  • European Union unilaterally included the emissions from aviation activities into EU ETS on 19 November 2008 by amending Directive 2003/87/EC. According to the Directive all the emissions(mainly against the CO2) from aviation activities shall be subject to the regulation of EU ETS from 2012. For the period from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2012, the total quantity of allowances to be allocated to aircraft operators shall be equivalent to 97% of the historical aviation emission s. From 1 January 2013, the allowances will be reduced to 95%. The allocation of allowances which may be applied by each operator with free of charge will be reduced from 85% to 82% from 1 January 2012 to 1 January 2013. Since the Directive will affect every country's airline industry more or less, the nations and international organizations respond variously. The controversial focus is that whether EU has the right to unilaterally include the emissions from international aviation activities into EU ETS. This article firstly analyzes the effect caused by EU ETS to China's airline industry, and then studies the legality of the action of EU subject to current positive international law, and finally draws the conclusion that EU enjoys no such right to unilaterally include the emissions from international aviation activities.

  • With the increased interest in renewable energy, various hydrogen production technologies have been developed. Hydrogen production can be classified into green, blue, gray, and pink hydrogen depending on the production method; each method has different technical performance, costs, and CO2 emission characteristics. Hence, selecting the technology priorities that meet the company strategy is essential to develop technologically and economically feasible projects and achieve the national carbon neutrality targets. In addition, in early development technologies, analyzing the technology investment priorities based on the company's strategy and establishing investment decisions such as budget and human resources allocation is important. This study proposes a method of selecting priorities for various hydrogen production technologies as a specific implementation plan to achieve the national carbon neutrality goal. In particular, we analyze key performance indicators for technology, economic feasibility, and environmental performance by various candidate technologies and suggest ways to score them. As a result of the analysis using the aforementioned method, the priority of steam methane reforming (SMR) technology combined with carbon capture & storage (CCS) was established to be high in terms of achieving the national carbon neutrality goal.

  • Recently, Korea parliament legislated the Low Carbon Green Growth Act (April, 2012) and approved a bill (May, 2012) to start carbon emission trading system in 2015. It means that for the first time, government would regulate the amounts of carbon emission in private entities, and private entities should attain predefined emission reduction goals by implementing clean development mechanism (CDM) project or buy the Certified Emission Reductions (CERs) from the trading market to avoid penalty. Under these circumstances, it is not easy for them to determine when or how to implement the CDM project because the governmental energy policies about the level of governmental subsidies, periods for free emission allocation, etc. are still under discussion and the future price of the CERs is quite uncertain. Thus, this study presents a real-option based model to assess the financial viability of the CDM project which switches bunker-C oil to liquefied natural gas (LNG). The proposed model is expected to assist private entities in establishing the investment strategy for CDM project under uncertain government energy policies.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to explore the perspectives of frontline nurses working during the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Methods: An online qualitative study was conducted using a pragmatic approach. The data were collected in August 2021. Registered Korean nurses who provided direct nursing care to patients with confirmed COVID-19 were eligible for this study. An online survey was used to gather free-text data, which were then analyzed using machine-based network analysis and summative content analysis. Results: The analysis examined the responses of 126 participants and led to the identification of six prominent themes. These themes were further classified into three distinct levels: personal, task, and organizational. The identified themes are as follows: "collapse of personal life," "being overwhelmed by the numerous roles required," "personal protective equipment was sufficiently provided, but that is not enough," "changes in interprofessional collaboration," "inappropriate workforce management," and "diverted allocation of healthcare services and resources." Conclusion: Our findings highlight areas for improvement in resources, systems, and policies to enhance preparedness for future pandemics.

  • 농업지역의 소하천에 흐르는 하천수는 유역의 농업활동으로 유출된 각종 영양염류의 함량이 높아 호소 유입시 부영양화의 원인이 된다. 본 연구에서는 농업지역의 하천수를 처리하기 위해 조성된 자유수면형 인공습지의 수문학적 유로에 따른 영양염류의 농도를 평가하고자 수행되었다. 습지내 유로에 따른 영양염류의 농도를 평가하기 위한 모니터링은 2009년 4월부터 2011년 11월까지 습지내 유로의 5개 지점에서 수행되었다. 채취된 시료는 유로에 따른 수질변화를 분석하기 위하여 질소와 인에 대한 집중적 분석이 수행되었다. 습지내 TP 저류의 원인을 평가한 결과 수온, DO 및 pH가 큰 영향을 끼치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 습지내 유입수가 침강지를 통과한 직후 영양염류의 농도가 가장 크게 저감된 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 많은 양의 영양소가 입자와 부착된 형태로 이동하기 때문인 것으로 판단되기에 향후 습지 설계시 침강지의 기능 증대 방안 도입이 중요한 인자인 것으로 평가된다. 그러나 습지내에서 가장 큰 영양염류 저감이 발생한 지점은 유로의 85% 지점인 것으로 나타났다. 이는 습지내 미생물 및 식생흡입에 의한 영향으로 평가되기에 이를 활성화 하기 위한 얕은 습지 및 깊은 습지의 적절한 배치도 인공습지 설계에서 중요한 인자임을 보여주고 있다. 마지막 침전지 부분에서는 영양염류의 농도가 증가하는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 길어진 체류시간에 의한 퇴적층으로부터 용출이 원인인 것으로 평가되기에 습지설계시 침전지의 적정한 체류시간 확보가 중요한 것으로 나타났다.

