The object ofthis study was to test for STORMSYS process that composed Catch Basin and Stormsys(three units: vortex solids separator, filter media bed and vegetated filter strips). It could be applied to treat the first-flush non-point pollution materials on the road(especially, motorway). This study investigated that the runoff characteristics of non-point pollutions containing the heavy metal(Fe, Zn and Cu) by rainfall showed relatively high pollution concentration in the early-stage storm runoff on the road, which seems to be caused by the vehicular traffic, and showed the rapid reduction of pollution concentration on the basis of about 5mm rainfall volume. As the number of the non-rainy days were increased, the pollution concentration by storm runoff was increased, also. As a test result of this process, the average removal efficiency of BOD, $COD_{mn}$, SS, T-N and T-P over the testing period were 92.7%,88.6%,97.4%,93.0% and 93.3%, respectively. Also, the average removal efficiency of n-Hexane, Fe, Zn and Cu were 86.7%, 96.1%, 84.4% and 78.4%, respectively. As shown in the characteristics of storm runoff, the non-point pollution materials have high pollution concentration in the early-stage storm runoff on the road, the installation of STORMSYS process is expected to reduce considerable amount of non-point pollutions.

Objectives Danggwisoo-san and Jakyakgamcho-tang are frequently prescribed for traffic accident patients in Korea. The aim of this study was to examine index compound analysis, antioxidant activity and amount of starch measurement by extraction method. Methods Danggwisoo-san and Jakyakgamcho-tang were extracted with water and 70% ethanol. Antioxidant activity was measured by 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) and ferric reducing antioxidant power according to the standard protocol. The contents of the indicator components nodakenin, paeoniflorin, and glycyrrhizin were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography, respectively. All starches were hydrolyzed and then total D-glucose was measured and compared. Results Antioxidant activity was excellent in 70% ethanol in all assays. The index component was jagged because its solubility was different depending on the extraction solvent. Starch content was significantly lower in 70% alcohol extract than water extract. Conclusions The results of this study showed that physiological activities and components are different according to extraction conditions. Each herbal medicine has a suitable extraction solvent. Also, the difference in starch content is an object to be considered as it may affect digestion and absorption.

In this study, the DongPieHong Ditch were taken as the research object, five sampling points were set to measure the COD, NH₃-N,TNandTPindexes. The correlation and principal component analysis were used to judge the main pollution sources and calculate pollution contribution rate. According to the population in the basin, the load of point source pollution into the river was estimated. As a result, the load of COD, NH₃-N and TP into the river was 323.04t/a, 43.8t/a and 3.9t/a, respectively. According to the statistics of the rainfall in the basin, the concentrations of COD, TP and NH₃-N in the initial rainwater were measured and calculated for non-point source pollution, and the results shown that the inflow loads of COD, NH₃-N and TP into the river were 34.59t/a, 0.12t/a and 0.71t/a, respectively. It was found that the main cause of the pollution in the east flash flood gully was point source pollution, and the proportions of COD, NH₃-N and TP into the river were 90.33%, 99.72% and 84.61%, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the actual conditions, to find problems, and to present an improvement plan of interior landscape in the subway stationis. Moreoiver, it will presume the possibilties to develop the subway and ways to utilie underground space effectively. The results are summarized as follows A light intensity was recorded 0-100 Lux as the lowest light and 500 Lux below as the highest in 61 subway stations. An average temperature of 12 $^{\circ}C$and an air humidity of 38% were recorded over a 4 month period from January to April, but includes a drastic variaton between -8.5$^{\circ}C$ and 21.5$^{\circ}C$. Soil acidity of pH 7 below and soil moisture of 1-2 wet degree were apeared in subway stations mostly. Plant forms consisted of artificial flower & flower. Plant species were recorded at a total of 54 species and appeared in the order of Araucaria heteropylla, Ophiophogon jaburan, Aspidistra elatior cv. 'Asahi' and Hedera helix. Plant height was, for the most part, below 0.5m. Plant species that was fined of conditions were Palm, Camellia japonica, Araucaria heterophylla as a high plant, dracaena fragrans, dracaena deremensis cv. Wakneckii as a middle plant, and Ophiopogon jaburan, Hedra helix, ytomium falcatum, Aspidistra elatior cv. Asahi as a low plant. It used to water materials such as small pool, small cascade, water cycles and natural materials such as natural rock, small rock, sand, bark and animal materials such as squirrels, birds, goldfish as an object for plants in the subway stations. From these actual conditions, First of all, It must make up physical environments such as light, temperature humidity, soil for plant growth, and is important to chooce suitable indoor plants and draw up systematic management in the subway environments. Also, it change plants frequently and uses variable objects for subway stationi individuatism, Moreover, indoor plants with strong environmental adaptation abities such as shade tolerance, drought tolerance and cold tolerance need to develope variable species possibly. If these improvements occur, utilization and amenity of subway stationis will increase, according to the use of interior landscape.

