In remote islands, due to expense of existing generation systems, installation of photovoltaic cells (PVs) and wind turbines has a chance of reducing generation costs. However, in island power systems, even short-term power fluctuations change the frequency of grids because of their small inertia constant. In order to compensate power fluctuations, the authors proposed the power consumption control of pumps which send water to tanks. The power control doesn’t affect water users’ convenience as long as tanks hold water. Based on experimental characteristics of a pump system, this paper shows methods to determine reference power consumption of the system with compensation for short-term PV fluctuations while satisfying water demand. One method uses a PI controller and the other method calculates reference power consumption from water flow reference. Simulations with a PV and a pump system are carried out to find optimum parameters and to compare the methods. Results show that both PI control method and water flow calculation method are useful for satisfying the water demand constraint. The water demand constraint has a little impact to suppression of the short-term power fluctuation in this condition.

A total of six specimens (57.03-100.72 mm in standard length) belonging to the family Diodontidae were collected around Jeju Island, Korea between July and August 2013. On the Basis of morphological and molecular analyses, we identified the specimens as Cyclichthys orbicularis (Bloch, 1785), a new record to the Korean fish fauna. Morphologically, the species is characterized by nine caudal fin rays, immovable spines on the head and body except the caudal peduncle, and small black spots dorsally. Some morphometric characters changed disproportionately with growth, which was a new finding. Caudal peduncle length, body width and preanus length to standard length tend to grow at a rate different from that of overall growth. When the 601 base pairs of mitochondrial DNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit I sequences of our specimens were compared with those of other diodontid fishes, our specimens clustered tightly around C. orbicularis (d = 0.000-0.002) in an NJ tree, with a high bootstrap value (99%). We herein describe the morphological and molecular traits of the specimens, and propose a new Korean name, "gud-ga-si-bok-sok" for the genus Cyclichthys, and "dung-geun-gud-ga-si-bok" for C. orbicularis.

Income inequality is a problem that is not only faced by developing countries such as Indonesia, but also developed countries. The difference lies in the proportion of an inequality that occurs and the solution to the level of difficulty experienced. Thus, this study aims to empirically analyze the unequal distribution of population income in Java island, Indonesia, by including the human development index, open unemployment rate, foreign investment, and the degree of fiscal decentralization. The research model used in this study was multiple linear regression to analyze the panel data with a fixed-effect model approach. The results of the study showed that human development index, open unemployment rate, and the degree of fiscal decentralization had a positive and significant effect on income inequality in Java island. Meanwhile, foreign investment had a negative and insignificant effect on income inequality in Java. It is because the value of the investment is more invested in the capital-intensive sector. The government is expected to be more selective in accepting foreign investments that enter the country, especially in Java, and it should be labor-intensive investments. In addition, the government has to equalize locations for foreign investment without reducing good cooperation with these foreign investors.

The age and growth of rabbit fish, Siganus fuscescens were investigated from samples monthly collected in the coast of Jeju island, Korea from February to December 2012. Ages were determined from annuli in otoliths, and annuli were formed in one or two months immediately after spawning once a year. Also, main spawning period was estimated between July and August, thus rings were considered as annual marks. The von Bertalanffy growth equations estimated from a non-linear regression method were $L_t=37.24(1-e^{-0.33(t+1.24)})$ ($R^2=0.92$) for female and $L_t=31.44(1-e^{-0.45(t+1.23)})$ ($R^2=0.90$) for male, and the growth between female and male was different.

Taean county region has been economically lagged behind compared with other areas in Chungnam Province mainly due to disadvantages of the location such as traffic accessibility, social infrastructure and industrial complex. However, recently Taean region has been emerged as newly prospective area because west coastal highway will be constructed to connect Seoul urban area to famous beach sites, recreational facilities along the seaside of Taean county, where International Flower Exhibition will also be held in Anmyon Island for the year of 2002. This Paper aims to explore how International Flower Exhibition is contributing to the development of local economy of Taean County area and to suggest the strategies for the development of this area through promoting spread effects of these international events. It is estimated that although there will be loss of 32,987 thousands won during the period of international flower festival based on the cash flow analysis, long run profits would be 108 trillion won, when calculating indirect benefits derived from the sight seeing, flower sales and other incomes from various activities. In order to maximize post benefits of international flower event, it is suggested that Taean county should pursue the strategies for specializing in cultural events such as family recreational events, beach festival and traditional cultural events, improving the social infrastructure and promoting the local industry such as flower, tourism and advanced technological enterprises.

