수리적인 환경 요인(조석, 바람 등)에 따른 하계 서남극 킹조지섬 마리안 소만의 수층 특성과 부유물질 분산을 이해하기 위해 내만에 유빙이 점유했던 시기에 30분 간격으로 CTDT연속 관측을 수행하였고 공간적인 표층 해수의 특성(수온과 염분)과 부유물질농도가 측정되었다. 소만 중앙의 수층은 탁도의 관점에서 크게 1)저온 ${\cdot}$ 저염 ${\cdot}$ 고탁도의 표층 플름과 2)고온 ${\cdot}$ 고염 ${\cdot}$ 저탁도의 맥스웰 만 유입수로 나누어진다. 소만 안쪽의 빙벽 앞과는 달리 빙하기저부 유출에 의한 담수성 수층이 나타나지 않았다. 고온의 맥스웰 만 표층수와 조수빙하/유빙의 열적 융빙은 표층 혼합층을 발달시키며 특히 소만 내 유빙의 점유와 거동으로 인해 맥스웰 만 유입수의 수층 특성이 불안정해진다. 이러한 수층의 불안정으로 인해 조석주기에 따른 맥스웰 만 유입수와 표층 플름의 거동은 나타나지 않았다. 소만 북부 연안에 나타나는 표층 플름에 비해 고온 ${\cdot}$ 고염 ${\cdot}$ 고탁도 표층 플름은 강한 북서풍 계열의 바람으로 위버 반도 서부 연안을 따라 중앙 분지로 유입되는 연안류이다. 표층 플름의 육성기원 쇄설물은 주로 급경사 연안의 빙벽 가장자리와 일부 해안가의 융설수류로부터 유입되며 조석과 바람에 의해 분산되고 조절된다. 특히 대조차 시기의 북서풍은 고탁도의 표층 플름을 내만에 체류시키며 소만 분지에 육성기원 쇄설성입자의 퇴적을 증가시킨다.

본 연구에서는 MBR 공정 내 폭기조에서 순산소 용해와 일반 공기 폭기의 효율에 대한 비교·평가를 통해 순산소의 MBR 공정 적용성에 대해 평가 하였다. 순산소 장치에 의한 유기물 및 암모니아 산화 여부에 대해 평가하였으며, 실폐수(음식물류 폐기물의 혐기성소화 유출수) 적용 과포화산소용해 효율 평가를 진행하였다. 순산소용해와 일반공기폭기 방법의 SCOD, 암모니아 제거율과 속도는 비슷하였다. 하지만, 순산소 용해에 의한 미생물 수율이 일반공기폭기법에 의한 미생물 수율보다 약 0.03 g MLSS-produced/g SCOD-removed 낮아 잉여슬러지 처리 비용이 감소될 수 있을 것이라 판단된다. 음식물류 폐기물의 혐기성 소화 유출수의 고농도 유기물 (4,000 mg/L) 및 암모니아 (1,400 mg/L)의 제거율을 순산소용해와 일반공기폭기법을 비교한 결과, 순산소 용해기가 일반공기폭기법에 비해 유기물 제거율이 약 13% 가량 더 높게 평가되었다. 또한, MLSS의 경우 일반공기폭기법이 순산소장치에 비해 0.3배가량 높았다. 이는, 순산소장치의 경우 폭기조 내에 용존산소가 충분히 유지, 공급되기 때문에 슬러지 자산화가 고도로 진행된 결과로 판단되었다. 따라서, 고농도 유기물을 함유한 폐수 처리를 위한 방법으로는 기존에 많이 사용되었던 일반공기폭기법보다 순산소장치를 활용하는 것이 경제적인 면에서 더 유리할 것으로 판단되었다.

