This study was carried out to investigate the effects of pyroligneous acid on turfgrass growth and to propose usage for sustainable management on Korean golf course green. Each plot was treated with 0, 300, 500, and 800 acid to water solution. On all the plots, turfgrass growth increment and visual quality were measured at fried times. The data were subjected to paired samples t-test and corelation analysis. The summarized results are as follows; 1) Leaf growth increment, density, and root spread depth of turfgrass treated with 1: 500 and 1: 800 diluted pyroligneous acid were significantly superior to the control. Particularly, 1: 500 diluted solution was superior to the others. 2) Color, texture, and uniformity of turfgrass treated with 1: 500 and 1: 800 diluted pyroligneous acid were significantly superior to the control. Especially, 1: 500 diluted solution tended to be superior to the others. 3) There were no symptoms of disease in all plots treated with the diluted pyroligneous acid. 1 500 and 1: 800 diluted pyroligneous acid were not thought to trigger or promote disease. 4) Before and after investigating the effect of pyroligneous acid on turfgrass growth ,the soils were analyzed. In all treatments, the chemical properties of the soils did not change noticeably. The chemical properties of the soils might be not changed by the diluted pyroligneous acid treatments. 5) Considering the results mentioned above, 1: 500 diluted pyroligneous acid was the most effective. Though pyroligneous acid is an organic fertilizer and contains only a little nitrogen and phosphorus, 1: 500 diluted pyroligneous acid promoted turfgrass growth effectively. Thus this use might lead to a reduction in the amount of fertilizers used and result in ecologically responsive management of Korean golf courses.

Eccentric axial loading test was performed for concrete-encased columns using 800MPa steel and 100MPa concrete. To maximize the contribution of the high-strength steel, L-shaped steel sections were placed at four corners, and connected to each other by lattices, links, or battens. Compared to a H-section of the same area, the moment-arm and strain of the L-sections are increased. Also, the corner L-sections provide good lateral confinement to concrete core. The test results showed that the peak strength and effective flexural stiffness of the L-section columns were increased by more than 1.4 times those of the H-section column.

The behavior of de levels in rapid thermal annealed Fe-doped semi-insulating InP(100) was studied by photoinduced current transient spectrocopy(PICTS). In bulk InP, T2(Ec-0.24 eV), T3(Ec-0.30 eV) and T5(Ec-0.62 eV) traps were observed. After annealing the T2 trap was annihilated at 20$0^{\circ}C$ and recreated at 35$0^{\circ}C$. T3 trap was not affected below 40$0^{\circ}C$. With increasing temperature the concentration of T5 trap reduced and it was annihilated at 30$0^{\circ}C$. However the T1(Ec-0.16 eV) and T4(Ec-0.42 eV) traps were began to appear at 40$0^{\circ}C$and these concentrations were increased with annealing temperature. The T1 and T4 traps seem to be related to the isolated phosphorus vacancy( $V_{p}$) and $V_{p}$-indium antisite( $V_{p}$- $P_{in}$ ) or $V_{p}$-indium interstitial( $V_{p}$-I $n_{I}$) respectiely.respectiely.

The torsion tests in the range of $550~800^{\circ}C$, $5.0{\times}10^{-3}~5.0{\times}10^0/sec$ were performed to study the effects of strain rate$(\.{\varepsilon})$ and temperature(T) on the hot strength of Cu-Zn alloy. High temperature flow stresses of this alloy increased with increasing $\.{\varepsilon}$ and/or decreasing T, and than the more grain refinement could be obtained. The flow curves exhibited a peak followed by a steady steady state regime as a result of dynamic recrystallization. The hot strength dependence of $\.{\varepsilon}$ and T was described by a hyperbolic sine law, $\.{\varepsilon}=A(sinh0.017{\sigma})^4.81$exp(-216KJ/mol). Hot strength could be reduced at the arbitary condition, $\.{\varepsilon}$ and T, by constitutive parameter Z(Zenner-Hollomon parameter), $Z=A(sinh{\alpha}{\sigma})^n=\.{\varepsilon}$exp(Q/RT).

Granulite complexes in northern (the Nangnim block), eastern (ther Kimchaek zone of the Macheonryong belt) and southern (separate windows among upper Proterozoic structure such as the Wonsan, Nampo and Haeju granulites) parts of the Northern Korea are studied. Multistage deformations, metamorphic and migmatitic events, and granite formations are recognized in these granulite complexes. Mineral thermobarometry and fluid inclusion investigationss are used to establish the P-T evolutionary trends during prograde and retrograde metamorphic events. The peak metamorphism of granulites is characterized by temperature near $800^{\circ}C$ and pressure near 5.5-6 kb. Retrograde evolution includes cooling at constant pressure or with variable pressure ranging up to 7-8 kb. This P-T change corresponds to the transition from high to moderate or low geothermal gradient. The subsequent cooling is ac-companied by significant decompression to 3-4 kb.