Data assimilation techniques have received growing attention due to their capability to improve prediction in various areas. Despite of their potentials, applicable software frameworks to probabilistic approaches and data assimilation are still limited because the most of hydrologic modelling software are based on a deterministic approach. In this study, we developed a hydrological modelling framework for sequential data assimilation, namely MPI-OHyMoS. MPI-OHyMoS allows user to develop his/her own element models and to easily build a total simulation system model for hydrological simulations. Unlike process-based modelling framework, this software framework benefits from its object-oriented feature to flexibly represent hydrological processes without any change of the main library. In this software framework, sequential data assimilation based on the particle filters is available for any hydrologic models considering various sources of uncertainty originated from input forcing, parameters and observations. The particle filters are a Bayesian learning process in which the propagation of all uncertainties is carried out by a suitable selection of randomly generated particles without any assumptions about the nature of the distributions. In MPI-OHyMoS, ensemble simulations are parallelized, which can take advantage of high performance computing (HPC) system. We applied this software framework for several catchments in Japan using a distributed hydrologic model. Uncertainty of model parameters and radar rainfall estimates is assessed simultaneously in sequential data assimilation.

The objective of this study was to establish the optimal system operating strategies for nitrogen and phosphorus removal through model simulation system built for advanced wastewater treatment targeting on simultaneous temporal/special phase isolation BNR process. The simulation system was built with unit process modules using object modules in GPS-X code. The system was well verified by field experiment data. Simulation study was carried out to investigate performance response to design and operation parameters, i.e. hydraulic retention time (HRT), solids retention time (SRT), and cycle time. The process operated at HRTs of 10~15 hours, longer SRTs, and cycle time of 2 hours showed optimal removal of nitrogen. The HRTs of 10~15 hours, SRTs of 20~25 days, and longer cycle time was optimal for phosphorus removal. Both simulation and field studies showed that optimal operating strategies satisfying both the best nitrogen and phosphorus removals include HRTs ranged 10~15 hours, SRTs ranged 20~25 days, and cycle times of 4~8 hours. The simulation system with modularization of generalized components in BNR processes was, therefore, believed to be a powerful tool for establishing optimal strategies of advanced wastewater treatment.

Object : In conditions of brain infarction, irreversible axon damage occurs in the central nerve system (CNS), because gliosis makes physical and mechanical barriers. If gliosis formation could be suppressed, irreversible axon damage would be reduced. This could mean that an injured CNS could be regenerated. CD81 and GFAP have close relationships to gliosis. The increase in glial cells at CNS injury gives rise to the expression of CD81 and GFAP. CD81 was postulated to play a central role in the process of CNS scar formation. Method : In this study, the author investigated the effect of the water extract of the Moutan Radicis Cortex on regulation of CD81 and GFAP expression in injured CNS cells. MTT assay was used to examine cell viability, while RT-PCR and ELISA methods were carried out to measure the expression of CD81 and GFAP in the astrocyte. Results : We observed that water extract of the Moutan Radicis Cortex increased cell viability under hypoxia induced by $CoCl_2$ and suppressed the expression of CD81 and GFAP up-regulated by hypoxia. Conclusion : These results suggest that the Moutan Redicis Cortex could promote neural regeneration as a consequence of protecting CNS cells from hypoxia and suppressing the reactive gliosis following CNS injury.

Objective : To investigate the effects of Pyeongwi-san-gamibang on atopic dermatitis, this study measured TEWL(transepidermal water loss), observed scratching behaviors and checked levels of Total IgE, IL-4, IFN-${\gamma}$ and conducted skin biopsy on NC/Nga mice with atopic dermatitis. Methods : NC/Nga mice were challenged with DNCB during 5 weeks to develop atopic dermatitis-like skin lesions. The NC/Nga mice with atopic dermatitis were divided into three groups of control group, PW-d, PW-e group. Once a day for 22 days, Pyeongwi-san-GamiBang extract with water was administered for the PW-d group and the extract with 80% ethanol was administered for PW-e group compared with saline solution for control group. During drug administration, sensitization by DNCB had lasted for three times per week. Results : 1. TEWL had no statistical difference among 3 groups. 2. The scratching behaviors had no statistical difference among 3 groups. 3. The levels of Total IgE in PW-d, PW-e group had a statistically significantly higher than that of the control group although difference between the control group and the PW-d, PW-e group were similar. 4. The level of IL-4 had no statistical difference among 3 groups. 5. The level of IFN-${\gamma}$ had no statistical difference among 3 groups. 6. As the observation of toluidine blue stained lesion, both PW-d and PW-e group had lower level of histamine releasement compared with the control group. Conclusion : Result based on these experiments, Pyeongwi-san-GamiBang on atopic dermatitis-like skin inflammation in NC/Nga mice is not effective. But, as the study showed significantly individual differece, we need to repeat these study after supplementing the object number and modified indicator of clinical severity.

