Indonesia is archipelago country and plural society which consist of diverse ethnic groups. This study select Java island and Java houses as a representative housing of Indonesia. The aim of this study is to present a comprehensive overview of traditional houses of Java in Indonesia by examining pre-existing literature. First, the Java House as a microcosm of the universe that shows universal and religious aspects. Furthermore, each building contains spiritual symbolism. These ideological aspects select the location and layout of the towns, villages and buildings, which create an order to the interior space. The space structure of Java housing is characterized by strong juxtaposition between east/west, front/back, public/private, male/female, and open space/ closed space. There is also a hierarchy of space, which were applied in floor level, height of space and lightness. The structure of the roof shows the best formativeness. Depending on the shape of the roof, the function of the building is shown, and also it represents the social rank and religious respect. Joglo's unique formativeness is an icon of the Java architect.

본 연구에서는 난분해성 물질인 액상의 TCE가 영가철 표면에서 반응시 완전히 분해가 되지 않은 상태에서 생성되어지는 부산물인 Cis-DCE와 VC의 톨루엔 분해균주에 의한 처리 가능성을 회분식 실험으로 관찰하였다. 각각 2ppm의 Cis-DCE와 VC에 톨루엔 균주를 주입한 결과 1차기질로 톨루엔을 사용하고 그후에 Cis-DCE와 VC를 제거 하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 동시에 주입시 1차기질로 톨루엔을 사용하는 것은 동일하나 VC를 먼저 사용하고 그후에 Cis-DCE를 제거하며 제거 속도 또한 줄여드는 것으로 나타났다.

Arsenic speciation changes between As(V) and As(III) are subject to changes in accordance with redox conditions in the environment. It is common to find contaminated sites associated with mixed wastes including both organic pollutants and heavy metals. We conducted microcosm experiment under hypothesis that the co-disposed organic pollutants would influence on the arsenic forms and concentrations, via degradation of the organic pollutants and the consequent impact on the redox conditions in soil. Artificially contaminated soil samples were run for 40 days with control samples without artificial contamination. We noticed arsenic in the contaminated soil showed different behaviour compared with the arsenic in the control soil. The findings indicate degradation of organic pollutants in the contaminated soil influenced on the arsenic speciation and concentrations. A further work is needed to understand the process quantitatively. However, we could confirm that degradation of organic pollutants can influence on the abiotic processes associated with geochemical reactions in contaminated soil. Degradation of organic pollutants can increase the mobility and toxicity of arsenic in soil and sediment by changing redox conditions in the geological media and subsequently from As(V) to As(III).

Sphingomonas chlorophenolica ATCC39723 was successfully labeled with the gfp (green fluorescent protein) gene inserted into the pcpB gene by homologous recombination. As the gfp recombinant was easily distinguished from other indigenous organisms, the population of gfp recombinant was monitored after being released into the soil microcosms. Their population density dropped from 10$\^$8/ to 10$\^$6/ (cfu/$m\ell$) in the non-sterilized soil microcosms during the first 6 days. Moreover, the gfp recombinant was not detected even at lower dilution rates after a certain time period. The recombinant, however, survived for at least 28 days in the sterilized soil microcosms. Although the gfp recombinant did not degrade pentachlorophenol (PCP), this experiment showed the possibility of using gfp as a monitoring reporter system for S. chlorophenolica ATCC39723 and potentially other species of Sphingomonas.

Polychlorinated biphenyl are toxic pollutants and their degradation is quite slow in the environment. Recently, interest if bioremediation using PCB-degrading bacteria has increaset,. In a previous report, plant terpenes (p-cymene, (S)-(-)-limonene, ${\alpha}-pynene$, and ${\alpha}-terpinene$) have been found to be utilized by a PCB degrader and to induce the biphenyl dioxygenase gene in pure culture. In this study, Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes KF707, a PCB-degrading Gram-negative soil bacterium, was used to determine whether the terpene stimulation of PCB degrader occurred in the natural environment. First, P. pseudoalcaligenes KF707 was genetically tagged using a transposon with gfp (green fluorescent protein) as a reporter gone. The population dynamics of P. pseudoalcaligenes KF707 harboring gfp gene in a PCB-contaminated environment was examined with or without terpenoids added to the microcosm. About 10-100-fold increase was found in the population of PCB degraders when terpene was added, compared with control (non-terpenes samples and biphenyl added samples). It was proposed that the gfp-monitoring system is very useful and terpenes enhance the survivability of PCB degraders in PCB-contaminated environments.

