The purpose of this study is to analyse both actual conditions and health problems of farmers in using peshcrde and to develop protective methods. This study research was carried out by means of questionnaires with members of 100 families randomly selected from 279 families residing within the managing territory of primary health post. The results are as follows: Based on 10 kinds of safety instructions, it was shown that 76% complied with more than 6 isntractrons, and less than 4 instructions were 24%, of which 25% carefully read their handling instructions, 58% did sometimes, and 17% never read such instructions. Not complying with those safety instructions, the most frequent experience was physical symptoms, of which headache accounted for 80.9%, dizziness for 73.5%, dermatitis for 64.7%, and vomiting for 41.2%. Their experiences of pesticide poisoning indicated 68.0%, of which the aged level accounted for 88.9% which was relatively high. A spraying time of peshcide was less than 2 hours accounted for 64.0%, and more than 2 hours for 36%. It was also shown that the number of farmers, who experienced poisoning after spraying such chemicals, accounted for 77.8%. The hate of poisoning experiences were 92.0% in group not wearing a protective equipment, were 62.5% in group wearing a complete set of protective equipment.

This study is a qualitative study to disclose the meaning and reality of violence experiences of the mental health nurses by the phenomenological approach. This study is done with the participation of 9 community mental health nurses who have work experiences more than 3 years in the city of S, from Nov 7, 2014 till Dec 21, 2014. The result of the study revealed that the violence experiences of this study participants may be categorized into 4 categories, 'a small boat running into a storm', 'open sea', 'a small boat lost of the sign post', 'a captain controlling the rudder' and may be identified with 11 theme cluster and 32 theme.Therefore violence from patients who have experienced mental health nurse could be found to affect even the identity of the mental health nurse as well as threaten safety of professionals. This may threaten the quality of service provided to the patient, so we have to accept reality as a serious problem. Also it has been preceded by what the support program development of the nursing organization for the nurse who is violence victims with preparing for violence Prevention. As the result we suggest that you prepare a practical measures for the safety and quality nursing services performed by mental health nurses.

In modern society, citizen's expectation about policing levels have been rising over time and it limited resources of the police to deal with the security services are insufficient. Until now, the state monopoly of the police activity was changing to subject of a variety in cooperation with public security system. The citizens considers community not the destination to police enforce the law but space for effective policing partners. Japanese police focus on cooperation oriented policing to strengthen the police and local residents with crime prevention for a long time. Also, the community through a variety of problem-solving policing activities to identify problems such as anxiety and anguish of the people. The legal basis for cooperative policing activity is that Nagaoka city crime prevention regulation in 1979. In recent years, Tokyo local government legislated the safe town development regulations(東京都安全 安心まちづくり條例) and set up the hot-spot area to promote the safety of public facilities. Cooperative policing not police intervention for crime prevention but national policy for the city reclamation in Japan. Police as well as the Ministry of Land and Transport, Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Education, Prime Minister and all government departments thread safe city, crime prevention, and has been working to make the safe city. Japan's cooperative policing is a system that receives the most attention and greater implications.

This study was conducted to investigate the influence of natural degrading polymer film covering in rice paddies on the benthic macroinvertebrate community structure in Dangsu-dong, Suwon, Gyeonggi-do from May 2009 to September 2009. We compared 5 treatments: golden apple snail farming (GF), natural degrading polymer film + organic farming (NOF), natural degrading polymer film + chemical farming (NCF), conventional farming (CF), and no fertilization (NF) as the control. The total number of species was highest in NOF followed by GF, NF, NCF, and CF. The total number of individuals was highest in NOF followed by NCF, CF, NF, and GF. The Dominance index (DI) ranged from 0.43 to 0.95. The highest dominance index was in GF followed by NCF, NF=CF, and NOF. The species diversity index (H') for each experimental plot ranged from 0.49 to 2.93. The average species diversity index was highest in NOF followed by NF, GF, CF, and NCF. After the natural degrading polymer film covered the paddies, the benthic macroinvertebrates tended to recover, but leeches and aquatic beetles increased. Mollusca and Annelida, which are sensitive taxa, decreased in both species and individual numbers after the soil was covered with the natural degrading polymer film. The number of species tended to recover. However, the number of individuals continued to decrease.d, especially individuals. Since then, the number of species tended to recover. However, the number of individuals decreased.

