Arbor Day is a day that encourages people to plant trees and symbolizes the timing of planting. Arbor Day has been honored on April 5th in Korea, but it often does not agree to actual planting time due to global warming. This study confirmed the discrepancy between Arbor Day and regional soil-thawing times and reviewed alternative dates for tree planting using satellite-based soil-thaw data (FT-ESDR) from 1991 to 2020. Study results showed that the start time of planting on the Korean Peninsula, which was indicated by soil-thaw dates, was March 24 during 1991-2000, and it progressively changed to March 17 during 2011-2020. Should Arbor Day be changed based on soil-thaw periods, mid-March would be the most comprehensive, suitable alternative period considering the number of governmental administration units (cities and counties) and the land area of soil-thaw. Tree-Planting Day (March 14) and International Day of Forests (March 21) were found suitable for alternative dates to Arbor Day because they were close to the average soil-thaw time of Korean Peninsula (March 19) and land area whose soil-thaw time was within 10 days from those two dates ranged from 52.5% to 58.8% centered geographically on the mid-section of the peninsula. Since the periods of soil-thaw will continue to change due to climate change, it is necessary to reflect the trend of advancing planting periods in the future if Arbor Day is changed to an earlier date.

The oxygen utilization rate (OUR) is one of the crucial parameters for ocean carbon cycling and climate models. However, parameterization of OUR in the East Sea (Sea of Japan) is yet to be established. We estimated the basin-specific OURs in the East Sea and fitted them with exponential functions with depth by using pCFC- 12 age and apparent oxygen utilization (AOU) measured in summer 1999. The estimated OURs are higher in the upper water column and decrease with depth, in general. The vertical distributions of the estimated OURs in the Western and Eastern Japan Basins (WJB & EJB) are very similar. The OURs in the Ulleung Basin (UB) varied greatly depending on whether the surface layer (0~200 m) data are included in the OUR estimate or not. Apparently, weaker oxygen consumption occurs in the deep layer of Yamato Basin (YB). The ranges of the OURs between 200 m and 2000 m at WJB, EJB, UB, and YB are 8.15~0.83, 8.11~0.68, 5.29~0.73, and 7.31~0.06 ${\mu}mol$ $kg^{-1}$ $yr^{-1}$, respectively. Consideration of the wintertime surface water oxygen disequilibrium condition in estimating the OUR will be necessary in the future study.

To review active climate change responses, especially adjustments to the transplanting time, seven varieties of early-maturing ecotypes grown at Sangju sub-station, located in a mid-mountainous region, were studied from 2007 to 2022. During the ripening stage (July 29 to October 17), the average temperature was 23.2℃, which was a relatively disadvantageous environment compared to the optimal ripening temperature of 20 to 22℃. The heading date of early-growing cultivars was greatly shortened by 10 days for both normal (May 20) and late (June 5) transplanting. In an analysis of the growth characteristics and yield components, the culm and panicle length, number of spikelets/panicles, and the ripening rate showed high variation without a constant tendency over the study period. However, the number of panicles/plants and the ratio of brown rice increased, regardless of the transplanting time, while the 1,000-grain weight tended to decrease. There were no significant differences in yield observed between the two transplanting times, except for some years. Therefore, based on various variables, such as growth, yield, and quality (although not assessed in this study), the shift in transplanting time for early-maturing varieties in the mid-mountainous region from the current time (May 20) to a later time (June 2) needs to be considered to cope with the future impacts of climate change.

The Colonial House is one of the most popular styles in America. The purpose of this study is to closely examine this style based on interior features classified by patterns and elements during America's colonial period. Results of this study show that the interior style of the Colonial House was, at first, similar to Europe style. It was then integrated into the Georgian style of England and affected by Palladio as time passed. The interior style of the American Colonial House was based on rationality and practicality in concern with American weather and regions rather than imitation. The side of the roof was clapboard and the windows arranged with symmetry and rules around the entrance hall. It was generally Palladian style and was decorated with classical details. Timber frame of the interior was based on log cabins that appeared early in the American immigration. Furniture styles such as Jacobian, Queen Ann and Chippendale were matched with unique wood-oriented details and folkways like Chest, Rush Chair and Windsor Chair The house was also decorated with pictures, mirrors and ornaments, etc.

Generally, stationary is considered as a basic assumption in frequency analysis. However, rainfall and flood discharge are changing due to the climate change and climate variability. Therefore, there is a new opinion that changing pattern of rainfall and flood discharge must be considered in frequency analysis. This study suggests the flood frequency analysis methodology using SIR algorithm which was developed from bootstrap could be used for considering climate change. Than is, SIR algorithm is selected for resampling method considering changing pattern of flood discharge and it has been used for resampling method with likelihood function. Resampled flood discharge data considering the increase of flood discharge pattern are used for parametric flood frequency analysis and this results are compared with frequency analysis results by Bootstrap and original observations. As the results, SIR algorithm shows the greatest flood discharge than other methods in all frequencies and this may reflect the increasing pattern of flood discharge due to the climate change and climate variability.