  • Background: Plants are able to optimize defense responses induced by various herbivores, which have different feeding strategies. Local and systemic responses within a plant after herbivory are essential to modulate herbivore-specific plant responses. For instance, leaf-chewing herbivores elicit jasmonic acid signaling, which result in the inductions of toxic chemicals in the attacked leaf (tissue-specific responses) and also in the other unattacked parts of the plant (systemic responses). Root herbivory induces toxic metabolites in the attacked root and alters the levels of transcripts and metabolites in the unattacked shoot. However, we have little knowledge of the local and systemic responses against stem-boring herbivores. In this study, we examined the systemic changes in metabolites in the wild tobacco Nicotiana attenuata, when the stem-boring herbivore Trichobaris mucorea attacks. Results: To investigate the systemic responses of T. mucorea attacks, we measured the levels of jasmonic acid (JA), JA-dependent secondary metabolites, soluble sugars, and free amino acids in 7 distinct tissues of N. attenuata: leaf lamina with epidermis (LLE), leaf midrib (LM), stem epidermis (SE), stem pith (SP), stem vascular bundle (SV), root cortex with epidermis (RCE), and root vascular bundle (RV). The levels of JA were increased in all root tissues and in LM by T. mucorea attacks. The levels of chlorogenic acids (CGAs) and nicotine were increased in all stem tissues by T. mucorea. However, CGA was systematically induced in LM, and nicotine was systematically induced in LM and RCE. We further tested the resource allocation by measuring soluble sugars and free amino acids in plant tissues. T. mucorea attacks increased the level of free amino acids in all tissues except in LLE. The levels of soluble sugars were significantly decreased in SE and SP, but increased in RV. Conclusions: The results reveal that plants have local- and systemic-specific responses in response to attack from a stem-boring herbivore. Interestingly, the level of induced secondary metabolites was not consistent with the systemic inductions of JA. Spatiotemporal resolution of plant defense responses against stem herbivory will be required to understand how a plant copes with attack from herbivores from different feeding guilds.

  • This study analyzed characteristics of visual circulation in the modern museum architecture while carrying out space syntax and visibility graph analysis side by side in order to solve problems of visitors' movement having been suggested as the point at issue at modern museum architecture that has become big scaled and layering so as to satisfy various social demands. Also, the result of this analysis is same as followings. First, visitors become to watch the exhibition with clear position that can make themselves in right allocation, and thus visual and perceptual confusions were shown as relatively low in case physical position and visual one were matched at major space of atrium type or mediation space. Second, it was appeared a lot at the museum having exhibition space of room type in case the physical position and visual one were not matched. Visual circulation in the exhibition space of room type has a merit of forming the circulation where free selection is possible. However, it have raised concerns that visual passageway of visitors could be in a stalemate or crash at the opening part, not at the exhibition hall. Third, though analysis of space syntax had a merit of analyzing total modern museum architectures having became compounded and big scaled, but it was dropped in reliability from the visual circulation's analysis that was decided by flows of space and time. In contrary, visibility graph analysis was shown as having a merit to analyzing the flows rather than that of total structure, and also appeared as being able to supplement the disadvantage of space syntax in methodology. Upon the above analysis, a lot of architectural elements such as allocation of exhibition hall, location of door and window etc. were appeared as affecting influences to forming visual circulation of visitors, not to mention of allocations of major space, mediation space, and exhibition one. Through this study, various possibilities of quantitative analysis on the visual circulation in the museum architectures can be confirmed. However, this study expects that in-depth subsequent researches objecting to various museums could be realized afterwards because there are still limitations in its analysis.

  • CLDC는 가비지 콜렉션을 위해, 가비지 콜렉션이 필요한 시점에 모든 작업을 수행하는 스탑더 월드 가비지 콜렉션 알고리즘을 일반적으로 사용한다. 이 방법은 길고 예측할 수 없는 지연시간으로 인하여 대화형 자바 임베디드 시스템에서는 부적당하다. 본 논문에서는 평균 지연시간을 줄이고 대화형 환경을 지원하는 가비지 콜렉션 알고리즘을 제안한다. 가비지 콜렉터는 객체의 크기에 따라 할당 위치를 결정하는 할당기와 점진적 마크-회수 알고리즘을 사용하는 콜렉터로 구성된다. 가비지 콜렉터는 스레드 스케줄링 정책에 따라 주기적으로 호출되며, 할당기는 콜렉션 주기 동안 마크된 상태의 객체를 할당한다. 또한 콜렉션 주기의 마지막에 비트 패턴의 의미를 교환하는 칼라토글방식을 사용한다. 제안한 가비지 콜렉터와 스탑더월드 마크-회수 가비지 콜렉터의 성능을 비교하였으며, 이 비교 실험을 통해 평균 지연시간은 감소하고, 균일하고 낮은 응답시간을 제공함을 확인하였다.
