This study aimed to develop a flow measurement method using drone in flood season. Measuring flow in all branches is difficult to conduct annually due to budget and labor limitation, safety and river works. Especially when heavy rain like storm comes, changes in stage-discharge relationship should be reviewed; however, it is usually impeded by the aforementioned issues. To solve the problem, it developed a simple measuring method with a minimum of labor and time. A numeric map and numeric orthophoto coordinate of South Korea are mostly based on Transverse Mercator Projection (TM) in accordance with rectangular coordinate system and use World Geodetic Reference System 1980 (GRS80) oval figure for conversion. Applying a concept of aerial photogrammetry, it located four visible Ground Control Points (GCP) near the river at Uijeongbu-si (Singok Bridge) and Yeongdong-gun (Youngdong 2nd Bridge) station and measured the coordinates using VRS DGPS. Hovering at a same level, drones took orthophoto of water surface at an interval of 3 seconds. It defined the pictures with GRS80 TM coordinate system, a rectangular coordinate system and then conducted an orthometric correction using GCP coordinates. According to X and Y coordinate analysis, it estimated the distance between the floating positions at 3 seconds-intervals and calculated the flow through the flow area according to the flow path. This study attested applicability of the flow measurement method using drone in flood season by applying the rectangular coordinate system based on the concept of aerial photogrammetry.

Purpose: The current study was designed for development of a simplified malnutrition screening tool (SMST) for hospitalized patients using readily available laboratory and patient information and for evaluation of its reliability compared to well-established tools, such as PGSGA and NRS-2002. Methods: Anthropometric and biochemical measurements, as well as a few subjective assessments, of 903 patients who were preclassified by their nutritional status according to PGSGA were analyzed. Among them, a combination of factors, including age, BMI, albumin, cholesterol, total protein, hematocrit, and changes in body weight and food intake, were statistically selected as variables for SMST. Results: According to SMST, 620 patients (68.7%) were classified as the normal group and 283 patients (31.3%) were classified as the malnutrition group. Significant differences in age, albumin, TLC, BMI, hemoglobin, hematocrit, total protein, cholesterol, and length of stay were observed between the two groups. For inter-methods reliability, the screening results by SMST were compared with those by PGSGA and NRS-2002. The comparison with PGSGA and NRS-2002 showed 'Substantial agreement' (sensitivity 94.4%, specificity 88.4%, ${\kappa}$ = 0.747) and 'Moderate agreement' (sensitivity 96.1%, specificity 79.5%, ${\kappa}$ = 0.505), respectively, indicating that SMST held high inter-methods reliability. Conclusion: In conclusion, SMST, based on readily available laboratory and patient information and simple subjective assessments on changes in food intake and body weight, may be a useful alternative tool with a simple but reliable risk index, especially in resource-limited domestic hospitals.

Hamangun Dohangri $6^{th}$ tumulus was characterized by using geological, geophysical, and geotechnical surveys in terms of the shape of the tombs, origin and geotechnical properties of tomb materials, safety of grave mound and burial chamber. The bedrock (Haman Formation sedimentary rock) forming the ground of the tomb, is weathered such that men can excavate the ground. The mound tomb is classified into soil part and rock part by low resistivity and high resistivity, respectively, through electrical resistivity survey. The burial chamber is mostly made by Haman Formation while some part is composed of granitic rock that is distributed in the most southern district of the study area. According to soil tests, the soil part of mound tomb shows low water content, low pore ratio, and proper unit weight that indicate highly compacted material. Additionally, the mound tomb is safe because the strength of the rock part of the mound tomb exceeds that of general rock.

The purpose of this study was to examine the oral health knowledge of maritime police officers, whose job belonged to the cluster of special occupations, in an effort to provide some information on the development of oral health education programs. The subjects in this study were 499 maritime police officers. After a survey was conducted from March to September, 2013, it's found that just 104 respondents(22.8%) had experience of receiving oral health education. In terms of general knowledge, the respondents who received that education were different from the others who didn't in the level of knowledge on the items related to temporomandibular joint(p=0.026), and there were no differences between the two in knowledge of periodontal health. As for prevention-related knowledge, they had a good knowledge of fluorine. Concerning needs for oral health education, 67.1 percent considered oral health professional manpower to be necessary, and 77.9 percent of the respondents who received oral health education gave this reply(p=0.004). Regarding preference for educational content, the right toothbrushing method was most preferred, followed by oral counseling, the use of oral hygiene supplies, the selection of dentifrice, and nutrition/anti-smoking education. The findings of the study suggest that the development of oral health education programs geared toward the cluster of special occupations such as maritime police is required.

