Agricultural sciences field in South Korea has many strong points such as numerous researchers, establishment of research infra-structure, excellence in research competitiveness and high technological level. However, there are also many weaknesses including insufficient leadership at related societies and institutes, deficiency of the next generation research group, and insufficiency in research productivity. There are many opportunities including increasing the importance of the biotechnological industry, activating international cooperation researches, and exploring the multitude of possible research areas to be studied. However, some threats still exist, such as pressure from the government of developed countries to open the agricultural market, the decrease of specialized farms, and intensification for researches to gratify economic and social demands. To encourage research activities in the agricultural sciences field in Korea, the following actions and systems are required: 1) formulation of a mid- and a long-term research master plan, 2) development of a database on the man power in related fields, 3) activation of top-down research topics, and associated increase of individual research grants, 4) development of special national programs for basic researches in agricultural sciences, 5) organization of a committee for policy and planning within the related societies, and 6) system development for the fair evaluation of the research results.

The five fish meal kojis which contained various ratios of barley were prepared and processed to produce six different fish-soy sauces. The chemical compositions including enzyme activities during fermentation were determined and sensory evaluation was done and changes of absorbance during heating process were also measured. The contents of reducing sugar increased until 12 hours, then slightly decreased and maintained constant level after 36 hours during koji making. The contents of total nitrogen were proportional to the amount of fish meal used in koji. The activities of amylase and protease were increased until 48 hours and then were not changed during koji making. The contents of reducing sugar were increased until 50 days and then were not much changed during koji making. The contents of nitrogen and amino nitrogen in sauces were increased gradually during fermentation. The total acid contents of sauces were increased until 70 days, after which it was constant during fermentation. The absorbances of sauces were increased with time during heating process. In sensory test, the fish-soy sauce the ratio of fish meal: barley of which was 10 : 16 received the highest score for flavor of sauce and the conventional soy sauce, for color and taste in a soup test. Fish-soy sauce resulted good quality when the ratio of fish meal to barley was 10 to 13 and 10 to 16.

We researched the change of astigmatism power when the fixation point moved from far distance to near distance. Astigmatism power was measured by using both eyes open-view auto-refractometer. We divided the ages between 5 and 67 years old into 12 groups with 1,598 healthy eyes(male-698 eyes and female-900 eyes) without eyes problems and experiences of eyes operations. The mean power in far astigmatism showed that with-the-rule of the total astigmatism: -0.79D, with-the-rule of the corneal astigmatism: -1.07D and against-the-rule of the residual astigmatism : -0.79D were found most respectively. The correlation between cornea astigmatism and total astigmatism was y=0.7493 x + 0.5661 r=0.6510, residual astigmatism and total astigmatism was y=0.248 x - 0.5926 r=0.2598 and corneal astigmatism and residual astigmatism was y=-0.4439 x - 0.1813 r=-0.5551 in the far distance. The mean power in near astigmatism showed that with-the-rule of total astigmatism : -0.92D, with-the-rule of corneal astigmatism : -1.12D, against-the-rule of residual astigmatism : -0.87D were found most respectively. In the near distance, The correlation between corneal astigmatism and total astigmatism was y=0.6872 x + 0.5934 r=0.6204, residual astigmatism and total astigmatism was y=0.303 x - 0.6066 r=0.3165, corneal astigmatism and residual astigmatism was y=-0.46 x - 0.0626 r=-0.5322. When the fixation point moved far distance to near distance, the differences of power according to the type of astigmatism were total astigmatism: $-0.07D{\pm}0.44D$, corneal astigmatism: $-0.04D{\pm}0.54D$ residual astigmatism:$0.01D{\pm}0.53D$. Most of astigmatism refractive power was increased except for oblique-the -astigmatism. When the fixation point moved far distance to near distance, the change of astigmatism refractive power showed total astigmatism: 540 eyes(33.7%), corneal astigmatism: 638 eyes(39.9%), residual: 841 eyes(52.6%).

This synthesis has been prepared from a review of literature on Truck Escape Ramps technology and a survey of current practice by state department of transportation. Their locations have been determined usually from a combination of accident experience and en-gineering judgement, but new tools are emerging that can identify needs and sites without waiting for catastrophic accidents to happen. The Grade Severity Rating Systems holds promise in this regard. Design Procedures for truck excape ramps continue to evolve. Gravel arrester beds are clearly the preferred choice across the country Rounded aggregate, uniformly graded in the approximate size range of 13 to 18mm. Tech-nical publications typically have dassified TER types as paved gravity, sandpile, and ar-rester bed ramps. The design speed for vehicle entry into the ramp in critical to the deter-mination of ramp length. An escape ramp should be designed for a minimum entry speed of 130km/hr, a 145km/hr design being preferred. The ramps should be straight and their angle to the roadway align-ment should be as possible. The grade of truck escape ramps show the adjustment of ramp design to local topography, such as the tradeoff of ramp length against earthwork requirements. A width of 9 to 12m would more safety acommodate two or more outof con-trol vehicles. Reguarding comments on the most effective material, most respondents cited their own specification or referred to single graded, rounded pea gravel. The consensus essentially Is that single graded, well -rounded gravel is the most desirable material for use in arrester beds. The arrester beds should be constructed with a minimum aggregate depth of 30cm. Successful ramps have used depths between 30 and 90cm.

