1981년 9월, 1982년 3월 및 1983년 4월에 한반도 남동해역 대륙붕에서 표층퇴적물과 부유물표품을 채취하였다. 부유물 함량 분포에 의하면 세립한 부유물질은 연안의 내 대륙붕에 국한되어 연안에 평행하게 대상으로 분포하여 현생의 세립퇴적물이 내 대륙붕 지역에 국한되고 있음을 시사하고 있다. 그러나 외 대륙붕과 붕단에 분포하는 사질퇴적물은 니질 함량(<5%)이 매우 낮다. 이러한 조립질 퇴적물은 해수면이 낮았던 (약 -152m${\pm}$) 플라이스토세 (Pleistocene) 빙기에 집적된 "잔류"퇴적물(고해빈퇴적물) 로 사료된다. 현세 해수면 상승에 따른 해침현상이 일어나고 해안선의 전진이 빠르게 일어나게 되어 외 대륙붕의 사질물질이 재 분포 되는 경우가 대단히 약하였으며 일시적으로 강한 연안류 등에 의해 현지성(in situ) 재동작용을 받았을 것이다. 결과적으로 해침현상에 따른 가장 큰 영향은 사립물질의 분급작용이 가속된 것이고, 최소한 세립물질이 제거 (winnowing out)되는 작용이 일어났을 것이다.

Continuous removal of organic matters (CROM) using freshwater bivalve Anodonta woodiana was operated to evaluate the effect of water current on the water quality improvement (clearance) of eutrophic lake. The CROM system comprised three treatment steps such as flow control, treatment and analysis, and operated at the two different currents ($24L\;h^{-1}$ and $48L\;h^{-1}$) with mussels at density of $312.5indiv.\;m^{-2}$ for 12 consecutive days. Water quality including suspended solids (SS) and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) was daily measured at the same time. Results indicate that although both the system strongly decreased the concentration of SS and chl-a, a slow CROM system was more effective to diminish the SS contents than a fast CROM system; 82% and 66%, respectively (ANOVA, P<0.0001). Clearance rates, based on chl-a, were also significantly higher in a slow system than a fast system (ANOVA, P<0.0001), although the mussel mortality was conversely. In both systems, there showed a remarkable excretion of dissolved inorganic nutrients (i.e. $NH_3-N$ and $PO_4-P$), while a slow CROM system was higher than a fast system, significantly (ANOVA, P<0.0001). Therefore, it may suggest that a slow current CROM system is more suitable to maximize the efficacy of water quality improvement, but further study is needed to diminish the mortality of mussel and to reuse the nutrient released during the operation.

This study was based on water quality data of the Lake Doam watershed, monitored from 2010 to 2013 at eight different sites with multiple physiochemical parameters. The dataset was divided into two sub-datasets, namely, non-rainy and rainy. Principal component analysis (PCA) and factor analysis (FA) techniques were applied to evaluate seasonal correlations of water quality parameters and extract the most significant parameters influencing stream water quality. The first five principal components identified by PCA techniques explained greater than 80% of the total variance for both datasets. PCA and FA results indicated that total nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, total phosphorus, and dissolved inorganic phosphorus were the most significant parameters under the non-rainy condition. This indicates that organic and inorganic pollutants loads in the streams can be related to discharges from point sources (domestic discharges) and non-point sources (agriculture, forest) of pollution. During the rainy period, turbidity, suspended solids, nitrate nitrogen, and dissolved inorganic phosphorus were identified as the most significant parameters. Physical parameters, suspended solids, and turbidity, are related to soil erosion and runoff from the basin. Organic and inorganic pollutants during the rainy period can be linked to decayed matters, manure, and inorganic fertilizers used in farming. Thus, the results of this study suggest that principal component analysis techniques are useful for analysis and interpretation of data and identification of pollution factors, which are valuable for understanding seasonal variations in water quality for effective management.

본 연구에서는 내부에 여재순환용 스크루가 장착된 여과장치에 물보다 비중이 작은 여재를 충진한 후 오수를 상향류로 유입하였다. 반응기 내부의 여재가 스크루에 의해 상부에서 하부로 오수의 흐름에 반하여 원활히 순환되는지 확인하였으며 이 과정에서 여과장치에 의한 오염물질의 제거양상을 살펴보았다. 실험결과 내부 스크루에 의한 여재의 안정적인 순환을 확인할 수 있었으며, 여재 순환주기에 따른 오염물질의 제거효율은 순환주기가 길어질수록 여과작용이 원활히 진행되어 입자상 물질과 유기물질이 효과적으로 제거하는 것으로 나타났다. 최대 처리효율은 SS, CODmn, 그리고 T-P순으로 각각 96%, 72%, 65%를 보였으며, 이는 여재가 순환되지 않는 경우보다 각각 52.38%, 43.14%, 118.12%의 처리효율이 개선되는 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This study investigated the characteristic of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) process to treat the sewage having low carbon/nitrogen ratio (Biochemical oxygen demand ($BOD_5$):Total nitrogen (T-N), 4.5:1) in sequencing batch reactor (SBR). The removal efficiency of $BOD_5$, suspended solid (SS), T-N and phosphorus ($PO_4{^{3-}}$-P) were 92.6%, 64.3% and 90.1%. Concentration and size of AGS were changed in proportion to the organic matters and nitrogen concentration of the influent (Concentration and size of AGS: 1,700-3,000 mg/L, 0.5-1.0 mm). Mixed liquor suspended solid (MLSS) also changed with the concentration of AGS (MLSS: 2,000-3,500 mg/L). When the settling time was shortened from 15 min to 10 min, size and shape of AGS were maintained (Size of AGS: 1.0-1.5 mm). In addition, the concentration of AGS and MLSS increased (Concentration of AGS: 3,500 mg/L, MLSS: 4,000 mg/L). Concentration, size and shape of AGS were affected the settling time of the reactor more than the concentration of organic matter and nitrogen in the influent. In the results of removal efficiency and changes in AGS, we confirmed that the SBR process using AGS can be used to treat the sewage having low carbon/nitrogen ratio by applying short settling time.

