  • ice yield and plant growth response to nitrogen (N) fertilizer may vary within a field, probably due to spatially variable soil conditions. An experiment designed for studying the response of rice yield to different rates of N in combination with variable soil conditions was carried out at a field where spatial variation in soil properties, plant growth, and yield across the field was documented from our previous studies for two years. The field with area of 6,600 m2 was divided into six strips running east-west so that variable soil conditions could be included in each strip. Each strip was subjected to different N application level (six levels from 0 to 165kg/ha), and schematically divided into 12 grids $(10m \times10m\;for\;each\;grid)$ for sampling and measurement of plant growth and rice grain yield. Most of plant growth parameters and rice yield showed high variations even at the same N fertilizer level due to the spatially variable soil condition. However, the maximum plant growth and yield response to N fertilizer rate that was analyzed using boundary line analysis followed the Mitcherlich equation (negative exponential function), approaching a maximum value with increasing N fertilizer rate. Assuming the obtainable maximum rice yield is constrained by a limiting soil property, the following model to predict rice grain yield was obtained: $Y=10765{1-0.4704^*EXP(-0.0117^*FN)}^*MIN(I-{clay},\;I_{om},\;I_{cec},\;I_{TN},\; I_{Si})$ where FN is N fertilizer rate (kg/ha), I is index for subscripted soil properties, and MIN is an operator for selecting the minimum value. The observed and predicted yield was well fitted to 1:1 line (Y=X) with determination coefficient of 0.564. As this result was obtained in a very limited condition and did not explain the yield variability so high, this result may not be applied to practical N management. However, this approach has potential for quantifying the grain yield response to N fertilizer rate under variable soil conditions and formulating the site-specific N prescription for the management of spatial yield variability in a field if sufficient data set is acquired for boundary line analysis.

  • The Kunang cave paleolithic site is located at Tanyang [$N37^{\circ}2'$, $128^{\circ}21'E$], Chungbuk Province, which is in the Central part of the Korean peninsula. The cave is developed at 312 amsl in a karstic mountainous area. The South Han River flows across this region and other caves can also be found near the river. The site was discovered in 1986 and excavated 3 times by the Chungbuk National University Museum until now. The cave was wellpreserved from modem human activities until the first discovery. The full length of the cave is estimated to be ca. 140 m. However, a spacious part up to 11 m from the entrance has been excavated. Eight lithological units are divided over the vertical profile at a depth of 5 m. Each unit is deposited in ascending order as follow: mud layer (Unit 9), lower complex (Unit 8) which is composed of angular blocks and fragments with a muddy matrix, lower travertine layer (Unit 7; flowstone), middle complex (Unit 6; cultural layer) which is composed of fragments with a muddy matrix, middle travertine layer (Unit 5; flowstone), yellowish muddy layer (Unit 4), upper complex (Unit 3; cultural layer) which has a similar composition to Unit 8. the upper travertine layer (Unit 2; flowstone), and finally surface soil layer (Unit 1). The most abundant vestiges in the cultural layers are the animal bones. They are small fractured pieces and mostly less than 3 cm in length. About 3,800 bone pieces from 25 animal species have been collected so far, 90 percent of them belonging to young deers. Previous archaeological study of these bone pieces shows thatprehistoric people occupied the cavenot for permanent dwelling but for temporary shelter during their seasonal hunting activity. More extensive studies of these bones together with pollen analysis are in progress to reconstruct the paleoenvironment of this cave. Only a single date (12,500 BP) obtained from a U-Th measurement of the upper travertine layer was previously available. In spite of the importance of the cave stratigraphy, there was no detail chronological investigation to establish the depositional process of the cultural layers and to understand the periodic structure of the cave strata, alternating travertine floor and complex layers. We have measured five 14C age dating (38900+/-1000, 36400+/-900, 40600+/-1600, more than 51000 and 52000 14C BP) using Seoul National University 14C AMS facility, conducted systematic process of the collagen extraction from bone fragments samples. From the result, we estimate that sedimentation rate of the cave earth is constant, and that the travertine layers, Unit 2 and Unit 3, was formed during MIS 5a(ca. 80 kBP) and MIS 5c (ca. 100 kBP) respectively. The Kunang Cave site is located at Yochonli of the region of Danyang in the mid-eastern part of Korea. This region is compased of limestones in which many caves were found and the Nam-han river flows meanderingly. The excavations were carried out three times in 1986, 1988, and 1998.

  • 우리나라의 주요 농업 생태계인 논에서 벼 생육기간 중의 CO₂와 에너지 교환을 정량화하고 분석(평가하기 위하여 미기상학적인 방법인 에디 공분산법으로 물질/에너지 플럭스를 측정하였다. 측정장소는 한반도 중부 지방의 대표적인 벼농사 지대인 경기도 이천시 부발읍 신원리 농업과학기술원 이천 시험지 플럭스 측정 지점 (37°18'20.34"N, 127°30'40.46"E)에서 수행되었다. 벼군락 장파복사의 방출은 대기로부터의 장파복사량보다 100Wm/sup -2/정도 많았다. 벼논에서 이앙 후 에너지 배분은 잠열 플럭스로 더 많이 배분되었고, 보웬 비는 0.3-0.7 정도였다. 이앙 후 대기중의 수증기 농도는 이 앙 전에 비하여 2gm/sup -3/ 정도 높아졌다. 벼논에서 CO₂ 농도는 야간이 780~820gm/sup -3/, 주간에는 약 650gm/sup -3/ 정도였다. 일사량 증가에 따른 이산화탄소 흡수량은 엽면적 지수가 높을수록 높았으며 특히 유수 형성기-출수기에서 가장 높았다.

