold)${\sim}-54.5%$(min. threshold) between SATEEC and non-patched SWAT, and -7.8%(default threshold)${\sim}+3.8%$(min. threshold) between SATEEC and patched SWAT estimated soil erosion.

A probability of slope hazards was predicted at a natural terrain around the stone relics of Jinjeon-saji area, which is located in Yangyang, Kangwon Province. As the analyzing results of field investigation, laboratory test and geology and geomorphology data, the effect factors of landslides occurrence were evaluated. Also, the landslides prediction map was made up using the prediction model by the effect factors. The landslide susceptibility of stone relics was investigated as the grading classification of occurrence probability. In the landslides prediction map, the high probability area was $3,489m^2$ and it was 10.1% of total prediction area. The high probability area has over 70% of occurrence probability. If landslides are occurred at the predicted area, the three stories stone pagoda of Jinjeon-saji(National treasure No. 122) and the stone lantern of Jinjeon-saji(Treasure No.439) will be collapsed by debris flow.

This study prepared the list of planning components required for constructing environment-friendly industrial complex and grasped major environment-friendly planning components by measuring the importance per each planning component via the survey for specialists. As a result of measuring the importance of planning component according to each field for constructing environment-friendly industrial complex, it is indicated that important planning components in natural environment field are establishing complex location plan considering its configuration and slope, excluding projects for steep slope-land, establishing countermeasures for reducing contaminants per its source, and separated location of contamination industry around living space. In living environment field, proposed planning components having relatively high importance are separated location of pollution causing industry, establishing energy saving land use plan, linking with green way, circulation network plan, lowering noise level at roadside, plan for separating between pedestrian and vehicle, securing parking space, extending green park and proper location, installing green buffer zone, conserving and forming landscapes, land use for raising energy efficiency, and expansion of energy source. In case of ecological environment, core planning components such as conserving upper class of ecological naturality degree, conserving main habitat, and biotope forming plan are suggested. This study is limited to find out planning components for constructing environment-friendly physical environment of industrial complex which is a part of non-production process. The approach to solve environmental problem by linking spatially production process and non-production process. There is a need to conduct follow-up study to constructing technique for environment-friendly industrial complex considering production & nonproduction process afterward.

In this study, hydraulic model same as natural channel with junction area and curved reach is constructed, and after that the variation of difference of the water surface elevation at cross section in junction area is analyzed using constructed hydraulic model. In junction area, the variation of maximum water level based on downstream section is more affected in discharge ratio at upstream than downstream. The maximum water level increased as closed to junction and the peak level appeared at just downstream of junction. The slope of water elevation at cross section is affected in section shape and decreased as discharge ratio is reduce. The expressed formulas developed in the channel consist of constant curvature and section shape showed difference of 60% with measured value, but the suggested formula in this study to compute difference of water surface elevation showed difference of 10% with measured value.

Allozyme study on a small pitch pine stand originating and expanded rather rapidly from a few founder trees indicated that the colonization of the pitch pine population was made progressively from the place where the founder trees located to another by moving in cohorts of seeds from a limited number of family or genetically closely related family groups in line with the succeeding generations. This pattern of migration and colonization resulted marked differences in allelic and genotypic frequencies at many of the allozyme loci between the initially colonized subpopulation on the south-facing slope and the lately colonized subpopulation on north-facing slope of a hill. It appeared that gene fixation due to inbreeding and genetic drift occurred at some loci in the pitch pine population or subpopulations. However, even in t 1e inbreeding small pitch pine population or subpopulations, a comparatively large amount of genetic diversity or heterozygosity was maintained due to the high levels of gene recombination at many of the gene loci and natural selections favoring for heterozygotes.

This study was conducted to maintain the productivity of forest production and byproducts production of natural forest. Distribution of wild edible herb species and correlations between wild edible herb species and forest-type, and site factors were surveyed on national forest in Changjeon-ni, Pyungchang-gun, Kang-won-do. Ligularia fischeri was distributed mainly on cutting sites or meadow or Quercus mongolica forest, Pimpinella brachycarpa did on broadleaved mixed forest, and Synurus deltoides did cutting sites or meadow. On conifer plantations major wild edible herb species were not distributed. Pimpinella brachycarpa and Ligularia fischera were distributed mainly on the site of wet soil-moisture condition, Codonopsis lanceolata, Saussurea grandifolia and Synurus deltoides were distributed randomly. The distribution of Ligularia fischeri and Pimpinella brachycarpa were significantly different between slope directions, but those of Codonopsis lanceolata, Saussurea grandifolia and Synurus deltoides were not significant. Ligularia fischeri and Pimpinella brachycarpa were distributed more frequently in north directed slope than the other. Highly positive correlations were proved Ligularia fischeri and Pimpinella brachycarpa, Aconitum jaluense and Veratrum patulum; Pimpinella brachycarpa and Smilacina japonica, Aconitum jaluense and Veratrum patulum.

Comparative study of the biomass productioin and the cyclings of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium was carried out on the east and the northwest facing slope in the montane grassland of Mt. Soback. The maximum productin during the growing season in the east and the northwest slope were 1, 150g/m2.yr, and 755g/m2.yr. in the August, respectively. The positive correlation was appearent between biomass production and A-layer depth of the soil and the correlation coefficient (r=.964) was very significant at 1% level. In the above ground materials, the nutrients contents were high at the early of the growing season but decreased gradually. In roots, however, there are no significant trend throughout the growing season. Total amounts of minerals uptaken by plants during the growing season in the east and the northwest site were 18.20 and 10.66g/m2.yr for N, 0.06 and 0.03g/m2.yr for P, 0.23 and 0.11g/m2.yr for K, respectively. the minerals returned to the soil by litter decomposition and roots decay in the east and the northwest site were 16.19 and 9.62g/m2.yr for N, 0.046 and 0.021g/m2.yr for P, 0.211 and 0.099g/m2.yr for K, respectively. The turnover the rate (absorbed/returned) of the nutrients in the east and the northwest site were 1.13 and 1.14 for N, 1.30 and 1.43 for P, 1.09 and 1.11 for K, and the absorption rates of minerals were 0.39 and 0.29% for N, 3.16 and 1.88% for P, 0.91 and 0.57% for K, respectively.
