The purpose of this study was to select some superior soybean varieties adaptable to growth in the northern parts of the Korean peninsula, and to identify the suitable growing regions of soybean in North Korea. Soybean varieties from South Korea were evaluated with the Chinese locally cultivated varieties as check varieties at two locations, Donggang City of Lianing Province, and at Longjing City of Jilin Province, 2017-2019. A total of 100 soybean varieties from South Korea and three Chinese check varieties were evaluated based on ecological adaptability, and a total of 18 varieties including ‘Suwon 212’ from the Longjing test site as well as a total of 59 genotypes the Donggang test site, were selected for further evaluation in the first experiment year. A total of 12 promising soybean varieties at Longjing and 15 varieties at Donggang that were selected from the previous year, were evaluated at the same sites for ecological adaptability as well as productivity in the second experiment year. A total of nine promising soybean varieties were selected at the test sites, respectively. The nine varieties at each site that were selected from the previous year for the production capacity including flowering date, degree of lodging, yield potential, and disease resistance, were reviewed to evaluate at both sites in the last experiment year. Finally, a total of eight superior varieties, including four at the Longjing site (‘Seonnogkong’, ‘Dajinputkong’, ‘Danweonkong’ and ‘Sinpaldalkong 2’) and the other four at the Donggang site (‘Iksan 13’, ‘Seonnogkong’, ‘Gangil’ and ‘Yeonpung’) were selected. The yield potential of four outstanding soybean varieties selected at the Longjin site was 1.5-2.6t/ha, and that of the other four at the Donggang site was 2.1-2.7t/ha.

Zanthoxylum schinifolium is an important short-term income species and a useful resource with various physiological activities. In this study, the distribution and characteristics of seed-rich individuals of Z. schinifolium trees were analyzed. Seed-rich individuals were selected from three regions in consideration of seed yield and growth factors. As a result of the leaf shape survey, the length and width of the leaves were shorter in Jeju and longer in Geochang and Hadong compared to the average. There were very large differences in seed production between individuals within the Z. schinifolium group. The amount of seeds was higher in Jeju and Hadong than in Geochang. As a result of analyzing the correlation between the seven morphological characteristics, the overall correlation coefficient was in the range of -0.910 ~ 0.933. Total seed mass (TS) and seed weight (SW) showed a strong positive (+) correlation. As a result of the principal component analysis, it was classified into two categories. The first principal component showed a high correlation in the order of total seed weight and total seed amount, and the second principal component showed a high correlation with seed length and tree height. As a result of comparing seed production for two years, it was found that there was no change in production. As a result of examining seed viability using the TTC method, all of Z. schinifolium seeds showed more than 90% vitality. It is judged that the above results will serve as basic data for the development of a new variety of seed-rich Z. schinifolium trees.

PURPOSES : A highway operates in a continuous flow and has restricted access. When an accident occurs on a highway, the impact on the traffic flow is large. In particular, an accident that occurs in a tunnel has a more significant impact than an accident that occurs in a general section. Accordingly, the management agency classifies the tunnel as a dangerous section and manages a tunnel of more than 1000 m using the Tunnel Transportation Management System. The purpose of this study was to select dangerous tunnels that require intensive management for the efficient management of highway tunnels. METHODS : In this study, for the selection of dangerous tunnels for expressways, all highway tunnels were classified into five clusters by characteristics. The traffic accident severity — equivalent property damage only (EPDO) — for each tunnel cluster was derived through a traffic accident analysis. Based on the severity analysis results, the safety performance function (SPF) for each cluster was established, and the accident risk tunnel was selected based on the potential safety improvement (PSI) value of each tunnel calculated using the empirical Bayes (EB) method for each tunnel cluster. RESULTS : As a result of the analysis, accident risk tunnels were selected based on the PSI values of the tunnels for each highway tunnel group. Finally, 55 hazardous tunnels were identified as hazardous tunnels: 13 tunnels in Cluster 1, 3 tunnels in Cluster 2, 15 tunnels in Cluster 3, 18 tunnels in Cluster 4, and 6 tunnels in Cluster 5. CONCLUSIONS : After classifying all 1232 tunnels on the highway into five clusters according to tunnel characteristics, EPDO analysis was performed for each tunnel cluster. To this end, the SPF for each cluster was constructed, and accident risk tunnels were selected based on the PSI value of each tunnel calculated using the EB method for each tunnel cluster. The tunnel cluster was classified as a typical tunnel type. As a result, most of the first and second values were calculated from cluster E (long tunnel cluster).

