This study was carried out to offer the forensic entomological evidence to estimate the postmortem interval (PMI) based on the decomposing state of the pig carrion and the arthropod succession in exposed carrion. A total of 48 species of 28 families belonging to 7 orders were collected, and dominant insect varied with season, i. e., the Calliphoridae in March, May and October, both of the Calliphoridae and the Staphylinidae in July, and the Staphylinidae in September. The Calliphoridae was the first visiting insect throughout all the seasons as well as the index insect dominant in the early decomposing stage. The index insect in the later decomposing stage, however, was the Staphylinidae throughout all the seasons except in March. In March, the Muscidae was dominant, presumably because the flies consistently arrived throughout the extended period of decomposition of the carrion owing to the low ambient temperature of the season. In this connection, it is known that not only the decomposition stage of the carrion and the carrion-associated insect but also the climatological condition of the region have to be taken into consideration to estimate the PMI.

This study porvides an empirical overview of the import patterns of Incheon port using an Engle-Granger cointegration technique and Johansen's multivariate cointegraion methodology test to check the stationarity of the model. The empirical results show that the import in Incheon port related to the economic variables. This paper also applies rolling regression to our model, indicating that import are endogeneous to the economic variable.

This study examined one of the concerned or even imperative issues in the field of contemporary finance related to approaching an optimal level of cash holdings for the firms belonging to the chaebols in the Korean domestic capital markets. However, the subject may not have been drawn much attention so far, even if there are still ongoing and active debates among the interest parties at the macro- or micro-level. Two primary hypotheses were postulated to be empirically tested. On the results of the first hypothesis test for the existence of an optimal cash reserves for the sample firms, two estimation techniques were performed in terms of a quadratic regression equation and a relationship between a firm's value and the residuals derived from the static panel date model. As a primary financial implication of the study which may contribute to the practitioners and the academics in finance, the optimal level of cash holdings can be estimated by controlling for the a priori significant components for the sample firms towards maximizing firm value.

The experiment was conducted to know the effect of plant growth regulators on axillary bud elongation from in vitro stem cutting and the possibility of virus-free stock production. Axillary buds were well elongated in 3/4 strength MS medium supplemented with 0.1 or 0.5 mg/1 BA and 0.05 mg/1 NAA. Transferred plantlets could be established well in vermiculite and peat moss mixture (3:1, v/v) compare to other mixtures. In virus indexing, all the varieties of mother plants were infected by GLRV Ⅲ. Infected percentages of the three varieties were ranged from 30% to 75%. But negative response was revealed against the other species of virus, GLRV Ⅰ, GFLV and ArMV. Plantlet of 'Schuyler' and 'Muscat of Alexandria', which were cultured in vitro, showed positive response against GLRV Ⅲ and infected percentage of the former was 37.5% but the latter, 12.5%. On the other hand, that of 'Campbell Early' negativiely responded against all the species of virus indexed.

This study presents a case study designed to compare the selection efficiency between phenotypic selection (PS) and marker-assisted selection (MAS) in breeding of resistance lines to brown planthopper (BPH). The efficiency between PS and MAS were compared with four population such as the $F_2$, RILs ($F_6$), DH, and backcrosse ($BC_6F_5$) population, derived from a cross 'Samgang / Nagdong'. The resistance lines were selected using two markers, RM28493 and BpE18-3, related to BPH resistance were screened as resistance lines over 95% in PS. The costs required for BPH screening in the MAS system account for approximately 32% of the total costs of PS. The period needed to select the resistance plants was 30 days in PS and 7 days in MAS. Based on the results, we could establish the breeding system for selection of BPH resistance lines by MAS.

This study was conducted on 315 women in their 20s and 40s living in Changwon, South Gyeongsang Province, and recorded in a self-recorded format using the questionnaire survey method. In this study, the skin type according to the skin condition was not applied for 30 minutes after washing and checking the cheek area through the examination method to distinguish it by intelligence, neutral, dryness and boredom to see the interaction with each condition. The X2-test was conducted to find out the relevance between each factor and the data processing was done using PC/SAS. We reached at following conclusions. We can find some connections between skin condition and age, job, marriage by statistics(p<0.01). Each value of X2-TEST was 42.961(p<0.001) and 7.345(p<0.05). The pimples are shown after stress on cheek, chin and around neck easily. We also find some connections between skin trouble reaction and the beginning of pimple shown time(p<0.01).

The 1,081 soybean genotypes including 972 black soybeans and 109 other colored soybeans were collected in 197 locations from January to April, 1991. Seed chemical components of soybean collections in relation to growth characters were evaluated to survey germplasms for black soybean breeding for seed quality. Seeds of 1,081 genotypes collected were analyzed for crude protein, crude lipid, and total sugar contents. The crude protein content was averaged to 39.8% and ranged from 34.1% to 48.0%. The average crude lipid and total sugar contents were 20.1% and 10.1%, and the ranges of those were 14.1% to 23.8% and 8.3% to 12.1%, respectively. Higher crude protein content was shown in early soybean maturity group, whereas higher total sugar content was in late group. Black soybean collections with green seed embryo tended to be higher in total sugar content than those with yellow one. Black soybean oil is generally composed of about 22% oleic, 55% linoleic, 7% linolenic acid, and 16% the others.

