This study was conducted to clarify the preference and habitat condition of small mammals at the Hyeongsan river in Ulsan, Gyeongju, and Pohang from January 2003 to July 2003. In the study sites, total 111 individuals of Apodemus agrarius, Rattus norvegicus, and Micromys minutus were captured in study sites. The most abundant species were Apodemus agrarius, 79.2 percent, among the captured small mammals. Density of habitation was significantly higher in agricultural land than in either private house or woods. However, they were more abundant in paddy Weld area than in agricultural land. A number of captured small mammals were higher in herbaceous rather than three other vegetation types. Existent of river embankment and its type were important factors affecting the spatial distribution of the individuals. Preference of small mammals were significantly lower in revetment block area rather than in none or nature-stone mat area. There was significantly correlationship between the depth of water and the number of captured small mammals. A number of captured small mammals were clearly increased in reference to decreasing depth of water in study site, in conclusion, the following factors such as the vegetation structure, depth of water, types of land use and types of river dike could be affected the spatial distribution of small mammals in the study sites.

A survey on the availability of wild vegetables was investigated using questionaire of 421 women. It includes the number of known vegetables and using, eating site, using status, taste and estimated components. The well known vegetables were 24 kinds and the half of the respondents knew 16 kind of vegetables. Age was statistically correlated with knowing degree, obtaining method of wild vegetables. Education level was correlated with knowing and using degree, obtaining method, preference and expectation of using wild vegetables. Resident area also correlated with using degree, obtaining method, preference and taste of wild vegetables. The age and using degree, preference and preference and expectation, the resident area and knowing degree of wild vegetables were not correlated.

We monitored 38 hibernation sites of Myotis formosus in South Korea and recorded the number of bats occupying each site and assessed the micro-climate at the sites during four winters from 2005 to 2009 at. The mean rock temperature of the bat roosting sites was $13.2{\pm}1.4^{\circ}C$ and the mean body temperature of the hibernating bats was $13.3{\pm}1.3^{\circ}C$. The number of hibernating bats was negatively related to the size of the entrance and positively related to the minimum ambient temperature and humidity in the site interior. More bats hibernated in roosts with smaller entrances and higher minimum ambient temperatures, and more bats selected sites presenting a narrow temperature range. This study showed that the internal environments of hibernacula of M. formosus were highly stable despite dramatic variation in the external environment.

The location of villages differs by position, and the method to form the conditions of location varies greatly. This study has comprehensively investigated village layout in the riverside and directional relations in houses. With changes in riverside landscape and transition to an agriculture-oriented village, there have been changes in road and the size, shape and direction of houses as well. In terms of the direction of houses situated along the river, a house facing the river accounts for more than half of all houses in the village. As traditional houses are transformed into modern houses over time, houses have become bigger, and the number of the houses facing south or southeast has been on the rise. As described above, riverside landscape and preference for the house facing south have an effect on determination of the facing direction of houses. However, the direction of geographical features of the village was first followed, and other conditions have been reflected, and the characteristics for the facing direction of houses have been observed.

Considering the present development situation of public rental apartment since 1982, the supply of homeless housing for low-income dwellers has contributed a amount of quantities, but has been deficient qualities in housing policy. To reflect the architect the properties of dwellers in rental apartment, this study is aimed at investigating the residential character and the consciousness of housing movement through questionaries in permanent rental apartment and fifty years period rental apartment complexes. The results of this study were as follows; The permanent rental apartment is dissatisfied with site location, site shape and building layout in housing environment view, the fifty years period rental apartment is dissatisfied with building area, rental bond, rental fee and maintenance cost in economics view. Housing type of movement preference hereafter is showed “rental apartment” as priority. Therefore, it is necessary to construct public rental apartment for low-income dwellers increasingly.

Within residential high-rise market there are many value determining factors. Site condition, view, program, units and structure are important parameters that are directly related to the financial aspect of the project. However, most of the studies of high-rise building design focus on the facade and the shape strategies from an esthetic point of view without considering these factors. The objective of this study is to investigate new design approach that incorporates site, program and structural information at an early stage as a generator of building form and explore a wide range of strategies to negotiate these factors in the process of design/decision making. Not being based on designer's subjective preference or style, architects still can create interesting building design through integration and negotiation of various building information. Since this form is based on real data, not just play of form, we can expect that this form has great potential to be developed into real one at the later design phase.

The crystallographic properties and cation distribution of oxyspinels ferrite $Co_xFe_{1-x}O_4$ thin films have been explored by X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and conversion electron $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy (CEMS). Thin films are prepared by sol-gel method. Normal spinel structure is transformed to inverse spinel structure with increasing Co concentration CEMS results indicate that most of $Fe^{3+}$ ions are substituted to $Co^{3+}$ions. Accordingly $Co^{2+}$ ions on octahedral site migrate to tetrahedral site. Magnetic moment is decreased with increasing Co concentration, which means high spin $Fe^{3+}$ ions are replaced by low spin $Co^{3+}$.

Site-directed substitutions were made to change the Ile91 of restriction endonuclease EcoRV to either Val, Ala or Gly to identify the role of Ile91 in recognition and catalysis, since substitution of Ile91 with Leu afforded dramatic effects on the activity and properties of restriction endonuclease EcoRV. These changes alter the size of the hydrophobic side chain at position 91 and thus might have revealed the reason for the altered phenotype of Ile91Leu. However, the properties of Ile91Val and Ile91Ala mutants were much like wild type EcoRV, in both activity and metal ion preference. Ile91Gly had very little activity with either $Mg^{2+}$ or $Mn^{2+}$ as cofactors. To try to understand the unusual $Mn^{2+}$ profile of the Ile91Leu mutant, two double mutants, Ile91Leu;Asp90Asn and Ile91Leu;Glu45Met were created. Both double mutants were seriously disabled by the second amino acid change. Ile91Leu;Glu45Met had some residual activity in the $Mn^{2+}$ reaction buffer, whereas the Ile91Leu;Asp90Asn displayed no detectable activity.
