Chlorella has been used as a very useful food for rearing rotifer which is an important live food for early stages of fish and crustancean larvae. But Chlorella does not grow well in higher or lower temperature such as during summer or winter season in this country. Therefore, cooling or heating facilities are needed for Chlorella culture during summer or winter, but it costs too much for the commercial scale fish farmers. To solve this problem, the growth rates of 34 different species of phytoplanktons were examined at the various levels of temperatures, salinites and light intensities to select suitable species as the food for rotifers for summer and that for winter. After the suitable species were selected, growth comparisons of rotifer groups which were fed the selected species of phytoplanktons against rotifer group fed Chlorella as a control were done. Fatty acid compositions of the selected phytoplanktons and rotifer groups which were fed these selected phytoplanktons were examined. It was revealed that Nannnochioris oculata was optimum for rotifers in summer season and Phaeodactylum tricornutum was suitable for that in winter season. The optimum temperature, salinity and light intensity for former phytoplankton were $28^{\circ}C$, $33\%_{\circ}$ and 5,000 lux and those for later were $10^{\circ}C$, $30\%_{\circ}$ and 8,000 lux, respectively. In the higher temperature condition, the growth of N. oculata fed rotifer group was better than Chlorella ellipsoidea fed group. In the lower temperature condition, however, the growth of Chlorella fed rotifer group was slightly better than P. tricornutum fed group. Between two selected phytoplanktons, N. oculata has the highest content of linolenic acid (18 : 3 $\omega$ - 3, $\omega$ - 6) which is essential fatty acid for marine fish larvae. A rotifer group which was fed this plankton also showed the highest linolenic acid content among the other rotifer groups.

Purpose: The degree of the pupil covered with tinted region of circle soft contact lens was determined according to the illuminant conditions in everyday life and the change of visual acuity by its covering was further investigated. Methods: The circle contact lens having the non-tinted area of 6.2 mm in the center of the lens was applied on 82 eyes in their 20s and their minimum separable visual acuity and minimum legible visual acuity were determined under the luminances of 50 and 370 lux. Results: The covering of pupil was not found when wearing circle contact lens under 370 lux, however, some pupil covering ranged from 0.40 to 1.70 mm was observed in all subjects under 50 lux. The minimum separable visual acuity and minimum legible visual acuity were significantly decreased by the wearing of circle contact lens under 50 lux and the correlation between the larger pupil size of subjects and more decrease of visual acuity was observed. Furthermore, the decrease of minimum separable visual acuity was larger than the case of minimum legible visual acuity indicating that minimum separable visual acuity was largely affected by the covering of pupil. Conclusions: The consideration is necessary for the lens wearers and the manufacturers since the wearing circle contact lens in low-light indoor or nighttime activities may affect directly visual acuity.

The main causes of traffic accidents while driving a car is of the driver's visual distraction. In this study, the color sensitivity of the information projected on the windshield were evaluated for HUD (Head Up Display) system which helps the driver's eyes on the road while driving. The driving Information were projected $9^{\circ}$ downward from front sight $0^{\circ}$ under lab's fluorescent lights, LED floorlights and the TV had having 25 [lux] illumination when driving at night environment and 100,000 [lux] of daylight environment. Munsell color hue of the basic five colors (R, Y, G, B, P) and the color of traffic lights YR, W were the color of the seven characters, each character were outlined by White, Gray except for W. Total of 19 experimental stimuli was shown in the environment of day and night driving for asking visibility information of color, fatigue, preferences, and evaluate the degree of interference. The results came out that the bright Y and G color is visibility significantly for daylight. Second, with the outline of the text, the color of the outline works as a background for luminance contrast effects and affects visibility. Third, without the outline, the glass in front of the vehicle acts as the background and the luminance contrast of characters achieve greater brightness and visibility. The luminance contrast between the stimuli and background should be considered for increasing color visibility for driving information which is an important factor for HUD commercialization.

The fishing lamp is a fishing gear that gathers fish at night. But the cost of oil, which is used to light fishing lamp, has been risen significantly up to 30-40% of total fishing costs. Therefore it is very urgent to develop an energy economical fishing lamp in order to solve the business difficulties of fisheries. Under this background, this research aims at developing a fishing lamp for squid jigging and hairtail angling fishery using the LED, which has excellent energy efficiency and durability. The LED fishing lamp developed can be controlled to fix a fit direction of fish shoal deep because a fishing lamp can be adjustable up and down directions. One unit of fishing lamp has about an 80Watt capacity and the frame of fishing lamp is made of aluminium to emit generated heat of LED to outside. The LED lamp developed was highly durable, only 5.7% of emitting efficiency decreased for 18 months. The illuminance of a unit LED lamp was 2,070lux at 1m and 21lux at 10 m distance, and the intensity of LED lamp system emitted 2,580lux and 400lux at the respective distances. After development of this fishing lamp, 100 units are installed on operating fishing vessels. Experimental results show that energy consumption of squid jigging and hairtail angling was reduced by 40% and 87%, respectively. In conclusion, our methods showed elevated fishing power, compared with traditional fishing method: 37.7% for squid jigging and 24.5% for hairtail angling.