  • Authors surveyed the ground water near the waste disposed from a fiberglass production factory to confirm the presence of glassfiber in the water and to determine the effect of sampling conditions and storage on the recovery of fibrous materials in the ground water. Sample was collected at every 4 hours for 48 hours consecutively. After finishing the 48 hours sample, water sampling was done from each tap after repeated turning on and off the water for 30 seconds at each time. Sample was collected in the two 1.5 liter polyethylene bottle after vigorously shaking the bottle with the same water several times with the flowing tap water. At each paired sample, one bottle was stored stand still at room temperature, and the other sample was filtered immediately after sampling. Water was filtered on the Mixed Cellulose Ester filter with negative pressure. Each sample was divided into upper and lower layer. The other bottle was stored at room temperature standstill for 7 days and filtered in the same fashion as the other pair of sample did. Each MCE filter was divided into 4 pieces and one piece was treated with acetone to make it transparent. Each prepared sample was observed by two researchers under the light and polarizing microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ra microanalysis. Fibers were classified by the morphology and polarizing pattern under the polarizing microscope, and count was done. 1. There was a significant fluctuation in number of the fibers, but there was no specific demonstrable pattern. 2. Non-polarizing fibers frequently disappeared after 7 days's storage. But cluster of fibers were found at the wall of the same container by scratching technique. 3. Polarizing fibers were usually found in between the filter and the manicure pasted area. Possible explanations for this phenomenon will be that either these fibers are very light or have electronic polarity. Hence, these fibers are not able to be attached on the surface of slide glass. 4. Under the scanning electron microscopic examination, the fibers which are not refractive under the light microscopy were identified as glassfiber. Other fibers which is refractive under the polarizing microscopy were identified as magnesium silicate fibers. It is strongly suggested that development of standardized method of sample collection and measurement of fibrous material in the water is needed.

  • 탄탈륨실리사이드 히터가 내장된 소자를 Ag 페이스트와 Au SBB(Stud Bump Bonding)를 이용하여 Au가 코팅 된 기판에 각각 접합 하였다. 전단 테스트와 전류를 흐르면서 열 성능을 측정하였다. Au 스터드 범프 본딩의 최적 플립칩 접합조건은 전단 후 파괴면 관찰하여 설정하였으며, 기판 온도를 $350^{\circ}C$, 소자 온도를 $250^{\circ}C$에서 하중을 300 g/bump 로 하여 접합하는 경우가 최적 조건이였다. 히터에 5 W 인가시 소자의 온도는 Ag 페이스트를 이용한 접합의 경우 최대 온도는 약 $50^{\circ}C$이었으며, Au 금속층을 갖고 있는 실리콘 기판에 Au 스터드 본딩으로 접합된 인 경우 약 $64^{\circ}C$를 나타내었다. 기판과의 접촉면적이 와이어본딩과 Au 스터드 범프 본딩 가 약 300배가 차이가 나는 경우 약 $14^{\circ}C$ 차이를 나타내었고, 전사모사를 통하여 접합면의 접촉저항이 중요한 이유임을 알 수 있었다.

  • 본 연구에서는 백금의 입자크기가 내구성과 활성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 상용 Pt/C의 열처리를 통해 백금 입자 크기를 $3.5{\sim}9\;nm$로 조절하였고, XRD와 TEM을 통해 이를 확인하였다. 촉매의 내구성 분석을 위해 가속 실험을 실시하였고, 촉매 활성 측정을 위해 산소환원반응 실험을 하였다. 백금의 입자크기를 증가시킬수록 내구성은 향상되었으나 촉매의 활성이 저하되었다. 즉 촉매의 내구성과 활성은 반비례관계가 성립된다는 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 저하된 촉매 활성과 내구성을 향상시키기 위해, 합금 촉매를 사용하였다.상용 Pt/C의 최대 전력 밀도는 약 $507.6\;mV/cm^2$ 이고, PtCo/C 합금촉매는 $585.8\;mV/cm^2$이었다. 전기화학적 표면적은 상용 Pt/C는 약 60%정도 감소하였고, PtCo/C 합금촉매는 약 24%정도의 감소율을 나타냈다. 따라서 백금의 입자 크기 조절과 합금화를 통해 백금의 내구성과 활성을 동시에 높일 수 있었다.