Zooplankton community structure and copepod production in Seomjin River estuary were investigated at 10 stations along the salinity gradients from May 2009 to February 2010. Total zooplankton taxa were identified to be 31 in the study area and seasonal average abundance of zooplankton was $4,151\;ind.{\cdot}m^{-3}$ during the study period. Zooplankton community was mainly composed of coastal species in dry season. However, brackish species dominated in upper or middle part of this estuary in flood season. This study showed that the growth rates of Acartia spp. and Paracalanus parvus s.l. measured from field experiments were regulated by the variations of Hater temperature and salinity; The annual copepod production estimated by dominant copepod species was $3.49\;g\;C{\cdot}m^{-2}yr^{-1}$, and the relatively high production value could be explained by the high phytoplankton standing stocks and the mass occurrence of coastal and brackish species with relation to various salinity gradients in Seomjin River estuary.

The long-term water-quality change of Asan Bay by the influx of polluted disposal water was predicted through a simulation with an Eco-hydrodynamic model. Eco-hydrodynamic model is composed of a multi-level hydrodynamic model to simulate the water flow and an ecosystem model to simulate water quality. The water quality simulation revealed that the COD(Chemical Oxygen Demand), dissolved inorganic nitrogen(DIN) and dissolved inorganic phosphorus(DIP) are increased at 5 stations for the subsequent 6 months after the influx of the effluent. COD, DIN and DIP showed gradual decreases in concentration during the period of one to two years after the increase of last 6 months and reached steady state for next three to ten years. Concentration levels of COD, DIN, and DIP showed the increase by the ranges of $11{\sim}67%$, $10{\sim}67%$, and $0.5{\sim}7%$, respectively, which represents that the COD and DIN are the most prevalent pollutants among substances in the effluent through the sewage treatment plant. The current water quality of Asan Bay based on the observed COD, TN and TP concentrations ranks into the class II of the Korean standards for marine water quality but the water quality would deteriorate into class III in case that the disposal water by the sewage plant is discharged into the Bay.

The market for green vegetable juice (GVJ) is growing owing to the increasing demand for healthy food; however data on the safety and quality of GVJ are poorly reported. The objective of this study was to investigate the change in microbial community in GVJ during storage and its contamination by E. coli O157:H7. The microbial community was analyzed via culturable and non-culturable methods at 5, 10, and $25^{\circ}C$ for different storage times. In the non-culturable method, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) was used. The initial bacterial concentration was $2.92{\times}10^5CFU/mL$, which exceeded the limit prescribed by the Korean Food Hygiene law. The results of the DGGE analysis indicated that the microbial community during storage was diverse and the spoilage lactic acid bacteria were prevalent at a later stage. Other bacteria such as Rahnella, Citrobacter, Pseudomonas, and Cyanobacteria were identified. Thus, the results strongly emphasize the need to pay attention to GVJ production safety, especially with respect to temperature control, in order to prevent the growth of foodborne pathogens such as E. coli O157:H7 and other spoilage bacteria.

In this study, the benthic environmental and microbial community structure were investigated by mixing granulated coal ash(GCA) and contaminated estuary sediments. Estuary sediments and GCA were mixed in a ratio of 8:2 and allowed to interact for 1 month, then sediment environmental factors were investigated. The pH of the experimental sediment was mixed increased to 11. The concentration of DIP(Dissolved inorganic phosphorus) in the experimental case decreased by 30 % compared to the control case, and this should be due to formation of calcium phosphate through the chemical reaction of DIP and calcium which diluted from GCA. The high abundance of Gammaproteobacteria seen in the experimental sediment compare to the control can af ect the DIP reduction. The DIN(Dissolved inorganic nitrogen) concentration increased over two times in the experimental case than the control, and this should be due to the high pH condition and release of NH₄⁺-N from the GCA. Microorganisms related to nitrogen circulation were not identified in both the control and experimental cases. It was confirmed that the GCA were effective in reducing the DIP concentration in contaminated estuary sediment, and that benthic microbial communities were shown to influenced the phosphorus circulation.
