  • The temperature of subsea pipeline, approximately as high as $100^{\circ}C$, is significantly higher than the temperature of surrounding sea water and sediment. In this reason, heat can be lost from the subsea pipeline to cause serious operation problem. Therefore it is important that the subsea pipeline must be designed to ensure that heat loss is small enough. Heat loss of unburied pipeline is higher than buried pipeline. For that purpose, trenching and backfilling system is a commonly used method for maintaining flow assurance in subsea pipeline installation. For this commonly used method, knowing thermal conductivity of backfill is essential to protect a heat loss of pipeline. This paper presents thermal conductivity of backfill soil using laboratory model test and numerical analysis for various backfill. In conclusion, it can be seen that higher the sand content of the man-made backfill sample, the higher the thermal conductivity. On the other hand, as the water content increases, the thermal conductivity becomes smaller.

  • 국내의 사면안정평가는 국토교통부, 국민안전처, 산림청 등의 주요 기관에서 사면을 구성하고 있는 토양특성과 사면경사 등을 평가할 수 있는 기준을 마련하고 있다. 대부분 경우 이 기준을 가지고 자연사면의 안정성에 대한 전반적인 평가가 이루어지고 있다. 하천관리에서는 다양한 요소들을 고려하여 계획이 수립되고 실행되고 있으며 이 중 산지와 기타 지역에서 유입유사는 그 정도에 따라 하천의 통수능력 감소와 하천생태계 교란 등의 많은 영향을 미치고 있다. 이러한 이유에서 유사는 하천관리에 있어 매우 중요한 관리 대상이다. 그러나 현재 평가기준을 이용하여 사면의 붕괴 및 취약정도를 판단할 수 있으나 유역의 유사발생여부를 평가하기에는 상당한 오류를 가지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 사면평가기준을 통한 1차적인 평가와 강우로부터 발생하는 토양침식과 퇴적을 분석 결과를 적용한 종합적인 2차적인 평가를 수행하였다. (1)기존에 사용하고 있는 사면안정평가기준을 가지고 대상유역인 금호강유역의 토양특성에 대한 등급을 분류한다. (2)토층, 토지이용, 빈도별 강우자료 등 다양한 인자를 고려할 수 있는 C-SEM(Cell-based Sediment Erosion Model)을 이용하여 침식 및 퇴적 깊이를 계산한다. (3)사용하고 있는 평가기준과 침식 및 퇴적깊이에 대한 분석결과를 조합하여 금호강유역에서의 유사발생 평가를 위한 지도를 작성한다. 이 연구는 국가에서 제공하고 있는 유역관련 자료를 이용하여 대상유역에서 유사발생을 평가하고 유사발생 관련인자를 대상으로 평가기준을 제안하였다.

  • 최근 우리나라에서는 기후변화에 따른 이상기후로 인하여 홍수와 가뭄 등 자연 재해의 빈도가 증가하는 등 사회, 경제, 환경 등 다양한 분야에 영향을 받고 있다. 또한 우리나라는 기후변화와 더불어 강우의 계절적 특징상 강우량의 편중현상이 발생하므로 물 관리의 어려움이 크다. 이러한 상황에서 수자원의 미래 변화에 관한 연구는 필수적이며, 본 연구에서는 안동댐 유역을 대상 유역으로 하여 댐유입량과 유사량의 RCP 시나리오에 따른 변화 분석을 실시하였다. 댐유입량은 수자원의 이용에 있어서 직접적인 연관이 있는 중요한 요소이며, 유사량 또한 수자원의 효용가치를 증가시키기 위해 제어해야할 중요한 요소이다. 경상북도 안동시에 위치한 다목적댐인 안동댐은 유역면적이 $1,584km^2$이고, 총 저수용량은 $1,248\;10^6m^3$으로 용수공급 및 발전, 관광지 등으로 이용되고 있다. 안동댐 유역의 RCP 시나리오에 따른 변화 분석을 실시하기 위해, 분포형 수문모형인 SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool) 모형을 이용하였다. RCP 시나리오를 적용하기 전, ASOS 관측자료를 이용하여 2010-2017 기간을 모의하고 2010년을 모형의 안정화 기간으로 두고, 2011-2017년에 대해 검보정을 실시한 후, RCP 시나리오에 따른 모의를 실시하였다. RCP 시나리오는 기후변화센터에서 제공하는 RCP 4.5와 RCP 8.5 시나리오를 이용하였으며, 2010-2099 기간에 관하여 SWAT 모형을 모의하고, 2010년을 모형의 안정화 기간, 2011-2040 기간을 2025s, 2041-2070 기간을 2055s, 2071-2099 기간을 2085s로 두어 결과를 ASOS 관측자료를 이용한 결과와 비교 분석하였다.

  • To study the biodiversity of bacterial species, here we report indigenous prokaryotic species of Korea. A total of 23 bacterial strains affiliated to the class Alphaproteobacteria were isolated from various environmental sources including seaweeds, seawater, fresh water, wetland/marsh, tidal sediment, plant roots, sewage and soil. Considering higher than 98.8% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities and formation of a well-defined phylogenetic clade with named species, it was confirmed that each strain belonged to the predefined bacterial species of the class Alphaproteobacteria. There is no official report of these 23 species in Korea; 20 species of 16 genera (Mameliella, Yangia, Paracoccus, Ruegeria, Loktanella, Phaeobacter, Dinoroseobacter, Tropicimonas, Lutimaribacter, Litoreibacter, Sulfitobacter, Roseivivax, Labrenzia, Hyphomonas, Maricaulis, Thalassospira) in the order Rhodobacterales and 3 species of a single genus (Brevundimonas) in the order Caulobacterales. Gram-staining, cell morphology, basic biochemical characteristics, isolation sources, optimum temperature, growth media, and strain IDs are detailed in the species description as well as Table 1.