태평양 적도 부근에 위치한 팔라우섬과 통가섬 주변 연안해역은 산호초와 맹그로브 및 해초지로 구성된 해역이다. 특히, 산호초 서식지의 표층 해수의 광특성을 이해하는 것은 원격탐사 기반의 서식지 분류의 정확도를 높이고, 열대해역 생태계 특성을 파악하는 데에 도움이 된다. 본 연구에서는 팔라우섬과 통가섬 산호초 서식지의 해수 특성을 파악하고자 해수 표면의 파장별 분광특성 자료를 수집하고, 해수 표층의 부유물 농도, 흡광계수 및 원격반사도 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 부유물 농도 분석 결과에 의거 위성자료 기반 부유물 농도 추정 경험적 알고리즘을 개발 및 검증하였으며, 555, 625, 660 nm 세 개 밴드를 이용한 원격반사도 밴드비와 부유물 농도의 결정계수가 0.98로 높은 상관관계를 보였다. 이와 같이 열대해역의 산호초 서식지는 해양광학적으로 빈영양성의 CASE-I 해수 성향이 강하며, 현장자료의 지속적인 수집과 분석을 이용한 모니터링이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

The suspended particulate matters have been collected on membrane filters and glass fiber filters by an 8-stage cascade impactor for 2 years (Sep. 2005${\sim}$Sep. 2007) in Kyung Hee University-Global Campus located on the border of Yongin and Suwon. The 20 chemical species (Al, Mn, Si, Fe, Cu, Pb, Cr, Ni, V, Cd, Ba, $Na^+$, ${NH_4}^+$, $K^+$, $Mg^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Cl^-$, ${NO_3}^-$, and ${SO_4}^{2-}$) were analyzed by an ICP-AES and an IC after performing proper pre-treatments of each sample filter. Based on these chemical information, the PMF receptor model was applied to identify the source of ambient size-by-size particulate matters. The receptor modeling is the one of the statistical methods to achieve resonable air pollution management strategies. A total of 10 sources was identified in 9 size-ranges such as long-range transport, secondary aerosol, $NH_{4}NO_{3}$ related source, coal combustion, sea-salt, soil, oil combustion, auto emission, incineration, and biomass burning. Especially, the secondary aerosol source assorted in fine and coarse modes was intensively studied.

Characteristics of organic matters (OM) in wastewater and the removal efficiencies were investigated using the influent and the effluent samples collected from 21 wastewater treatment plants. The OM characteristics investigated included biodegradability, humic content, specific UV absorbance (SUVA), the distribution percentage of refractory OM (R-OM), and synchronous fluorescence spectra. The types of wastewater (sewage, livestock waste/night soils, industrial waste) were easily distinguished by comparing the synchronous fluorescence spectra of the influent wastewater. The prominent peak of protein-like fluorescence (PLF) was observed for livestock waste/night soils whereas sewage exhibited a unique fluorescence peak at a wavelength of 370 nm. Irrespective of the wastewater types, the distribution percentage of R-OM increased from the influent to the effluent. Livestock waste/night soils showed the highest removal efficiency among all the three types of wastewater. There was no statistical difference of the removal efficiency between a traditional activated sludge and biological advanced treatment processes. Removal efficiency based on dissolved organic carbon DOC presented good correlations with the distribution percentage of R-OM and fulvic-like fluorescence (FLF) of the influent. The prediction for DOC removal efficiency was improved by using multiple regression analyses based on some selected OM characteristics and mixed liquid suspended solid (MLSS).

Air suspedned particulates are the most serious factor among air pollutants in Seoul and their extracts have been revealed to be pulmonary carcinogenes. Air particulates were collected at a site representative of the high traffic area of Seoul from December 1993 to May 1994. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitroarenes in organic extracts of air particulates were determined by gas chromatography and mutagenicity of particle extracts was evaluated by the pre-incubation procedure with Salmonella typhirnurium TA98 and TA 98NR. The average concentration of total suspended particulates and inhalable (less than 10 $\mu$m) particulates were 169.63 $\mu g/m^3$, 141.92 $\mu g/m^3$, respectively. The relative contribution of organic matters was highest in neutral fraction and was lowest in basic fraction. Among identified 20 PAHs, the level of PAHs with 4-benzen ring i.e., pyrene, benzo(a)anthracene and chrysene were much higher than the PAHs with higher ring numbers. The mutagenicity of air particulates was much higher in the presence of rat liver microsomai fraction (S9 mixture) than that observed in its absence, which indicates that air particulates contained both direct and indirect mutagens. Nitroarenes in this study were not almost detected but mutagenicity of their fraction was higher. These results are represent to research for the identification of nitroarenes in the forward study.
