Purpose: Koreans' internet and smartphone usage hours are steadily increasing and the dependence of young people on smartphones is causing social problems. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine health and dietary habits, as well as hair mineral contents according to the level of dependence of smartphone use among adolescents to clarify the interrelation of smartphone dependence, lifestyle, dietary behavior, and mineral nutrition status. Methods: A total of 80 smartphone-addicted adolescents participated in this study and were divided into three groups (general, potential and danger group) according to smartphone dependence. The subjects' lifestyles and dietary behaviors were then surveyed, and hair mineral contents were analyzed. Results: Higher smartphone dependence was associated with lower average weekly sleeping time and later first smoking age. In the danger group, the rate of eating fast and the rate of snacking twice a day was also relatively high. Parents (45.0%) and mobile (30.0%) were the factors having the greatest influence on an individual's dietary behavior. In the hair mineral analysis, all subjects had lower selenium concentrations and higher lead concentrations than normal. In addition, the levels of aluminum in the danger group were higher than in the normal range and the highest among the three groups. Conclusions: It is necessary to guide adolescents to use smartphones correctly and manage dietary habits. In addition, careful attention is needed the mineral nutritional status of smartphone-addicted adolescents.

To find out the oxidation process of potential acid sulfate soil(PASS) along with time. the PASS were treated with lime and ammonia water to adjust soil pH in laboratory column condition. pH range of PASS showed 6.5 to 7.5. however, complete oxidized PASS by $H_2O_2$ showed 2.1 to 2.5. After pilling the PASS under the natural condition. oxidation occured slowly from surface of the pilled soil. The oxidation of PASS proceeded slowly when the soil was in submerged condition. but quickly in dried condition. The content of sulfide-sulfur in PASS sharply decreased after exposing to the air and the decreasing rate was greater in dried than in submerged condition. The content of sulfate-sulfur continuously decreased in submerged condition. but increased in dried condition. Contents of $Fe^{+{+}}$ and $Al^{+{+}}$ in PASS were generally increased with time and the increasing rate was greater in submerged than in dried condition. Liming to PASS was slowly acting to pH change and ammonia water caused fast pH change within a short period of time. The contents of sulfate-sulfur and exchangeable aluminum in drainage water decreased with time and the contents of sulfide-sulfur and ferrous iron were increased.

Imported natural gas has been consumed by urban gas use and generation sector in Korea. The share of generating sector in total demand for natural gas is only 33% at 2000. This paper examines the potential of natural gas use in generation sector in the future. We build some hypothetical but realistic scenarios reflecting rapidly changing economic environment. We used standard programs for plant mix decision under those scenarios. We found that it is very likely to have high gas demand in the future, if we remove the cross-subsidizing price structure.

Cyanoacrylate fuming mehod is effective for latent fingerprints developing on non-porous surfaces. In this study, we investigated optimal conditions for latent fingerprint development using cyanoacrylate fuming method in vacuum chamber. The effects of temperature, relative humidity, fuming method and processing time were checked throughly. The amount of evaporated cyanoacrylate was increased at higher temperature, but cyanoacrylate polymerization on the fingerprint ridge was best at $30^{\circ}C$. With a relative humidity of 40% to 50% conditions, good quality of fingerprints were developed. If a relative humidity is lower than 30% or higher than 60%, polymerization rate of cyanoacrylate monomers on the fingerprint ridge was decreased. It was identified that application of $OMEGA-PRINT^{TM}$ dispersal pad or cotton ball with sodium hydroxide fuming method in vacuum chamber was more effective than natural fuming method. We found that cyanoacrylate processing time in vacuum chamber did not have more significant than relative humidity.

Fingerprints deposited on paper found at a fire scene are important evidence for determining a suspect's identity. On the other hand, because the temperature at the fire scene is very high, there are many difficulties in developing fingerprints. This study compared the effectiveness of ninhydrin, DFO, and silver nitrate to develop fingerprints deposited on paper exposed to high temperatures. Using a dry heat press, heat was applied to the paper at $200^{\circ}C$ for various times. Silver nitrate was found to be superior to the others under all conditions. Ninhydrin developed fingerprints weakly compared to DFO and silver nitrate. In addition, the sensitivity of DFO decreased with increasing exposure time. Therefore, it is recommended silver nitrate be used to develop fingerprints deposited on paper found at a fire scene.

We tested the pre-treatment of alumina, leucine, alumina mixed with leucine at ratios of 9:1 (Al-Leu (9:1)) and 5:1 (Al-Leu (5:1)), and alumina mixed with sodium lactate at a ratio of 5:1 (Al-Lac (5:1)) on aged fingerprints (1, 7, 14, and 30 days after natural fingerprinting) before cyanoacrylate (CA) fuming to improve the development efficacy. As a result of the experiment, fingerprints with pre-treatment of alumina, leucine, Al-Leu (9:1), Al-Leu (5:1), and Al-Lac (5:1) showed better development efficacy (area and minutiae) than fingerprints without pre-treatment. Therefore, this modified CA fuming method improved the development efficacy with five pretreatments.

