Biodiesel is known as an environmentally friendly neutral fuel, and a policy of obligatory mixing of a certain ratio is implemented on land. In this study, to verify the feasibility of using biodiesel as a ship fuel, component analysis, metal corrosion test, and storage stability test were performed on the mixing ratios of 0 %, 5 %, 10 %, and 20 % of marine diesel and biodiesel. Component analysis evaluated a total of eight factors including density, kinematic viscosity and flash point according to ISO 8217:2017 standards and the reliability of biodiesel through metal corrosion tests and storage stability tests under atmosphere temperature and harsh conditions (60 ℃) for 180 days. Results demonstrate that component analysis satisfied the ISO 8217:2017 standard in all biodiesel mixing ratios. Furthermore, as the biodiesel mixing ratio increased, the kinematic viscosity, density, and acid value increased and the sulfur content decreased. Metal corrosion rarely occurred in the case of carbon steel, iron, aluminum, and nickel, whereas in the case of copper, corrosion occurred under the influence of oxygen-rich biodiesel under the harsh conditions (60 ℃) of 20 % biodiesel mixture. As for storage stability, discoloration, sludge formation, and fuel separation were not visually confirmed.

Gunpo city, a medium sized city formed with a basin is populated with a little more than 270,000 peoples and includes the industrial area with about 600 factories. It has been recognized for a long time that peoples living nearby industrial area have complained on serious air contamination due to the geographical and environmental factors. This study was performed on measurement of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and malodor for the air sampled in various places of Gunpo city, and made comparison with VOCs levels in specific area of Seoul. This work would play important role for the efficient management of air contamination of Gunpo city. Samplings were done in the rooftop of eleven village office buildings including Gunpo station in June 12th, 2001. Analytical results indicate that VOCs levels of Gunpo-1-dong, Gunpo station and Kumjungdong regions neighboring industrial area were much higher than the rest of areas, and this fact shows that the origin for air contamination of Gunpo would be industrial area than car exhaustion gases.

강화플라스틱(FRP)이 가진 저비용 장점에 비하여 화재 및 환경오염 문제가 대두됨에 따라서 알루미늄 소형 선박에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 알루미늄 재질의 선박 건조에도 절단, 성형, 용접 및 조립의 과정이 필요하지만, 소형 선박에는 박판이 사용되기 때문에 일반 강선과는 다른 공법 및 가공 조립법이 사용된다. 본 기사는 알루미늄 재료의 절단 공법, 용접 공법의 현황과 미래 기술 방향을 정리하였다. 또한 성형 공정의 문제점과 이를 위한 개선 방안을 제시함으로써 알루미늄 선박의 건조 생산성 향상 및 정도 관리의 편의성을 위한 방안을 모색하고자 한다.

Gaesung city of North Korea is meaningful because of the development of Gaesung industrial complex as a peace-building project and economical cooperation works between South Korea and North Korea. This article presents the characteristics of natural landscape of Gaesung through geographical names. This research was studied by literature analysis of North Korea, depth interview of North Korean labour and refugees, and second times fieldwork. The main results of this study are as follows. Firstly, the mountain landscape of Geasung revealed on geographical names characterized mountainousness and round shape. Especially, the places where are enclosed by mountain and streams are foggy and rocky. Next the landscape of stream characterizes sandy, unstable, and tidal river. Thirdly the fauna and flora which are reflected on geographical names are hawk, snake, tiger, homed owl, snapping turtle, chestnut tree, pine tree, pear tree, zelkova tree, and willow etcetera. The environmental conditions of habitation of these are similar to the natural environment of Gaesung. Besides, the geographical names related to soil distributed in northern mountain area of Geasung. The place names implicated cliff located on the riverside. In addition to this, the geographical name of 'Bul' implicated plain distributed in the riverside of 'Seoam' which a branch stream of 'Sacheo'. And the place names related rock located in place enclosed by mountain, river, and village. In cnclusion, Gaesung is more important to us as the Gaesung industrial complex and tourism development. But the fundamental research on Gaesung is a few because Gaesung belongs to North Korea. Therefore, this research will be useful for the control and management of Gaesung in the future.

Maritime accidents, such as the collision of a fishing boat in Incheon's Yeongheung Island, result in several casualties and property damage, even if they occur just once. To prevent such accidents, the Incheon Metropolitan Government is implementing safety management policies; further, they will provide ship collision warning services to prevent collisions on WAVE (Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment) communication-based ship safety operation pilot projects. However, to realize these objectives, a service standardization method is required that defines specific service types, configurations, and systems, which should be prepared based on user requirement analyses. In this study, a standardization method of WAVE communication-based collision warning service was developed by analyzing the requirements of the vessel operators subject to the services and related authorities. This will help improve the quality of service, ensuring professionalism and reliability through continuous improvement and efforts for standardization, as well as data derived from demonstration projects. Therefore, it is expected to help prevent maritime accidents to a considerable extent.

The large scale rock falling had occurred on 22nd February, 2007 in the Cheongbuldong valley area of Seoraksan National Park, and the visiting pass had been closed for a while. Similar cases of rock falling have occurred in the latest years according to a great variety of crack, joint, weathering of solid rock and surface water caused by a recent climatic change in the Seoraksan National Park. In this study, rock falling energy was estimated and the movement of rockslide was analysed based on detailed investigation on large scale rockslides occurring at the spot 80 m high from the bottom of the valley. From analysing results, the effective management method for rock falling was proposed. The method could minimized the dangerous factors with no change of natural environment of the National Park.

가뭄은 세계적으로 농업, 경제, 사회적 영향을 초래할 수 있는 가장 파괴적인 자연 재해 중 하나이다. 지구 온난화로 인하여 기온이 상승하고 증발산량의 증가와 강수량의 변화로 가뭄의 빈도와 정도가 더욱 심각하고 발생지역이 널리 확산 될 것으로 예상된다. 이러한 가뭄지역의 피해를 최소화하기 위해 다양한 가뭄지수가 개발되어 가뭄의 심도를 정량화 하려는 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 기존의 가뭄지수의 대부분은 생태계 반응보다는 환경적 조건에서 파생 된 가뭄에 초점을 두고 있다. 이를 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 정규화 된 생태계 가뭄 지수 (NEDI)라는 새로운 접근법을 사용하였다. 따라서 우리나라를 대상으로 새로운 가뭄지수인 NEDI를 사용하여 기존에 사용되던 SPI (Standardized Precipitation Index), PDSI(Palmer Drought Severity Index)와 비교하며 기후변화로 인하여 미래에 나타날 수 있는 가뭄의 통계적 특성을 분석하였다. NEDI에서 채택 된 정규화 기능은 다른 지역, 계절 및 식생 유형에 따라 가뭄 심각성을 비교하는 것이 가능하다. 새로운 가뭄 지수는 관개 및 물 분배 관리 관행에 유용한 도구를 제공하여 가뭄 상황이 만연해지면서 수자원 보존 노력을 향상시킬 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.