In this study, we evaluated black pepper seed and white pepper seed for the following compounds: piperine content was determined by HPLC, and volatile oil content was determined via the Soxhlet method in before/after heat-treated samples, and total volatile material contents were determined via the SDE(Linkens-Nikens type simultaneous steam distillation and extraction apparatus) method. As a result, differences were noted in the black and white pepper seeds according to the constituent components, growing district, and whether the species was indigenous to Indonesia or India. We concluded that the differences in taste were attributable to the differences in the volatile material contents in black and white peppers. We also assessed these three determination results, and found that they were directly correlated. The volatile oil contents were determined by the Soxhlet method, which was a rapid, simple, and accurate method. We concluded that this method should prove to be an effective determination method in the quality control of black and white peppers.

수문학 또는 하천유출은 크게 기후학적은 인자 (온도, 바람, 상대습도 등)나 지형학적 인자 (지표면 경사, 흙의 종류, 하천의 면적, 하천의 길이 등)들에 의해 결정된다. 지형학적 인자들 중인 하천의 면적 그리고 주하천의 길이에 의한 영향은 비첨두홍수량의 과 수문곡선의 모양에 크게 관여되어 있다. 일반적으로 유역형상이 좁고 주하천의 길이(유로연장)가 긴 하천의 경우 단위면적당 유출량과 시간과의 그래프에서 수문곡선은 넓고 낮은 형태 모습을 지니지만 유역의 형상이 넓고 주하천의 길이기 짧은 하천은 수문곡선이 좁고 높은 형태의 모습을 가진다. 이러한 유역형상의 차이에 따라 Horton (1932)은 유역의 면적과 주하천의 길이의 비로 형상계수 (Shape Factor)의 공식을 제시하였다. 유역면적에 비해 유로연장이 길면 형상계수가 작아지고 첨두홍수량이 작아지는 반면 유역면적에 비해 유로연장이 짧을수록 형상계수가 커져 첨두홍수량이 커지는 형상을 발견할 수 있다. 형상계수와 비첨두홍수량의 상관관계를 알아보기 위하여 상수 전용댐 안전성 대책 및 치수능력 증대 방안연구 (2008) 보고서에서 적용한 유역들을 비교하였다. 이 보고서에 있는 38개의 유역들 중에서 형상계수가 0< <1 인 유역들을 선택한 후 형상계수와 지속시간별 비첨두홍수량의 관계 그리고 유역면적과 지속시간별 비첨두홍수량의 관계를 도시하였다. 추세선에 의한 결정계수인 $R^2$ 의 값을 비교하여 형상계수와 비첨두홍수량과의 관계를 조명하였다. 또한, 형상계수에 따른 순간단위도의 첨두시간 및 첨두유량을 비교하기 위하여 유역면적이 $300m^2$내외이며, 서로 다른 형상계수를 갖는 유역을 선정하여 연구를 진행하였다. 대상유역의 관측값을 이용하여 Nash모형을 적용한 순간단위도를 산정하였으며, 형상계수에 따른 첨두시간 및 첨두유량의 비교분석을 수행하였다.

Dissolution rate of minerals may differ from climates configuration, but weathering rate of feldspars is generally proved to be relatively higher The result of geochemical reaction modeling indicates the acid water of pH 4.5 excluding any other variables, was 2.3 times higher than that in ordinary rain of pH 5.7. This result proved that pH is very important factor in preservation of granite cultural properties. To prevent the weathering of stone cultural properties, weathering characteristics of stones should be studied first and constitution of dry environments, using water repellent or oil coating, isolating water which cause chemical weathering reaction like hydration and oxidization should be considered. Considering the long-term reactions between granite and rain, selection of materials, which can bring neutralization and non-oxidization conditions, are very important in using cleaning agents and biological controls.

The flood is the most general and frequently occurs among natural disasters. Generally flood by the rainfall which extends superexcellently for the occurrence but flash flood from severe rain storm gets up an absurd drowsiness at grade hour. This paper aims to 1 hour real-time flash flood and predict possibility at the area where is the possible flood will occur from the rainfall hour mountain after acquiring data in GIS(Geographic Information System) base by GcIUH(Geomorphoclimatic Instantaneous Unit Hydrograph). The flash flood occurrence is set up at 0.5m, 0.7m and 1.0m in standard depth. And this study suggests standard flood alarm which designed by probable flood according to duration time. The research result shows real-time flash flood evaluation has the suitable standard in the basin when comparing with the existing official warning announcement system considering topographical information.