The purpose of this study is to longitudinally analyze impact factors on library use. One of library use indicators, the number of circulated books was statistically analyzed with latent growth model and growth mixture model. Library data from 2014 to 2019 were collected from the National Library Statistics System, and 846 public libraries were analyzed. As results, the number of circulated books were decreased, but it was tempered. Next, with controlling the factor affecting the dependent variable, the size of collection and the number of participants in reading programs provided by public libraries were statistically significant. Lastly, 5 classes were identified by applying the growth mixture model, and the number of librarians was significantly associated with trajectory class membership.

This research estimated the variation of high school students' academic achievement by using the second to the fourth wave KEEP(Korea Education and Employment Panel) data. We explored the effects of study on academic achievement in proportion to self-regulated learning hours(except for school work and private tutoring). Analysis variables were self-directed learning(study) hours throughout senior high school and 9 grade academic achievement. We conducted Latent Growth Model(LGM) using KEEP panel data and program LISREL 8.8. Results showed that there were significant effects of self-regulated learning hours on the variation of senior high school students' academic achievement. Therefore, this was considered to be useful tips in getting the relation between students' learning and academic achievement.

에코톱은 생태학적 지휘체계(Niche)와 서식처(Habitat)가 결합된 환경을 의미하며 도면에서 최소한의 단위로 일반적인 구성요소의 상태, 잠재자연식생, 잠재생태계 기능으로 균일하게 분류가 가능한 요소로서 천이단계 또는 토지이용이 서로 다른 패치들로 이루진 생태공간을 의미한다. 따라서 에코톱과 비오톱은 식물과 동물의 특정 군집에 요구되는 서식공간의 개념에서는 의미가 같지만 비오톱은 서식공간의 일부분 또는 한 개 이상의 생물이 서식가능한 공간의 개념으로 사용된다. 현재 네덜란드, 스페인을 포함한 유럽국가에서는 에코톱분류를 통한 하천을 관리하는 방안을 제시하고 있으며 이에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 만경강 중류 소양천 합류점에서 전주천 합류점까지 약 3.5km 구간의 제외지포함 제내지 1km 폭을 대상으로 1918년 고지도 토지피복을 분류하고, 1948년 해방이전 항공사진, 2003년 2014년 항공사진을 활용한 에코톱을 분류하여 이에 대한 에코톱 다양성지수를 추이분석하여 하천으로부터 떨어진 거리 별 에코톱다양성지수 변화를 분석하였다. 분석결과 과거 제방축조 이전인 1918년 에코톱 다양성 지수는 하천으로부터 멀어질수록 안정적으로 감소하였으나 1948년 이후의 하천은 제내지에서부터 지수값이 급격히 감소한 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 1948년 이후의 만경강은 과거 1918년 하천에 비해 구하도 공간이 농경지 증가, 보설치 등으로 인한 인위적 교란에 의한 감소로 분석되어지며 에코톱다양성과 밀접한 연관이 있는 생물종다양성 역시 감소하였음을 유추할 수 있다.

식생은 증발산, 강우, 토양 수분 등 다양한 수문기상 요인과 밀접한 관계가 있기 때문에 식생의 상태는 가뭄 발생 시 물 부족에 매우 큰 영향을 받는다. 가뭄에 따른 식생의 변화와 영향을 파악하기 위해서는 식생-기후의 피드백을 이해해야 한다. 식생과 기후변수의 상호관계를 묘사하고 결합 확률을 구성하는 것은 식생-기후의 피드백을 이해하는데 적절하다. Copula 함수는 모든 변수를 연결하는 이점을 가지기 때문에 다양한 확률 변수를 결합하는 강력한 접근방법으로, copula를 통한 확률론적 접근방법은 수문 기상 스트레스에 대한 식생의 반응을 효과적으로 조사할 수 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 copula 기반의 식생-기후의 상호관계를 통해 가뭄 발생 시 식생이 받을 수 있는 영향을 정량화하고자 한다. 이를 위해 위성 자료를 활용한 식생건강성지수(Vegetation Health Index, VHI)와 위성관측된 강수 및 잠재증발산 자료를 적용하여 높은 공간 해상도에서 한국 전역의 식생 가뭄 가능성을 추정하고자 하였다. 강수 및 잠재증발산 자료를 통해 다양한 가뭄지수를 산정하고, copula 결합 이론을 기반으로 VHI와 가뭄지수 간의 이변량 결합 확률모델이 제안된다. 이에 조건부 확률을 적용하여 다양한 가뭄 시나리오에서 식생의 가뭄 가능성을 추정하고, 가뭄에 취약한 지역을 공간적으로 분석하고자 한다. 이를 통해 가뭄 스트레스에 따른 식생 변화와 생태학적 가뭄의 공간적 특성을 효과적으로 파악할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
