  • This study provides the phenomenon of distributional pattern of children's parks in Kwang-Joo city and shows the procedure of distributional changes. The demand of children's parks by Dong was estimated and a gap between present provision and demand was calculated with the aid of regression residuals by Dong. This research has produced the following major conclusions : 1. The distribution of children's parks shows minor relationship to urban variable, in terms of children's population (R=0.5402). 2. There is impressive evidence that children's parks delivery is highly responsive to laws and regulations of land development.

  • The effects of food concentration (Chlorella vulgaris) and predator (Pseudorasbora parva) density on the distributional pattern of Daphnia pulex was evaluated in observation chambers. It was found that in the chamber with higher food concentration, Daphnia began to aggregate and formed tighter swarms. The close distance between each individual and distance from the center of swarm were observed in higher food conditions however, this distributional pattern was not seen in the chamber without food. Thus it suggests that the food is necessary for the swarming behavior of Boptnia in natural habitat. The swarming developed regardless of predator existence and the predator density did not affect swarming pattern of Daphnia.

  • The eastern coast of Seopo-myeon, Sancheon-si in the South Coast is a bay almost completely separated from open sea by Changseon and Namhae Islands. Marine terraces in this area can be classified into geomorphic surfaces with elevations of 10~12m, 15~18m, 20~24m, 25~28m, 30~33m, 35~38m, 40~45m, 45~50m and 54m. This marine terrace system is similar to the Boryeong area in the West Coast. The geomorphic surfaces distribute along ridges and show relatively small areas. The young and old surfaces show a mixed distributional pattern. This distributional pattern contrasts to the East Coast where the oldest surface farthest from the coastline is parallel to the coast and age of the surfaces increases with a distance from the coast. These seem to result in high energy waves by typhoon that developed wave-cut platform on hill areas with relatively complex relief in a short time.

  • To clarify the species of genus Deutzia (Saxifragaceae, s. l.) in Korea, the taxonomic description was undertaken and interspecific relationships was discussed based on the external morphology with the light and scanning electron microscopes and the distributional pattern with specimens deposited in the herbaria. The presence or absence, number of rays, position and frequency of the stellate trichome, inflorescence and the morphology and venation pattern of petal were approved as the good characters to classify the Korean Deutzias. Although 17 kinds of Deutzia were reported in Korea hitherto, 9 kinds were excluded owing to the taxonomic treatment based on the comparative external morphology and the distributional uncertainty. Thus genus Deutzia in Korea could be rearranged as 2 sections, 3 subsection, 7 species and 1 variety. Among them, 4 species were considered as the endemic species in Korea.

  • This study examined distributional patterns of Asterias amurensis in Tongyeong, the central South Sea of Korea. The density of the sea star was estimated at 10 chosen sites in the inner and the outer parts of the Tongyeong coast from December 2000. The mean density of the species in this area was $2.4ind./m^{2}$. The seasonal surveys conducted at 3 arbitrary chosen sites (i.e., sea cage, reef and soft sediment) also showed that the abundance of the species at the sea cage site $(density:\;3.6\;ind./m^{2};\;biomass:\;250.7\;gwwt/m^{2})$ was significantly higher than at the reef site $(density:\;1.7\;ind./m^{2};\;biomass:\;63.5\;gwwt/m^{2})$ and the soft sediment site $(density:\;0.4\;ind./m^{2};\;biomass:\;18.9\;gwwt/m^{2})$. Densities were higher at sea cages areas than at reefs and soft bottom sites. At sea cage site, A. amurensis population exhibited a strong aggregated distributional pattern. In contrast, at reef and soft bottom sites, A. amurensis population showed a random distributional pattern. The spatial difference in prey species and its abundance was the primary factor determining the spatial heterogeneity of the sea star in its behavior characteristics. Experiments on the feeding preference indicated that A. amurensis had a strong selectivity on its prey, but this selectivity varied between populations living in different sites. In particular, A. amurensis populations at the reef site showed a strong selectivity on various sessile and mobile animals living in reef areas, suggesting that these animal groups may play a role as "windows for the survival of A. amurensis". These results suggest that the distribution of A. amurensis in Tongyeong is closely associated with abundance of prey species and the bottom composition.