The objectives of this study were to determine the highest inclusion of licury (Syagrus coronate) cake in the diet of growing Boer goats without adverse effects on intake and digestibility and to determine its effects on ingestive behavior and physiological responses. Twenty entire, one year old 3/4 Boer goats, 18.1 kg (DS = 2.2) average body weight (BW), were allocated to dietary treatments in a completely randomized design. Each animal was confined in a $1.0\;m^2$ pen with a suspended floor and given ad libitum access to clean, fresh water. Diets were formulated to meet NRC (2007) requirements and the ingredients were: 50% of Tifton-85 (Cynodon sp.) hay, corn meal, soybean meal, mineral and vitamin premix, and licury cake. The treatments were: i) no addition of licury cake to the diet, ii) 15% (DM basis) addition of licury cake, iii) 30% licury cake and, iv) 45% licury cake. The experiment lasted for 17 days; the first 10 days were used to adapt the animals to the diets and facilities. The inclusion of licury cake increased the fiber concentration of the diets; however, there was no effect on either dry matter (DM) or organic matter (OM) intake. There was a linear increase (p<0.05) in the EE content of the diet as the addition of licury cake increased; however, EE intake did not differ (p>0.05) between treatments. The digestibility of non-fibrous carbohydrates (NFC) decreased with increasing inclusion of licury cake, as did NFC intake. The efficiency of ingestion of DM and NDF presented a negative quadratic effect with the inclusion of licury cake. Results from this study indicate that licury cake can be fed to goats at up to 45% of the diet without adverse effects on either intake or digestibility.

Background: Little is known about how chemical water quality is associated with ecological stream health in relation to landuse patterns in a watershed. We evaluated spatial characteristics of water quality characteristics and the ecological health of Dongjin-River basin, Korea in relation to regional landuse pattern. The ecological health was assessed by the multi-metric model of Index of Biological Integrity (IBI), and the water chemistry data were compared with values obtained from the health model. Results: Nutrient and organic matter pollution in Dongjin-River basin, Korea was influenced by land use pattern and the major point sources, so nutrients of TN and TP increased abruptly in Site 4 (Jeongeup Stream), which is directly influenced by wastewater treatment plants along with values of electric conductivity (EC), bacterial number, and sestonic chlorophyll-a. Similar results are shown in the downstream (S7) of Dongjin River. The degradation of chemical water quality in the downstream resulted in greater impairment of the ecological health, and these were also closely associated with the landuse pattern. Forest region had low nutrients (N, P), organic matter, and ionic content (as the EC), whereas urban and agricultural regions had opposite in the parameters. Linear regression analysis of the landuse (arable land; $A_L$) on chemicals indicated that values of $A_L$ had positive linear relations with TP ($R^2=0.643$, p < 0.01), TN ($R^2=0.502$, p < 0.05), BOD ($R^2=0.739$, p < 0.01), and suspended solids (SS; ($R^2=0.866$, p < 0.01), and a negative relation with TDN:TDP ratios ($R^2=0.719$, p < 0.01). Conclusions: Chemical factors were closely associated with land use pattern in the watershed, and these factors influenced the ecological health, based on the multimetric fish IBI model. Overall, the impairments of water chemistry and the ecological health in Dongjin-River basin were mainly attributes to point-sources and land-use patterns.

This study was performed to understand the behavior and source characteristics of particulate trace metals in Daegu area. To do this, total of 84 samples had been collected from January to December 1999. TSP (total suspended particulate matter) and PM-10(particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters less 10${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) were collected by filters on portable air sampler, and in TSP and PM-10 were analyzed by ICP(Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectrometer) after preliminary treatment. The results were follow as: first, annul means of TSP and PM-10 concentration were 123 and 69$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎤ respectively. The concentration of TSP adn PM-10 were highest in winter season compared to other seasons. Second, the concentration of Al, Fe, Mn were higher in TSP than in PM-10, indicating that these metals are generally associate with natural contributions. Third, a hierarchical clustering technique was used to group 9 metals. The results from the cluster analysis of TSP and PM-10 shows a similar clustering pattern : Fe, Al in a group and the rest of the metals such as Ni, Cr, As, Mn, Cd, Pb, Zn in the other group. One group of metal such as Fe, Al is associated with natural sources such as soil and dust. The other is closely related to urban anthropogenic sources such as fuel combustion, incineration, and refuse burning, Finally, using Al as a reference element, enrichment factors were used for identifying the major particulate contributors. The enrichment factors of Al. Fe<10 (standard value of enrichment factor) were considered to have a significant dust and soil source and termed nonenriched. Ni, Cr, As, Mn, Cd, Pb, Zn》10 is enriched and has a significant which is contributed by athropogenic sources.

