This study was carried out to investigate the features of air pollutants in rainwater and trace their transported trajectories from other countries. Chemical analysis data of rainwater and suspended particulates collected at Seoul, Kanghwa, and Taean for three years were used to evaluate the effects of long-range transport of air pollutants. Scavenging theory on washout and rainout effect during a rainy period was applied to estimate whether pollutants in the precipitation were long-range transported or not. On the other hand, precipitation weighted surface wind were evaluated to analyze the effect from local sources on atmospheric concentrations. As a result, contribution of air pollutants caused by anthropogenic sources in the precipitation which was identified to be long range transported was confirmed significantly high and trajectory of these pollutants was to be equivalent to 850mb isobar. Although concentration of acidifying components increased in the precipitation, neutralization by alkaline soil components such as $Ca^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ was conspicuous especially during Yellow-sand period.

파쇄매질에서 불규칙한 양상의 유체유동과 용질이동의 모의를 위하여 연속체 모델을 대체하는 분리단열망 모델의 이용이 확산되고 있다. 분리단열망 모델은 단열내 유량이 단열 간극의 삼승에 비례한다는 삼승법칙과 매질이 이러한 단열의 통계적 조합으로 구성된다는 가정에 바탕을 두고 있다. 본 연구는 단열교차점에서 삼승법칙의 유효성이 유지될 수 있는가를 평가하기 위하여 경계좌표계 변환법을 이용하여 단열간 교차각과 단열에서 유량분포의 관계를 분석하였다. 단열 교차각의 변화에 따른 유선의 분포에 대한 분석을 통하여 단열의 기하학적 형태가 단열의 유량분포에 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. 따라서, 삼승법칙에 대한 엄밀한 수치적 실험적 검증이 필요하다.

To investigate the source-receptor relationships aerosol model has been used to simulate the distribution behavior of the yellow sand. Data for meteorological fields were obtained by Meso-scale Analysis and Prediction Model System/Seoul National University (MAPMS/SNU) for five days (10-14 April 1988). To obtain the distributions of concentration of yellow sand,the aerosol model has been modified to allow quantifications of relative concentration distributions of yellow sand. Source regions of yellow sand were delineated by soil maps of China and emission rate as a function of wind stress(Westphal et al., 1987). Using 3-dimensional wind fields the backward trajectories from 3 receptor grids at the layer of .sigma. =0.95, 0.9, 0.85, 0.8 were calculated. In order to facilitate quantitative assessment of source-receptor relationships, it was assumed that the perturbations in along-trajectory and cross-trajectory proceed linearly with time, in accord with Gaussian distribution characteristics. On the basis of this assumption, the probability fields were calculated from every grid point with source strength 1. Using these probability fields and emission retes, the potential contributions of upstream sources along the trajectories were estimated. The results of this study indicate that the application of trajectory modeling is useful in investigating the quantitative relationship between source and receptor regions.

During the Viet Nam war, A Luoi located in Thua Thien Hue Province was heavily sprayed herbicides by the Ranch Hand Operation of U.S.A force (549.274 gallons). After 30 years of knocking the operation off, Dioxin has still contaminated on environment and human body in A Luoi valley. The results of the study show that there is an epidemiological relationship between AO/Dioxin exposure and increasing rate of reproductive anomalies and birth defects (the rate of reproductive anomalies including congenital deformities after the war during 10-year and 25-year is higher than that before the war from 1.5 to 4 times). The study found that the highest rate of reproductive anomalies is spontaneous abortion. The average is premature death and congenital deformities, and the lowest rate is dead foetus and hydratidiform mole. The results of the primary assessment suggested that Dioxin transport from environment to human body through the food chain exposed by Dioxin such as fish, chicken, duck. A mitigation plan for residual dioxin contamination from Agent Orange Hervicides is requeste indispensable to inhabitants in Aluoi District.

In order to fully understand the chemical properties of Asian dust particles, especially their transformation and aging processes, it is desirable to investigate the nature of original sands collected at local source areas in China. This study presents the detailed properties of sands collected at four different desert regions (Yinchuan, Wuwei, Dulan, and Yanchi) in China. Most of sands have irregular shape with yellowish coloration, whereas some of them show peculiar colors. The relative size distribution of sands collected at Yinchuan, Wuwei, and Dulan deserts exhibits monomodal with the maximum level between 200 and $300{\mu}$, whereas that of Yanchi desert is formed between 100 and $200{\mu}$. The mass concentration ratio of each element to that of Si (Z/Si) determined by PIXE analysis has a tendency towards higher Z/Si ratios for soil derived elements. It was possible to visually reconstruct the elemental maps on the surface of individual sands by XRF microprobe technique. In addition, the multielemental mass concentration could be quantitatively calculated for numerous spots of desert sands.

