The purpose of this study is to critically examine conventional spatial measures of individual accessibility, which are based on the notion of spatial proximity, the single reference location, and the unlinked travel model. Using space-time accessibility measures with the travel-activity diary data set of Portland Metro, US, three expectations from spatial measures on spatial patterns of individual accessibility were empirically examined: (1) does individual accessibility decrease with an increase of distance from the CBD?; (2) does the spatial pattern of accessibility resemble that of urban opportunity density pattern?; and (3) are spatial patterns of individual accessibility of different socio- demographic population groups basically similar as people in the same area share the same geographic characteristics regardless of gender, race, age, and so on? First of all, the results showed that spatial variations in individual accessibility were not directly determined by spatial proximity and opportunity density as suggested by previous accessibility measures. The spatial pattern of individual accessibility was dramatically different from that of urban opportunity density High peaks of accessibility level were found far away from the CBD and regional centers. This finding might be associated with the importance of multi-reference locations and linked travels in shaping accessibility in reality. Furthermore, this study found that spatial patterns of accessibility clearly differ between men and women. These findings suggest that access requires more than proximity, and that the interaction between person-specific space-time constraints and the consequential availability of urban opportunities in space-time renders different accessibility experiences to people even in the same region, which would be one of the key ingredients missing from conventional spatial measures of accessibility.

유역 내 발생하는 강우의 공간적인 분포는 인접성 및 거리에 따라 달라질 수 있다. 공간자기상관 분석은 공간단위(유역 또는 행정구역)의 변수(강수 등)가 주변지역과 갖는 관계를 통해 얼마나 분산되어 있는지 혹은 군집되어 있는지를 판별하는 기법으로 최근 많은 연구에서 활성화 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강유역을 대상으로 1980~2000년까지 20개년의 기상청을 통해 수집한 강우자료와 CMIP5(Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5)에서 제공하는 기후변화 자료 중 가용할 수 있는 20개 모델의 강우를 수집하였다. 기후변화 자료는 정상성 분위사상법으로 지역오차보정을 실시하고 불확실성을 저감하고자 베이지안 모델 평균기법을 통해 새로운 시계열을 생성하였다. 생성된 시계열의 공간적인 분포를 정량적으로 평가하고자 중권역별 공간자기상관 분석을 수행하였다. 대부분의 연구에서는 GIS를 활용하여 정성적으로 강우의 분포를 나타내고 있지만 본 연구에서는 공간단위의 인접성 또는 거리에 따른 척도를 기반으로 공간자기상관을 탐색할 수 있는 Moran's I와 LISA(Local Indicators of Spatial Association)기법을 적용하였다. Moran's I는 전체 연구지역에 대한 관계를 하나의 값으로 보여주는 전역적인 기법이며, LISA는 상대적으로 넓은 지역을 국지적으로 구분하여 특정지역에 대한 Hot spot 및 Cold spot을 통해 공간자기상관 정도를 나타내는 국지적인 기법이다. 두 기법을 적용하기 위하여 인접성 기반의 공간매트릭스를 산정하고 계절별 관측값과 베이지안 앙상블 강우의 Moran's I 및 LISA 분석을 실시하였다. 관측자료와 베이지안 앙상블 강우의 분석결과가 매우 유사하게 나타남으로써 베이지안 앙상블 강우의 공간적인 분포가 관측강우를 충분히 재현하고 있다고 판단된다.

This study attempts to figure out the impact of Information and communication technologies (ICTs) on spatial structure and to speculate on spatial strategies in the electronic economy from a geographical perspective. The unprecedented development of ICTs based on the explosive use of the Internet was enough to lead to the expectation that physical distance would not be a significant barrier in business activities. In fact, however, at least at a current stage, the development of ICTs has not automatically removed the inequality in spatial structure. The accessibility to electronic space is different by economic and social status within a country as well as between countries. The importance of place, locality, and place-specific assets has been strengthened in the global economy. Physical proximity is still of great importance because it helps to minimize transaction costs, to exploit place-specific social networks, and to accumulate credibility for successful businesses. Likewise, the development of electronic commerce such as B2B and B2C EC also does not necessarily result in the ignorance of place and locality. Rather, the recognition of the importance of spatial strategies is extremely important for the success in online businesses. As a conclusion, the spatial dimension becomes more important in the digital era for successful businesses and balanced regional developments than ever before. The need for the improvement of ICT infrastructures, the development of human resources, and the establishment of regional innovation systems in peripheral areas cannot be overemphasized even in the digital era.