The suspended particulate matter(PM) was measured in subway tunnel of Seoul Line 1 to 9 in order to evaluate the pollution degree and characteristics of the PM in the subway tunnel. Also, to analyze the effect of outdoor aerosol concentration on the PM concentration of subway tunnels, the ambient PM concentration around the subway station was extracted by spatial analysis using $PM_{10}$ data of Seoul air pollution monitoring network. Finally, in order to understand pollution pattern in the Seoul subway tunnels, cluster analysis was performed based on input data set such as PM levels in tunnel, tunnel depth, length, curvature radius, outdoor ambient air pollution levels and so on. The average concentration of $PM_{10}$, $PM_{2.5}$, and $PM_1$ on subway tunnels were $98.0{\pm}37.4$, $78.4{\pm}28.7$, and $56.9{\pm}19.2{\mu}g/m^3$, respectively. As a result of the cluster analysis, tunnels from Seoul subway Line-1 to Line-9 were classified into five classes, and the concentrations and physical properties of the tunnels were compared. This study can provide a method to reduce PM concentration in tunnel for each pollution pattern and provide basic information about air quality control in Seoul subway tunnel.

Descriptive statistics methods were used to study the spatiotemporal variations and sources of ambient particulate matter ($PM_{10}$) in Luzhou, China. The analyzed datasets were collected from four national air quality monitoring stations: Jiushi (S1), Xiaoshi (S2), Zhongshan (S3), Lantian (S4) over the period of 2003-2012. This city was subjected serious $PM_{10}$ pollution, and the long-term annual average $PM_{10}$ concentrations varied from 76 to $136{\mu}g/m^3$. The maximum concentration was more than 3-fold of the annual average ($40{\mu}g/m^3$) issued by EPA-China for the ambient air quality. General temporal pattern was characterized by high concentrations in winter and low concentrations in summer, and general spatial gradient was in the reduction order of S2 > S4 > S3 > S1, which were both due to different particulate contributors and special meteorological conditions. The source apportionment indicated that vehicular emissions, road dusts, coal burning and chemical dusts were the major contributors of the identified $PM_{10}$ pollution, and the vehicular emissions and the road wear re-suspended particles dominated the heavy $PM_{10}$ pollution in recent years. Two other potential sources, agricultural and celebration activities could decrease the air quality in a short term. Finally, some corresponding suggestions and measures were provided to improve the air quality.

동해 연안에 위치한 대진, 갈남, 포항, 울산 등 4개 지역의 연안역을 대상으로 1994년 7월부터 1995년 4월까지 계절별로 4회에 걸쳐서 영양염과 유기물질의 분포에 관련된 환경요인, 영양염류, 부유성 유기물질 및 엽록소 함량 등을 조사하였다. BOD는 울산 처용암이 모든 정점 중에서 가장 높게 나타났으며, 영양염류의 농도는 근처에 오염원이 많은 포항과 울산의 처용암에서 전 조사기간 동안에 걸쳐 전반적으로 높았다. 특히, 처용암은 조사된 모든 영양염의 값이 월등히 높아 고도의 과영양해역임이 판명되었다. 울산의 장생포 지역도 비교적 높은 수치를 나타내 부영양해역에 속하는 것으로 나타났다. 부유성유기물질은 3~10${\mu}m$ 크기의 입자가 총부피의 70%를 차지하였다. 부유성 유기물질은 주변 도시와 공단으로부터 많은 오폐수가 유입되는 포항과 울산에서 높은 값을 나타내었는데 이는 주로 주변으로부터 유입되는 오폐수의 영향일 것으로 사료된다.

Ultrafiltration membranes have several advantages over conventional drinking-water treatment. However, this technology presents major limitations, such as irreversible fouling and low removal of natural organic matter. Fouling depends heavily on the raw-water quality as well as on the operating conditions of the process, including flux, permeate recovery, pre-treatment, chemical cleaning, and backwashing. Starting with the premise that the optimisation of operating variables can improve membrane performance, different experiments were conducted in a pilot plant located in Granada (Spain). Several combinations of permeate and backwashing flow rates, backwashing frequencies, and aeration flow rates were tested for low-quality water coming from Genil River with the following results: the effluent quality did not depend on the combination of operating conditions chosen; and the membrane was effective for the removal of microorganisms, turbidity and suspended solids but the yields for the removal of dissolved organic carbon were extremely low. In addition, the threshold transmembrane pressure (-0.7 bar) was reached within a few hours and it was difficult to recover due to the low efficiency of the chemical cleanings. Moreover, greater transmembrane pressure due to fouling also increased the energy consumption, and it was not possible to lower it without compromising the permeate recovery. Finally, the intensification of aeration contributed positively to lengthening the operation times but again raised energy consumption. In light of these findings, the feasibility of ultrafiltration as a single treatment is questioned for low-quality influents.
