  • It can be said that the revegetation technology in Japan was started in 1960's when Japan entered into the era of high-growth economy. In the beginning, the revegetation technology was mainly applied on the man made slopes, and with the time, the fields of the revegetation technology have been extended to the urban landscaping, ecosystem conservation, prevention of desertification and so on. With the progress of the revegetation technology and the expansion of its fields, new problems have occurred. In this paper, I introduced the history of The Japanese Society of Revegetation Technology and the present condition, and discussed about the problems of the revegetation technology in Japan.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 1990년대 이후 미국, 영국, 호주 및 캐나다 등 영어권 주요국가의 대학도서관들이 인식하고 있는 고등교육의 환경변화와 그에 따른 문제점들을 살펴보는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 각기 상이한 국가제도와 문화적 전통, 고등교육체제 및 정보환경 하에 있기 때문에 생겨나는 고유한 문제점들보다는 여러 나라의 대학도서관 전반에 나타나는 공통적인 문제점들을 규명하는 데 초점을 맞추었다. 각국의 대학도서관들이 공통적으로 지적하는 문제들은 예산의 축소 도서관 역할의 변화, 도서관 콜렉션 속성의 변화, 정보기술의 발전과 기술 기반구조의 요구, 연속간행물 가격의 급등과 도서관 구매력 감소 등이다. 이 문제들은 서로 고립된 개별적 문제들이 아니라, 매우 긴밀하게 상호 연관되어 있어, 개별 도서관의 대응책보다는 국가 혹은 정부의 보다 거시적이며 광범한 차원의 이해와 전략적 대책을 요구함을 알 수 있다.

  • Environmental education, which has been thought as the most fundamental solution to environmental problems, should be performed not only in school but also in home and society with a long-term plan. In line with this, environmental-friendly attitude in daily life should be achieved by the perception of the vital environmental principle-new understanding of relation between nature and human being. It is in the city park that children in urban area, who has little opportunity to contact nature, have rather easier access to nature and realize the principle. Despite such great potential, the city park in Korea has not played its pivotal role because of lack of both facilities and activities. In addition, existing studies on this issue are not satisfactory. Therefore, this study is aimed at analyzing and evaluating city parks' environmental education function, potential and problems according to their types, then offering practical reform measures and programs in order to make students better understand the parks as an everyday natural experience spot. These plans are not based on full-scale revision, instead focuses on optimizing potential of existing natural environment and parks. Additionally, activities to experience various nature are included in the study. The value of city park is not decided by the park itself, but by its relationship with visitors. Environmental education function of city park is not confined to building up facilities and providing programs. It also should be complemented and improved, reflecting visitors' opinions and evaluation of environmental education.

  • The world has faced with various environmental problems such as climatic change, global pollution, and depletion of natural resources. Conventional economic development continues not only to intensify the magnitude of the problems but also to damage growth potential of future generations. Therefore, recent manufacturers are highly required to accommodate themselves to sustainable development that aims at preventing the loss to the future generations. Moreover, the manufacturers are under heavy pressure from various environmental regulations. This paper proposes green bill of material (Green-BOM) which conforms to the environmental regulations to restructure eco-friendly manufacturing system. Green-BOM is useful for managing green product and process information to satisfy several environmental regulations by recording energy consumption, recycle rate, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), substance information, and so on.

  • Reliable response measurements are extremely important for proper bridge health monitoring but incomplete and unreliable data may be acquired due to sensor problems and environmental effects. In the case of a sensor malfunction, parts of the measured data can be missing so that the structural health condition cannot be monitored reliably. This means that the dynamic characteristics of natural frequencies can change as if the structure is damaged due to environmental effects, such as temperature variations. To overcome these problems, this paper proposes a systematic procedure of data analysis to recover missing data and eliminate the environmental effects from the measured data. It also proposes a health index calculated statistically using revised data to evaluate the health condition of a bridge. The proposed method was examined using numerically simulated data with a truss structure and then applied to a set of field data measured from a cable-stayed bridge.

  • To estimate the annual WTP for risk reduction of environmental problems such as outdoor and indoor air pollution, and drinking water contamination, a questionnaire survey was conducted by dichotomous contingent valuation method in Seoul. Several covariate models based on Turnbull, Weibull and Spike models were developed and applied to WTP estimation with uncertainty analysis. WTP estimates for risk reduction of air pollution were 13,000 won, 12,000 won, and 10,000 won per month in low-bounded Turnbull, Weibull and Spike models, respectively. The estimates for indoor air pollution were 17,000 won,20,000 won and 21,000 won and these for drinking water contamination were 10,000 won, 13,000 won and 14,000 won in each model, respectively. Goodness of fit for Weibull model was better than those for other models. WTP estimates for indoor air pollution were higher than those for other pollution problems.