The ovary undergoes substantial physiological changes along with estrus phase to mediate negative/positive feedback to the upstream reproductive tissues and to play a role in producing a fertilizable oocyte in the developing follicles. However, the disorder of estrus cycle in female can lead to diseases, such as cystic ovary which is directly associated with decline of overall reproductive performance. In gene expression studies of ovaries, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay has been widely applied. During this assay, although normalization of target genes against reference genes (RGs) has been indispensably conducted, the expression of RGs is also variable in each experimental condition which can result in false conclusion. Because the understanding for stable RG in porcine ovaries was still limited, we attempted to assess the stability of RGs from the pool of ten commonly used RGs (18S, B2M, PPIA, RPL4, SDHA, ACTB, GAPDH, HPRT1, YWHAZ, and TBP) in the porcine ovaries under different estrus phase (follicular and luteal phase) and cystic condition, using stable RG-finding programs (geNorm, Normfinder, and BestKeeper). The significant (p < 0.01) differences in Ct values of RGs in the porcine ovaries under different conditions were identified. In assessing the stability of RGs, three programs comprehensively agreed that TBP and YWHAZ were suitable RGs to study porcine ovaries under different conditions but ACTB and GAPDH were inappropriate RGs in this experimental condition. We hope that these results contribute to plan the experiment design in the field of reproductive physiology in pigs as reference data.

생태복원은 생태계의 건강성과 지속성에 있어 생물다양성의 손실을 막을 수 있는 좋은 수단으로 인식되어 있으나 식물종 선정에 관한 환경, 생리·생태요인, 복원목표 설정 등 종합이고 객관적인 기준점이 없어 실행에 옮기는데 애로사 항이 있다. 이에 전문가 그룹의 의견을 종합하는 델파이 기법을 활용하여 생태복원용 식물종을 선정하는데 필요한 평가지표를 개발하였다. 생태복원 등의 전문가를 대상으로 2회에 걸쳐 38부의 설문조사를 시행하여, 복원 대상지를 내륙과 도서 지역으로 나눠 평가지표의 중요도와 우선순위를 분석했다. 중요도 분석 결과, ‘자생식물’이라는 평가지표 가 내륙과 도서 지역에서 모두 평균 4.9로 가장 높았다. 다음 ‘종자확보’, ‘증식’, 활착률’ 순으로 높았다. 내륙의 지표 우선순위는 ‘자생식물’, ‘출현빈도’, ‘활착율’, ‘분포범위’, ‘종자확보’로 도서 지역은 ‘자생식물’, ‘활착율’, ‘출현빈도’, ‘분포범위’, ‘내성’ 순으로 나타났다. 중요도와 우선순위 분석을 수행한 결과 ‘내륙의 중요도 평균값은 4.1, 우선순위 2.9로 도서지역은 중요도 평균값은 4.2, 우선순위 2.9로 기준을 설정하였다. 생태복원용 식물종 선정의 중요도와 우선순 위는 ‘자생식물’이 중요도와 우선순위가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 다음은 ‘종자확보’, ‘활착율’, ‘지형’, ‘증식’, ‘내 성’, ‘토양조건’, ‘생육특성’, ‘천이초기’, ‘분포범위’, ‘출현빈도’, ‘발아율’이 중요도와 우선순위가 낮은 하위 그룹으로 분류되었다. 가장 낮은 지표는 ‘천이 최종단계’, ‘천이장기’, ‘천이중기’, ‘뿌리’, ‘번식’, ‘토양’, ‘성상’, ‘기술’, ‘경관’, ‘기후’, ‘발아율’로 구분되었다. 이에, 생태복원용 식물종 선정을 위해 객관적 검증을 통한 생태복원용 자생식물 종 선정을 위한 평가지표로 복원사업에 활용되기를 기대한다.