This study is primarily to investigate the alienation process that constitutes the regional identity of the border region in Kyunggi Province. It both discusses the concept of social exclusion and its application for a theoretical framework and examines patterns and formation of the alienation process based on the field survey. The empirical results show that the alienation process which defines the border region as a geography of place poverty and exclusion has been deepened through economic, social, cultural and spatial processes. In terms of material well-being and social participation, especially, the alienation is shown to form in every aspect of people's lives in the border region. The alienation gives rise to the cultural stigmatization which first builds up negative images of the region and then aggravates region's development potential as well as its future prospect. In addition, the alienation in the context of the border region turns out to be unique compared to major characteristics of other backward regions as well as quite spatially differentiated across the border region in Kyunggi Province.

This paper examines a spatial pattern and processes of academic achievement in deprived area, considering relationship between academic achievement and social deprivation as social context. It links academic achievement data with neighborhood data from the 2001 UK Census(by ward) in South East England and uses multiple regression modeling to estimate the contribution of social deprivation to academic achievement of primary schools. The findings suggest that there is a significant positive relationship between deprivation in the local residential environment and academic achievement in primary schools. It also argues that more deprived area in South East England would tend to promote greater inequality of academic achievement in the spatial aspects, relating to Key Stage 2 score.

As to medium data which is involved in the form of streaming for a multimedia application, it characterizes that spatial locality occurs strongly but temporal locality appears even weaker. In this paper, with regard to dynamic prefetching, we suggest a method to make the most of memory reference regularities which typically innate by nature in the multimedia data with strong spatial locality but with weak temporal locality. Especially, the suggested method has a remarkable capability such that it can reduce prefetching errors substantially compared to existing prefetching methods for an application Program which divides an way into small sub-blocks and, plus executes in the unit of sub-block. We carried out experiments to test the suggested method using various MediaBench benchmarks. From the results, we have confirmed that the occurrences of prefetching error decrease effectively than those of existing linear prefetching methods.

Risk factors that threaten public safety such as crime, fire, and traffic accidents have spatial characteristics. Since each region has different dangerous environments, it is necessary to analyze the spatial pattern of risk factors for each sector such as traffic accident, fire, crime, and living safety. The purpose of this study is to analyze the spatial distribution pattern of local safety level index, which act as an index that rates the safety level of each sector (traffic accident, fire, crime, living safety, suicide, and infectious disease) for basic local governments across the nation. The following analysis tools were used to analyze the spatial autocorrelation of local safety level index : Global Moran's I, Local Moran's I, and Getis-Ord's G⁎i. The result of the analysis shows that the distribution of safety level on traffic accidents, fire, and suicide tends to be more clustered spatially compared to the safety level on crime, living safety, and infectious disease. As a result of analyzing significant spatial correlations between different regions, it was found that the Seoul metropolitan areas are relatively safe compared to other cities based on the integrated index of local safety. In addition, hot spot analysis using statistical values from Getis-Ord's G⁎i derived three hot spots(Samchuck, Cheongsong-gun, and Gimje) in which safety-vulnerable areas are clustered and 15 cold spots which are clusters of areas with high safety levels. These research findings can be used as basic data when the government is making policies to improve the safety level by identifying the spatial distribution and the spatial pattern in areas with vulnerable safety levels.

In principal, the original form of Eupchi landscape in Naepo reflects a traditional idea regarding direction as a connection with one's fortune and naturalization strategy of power. In reality, the weight for the landscape inside the castle town was distinct by locality according to the conditions of natural geographies and main function of the castle town. In other words, the traditional Eupchi landscape was shaped under the fixed principles but it was simultaneously reflecting the local temporality and spatiality. As Chosun Dynasty went under the Japanese colonization, Eupchi in the traditional period started to evolve into a modem city. That is to say, the traditional Eupchi as a political place became to change into the center of capital accumulation, stronghold of economy and education, and center of town beyond the function as a place for government and administration. Therefore, the process of change from the landscape of Eupchi to a modem city was a kind of revolution in the form and function, and it was also a very rapid rearrangement of social space. The disparate element of landscape and double social space worked as a vital inertial element in the urban structure of Naepo area until the post independence and evolution of landscape.

