Air temperature in Korea has increased by $1.5^{\circ}C$ over the last 100 years, which is nearly twice the global average rate during the same period. Moreover, it is projected that such change in temperature will continue in the 21st century. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential impacts of future climate change on the rice production and adaptation methods in Korea. Climate data for the baseline (1971~2000) and the three future climate (2011~2040, 2041~2070, and 2071~2100) at fifty six sites in South Korea under IPCC SRES A1B scenario were used as the input to the rice crop model ORYZA2000. Six experimental schemes were carried out to evaluate the combined effects of climatic warming, $CO_2$ fertilization, and cropping season on rice production. We found that the average production in 2071~2100 would decrease by 23%, 27%, and 29% for early, middle, and middle-late rice maturing type, respectively, when cropping seasons were fixed. In contrast, predicted yield reduction was ~0%, 6%, and 7%, for early, middle, and middle-late rice maturing type, respectively, when cropping seasons were changed. Analysis of variation suggested that climatic warming, $CO_2$ fertilization, cropping season, and rice maturing type contributed 60, 10, 12, and 2% of rice yield, respectively. In addition, regression analysis suggested 14~46 and 53~86% of variations in rice yield were explained by grain number and filled grain ratio, respectively, when cropping season was fixed. On the other hand, 46~78 and 22~53% of variations were explained respectively with changing cropping season. It was projected that sterility caused by high temperature would have no effect on rice yield. As a result, rice yield reduction in the future climate in Korea would resulted from low filled grain ratio due to high growing temperature during grain-filling period because the $CO_2$ fertilization was insufficient to negate the negative effect of climatic warming. However, adjusting cropping seasons to future climate change may alleviate the rice production reduction by minimizing negative effect of climatic warming without altering positive effect of $CO_2$ fertilization, which improves weather condition during the grain-filling period.

The purpose of this study was development of school health education curriculum in primary school based on analysis of the textbooks published in 1991. 1) The health education curriculum in primary school consisted of four major components such as health education aspects of the healthful school environments, health education aspects of school health services, health education course, and health instruction in related subjects. However, health instruction taught by physical education, biology, and other health related subjects was not systematic organization for health care. 2) A considerable amount of health knowledge and attitude, and some health practices was learned as the result of experiences in other courses, where there was little or no reference to health. It must be developed health edcation course separated from health related subjects. 3) Direct health insruction was represented by the health education course. The health education courses must be considered to be heart of the school health education curriculum. 4) The health education course developed by this study was consisted of eight health units and problems in the early elementary grade or health classes in the higher years. 5) The health education course developed by this study provided the opportunity for acquring new knowledge, attitude, and practice, for discarding the unhealtful attitude and strengthening the healthful attitude and practices of primary school students.

The aim of this study was to confirm the improvement of efficiency for temperature estimation at 0600 and 1500 LST by using a simple method for estimating temperature lapse rate modulated by the amount of clouds in comparison with the case adopting the existing single temperature lapse rate ($-6.5^{\circ}C/km$ or $-9^{\circ}C/km$). A catchment of the 'Hadong Watermark2,' which includes Hadong, Gurye, and Gwangyang was selected as the area for evaluating the practicality of the temperature lapse rate estimation method. The weather data of 0600 and 1500 LST at 12 weather observation sites within the catchment were collected during the entire year of 2015. Also, the 'sky condition' of digital forecast products of KMA in 2015 ($5{\times}5km$ lattice resolution) were overlapped with the catchment of the 'Hadong Watermark2,' to calculate the spatial average value within the catchment, which were used to simulate the 0600 and 1500 LST temperature lapse rate of the catchment. The estimation errors of the temperatures at 0600 LST were ME $-0.39^{\circ}C$ and RMSE $1.45^{\circ}C$ in 2015, when applying the existing temperature lapse rate. Using the estimated temperature lapse rate, they were improved to ME $-0.19^{\circ}C$ and RMSE $1.32^{\circ}C$. At 1500 LST, the effect of the improvements found from the comparison between the existing temperature lapse rate and the estimated temperature lapse rate were minute, because the estimated lapse rate of clear days is not very different from the existing lapse rate. However, the estimation errors of the temperatures at 1500 LST during cloudy days were improved from ME $-0.69^{\circ}C$, RMSE $1.54^{\circ}C$ to ME $-0.51^{\circ}C$, RMSE $1.19^{\circ}C$.

