  • Biological mechanisms for ionizing radiation effects are different at low doses than at high doses. Radiation hormesis involves low-dose-induced protection and high-dose-induced harm. The protective component is associated with a reduction in the incidence of cancer below the spontaneous frequency, brought about by activation of defensive and repair processes. The Linear No-Threshold (LNT) hypothesis advocated by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) and the Biological Effects of ionizing Radiation (BEIR) Report VII for cancer risk estimations Ignores hormesis and the presence of a threshold. Cancer incidences significantly less than expected have been found in a large number of epidemiological studies including, airline flight personnel, inhabitants of high radiation backgrounds, shipyard workers, nuclear site workers in scores of locations throughout the world, nuclear power utility workers, plutonium workers, military nuclear test site Participants, Japanese A-bomb survivors, residents contaminated by major nuclear accidents, residents of Taiwan living in $^{60}Co$ contaminated buildings, fluoroscopy and mammography patients, radium dial painters, and those exposed to indoor radon. Significantly increased cancer was not found at doses <200 $mSv^*$. Evidence for radiation hormesis was seen in both sexes for acute or chronic exposures, low or high LET radiations, external whole- or partial body exposures, and for internal radionuclides. The ubiquitous nature of the Healthy Worker Effect (HWE)-like responses in cellular, animal and epidemiological studies negates the HWE as an explanation for radiation hormesis. The LNT hypothesis is wrong and does not represent the true nature of the dose-response relationship, since low doses or dose-rates commonly result in thresholds and reduce cancer incidences below the spontaneous rate. Radiation protection organizations should seriously consider the cost and health implications of radiation hormesis.

  • Through the analyses of the distribution characteristics and management practices of the wildlife protection areas, this study intends to present basic data for improving the management of protected areas. 1) Based on the aggregate results of the protected areas, the average ratio of the metro-city and provincial areas to the designated protected areas was 1.49%; except for Chungcheongbuk-do (8.83%) and Gyeongsangnam-do (3.43%), most regions showed specified percentages of about 1%, whereby the analysis suggested that the designated protected areas were too small. 2) Considering the fact that most (86.16%) of the wildlife protection areas are in the regions that are of ecological nature level of grade 1, green nature level of grade 8 or better, and of legal conservation regions and districts, it was shown that these reserves are distributed in regions with excellent natural environmental conditions. 3) Designation of protected areas for the protection of wildlife and fish is deemed to be necessary. Although there are 588 wildlife & plant reserves, there are absolutely no designated areas for protecting plant and fish species. 4) Based on the results of an analysis of the current distribution by types, 92.47% of protected areas were concentrated in the mountains, 0.24% in the agricultural lands, and 7.29% distributed in the lakes/rivers/costal areas. 5) As major improvement projects, proposed were: advancement of management systems for protected areas, expanded designation of protected areas, overhaul of managed areas, designation of protected areas for the protection of wild plants and fish, need for management measures for private property and the surrounding areas, need to secure appropriate management personnel and collaboration, locally-adapted management, eco-information-based management, total management of protected areas, etc.

  • The beauty of Korean architecture is in its natural beauty. Traditional residence of Korea is architecture that expresses modesty that is embraces the nature. Hanok is designed based on understanding of the nature and responding to it. For this reason, Hanok is a nature-friendly residential space. There are many unique traits of Hanok and one of them is that it is built based on scientific principles. Hanok, without using modern technology and machines, utilizes effectively the natural environment and the climate, e.g., the sun and the wind. Hanok, based on Korea's geographical condition and climate characteristics, have produced a variety of residential houses. The principle of Hanok is not to challenge the nature but embrace and accept it. Furthermore, in Hanok is embedded Korea's traditional philosophy and ideas and it is not simply a simple residential space but also a place for meditation and spiritual training. As the time passes, there are more researches are being done to enhance health in addition to traditional role of protection and convenience. Accordingly, more efforts are being made to bring the nature into human life. Hanok, the traditional residential form of Korea, has environment-friendly architecture and characteristics that could promote human health and enhance our life. Therefore, the nature-oriented philosophy and environmental elements of Hanok should be more systematically studied to take advantage of its architectural advantages and create healthier modern residential culture.

