Many policies, such as transit-oriented development, encouraged use of bicycle and pedestrian, reduction of green house gas (GHG) and etc., have been deployed to support transport sustainability. Although various studies regarding GHG were presented, no one has yet adequately explained the behavior of travelers. This paper proposes a GHG emission model by highlighting its sensitivity, elasticity with regard to such travel cost as travel time, travel fare, and GHG pricing, introduced to reduce the amount of GHG in transportation system. For better estimation of GHG, the proposed model adopts (1) a production-constrained gravity model and (2) the travel distance from the origin and the destination (OD). The gravity model has a merit that it considers travel pattern between OD pairs. The model was tested with an example, and the promising results confirmed its validation and applications.

Water quality of seawater samples from ten stations was measured and analyzed to study the causes and the characteristics of the yellowish-green-colored zone in the Nakdong Estuary in February, May, August and October, 1984. The color of the yellowish-green-colored zone was equivalent to the grade 7 according to the Forel water-color meter and was observable throughout the year. The characteristics of the zone were low in transparency and high in the concentration of suspended solids, and about 52% of the suspended solids consisted of volatile substances. The chlorophyll a contents ranged from 0.4mg/$m^3$ to 51.0mg/$m^3$ and dissolved oxygen was in a state of supersaturation within the yellowish-green-colored zone. Nutrient concentrations were higher within the colored zone than the outside. Positive correlation was observed between tne concentrations of nutrients and chlorophyll a. Our results showed that the signficant portion of suspended solids sampled from the yellowish-green-colored zone consisted of phytoplanktons of which bloom was possibly induced by inflow of the nutrient-rich Nakdong River water.

The purpose of this research related to the development of natural preservatives, in which licorice and spices (clove, fennel fruit and Chungyang green pepper) were extracted with distilled water, and the extracts were tested for their antibacterial and antioxidative activities. The polyphenol contents of the water extracts from licorice, clove, fennel fruit and Chungyang green pepper were 17.4, 21.4, 6.6, and 0.9 mg/g, respectively. The water extracts from licorice and clove demonstrated antibacterial activity against S. aureus. The electron donating abilities (EDA) of the water extracts from the licorice and other spices ranged from 60 to 88% at 1,000 ppm; the highest value was for the licorice followed by fennel fruit, clove, and green pepper. The xanthine oxidase inhibition ratio (XOD) of the extracts ranged from 28 to 50% at 1,000 ppm, where the highest value occured in the cloves, followed by fennel fruit, green pepper, and licorice. The superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity ranged from 33 to 53% at 1,000 ppm, and the highest value was for the licorice followed by cloves, fennel fruit, and green pepper. The nitrite scavenging abilities (NSA) at 1,000 ppm of the clove and fennel fruit water extracts were 95% and 65% at pH 1.2, respectively. The NSAs of the extracts were highest at pH 1.2, and decreased with increasing pH. Considering all the obtained results, we have concluded that licorice and spice extracts can be used as natural preservatives in the development of health foods.

Drought stress is a major constraint of crop development and productivity. Plants have evolutionally developed several mechanisms at the molecular, cellular, and physiological levels to overcome drought stress. The basic Leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor (TF) family members are starting to be concerned about their roles in drought stress responses. In this study, we functionally characterized OsbZIP66, a rice group-E bZIP TF, to be associated with rice drought tolerance mechanisms. Expression of OsbZIP66 was significantly induced upon treatments of rice plants with drought, high salinity, and ABA. These observations and the fact that the OsbZIP66 promoter contains ten ABA-responsive elements suggest that OsbZIP66 is up-regulated by drought stress in an ABA-dependent manner. Overexpression of both OsbZIP66 in a whole plant body and specifically in roots enhanced drought tolerance of rice plants, indicating that the rice drought tolerance positively correlates with the expression levels of OsbZIP66. Thus, our results demonstrated that OsbZIP66 has a potential for use in biotechnological development of high-yielding rice plants under drought conditions.