자동 TDR 시스템을 이용하여 약 0.54 헥타 크기의 2개 현장에서 오염물질의 거동을 모니터링하였다. 오염물질의 수직적 플륨을 관측하기 위하여 추적자로서 $CaCl_2$를 순간주입(Pulse)방식으로 투입하였으며 오염물질 이동시간의 공간적 이질성과 현장규모의 운송모델 개념을 파악하기 위하여 횡방향으로 24개 지점과 5개의 다른 깊이, 즉 120개 지점에 50 cm 길이의 TDR 탐사침을 설치하여 잔존수 농도를 측정하였다. TDR에 의해 관측된 전기전도도를 검정하기 위하여 3가지의 다른 방법을 사용하였다. 깊이별 24개 지점에서 얻어진 평균 BTC 자료를 이용하여 CDE 모델과 CLT 모델의 파라미터를 추정한 결과 TDR 방법은 실내실험 뿐만아니라 현장에서의 오염물질 거동 분석에 유용하다는 결론을 얻었다. 또한 3가지 검정방법은 BTC 모양과 특히 오염물질의 첨두운송시간과 관련된 파라미터에 큰 영향을 미치지 않으며 사용된 검정방법 중 SLM 방법이 수평적으로 설치된 TDR 탐사침에 대해서 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서 사용된 바이오폴리머는 미생물로부터 추출한 ${\beta}$-glucan 및 xanthan gum 이 주성분인 친환경 신소재이며, 토양에 처리하면 강도 증진을 통한 제방의 침식 및 유실 감소뿐만 아니라 토양 내 수분보유력을 증가시키는 것으로 보고되어 있다. 그러나 바이오폴리머가 제방에 적용되었을 때 주변 식생에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 미흡한 상황이다. 본 연구는 가뭄 조건에서 토양 내 바이오폴리머 혼합 유무에 따라 Camelina sativa L. (Camelina)의 생육에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 각각 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1%의 바이오폴리머가 혼합된 토양에서 발아로부터 25일간 가뭄 처리 후 표현형을 관찰한 결과, 혼합된 바이오폴리머 농도가 높을수록 가뭄 피해가 감소하였다. 특히 25일 동안의 가뭄 처리된 0.5% 바이오폴리머 혼합구에서 신장, 엽장, 엽폭이 대조구 보다 각각 약 30, 70, 170% 증가하였다. 이후 재급수를 통한 바이오폴리머 혼합구의 회복률 또한 약 80% 높게 나타났다. 식물의 근권 발달을 보기 위해 20일 동안 가뭄을 처리하였으며, 대조구에 비해 바이오폴리머 혼합구에서 측근 형성 및 발달이 약 40% 감소한 것을 확인하였다. Camelina에 가뭄 처리하여 기공전도도, 전해질 유출도, 상대적 수분함량 등 생리적 반응을 조사한 결과, 바이오폴리머의 혼합이 가뭄으로 인한 피해를 각각 약 50, 70, 50% 감소시켰다. 바이오폴리머가 가뭄 조건 하에서 식물의 생장에 미치는 영향을 분자수준에서 알아보기 위해 Reverse Transcription- Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR)을 통한 유전자 발현양상을 분석하였다. 수분수송 관련 유전자 (aquaporin)인 PIP1;4, 2;1, 2;6 및 TIP1;2, 2;1 발현이 바이오폴리머 혼합구 및 가뭄 처리된 Camelina 잎에서 더 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 종합하였을 때, 바이오폴리머는 가뭄 조건에서 토양 내 수분보유력을 유지시킴으로써 Camelina의 양 수분의 흡수 및 생육에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 보인다.

Geographic data which are difficult to handle by the characteristics of spatial variation and variety turned into a possibility to analyze with tlie computer-aided digital map and the use of Geographic Information System(GIS). The purpose of this study is to develop and apply a GIS application model (GISCELWAB) for the spatial simulation of surface runoff from a small watershed. This paper discribes the modeling procedure and the applicability of the cell water balance model (CELWAB) which calculates the water balance of a cell and simulates surface runoff of watershed simultaneously by the interaction of cells. The cell water balance model was developed to simulate the temporal and spatial storage depth and surface runoff of a watershed. The CELWAB model was constituted by Inflow-Outflow Calculator (JOC) which was developed to connect cell-to-cell transport mechanism automatically in this study. The CELWAB model requests detail data for each component of a cell hydrologic process. In this study, therefore, BANWOL watershed which have available field data was selected, and sensitivity for several model parameters was analyzed. The simulated results of surface runoff agreed well with the observed data for the rising phase of hydrograph except the recession phase. Each mean of relative errors for peak discharge and peak time was 0.21% and2.1 1% respectively. In sensitivity analysis of CELWAB , antecedent soil moisture condition(AMC) affected most largely the model.

It has been about 5 years since the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident, which contaminated large area with radioactive materials. It is necessary to assess radiation dose to establish evacuation areas and to set decontamination goal for the large contaminated area. In this study, we assessed temporal trend of radiation dose to the public living in the large area contaminated with radioactive materials after the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident. The dose assessment was performed based on Chernobyl model and RESRAD model for two evacuation lift areas, Kawauchi and Naraha. It was reported that deposition densities in the areas were $4.3{\sim}96kBq\;m^{-2}$ for $^{134}Cs$, $1.4{\sim}300kBq\;m^{-2}$ for $^{137}Cs$, respectively. Radiation dose to the residents depended on radioactive cesium concentrations in the soil, ranging $0.11{\sim}2.4mSv\;y^{-1}$ at Kawauchi area and $0.69{\sim}1.1mSv\;y^{-1}$ at Naraha area in July 2014. The difference was less than 5% in radiation doses estimated by two different models. Radiation dose decreased with calendar time and the decreasing slope varied depending on dose assessment models. Based on the Chernobyl dosimetry model, radiation doses decreased with calendar time to about 65% level of the radiation dose in 2014 after 1 year, 11% level after 10 years, and 5.6% level after 30 years. RESRAD dosimetry model more slowly decreased radiation dose with time to about 85% level after 1 year, 40% level after 10 years, and 15% level after 30 years. The decrease of radiation dose can be mainly attributed into radioactive decays and environmental transport of the radioactive cesium. Only environmental transports of radioactive cesium without consideration of radioactive decays decreased radiation dose additionally 43% after 1 year, 72% after 3 years, 80% after 10 years, and 83% after 30 years. Radiation doses estimated with cesium concentration in the soil based on Chernobyl dosimetry model were compared with directly measured radiation doses. The estimated doses well agreed with the measurement data. This study results can be applied to radiation dose assessments at the contaminated area for radiation safety assurance or emergency preparedness.
