  • It is widely assumed that climate change and other anthropogenically driven processes are having a serious impact on coastal environments. One such impact is saltwater intrusion into coastal aquifers, which has resulted in the loss of groundwater resources. The pattern of saltwater intrusion is strongly dependent on regional hydrogeological characteristics. This study reviews recent qualitative and quantitative research into this problem, and considers relevant case studies. In addition, the characteristics of the aquifers from two representative volcanic islands (Jeju Island, Korea and Oahu Island, USA) are compared. The fundamental theory of density-dependent flow used to model saltwater intrusion processes and the programs that are widely used to simulate saltwater intrusion based on density-driven problems are also investigated. It is expected that the knowledge gained from this review of previous studies can be used to help improve groundwater management practices in Korea and also to inform future interdisciplinary studies.

  • At once Medicine of East and West have the same purpose in treating, but there is a difference between the method of medical care and the view/slant on a disease each other. In the East Medicine, It is very difficult to explain the concept of Hwalhyulhwau but it is one of the way to cure cancer for long time. Be based on the theory of the East Medicine, research single medicine's anti-cancer effect among the natural products that has anti-cancer function. Moreover, for the purpose of finding new way to cure and prevent against cancer, we, the researchers, divided into four groups for this research: Group one: survey new substance with anti-cancer effects from natural products. Group two: research of anti-cancer mechanism through the experimental studies. Group three: research of immune responses in anti-canncer effects from natural products. Group four: research of the inhibitory effect on metastasis through the anti-angiogenesis. From the above results, we blended efficacious medidcines against cancer and made new prescriptions of Soam-I and Soam-II. Now, we are studying on these new prescriptions. We speculate that Soam-I and Soam-II may be used for a new conceptional anticancer therapy.

  • The surface hydrology of large watershed is susceptible to several preferred stable states with transitions between stable states induced by stochastic fluctuations. This comes about due to the close coupling of land surface and atmospheric interaction. An interesting and important issue is the duration of residence in each mode. In this study, mean transition tunes between the stable modes are analyzed for the Han River Basin. On the basis of historical data, the nonlinear water balance model is calibrated for the Han River Basin. The transition times between the stable modes in the model are studied based on the stochastic representation of the physical processes and on the calibrated model parameters. This study has implications for prediction of the transition time between stable modes or residence times, that is, the time the system spends in a given stable modes, since this would be equivalent to predicting the duration of drought or wet conditions.

  • Coordinated multiple points transmission and reception (CoMP) technology is used to mitigate the inter-cell interference, and increase cell average user normalized throughput and cell edge user normalized throughput. There are two kinds of radio resource schedule strategies in LTE-A/5G CoMP system, and they are called centralized scheduling strategy and distributed scheduling strategy. The regional centralized scheduling cannot solve interference of inter-region, and the distributed scheduling leads to worse efficiency in the utilize of resources. In this paper, a novel distributed scheduling scheme named 9-Cell alternate authorization (9-CAA) is proposed. In our scheme, time-domain resources are divided orthogonally by coloring theory for inter-region cooperation in 9-Cell scenario [6]. Then, we provide a formula based on 0-1 integer programming to get chromatic number in 9-CAA. Moreover, a feasible optimal chromatic number search algorithm named CNS-9CAA is proposed. In addition, this scheme is expanded to 3-Cell scenario, and name it 3-Cell alternate authorization (3-CAA). At last, simulation results indicate that 9/3-CAA scheme exceed All CU CoMP, 9/3C CU CoMP and DLC resource scheduling scheme in cell average user normalized throughput. Especially, compared with the non-CoMP scheme as a benchmark, the 9-CAA and 3-CAA have improved the edge user normalized throughput by 17.2% and 13.0% respectively.

  • Based on social capital theory, this study intends to understand accessed and mobilized social capital of married women with young children and the difference between two types of social capital in terms of their employment status. Factors related to accessed and mobilized social capital are also investigated. The subjects are 571 married women (284 employed and 287 unemployed) who have children younger than 5 years old. Their networks are revealed to show different composition and resource distribution according to the respective employment status. No significant difference is found in accessing social capital depending on the employment status. However, working women are capable of mobilizing more social capital for economic resources and child-care assistance than non-working women. The employment status is significant only in mobilizing social capital related to child-caring assistance. The effects of variables related to social networks of married women differ according to the types of resources sought for. The choices of married women on the employment status and child-rearing are observed in the findings of the ability to mobilize social capital for child-care assistance. The importance of kin ties and various social services for building social capital are discussed.

  • In this study, a various rainfall-runoff modelling approaches have been applied to the runoff response of flood hydrograph in three experimental watershed of the western part of korea. Mathematical models of runoff response also have been studied including linear system theory based on modeling techniques. Eight models were operated at the five water level gauging stations and the parameters of each model were computed by the Rosenbrock's hill climbing method to minimize the objective function. For the parameter verification of the models, a different complex rainfall-runoff event was selected in the same of the three river basins and derived IUH of the each model could be calibrated. Furthermore multiple regressions of the logarithmic transformation method between model parameters and catchment characteristics were studied in the selected five station.

