An investigation was conducted to determine limiting nutrients in the bay systems of the southern coastal area of Korea. The elemental composition of C, N, and P in suspended particulate matter was monitored nearly monthly in Chinhae and Koje Bays and seasonally in Deukryang Bay for 2 years. Atomic C:N ratio in particulate matter ranges from 4.3 to 9.6, typical of marine phytoplankton. C:P and N:P ratios vary from the Redfield ratio to 229 (C:P) and 37 (N:P). A constant C:N ratio of 6.87 from regression of particulate C and N concentrations demonstrates that the particulate matter in the systems originates from primary production. C:P and N:P ratios from regression of C on P and N on P are well associated with changes in salinity. The low N:P ratio of 13.1 implies N limitation in the environments of the systems. This seems to result from the low N:P ratio of nutrients released across sediment-water interface. Phytoplankton response, expressed here as the increase of chlorophyll a, to N addition also verifies N limitation for phytoplankton communities. In heavy rainfall season (from June to September), the addition of excessive N via streams into the stratified coastal water proliferates phytoplankton greatly. During the phytoplankton blooms, C:P and N:P ratios are much higher than the Redfield ratio, implying P limitation. This results from the high N:P ratio in nutrients supplied from stream waters. Strong stratification during the blooms also interrupts the supply of nutrients, particularly p, from bottom waters. Dependent upon precipitation, this tendency shows great inter-annual variation.

In this paper, we obtain sufficient conditions for the oscillation of every solution of the difference equation $$x_{n+1}-x_n+\sum_{i=1}^{m}p_ix_{n-k_i}+qx_{n-z}=0,\;n=0,1,2,{\cdots},$$ where $p_i{\in}\mathbb{R}$, $k_i{\in}\mathbb{Z}$ for $i=1,2,{\cdots},m$ and $z{\in}\{-1,0\}$. Furthermore, we obtain sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions of the equation $${\Delta}^rx_n+\sum_{i=1}^{m}p_ix_{n-k_i}=0,\;n=0,1,2,{\cdots},$$ where $p_i{\in}\mathbb{R}$, $k_i{\in}\mathbb{Z}$ for $i=1,2,{\cdots},m$. The results are given terms of the $p_i$ and the $k_i$ for each $i=1,2,{\cdots},m$.

The Purpose of this study deal with some functional realationships in tidal of the Western Coast of Korean Peninsula under equilibrium conditions. The study was carried out by using actual field data meausred at 11 bay observation stations along the Western Coast. The minimum cross section versus the max. tidal prism of mean high water(Ps), the mean tital prism of mean high water(Pm), and the mean tidal prism of mean low water tide (Pn) are correlated. The most dominant results are attained at the A-Ps correlations. Furthermore it is well agreed with O'Briens results for the Pacific Coast of the United Stated. The results derived are as follows. $$A=9.078{\times10^{-4} P_n^{0.865}$$ $$A=3.048{\times10^{-3} P_n^{0.808}$$ $$A=2.30{\times10^{-2} P_n^{0.730}$$ By using those relationships if we know the minimum cross sectional area of the bay, we can easily estimate the tidal prism of the bay.

Let V={(x,y,z):f=z$^{n}$ -npz+(n-1)q=0 for n .geq. 3} be a compled analytic subvariety of a polydisc in $C^{3}$ where p=p(x,y) and q=q(x,y) are holomorphic near (x,y)=(0,0) and f is an irreducible Weierstrass polynomial in z of multiplicity n. Suppose that V has an isolated singular point at the origin. Recall that the z-discriminant of f is D(f)=c(p$^{n}$ -q$^{n-1}$) for some number c. Suppose that D(f) is square-free. then we prove that by Theorem 2.1 .mu.(p$^{n}$ -q$^{n-1}$)=.mu.(f)-(n-1)+n(n-2)I(p,q)+1 where .mu.(f), .mu. p$^{n}$ -q$^{n-1}$are the corresponding Milnor numbers of f, p$^{n}$ -q$^{n-1}$, respectively and I(p,q) is the intersection number of p and q at the origin. By one of applications suppose that W$_{t}$ ={(x,y,z):g$_{t}$ =z$^{n}$ -np$_{t}$ $^{n-1}$z+(n-1)q$_{t}$ $^{n-1}$=0} is a smooth family of complex analytic varieties near t=0 each of which has an isolated singularity at the origin, satisfying that the z-discriminant of g$_{t}$ , that is, D(g$_{t}$ ) is square-free. If .mu.(g$_{t}$ ) are constant near t=0, then we prove that the family of plane curves, D(g$_{t}$ ) are equisingular and also D(f$_{t}$ ) are equisingular near t=0 where f$_{t}$ =z$^{n}$ -np$_{t}$ z+(n-1)q$_{t}$ =0.}$ =0.

The electrical properties of the GaN-based green light emitting diodes(LEDs) with the Mg-doped p-GaN layer activated in $N_2$ or $O_2$ ambient have been compared. For the $N_2$ -ambient activation the current-voltage behavior of LEDs has been found to be improved when the Mg dopants activation was performed in the higher temperature. However, for the $O_2$-ambient activation the current-voltage characteristic has been observed to be enhanced when the Mg dopants activation was carried out in the lower temperature. The minimum forward voltage at 20mA was obtained to be 4.8 V for LEDs with the p-GaN layer activated at $900^{\circ}C$ in the $N_2$ ambient and 4.5V for LEDs with the p-GaN layer treated at $700^{\circ}C$ in the $O_2$ambient, repectively. The forward voltage reduction of the LEDs treated in the $O_2$-ambient may be related to the oxygen co-doping of the p-GaN layer during the activation process. The $O_2$ -ambient activation process is useful for the enhancement of the LED performance as well as the fabrication process since this process can activate the Mg dopants in the low temperature.

Let n ⩾ 2 be an integer, we denote the smallest integer b such that gcd {(ⁿ_k) : b < k < n - b} > 1 as b(n). For any prime p, we denote the highest exponent α such that p^α | n as v_p(n). In this paper, we partially answer a question asked by Hong in 2016. For a composite number n and a prime number p with p | n, let n = a_mp^m + r, 0 ⩽ r < p^m, 0 < a_m < p. Then we have $$v_p\(\text{gcd}\{\(n\\k\)\;:\;b(n)1\}\)=\{\array{1,&&a_m=1\text{ and }r=b(n),\\0,&&\text{otherwise.}}$$

In this paper we give conditions for the existence of, and describe the asymtotic behavior of, radial positive solutions of the nonlinear elliptic equation of Emden-Fowler type with convection term ∆_p u + 𝛼|u|^q-1u + 𝛽x.∇(|u|^q-1u) = 0 for x ∈ ℝ^N, where p > 2, q > 1, N ≥ 1, 𝛼 > 0, 𝛽 > 0 and ∆_p is the p-Laplacian operator. In particular, we determine ${\lim}_{r{\rightarrow}}{\infty}\,r^{\frac{p}{q+1-p}}\,u(r)$ when $\frac{{\alpha}}{{\beta}}$ > N > p and $q\,{\geq}\,{\frac{N(p-1)+p}{N-p}}$.
