Social geography in Korea has been studied centering around urban social geography which has been developed mainly in English world, and then there have been a few concepts and theories that were tested in the rural social geography of Korean rural landscape. This article tried to grasp the conceptual basis of German social geography, and had views on the rural social geography in the relent English world. As a result, the author concluded that the rural landscape would be a representation of rurality, a component of local and national identity, and thought to be not only a physical reality but social, mental, cultural reality On the basis of this consideration, the author explored major concepts which would correspond with the universality and speciality of Korean rurality. They are as follows: 'lineage group' as a geographical socio-group, the 'regionalization' by social groups, and 'the territoriality of settlement' as a social space.

In this study, the phylogenetic relationship of Korean Hydrangea was evaluated by using sequenced three chloroplast regions and ITS region, including the 7 taxa. The result of phylogenetic analysis indicated that Korean Hydrangea, 7 taxa formed the monophyletic group. This analysis also revealed that subsect. Macrophyllae of Korea was separated into two groups; H. serrata f. acuminate and H. macrophylla group. The H. serrata f. acuminta group was included with H. serrata f. buergeri and H. serrata f. fertilis. These three species form a monophyletic clade, with no significant differences between their nucleotide sequences. The H. serrata f. acuminta group showed a monophyletic group with H. serrata f. buergeri and H. serrata f. fertilis and there is significant differences between their nucleotide sequences. H. macrophylla group was an independent clade distinguished by H. serrate f. acuminate group. Subsect. Petalanthe, Heteromallae and Calyptranthae form a monophyletic group. H. petiolaris which is located in Subsect. Calyptranthae was separated into two subgroups; First subgroup: Jeju island (except for Mt. Halla) and Second subgroup: Ulleung island and Japan. Additional studies of two subgroups of H. petiolaris should be conducted a geographical study and add more samples.

The main purpose of this study is to identify the determinants of electricity import and export in 26 European Union countries using the Spatial durbin model(SDM). In particular, we would like to mainly explain it based on the amount of power generated by each energy source. Not just the usual way of constructing a weighting matrix based on contiguity, we adopt a weighting method based on the proportion of trade among countries with connected electricity systems. Moreover, the electricity systems of European countries are directly and indirectly connected, which is reflected in the weighting matrix. According to the results, nuclear power has a positive effect on exports and a negative effect on imports, and an increase in wind and solar power has a positive effect on both exports and imports by increasing power system instability. While Korea is unable to trade electricity due to geopolitical conditions, the results of this study are expected to provide implications for energy policies.

This study aims to make a research on the secondary school education of geography and the system of teacher training in Belgium, focused on the case of Francophone Community. What has been made clear by this research can be summed up as follows. The first two years of the secondary school offer two hours of 'environment education', per week, which can be categorized into the learning of living geography, in that at this stage students learn how to observe the geographic phenomena in their daily life and pigeonhole them. The two years of the second stage of the secondary school offer one hour of 'world geography' which actually is focused on the district of Europe and Russia. The two years of the third stage of the secondary school offer an advanced course of geography which aims to teach systematically the physical geography and the human geography. A remarkable change in geographic education in Belgium is that in the wake of the Revision Act of the secondary school education, textbooks were replaced by other teaching manuals adapted to the regional condition by the teachers. This may result in a wide gap of achievements in geography according to the conditions of educational establishments. Another notable change is that the stress of geographic education tends to be placed on the ability of acquiring practical geographic knowledge rather than the geographic information itself. And it is also another marked tendency that most learning activities in geography class are conducted on the basis of student-centered and the method of investigation. Teachers of the lower secondary schools in Belgium are trained in the School of Education as multi-major teachers, such as a teacher for biology-chemistry-geography or a teacher for history-sociology-geography. Teachers of the higher secondary school education are trained in the Department of Teacher Education in universities as solo-major teachers in that they are required to know more deeply to teach an advanced course of geography in the higher secondary schools. To improve the teacher education many folds of policies are adopted. One is that many in-service teachers are officially put into services of guiding and teaching teacher training. Another is that faculty members in charge of teacher training course are trying to level up the qualifications of teachers by rigorous disciplining.

본 논문에서는 배전분야 설비관리 시스템을 대상으로 배전설비 고장시 GIS 기능을 이용하여 고장설비를 예측할 수 있는 방법과 구현 실례를 소개하고자 한다. 배전설비관리를 위한 지리정보 데이터 모델은 가공과 지중, 전기와 비전기, 점형과 선형의 특성을 가지는 배전설비의 특성을 분석하여 모델링된다. 모델링의 결과 생성된 데이터베이스는 실세계에 존재하는 대부분의 객체에 대한 정보를 포함하고 있으므로 매우 크고 그 구조 또한 복잡하다. 그러므로 응용프로그램이 필요로 하는 데이터를 추출하기 위하여 많은 시간이 요구된다. 그러나 고장복구업무를 위한 시스템은 사용자의 만족도를 위하여 추론의 정확성과 더불어 응답속도를 최소화하는 것이 필수조건이다. 이를 위하여 GIS 데이터베이스 모델을 좀 더 개량할 필요가 있으며, 본 논문에서는 이에 대한 한가지 방안으로 배전설비의 GIS 모델의 축약된 형태인 관계형 데이터베이스 모델을 제시한다. 고장점 추론은 이렇게 만들어진 축약모델을 이용하여 진행되며 고장신고 고객별로 회선, 개폐기, 변압기, 인입주 등 정보를 추출하고 추출된 설비들의 계통상 위치의 유사성을 추론하여 최종 예측점을 파악한다.

