Grus weathering mantles are widely distributed in Southern Korean Peninsula and are considered to be results of chemical weathering related to palaeoclimate milieu. This paper attempts to address this issue by CIA(chemical index of alteration). The climatic approach to the formation of grus mantles offers limited explanation of field occurrences, as these materials are widespread across climatic zones, from the humid tropics to cool temperate areas, although rates of grusification are likely to be influenced by climatic parameters. CIA values for granitoid weathering mantles in S. Korea are 50, which is the same of unweathered granitic rocks. Grus mantles in Korean peninsula show very low level in chemical alteration by CIA.

국제사회는 1992년 기후변화협약 체결 이후 지구온도 상승을 2℃이하로 억제하는 등 기후변화 문제를 해결하기 위해 노력하고 있다. 그러나 1997년 선진국(38개국) 중심으로 2020년까지 탄소감축(교토의정서)을 선언하였음에도 불구하고, 미국, 중국 등의 감축의무 미참여로 인해 기후변화대응에 대한 한계를 노출한 바 있다. 그 이후 COP21(2015년)에서 모든 국가에 감축의무를 부여하는 신(新)기후체제를 출범함으로써 선진국뿐만 아니라 개발도상국도 2020년부터 탄소감축의무를 부담하게 되었다. 영국은 기후변화위원회의 권고에 따라 탄소중립경제(Net-Zero Economy) 실현을 위해 국가적 탄소배출 목표를 발표(2019년)하고 온실가스 배출 'Zero'를 기후변화법에 명시하여 모든 산업 인프라 및 환경에 적용시키려 한다. 전 세계에서 최초로 영국의 물산업 분야는 'Net Zero 2030 Routemap'을 발표하여 물산업분야의 탄소중립 실현을 위해 다양한 정책적 로드맵과 실행방안(시나리오)을 수립하였다. 이러한 실행방안은 국가정책에 부합하고 자국내 물기업의 탄소저감 실행계획의 수립을 지원하는데 그 목적이 있다. 구체적인 실행방안은 탄소중립 달성을 위해 비용, 효과, 기술수준 및 기간 등을 고려하여, ①수요주도형, ②기술주도형, ③자연친화주도형, 그리고 ④복합형으로 제시하고 있다. 실행시나리오에 따르면, 수요주도형은 상하수도 분야 수요관리 및 기술, 설비의 효율화를 통한 배출 저감 방안으로 2018~19년 기준, 총배출량 2.41MtCO2e에서 2030년까지 0.54MtCO2e으로 약 77%의 감소효과를 기대하고 있다. 기술주도형의 경우, 심각한 탄소배출 분야의 기술개발 및 혁신을 통해 배출량을 최소화하는 시나리오이며, 총배출량(2.41MtCO2e)을 0.10MtCO2e(약 96%)까지 감소시키기 위한 방안이다. 자연친화주도형은 물기업의 자산 및 그 외 지역에 자연친화적 환경조성을 통한 탄소상쇄방안을 중심으로 총배출량을 0.88MtCO2e(약 63%)까지 저감하는 효과를 나타낸다. 마지막으로 복합협은 시나리오별 실효성과 적용시기를 고려할 때 가장 효과적인 방안으로 약 74%의 저감효과를 나타내지만, 시기적절성, 효과성에서, 가장 최적의 방안으로 제시되고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 영국 물산업 분야의 탄소중립 정책과 실행방안 분석하고 그 시사점을 제시함으로써 국내 물산업 분야의 탄소중립을 위한 구체적 실행계획 수립에 이바지하고자 한다. 물산업 분야의 탄소중립은 기존 물산업 가치사슬 변화 등 물산업 생태계 전반의 변화를 초래할 것이며, 이러한 변화는 국내 물산업의 자본·운영시장의 비용증가에 대한 도전과 신재생에너지 기술 등 탄소 중립 기술 습득 및 새로운 일자리 창출 등 신(新)시장체계에 대한 기회가 동시에 상존한다.