All excavated "buried cultural properties" are supervised by the Cultural Heritage Administration that decides whether to conserve them or not, depending on the necessity for conservation. Currently, there is no legal regulation concerning the administration of relics (including artifacts) and remains (including archaeological sites) that are relocated and restored based on such conservation decisions. Thus, administration of these cultural properties is inadequate. Under these circumstances, this paper recommends the current state of conservation and conservation methods for buried cultural properties excavated at Chungcheongnam-do thus far. Conservation of buried cultural properties excavated at Chungcheongnam-do primarily employ the "relocating and restoration" method; 23 relics and 46 remains employed relocation after dismantling and soil layer transcription method. Moreover, 27 remains were relocated after dismantling and 14 remains employed the transcription method. In terms of area, Buyeo-gun and Gongju-si had 12 relics accounting for about 50%, while according to the period, Baekjae period had 16 relics, accounting for about 70%. In terms of conservation facility, open-air facility had 33 relics, accounting for about 72%. Results of investigating the state of relics' management indicated that public institutions like a museum with a recognizable management system had their own work force and consequently ensured excellent conservation, whereas if there were no apparent responsible bodies, remains were subjected to considerable damage due to mismanagement. Therefore, this problem can be resolved by identifying a recognizable management body as well as ensuring periodical management and supervision. The excavated buried cultural properties are utilized not only for academic purposes, but also for PR or as exhibition material. Hence, this study confirms that meticulous management of buried cultural properties is currently required.

최근 기후변화로 인해 지구촌 곳곳은 이전에 경험하지 못한 극한 홍수재해로 몸살을 앓고 있다. 2011년 태국에서는 짜오프라야강 범람으로 국토의 70% 이상이 침수되었고, 2013년 인도 북부지역에서는 갠지스강 및 지류의 범람, 산사태, 가옥붕괴 등으로 1,000여명이 숨지고 관광객 및 순례객 7만여명의 발이 묶이는 피해가 발생하였으며, 2014년 발칸반도에서는 120년만의 폭우로 인하여 30여명이 사망하고 100만명의 이재민이 발생하였다. 국내의 경우 2011년 수도권을 중심으로 하루에 300mm가 넘는 기록적 호우가 쏟아지면서 주택과 도로의 침수, 산사태 등으로 많은 인명 및 재산피해가 발생하였다. 또한 2014년 8월 경남 부산지역에는 시간당 130mm가 넘는 국지성 호우에 따른 산사태, 침수 등으로 도심기능이 마비되는 피해가 발생하기도 하였다. 이처럼 대부분의 자연재난은 태풍 및 집중호우 등 물재해로 발생하고 있으며, 국내의 경우 2012년 전체 자연재난의 95.6%, 2013년 전체 자연재난의 93%를 물재해가 차지하였다. 이에 구조적 비구조적 홍수 재해 저감대책 수립 및 시행 등 지속적인 물관리 노력으로 대하천에서 발생하는 홍수피해는 크게 감소하였으나, 지자체를 중심으로 운영 관리되고 있는 중소하천에서의 피해는 오히려 점차 증가하고 있다. 조사에 따르면 최근 5년간(2007~2011) 홍수피해의 98% 이상이 중소하천을 중심으로 발생한 것으로 발표된 바 있다. 특히 지자체의 경우 전문인력 및 기술력 부족, 열악한 재정 등으로 피해가 반복되고 있는 실정이다. 이에 따라 중소하천과 같이 소외된 지역의 물복지 향상을 위해서는 홍수재해 상황에 신속하고 효과적으로 대응하기 위한 과학적 체계적인 선진 홍수재해 관리체계의 구축이 요구되는 바이다. 이에 물관리 전문기관인 K-water에서는 지난 2010년부터 ICT기반의 우수한 물관리 기술력과 홍수대응 Know-How를 활용하여 '지자체 맞춤형 홍수재해관리시스템' 구축을 지원하고 있다. 본 시스템은 상 하류의 다양한 재난 정보를 수집 통합하고, 수집된 정보를 활용한 홍수분석을 통해 예방적 재난대응 체계를 구축하는 것으로, K-water는 지난 2010년 남원시를 시작으로 무주군, 군산시, 진안군 등의 시스템 구축을 지원하고 있다. 재난은 복구보다 예방이 우선되어야 함은 모두 다 아는 사실이지만 예산문제 등으로 항상 소 잃고 외양간 고치는 일이 아직까지 반복되고 있다. K-water는 물관리 전문 공기업으로써의 역할을 다하고, 예방 위주의 재난관리 체계 마련을 위해 '지자체 맞춤형 홍수재해관리시스템' 구축 지원을 지속적으로 확대해 나갈 것이다.