A study was conducted to investigate the effect of induced molting on the relative weight and hormone levels of thyroid, ovary, and adrenal glands in spent laying hens. Three hundred sixty 77-wk-old, Babcock White hens were divided into 36 experimental units of 10 hens each and induced to molt for seven weeks. A diet containing 16% CP and 2,800 kcal ME/kg was fed ad libitum from 84 to 126 weeks of age. Thirty-six birds were randomly selected for blood collection and slaughtered at Pre-molt, 5% egg Production, Peak, and end Phase of the egg Production. Weights of the thyroid, ovary, adrenal glands, and plasma T3, T4, cortisol, and estradiol contents were measured at each stage. Weight of the thyroid reached its highest level at 5% e99 Production stage. The ovary weight was greatly reduced during molting, but started to increase after induced molting until the end of the egg Production Phase (P<0.05). Plasma T3,T4 and cortisol were found to be the highest at the start of the Post-molt Production stage, but reached their minimum at the end Phase of e99 Production. Plasma estradiol was the lowest at the 5% egg Production stage. The Present study demonstrated that molting is a complex Process that require the involvement of endocrine glands to trigger their specific hormones, which play a key role in molt induction.

Red yeast rice has been extensively used as food and traditional medicine for thousands of years in East Asian countries. It is produced by the fermentation of a particular yeast (in general, Monascus purpureus) as rice and various cereals (barley, soybean, etc.). Monascus sp. produces many secondary metabolites during its growth, including pigments, monacolins, and γ-aminobutyric acid. Some metabolites―specifically, monacolin K, γ-aminobutyric acid, dimerumic acid, and monascus pigments―have been reported to lower cholesterol and blood pressure while showing anti-obesity effects. In this study, we investigated the anti-obesity effect of ethanol extract from red yeast barley (RYB) fermented with Monascus sp. BHN-MK 2 on 3T3-L1 cells. The anti-obesity effects of RYB extract were examined: its lipid accumulation inhibitory effect was tested by Oil Red O staining, and obesity-related mRNA expression levels were tested by real-time RT-PCR in MDI stimulated 3T3-L1 cells. The intracellular lipid content of MDI-stimulated 3T3-L1 cells decreased significantly to 5.04%, 12.24%, and 23.52% in response to 200, 400, and 800 ㎍/ml RYB, respectively. Moreovers, we evaluated that RYB extract significantly downregulated the expression of C/EBPα, SREBP-1, and PPAR-γ gene in a dose-dependent manner. As a result, red yeast barley ethanol extracts exerted the strongest anti-obesity effects. Also, the results indicate that red yeast barley could be used as a functional anti-obesity food material.

The purpose of this study is to change plant growth according to the light quantity of LED light source and to standardize plant factories technology according to the optimal LED light range. Growth was relatively stable at the 1,400 lx and 1,600 lx intensities, and growth continued with increasing light intensity, but growth slowed down with growth without leaves (Ed- I don't understand). The growth characteristics at 400 lx to 800 lx were sustained to some extent during the experimental period, but the growth of the larvae was maintained until the 7th day and the growth of leaves was not developed. From 1,000 lx to 1,400 lx, brightness, leaf growth and daily growth increased, and the growth cycle exhibited a repeating cycle of growth and slowdown. In addition, 1,600 lx and 1,800 lx showed similar growth to that at 1,400 lx, but leaf growth was high. However, at 1,800 lx, the growth was slightly higher than at 1,400lx and it slowed down over time. In addition, the stronger the light, the higher the temperature around the plant and the greater the dryness of the leaves due to the heat emitted from the light source.

Fishery production of topshell in Cheju-do has been rapidly decreased in the last few years. To investigate the origin of this problem and estimate maximum sustainable yield (MSY) and catch per unit effort (CPUE) of topshell in Cheju-do, a survey has been done ysing the statistical data for 19 years (1968-1986) of topshell production in Cheju-do and data for 3 yea.5 (1984-1986) from an fishery village, Tonggui-ri, Pukcheju-gun, Cheju-do. Maximum sustainable yield of topshell in Cheju-do assumed to be 2,500-2,800 metric tons(M/T) per year. The annual fishery productions of topshell from 1982 to 1986 were 3,368, 3,649, 3,308, 3,136, and 1,400 M/T, respectively. These results show that topshell had been over-fished during 1982 to 1985. Because of the over-fishing, production sharply decreased down to 1,400 M/T in 1986. Total annual production of topshell in Tonggui-ri is a little less than one Percent of that of Cheju-do. To achieve this production, over the half of resistered diving women in this village have been worked. To estimate catch per unit effort of topshell in Cheju-do, it seems better to use the data which is the number of diving women who have been worked for certain period of time than the number of working days in the same period of time.