Bays and caps represent the physical characteristics of Naepo area in Korea. And reclamation of tidal land presents a clue toward the understanding of regional identities and landscape changes in this area. Reclamation of tidal land in the Garorim bay that is representative of the physical geographies of Naepo area had trended toward 'the diffusion of salt ponds' during Joseon dynasty. Hereafter the Japanese imperialism, the reclamation had tumed to 'the reclamation of arable lands' by drainage. But, at the same time the land use of salt pond that had been the most appropriate strategy of adaptation for the ecological environments of this area has showed a sort of the geographical long-term durability. And the great landlords that had emerged during Japanese imperialism were the Yeom-han(鹽漢, laborers who engaged in salt production) in former times. They as a new local elites have played a leading role in the reclamation of tidal land and the making of regional landscape.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the characteristics and problems of 'Reading Cheongju' which launched as 'One Book, One City' reading promotion campaign in 2006 and conducted 23 times for the past 15 years. The analysis of the selection criteria of 'one book', 31 selected books, and the activity of reading and discussion shows the strength of continuity and stability of 'Reading Cheongju'. However, the following weaknesses need to be improved on: the inadequate change in book selection criteria, selection of several books according to age groups instead of 'One Book', lack of consistency in themes of selected books, preference for best-sellers and popular works, difficulty in identifying the continuance of individual participation in reading and discussion, librarians' role limited to organizing programs, and lacking in direct participation in discussion and communication, and events and programs only led by Cheongju City Library without any cooperation from community members.

This study aims to understand the background and characteristics of the UK's allotments, as the UK is one of the nations participating in allotment invigoration. This study will focus on approaches to policy, active governance, and socioeconomic impact. To address this, allotment-related issues, policies since the beginning of the 19th century were analysed. In addition to this, Sheffield City, UK, was selected as a specific case to analyse the framework of allotment management, active governance concerning allotment management, and the residents' perceptions of allotments through a questionnaire survey. It was found first that the UK government, since 1806, has been consistently producing localism policies aiming to devolve management authority into local governments, which actively obtain sites for allotments. Secondly, the structure of allotment management formed in active governance leads the overall maintenance, partnership, income generation, and monitoring of the allotments. Interestingly, the structure of the department organisation of local government in Sheffield established the position of community manager, who encourages community invigoration. However, a gap between socioeconomic aspects was found in which the allotment invigoration in lesser deprived areas outweighs the invigoration in more deprived areas. In contrast, according to the questionnaire survey, respondents in more deprived areas were more likely to be involved in allotment activities and the community. The key to addressing the socioeconomic gap in the context of allotment invigoration is the adoption of the Public-Community-Private-Partnership framework. This will be of great importance to longer-term promotion of beneficial allotment practices.

Objective: This study was performed to explore the effectiveness of community organization as a strategy for health promotion. Methods: We used data from community health interviews from 6 administrative sections (eup, myeon, or dong) with high mortality from August to October, conducted once in both 2010 and 2013 as part of the Health Plus Happiness Plus Projects based on the concept of community empowerment in Gyeongsangnam-do Province. For 2010, the study subjects comprised a systematic sampling of 220 adults from each of the six sections for a total of 1320 subjects, and for 2013, 200 from each section for a total of 1200 subjects. We compared main health behavior indicators and empowerment score between these two years. Results: Smoking prevalence in men was 47.4% in 2013, and 47.7% in 2010, respectively. Prevalence of walking 5 days or more per week was 35.6% in 2013, significantly lower than 46.2% in 2010. Also, during that period, both biennial health examination rate and biennial gastric cancer screening rate among those 40 years of age and over significantly increased from 57.7% to 63.6% and from 49.3% to 55.0%, respectively. Mean empowerment score at the community level significantly increased from 12.6 to 14.0. Conclusions: This study suggests that the three-year implementation of community organization might have helped to increase the participation rate of biennial health examinations including cancer screenings in the community. However, this was not the case for smoking cessation and walking. Further studies are needed for evidence-based health promotion.