There are not many practical measures to solve a water conflict, when a hydromorphologically asymmetric situation in international rivers exists whereby downstream users may not affect upstream users but upstream users do cause downstream impacts. In taking advantage of this merit, North Korea has built Imnam Dam in upstream of North Han River and uses water for trans-basin hydropower generation. As an impact of this dam South Korean' area as a downstream user has been suffered from water deficit and dry river. It is very critical for South Korea to solve a key problem such as water allocation for water supply and river maintenance. Therefore, this study is aim to suggest alternatives for equitable water allocation in consideration of special circumstances between the South and the North. For this, reviewing the allocation methods of water rights is carried using lessons obtained from international river cases. The results show that the minimum desired streamflow is calculated at 7.3 $m^3/sec$; water budget analysis by the equitable distribution of streamflows at the border line of the North Han River, the difference in water supply deficiency is at 3.7 $m^3/sec$ before and after Imnam Dam; in the determined distribution method, the difference in water deficiency is at 11.38 $m^3/sec$. These results show that South Korea should be secured 11.38 $m^3/sec$ from North Korean's Imnam Dam in respective of water use right and sound river maintenance.

Conventionally the estimation method of the origin-destination Matrix has been developed by implementing the expansion of sampled data obtained from roadside interview and household travel survey. In the survey process, the bigger the sample size is, the higher the level of limitation, due to taking time for an error test for a cost and a time. Estimating the O-D matrix from observed traffic count data has been applied as methods of over-coming this limitation, and a gradient model is known as one of the most popular techniques. However, in case of the gradient model, although it may be capable of minimizing the error between the observed and estimated traffic volumes, a prior O-D matrix structure cannot maintained exactly. That is to say, unwanted changes may be occurred. For this reason, this study adopts a conjugate gradient algorithm to take into account two factors: estimation of the O-D matrix from the conjugate gradient algorithm while reflecting the prior O-D matrix structure maintained. This development of the O-D matrix estimation model is to minimize the error between observed and estimated traffic volumes. This study validates the model using the simple network, and then applies it to a large scale network. There are several findings through the tests. First, as the consequence of consistency, it is apparent that the upper level of this model plays a key role by the internal relationship with lower level. Secondly, as the respect of estimation precision, the estimation error is lied within the tolerance interval. Furthermore, the structure of the estimated O-D matrix has not changed too much, and even still has conserved some attributes.

This study is to understand the current situation of Wonju Stream, which flows through Wonju, Kangwon-do, and Seom River, the national river located outside of Wonju, by investigating all river areas using biotope type. Also, this research looked into the relationship between biotope and appearance of wild birds by investigating the location of their appearance. Biotope groups are 'scale', 'shape', and 'landscape'. And, biotope types are 'moisture', 'physical environment', and 'existence of vegetation'. Biotope subtypes are 'river area', 'physical environment', 'vegetation type', and 'usage of land'. Seom River is classified as 21 different sections, and Wonju Stream is classified as 19 different sections. Wild birds are investigated on breeding season, which was January and May of 2008. By marking each bird's location of appearance, it figured out properties of biotope according to the location of bird's appearance. 31 species, 795 birds in spring were founded, and 49 species, 4,348 birds are founded in winter at Seom River area. Also, 34 species, 427 birds in spring, and 33 species, 3,442 birds are founded in winter at Wonju Stream area. In winter, 26 species, 547 birds, and in spring, 12 species, 72 birds at natural river with estuaries in confluence of Seom River area are founded. Also, 34 species, 1412 birds in winter, and 24 species, 341 birds in spring are founded at natural river with estuaries and wetland plants. This means that because agricultural rivers have wide river width, slow flow speed, and many different types of biotope, these rivers can be good habitats for wild birds. The precise investigations and classifications of biotope, which especially are hard for linear rivers, were done to understand the whole and current situation of rivers. Furthermore, the data that shows the locations of wild birds can basically be used for a recovery of biological habitats, a constructing of ecological streams, a river-maintenance, and an enhancement of biodiversity of Wonju. Also, because the types of biotope are altered by rain, a continuous monitoring for maintaining ecosystem of rivers are highly needed.

