The purpose of this paper is to provide directional and policy references to develop a higher level of service quality and consumer-oriented e-commerce platform. This paper has established a model of consumer behavior of Chinese fresh agricultural e-commerce using customer satisfaction theory and cognitive value theory, and used survey and SPS23.0 to verify hypothesis. Studies have shown that when consumers consume fresh agricultural products, product quality, logistics and distribution service quality, interactive quality of e-commerce platform, and product price and cognitive value have a positive effect on consumer behavior. This study is meaningful in the study of consumer behavior of fresh agricultural e-commerce, and in the case of fresh agricultural e-commerce companies, consumer behavior can be understood. In the model constructed in this paper, the relationship between each influencing factor and consumer behavior is considered comprehensively, but the possible relationship between fine molecular factors has not been studied and analyzed. In the future learning process, it is necessary to make clear the characteristics and particularity of the industry, think about its influencing factors comprehensively and make in-depth analysis.

Recently, the incidence of flooding in Korea has decreased by the measures by central and local governments, however the scale of damage is increasing due to the improvement of living standard. One of the causes of such flood damage is natural causes such as rainfall exceeding the planned frequency of flood control under climate change. In addition, there are artificial causes such as encroachment of river spaces and management problems in upstream basins without consideration of downstream damage potential by regional development flood. In this study, in order to reduce the inundation damage caused by flooding of river, the situation at the time of inundation damage was reproduced by the detailed topographic data and 2D numerical model. Therefore, the effect of preparing various disaster prevention measures for the lowland was simulated in advance so that quantitative evaluation could be achieved. The target area is Taehwa river basin, where flooding was caused by the flooding of river waters caused by typhoon Chaba in October 2016. As a result of rainfall-discharge and two-dimensional analysis, the simulation results agree with the observed in terms of flood depth, flood arrival time and flooded area. This study examined the applicability of hydraulic analysis on river using two-dimensional inundation model, by applying detailed topographic data and it is expected to contribute to establish of disaster prevention measures.

Domestic urban railway underground station structures, which were built in the 1970s ad 1980s, had been constructed as Cut-and-Cover construction system without seismic design. Because the trends of earthquake occurrence is constantly increasing all over the world as well as the Korean Peninsula, massive human casualties and severe properties and structures damage might be occurred in an non-retrofitted underground station during an earthquake above a certain scale. Therefore, to evaluate the retrofit effect and soil-structure interaction of seismic retrofitted underground station, a centrifugal shaking table test with enhanced stiffness on its structural main member are carried out on 1/60 scaled model using the Kobe and Northridge earthquakes. The seismic retrofitted members, which are columns, side walls, and slabs, are evaluated to comparing with existing non-retrofitted centrifuge test results Also, to simulate the scaled ground using variation of shear velocity according to site conditions such as ground depth and density, resonant column test is performed. From the test results, the relative displacement behavior between ground and structures shows comparatively similar in ground, but is increased on ground surface. The seismic retrofit effects were measured using relative displacements and moment behavior of column and side walls rather than slabs. Additionally, earthquake wave can be used to main design factor due to large structural deformation on Kobe earthquake wave than Norhridge earthquake wave.

Interest and demand in heavy cargo logistics is increasing and becoming more diverse as economic scales have expanded and manufacturing activity has increased. Although cargo moves via maritime and/or land transportation, there is currently insufficient research on the actual condition of heavy cargo logistics. The purpose of this study is to carry out an in-depth analysis of heavy cargo laws, systems, logistics patterns, and current transportation status. By proposing measures to solve existing problems, this study aims to make an important and ongoing contribution to the scarcely studied field of heavy cargo logistics. The result of regression analysis on the main seven factors show that transportation frequency and law/system structure have a positive effect on working conditions. Furthermore, the result of correlation analysis on the main seven factors show that the cargo weight variable is highly positively correlated with cargo size. Also, the working conditions variable is highly positively correlated with the law/system structure. Detailed proposal measures to solve existing problems are summarized as follows. First, it is necessary to establish a clear concept of heavy cargo as numerous existing definitions differ. Second, laws and provisions relating to maritime and land transportation of heavy cargo need to be established and consolidated as current applicable legislation is insufficient. Third, the classification system for heavy cargo transportation needs improvement. Fourth, it is necessary to improve transportation performance statistics and the aggregate criteria system. Finally, the management system of heavy cargo also needs improvement.

The purpose of this study was to propose a product planning and design direction for smart fitness wear that will improve the impact of personal training based on researching the requirements of smart fitness wear and its acceptance level, as well as the functional demand. The study conducted in-depth interviews with professional fitness trainers and derived five categories and thirteen keywords by analyzing the categorical data analysis using the interview data. In addition, we surveyed general consumers to measure the acceptance level of smart fitness wear and the functional demand for product development. The results revealed that the difference in the acceptance level of smart fitness wear generally depended on the characteristics related to exercise involvement and exercise-related culture rather than on the demographic characteristics. With regard to the difference in the functional demand of smart fitness wear, the results showed that professional trainers focused on the scientific improvement of the effect of exercise while general consumers focused on the function that considers the sustainability of exercise. Based on the results, we proposed product planning and design directions such as 'mounting of heart rate sensing, muscle activity sensing, motion angle or posture sensing, and motion sensing', 'development of concepts and contents for expert line, ordinary line', 'compression wear design', and 'differentiation of product development according to exercise areas'.

