This paper attempts to analyze the inner and outer structure of royal tombs that were built during the Joseon Period. This analysis is based on the relevant historical records and they were restored through visual composition in order to compare the features of Joseon royal tombs with those of Goryeo royal tombs and common tombs of the Joseon Period. Royal tombs of the Joseon Dynasty are structurally solid and contain a variety of artistic ornaments that symbolize guardian deities both inside and outside to protect the owners of the tombs for a long time. According to historical records such as Sejong sillok oryeui (Five Rites of State from the Annals of King Sejong) and Gukjo oryeui (Five Rites of State), it is presumed that the inner structure of royal tombs dating back to the early Joseon Period consisted of a stone chamber and that the byeongpungseok and nanganseok were built outside of the tomb. However, ever since King Sejo left it in his will not to make a stone chamber in his tomb, the royal tombs began to follow a new pattern, a burial pit outside the coffin filled with lime powder. Gukjo sangnye bopyeon (Supplement Book of the State Funeral Rites), which was compiled during the reign of King Yeongjo, is a book that shows how the royal tombs were formed in the late Joseon Period. The book explains in detail how lime powder was used to fill the burial pit of royal tombs. The byeongpungseok used during the late Joseon Period were engraved with peony flowers, while those previously made were engraved with twelve spirit warriors. Peony designs were frequently used to decorate the items of royal families, and the use of peony designs in tombs reflects the idea of regarding the royal tombs as an everyday living space for the deceased.

Purpose: In this study, the hospice nursing research trend in 1998~2017 was investigated by analyzing research articles on hospice nursing. Methods: Literature search was performed with keywords of 'nursing' and 'hospice on an academic research information service. Also reviewed were all articles published in the Korean Journal of Nursing Science and its 8 subcategory journals, the Korean Journal of Hospice and Palliative Care and the Korean Hospice Association from 1998 through 2017, except thesis papers. Results: In 2013~2017, 79 articles (31.0%) were relevant, up over 7% from 61 articles (23.9%) in 2008~2012. The most studied field was psychology (92 papers, 36.2%) in the Korean Journal of Hospice and Palliative Care. Enrolled in most papers were patients with end-stage cancer (75, 29.5%), which is overwhelmingly high. Most studies used quantitative methods (183, 72.0%). Recognition was the most studied theme (62, 24.4%), and 16 of them focused on recognition of death (6.3%). Intervention studies totaled 34 (13.4%), and most of them (7, 2.8%) were conducted for palliative education. Conclusion: Most hospice nursing studies were quantitative studies, conducted with patients, and hospice nursing intervention programs were similar to each other. Thus, more studies with hospice patients and their families are needed. And more experimental and qualitative studies are needed to build an evidence-based nursing study environment. Considering how most studies examined psychological factors, physiological factors such as pain, a major issue in hospice care, should be analyzed in experimental studies to construct a pain intervention program for hospice patients.

The variation of fish community by reduced amount of water in the Cheonggye Stream was investigation from April to October 2018. Water depth decreased by 10~50 cm according to the stations, compared with 2011, before the amount of water decreased. Twelve species of five families appeared during the survey period. Short barbel gudgeon and Zacco koreanus belonging to the Korean endemic species such appeared in the stations. Seven species of Rhodeus uyekii, Acheilognathus yamatsutae, Acheilognathus gracilis, Hemibarbus labeo, Abbottina rivularis, Opsariichthys uncirostris amurensis, and Erythroculter erythropterus did not appear in 2018. After the decreased amount water, the fish species which increased rapidly was Zacco platypus and increased to 24.9% in the relative abundance of fishes. Dominant species of each station were Acheilognathus yamatsutae (St. 4) and Zacco platypus (St. 1, 2, 2). Results to water quality tolerance guild analysis of fish, number of species belonging to sensitive species decreased from 34.0% to 8.5%, there was no significant difference inter-mediate species, and tolerance species increased from 50.2% to 75.5%. Insectivore species sharply decreased from 48.1% to 19.2%, there was no significant difference carnivore and herbivore, and omnivore rapidly increased from 51.6% to 80.7%. Dominant index 0.76 from 0.62 to increased, diversity index 1.80 from 1.33 to reduced, evenness index 0.57 from 0.42 to reduced, and richness index 3.02 from 2.90 to decreased.

