The bacterial community of water stream, soil and guano in Gossi cave was examined by using PCR amplified the 16S rDNA-denaturing gradient gel electrophoyesis (DGGE). In this study, the genetic diversity and the similarity of bacterial community between open area and non - open area toy cave tour were investigated, and the seasonable variation pattern was compared each other. DGGE is attractive technique, as it sepayate same length dsDNA according to sequence variation typical 16S rDNA genes. The diversity and similarity of bacterial community in cave was analyzed by GC341f and PRUN518r primer sets foy amplification of V3 region of eubacteria 16S rDNA. The specific DGGE band profile of the cave water gives the possibility that the specific bacterial cell can be adapting to the specific cave environment and living in the cave. The DGGE band profiles of all samples with guano were compared and analyzed by image analyzer, in which mutual band profile was compared to be and the band intensity of guano was the highest. From these result, it is thought that the guano was main nutrient source and influenced on the community structure of the cave environment where is nutritionally limited. Pseudomonas sp. NZ060, Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes, uncultured Variovorax sp. and soli bacterium NS7 were identified to be on some sample from analysing DNA sequence of some DGGE band.

1. Stafford's Cave, named by the miners because a former visitor, Mr. Stafford, broke his leg in it, is the most northern of the three caves. The entrance lies concealed in the undergrowth, but is otherwise wide and open. A steep conical shaft leads down for a depth of about 80 ft from the floor of the cave; at the bottom, rammed in between the two walls, lies a great block of limestone below which a rivulet streams forth, flowing through the cave, which runs from east; in the cave it is joined by a little tributary.(omitted)

The stone caves in Korea, though they were first influenced by Chinese cave temples, were not made same with their predecessors in style. Nearly all Korean stone caves are the simulated ones built artificially, and they are divided into the following: A. The caves that were made up with several pieces of natural rocks with some wood works done over them to cover the open spaces between the rocks. B. Wood works were added in front of the rock-cut images of Buddha in order to construct the cave. C. The men-made caves Suk-kul-am in Kyung-ju is well-known among the above kind of the caves. In short, Korean stone caves have their distinction in which they were inspired by the Indian and Chinese examples and developed their own styles to meet the specific conditions and restraints of the Korean mountains. The extant Silla cave temples are classified in the following four groups: 1) The type of Shin-sun-sa(神仙寺) at Kyung-ju 2) The type of Ka-heung-ri cave(可興里) at Yong-ju(榮州) 3) The type of Kun-wi cave(軍威) 4) The type of Suk-kul-am(石窟庵) at Kyung-ju

This study is basic research to present the activation of cave tourism. So first of all for establishing of this study, we examined the distribution characteristics of natural caves and monument caves. The results of this study are as follows; First, monument caves concentrate upon Gangwon-do and Jeju-do. Second, open caves concentrate upon Gangwon-do and Chungcheongbuk-do. Third, typical linkage characteristics of tourism resources surrounding open caves are very high in natural tourism resources. Fourth, It is necessary to develop tourism route though the linkage with other tourism resources. But this study have been partial and fragmentary. in order to increase the number of tourists, we should make them curious about the specific region by presenting the unique characteristics of the region, for example its cultural, social, recreational etc. in other words, in order to attract the tourists open caves should differentiate from other open caves.

This study aims to validate the effectiveness of CAVE system with an Arm-Master in the evaluation of virtual prototypes. A virtual kitchen with a refrigerator was presented in the CAVE system. Subjects put in and pull out virtual objects by using the Arm-Master. Twelve subjects, six males and six females, participated in the six experimental conditions : three types of refrigerator door grips and two reaction forces. After each trial, subjects evaluated a door grip of the virtual refrigerator in terms of easiness of operation, similarity in force, presence etc. The results show the mean values of vortical-type door grips are greater than the horizontal pocket-type door grip. Also the subjects preferred 5N in the reaction force of the Arm-Master rather than 15 N when they open and close virtual door. Unexpectedly, female subjects significantly marked low scores in the evaluation terms compared ruth mali subjects. It explains the Arm-Master should be modified much more if it works effectively in design evaluation.

동굴은 지하에 있는 동공으로서 미지의 세계이며 암흑의 세계이다. 예로부터 인간은 이 동굴의 대하여 공포심과 신비스러움을 동시에 느끼면서 생활하였다. 그 당시 동굴의 이용가치는 매우 작았으나 인간에게는 매우 중요한 장소로서 동굴의 위치와 규모, 주변환경에 따라서 동굴을 단순히 주거지, 피신처, 심신수련장 정도로 이용할 수밖에 없었다.(중략)

Many of the familiar roadside signs advertising caves open to the public carry the phrase, “Come underground and cool off”. This is reasonable advice, for during the heat of summer the temperature of these caves is indeed pleasantly cool. If the principal tourist season were in the winter instead of the summer, however, the signs would probably read, “Come underground and warm up”, for in winter these same caves are far warmer than the surface. Cave temperatures are nearly constant throughout the year.

A cave starts to be destructed and damaged as soon as it's open to the public. Due to many convenience facilities for tour visitors, it's gradually polluted. For example, lamplight causes green and black mold while temperature rise caused by many tourists and lamplight brings vatting and exfoliation. In addition, visitors'reckless behavior have caused water pollution and destructed cave creatures' habitat.

운영중인 철도패키지 관광상품중 관광동굴이 포함된 철도관광상품의 특성을 살펴보았다. 모든 상품이 당일 또는 1박정도의 철도노선 주변에 위치한 자연관광자원과 주로 연계된 상품 특성을 보였다. 철도관광상품의 이용활성화를 위한 방안으로 보다 다양한 시장세분화가 요구되며 적극적인 홍보전략이 필요한 것으로 나타났으며 패키지 상품의 차별화도 고려해야 할 것이다. 또한 철도관광상품에 포함된 지자체의 경우 수요관광객에 대한 질적인 서비스 향상과 지역간 관광협력 네트워크구축이 이루어져야 할 것이다. 철도관광상품을 이용한 경험이 있는 관광객에 대한 만족도와 경험하고자 하는 예비관광객에 대한 수요조사도 아울러 필요하다.