The goal of this study was to identify the water temperature and sound environment of oviposition sites of the Huanren brown frog (Rana huanrensis), which breeds in valleys in early spring. The study was conducted in Chiak National Park, central Korea, between March 23 and April 24, 2015. Correlation analysis of the physical factors of oviposition sites revealed that the number of egg clutches was positively correlated (p < 0.05) with the water temperature and negatively correlated (p < 0.05) with the sound volume of the oviposition sites. However, no correlation was found between clutch number and the total area or depth of water. The water temperature of the oviposition sites was $2.2^{\circ}C$ higher on average than that of the mainstream (p < 0.001). To avoid the low early spring temperatures, R. huanrensis spawned in sites with accumulated water, in which the depths were less than 10cm and the temperature was relatively high. Further, eggs were spawned in clusters in small spaces to maximize the thermal insulation effect. In terms of noise levels, oviposition sites were found to be 6.9 dB quieter than the mainstream (p<0.001). In conclusion, R. huanrensis was found to spawn in warm, quiet, and small oviposition sites in valleys to avoid low early spring temperatures and loud water noise. This study is significant because it is the first to characterize the sound environment of amphibian oviposition sites.

Since vegetation significantly influences on soil carbon and nutrient storage, vegetation change has been focused on terrestrial carbon and nutrient cycling studies. In this study we investigated soil carbon and major nutrient capitals at the abandoned fields, which had different vegetation composition: a three year abandoned field ($AGR_3$), two ten years abandoned fields ($PD_{10}$ dominant with Pinus densiflora and Fraxinus rhynchophylla and $PM_{10}$ dominant with Populus maximowiczii), and an over sixty years forest ($FOR_{60}$). which were located at Hongcheon-gun, Kangwon-do, South Korea. Both main effects for organic matter (%) were significant: shallow soil > deep soil and $FOR_{60}=PM_{10}$ > $AGR_3=PD_{10}$. Nitrogen concentrations at $PM_{10}$ were the highest, while the lowest at $PD_{10}$. Available phosphorus concentrations were the highest at $PD_{10}$, which were over 10 times of site $FOR_{60}$ and $AGR_3$ at 0-10 cm soil depth. The average organic matter ($173Mg\;ha^{-1}$) and nitrogen contents ($10Mg\;ha^{-1}$) of $PM_{10}$ and $FOR_{60}$ were higher than those of $AGR_3$ and $PD_{10}$ by 57% and 42%, respectively. The available phosphorus contents above 30 cm mineral soil at $PD_{10}$ ($3.8Mg\;ha^{-1}$) and $PM_{10}$ ($1.3Mg\;ha^{-1}$) were over 120 times and 40 times more than at $FOR_{60}$. Calcium ($3.7Mg\;ha^{-1}$) and magnesium contents ($2.8Mg\;ha^{-1}$) at $FOR_{60}$ were twice or three times higher than at other sites. Organic matter amounts in 0-10 cm and 10-30 em soil had significant positive relationships with nitrogen, calcium, and magnesium contents, but not available phosphorus and potassium contents. This study could not identify the effect of chronological factor and vegetation composition on soil carbon and nutrient capital owing to diverse topography as well as limited study sites. However, this study suggests the accuracy of investigation for regional carbon and nutrient sequestration can be achieved by considering the period of abandoned time on the fields and the land use types. These results may suggest the benefits of forest restoration for soil carbon and nutrient accumulation in marginal agricultural lands in South Korea.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of rhizosphere bacterium and pathogenic fungi on the growth of corn(Zea may L.) in continuous corn cultivation soil(CCCS) and non-continuous cultivation soil(NCCS). Corn was established by seeding into pots of 30 cm in diameter and 50 cm in depth containing 1 : 1 mixture of soil and vermiculite. Rhizobacterium and pathogenic fungi were inoculated into the soils. The field experiment was carried out at the Animal Research Station, College of Agriculture, Chonnam National University. Sample of corn was taken from each pot at 50 days and 90 days after sowing. Corn was cultivated in a vinyl house with three replications under natural daylight conditions. The bacterium used in this study was Bacillus subtilis. B. subtilis was directly isolated and identified from forage rhizosphere soil. Dry matter(DM) of coron plant in treatment without B. subtilis was lower than that in treatment of B. subtilis. DM of corn plant inoculated with B. subtilis was higher than that of corn inoculated with pathogenic fungi in both CCCS and NCCS. DM of corn plant in NCCS was more increased than that in CCCS. The effect of B. subtilis inoculation on the growth of corn was better in NCCS than in CCCS. However, DM of corn plant was apparently decreased by the inoculation of the pathogenic fungi in both CCCS and NCCS.

This experimemt was conducted to determine the effect of ridge-up bed with different height (0, 20, 40, 60 cm) on the fruit quality of 'Miyagawa Wase' satsuma mandarin cultivated in a plastic film house. Soil moisture was measured at the soil depths of 10, 30, and 60 cm for each height of ridge-up bed. The time required to reach the condition, -1.4 Mpa at 30 cm deep in soils, which are supposed to be the ideal soil moisture potential and soil depth for high quality satsuma mandarin production, was 100, 60, and 30 days for 20, 40, and 60 cm ridge-up bed, respectively, and more than 100 days for 0 cm. Peel chromaticity by 'a' value was increased as the ridge-up height went up, so that plants grown at the bed with 60 cm height had 11 degree higher value than those of plants grown at the bed with 0 cm height. The 'a/b' values also had a similiar trend as value 'a'. The reducing sugar level of the fruit juice, which was composed of glucose and fructose, was increased as the height of ridge went up, showing significant difference between the ridge heights. The sucrose level had the same trend as the reducing sugar level although the difference between the ridge heights were not significant. Generally, the soluble solid level is considered to be representing the fruit quality. It had 11.4, 12.1, 12.5, $12.8^{\circ}Brix$ for 0, 20, 40, and 60 cm ridge-ups, respectively, showing $1.4^{\circ}Brix$ difference between 0 and 60 cm ridges. Acidity basically showed the same result as that of the soluble solid level depending on the height of the ridges.
