To investigate the controlling factor and accumulation of trace metal concentrations in Chun-su Bay sediments, grain-size, specific surface area, organic carbon content, calcium carbonate content, and concentration of Al, Fe, Na, K, Mg, Ca, Ti, Mn, P, S, Ba, Sr, Li, Co, Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Cs, Sc, V, Sn were analyzed. Controlling factors of metals were quartz-dilution, calcium carbonate and coarse sand or K-feldspar. Although the distribution of V, Co, Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, Sn, and Cd concentration was explained by grain-size effiect, Mn and As showed the similar importance of grain-size effect and coarse sand or K-feldspar factors. By virtue of enrichment factor and 1 M HCl experiment, there were little enrichment in all the trace metals in bay sediments, which were explained well by geochemical properties of sediments. Since the concentration levels of As in coarse sand were high as much as those in fine-grained sediments and it was combined with Mn oxide (1 M HCl leached) and K-feldspar (residual), it was suggested that when the enrichment of As in sediments would be assessed, it is necessary to separate the coarse sand from bulk sediments or to use only sediments with higher than 10% in < $16{\mu}m$ fraction.

This study aims to figure out the vegetation status and characteristics of the spatial distribution in Taeanhaean National Park. As a result, vegetation communities were Pinus thunbergii community, Pinus densiflora community, Pinus thunbergii-Pinus densiflora community, Camellia japonica community, Carpinus turczaninowii community, Carpinus turczaninowii-Pinus thunbergii community, Kalopanax septemlobus community, Koelreuteria paniculata community, Robinia pseudoacacia community, and sand dune and coastal wetland vegetation including Vitex rotundifolia community, Elymus mollis community, Calamagrostis epigeios community, Ischaemum anthephoroides community, Zoysia sinica community, Suaeda maritima community, and Phragmites communis community. Landscape types in actual vegetation map were Pinus thunbergii community (3.92%), Pinus densiflora community (1.40%), Robinia pseudoacacia community (0.05%), sand dune and coastal wetland vegetation (0.11%), field (0.46%), seashore (0.24%), thinning area (0.08%), bareground (0.16%), and sea (93.58%). Area of Pinus thunbergii community among vegetation type was $14.797km^2$ (3.92%) and the largest. Stratification structure and species composition of Pinus thunbergii community distributed in the seashore were different as a result of disturbance and human use. On the other hand, we assumed that succession will take place to the potential natural vegetation that is Quercus serrata and Quercus dentata in undisturbed Pinus thunbergii community. Meanwhile, Erechtites hieracifolia was occupied in understory of Pinus thunbergii community around the seashore and Diodia teres was invaded to sand dune vegetation. They may affect on natural species negatively. Therefore, monitoring and management plans are necessary.

The concrete structures possessing good structural integrity can face durability problems due to deteriorations of concrete structures under various environmental conditions. The durability problems weaken the structural integrity in the long run. Especially, the excessive use of sea sand causes serious reinforcement corrosion and carbonation in concrete structures. An accelerated test is often used to predict deterioration as a qualitative measure, but without long term exposure test results or understanding of the relationship between the accelerated test and the long term exposure test, the accelerated test result alone can not be used effectively as a quantitative measure. In this paper, a methodology is proposed to predict the long term deteriorations, based on the result of the short-term accelerated test, of concrete containing different contents of chloride ions. Then, the correlation between two results on the steel corrosion ratio and the carbonation depth is analyzed for concrete with different chloride contents.

The objective of this study is to obtain characteristics of early age pore-structure and carbonation of concrete using ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS). The durability of GGBFS concrete should be evaluated for wide use of the GGBFS. As for that evaluation, an analysis on early age pore-structure characteristics of GGBFS concrete are very important, Carbonation depths of GGBFS concrete, which are known to be larger than that of OPC, are different according to replacement ratios and fineness of slag. Because sea sand as fine aggregate is much used recently, it is also necessary to analyze characteristics of carbonation of GGBFS concrete. In this study, The micro-pore structure formation characteristics of GGBFS concrete are obtained through the test of GGBFS mortars with different fineness and replacement ratio of GGBFS. The carbonation of GGBFS concrete is also investigated by acclerated carbonation test for early age GGBFS concrete.

A series of echo-sounding and current measurements as well as the drogue and drift bottle experiments were carried out in the mouth of the Nakdong river from April 1986 to August 1987: Several sand bars and sea channels are formed by reclaiming and dredging work in the river. The main stream of the river is separated into east and west branch channel. The tidal current speed of the west channel is faster than of the east channel in 1986, but is reverse in 1987 to that in 1986.

In this study, usability and stability in the caisson filling material were reviewed that copper salg(one million tons per one-year) were produced by smelter. In order to complete these studies, chemical and physical comparing analyses were performed by sea-sand materials as to the materials suitability, After construction, the structural displacement of caisson was measured by the instrument and was examined for stability. As a result of analysis, it was determined that copper slag is eco-friendly, and can be used as recycled alternative to aggregates materials.

Recently, the river sands are in short supply. Gathering sea-sand will be faced with difficulty. Alternative aggregates for concrete are estimated by many researchers. The aggregates are blast furnace slag, steel slag, copper slag, ferro-nickel slag and recycled aggregate and etc. Nevertheless steel slag has been limited in practical use due to its expansibility which is occurred reaction with water and free CaO in slag. Most recently stable management method is to minimize the expansibility researched and developed. First of all, slump, air content, compressive strength and flexural strength are measured in concrete. An estimate is made of the segregation of concrete containing atomized steel slag by Image Analyser program.

The family Olividae includes predatory species with medium-sized, glossy, elongated oval-shaped shell. As sand-dwellers, they are broadly distributed in tropical and subtropical oceans. They feed mostly on other mollusks and carrions including sea snails and bivalves. To date, two species in the genus Amalda (subfamily Ancillinae) have been reported in Korean waters. In this study, Amalda rubiginosa (Swainson, 1823) was collected from Korean waters and morphologically described in details as a first record.

Recently, use of sea-sand as fine aggregates in reinforced concrete structures is increasing because of lacking of supply due to destructive of environment caused by obtaining and exhausting of resource. It rise up issue, some field reconstruction, interrupted construction works occurring to the trouble on the site because sometimes engineer does not agree to use of corroded bar, even slighly corroded. This study investigates the properties of bond strength and the structural behavior of corroded bars before and after placement. The purpose of the study is to present the database estimating degree of damaged bond strength according to corrosion level and deciding on whether using corroded bars or not.

Reinforced concrete has been widely used as a semi-permanent construction materials. However, sea sand, deicing salt, and marine condition might induce the corrosion of embedded reinforcement due to the penetration of chlorides in concrete structures. This reinforcement corrosion causes serious problems on safety and serviceability of structures during lifetime. Also, reinforcement corrosion may cause the collapse of structures in worst case, so that the corrosion problem is more and more intensely growing. The purpose of this paper is to provide the fundamental data for the mechanical effect of corrosion through evaluation on bond characteristics of reinforced concrete using corroded bars.
