Chronic outbreaks of green tide in the Nakdong estuary toll a heavy socioeconomic cost. The paper investigates the influence of sediments on the nitrogen eutrophication, being claimed as the primary cause of green tide. To measure the flux of nitrate at the sediments-water interface, sediment cores were taken in Jan., Mar., May and Sep., 2000 at Noksan located in the West-Nakdong river estuary. The dissolved oxygen was profiled and then the pore water was extracted in situ. Core samples were analyzed for their textural characteristics. Cores were incubated by a novel technique to measure the fluxes of nitrate $(NO_3^-)$ and ammonia $(NH_4^+)$ at the sediment-water interface. The dissolved oxygen was depleted usually within several millimeters in the top sediments. Nitrate started to decrease drastically at the layer where dissolved oxygen was nearly depleted. Nitrate was also exhausted within several centimeters, followed by ammonia build up rapidly. The flux at the sediments-water interface calculated from the pore water concentrations revealed that nitrate was removed from the water column into the sediments. The sediment incubation experiment confirmed the above result. On the other hand ammonia were released from the sediment to the water column. As the incubation went on, however, the nitrate concentration in the overlying water was dropped below that of a top sediment. Then the flux is reversed, i.e., nitrate was released from the sediments to the water column. The implication is that the sediment can supply nitrate to the water column if it falls below a certain level. Thus it is likely that sediments in the eutrophicated river buffers the nitrate concentration in the water column, which leads to a prolonged green tide.

Aureobasidium pullulans에 의한 세포외 다속류 생성연구를 통한 결론은 다음과 같다. (1) sucrose 농도가 50 g/l 이상일 때는 기질에 의한 저해 작용이 나타나고 있음을 알았으며 실소원의 증가에 따라서 균체량은 증가하지만 세포외 다속류 생성은 최적농도 (1 g/l )까지 증가하고 그 이상에서는 감소했으며 멜라닌 색소 출현시간은 길어졌다. (2) 최대 균체 성장은 초기 pH 3.0에서 보인 반면에 세포외 다속류 생성은 초기 pH 7.5에서 최대 값은 나타내었고 최대 PH가 증가함에 따라서 효모형 비율이 증가했으며 멜라닌 색소 출현시간은 pH 4.5~8까지는 거의 일정하게 나타났지만 pH 3 이하에서는 전혀 멜라닌 색소가 나타나지 않았다. (3) 탄소원과 실소원을 증가시켰을 때 pH 5 이하에서는 멜라닌 색소는 나타나지 않았으나 pH 6에서 pH 8.5 로 pH가 높아짐에 따라 멜라닌 색소는 빨리 나타나는 경향을 보였다. (4) 용존산소 농도가 높을수록 균체량과 세포외 다속류 생성이 증가했고 멜라닌 색소 출현시간이 빨라졌으며 potassium phosphate가 전혀 들어있지 않는 배지에서는 멜라닌 색소 출현은 관찰할수가 없었다.

1. 일반적으로 제주도 연안역에서의 영양염류 농도는 성분에 따라 차이가 있으나 표층보다 50 m이심에서의 농도가 $0.5\sim3$배 정도 높다. 2. 제주도 남동쪽 해역의 수온, 염분과 규산염, 질산염, 인산염, 용존산소의 농도 분포가 단조롭고 비교적 각 성분의 량도 적다. 3. 제주도 북쪽 해역은 한국남안연 안수의 영향을 받아 각 성분의 농도 분포가 복잡하고 그 변동 범위도 크다. 또 영양염류도 이 해역이 남동쪽 해역보다 풍부하다. 4. 제주도 남서쪽 해역은 황해저층냉수의 영향을 받아 영양염이 풍부하나 황해난류와 만나는 호경역이므로 그 분포상은 매우 복잡하다.

Inquiry has great value in environmental education(EE). Being able to see the world environmentally through 'inquiry-based environmental education' can be an important value and goal of EE. In this study, we intended to develop an EE program of measuring activity of dissolved oxygen(DO), based on the theory of 'inquiry-based EE'. Especially, we recognized the potential that DO meter can be used in 'inquiry-based EE', and we tried to develop a model of inquiry-based EE using DO meter. As a result of this research, we present specific models of inquiry-based EE about how to perform measuring activity of DO and how to use the DO meter in laboratories and streams from the perspective of inquiry of water environment. In the process of program development, we considered organization of the inquiry process, use of concept and knowledge, scientific inquiry and insightful inquiry, integration, sustain-ability, content components of 'Environmental Studies for EE', developmental level and in-forest of students. The developed EE model is a scientific inquiry model, pursuing 'explanation' based on data collection. Through this model, we tried to make students see water environment more deeply. The developed program can be applied to various water environments, like laboratories, streams, ponds, etc. It can be more effective inquiry activity if we perform measuring activities simultaneously with PH, electrical conductivity, and turbidity meters.

The response of dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations caused significant change in root number, root length, coleoptile length, shoot length and leaf age of seedlings. The genotypic difference in the effect of DO also highly significant (P<0.01) for all of the seedling traits. The number and length of root were extremely inhibited at the condition of $0.39\pm0.09$ DO concentration. While the coleoptile elongated markedly in the lowest DO concentrations, the shoot did not develop. The root growth was improved slightly at the $1.39\pm0.27mg L^{-1}$, however, there were no difference among genotypes at these two low DO concentrations. As the DO concentration become higher, the growth of root and shoot was improved remarkably. Root number, root length and shoot length was significantly different between $20\;and\;30^{\circ}C$ in DO rich and normal conditions, the development of those traits were apparently accelerated in high water temperature, however those traits of seedlings in DO deficiency were not different between the two temperatures except for shoot length. On the other hand the coleoptile length was not affected by the stagnant water temperature; it was stimulated by the low DO concentration. The competition of DO was greater as the seedling density was increased in the stagnant water, therefore the seedlings grown under high density have long and white coleoptiles, and the growth of roots and shoots was retarded severely.