Decoys for automatic jigging machines, the body part of a squid hook, have been developed in small and existing sizes in consideration of squid food, color blindness, and retinomotor responses and in utilization of pearl pigment, PP of high transparency, and combined mixture. In comparison of the developed silver-white decoy and existing decoys, the optical characteristics were examined, and the fishing performance of small size silver-white squid hooks was assessed in application of 4 fishing boats with the squid automatic jigging machine and metal halide fishing lamp in July, 2012. The luminances of the three squid hook colors-green, dark green and silver-white-increased as the intensity of illumination increased. Among these, the increase of silver-white was particularly distinguished. As to the average contrast of squid hooks, that of silver-white was 10.33, which was the highest, and then green 1.86 and dark green -0.10 in the order. As to the fishing performance of the silver-white hook, that of the 202 Geumyeong-ho and 101Yongjin-ho which caught squids were similar to that of the existing green hook and was relatively low in the case of the Dongbu-ho. However, that of the Haengbok-ho which caught relatively small squids whose average length was 19.9cm and installed silver-white hook in all automatic jigging machines was significantly excellent. In order to enhance the fishing performance of small size silver-white hooks, therefore, it would be effective to install in every automatic jigging machines of fishing boat and to start fishing before July by which small squids are caught.

During the process of synthesizing green celsian pigments, attempts were made to replace a given amount of $BaCO_3$ with $SrCO_3$ to accelerate the hexagonal to monoclinic celsian phase transition, which was assumed to promote color development. Monoclinic celsian have been synthesized from Hongkong-Kaolin, $BaCO_3$, $SrCO_3$, $Al(OH)_3$, $SiO_2$ and $SrCO_3$ with 1 to 1.5 wt% of LiF as a mineralizer from 1100 to $1300^{\circ}C$. It was found that replacing $BaCO_3$ with $SrCO_3$ allowed monoclinic celsian to be formed at a lower temperature. While the pigments containing 1 mole of $BaCO_3$ were difficult to synthesize monoclinic celsian with absence of the mineralizer, the formation of monoclinic celsian was successfully achieved even without mineralizer by using 0.25 mole of $SrCO_3$ at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The color development was improved from yellowish green to green with increasing amount of $SrCO_3$ being replaced.

This paper is a study on the development of an artificial intelligence model that recognizes a hole cup on a golf green. A CNN-based object detection algorithm was used to recognize the hole cup on the green. Also, Apple's CreateML was used to create a model of the object detection algorithm. This paper created a JSON file with 120 training images and annotations to meet the needs of CreateML. In addition, for more accurate learning, data amplification algorithm was used for learning data and 288 learning data were used for learning. By changing the Iterations, Batch size, and Grid size required by CreateML, we found parameter values that improve the performance of the model. A prototype app was developed by applying the developed model, and performance was measured on an actual golf course green using the prototype app. As a result of the measurement, it was found that the hole cup was accurately recognized within 10m, which is the typical golfer's putting distance.

This study attempts to specifically analyze green volume and scenery characteristics by classifying the streets in Seoul and suggest improvements accordingly. The subject streets for research were limited to those that have high occupancy ratio and are wide enough to have a big potential in improving green volume. In terms of green volume and scenery according to the types of streets, Platanus occidentalis and Ginkgo biloba were most common regardless of the street type, and the green ratio was 51.6% in residential areas, 50.4% in commercial areas, and 43.7% in business areas. Apart from the residential area, there was almost no green areas, and the ratio of green coverage was 71.0% in business areas, 64.0% in green areas, 37.3% in residential areas, and 36.2% in commercial areas, while the green volume coefficient was $1.9m^3/m^2$ on average. Based on the study results, it was set as a goal to provide the residential areas with a green community space and flowering trees throughout the year for scenery, and commercial areas with flowering trees and maples to emphasize the stores' image while not interfering with service and walking. For business areas, the goals were to improve green ratio and create streets that suit the urban image, and to set up spaces to provide habitat for wild animals with multi-layer planting and link to surrounding forests.