토양수분은 물 순환의 필수적인 요소로써 수문순환 및 기상 현상에 큰 영향을 미친다. 현재 우리나라에서는 토양수분 자료구축을 위해 Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR), Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) 센서를 활용하여 지점 단위 토양수분 자료를 생산하고 있다. 그러나 한반도는 도서, 산간 지역이 다수 분포하고 있어, 지점관측 센서만으로 공간 대표성을 갖는 토양수분 자료를 산출하기 어렵다. 이에, 광범위한 지역을 장기간 모니터링 할 수 있는 원격탐사 기법을 활용하여, Advanced SCATterometer (ASCAT), Soil Moisture Active and Passive (SMAP) 등의 공간 단위 토양수분 자료의 적용성이 평가되고 있다. 하지만, 공간 토양수분 자료의 검증을 위해 필수적인 지점 토양수분 자료가 구축되지 않은 미계측지역이 다수 존재하며, 한반도와 같이 지형적 복잡성이 높게 나타나는 지역에서는 계측지역에서의 활용성 평가 결과가 미계측지역에서도 유사하게 나타난다고 가정하기 어렵다. 이에 본 연구에서는, 미계측지역의 공간 토양수분 자료를 산출하고자 계측지역에서 SM2RAIN 알고리즘으로 산출된 강수량 자료와 위성 산출 자료 그리고 지점관측 자료의 관계성을 분석했다. SM2RAIN 알고리즘의 입력자료는 Advanced SCATterometer (ASCAT) 토양수분 자료를 활용했다. ASCAT 토양수분 자료와 SM2RAIN 강수 자료의 검증을 위해 기상청에서 제공하는 Automated Agriculture Observing System (AAOS) 토양수분 자료, Automatic Weather System (AWS) 강수량 자료와 Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) 강수 자료를 활용하였다. 전반적으로 ASCAT 토양수분을 통해 산출한 SM2RAIN 강수량의 추정과GPM 강수량이 유의미한 상관성이 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 추후 Downscaling 기법과 연계하여 지형적 복잡성이 높게 나타나는 지역의 토양수분 추정이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

본 논문의 목적은 기후변화가 한반도에서의 극한기후에 미치는 영향을 전망하고자한다. 먼저, 기상청에서 제공하고 있는 SDQDM 편의보정을 거친 CCAW의 국가 표준기후변화 시나리오 13종을 이용하였으며, 참조기간을 기준으로 기후변화 시나리오의 모의 능력을 검토하였다. 이어 미래의 극한기후변화를 전망하기위해 WMO의 ETCCDI 지수를 이용하여 미래 극한기후를 전망하였다. 또한 Mann Kendall tau를 이용하여 한반도의 강수와 기온관련 극한지수 변화를 전망하였다. 분석 결과를 기온관련 지수에서 Current 기간일 때 WSDI지수가 공간적 변동성이 54%로 예상되며, TXx지수가 지역간의 공간적 변동성이 121%로 가장 클 것이라 예상된다. 강우관련 지수를 살펴보면 Current기간 일 때 r95p지수의 지역별 공간변동성이 59%로, RCP 4.5시나리오일 때 PRCP 지수의 공간변동성이 42%로, CDD지수의 공간변동성이 최대 59%로 분석되었다. 공간분포를 확인해본 결과 기온과 강수관련 지수 모두 한반도 중부지역에서 큰 상승 경향을 보였고, 미래기간의 경우 북한의 서해안, 남한의 남해안 지역에서 가장 큰 증가경향을 보였다. 즉 일습윤지속일수를 의미하는 CWD지수는 경상도, 전라도 지역에서 증가 경향을 나타냈으며, 충청도와 북한전역에서 감소경향을 나타났다. 또한 일교차를 의미하는 DTR지수는 한반도 전역에서 증가하는 것으로 전망되었다.