  • The feature of this paper is (1) to analyze the characteristics of rainfall-runoff relationship with kinematic wave theory, (2) to study the computational model to estimate the sediment yield, (3) to analyze the effects of bed change by transport formulas and the number of watershed division, and (4) to verify the model application with observation of channel data and measurement of rainfall, runoff, sediment discharge in Pyung-Chang River Basin. The calculated time of concentration of peak discharge occured little earlier than the actual, but the tendency of hydrograph coincided with observation. The shape of sediment hydrographs was similar to the water hydrograph. Based on above results, the applicability of the model was verified in detail. As the number of watershed division increased, the difference between the measured runoff and sediment values and the estimated ones decreased. The result of calculation with Yalin's formula for surface and Acker-White's one for channel gave the best agreement with the measured data among the six selected sediment transport foumulas.

  • Linking Ukraine's education system with the trends of global digitalization is mandatory to ensure the sustainable, long-term development of the country, as well as to increase the sustainability of the education system and the economy as a whole during the crisis period. Now the main problems of the education system in Ukraine are manifested in a complex context caused by Russian armed aggression. In the context of war, problems include differences in adaptation to online learning among educational institutions, limited access to education for vulnerable groups in the zone of active hostilities, the lack of digital educational resources suitable for online learning, and the lack of basic digital skills and competencies among students and teachers necessary to properly conduct online classes. Some of the problems of online learning were solved in the pandemic, but in the context of war Ukrainian society needs a new vision of education and continuous efforts of all social structures in the public and private environment. In the context of war, concerted action is needed to keep education on track and restore it in active zones, adapting to the needs of a dynamic society and an increasingly digitized economy. Among the urgent needs of the education system are a change in the teaching-learning paradigm, which is based on content presentation, memorization, and reproduction, and the adoption of a new, hybrid educational model that will encourage the development of necessary skills and abilities for students and learners in a digitized society and enable citizens close to war zones to learn.

  • A multidimensional representation for precipitation, given In the theory proposed by E. Waymire et al. (1984), is used for simulating rainfall in space and time. The model produces moving storms with realistic meso-scale meteorological features in time and space. The first- and second-order statistics derived from observed JX)int gauge data were used to estimate the model parameters based on the Nelder-Mead algorithm of optimization. Then twelve-year traces of rainfall intensities at fixed gage stations were generated at intervals of 1 hours. First- and second-order statistics are evaluated from the above series, which are used for estimating the parameters of one dimensional model of temporal rainfall at a point. As a result from the comparisons of one dimensional model parameters used observed and generated data from multidimensional model, we found that the multidimensional rainfall model generated visually realistic spatial patterns of rainfall as well as realistic temporal hyetographs of rainfall at a point. point.

  • 상수도 관망의 운영 단계에서 비정상상황의 발생은 필연적으로 발생하며, 비정상상황 발생 시상수도 관망 내 설치된 제수 밸브의 차폐를 통해 해당 구역의 격리 후 복구를 진행한다. 일반적으로 제수밸브를 통해 격리될 수 있는 최소 구역은 세그먼트로 정의하고, 제수밸브 설치 시 세그먼트의 격리로 인한 상수도 관망의 피해를 줄일 수 있도록 위치를 선정한다. 제수 밸브를 통한 격리 시 상수도 관망의 흐름 경로와 유향, 유속의 변화와 같은 수리적 특성 변화가 불가피하다. 지난 '19년도에 발생했던 3건의 수질 사고가 수리적 특성 변화에서 기인했던 것을 고려할 때, 제수밸브 차폐로 상수도 관망의 부분 격리 시 발생 가능한 수리적 특성 변화에서도 수질 사고가 야기될 가능성이 있다. 기존 제수밸브 위치를 결정한 연구들을 보면, 대부분 제수밸브 위치에 따라 결정된 세그먼트의 격리 시 수압 저감을 고려하여, 격리 시에도 상수도 관망의 성능을 최대한 유지할 수 있도록 결정하는 것이 일반적이다. 다만, 앞서 언급한 것과 같이 격리 시 발생 가능한 수리적 특성 변화로, 수압 저감 외에도 예기치 못한 수질 사고의 발생 원인이 되기도 한다. 이에 따라 제수밸브의 최적위치를 결정할 때 수리적 특성 변화를 고려해야 예지치 못한 2차 피해를 줄일 수 있을 것이다. 이에 본 연구는 그래프이론을 활용하여 격리 전후 관로의 유향 변화를 최소화하도록 제수밸브 최적 위치 결정하는 방법론을 제안한다. 그래프이론은 망의 형태를 가지는 상수도 관망의 연결성을 정량화할 수 있으며, 본 연구에서는 수리학적 거리 인자를 적용하여 격리 시에도 각 수요절점이 최소 경로를 확보할 수 있도록 유도하였다. 해당 방법론은 가상 관망에 적용하여 수리학적 거리 인자에 따른 설계와 기존 상수도 관망 성능 극대화 설계 안을 비교하였다. 또한 수질 사고 위험도 인자를 정의하여 해당 인자에 따른 각 설계 안의 효과를 분석하였다. 본 연구는 향후 수질 사고를 고려한 밸브 시스템의 설계 및 운영에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