Defining sustainable development as the challenge of continuously balanving economic, social and ecological values, a European research project sought lessons from experiences of a forty year period to frame criteria of appropriate scale for contextually-sensitive environmental policy. A network of case studies conducted by partner teams in Gemany, lreland, the Netherlands and Sweden examined changes of scale in the territorial, functional and socio-political contexts of life and landscape between 1950-1990. Themes central to the project included landscape transformations, tensions among area-and sector-based ways of life [genres de vie], and changing horizons of discretionary reach. With illustrations drawn mainly from the lrish case studies in Tipperary, this lecture outlines some regional differences in response to externa-policy and market-driven-influences. Implications for cross-cultural research and the framing of contextually-sensitive environmental policy are outlined, and suggestions made for their modulation through European Union, national, regional, and local levels.

Human capital and higher education have been increasingly emphasized with the rise of a knowledge-based economy. Cities are recognized as places to attract human capital and spur economic development. Educated workforce supply is one of the critical parts to sustain IT industries, which have been leading recent economic development. This paper examines factors affecting geographies of educated workforce supply from colleges and universities to companies in U.S. metropolitan areas through questionnaire survey and interviews with IT companies and IT-related programs at colleges and universities. The results show that: (1) physical proximity between IT companies and colleges/universities enhances the degree of educated workforce supply from colleges/universities to IT companies; (2) IT companies which seek more specialized and rarer expertise recruit the workforce from colleges or universities over longer distance; (3) colleges and universities which offer a higher degree have geographically more extensive supply of educated workforce to IT companies than those which offer a lower degree; and (4) large IT companies have more geographically extensive supply of educated workforce to colleges/universities than small IT companies.

인간과 환경과의 관계의 역사적 변천을 인구변화와 자원관리의 측면에서 분석하는 기존 관점은 인구기초이론, 기술기초이론, 시장기초이론 등으로 분류된다. 이러한 관점은 어느 한가지 변수를 독립 변수로 가정하는 입장을 취하므로 흔히 '단일요소이론'이라고 불리며, 제각기 장점이 있기는 하지만 현실 세계의 복합성을 단지 부분적으로 설명하는데 그치는 문제점을 내포하고 있다. 현실세계의 모든 사건은 개방된 체계 속에서 발생하기 때문에, 모든 사건은 단선적인 인과관계로 파악될 수 없을 만큼 서로 복합하게 얽혀 있다. 이에 대하여 문화생태이론은 단일요소이론의 그러한 한계를 극복하고 현실세계의 복합성을 분석할 수 있는 개념과 방법을 제시하고 있다. 문화생태이론은 실로 인간과 환경과의 관계가 역사적으로 변천해 온 과정을 탐구하는데 적합한 개념과 방법을 장점으로 내세우는 새로운 관점이라 할 수 있다. 문화생태이온은 인구, 기술, 시장, 제도 등 요소의 중요성이 시간과 장소에 따라 다를 수 있다는 가정 하에서 어떠한 요소라도 어느 한 장소와 시점에서 인간과 환경과의 관계의 변화를 주도할 수 있다고 기대한다. 한국 농촌의 인간과 환경과의 관계를 탐구함에 있어서 활성되어야 할 문화생태이론의 기초적인 개념은 '지역인간생태계'와 '문화적 적응'이다. 한국 농촌의 지역인간생태계는 그 특성상 인구, 농업, 시장, 제도로 구성되어 있다고 볼 수 있다. 문화적 적응이란 변화하는 환경 속에서 사회구성원들의 환경에 대한 적응도를 높일 수 있는 행동양식을 새로이 선택하는 행위를 일컫는다. 한국 농촌에서는 적응전략이란 농업의 집약화와 상업화 또는 산아제한과 인구이동이라는 측면에서 분석될 수 있을 것이다. 생존, 기술, 취락형태, 토지이용, 무역이나 교역 등은 적응전략을 분석하는데 간접적인 자료를 제공해 줄 것이다.
