Monthly variations of cirriped larvae near Oryuk islets off Busan were investigated at four stations from January 2012 to January 2013. Zooplankton was vertically collected, using NORPAC net (mouth 45 cm, mesh 200 μm), from the surface to 1 m above the bottom. 12 species belong to five genera of 4 families were identified including one unidentified species. Cirriped larvae occupied small portion of total zooplankton, ranging 0.02 to 4.1% of total zooplankton densities. The densities varied monthly from 1 inds.m-3 to 715.1 inds.m-3, which was highest in September and lowest in February. Chthamalus challengeri, Balanus glanula, B. improbisus, B. nubilus and Octomeris sulcata were dominant species and accounted for 70.1% of total cirriped larvae. Larval densities of cirripeds between stations were not significantly different (F=0.237, p=0.870). The larval communities were grouped into two groups by cluster analysis. We discussed the distribution patterns of cirriped larvae in relation to oceanographic characteristics in the study area.

Odor problems in urban areas have become a common cause of public complaints. In order to gain a better understanding of odor problems, we investigated the emission characteristics of odorants originating from manholes (n=22) and stormwater catch basins (n=48) (SCBs) around Wangsimni station in Seoul. To this end, concentrations of H2S and NH3 were measured after arbitrarily dividing the whole study area into five different districts. Our measurements were made to allow comparisons between three different criteria: (1) manholes vs. SCBs, (2) temporal variation between morning vs. afternoon, and (3) water content in the sewer system. The average concentration of H2S in manholes and SCB were 2.39 ppm and 0.81 ppm, respectively. In contrast, their NH3 counterparts were 1.86 ppm and 1.02 ppm, respectively. According to the contouring method made to identify spatial distribution characteristics, of odorants a relatively lowland site D was expected to work as a significant emission source in light of the transportation patterns of a sewer system. Moreover, higher concentrations of odorants were prevalent in the afternoon (as the prime time for commercial activities) relative to before noon. If concentration data are converted into odor intensity, H2S was the predominant component exerting controls on the odor pollution in these underground environments.

The feeding habits of Okamejei kenojei were studied using 242 specimens collected from October 2010 to September 2011 in the coastal waters of Gadeok-do, Korea. O. kenojei was carnivorous feeder that consumed mainly shrimps, crabs, and fishes. Its diet also included small quantities of stomatods, cephalopods, amphipods. The size of O. kenojei ranged from 10.4 to 47.4 cm in total length (TL). O. kenojei showed ontogenetic dietary shift. <15.0, 15.0-19.9 cm size classes fed mainly on shrimps and amphipods. 20.0-24.9 cm size class fed mainly shrimps and crabs. Thereafter, shrimps and crabs were decreased with ontogenesis while fishes and cephalopods were increased. Increasing size, the mN/ST were constantly decreased, but mW/ST were constantly increased.

PURPOSES : While driving, drivers are usually limited in communicating with others except for using the horn. Excessive use of the horn may cause noise pollution, quarrels between drivers and pedestrians, damage, etc. This study developed a methodology for environmental adaptation and improvements of vehicle horns. METHODS: In this study, we performed a literature review of previous studies and related technologies regarding the overuse and damage of the horn. The proposed methodology employed the paired comparison method, as well as the semantic differential method. These methods can consider various vehicle horns, such as the Sport Utility Vehicle(SUV) Horn, Van Horn, and Buzzer. In addition, we conducted a factor analysis in order to provide a direction for improvement of future horns. This research provides a means of complimenting existing intellectual property related to vehicle horns. RESULTS: As a result, the most preferred of the selected horns were the Buzzer at 86.7%. In addition, based on the factor analysis, the horns could be classified into pleasantness and comfort factors. The results indicate a positive reaction for various vehicle horns. The horn type and size of the process control have been properly developed considering the position of the vehicle and the surrounding noise measurements. CONCLUSIONS : Based on the proposed methodology, public and private sectors can use fundamental data for reasonable traffic-noise control policies.