  • 우리나라의 주요한 법정(法定) 자연보호지역(自然保護地域)은 자연공원(自然公園), 천연보호구역(天然保護區域), 자연생태계보전구역(自然生態系保全區域), 생물권보전지역(生物圈保全地域), 천연보호림(天然保護林), 조수보호구(鳥獸保護區) 등으로 전산림면적(全山林面積)의 약 18%(1,124,000ha)에 이르고 있다. 이중 비교적 접근이 용이한 국립공원(國立公園)의 경우 연간 방문자 수가 33,000,000명에 달해 자연환경훼손이 심각한 상태에 이르고 있다. 특히 피해가 심한 등산로와 야영장의 보호를 위하여 공원내의 취사금지(炊事禁止)와 자연휴식년제(自然休息年制)를 도입, 운용하게 되었다. 취사금지가 공원내 고형쓰레기의 대부분인 취사찌꺼기 근절을 위한 것인 반면, 자연휴식년제는 피해지역의 자연생태적인 회복을 도모하기 위한 것이다. 후자(後者)의 도입에 따라 전국 27개산 47개등산로의 이용이 1991년 1월부터 3년간 금지된다. 자연휴식년제의 운용은 현재의 심각한 피해상태에 비추어 적절한 정책으로 평가될 수 있으나 지정지역(指定地域)의 선정(選定), 폐쇄기간(閉鎖期間) 및 방법(方法) 등의 결정을 뒷받침할 과학적 조사연구자료에 기인하지 않은 의사결정의 결과라는 데에 문제가 존재한다. 본 논문은 국내의 기존 관련 연구결과를 종합하여 정책운용에 따르는 문제점과 이의 대안을 제시한다.

  • In this paper we proposed backward fuzzy Petri-net to diagnoses faults in power systems by using the time sequence information of protection system. As the complexity of power systems increases, especially in the case of multiple faults or incorrect operation of protective devices, fault diagnosis requires new and systematic methods to the reasoning process, which improves both its accuracy and its efficiency. The fuzzy Petri-net models of protection system are composed of the operating process of protective devices and the fault diagnosis process. Fault diagnosis model, which makes use of the nature of fuzzy Petri-net, is developed to overcome the drawbacks of methods that depend on operator knowledge. The proposed method can reduce processing time and increase accuracy when compared with the traditional methods. And also this method covers online processing of real-time data from SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition)

  • The rapid development of the fashion industry in contemporary society has also caused various problems such as environmental pollution, material excess, and spiritual poverty. Accordingly, traditional Chinese Taoist aesthetics can solve the spiritual poverty that people are facing today, and the spiritual pursuit of returning to innocence. This study focuses on the works of first generation Chinese designer Ma Ke as an example to discuss the embodiment and application of Taoist aesthetics. The results are as follows: First, Ma Ke's works emphasize the value of handicraft through traditional handcrafting and natural fibers, which reflect the beauty of simplicity and the non-action of Taoist aesthetics. Second, the works acknowledge nature by using natural materials and retaining their original appearance, which embodies Taoist aesthetics of the beauty in non-action and living in harmony with nature. Third, the collections reflect a critical attitude toward the fashion industry and consumer culture by rethinking consumerism and advocating environmental protection, thus propagating the beauty in simplicity and the harmonious life with nature in Taoism aesthetics. In conclusion, Ma Ke's designs incorporating sustainability and handicraft exhibit the core features of Taoist aesthetics, including the beauty in simplicity, non-action, and living in harmony with nature while exploring the relationship between modernity and tradition, man and nature, and handicraft and fashion. This research can contribute to understanding Ma Ke's works in promoting critical thinking about the fashion industry through Taoist aesthetics.

  • 북한의 정권 수립 초기인 1970년대 초까지는 자연환경과 관련된 직접적인 법제가 마련되지 못하였고, 1977년 토지법 제정을 통해 토지보호, 보호구역, 산림조성 및 보호 등 자연환경 보호에 관한 법적 근거를 마련하였다. 북한 환경법제의 발전 단계는 환경보호법 제정(1986년)과 함께 그 근간을 갖추었으며, 1990년대에 들어서 헌법 개정(1992년)을 통해 "국가의 책무로서 자연환경의 보존·조성"을 규정하였고, 그 이후 "환경보호법"을 기본법으로 다양한 분야의 하위법령을 제정하여 분법화한 것으로 나타났다. 보호지역의 경우 초기에는 위원회 결정 등으로 보호지역을 지정·관리하다가, "환경보호법"을 통해 다양한 법정 보호지역 지정 근거를 마련한 후 "명승지·천연기념물보호법(1995)", "자연보호구법(2009)" 등으로 관련법들이 세분화된 것을 알 수 있다. 자연보호구의 유형으로는 생물권보호구, 원시림보호구, 동물보호구, 식물보호구, 명승지보호구 등이 있다. 국제적으로 알려진 북한의 보호지역은 생물다양성협약 "제2차 국가생물다양성전략 및 행동계획(2007년)"에서 326개소가 있는 것으로 기술하였으나, 2018년 보호지역 UN-list에는 31개소만 등록되어 있어 북한의 보호지역 기초정보 구축 노력이 필요한 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구 결과는 북한의 자연 보전체계의 이해를 돕기 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 현재 대북제재(UN 안보리, 미국) 상황 속에서 멸종위기생물 보호와 환경오염회복 등 환경보호활동 등이 제재 예외 대상인 것을 감안한다면 자연환경 분야에서 실현 가능한 남북협력 사업 발굴에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.
