This study was conducted to analyze the effect of climate change on the tree-ring growth of Pinus koraiensis in Korea. Annual tree-ring growth data of P. koraiensis collected by the $5^{th}$ National Forest Inventory were first organized to analyze yearly growth patterns of the species. When tree-ring growth data were analyzed through cluster analysis based on similarity of climatic conditions, five clusters were identified. Yearly growing degree days and standard precipitation index based on daily mean temperature and precipitation data from 1951 to 2010 were calculated by cluster. Using the information, yearly temperature effect index(TEI) and precipitation effect index(PEI) by cluster were estimated to analyze the effect of climatic conditions on the growth of the species. Tree-ring growth estimation equations by cluster were developed by using the product of yearly TEI and PEI as independent variable. The tree-ring growth estimation equations were applied to the climate change scenarios of RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 for predicting the changes in tree-ring growth by cluster of P. koraiensis from 2011 to 2100. The results of this study are expected to provide valuable information necessary for estimating local growth characteristics of P. koraiensis and for predicting changes in tree-ring growth patterns caused by climate change.

In general, quantity results of empirical analysis using model shows how much big performance policy has. Therefore this is useful to evaluate a policy. This paper composed macro economic model based on Bank of Korea's quarterly model and annual model, that estimates performance of overseas oil and gas development project to Korean economy in aspect of quantity. In this model, we estimated each effect in real GDP, current account, unemployment rate, CPI and exchange rate carried by recovered amount from overseas oil and gas development project. The recovered amount was evaluated in currency coming from oil and gas acquired from overseas oil and gas development project. Macro economic model of this paper benchmarked macro model composed by Bank of Korea(1997, 2004, 2012). We reviewed model robustness using statistical suitability of each equation and historical simulation for from 1994 to 2011. The recovered amount of overseas oil and gas development project has positive effect in every macro economic index except CPI and exchange rate. Economic effect to macro economic index become bigger with time because the recovered amount of overseas oil and gas development project are increasing until now. Although empirical results of economic effects in every year from the recovered amount of overseas oil and gas development project are different, as of 2011, empirical results showed that the recovered amount of overseas oil and gas development project increase 2.226% and 0.401% in current account and real GDP respectively. And it also decrease 0.489%p in unemployment rate. Exchange rate to US dollars also decrease in amount of 0.379%.

This paper attempts to compare and analyze the intensity, trend, and regional gap of income inequality, capitalizing upon the Age-Period-Cohort model which considers age, time and cohort effects, with the 1998-2018 Korea Labor Panel (KLIPS) survey data for respondents living in the Capital and Non-Capital Regions. The main analysis results are as follows. First, in the case of both cohort and age effects, those in their 50~60s, including the so-called baby boomers and '386 generation' living in the Capital Region, have relatively lower income inequality effect compared to that of other age groups and cohorts in the Non-Capital Region. Second, the micro-individual characteristics cannot be ignored to account for a regional gap in income inequality, but rather the effects of structural and institutional omitted variables and the social discrimination effects of individual characteristics variables are more significant in explaining it. Overall, intra-and inter-cohort income inequalities appear to overlap.

The primary purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of bilateral Free Trade Agreements on international trade volume of bulk shipment at the port of Busan in Korea using the Gravity Model. Most recently, the total of 15 Korea's FTAs have been enforced since Korea-Chile FTA in 2004 and more than 50 countries became member of Korea's FTAs. Therefore, aggregated trade volume of Korea's FTA members out of the total trade volume in Korea increased from 25% in 2011 to 67% in 2015. Five Korea's bilateral FTA members are concerned as experimental group while top 10 foreign countries base on trade volume of bulk shipment are applied to the model as control group and panel data was used in this study. According to the results, bilateral FTA, GDP and population have positive impacts on trade volume of bulk shipment at the port of Busan. On the other hand, distance between Korea and its trade partner has negative impact. In examining Hausman test and LR test, the random effect model is statistically more appropriate than the fixed effect model for this study.

As the development of IT technology and Web services have changed recently, education environment combined with high-tech digital content is becoming a new trend with the demands of educational consumers. In Korea, however, there is no systematic discussion on the issue, and there is not enough evidence to verify the effectiveness of the research. Therefore, we will systematically analyze the educational effects of Digital Storytelling to create an educational environment that meets the new horizon of intelligent web and personalized service provision in the Web3.0 era, In this study, 12 domestic experimental studies that verify the educational effects of digital storytelling were systematically analyzed, compared with overseas cases, and proposed development plans in the Web3.0 era.

강변저류지 설계를 위해 주로 사용되고 있는 방법은 1차원 부정류 수치모형인 HEC-RAS의 Storage 기법이다. HEC - RAS의 Storage 기법을 이용할 경우 설계자는 유입부 설계제원과 저류용량 외에 두 개의 매개변수를 결정해 주어야 한다. 하나는 하천의 조도계수이며, 다른 하나는 횡월류 위어의 유량계수이다. 그 중 횡월류 위어 유량계수는 강변저류지 홍수조절효과에 직접적으로 영향을 주는 저류량과 관련되어 있다. 따라서 저류량을 결정하기 위한 유량계수는 기존 연구자들에 의해 다양한 산정식들이 제시되어 있다. 하지만 횡월류 유량계수가 동일한 흐름 조건에서도 산정식별로 차이를 보이고 있어서, 설계자가 어떤 유량계수를 선택하느냐가 매우 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 홍수시 발생 가능한 유량계수의 범위를 결정한 후 설계 인자별로 유량계수의 변화에 따른 강변저류지 홍수조절효과를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 유량계수에 따라 크게는 최대홍수량 대비 약 5 ~ 6% 정도의 차이를 보였다. 이는 가장 작게 산정된 홍수조절효과의 범위가 약 15 ~ 20% 정도인 것과 비교하면 큰 차이를 보이는 것으로 확인하였다. 따라서 강변저류지 홍수조절효과 산정시 발생 가능한 다양한 유량계수를 적용하여 보수적으로 설계하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was carried out to estimate long-term demand functions, and to project consumption of roundwood to the year 2030, using time series data for the period 1970-1990. Especially, the unique features of this study are in the estimation of demand functions for roundwood by species group and by end-use with help of dummy variables. It also, attempts to show how dummy variables can be utilized for improving the estimation result. The result of this study reveals that hardwood roundwood consumption is being substituted by softwood roundwood due to the rapid increase in the relative price of softwood, and this trend is expected to continue in the near future. The consumption of roundwood by mining industry is projected to fall as the coal :mining is expected to decline. The parametric estimates of timber demand function by species group and by end-use indicate that the demand for timber in Korea is more responsive to the performance of domestic economy as a whole, represented by GDP in this study, than to other variables such as own and substitute prices. The effects of population growth and substitute prices could not be determined.

This study aims to evaluate the usability of a banking app that is frequently used by the elderly. To this end, the usability PACMAD(People At the Center of Mobile Application Development) model that can be used in mobile was explained and the usability evaluation was empirically verified for the elderly over 60 years of age. For this study, descriptive statistics and variance analysis were conducted using SPSS 25.0 for 165 elderly people who had experience using banking apps. Looking at the analysis results of this study, efficiency, satisfaction, and effectiveness showed relatively high scores, and learnability, memorability, error, and cognitive load showed relatively low scores. In addition, in the verification of differences by age, it was confirmed that there were differences in all variables by age. These results suggest that the elderly's usability evaluation of banking apps and differences by age could be confirmed, but there is also a limitation that comparison with the general public is difficult because the age is limited to the elderly.
