  • Traditional descriptions of water movement in soils and of calculations of infiltration rates neglect the air movement and its compressibility. The movement of two fluids in the bounded layered porous medium is treated analytically and computer simulations are conducted for given boundary conditions and initial saturation profiles. The movement of a given saturation across the interface between the different soil layers is theoretically developed by considering the conservation of mass. It is shown that the existence of the interface affects the infiltration rate when the average total velocity is greater than zero. The transition from one layer to another layer cause a change in the capillary drive and consequently influences the infiltration rate.

  • The effects of sediment and water movement on the survival and growth of Campylaephora hypnaeoides J. Agardh were examined in culture to elucidate why this species grows as an epiphytic alga. The survival and growth rates of Campylaephora tetraspores declined as the sediment concentration increased under both water-movement and no-water-movement treatments. After 5-day cultures under various sediment treatments, the respective survival and growth rates ranged from 27.32 to 78.63% and 0.22 to 0.29 $day^{-1}$ under the no-water-movement and from 15.66 to 82.69% and 0.19 to 0.31 $day^{-1}$ under the water-movement treatments. The maximum survival and growth of C. hypnaeoides tetraspores occurred at 20 and 40 ${\mu}mol$ photons $m^{-2}s^{-1}$, respectively. The survival of Campylaephora tetraspores and germlings declined with increasing dark period, but the tolerance of total darkness based on the survival rates was two-times greater for 5-day old sporelings than for tetraspores after 12 days. In conclusion, Campylaephora hypnaeoides grows as an epiphytic alga because its survivorship and growth decline rapidly with greater water movement and sedimentation and with lower light intensities.

  • It is important to determine water movement at the growing substrate used in soil-less cultivation for better management of water supply. Numerical simulation is a fast and versatile approach to evaluate highly accurate water distribution. The objective of this study is to simulate the water movement in rockwool as a soil-less medium using HYDRUS-2D. HYDRUS-2D was used to simulate the spatial and temporal water movement in two types of rockwool slabs (Floriculture (FL), high density; Expert (EP), low density). The simulation was performed at two pulse conditions: 10 min ON and 50 min OFF (case A), 20 min ON and 40 min OFF (case B). The total irrigation amounts were the same at both cases. In case A, during the irrigation ON, the water contents at FL increased 1.93-fold faster than the values at EP. Whereas, during the irrigation OFF, the decreasing rate of water contents at FL was almost the same as one at EP. At case B, these values were not changed much from case A. However, the duration of optimum water content (50% - 80%) was 15.0 min and 23.5 min at case A and case B, respectively. Thus, FL and 20 min ON and 40 min OFF (case B) could supply water to rockwool much faster and longer than EP. Once qualitatively validated, this simulation of water movement in rockwool could be used to design an effective optimum irrigation method for vegetables.

  • Through spot-investigation and observation of water quality environment of Jinhae Bay, this conducts the sea movement simulation on the current water quality of Jinhae Bay, grasps the flowing characteristics of Jinhae Bay and carries out ocean pollution simulation by using the data collected. Sea movement simulation results are tested by using Ocean Investigation Bureau's data of tide and current, and are also used in the ocean pollution spreading simulation. Water quality spreading simulation is conducted by using the data of sea movement and data of observation and then the results are compared with data of spot investigation. COD condensity is calculated and the water quality characteristics of Jinhae Bay are grasped.

  • From available data, the movement of the cold water in the Korea Strait was investigated. The cold water forms an undercurrent with a speed of 0.10knots near Ulgi in June. Sometimes it reaches a speed of 0.35knots. The cold water forms a sharp wdege in the western channel like a salt wedge in an estuary. The calculated volume transport of the cold water is 17,135 cubic meters per second in June. The external influences are also discussed.

  • Sodium is the major cation of the extracellular fluid and the primary determinant of extracellular osmolality. Therefore, hypernatremia causes water movement out of cells, while hyponatremia causes water movement into cells, resulting in cellular shrinkage and cellular swelling, respectively. Serious central nervous system symptoms may complicate both conditions. Since hypernatremia and hyponatremia are accompanied by abnormalities in water balance, it is essential to understand the mechanisms regulating extracellular osmolality and volume as well as the pathophysiology of hypernatremia and hyponatremia, in order to manage both conditions with swiftness and safety.

  • The monolithic weighing lysimeter is a useful facility that could directly measure water movement via layers, drainage, and evapotranspiration (ET) with precise sensors. We evaluated water movement through layers and water balance using the lysimeter with undisturbed paddy sandy loam soil, Gangseo soil series (mesic family of Anthraquic Eutrudepts classified by Soil Taxonomy) during winter season from Dec. 2014 to Feb. 2015. Daily ET indicated up to 1.5 mm in December and January and 2 mm in February. The abrupt increase of soil water tension at the depth of 0.1 m, when soil temperature at the same depth was below $2^{\circ}C$, was observed due to temporary frost heaving. The surface evaporation was less than reference ET below -15 kPa of soil water potential at the depth of 0.1 m. The maximum drainage rate was similar to the saturated hydraulic conductivity of a plow pan layer. Both upward and downward water movement, related to ET and drainage, were retarded by a plow pan layer. This study demonstrated that the lysimeter study could well quantify water balance components even under frost heaving during winter season and that a plow pan with low permeability could act as a boundary that affects drainage and evapotranspiration.

  • This study is analysis for adjacent structures and ground movement by deep excavation work. Underground Inclinometer has shown that deformation of increment is minor within to allowable limit. According to the measurements result of slope and crack for adjacent structures, a detached house showed bigger than hospital structure to deformation of increment. Variation of underground water level didn't effect so much to ground and adjacent structures movement because underground water flows in rock and didn't give the water press to propped walls. Measurement data of strut variation is within tolerance limit. Because excavation site's wall was strengthened suitably. This study will contribute in establishment of measurement standard and information-oriented construction during deep excavation in multi-layered ground including rock masses.

  • Recently reclamation land is largely developed to utilize the land according to economic growth. The soil of landfill is soft, low shear strength, which makes it difficult to use the equipment. A large movement is occurred on the utility tunnel under construction. The inclined land with high water level and underground facilities are widely distributed and the excess pore water pressure may occur under construction similarly to this study. Some different conditions are made to design result, such as 4m of soil piling near the construction area, heavy rainfall during 2nd excavation that may cause flow liquefaction. To analyze the cause of transverse lateral movement, Three dimensional analysis are performed to four load cases, which is original design condition, flow liquefaction by heavy rainfall, unsymmetric lateral soil pressure, and both of them simultaneously. Ten steps of full construction stage, 1st excavation for utility tunnel, construction of utility tunnel, 1st refill, piling soil from 1m to 4 m, 2nd excavation for drainage culvert, liquefaction around the utility tunnel, construction of drainage culvert and 2nd refill, are take into account to investigate the cause of movement.