우도 내에 분포하는 여러 지질명소에 대해 자연유산적 학술적 가치를 조사하여, 이들의 보전가치와 세계자연유산으로서의 자격을 평가하였다. 우도는 작은 제주도라고 불릴 만큼 제주도 섬 내에 나타나는 다양한 지질유산적 특징을 가진다. 우도 내에는 우도를 형성한 수성화산체인 소머리오름과 소머리오름이 만들어지면서 형성된 여러 화산지형이 분포한다. 이들은 수성화산 분출에 의해 형성된 응회구와 그 위에 흐른 용암, 그리고 용암 내에 발달되어 있는 용암동굴과 화산 분화 후 재동되어 퇴적된 화산쇄설물이다. 플라이스토세에 이르러 수십 차례에 걸쳐 빙하기와 간빙기가 교호하면서 우도는 섬과 육지환경이 계속적으로 반복해 왔다. 마지막 최대 빙하기 이후에 해수면이 현재와 같이 상승한 약 6000년 전부터 우도 주변의 천해환경에서는 많은 탄산염 퇴적물이 형성되기 시작하였다. 특히 우도와 제주도 사이에 존재하는 수심이 20m 이내의 넓은 천해환경은 홍조단괴가 만들어지는 최적의 환경을 제공하였으며, 현재에도 많은 홍조단괴가 자라고 있다. 이렇게 만들어진 홍조단괴는 태풍에 의해 지속적으로 해안가로 운반되어 홍조단괴로만 이루어져 세계 유일이라고 판단되는 해빈퇴적물을 형성하였다. 하지만 이 해빈퇴적물은 전통적으로 학계에 알려진 해빈퇴적물과는 그 성인적 측면에서 구별된다. 전형적인 해빈퇴적물로는 탄산염 퇴적물로만 이루어진 하얀 모래의 하고수동 해빈, 화산쇄설물이 침식되어 퇴적된 검은 모래의 검멀레 해빈, 그리고 주변의 현무암이 침식되어 커다란 자갈로만 이루어진 톨칸이 해빈이 나타난다. 과거 바람에 의해 탄산염 해빈퇴적물이 육지로 운반되어 형성된 사구층이 나타나며, 우도의 북쪽 해안가 세배곶 지역에는 전형적인 해빈의 형성과 태풍의 영향으로 퇴적된 복합적인 성인을 가진 퇴적물도 나타난다. 화산쇄설물로 이루어진 퇴적층을 따라 발달한 해안 절벽에는 파도의 침식에 의해 형성된 해식동굴이 여러 개 발견된다. 특히 수심 10m 부근에 나타나는 수중 해식동굴은 해수면의 변화를 반영하는 뛰어난 지형으로 평가된다. 이러한 우도의 다양한 지질유산은 우도가 매우 뛰어난 지질다양성을 보여주는 장소임을 지시한다. 전 세계에서 우도의 홍조단괴 해빈과 같이 거의 모든 퇴적물이 홍조단괴로만 이루어진 지역은 매우 드물며, 수중폭발에 의해 형성된 소머리오름은 제주도 내에 나타나는 다른 수성화산체인 성산일출봉, 수월봉, 송악산, 용머리 등과 함께 세계자연유산으로 등재될 자격이 있는 것으로 판단된다. 현재 홍조단괴 해빈은 국가지정 천연기념물로 지정되어 있으나 그 지정 지역 밖에도 더 넓은 지역에 홍조단괴가 형성되고 있으므로 보전지역의 확장이 필요하다. 또한 소머리오름도 그 지질유산적 가치의 보전을 위해 천연기념물로 지정할 필요가 있다.

To investigate the distribution and migrations of sea turtles occurring in Korean waters, an adult female green sea turtle Chelonia mydas was tagged with a satellite transmitter and released at Busan in October 2009. The confirmation was made for the first time that the released green sea turtle migrated back to Korea after visiting Jeju Island and Japan for approximately 9 months. The green sea turtle spent the winter in Jeju and Japan because of low water temperatures in the East Sea and South Sea during winter months, which were not suitable for turtle survival. Compared with an immature green sea turtle that was released at Jeju Island, the adult green showed a markedly different migration pattern, suggesting that juvenile and adult greens move differently because of their peculiar life cycle and their stage of maturity, in addition to responses to temperature changes. Additional satellite tracking with increased representation of species, sexes and sizes of turtles, and regions is required to gather information on the distribution and movements of sea turtles in Korean waters.
