Proterozoic gneisss complex of the Paju-Gimpo area, Northwestern Gyeonggi Massif, consists of mainly gneiss and schist with locally intercalated quartzite and metamorphic calcareous rocks. Mineral assemblages of the gneiss and schist are classified into two type: sillimanite free (garnet zone) and sillimanite bearing (sillimanite zone) assemblages. In the Goyang area, Kyanite occurs as metastable relict grain in two gneiss samples, in which sillimanite, garnet, biotite, K-feldspar and plagioclase occur. Cordierite bearing mineral assemblages of gneiss are biotite+garnet+sillimanite+cordierite+plagioclase+quartz ($\pm$K-feldspar, muscovite), and represent the upper amphibolite or granulite facies metamorphism. The metamorphic complex has experienced two different regional metamorphism. The prograde metamorphism is a medium-pressure type characteries by kyanite. The peak metamorphic P-T condition of the prograde metamorphism calculated from the kyanite bearing rock is 7.0~9.4 kb and $718~778^{\circ}C$. The retrograde metamorphism, after the prograde metamorphism, is the low-pressure type characteries by occurrence of cordierite. The peak metamorphic P-T condition of later calculated from the cordierite bearing rock is 3.6~5.5 kb and $750~889^{\circ}C$. Together with the occurrence of relict kyanite, garnet+biotite+plagioclase assemblage as relict in the cordierite, and the result of estimated P-T metamorphic conditions indicate a clockwise P-T path.

Malaria is mainly transmitted by Anopheles sinensis which is dominant species in malaria high-risk area, northern part of Gyeonggi province in Korea. Pyrethroid insecticide is used for malaria vector, An. sinensis in Korea and the previous investigation consistently reported insecticide resistance from the vector. This study investigated insecticide susceptible and resistant alleles from An. sinensis and the status of malaria vector control in malaria high-risk area. For the study, An. sinensis collected from Paju, Gimpo and Ganghwa were sequenced for kdr detection. In Paju, there was no homozygous susceptibility and all of tested samples had homozygous or heterozygous resistance. There were 6.7% for susceptible homozygosity and 93.3% for resistant homozygosity or heterozygosity in Gimpo. Furthermore, the percentages of homozygous susceptibility and homozygous or heterozygous resistance in Ganghwa were 5.7% and 94.3% respectively. The results showed that the frequency of the insecticide resistance from An. sinensis in malaria high-risk area were increased much more than the previous investigation. Hence, this study suggests that malaria vector control programs should have to be prepared for the management of pyrethroid insecticide resistance.

The Boundary Region in Gyeonggi Province has environmental vulnerability due to the increasing development pressure although usually regarded as an ecologically well-preserved region. This paper is aimed to analyze the status of environmental loading on natural resources of the Boundary Region in Gyeonggi Province through investigating land-use conversion pattern during the past 15 years(1985-2000), the attitude of the local community towards conservation policy, and the status of environmental treatment facilities for water quality management. The results are as follows. Firstly, the development pressure has been focused upon the southwestern part of the Boundary Region in Gyeonggi Province such as Gimpo, Paju, Dongduocheon, and Yangju since 1995. Secondly, local residents' strong aversion exists towards the conservation policy led by the government because of their underdevelopment. Finally, the risk of environmental degradation is high because the region is not equipped with adequate environmental treatment facilities for water quality management. The status of environmental loading in the Boundary Region suggests the necessity to establish a well-designed management plan for natural resources in this area.

A survey of concrete plants in Incheon Metropolitan City and Gyeonggi Province was used to conduct an analysis of aggregate transport distance and production forms, as well as to evaluate the features and current status of aggregates distribution. As a result, areas such as Incheon, Siheung, Bucheon, Gimpo, and Siheung, where the distance to the demand points is less than 20 km, exhibited bidirectional distribution whereas Paju, Yongin, Yangju, and Pocheon, with distances ranging from 20 to 50 km is showed a unidirectional distribution pattern supplying aggregates exclusively to Incheon. Survey on manufacturing forms, more than 85% of the gravel dispersed in the Incheon area is made up of crushed aggregates derived from rocks discharged at construction sites indicating a considerable skew in supply chain. These findings are predicted to have a detrimental influence on aggregate supply in the long run, necessitating policy changes targeted at building an optimal aggregate distribution market.