The relationship between the transport of eggs and larvae of Anchovy (Engraulis japonica) and the oceanic condition in the southern sea of Korea was examined on August and November 1996. In summer (August), when the Tsushima Warm Current is strong near to the coast, the warm waters such as warm streamers from the Tsushima Warm Current intrude into the coastal area, and cyclonic circulations are formed. The warm water intrusions also generate wakes around Komun Island, Sori Island and Koje Island. In the coastal area where the warm water intrusions occur, the nutrients, dissolved oxygen, suspended solid and chlorophyll are concentrated in probably relation to the upwelling concerned with this warm streamer and/or the wakes. Anchovy eggs and larvae are transported to the coastal area by the cyclonic circulations. The hatching and growth of anchovy larvae are increased because of high primary production in the cyclonic circulations. However, as the amount of Copepods which are a main food for anchovy larvae decrease in the coastal area, anchovy larvae seem to move to the Isushima Warm Water area for seeking a prey. In autumn (November), the Tsushima Warm Current is far away from the coast. In this season the warm water intrusions almost disappear, and the small scaled frontal eddies are formed between the coastal water and the Tsushima Warm Water. As the surface water moves towards offshore, few anchovy eggs and larvae were sampled in the survey area. Chemical and biological substances are concentrated in the leftdown sides of the small scaled frontal eddies because of eddy formation.

The study is aimed to suggest a preliminary data on the improvement of children's recreational facility to enhance children's creativity at Sangsang Children Park Project(SCPP) in Seoul Metropolitan City being the case study. The book review, especially the field observation was implemented by the video recording methods for analyzing the children's play behavior with regard to the six sites of the SCPP that was constructed in March 2008 until May 2010. Because of the research, the first 21 patterns of the creative activities were shown. Second, the prime using rates of facilities were the combination of play facilities among other play facilities like swings, slides, trembling horse etc. However, more children's creative behaviors occurred on independent play facilities like swing, trembling horse, etc. than at combination play facilities. Third, children's creative behaviors diversely occurred at a moving or fluid facility like a swing, trembling horse and a spatial facility like sand field more than a fixed facility like combination play facility. Fourth, children's creative behavior could be divided and evaluated by five categories and elements of fluency: the flexibility, the creativity, the elaborateness, and the imagination. Nevertheless, it was assumed that the creative elements of the five categories were mixed together with each other instead of showing an individual characteristic. Fifth, based on this analysis, the research reached out to the conclusion that the combination play facility of imaginary children's park would be designed together with more fluid and spatial facilities to improve the children's creativity. Finally, It was proposed that the play facilities of imaginary children's park like drawing wall or board, spatial play facilities and handicraft facilities etc. would be introduced to improve sorts of creativeness on elaborateness and imagination shown less than the fluency, flexibility, and originality.

According to viewpoints of researchers and stakeholders, various opinions can be suggested on self-governing police system. Therefore, success of Korean self-governing police system will be defending on how to balance among conflicting values such as Empowerment, Political neutrality, Financial issues, Comprehensive competence in maintaining public safety. Before the launching of self-governing police system nation-wide, the experience of Jeju provincial police will be valuable model case. In specific, enlargement of work scope of self-governing police in Jeju province which has been introduced since last year will be a useful reference. There is more pessimism about self-governing police of Jeju province so far. However, this perspective is mostly based on the issue regarding hardwares such as manpower, equipment, law and organization. Issues regarding softwares such as organizational culture, operation system and work process need more attention to evaluate self-governing police system properly. To mark the first year after enlargement of work scope of Jeju police, this study demonstrate the overall result and implications of self-governing police of Jeju province based on documents, statistics, reports and media reports. In result, several preconditions are needed to implement the self-governing police system nation-wide successfully. 1. Strengthen the link between local government and local police 2. Establish the foundation for collaboration of state and local police 3. Enhance the aspect of citizen autonomy in local level 4. Reinforcing the capability of handling situation of state and local police 5. Invigorating the inter-organizational working group to operate self-governing police system effectively. The self-governing police system is unclosed topic to discuss. After this study, in-depth studies should be followed with more resources. Particularly, additional perspective including redundancy and equity need to be considered regarding self-governing police. By getting with the changes of macroscopic trends - lowbirth and aging, the fourth industrial revolution and possible reunification of north and south Koreas - these studies should suggest the long-term blueprint of self-governing police system of Korea.

Effect of gamma irradiation on the microbiological and physicochemical characteristics of steamed waxy corns was determined in order to develop preservation techniques to enhance shelf-life during storage at room or low temperature. The initial total microbial count, and yeast & molds steamed waxy corns before irradiation were $2.1{\times}10^3CFU/g,\;1.9{\times}10^3CFU/g$, respectively. However, the total microbial count were completely inactivated and the count of yeast and molds were only 34 CFU/g at 3 kGy treatment When non-irradiated steamed waxy corns were stored at $25^{\circ}C$ for 7 months, the growth of total microbial counts and yeasts & molds were rapidly increased up to $7.1{\times}10^6CFU/g\;and\;1.9{\times}10^7CFU/g$, respectively. However, the total microbial counts at 3 kGy treatment and yeast & molds at 5 kGy treatment for 7 month storage were completely inactivated Similar result was observed at $15^{\circ}C$ and $4^{\circ}C$ storage. The Hardness of the irradiated steamed waxy corns and irradiation dose were not significantly different from those of the non-irradiated steamed waxy corns before storage, but the hardness of non-irradiated steamed waxy corns was significantly increased during the storage, compared to those of irradiated corns. The water content of both irradiated and non-irradiated steamed waxy corns after 7 month storage were significantly decreased from $65{\sim}60%$ to 30% but the changes of water content among treatments or irradiation doses were not significantly different during storage. Sugar contents in the irradiated steamed waxy corns were less free than those of non-irradiated samples and the amount of free sugar slowly increased as storage temperature increased. Sensory evaluation result showed that total sensory scores in irradiated steamed waxy corns were better than those of non-irradiated samples and total sensory scores were increased as irradiation doses increased.