고품질의 작물을 재배하기 위해 광은 필수적인 환경조건이 다. 겨울철에는 다른 계절에 비해 일사량이 저조하므로 보광 처리를 이용해 작물의 생육과 수확량을 증대시킬 수 있다. 본 연구는 약광기 동안 고추 온실재배를 위한 경제적인 보광 광 원을 선발하기 위해 수행되었다. 풋고추(Capsicum annuum ‘Super Cheongyang’)는 2019년 9월 5일에 정식하였다. 보광 처리는 2020년 1월 1일부터 2020년 3월 31일까지 수행되었 다. White LED(R:G:B = 5:3:2, W LED), RB LED(red:blue = 7:3, RB LED), 고압나트륨등(high pressure sodium lamp, HPS)을 광원으로 사용하였다. 무처리를 대조구로 사용하였 다. 고추의 초장, SPAD, 마디 수는 보광 광원에 따른 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 그러나 분지 수는 RB LED 광원에서 가장 많 았다. 또한 보광은 고추의 광합성을 증가시켰으며, 특히 RB LED에서 보광기간 동안 가장 높은 광합성률을 보였다. 또한 고추의 수확량은 보광처리에서 증가하였고, RB LED는 다른 광원에 비해 가장 높은 수확량을 보였다. 소비전력은 W LED 가 가장 높았고 HPS 조명이 가장 낮았다. 경제적인 측면에서 RB LED를 이용한 보광처리는 다른 광원에 비해 높은 경제성 을 가졌다. 결론적으로 이러한 결과는 고추 온실에서 약광기 동안 보광 광원으로 RB LED를 사용하는 것이 수확량과 경제 성을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

A radioactive complex disaster refers to a situation in which large-scale natural and social disasters such as earthquakes, fires, and chemical incidents occur in addition to nuclear power plants accident simultaneously. For the safe evacuation of residents, protective equipment must be prepared appropriately and sufficiently. We presented effectiveness, sufficiency, and versatility as selection criteria for choosing the essential protective equipment. The results of the survey of residents and local public officials suggested that masks, radioactivity meters, protective buses, and air purifiers have high priorities. Finally, through consultation with central government officials, masks, measuring instruments, and adsorption filters in protective buses were presented as prototypes. These items can effectively protect the people even in the event of a radioactive complex disaster.

As the number of nuclear power plants whose design life has expired worldwide increases, the attempts are continuing to complete the project of nuclear back-end cycle, the last task of the nuclear industry. Decontamination is essential in the process of dismantling nuclear facilities and restoration sites to remove all or some of the regulatory controls from an authorized facility. Among radioactive wastes, particularly contaminated soil is characterized by difficult physical decontamination because radionuclides are adsorbed between soil particles, that is, pores. Therefore, chemical decontamination is mainly used, which has the disadvantage of generating a lot of secondary waste. In order to overcome these disadvantages, an eco-friendly soil decontamination process is being developed that can drastically reduce the amount of secondary waste generated by using supercritical carbon dioxide. Supercritical carbon dioxide can easily control its physical properties and has both liquid and gas properties. However, since supercritical carbon dioxide is non-polar, additives are needed to extract polar metal ions, which are the goal of decontamination. Therefore, ligand with both CO2-philic and metal binding regions was selected. In previous studies, the decontamination efficiency of soil was evaluated by reacting contaminated soil with solid ligand and co-ligand at once. When solid ligands were used, the decontamination efficiency was lower than expected, which was expected because chemical substances were somewhat difficult to exchange in the closed process. In this study, in order to increase the efficiency of the decontamination process, the need for a process of liquefying ligand and continuously flowing it has been raised. Therefore, a co-solvent that dissolves well at the same time in SCCO2, ligand, and co-ligand was selected. In the selection process, a total of eight substances were selected by dividing into six polar substances and two non-polar substances through various criteria such as economic feasibility, eco-friendliness, and harmlessness. Thereafter, ethanol was finally selected through solubility evaluation for SCCO2 and additives. It is expected that a more effective decontamination process can be constructed when the additive is liquefied using a solvent selected from the results of this study.