국내 대형 조선소 주변해역의 중금속오염 현황을 밝히기 위하여 2010년 여름에 4개의 대형 조선소 주변 11개의 채수정점과 4개의 대조 정점에서 해수 시료를 채취하여 6종의 금속(Cu, Zn, Fe, Cd, Pb, Hg)을 분석하였다. 조선소별 주변해역 수중의 금속을 분석한 결과, (1) 구리(Cu)의 평균 농도는 0.817 ~ 1.638 ㎍/L로 해역환경기준(사람의 건강보호기준 20 ㎍/L, 해양생태계 보호 단기기준 3 ㎍/L)보다 낮았지만, 대조정점에 비하여 1.64 ~ 2.75배의 높은 값을 나타냈다. (2) 아연(Zn)의 평균 농도는 0.228 !~ 0.567 ㎍/L로 해역환경기준(사람의 건강보호기준 100 ㎍/L, 해양생태계 보호 단기기준 34 ㎍/L)보다 낮았지만, 대조정점에 비하여 1.62 ~ 5.91배의 높은 값을 나타냈다. (3) 철(Fe)의 평균 농도는 3.332 ~ 7.410 ㎍/L로 대조정점에 비하여 1.30 ~ 6.75배의 높은 값을 나타냈다. (4) 카드뮴(Cd)의 평균 농도는 0.013 ~ 0.028 ㎍/L로 해역환경기준(사람의 건강보호기준 10 ㎍/L, 해양생태계 보호 단기기준 19 ㎍/L)보다 낮았지만, 대조정점에 비해 1.18 ~ 2.33배의 높은 값을 나타냈다. (5) 납(Pb)의 평균 농도는 0.007 ~ 0.126 ㎍/L로 해역환경기준(사람의 건강보호기준 50 ㎍/L, 해양생태계 보호 단기기준 7.6 ㎍/L)보다 낮았다. (6) 수은(Hg)의 평균 농도는 0.002 ~ 0.004 ㎍/L로 해역환경기준(사람의 건강보호기준 0.5 ㎍/L, 해양생태계 보호 단기기준 1.8 ㎍/L)보다 낮았다. 비록 모든 중금속의 수중 농도가 해역환경기준보다 낮다고 할지라도, 선박 건조작업에 사용되는 구리, 아연, 철과 같은 중금속의 농도가 대조해역에 비해 조선소 주변해역에서 높다는 것은 조선소의 영향에 기인하는 것을 암시한다. 따라서 조선소로부터 각종 오염물질이 해양에 유입되지 않도록 통제하고 해양오염을 방지하는 국가적 차원의 해양환경관리가 필요하다.

난류유동에 의한 소음은 계산비용의 관점에서 음향 상사법을 이용하여 전산유체 기법과 결합해 다양한 해석모델이 연구되고 있다. FW-H 음향상사법을 이용한 유동소음해석의 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있으나, 기존 문헌들의 결과에서는 계산비용의 관점에서 난류유동에 의한 소음성분을 생략하고 있다. 그러나, 최근의 연구에서 유동소음특성에 있어 난류소음의 중요성이 밝혀진바 있다. 본 논문에서는 RANS 난류모델과 투과성 경계면을 이용한 Permeable FW-H 음향상사법을 이용한 난류유동소음해석에 대해 연구하였다. 2D 실린더에 대하여 직접적으로 변동압력을 추출하는 직접법과 난류성분을 고려하지 않은 FW-H 상사법, 또 난류소음의 성분을 포함하는 Permeable FW-H 방법의 경우를 비교하였다. Permeable FW-H 방법을 통해 일반적으로 적용되는 FW-H 방법에서 해석 불가능한 난류에 의한 소음의 영향을 기존의 FW-H 방법과 동일한 계산비용으로 예측할 수 있었고, 적절한 투과성 경계면 설정을 통해 높은 정확도의 해석이 가능했다. Permeable FW-H 방법을 통한 난류유동해석 절차를 확립하였으며, 그 유용성을 확인했다.

연안환경의 영양염 순환에서 저층에서의 영양염 재생산(regeneration)은 주요한 영양염 공급원 중 하나이다. 진해만 저층 영양염의 거동을 살펴보기 위해 2004년부터 2012년까지 9년간 진해만 내 14개 정점의 수질자료를 분석하였다. 저층의 용존무기질소, 인산염인, 규산염규소는 계절적 변동성을 나타내었고, 하계에 가장 높은 농도를 보였다. 특히, 빈산소 수괴(hypoxia) 형성 시기의 평균 영양염 농도는 정상산소상태(normoxia) 시기에 비해 약 2배 더 높게 나타났다. 하계 진해만의 저층 용존무기질소, 인산염인, 규산염규소의 농도는 재생산에 의해 모두 높은 경향을 보였으나, 공간적 농도 분포는 차이를 나타내었다. 용존무기질소와 인산염인은 마산만에서 가장 높은 농도를 보이는 반면 규산염규소는 마산만 뿐만 아니라 진해만 중심부에서도 높은 농도를 나타내었다. 또한 다른 영양염에 비해 규산염규소는 전 계절 동안 저층에서의 재생산이 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 시계열 분석 결과 9년간 용존무기질소의 농도는 약 14 μM에서 6 μM로 뚜렷한 감소를 나타내었다. 용존무기질소의 감소로 인해 진해만 저층의 Si/N 비는 약 1에서 3으로 증가된 것으로 나타났다.

