충남 예산지구 활석광상지역에는 선캄브리아기의 유구편마암을 관입하고 쥬라기 흑운모화강암과 백악기의 산성 및 염기성 암맥의 관입을 받은 시대미상의 초염기성암체가 있다. 이 초염기성암체는 주로 사문암이고, 소량의 각섬암과 주로 사문암으로부터 형성된 활석광체를 포함한다. 이 사문암들은 사문석 반정과 layering의 발달정도에 따라 S1 ∼ S5의 5개 암석단위로 구분된다. 그러나 이들의 구성광물 및 화학조성들이 유사한 것으로 보아 사문암의 기원암은 동일마그마 기원의 감람암(dunite와 pyroxene peridotite)으로 해석된다. 사문암의 기원암인 감람암은 유구편마암이 받은 각섬암상의 광역변성작용시에 사문석화작용을 받아 사문암으로 되었고, 이 사문암으로부터의 주 활석화작용은 파쇄대를 따라 상승한 열수에 의한 열수변질작용으로 해석된다.

We studied biblographically on the origin of Zitanxiang which is commonly used at Oriental Traditional and Herbal Drugs Clinic. Results are as follows. We can find out that ; 1. In China, Pterocarpus indicus Wild. and Pterocapus santalinus L. which are duramen of woody parts of the plants of Leguminosae are used as Zitanxiang medicinal stuff. 2. In Korea, Sabina chinensis(L) Antoin (= Juniperus chinensis L.) which is the woody parts of Chinese cypress which is evergreen arbor and one of the plants of Cupressaceae is used as Zitanxiang medicinal stuff. Therefor, it is thought that comparison research have to be studied on these different Zitanxiang medicinal stuffs on the basis of efficacy.

In order to reveal the source of the architectural norm embodied in the first built-form of ChongMyo's Main Building, three analytic types were introduced into research. According to the level of accepting the architectural form of ChongMyo in the Koryo Dynasty, these types were defined by 'newly interpreted form', 'newly introduced form', and 'coventionally accepted form'. Among the first built-form in ChongMyo's Main Building, the form of 'TaeSil' was newly interpreted on the basis of the Tang's realating norm, and the form of 'HyupSil' was newly introduced according to the contemporary trend that had increasingly regarded it as an indispensible form. But the form of 'IkSil' had the different source, that is, the architectural form of ChongMyo in the Koryo Dynasty. After reconstructed by the King ChungSun, that form had been sustained without any change until the end of Koryo Dynasty. In result, that form had been accepted conventionally at the first time of building ChongMyo in the ChoSon dynasty.

The Unite d'Habitation at Marseilles was an experimental project that Le Corbusier had been waiting for since 1920s in order to explore his ideals and visions in mass housing and city planning. As a leader of the first generation members in CIAM, Le Corbusier tried to give a new form and an order to the Unite d'Habitation at Marseilles in both building design and city planning level. The purpose of this research is to investigate the design characteristics of the Unite d'Habitation at Marseilles in three different levels of built environment with a particular emphasis on the process through which an original form is derived from its contextual settings. In the level of city planning, Le Corbusier aimed to reshape traditional low-rise urban housing by deploying several Unites spaciously. Le Corbusier believed that the spacious deployment of Unites would bring us both the functional economy in the city and the natural amenity in the suburbs. As Unite d'Habitation would be called frequently as vertical garden city, the influence of suburban garden city on Unite d'Habitation is apparent. In the building level, the binomial harmony of individual-collectivity was pursued by providing three different public floors and by combining 23 different family unit types in the Unite d'Habitation at Marseilles. In order to visualize the concept of object-type, family units were prefabricated and inserted into the structural frame of the Unite d'Habitation at Marseilles. Two family units are combined to make a three-story section with street corridor in the middle. This three-story section unit is very original as it has access corridor every third floor and each unit could have considerable depth with the help of the living space of two story height. In consideration of formal and plan similarity as well as contextual edivdence, it is concluded that the three-story section of the Unite d'Habitation is derived more from Narkomfin Apartments than from the monastery at Ema or Immuble Villas.

A seismic study combined with well data of a circular oil field in Cass County, Michigan, indicates that the structure's origin may be related to an impact event. The structural closures in the time structure maps and drilling results both show a central uplift. The fault system in the Trempealeau Formation shows a structure similar to other proven astroblemes. Undisturbed layers just beneath the central uplift also provide an evidence of an impact structure. The impact event occurred on the Utica shale of the Late Ordovician age. The subsequent uplifting and erosion formed the missing of some Late Ordovician rocks in the center of the oil field. A delayed isostatic adjustment may resulted in the structural closures of the Silurian and Devonian sedimentary formations which played the role of structural trap as a hydrocarbon reservoir. The diameter of the original crater was at least 2 kilometers. The meteorite seems likely to be as heavy as about 9×10⁴ tons and as large as 36-50 meters in its diameter depending on itscomposition.

하계 대한해협 서수도에는 연직적으로 특성이 서로 다른 세 개의 수괴가 존재한다. 그 중 표층수에 대하여 인접 해역의 해수 특성과 상호 비교함으로써 그 기원과 유로를 추정하였다. 그 결과, 표층수는 동지나해의 대륙붕 상에서 형성된 Kuroshio수와 중국대륙연안수의 혼합수로써, 중국대륙연안수의 영향을 더 많이 받는 것으로 나타났다. 대부분의 표층수는 Kyushu Island의 서쪽 해역, 경도 126˚E와 127˚E 사이 해역과 제주도 동쪽 해역을 거쳐 유입되고, 한국 연안 부근에 있는 일부 표층수는 제주도 서쪽해협을 거쳐 유입된 것으로 나타났다.