홍수범람지도는 치수 대책 수립 등 다양한 목적으로 국내 주요하천에서 작성되고 있으며 범람 구역의 정확도를 높이기 위한 노력이 다각도로 수행되고 있다. 최근, 공간적으로 매우 정밀한 LiDAR 측량 성과를 기반한 DEM을 이용하거나 2차원 혹은 3차원 수치모델링을 적용하여 범람지도의 정확성 및 적용성이 획기적으로 개선되고 있다. 또한, 범람구역의 불확도에 관련된 연구도 다수 수행되고 있다. 그러나, 이러한 성과는 정밀 DEM 자료가 가용하거나 치수의 중요도가 높은 국가하천 지역에 국한되고 있으며 중소하천을 포함한 국가 전체 홍수지도 작성은 여전히 제한적으로 수행되고 있다. 중소하천의 경우, 공간해상도 및 정확도가 낮은 DEM과 1차원 모델링에 기반하여 범람지도의 신뢰도가 여전히 낮은 실정이다. 또한, 홍수지도 작성 기법은 비교적 잘 알려진 상황이나 작성 과정은 상당한 시간이 필요한 작업으로 지도 작성 시 실무에서 많은 비용과 시간이 소요되고 있어, 결과적으로 중소하천을 포괄한 홍수범람지도 작성에 장애요인으로 작용하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 기존 하천기본계획에서 확보될 수 있는 하도단면 측량 등 표고 측량 성과를 활용하여 공간 해상도가 상대적으로 낮은 DEM을 정교화 및 상세화할 수 있는 개선기법 및 복잡한 범람지도 작성과정을 자동화하여 작성 소요시간을 현저히 줄일 수 있도록 하는 GIS 기반의 홍수범람지도 작성 자동화 툴을 개발하였다. 개발된 GIS 기반의 자동화 툴은 AIM(Automated Inundation Mapping tool)로 명명되었으며 ESRI사의 ArcObjects를 활용하여 개발되어 ArcGIS 기반으로 운영되며 현재 HEC-RAS 홍수위 자료가 입력자료로 작동되도록 설계되었다. 개선된 DEM과 AIM은 시범적으로 제주도 한천 하류에 적용되었으며 2007년 태풍 나리 시 발생한 범람흔적도와 비교했을 때 기존 방식에 비해 범람지도의 정확도와 작성시간(10초 가량 소요)이 상당부분 개선되었다.

하천공간은 하도, 사주, 식생, 하천구조물 등에 대한 특성을 지니고 있으며, 현장조사를 통해 하천공간에 대한 자료를 분석하여 기초자료를 생산한다. 기존에는 현장에서 육안조사나 지상에서 사진촬영, 스케치방법으로 하천공간특성에 대한 조사를 수행하였으나, 지상에서 조사한 자료은 하천특성에 대한 물리적·공간적 특성을 파악하기 어렵고 자료의 활용성이 낮은 한계점이 존재한다. 이와 같은 한계를 극복하기 위해 GIS 및 RS 기술을 활용한 고도화된 첨단조사 기술 및 장비가 도입되어 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 하천공간특성을 GIS 기반으로 객체지향 분류 적용 연구와 분류 항목에 따른 공간분석 연구를 수행하였다. 연구를 위한 대상지역은 섬진강권역의 지석천 유역 하류부에 위치하고 있는 지석천 친수공원을 대상으로 선정하였다. 대상지역의 고해상도 항공영상을 수집 및 정합한 후 QGIS에서 제공하는 Orfeo ToolBox(OTB)의 LSMS(Large Scale Mean-Shift) 기법으로 정합한 항공영상의 객체지향 영상분할을 실시하여 벡터 레이어를 생성하였고, 하천공간특성에 따른 항목을 선정하여 각 항목의 영역에 대한 선별을 통해 훈련데이터를 생성하였다. 훈련데이터는 랜덤 포레스트를 이용하여 각 항목에 대한 자동 분류를 확인하였으며, 하천공간특성의 정량적 평가를 위해 분류된 각 항목별 공간분석을 통해 면적, 위치정보(위도, 경도, 표고)를 산정하였다. 분석 결과, 하천공간특성을 GIS 기반의 벡터 레이어와 각 항목에 대한 정량적 분석을 통해 하천공간의 DB를 구축하였다. 이와 같이 하천공간 DB 구축을 통해 전국 하천관리체계를 위한 기초자료를 구축하고자 하였다.