  • The purpose of this study was to determine the acute pulmonary toxicity of metallic silver nanoparticles (MSNPs, 20.30 nm in diameter). Acute pulmonary toxicity and body distribution of inhaled MSNPs in mice were evaluated using a nose-only exposure chamber (NOEC) system. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid analysis, Western blotting, histopathological changes, and silver burdens in various organs were determined in mice. Mice were exposed to MSNPs for 6 hrs. The mean concentration, total surface area, volume and mass concentrations in the NOEC were maintained at $1.93{\times}10^7$ particles/$cm^3$, $1.09{\times}10^{10}\;nm^2/cm^3$, $2.72{\times}10^{11}\;nm^3/cm^3$, and 2854.62 ${\mu}g/m^3$, respectively. Inhalation of MSPNs caused mild pulmonary toxicity with distribution of silver in various organs but the silver burdens decreased rapidly at 24-hrs post-exposure in the lung. Furthermore, inhaled MSNPs induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling in the lung. In summary, single inhaled MSNPs caused mild pulmonary toxicity, which was associated with activated MAPK signaling. Taken together, our results suggest that the inhalation toxicity of MSNPs should be carefully considered at the molecular level.

  • 전기체간스캔법(EIS, electro interstitial scan)은 미세 직류전류를 인체의 사지말단 또는 국소적 인가를 통해 인체의 전류 반응을 기준으로 인체의 질병 유무를 판별할 수 있는 비침습적인 질병 스크리닝 방법으로 가능성을 보이고 있다. 프랑스에서 개발된 DDFAO는 다채널 EIS로 다양한 질병, 특히 당뇨와 같은 내분비 기관의 진단에 효과적이라고 주장한다. 본 연구에서는 RC 팬텀 모델을 이용하여 DDFAO의 측정의 반복성과 민감도를 확인하고, 정상군과 당뇨 질환군을 대상으로 임상적 유용성을 검정하였다. 그 결과, 팬텀을 이용할 경우, 반복 측정시 값의 변화가 없고 팬텀 특성이 변화될 때 DDFAO의 측정 결과도 변화되었다. 그러나 임상 측정에 있어서 6개의 표면 전극을 이용하여 비침습적 방법으로 정상인과 당뇨병 환자의 구별은 어려울 뿐만 아니라 반복성과 정확성도 우수하지 않았다. 그러나, 이러한 문제점에도 불구하고 측정 방법의 편리성과 간편성으로 인해 국소적인 영역보다 인체 전반적인 특성을 파악하는 스크린 장비로써의 개발 가능성은 여전히 보이고 있기에 EIS에 대한 다양한 기반 연구가 필요하다.

  • This work is investigated for the catalytic decomposition of hydrogen iodide (HI). Platinum was used as active material by loading on $ZrO_2-SiO_2$ mixed oxide in HI decomposition reaction. To obtain high and stable conversion of hydrogen iodide in severe condition, it was required to improve catalytic activity. For this reason, a method increasing dispersion of platinum was proposed in this study. In order to get high dispersion of platinum, zirconia was incorporated in silica by sol-gel synthesis. Incorporating zirconia influence increasing platinum dispersion and BET surface area as well as decreasing deactivation of catalysts. It should be able to stably product hydrogen for a long time because of inhibitive deactivation. HI decomposition reaction was carried out under the condition of $450^{\circ}C$ and 1 atm in a fixed bed reactor. Catalysts analysis methods such as $N_2$ adsorption/desorption analysis, X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, ICP-AES and CO gas chemisorption were used to measurement of their physico-chemical properties.

  • 전주시에 소재한 아파트의 큰 방과 작은 방을 대상으로 실내 체적과 측정되는 라돈 농도와의 상관 관계를 분석하였다. 또한 실내의 라돈 농도를 측정하여 실내의 시간별 라돈 농도의 변화를 파악하고 이를 토대로 실내 라돈의 년간 피폭선량을 계산하였다. 본 연구를 위하여 각각 8개의 아파트 큰 방과 작은 방을 대상으로 라돈 농도를 측정하였으며, 큰 방의 평균 체적은 $31.59\;m^3$ 그리고 작은 방의 평균 체적은 $16.82\;m^3$이었다. 큰 방의 평균 라돈 농도는 $71.73\;Bq/m^3$, 작은 방의 평균 라돈 농도는 $108.51\;Bq/m^3$로 측정되어 실내 체적과 실내 라돈 농도는 반비례 관계로 나타났다. 밀폐된 실내 라돈 농도의 주 발생원이 건축자재임을 감안하여 건물 벽의 표면적을 체적으로 나누어 계측해 본 결과 표면적/체적의 비가 클수록 측정되는 실내 라돈 농도가 크게 나타났다. 실내 라돈 농도의 하루 중 시간에 따른 변화를 조사한 결과 오전 $8{\sim}10$시에 일 최고 농도($114.5\;Bq/m^3$)를 보였고, 오후 $2{\sim}4$시에 일 최저농도($67.7\;Bq/m^3$)를 나타냈으며, 하루 중 라돈 농도의 변화는 약 $46.8\;Bq/m^3$이었다. 8개 지점의 실내 라돈의 연간 피폭선량을 계산해 본 결과 0.3에서 2.16 mSv/yr사이로 나타나, 일부 아파트의 피폭선량이 국제방사선영향과학위원회(UNSCEAR)가 제시한 수치인 1.3 mSv/yr를 초과했다.
