  • Few attempts have been made to discover the ecological function of coarse woody debris (CWD) despite its importance to small mammal population. Twenty-five pitfall traps and a hundred live traps were placed in three sites with high amounts of CWD and three sites with low amounts of CWD. Eleven species were caught, and Peromyscus maniculatus was the most abundant (45.6%, n=605). Among 11 speices, abundance of Tamias townsendii and Clethronomys gapperi were higher in sites with high amounts of CWD than in sites with low amounts of CWD. Home range size was larger in breeding season than in non-breeding season indicating mating search. Resident time of Peromyscus maniculatus was longer in sites with high amounts of CWD implying better stability in population. The increasing amount of coarse woody debris (CWD) enhanced the habitat use by small mammals, and animals in high amounts of CWD were more abundant and stable in population fluctuation. This study, therefore, concludes that CWD is a critical habitat element for small mammals in forest ecosystem.

  • Seabirds have adapted to life in marine environments. More than 25% of the bird species observed in South Korea are seabirds, using the coast area of Korean peninsula as a stop-over and wintering, and breeding site. The aims of this review are to provide information about migratory and resident Korean seabirds and to discuss the methods that are currently employed to monitor the marine environment. In Korea, it has been reported that more than 400,000 individuals of seabirds breed on Nando Islet, Chilbaldo Islet, Guguldo Islet, Sasudo Islet, Hongdo Islet and Dokdo Islet. In 2010, approximately 160,000 seabirds also visited South Korea during the winter. Two of the main treats were introduced wildlife and habitat destruction by humans. Seabirds are monitored mainly at the population and individual levels. The assessment of population sizes and biomagnifications of pollutants are performed preferably at the community and population levels. Behaviour, growth, morphological characteristics, and breeding success is analyzed at the individual level and employed to gauge the health of the marine environment. In addition, we could suggest that molecular technique of seabirds successfully adopted to investigate the effects of pollutants and toxins in the marine environment.

  • Recently, the decrease of the number of a high-school graduate influences the number of limit matriculation. Based on the resident registration population, we forecast for the number of a high-school graduate until 2022 year in Daegu city. Most college and universities in Daegu city have to reduce the 37.5% of the number of limit matriculation until 2022 year to avert a disaster by prompt action.

  • Recently, as increasing population of internet, the larger one of required facts is solution for access speed, that transmission performance. ADSL system can provide the best application to resident in low cost, flexible approach. In this paper, for DMT line code that is one of ADSL modulation/demodulation signal processing methods, transmission performance and characteristic are discussed as studies and analysis through computer simulation using MATLAB. We made results with practising simulation using parameters based on ANSI standard Tl .413 Iusse2.

  • Recently, the decrease of the number of the third graders in a high-school have serious influences on the number of a limit matriculation of colleges and universities. The purpose of this paper is to forecast for the number of a high-school graduate until 2022 year in Daegu city as based on the resident registration population. As the based period of 2004, most college and universities in Daegu city have to reduce the 37.5% of the number of limit matriculation until 2022 year to equal the number of the third graders in a high-school.

  • Recently, the decrease of the number of a high-school graduate have serious influences on the number of a limit matriculation of colleges and universities. Based on the resident registration population, we forecast for the number of a high-school graduate until 2022 year in kyungbook. Most college and universities in Kyungbook have to reduce the 67.8% of the number of limit matriculation until 2022 year to avert a disaster by prompt action.

  • Recent cities have been extended by the urban population's growth. But, despite the extension of the residence in the edge of metropolitan, the urban sprawl has appeared because of insufficiency of infra structure. Therefore this study implemented the survey of the resident consciousness, on the base of it, aimes to provide the data for developments.

  • In this study, we presented a method for estimating the potential population damage of the Seoul Nowon-gu area in the event of a terrorist using a vehicle improvised explosive devices (IED). Using the object-based building extraction method with orthophoto image, the area of the apartment has been determined, and the apartment's height and level were estimated based on the elevation data. Using the population estimation method based on total floor area of building, each apartment resident population was estimated, and then potential population damage at the time of terrorist attacks was estimated around the subway station through a scenario analysis. Terrorism damage using IED depends on the type of vehicle greatly because of the amount loadable explosives. Therefore, potential population damage was calculated based on the type of vehicle. In the results, the maximum potential damage population during terrorist attacks has been estimated to occur around Madeul station, Nowon-gu. The method used in this study can be used various population estimation research and disaster damage estimation.

  • The distributions of fluorescent whitening agents (FWA) in the water of the Yasu River and their tributaries flowing into Lake Biwa (Japan) were surveyed on winter and summer. The FWA fluxes had linear correlation with the corrected resident population in catchments of the tributaries of Yasu River. Therefore, the FWAs in the rivers come from domestic wastewater, and those fluxes in the tributaries depended on the human population of their catchments. As an application of the FWA indicating domestic wastewater, we could assess seasonal changes in the sources of dissolved organic matter in the tributaries.