The manufactured nuclear fuel assembly is loaded into the nuclear reactor after the core design, and is finally discharged to the wet storage pool after depletion for 3 cycles. The discharged spent nuclear fuel is transported and stored in a dry storage system at the on-site of the nuclear power plant, which is cooled by natural convection, and undergoes final disposal or reprocessing through an intermediate dry storage facility. In this series of processes, the characteristics of the final product, the spent fuel, vary depending on the environmental conditions, so it is essential to manage each history data to verify the long-term integrity of the spent nuclear fuel. In this paper, safety information on spent nuclear fuel is described in order to establish technical requirements that should be considered in each stage of storage, transport, reprocessing, and disposal of spent nuclear fuel. Comprehensive safety information on spent nuclear fuel is basically calculated from basic information that considers characteristic information that can be obtained through the manufacture and design of nuclear fuel assemblies, operation history in a nuclear reactor, and location history in a wet storage pool. It can be divided into secondary production information (SF Burnup, Nuclide Inventory, etc.) and tertiary integrity-related information obtained through cladding inspection during spent fuel storage. KHNP produces this multi-layered information according to the production stage and manages it through the comprehensive management system of the spent nuclear fuel, and safety information with some errors is not only improved through re-verification but also continuously updated. In this paper, the spent nuclear fuel safety information was derived based on various information calculated in the entire process of being discharged and managed in a wet storage pool, including new fuel manufacturing information and depletion history. Such safety information will be used as basic data for long-term safe management of spent nuclear fuel, and will be continuously produced and managed. In the future, additional discussions will be held on the safety information of the spent nuclear fuel through consultation with KORAD and regulatory agencies.

In accordance with the Enforcement Decree of the Act on Physical Protection and Radiological Emergency, operators of Nuclear Power Plants (NPP)s must conduct full cyber security exercise once a year and partial exercise at least once every half year. Nuclear operators need to conduct exercise on systems with high attack attractiveness in order to respond to the unauthorized removal of nuclear or other radioactive material and sabotage of nuclear facilities. Nuclear facilities identify digital assets that perform SSEP (Safety, Security, and Emergency Preparedness) functions as CDA (Critical Digital Assets), and nuclear operators select exercise target systems from the CDA list and perform the exercise. However, digital assets that have an indirect impact (providing access, support, and protection) from cyber attacks are also identified as CDAs, and these CDAs are relatively less attractive to attack. Therefore, guidelines are needed to select the exercise target system in the case of unauthorized removal of nuclear or other radioactive material and sabotage response exercise. In the case of unauthorized removal of nuclear or other radioactive material, these situations cannot occur with cyber attacks and external factors such as terrorists must be taken into consideration. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the list of CDAs that terrorists can use for cyber attacks among CDAs located in the path of stealing and transporting nuclear material and conduct intensive exercise on these CDAs. A typical example is a security system that can delay detection when terrorists attack facilities. In the case of sabotage exercise, a safety-related system that causes an initiating event by a cyber attack or failure to mitigate an accident in a DBA (Design Basis Accident) situation should be selected as an exercise target. It is difficult for sabotage to occur through a single cyber attack because a nuclear facility has several safety concepts such as redundancy, diversity. Therefore, it can be considered to select an exercise target system under the premise of not only a cyber attack but also a physical attack. In the case of NPPs, it is assumed that LOOP (Loss of Offsite Power) has occurred, and CDA relationships to accident mitigation can be selected as an exercise target. Through exercise on the CDA, which is more associated with unauthorized removal of nuclear or other radioactive material and sabotage of nuclear facilities, it is expected to review the continuity plan and check systematic response capabilities in emergencies caused by cyber attacks.

Elite trees of evergreen oaks (Quercus glauca, Quercus acuta, Quercus salicina, and Quercus gilva) were selected from Jeju Island and Wando Island. Elite trees were carried out by modifying the tree selection criteria. Elite trees were selected by height, DBH, clear length, crown diameter, leaf length, and leaf depth. Regarding height, Q. acuta was the highest, and the other three tree species were similar. Clear length showed the same trend as height. In the case of Q. glauca, height showed a positive correlation with DBH, crown diameter and leaf depth. In the case of Q. acuta, positive correlations were shown with all characteristics of DBH, and correlation analysis between DBH and crown diameter, and leaf length and leaf depth also showed positive correlations. In the Pearson correlation coefficient of Q. salicina, height showed a positive correlation with DBH. In the case of Q. gilva, height showed a positive correlation with DBH (0.539). As a result of analyzing the principal components for each of the six growth characteristics, the four species were divided into two principal components with an eigenvalue of 1 or higher, and the cumulative explanatory power was 57% or more. Based on the principal component results, it was possible to confirm the relationship between growth and trait characteristics by species. Still, it was not easy to understand the relationship among each selection tree, so a cluster analysis was performed using the principal component score. Based on the distance levels 5.0 and 6.0 of the selection tree of each species, they were classified into 4-5 clusters. It is judged that the above results can be used as data for the selection of elite trees of evergreen oaks.