Sing]e-well-push-pull tests were developed for use in assessing the feasibility of in-situ aerobic cometabolism of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs). The series includes Transport tests, Biostimulation tests, and Activity tests. Transport tests are conducted to evaluate the mobility of solutes used in subsequent tests. These included bromide or chloride (conservative tracers), propane (growth substrate), ethylene, propylene (CAH surrogates), dissolved oxygen (electron acceptor) and nitrate (a minor nutrient). Tests were conducted at an experimental well field of Oregon State University. At this site, extraction phase breakthrough curves for all solutes were similar, indicating apparent conservative transport of the dissolved gases and nitrate prior to biostimulation. Biostimulation tests were conducted to stimulate propane-utilizing activity of indigenous microorganisms and consisted of sequential injections of site groundwater containing dissolved propane and oxygen. Biostimulation was detected by the increase in rates of propane and oxygen utilization after each injection. Activity tests were conducted to quantify rates of substrate utilization and to confirm that CAH-transforming activity had been stimulated. In particular, the transformation of injected CAH surrogates ethylene and propylene to the cometabolic byproducts ethylene oxide and propylene oxide provided evidence that activity of the monooxygenase enzyme system, responsible for aerobic cometabolic transformations of CAHs had been stimulated. Estimated zero-order transformation rates decreased in the order propane > ethylene > propylene. The series of push-pu3l tests developed and field tested in this study should prove useful for conducting rapid, low-cost feasibility assessments for in situ aerobic cometabolism of CAHs.

본 연구는 실험실규모의 산화지 공법을 적용하였다. 체류시간 변화 및 산화지 형태가 처리율에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 조류의 광합성에 대한 유기물 제거율과 용존산소와의 상관관계는 야간에 비해 주간의 상관성이 더 높은 것으로 나타났고, 단일지의 경우는 체류시간 15일의 경우가 5일에 비해 상관성이 더 높은 것으로 조사되었다. 시간대별 DO변화는 체류시간 5일의 경우 다단산화지 내의 DO농포는 $42{\sim}19.8\;mg/l$를 나타내었고, 첫번째 조에 비해 후단으로 갈수록 높아졌다. 유기물 처리효율은 체류시간 5일이고, 4단 직렬식 다단 산화지 시설에서 제거효율이 더 높았다. 유기물 제거효율로 $TBOD_5$ 평균 제거율은 $49{\sim}83%$를 나타내었고, $SBOD_5$의 경우는 $87{\sim}92%$의 높은 처리율을 나타내었다. 또한 산화지내 조류생성량을 일정 농도로 유지시켜 주는 것이 산화지 공법의 처리율을 높일 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

We performed three sets of feeding trials to establish the optimal feed size (Exp-I), stocking density (Exp-II), and dissolved oxygen level (DO) (Exp-III) for olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus. In Exp-1, four replicate groups of fish ($53.6{\pm}0.9g$) were fed commercial diets with three particle sizes (small, medium, and large). In Exp-II, fish ($30.0{\pm}0.1g$) were reared at four stocking densities (1.8, 3.5, 5.3, and $7.1kg/m^3$). In Exp-III, fish ($187{\pm}1.48g$) were reared under two different DO levels (2-3 and 6-7 mg/L). In Exp-I, fish fed the large-particle diet gained significantly more weight and had a lower feed conversion ratio than fish fed the small- and medium-particle diets. In Exp-II, fish reared at 1.8 and $3.5kg/m^3$ gained slightly more weight and had lower feed conversion ratios than fish reared at 5.3 and $7.1kg/m^3$, although these differences were not significant. In Exp-III, negative effects were observed in the low DO groups. Therefore, under our experimental conditions, the optimal feed particle size, stocking density, and DO level for olive flounder were 9-9.4 mm, $3.5kg/m^3$, and 6-7 mg/L, respectively.

The cyclic polarisation technique was applied to determine the corrosion, primary-passivation, transpassive, and protection potential of AISI 316L stainless steels immersed in 3550-ppm NaCl solution containing sulfate in the content up to 3000 ppm. The solutions were kept constant at $27^{\circ}C$ and saturated by laboratory air. The solution pH was varied from 3 to 11. Each type of potentials was plotted in function of pH and linked as lines to determine the different zones in the constructed potential-pH diagram. The predominant regimes of the immunity, general corrosion, perfect passivation, imperfect passivation, and pitting corrosion were determined based on those lines of potentials. Comparing to the potential-pH diagram of specimens immersed in the aerated and deaerated 3550-ppm NaCl solutions, the addition of 3000-ppm $Na_2SO_4$ to these solutions increased the overall, perfect and imperfect, passivation regime by shifting the transpassive-potential line to the noble direction. However, it also widened the imperfect passivation area. The addition of $Na_2SO_4$ did not significantly affect the corrosion potential. It was found that the dissolved oxygen tends to negatively shift the transpassive-potential and protection-potential lines at all studied pH. The considerable effect of dissolved oxygen on corrosion and primary-passivation potentials could not be observed.