현재 우리 나라가 사용하고 있는 표준시는 I-시간이다. 이 표준시 사용에 대해 일부 이견이 있어, 우리 나라의 표준시 제도를 확립하기 위해 세계 각국의 표준시의 운용 상황을 분석 검토함으로서 우리나라는 현재 사용 중인 I-시간을 계속적으로 사용하는 것이 타당한 것으로 다음과 같은 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 1) 세계에서 복수 표준시를 운용하고 있는 나라(러시아 등 9개국)는, 표준시 적용 지역을 태양시에 정확하게 맞추어 결정할 수 있을 것임에도, 3개국만 표준시가 태양시에 거의 일치할 뿐 나머지 6개국은 모두 태양시보다 표준시를 앞세워 적용하고 있다. 2) 세계 15대 대 영토국 중 단일표준시를 운용하고 있는 나라(중국 등 6개국) 중에서 3개국이 대체로 표준시가 태양시에 일치할 뿐이고, 나머지 3개국은 표준시를 태양시보다 $1{\sim}2$시간 이상이나 앞세워 적용하고 있다. 3) 전 세계의 145개 주요 단일 표준시 사용국 중 약 5%(중동의 지중해 연안국들과 동유럽의 일부 국가들) 정도에서 표준시를 태양시보다 30분 정도 늦춰 적용할 뿐이고, 태양시와 비슷하게 운용하는 나라는 약 56%, 표준시를 30분 이상 앞세워 적용하고 있는 나라는 약 39% 정도로서 대체로 태양시보다 빠른 표준시를 긍정적으로 받아들이고 있다. 4) 캐나다와 미국의 경우는 각 주에서 정한 표준시와는 다르게 운영하고 있는 지방들이 있는데, 이들 모두가 지리적인 위치로 보아 태양시보다 표준시가 어느 정도 빠르게 운영되도록 조정한 경우들이다. 5) 세계에서 UTC와 비 정수 시간차의 표준시를 운용하는 지역과 국가는 7개소 정도이다. 이들 중 표준시를 태양시에 맞추어 설정한 경우가 6개소이고, 지리적인 위치로 보아 표준시와 태양시가 일치할 수 있는데도 표준시를 30분 정도를 빠르게 운용하기 위해 조정한 경우가 1개소이다. 6) 세계에서 서머타임을 적용하고 있는 최저위도 국가는 북반구에서는 북회귀선에 걸쳐 있는 Mexico와 Cuba, 남반구에서는 Brazil의 남회귀선에 걸쳐 있는 남반부인데 이들은 모두 태양시와 일치하는 표준시를 운용하는 나라들이다. 한편 서머타임을 적용하고 있지 않는 최고위도 국가는 북반구에서는 Iceland, 남반구에서는 Argentina인데, 이 두 나라는 모두 이미 표준시를 태양시보다 1시간 이상 빠르게 적용하고 있는 나라들이다. 7) 복수 표준시간을 운용하고 있는 Canada와 미국에서는 국가적으로는 서머타임을 운용하고 있는데도 서머타임을 운용하고 있지 않는 주가 Canada에는 1개주, 미국에는 3개 주가 있는데, 이들은 모두 표준시가 태양시보다 30분${\sim}$1시간 정도 빠르게 적용되고 있는 곳이다. 8) 세계의 많은 나라가 표준시를 태양시보다 30분${\sim}$1시간 또는 그 이상까지도 빠르게 적용하고 있다는 사실, 그리고 세계의 많은 나라에서 서머타임을 시행하고 있다는 사실을 보면 태양시보다 표준시를 어느 정도 빠르게 적용해 생활하는 것은 인간 생체리듬에 악영향을 미치지 않으면서 오히려 시간 이용을 효율화하는 장점이 있는 것으로 판단된다. 9) 현재 우리나라는 경도 $135^{\circ}E$를 기준으로 하는 I-시간을 사용하고 있으면서 I-시간대역의 서쪽경계에 위치하여 태양시보다 표준시가 30분 정도 빠르다. 이는 한국인의 생체리듬에 결코 나쁜 영향을 주지 않으며, 오히려 시간을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있는 장점으로 작용하고 있는 것으로 판단된다. 아울러 여름철에 일광절약시간(서머타임)제의 필요성을 완화시켜줌으로서 표준시를 안정적으로 운용하는데 크게 기여하고 있다. 이는 표준시를 UTC와 정수시간차를 유지하면서 안정적으로 운영하려는 세계 각국의 표준시 운영 경향과도 일치하고 있다. 10) 우리나라가 사용하는 I-시간이 우리에게 이상과 같은 장점을 가지고 있음에도 불구하고 이 I-시간이 일제의 잔재라거나 또한 한국인의 생체리듬에 해롭다는 이유를 들어 우리 나라의 표준시를 경도 $127.5^{\circ}W$ 기준의 H'시간으로 변경시킨다면UTC와의 8시간 30분차 시간을 운영하게 됨으로서 국제화 시대를 사는데 큰 불편을 초래할 뿐만 아니라, 추가적으로 서머타임제를 도입하게 되는 등 커다란 부작용을 겪게 될 것이다.