기후변화가 고착화되면서 강우와 기온 변동으로 인한 가뭄 및 홍수 발생이 점차 증가하고 있다. 유역 단위의 유출량 예측은 기후변화로 인한 자연재해에 대비하기 위한 수자원 관리의 시작이라 할 수 있다. 하지만, 기후변화와 유출모형의 불확실성은 정확한 유출 분석을 어렵게 한다. 본 연구에서는 위에 제시된 불확실성을 완화하기 위하여 기후 스트레스 시나리오에 따른 두 개의 집중형 수문모형, 즉 airGR과 IHACRES를 이용하여 강우 및 온도 변화에 따른 유출량 변화를 비교, 분석하였다. 연구 대상 지역은 합천댐과 섬진강댐 유역이며, 각 모형을 NSE(Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency) 및 KGE(Kling Gupta Effieicncy)를 목적함수로 하여 매개변수를 최적화를 하였다. 모형의 보정과 검정은 20년(1995년~2014년)의 유출 자료를 활용하였으며, 보정 및 검정 기간은 각각 6:4 비율로 설정하였다. 두 모형 모두 보정과 검정 기간에 비교적 높은 신뢰도(NSE>0.7, KGE>0.8)를 보여, 모형이 과거 사상을 재현하기에 적합하고, 모의 결과가 비교적 유사함을 확인하였다. 다음으로, 기후 스트레스 시나리오를 구축하기 위해 위 20년 입력 자료를 바탕으로, 강우는 -50%에서 +50%의 범위를 1%씩 구분하였으며, 기온은 0℃에서 8℃까지 0.1℃ 범위로 하여 총 8,181개의 시나리오를 구축하였다. 이후, 기후 스트레스 시나리오에 따른 두 모형의 풍수량, 최대 유량, 평수량을 비교, 분석하였다. 기후 스트레스 영향을 반영한 풍수량과 연최대유량의 경우, 강우 증가에 따른 유출 증가 등의 패턴은 두 모형에서 비슷하였으나, 강우와 기온의 변화가 커질수록 더욱 상이한 결과를 얻었다. 이와 반대로, 평수량의 경우 강우와 온도의 변화가 증가함에 따라 더욱 유사한 결과를 얻었다. 즉, 유역의 탄력적 기후변화 대응을 위해서는 모형의 불확실성에 대한 정량적 평가가 필요하다는 것을 시사한다.

This study examined a long-standing issue with its perverse results in the Korean capital markets, such as any variant financial profiles over time, affecting capital structure for the firms belonging to the chaebols. It may be of interest to identify these components from the perspectives of international investors and domestic policy makers to implement their contingent strategies on the target leverage, since the U.S. financial turmoils in the late 2000s. Regarding the evidence from the three hypothesis tests on the firms in the chaebols, this research found that the control variabels measuring profitability, business risk, and non-debt tax shields, showed their statistically significant relationships with the different types of a debt ratio. While FCFF(free cash flow to the firm) showed its significant influence to discriminate between the firms in the chaebols and their counterparts, not belonging to the chaebols, BDRELY as the ratio of liabilities to total assets, comprising the enhanced 'Dupont' system, only showed its statistically significant effect on leverage in the context of the parametric and nonparametric tests. In line with the results obtained from the present research, one may expect that a firm in the Korean chaebol, may control or restructure its present level of capital structure to revert to its target optimal capital structure towards maximizing the shareholders' wealth.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of bimanual intensive training on Upper Extremity Function and activities of daily living in stroke patients. Methods : The subjects were 18 patients who were diagnosed with hemiplegic stroke. They were randomly assigned to bimanual intensive training group (n=9) and unilateral intensive group (n=9). Bimanual training group performed bimanual task and unilateral training group performed one hand task for 1 hour per session, 5 times a week, for 4 weeks. Chi-square test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, and Mann-Whitney U test were used for analysis. Results : The results showed that, upper extremity motor function and bimanual coordination were significantly improved in patients in the bimanual training group (p<.05). Additionally, the ratio of affected hand use and amount of use/quality of movement in the hemiplegic upper extremity in activities of daily living for patients in the bimanual training group were significantly improved (p<.05). Although the unilateral group improved motor upper extremity function and activities of daily living in the upper extremity (p<.05), it was not significantly different from that in the bimanual training group. In between-group comparison, bimanual coordination and ratio of the affected hand use in a day were significantly different (p<.05). Conclusion : It is reasonable to conclude that bimanual intensive training therapy is an effective intervention method to improve upper extremity motor function, and activities of daily living in stroke patients.