In order to resolve the imbalances in the supply of living SOCs according to socio-economic status, location, and population groups, the discussions on inclusive city policies are expanding. The purpose of this study is to propose an Index of Park Derivation (IPD) as an alternative indicator for the promotion of an inclusive urban park policy that can be applied in the 7 major metropolitan cities to select a region with a relatively high park needs. The main research results are as follows. First, the concept of an inclusive urban park policy is defined as "a policy to supply to manage high-quality park services with priority given to areas with low socio-economic and environmental status, such as a large amount of elderly, children, low-income families, areas vulnerable to disasters, such as heat and fine dust, and population groups." Second, we developed the index of park derivation (IPD), which is a combination of 17 variables including park service level, demographic characteristics, economic and educational level, health level, and environmental vulnerability. The variables that constitute the index of park deprivation (IPD) can be applied to SOC policies outside the parks, such as sports facilities, daycare centers, kindergartens, and public libraries. Third, applying index of park deprivation (IPD) to 1,148 Eup/Myeon/dong areas of the 7 metropolitan cities resulted in areas with relatively high park service needs. This study implies that the central and the local government suggest an alternative index to promote an inclusive urban park policy based on statistical and geographical information and data that can be easily accessed and utilized.

In this study, we surveyed the fish community at the four sites(St. 1, 3, 5, 7) in Jungrang Stream from 2008 to 2016. We found 37 species grouped into nine families. There were three exotic species; Cyprinus carpio, Carassius cuvieri and Micropterus salmoides after rainfall. Dominant species was Zacco platypus (57.3%) and subdominant species was Carassius auratus(10.4%) in a community. The water quality, surveyed at the six sites(St. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), based on eight factors(Water temperature, pH, DO, BOD, SS, EC, TN and TP), largely varied depending on each site and period. Minimum values in four factors(BOD, EC, TN and TP) were observed in rainy season, indicating an ionic and nutrient dilution of stream water by precipitation. In contrast, a maximum value in SS was occurred in rainy season at St. 2 and St. 5. The precipitation, Maximum value observed in July ($497.5{\pm}297.2mm$), minimum value in January ($12.9{\pm}8.6mm$). In July and August, the precipitation was divided into before and after the rainfall season in Jungrang stream. Using cluster analysis three fish sites (St. 1, 3, 5) were identified as significantly influence 11 fish species; Hemiculter eigenmanni, Squalidus japonicus coreanus, Hemibarbus labeo, Gnathopogon strigatus, Pungtungia herzi, Rhynchocypris oxycephalus, Pseudogobio esocinus, Pseudorasbora parva, Cyprinus carpio, Carassius auratus and Zacco platypus by rainfall.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the difficulties with end-of-life care (EOLC) experienced by intensive care unit (ICU) nurses and to investigate their educational needs for EOLC. Methods: Mixed methods were used to survey ICU nurses at a university hospital. Quantitative data (N=106) were collected through a questionnaire and analyzed using an independent samples t-test, ANOVA, Mann-Whitney U test and $Scheff{\acute{e}}$ test. Qualitative data (N=19) were collected through focus group interviews and analyzed through qualitative content analysis. Results: The mean score on the difficulty of EOLC was 3.41 out of 5. The education needs derived from the qualitative analysis was categorized into four themes: 1) guidelines on professional EOLC, 2) spiritual care, 3) a program to take care of feelings of patients, families and nurses, and 4) activities to think about death. Conclusion: This study confirmed that ICU nurses were experiencing an extreme difficulty in providing EOLC. In addition, a qualitative analysis confirmed that they needed an EOL nursing program. To mitigate the difficulties experienced by nurses involved in EOLC, there is an urgent need to develop an education program for EOLC tailored to nurses' needs.