In this study we investigated odor (hydrogen sulfide) dispersion around a cubic building by using commercial FLUENT CFD code. The FLUENT Shear-Stress Transport (hereafter SST) k-ω turbulence model was used to simulate odor dispersion from an odor source. The results were compared with a wind tunnel experiment and other simulation results. SST k-ω turbulence model provided good grounds for making reasonable predictions about the building surface concentrations and concentration profiles of selected leeward positions of the cubic building. It was found that a vent, which was positioned 7 m above the top of the square building center, decreased the plume length lower by 0.73 and increased the plume height by 1.43 compared to roof top vents. It was also found that by increasing the vent height there a corresponding decrease in the maximum dimensionless concentration around the roof surface.

Dentinogenic ghost cell tumor (DGCT) is a rare neoplasm, representing 1.9% to 2.1% of all odontogenic tumors. Peripheral DGCT is a rare tumor with only 25 cases previously described in the English literature. The majority of cases have been reported to occur in the anterior part of the jaws. A rare case of peripheral DGCT is reported, located in the lingual side of the anterior mandible of a 68-year-old man. The patient presented a pedunculated painless growth of 1.5cm in diameter. Radiographically, no bone involvement was found. The lesion was excised and histologically characterized by islands of epithelial cells showing ameloblastoma-like features within fibrous background tissue. Dysplasic dentin and ghost cells with calcifications were frequently observed. Areas showing a connection between tumor cells and the overlying mucosa were also identified.

Community structures and species composition in benthic crustacean around Oryukdo of Busan was investigated using a SCUBA diving in 2011. A total 115 species, 51 families, and 4 taxa were collected during the sampling periods. Species were included 52 species in amphipoda, 49 in decapoda, 8 in isopoda and 6 in thoracica. On cluster analysis, the benthic crustacea community was classified into three groups based on the species composition: group A occurred in spring, group B in autumn and winter and group C in summer. Species composition in benthic crustacean corresponded with the water temperature.

For the purpose of finding out the acoustical characteristics of exterior materials in bridge, analytical studies are performed with boundary elements method by using the commercial program SYSNOISE. Before analysis, to figure out material property, it was conducted experiments of absorption coefficient for absorptive material. And prediction of pressure were conducted I GIRDER type (before & after installation of absorption panel ) and BOX GIRDER type (before & after installation of absorption panel) The results show that when the absorption panel is installed, environment around bridge can help reduce traffic noise. It was proved to be the effective noise reduction counter-plan for a traffic noise in the bridges.

In this study, we investigated the macrobenthic community structure and spatiotemporal variations in Uljin Marine Ranching area, East Sea of Korea. Macrobenthos were collected using a modified van Veen grab sampler from April to September 2013. Total number of species sampled was 345 and mean density was 5,797 ind. m-2, both of which were dominated by the polychaetes. The most dominant species were Spiophanes bombyx (53.64%), followed by Magelona sp.1 (6.96%), Cadella semitorta (2.73%), Lumbrineris longifolia (2.16%) and Alvenius ojianus (2.08%). Cluster analysis and nMDS ordination analysis based on the Bray-Curtis similarity identified 2 station groups. The group 1 (station 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 and 9) was characterized by high abundance of the polychaetes Magelona sp.1, Lumbrineris longifolia, Scoloplos armiger, Praxillella affinis, Maldane cristata and the bivalve Alvenius ojianus, with fine sediment above 30m water depth. On the other hand, the group 2 (station 1, 4, 7 and 10) was numerically dominated by the polychaete Lumbrineriopsis sp. and the bivalve Cadella semitorta, with coarse sediment below 5m water depth. Collectively, the macrobenthic community structure showed a distinct spatial trend, which seemed to be related to the water depth and sediment composition.