  • Pinus densiflora stands are common secondary forest communities on infertile soils in Korea. The stands are results of long severe past biotic pressure such as cutting, burning and grazing. These could be regarded as biotic climax in Korea. Because of their prevalent occurrence, relatively simple species and age composition, and their domestic economic importance, study of their distributional patterns may give some basic knowledge for better utilization of land resources in Korea. To detect distributional patterns and interspecific associations ten pine stands, each of which was homogenious with respect to topography and physiognomy, were subjectively selected from pine stands in Kyunggi Province near Seoul in 1969 and were made object of this study. Four contiguous systematic samples of count for trees, shrubs and seedlings from belt transects were collected from homogeneous areas within ten natural pine stands. The belt transect was 64m or 128m in length, and 1m, 2m or 4m in width. Basic units within the transect ranged from 64 to 256. The data from the contiguous transects were analysed in terms of multiple split-plot experiment. Departure from randomness of stem distribution, i.e., pattern, was tested in terms of variance mean ratio. For the detection of association between species, correlation coefficient was calculated for different block sizes. The values of ${\gamma}$ were tested by the usual t-test. Fine trees within one of the stands showed significant regular distribution through out the blocks. Within other eight stands pines were randomly distributed at basic unit with 4$\times$4m, 2$\times$2m, 2$\times$1m and 1$\times$1m. One significantly clumped distribution at basic unit 2$\times$2m, however, was observed from one of the pine stands. These randomly distributed groups were themselves significantly regularly distributed throughout the blocks for four pine stands. For the other four pine stands, in addition to the random distribution at the basie unit(the primary random group), randomly distributed groups with 32m dimension(the secondary random groups) were also observed. Both the primary and the secondary random groups were significantly regularly distributed at the rest of blocks. Pine seedlings were not distributed randomly thoughout the blocks. Within three of the ten stands they were contagiously distributed. Important shrub species underneath pines such as Querus serrata, Q. acutissima, Leapedeza intermedia, Rhododendron Yedoense var. poukhanenae, Juniperus utilis, Rhododendron mucronulatum var. ciliatum shnwed consistently similar distributional pattern with the pine at each stand. The shrub species pairs; Rhododendron Yedoense var. poukhanenae/Quercus serrata, Rhododendron mucronulatum var. ciliatum/Lespedeza intermedia were significantly negatively associated from 1m to 4m dimensional block sizes but became significantly positively associated from 8m sized blocks on. On the other hand the shrub species pairs; Lespedeza intermedia/Robinia Pseudoacacia, and Lespedeza bicolor var, japonica/Lespedeza intermedia were also significnalty negatively associated from 1m to 8m sized blocks but became significantly positively associated from 16m sized blocks on. The associational pattern between Rhododendron mucronul tun var. poukhanenae and Lespedeza intermedia was not consistent throughout the stands. In some stands negative associations were observed throughout the blocks except NS 32. From these observatons micro-edaphic variation within the pine stands seems not to be great enough to cause distributinal difference of pine trees within the ten pine stands. Among each species and pine seedings, however, the edaphic variation within the pine stands may be great enought to cause distributional variation.

  • The research about distributional characteristics of coastal mantle communities in South Korea was accomplished. This study was carried out by direct analysis of the latitude and temperatures of each releve site on the basis of syntaxonomy and hierarchical system of coastal mantle communities which was already obtained from Zurich-Montpellier School's method. The distribution of coastal mantle communities in South Korea appeared from North to South in the order of Rosa rugosa community, Vitex rotundifolia community, the Linario-Viticetum rotundifoliae, the Roso-Viticetum rotundifoliae and the Imperato-Viticetum rotundifoliae, and it was recognized that tendencies of continuous and overlapped distribution pattern in adjacent syntaxa. Consequently, It is suggested that the syntaxonomical, geographical and bioclimatic informations of Japan, North Korea and China are essential to determine the distributional patterns of coastal mantle communities in Korean Peninsula.

  • For the geographical distribution of Primno macropa it was distributed over all stations investigated, except surface tow in East China Sea, through all seasons. It is believed that this species is most cosmopolitan species in the western North Pacific. Veritical distributional range of P. macropa indicates at depths from surface to more than 1,500m and most deeper recored for the vertical occurrence was obtained from depth of 1,650-2,220m in Station 229 $(34^\\circ 44.3'N, 140^\\circ 04.4'E)$, off Nojima-Zaki, Central Japan. For the vertical distributional and migrational pattern it is a typical diurnal migrant in the western North Pacific; at depths from 100m to 500m at night and 400m to 700m at day in Oyashio population, and from surface to 200m at night and from 100m to 300m at day in Kuroshio population. In Kuroshio area, the population of P. macropa was distributed in somewhat shallower layers than in Oyashio area and it is suggested that the populations is different in region and season according to their stages consisting the population.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the irradiation effects on the secretory granules of the rat submandibular gland acinar cell. For this study, Sprague-Dawley strain rats were irradiated to their neck region with the dose of 5Gy and l0Gy by 6MV X-radiation, and sacrificed on the experimental periods after irradiation. The authors observed the ultrastructural changes of the secretory granules of the rat submandibular gland acinar cell under a trasmission electron microscope. The results were as follows: In the transmission electron microscopic examination, secretory granules were blurred in limiting membrane on the 3hours groups after irradiation. And they showed decrease in number, irregularities in shape and distributional pattern, and inhomogeneous internal electron density on the Iday and 3days groups. After then, these changes were recovered in shape and distributional pattern on the 14days groups, and changes of internal electron density and limiting membrane were recovered on the 28days groups after irradiation. Among the intracellular organelles, rough endoplasmic reticulum was scattered, but golgi complex was not changed. And such pathologic changes were earlier and more prominent in 10Gy irradiated groups than in 5Gy irradiated groups.

  • The distributional pattern of the bast fibres strands or bundles in the stems of Sida species represented in Nigeria is studied. Three major patterns of arrangement are recognized, namely aggregation of fibre strands into units with wedge-shaped, or triangular, rectangular, rhomboidal, square and trapezoid outlines; serial arrangement of fibre strands into rings or circular, ovoid, semi-circular or crescentic rows; and intermediate pattern in which both fibre strands-aggregates and serial rows of strands patterns are combined. The first pattern is found in S. linifolia, S. urens and S. scabrida, the second in S. cordifolia, S. pilosa, S. ovata, S. rhombifolia and S. spinosa, and the third in S. garckeana, and S. acuta. A dichotomous key based on these features is presented. Dimensional characteristics of the bast fibre cells are also given.