As a part for the development of effective mass production techniqne of the puffer, Takifugu rubripes. seedfish, an investigation was carried out in 1989. 1991 and 1992 to determine the optimum starting feeding time of rotifers as a starting food for the fish larvae, and to find out the influences of the light intensitiy and LD cycles on the Artemia consumption by the larvae. The optimum starting time of feeding with rotifer. Brachionus Plicatilis was 2nd to 5th day from hatching resulting in survival of $96.5\~90.0\%$. Optimum light conditions for maximum feeding for fish larvae with Artemia were 1000 lux in 6mm, 600 lux in 8mm, and 200 lux in total length of 10-12 mm larvae. Relationship between total length (X: mm) of fish (6-12 mm in total length) and light intensity (Y: lux) for maximum feeding was:Y=2200-200X (r=-1.000). Relationship between days from hatching (X) and total length (Y: mm) of puffer fry was :Y=1.6427+0.2540X(r=0.9814) for 3 to 36 days after hatching, Y=-33.1452+1.1867X(r= 0.9854) for 36 to 68 days after hatching. Survival rate for 68 days after hatching was $24.1\%$ and the range of water temperature during this period was $21.25\pm1.67^{\circ}C$.

Pseudomonas syringae pathovar tabaci is a plant pathogenic bacterium that causes wildfire disease in tobacco plants. In P. syringae pv. tabaci, PsyI, a LuxI-type protein, acts as an AHL synthase, while primary and secondary sequence analysis of PsyR has revealed that it is a homolog of the LuxR-type transcriptional regulator that responds to AHL molecules. In this study, using phenotypic and genetic analyses in P. syringae pv. tabaci, we show the effect of PsyR protein as a quorum-sensing (QS) transcriptional regulator. Regulatory effects of PsyR on swarming motility and production of siderophores, tabtoxin, and N-acyl homoserine lactones were examined via phenotypic assays, and confirmed by quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Further qRT-PCR showed that PsyR regulates expression of these virulence genes in response to environmental signals. However, an upstream region of the gene was not bound with purified MBP-PsyR protein; rather, PsyR was only able to shift the upstream region of psyI. These results suggested that PsyR may be indirectly controlled via intermediate-regulatory systems and that auto-regulation by PsyR does not occur.

This research has been done to evaluate the interior environmental factors in Gyungro-dang to suggest the advanced recommendations for them. For this research, the essential interior elements influencing on elderly's behavior were examined with the developed checklist, the lighting and color conditions of main hall at 14 facilities in Seoul area were analysed, and 124 subjects staying at Gyungro-dang were participated in questionaire survey for color preferences. Results showed that 1.The average installation rate of 39 items in checklist was 59%, the mandatory items such as accessible dimension were considered, but several items related to mobility and safety were not properly installed. Therefore not only guiding handrail and floor block to destination but also elimination of obstacles should be reconsidered. 2.The average of illuminances was 289 Lux dose to standard 300 Lux, but lighting quality was too low to support the activities of elderly users. The lighting control devices, combined lighting sources, and suitable lighting techniques should be applied for those facilities. 3.Most facilities were predominantly in warm colors in hue, medium or high value, low saturation, and natural atmosphere with similarity harmony. The color applications in those facilities were not functional, but similar as color preferences for the elderly except overall atmosphere. It is recommendable to include contrast harmony with classic or romantic mood.

Eight colors prescribed by the Enforcement Rules of the Road Traffic Act and the group standard were tested to secure the minimum recursive reflectance performance standards when drying and wetting. The results were calculated to be 260.8 (mcd/㎡·lux) when drying white and 154.6 (mcd/㎡·lux) when wet. Yellow was 67% compared to the white reflective performance when drying. Wet poetry was 79 % and 59 %, respectively. In the case of blue, it was 64% in the case of white versus 72% in the case of white. Wet poetry was 63 % and 72 %, respectively. The range of changes in reflective performance during wetting was higher than when drying, and the absence of glass grains was similar to the previous results. The new colors also have a standard value of more than 50% compared to the white color in red, orange, pink, light green, and green. Based on this, it was estimated that the minimum reflective performance criteria according to the color of the road markings would form the basis for the enforcement rules of the Road Traffic Act.

This study aims to identify the impact of optical energy on cultural properties when the light energy irradiates cultural assets during augmented reality (AR) or media façade performances as activities designed to garner public interest. The 10-story Gyeongcheonsa Pagoda was used for this study, and the impact was evaluated by comparing the optical energy irradiated during a media façade performance with the energy irradiated under normal conditions. For comparison, this study measured the illuminance in lux for each light source that irradiated the ten-story stone pagoda and used the data to calculate illuminance in lux-hours. The results showed that the pagoda receives 786.4 lux per hour when both sunlight and artificial light are present, while 13.2 lux of energy is irradicated by the media façade for each performance. The result indicates that the pagoda receives about 29.8 times more optical energy from sunlight and artificial light sources than during media façade performances on an hourly basis, when the performance is carried out twice a week. This study therefore concludes that the optical energy of media façade performances inflicted trivial damage to the ten-story stone pagoda.

In this study, feature point detection and displacement measurement performance depending on feature extraction algorithms were compared and analyzed according to environmental changes and target types in the feature point-based displacement measurement algorithm. A three-story frame structure was designed for performance evaluation, and the displacement response of the structure was digitized into FHD (1920×1080) resolution. For performance analysis, the initial measurement distance was set to 10m, and increased up to 40m with an increment of 10m. During the experiments, illuminance was fixed to 450lux or 120lux. The artificial and natural targets mounted on the structure were set as regions of interest and used for feature point detection. Various feature detection algorithms were implemented for performance comparisons. As a result of the feature point detection performance analysis, the Shi-Tomasi corner and KAZE algorithm were found that they were robust to the target type, illuminance change, and increase in measurement distance. The displacement measurement accuracy using those two algorithms was also the highest. However, when using natural targets, the displacement measurement accuracy is lower than that of artificial targets. This indicated the limitation in extracting feature points as the resolution of the natural target decreased as the measurement distance increased.