한전에서는 전력설비의 효율적인 관리를 위하여 일찌기 배전분야에 GIS를 도입하여 신배전정보시스템(NDIS : New Distribution Information System)을 구축, 시범운영을 마치고 전국에 단계적으로 확대운영하고 있다. GIS를 업무에 활용하기 위해서는 설비도면의 입력이 선행되어야 하나 이를 수작업에 의존할 경우 많은 비용과 시간이 소요될 뿐만 아니라 입력자의 숙련정도에 따라 자료의 정확도가 달라지게 되므로, 이러한 문제점들을 근본적으로 해결하고자 설비의 위치, 심볼, 계통연결, 속성자료 등을 컴퓨터로 자동인식 입력시켜 수작업을 최소화하는 기법 및 적용연구가 필요하며, 특히 국가기본도를 Base Map으로 사용함에 따른 상대오차 보정문제도 해결되어야 한다. 본 개발은 변전소에서 전력수용가까지의 전력공급설비를 나타내는 배전설비도면에서 도면내 주요 설비인 전주와 전선을 인식하는 방법 즉, 반투명 필름에 손으로 그려진 배전설비도면의 스캐닝 영상을 인식기법을 적용하여 설비내용, 설치위치, 전선종류별 설치상태 등 지리정보시스템에서 사용될 정보를 Digital 형태의 Data로 자동생성하고 국가기본도와의 상대오차보정까지 처리하는 것을 주요내용으로 하고 있다.

A molecular phylogenetic relationship inferred from mitochondrial cytochrome b gene sequence was developed based on analysis of Zacco species distributed in Korea as well as China, Japan and Taiwan. A maximum parsimony (MP) tree showed that Korean Z. temminckii and Z. koreanus formed a monophyletic clade, but the populations of Z. temminckii and Z. koreanus in the 'South Korean Subdistrict' region had genetic similarity with Japanese Z. temminckii. Korean Z. platypus had a closer relationship with Japanese members of the clade than with Chinese Z. platypus, which was more closely related to Opsariichthys uncirostris amurensis. The analysis of neighbor joining (NJ) tree may support a hypothesis that the clade of Z. platypus had genetically diverged from the common ancestor of Zacco species comprising Z. koreanus, Z. temminckii, Z. sieboldii and other species; thereafter a cladogenesis of Z. koreanus and Z. temmminckii had occurred from the ancestor of Z. sieboldii. Moreover, the Chinese Z. platypus had diverged far from the Korean Z. platypus and formed a phylogenetic relationship with O. uncirostris amurensis. Therefore, a more detailed study of the taxonomy and systematics of Zacco species in regard to their zoogeographical distributions is needed.

We conducted a phylogeographic analysis of Korean endemic Zacco koreanus populations inhabiting the East-flowing river (Gangneung Yeongokcheon; GY, Yangyang Namdaecheon; YN), the Han River (Seomgang; SG, Soksacheon; SS), and the Nakdong River(Gilancheon; GA) using the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase I (COI) gene (619 bp). Population genetic analysis was further performed to assess the population connectivity for the GY river where there is a large number of human-made artificial weirs with several fishways. The phylogeographic analysis revealed that while the populations of the East-flowing river and those of the Han River formed a monophyletic lineage, the Nakdong River individuals represented a distinct lineage with 3.7-4.2% (mean=4.0%) genetic distance from the other lineages. The population genetic analysis of the GY showed that a mid-stream population harbored relatively higher mitochondrial diversity relative to up- and down-stream populations, and there was no genetic differentiation between these three populations. The latter findings might suggest high genetic connectivity between the populations via genetic flow along the fishways. However, an analysis using faster-evolving genetic markers, such as microsatellites, is needed to confirm the findings of high population connectivity. Our study suggests the possibility of the presence of cryptic species in Z. koreanus in the Nakdong River basin. However, further study with more individual samples as well as additional markers or even more advanced genomic tools is required to test our hypothesis. Ecological or phenotypic analyses should be conducted to test whether the observed Nakdong River lineage represents a different or cryptic species, or simply hidden, but excessive, intraspecific diversity.

To examine the relationship of geological distribution and phylogenetic tree of O. latipes in the Far East, we analyzed cytochrome b (cyt b) gene in the mitochondrial genome. In this study we employed the entire sequence of cyt b of 53 samples collected from nine Korean locations and 117 cyt b data retrieved from the GenBank. From 170 Oryzias latipes cyt b sequence data, 142 different haplotypes were identified and phylogenetic relationship was reconstructed based on the dataset. According to the phylogeny, haplotypes were divided into three major haplogroups A, B and C, and their relationships were well correlated to their distributional patterns. Haplogroup A which is widely distribute in the southern part of Korea is separated in the geographical distribution from the haplogroup B which is found from China to the western part of Korea. Haplogroup C is only found in Japan.