To quantitatively predict the impacts of large-scale volcanic eruptions of Mt. Baekdu on air quality and damage around the Korean Peninsula, a three-dimensional chemistry-transport modeling system (Weather Research & Forecasting - Sparse Matrix Operation Kernel Emission - Comunity Multi-scale Air Quality) was adopted. A worst-case meteorology scenario was selected to estimate the direct impact on Korea. This study applied the typical worst-case scenarios that are likely to cause significant damage to Korea among worst-case volcanic eruptions of Mt. Baekdu in the past decade (2005~2014) and assumed a massive VEI 4 volcanic eruption on May 16, 2012, to analyze the concentration of PM_2.5 caused by the volcanic eruption. The effects of air quality in each region-cities, counties, boroughs-were estimated, and vulnerable areas were derived by conducting an exposure assessment reflecting vulnerable groups. Moreover, the effects of cities, counties, and boroughs were analyzed with a high-resolution scale (9 km × 9 km) to derive vulnerable areas within the regions. As a result of analyzing the typical worst-case volcanic eruptions of Mt. Baekdu, a discrepancy was shown in areas between high PM_2.5 concentration, high population density, and where vulnerable groups are concentrated. From the result, PM_2.5 peak concentration was about 24,547 ㎍/㎥, which is estimated to be a more serious situation than the eruption of Mt. St. Helensin 1980, which is known for 540 million tons of volcanic ash. Paju, Gimpo, Goyang, Ganghwa, Sancheong, Hadong showed to have a high PM_2.5 concentration. Paju appeared to be the most vulnerable area from the exposure assessment. While areas estimated with a high concentration of air pollutants are important, it is also necessary to develop plans and measures considering densely populated areas or areas with high concentrations of susceptible population or vulnerable groups. Also, establishing measures for each vulnerable area by selecting high concentration areas within cities, counties, and boroughs rather than establishing uniform measures for all regions is needed. This study will provide the foundation for developing the standards for disaster declaration and preemptive response systems for volcanic eruptions.

The climate change affects the growth and development of weeds as well as the outbreak of weeds. Especially, the occurrences of problematic paddy weeds due to climate change might cause the difficulties in weed control. This study therefore, investigated the current dominance and distribution of paddy weeds. As a result of the study on paddy weeds in northern Gyeonggi-do, there were total of 65 taxonomy groups including 23 family, 41 genus, 57 species, 7 subspecies and 1 variety. Among all the plants, 46 species were annual plants and 16 were perennial plants. Echinochloa crus-galli was the highest in importance analysis and the followings were in order of Ludwigia prostrate and Lemna paucicostata. The similarity of different paddy weeds in different regions observed through TWINSPAN analysis was distinguished by Fimbristylis miliacea, Rotala indica and Cyperus flaccidus. Regional differences shown in CCA analysis using weed species and soil environment revealed that Gimpo-si and Namyangju-si has difference soil and weeds, which are features that distinguished them from other regions. In northern Gyeonggi-do the result of paddy weed research showed the interregional difference not in dominant weeds but in distribution species.

In 6 locations of Kyong-gi province, 120 soybean fields were examined to study the distribution of plant nematode genera. Heterodera glycines was found in $71.7\%$ of soybean fields examined. Among nematode genera infesting over $50\%$ of soybean fields were Aphclcllchus $70.8\%$, Aphelenchoides $68.3\%$, Tylenchus $66.7\%$ and Ditylenchus $52,5\%$. The populations of genera Aphelenchoides, Aphelenchus, Ditylenchus and Tylenchorhynchus were over 1000 nematodes/500g of soil sample in some soybean fields. Of the genera found from the survey, Heterodera, Trichodorus. Xiphinema and Pratylenchus seem to be most important to soybean. Fourteen genera were identified from Yeoncheon, and 13 from Yangju, 10 each from Paju, Kimpo and Namyangju and 9 from Goyang.

A result of national malaria surveillance in Korean civilians was described. Since a case of indigenous vivax malaria was detected in 1993, a total of 2,198 cases was confirmed by blood smear up to 1997. Of them, 1,548 cases were soldiers serving in the demilitarized zone (DMZ), while 650 cases were civilians. Number of civilian cases was 3 in 1994, 19 in 1995, 71 in 1996, and 557 in 1997. Of them, 239 were ex-soldiers who discharged after military service in the prevalent areas such as Paju, Yonchon, Kimpo, Kangwha, Tongduchon in Kyonggi-do and Chorwon in Kangwon-do while 308 patients were civilian residents in the prevalent areas. Seventy-two patients, living nationwide, had a history of visiting the prevalent areas during transmission season. Only 32 civilian patients denied any relation with the prevalent areas. As a whole, a half of the civilian cases was diagnosed when living in non-prevalent areas. Male patients in their twenties was the highest in number. Annual parasite index is steadily elevated in residents living in the prevalent areas. Monthly incidence showed an unimodal distribution, forming a peak in August. Ex-soldiers exhibited a delayed incubation ranging from 153 to 452 days ($279{\pm}41$ days). The time required for diagnosis was shortened from 23.6 days in 1995 to 13.7 days in 1997. Although the current epidemic of vivax malaria started as a border malaria, it seems highly probable that vivax malaria is established in the local areas and responsible for at least a part of transmission.