The section from water source to 2.6km upper stream of Hantan River is protected as the drinking water quality protection area according to guidelines of Ministry of Environment, because water source of the Gwanin water intake plant has been known the river. However, opinions were consistently brought up that the standard of water source protection zone must be changed with using underground water as water source because of contribution possibility of underground water as the water source of Gwanin water intake facility. In this regard, hydrogeologic investigation including resistivity survey and hydrogeochemical investigation were carried out to assess water source and infiltration of contaminant for the plant. Quaternary basaltic rocks (50m thick with four layers) covered most of the study area on the granite basement. As the result of the resistivity survey, it is revealed that permeable aquifer is distributed in the boundary of two layers: the basaltic layer with low resistivity; and the granite with high resistivity. Considering of outflow from Gwanin water intake facility, the area possessing underground water was estimated at least $5.7km^2$. The underground water recharged from Cheorwon plain was presumed to outflow along the surface of unconformity plane of basalt and granite. Based on field parameters and major dissolved constituents, groundwater and river water clearly distinguished and the spring water was similar to groundwater from the basaltic aquifer. Temporal variation of $SiO_2$, Mg, $NO_3$, and $SO_4$ concentrations indicated that spring water and nearby groundwater were originated from the basaltic aquifer and other groundwater from granitic aquifer. In conclusion, the spring of the Gwanin water intake plant was distinguished from river water in terms of hydrogeochemical characteristics and mainly contributed from the basaltic aquifer.

Ad-Hoc network is a network architecture which has no backbone network and is deployed temporarily and rapidly in emergency or war without fixed mobile infrastructures. All communications between network entities are carried in ad-hoc networks over the wireless medium. Due to the radio communications being extremely vulnerable to propagation impairments, connectivity between network nodes is not guaranteed. Therefore, many new algorithms have been studied recently. This study proposes the secondary header approach to the cluster based routing protocol (CBRP). The primary header becomes abnormal status so that the primary header can not participate in the communications between network entities, the secondary header immediately replaces the primary header without selecting process of the new primary header. This improves the routing interruption problem that occurs when a header is moving out from a cluster or in the abnormal status. The performances of proposed algorithm ACBRP(Advanced Cluster Based Routing Protocol) are compared with CBRP. The cost of the primary header reelection of ACBRP is simulated. And results are presented in order to show the effectiveness of the algorithm.