  • 토사재해는 토사로 인해 발생하는 재해로 정의되며, 일반적으로 우기(rainy season)에 주로 발생한다. 또한, 강우로 인해 발생하는 토양침식(soil erosion)과 강우 및 지진에 의해 나타나는 산사태로 인한 토석류(debris flow)가 토사재해의 주요 원인으로 꼽힌다. 이러한 재해로 인하여 하천 및 호소의 수질 저하, 토양유실에 따른 농경지 감소 등 여러 문제가 발생하고 있다. 특히, 댐으로 유입되는 토사는 사수역(dead storage)을 증가시키고, 발전용 댐의 경우 토사재해가 발전설비 마모 등을 일으킴에 따라 발전효율을 감소시키기도 한다. 더욱이, 기후변화로 인하여 강우량 및 강우강도가 증가하고, 최근 한반도에서는 지진의 강도와 빈도 또한 증가함에 따라 토사재해의 잠재적 위험성을 증대시키고 있다. 따라서 댐 유역에서의 토사 유입에 관한 정량적 예측을 포함한 종합적인 댐 토사 관리기술 및 대책이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 현재 수질 악화로 인해 발전이 중단된 도암댐을 대상으로 댐으로의 토사 유입량을 분석하고자 토양침식과 토석류의 정량적 예측이 가능하고, 각각의 물리적 과정을 고려하는 물리기반 모형을 활용하였다. 토사재해의 주요 원인인 강우와 지진에 대해 미래에 발생 가능한 시나리오를 작성하고, 시나리오별 토사 유입량과 유입 비율을 정량적으로 산정하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 유역 내 토사재해로 인한 피해 예방기술 및 댐 유지관리와 운영을 위한 기초 자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

  • The fungal-like family Saprolegniaceae (Oomycota), also called "water mold," includes mostly aquatic saprophytes as well as notorious aquatic animal pathogens. Most studies on Saprolegniaceae have been biased toward pathogenic species that are important to aquaculture rather than saprotrophic species, despite the latter's crucial roles in carbon cycling of freshwater ecosystems. Few attempts have been made to study the diversity and ecology of Saprolegniaceae; thus, their ecological role is not well-known. During a survey of oomycetes between 2016 and 2021, we investigated the diversity and distribution of culturable Saprolegniaceae species in freshwater ecosystems of Korea. In the present study, members of Saprolegniaceae were isolated and identified at species level based on their cultural, morphological, and molecular phylogenetic analyses. Furthermore, substrate preference and seasonal dynamics for each were examined. Most of the species were previously reported as animal pathogens; however, in the present study, they were often isolated from other freshwater substrates, such as plant debris, algae, water, and soil sediment. The relative abundance of Saprolegniaceae was higher in the cold to cool season than that in the warm to hot season of Korea. This study enhances our understanding of the diversity and ecological attributes of Saprolegniaceae in freshwater ecosystems.

  • During a comprehensive investigation of indigenous prokaryotic species in Korea, 20 and one bacterial strains assigned to the phyla Bacillota and Verrucomicrobiota, respectively, were isolated from diverse environmental habitats, including soil, mud, tidal flat, seawater, sand, sediment, brackish water, and healthy human urine. Based on their high 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities (>98.7%) and the formation of robust phylogenetic clades with their closest related reported species, each strain was assigned to an independent and predefined bacterial species. Since there were no published or official reports regarding these 21 isolates in Korea, they - 20 species of four families in two orders of the phylum Bacillota and one species of the phylum Verrucomicrobiota - have been reported as unrecorded species in Korea. In addition, Gram staining, colony and cell morphology, basic biochemical characteristic, isolation source, and strain ID of each species are also described in the species description sections.

  • During screening for indigenous prokaryotic species in Republic of Korea in 2021, a total of 21 bacterial strains assigned to the phylum Bacteroidota were isolated from a variety of environmental habitats including pine cone, seaweed, soil, sea sediment, brackish water and moss. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity value of more than 98.7% and formation of a robust phylogenetic clade with the type strain of the closest bacterial species, it was found that the 21 strains belong to independent and recognized bacterial species. There has been no official report that the identified 21 species have been isolated in Republic of Korea up to date. Therefore, 16 species in six genera of two families in the order Flavobacteriales, two species in two genera of two families in the order Cytophagales, one species in one genus of one family in the order Chitinophagales and two species in one genus of one family in the order Sphingobacteriales are proposed as unrecorded species of the phylum Bacteroidota isolated in Republic of Korea. Their Gram reaction, colony and cell morphology, basic phenotypic characteristics, isolation source, taxonomic status, strain ID and other information are described in the species descriptions.

  • In 2021, a total of 27 bacterial strains were isolated from soil, tree bark, moss, wetland, sea sediment, tidal flat, seawater and seaweed within Republic of Korea. Based on the analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence (>98.7% sequence similarity), these isolates were assigned to the class Alphaproteobacteria as unrecorded species in Korea. The 27 strains were classified into the 10 families: Maricaulaceae of the order Caulobacterales; Brucellaceae, Methylobacteriaceae, Nitrobacteraceae and Rhizobiaceae of the order Hyphomicrobiales; Micropepsaceae of the order Micropepsales; Rhodobacteraceae of the order Rhodobacterales; Azospirillaceae of the order Rhodospirillales; and Erythrobacteraceae and Sphingomonadales of the order Sphingomonadaceae. There is no official report of these 27 species in Korea. Therefore, we report 27 isolates as unrecorded species, and described isolation sources, Gram-stain reactions, physiological and biochemical properties and morphologies of these strains.