This study was carried out to investigate the removal of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene, nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorous compounds in the wetland microcosms. Microcosm study indicated that TNT nutrients were more lastly reduced in the anaerobic condition. The major reductive transformation products included 2,4diamino-6-nitrotoluene (2,4-DANT) 2,6diamino-4-nitrotoluene (2,6-DANT) 4diamino-2,6-nitrotoluene (4-ADNT) 2diamino-4,6-nitrotoluene (2-ADNT). The experimental results for nitrogen removal showed that denitrification kom NO$\sub$3//$\^$-/ to NH$_3$ was dominant process at the bottom of marsh, but nitrification from NH$_3$ to NO$\sub$3//$\^$-/ was dominant on the top of marsh.

Nanomaterials are used in a range of fields, including industry, medicine, aerospace, and manufacturing, due to their unique and useful properties. In recent years, nanotechnology has developed rapidly, and the amount of nanomaterials used in various fields has increased consistently. As a result, nanomaterials are released into the aquatic and soil ecosystem, posing potential risks to organisms and environment. These materials can enter the cells and may cause serious damage to organisms. Furthermore, they can be transferred through trophic levels and food web, thereby leading to bioconcentration and biomagnification. In this study, we analyzed the trends in research on food chain transfer of nanomaterials and investigated the techniques used in the research. Although many studies have been underway, there is a need for further advanced studies on higher trophic levels and complex microcosm and mesocosm. Furthermore, study topics should be expanded to include various types of nanomaterials and varied species and trophic levels.

A new method was developed for the rapid analysis of diverse bacterial species in the natural environment. Our method is based on PCR-single-strands-conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) and selective isolation technique of single-stranded DNA. Variable V3 fragments of 16S rDNA were amplified by PCR with bacterial 16S rDNA primers, where one of the primers was biotinylated at the 5'-end. The biotinylated strands of the PCR products were selectively isolated by using streptavidin paramagnetic particles and a magnetic stand, to prevent SSCP analysis producing heteroduplexes from heterogeneous DNA samples. The selected strands were separated by electrophoresis on a polyacrylamide gel, and detected by silver staining. Analysis of PCR products from 8 bacterial strains demonstrated their characteristic DNA band patterns. In addition, changes in the structure of the bacterial community and species diversity in the microcosm treated with phenol could be monitored. After 3 weeks of incubation, phenol and its intermediate, 2-hydroxy-muconic-semialdehyde, were degraded by indigenous bacteria. These dominating bacterial populations were identified as strong bands on an SSCP gel. Therefore, this study provides useful tools for microbial community analysis of natural habitats.

습지를 건설하여 수질 개선의 목적으로 활용하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으나, 인공습지의 대표적인 형태인 연못형(Pond-type)과 소택지형 (Marsh-type)에서 제거되는 양이온의 처리 효율을 비교한 연구는 많지 않다. 본 논문에서는 마이크로코즘 규모로 건설된 인공습지에서 제거되는 양이온들의 처리 효율을 습지 형태 및 이온 별로 비교하는 내용을 다루고 있다. 양이온 중 $NH_4{^+}$, $K^+$, $Mg^{2+}$등은 높은 처리 효율을 보였고, 이는 습지의 식물에 의한 흡수, 토양 흡착 등에 기인한 것으로 보였다. 그러나 연못형 습지의 경우 오히려 $Ca^{2+}$의 방출이 관찰되었으나 그 정확한 기작은 파악할 수 없었다.
