This article aims to summarize the scrap recycling status of gold, silver, platinum and palladium from foreign countries by courntires and industries in order to utilize the data for securing the raw materials of the domestic urbanmining industry. The amount of gold from scrap has shown a tendency to decrease in countries other than China, which is attributed to the large imports of scrap containing gold in China. The industry demand for gold is the highest in electronic products, but demand is decreasing. The amount of scrap recycling in silver has declined in other regions compared to those in Europe, indicating that the world's overall scrap recycling volume has declined. Production and demand from scrap of platinum and palladium are mostly for catalysts and have been steadily increasing until now. However, it is expected that the amount of waste catalysts in automobiles will decrease with the increase of electric vehicle use.

전 지구적 급격한 기후변화로 인해 수문기상인자들의 비선형적 변동성이 발생함과 동시에 가뭄, 홍수와 같은 수재해의 발생빈도 및 강도가 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 이에 따라, 세계의 유수기관 (NASA, ESA 등)에서는 대기모형과 해양 모형의 결합 및 수치해석적 접근법을 활용하여 계절내-계절 (Subseasonal to seasonal; S2S) 예측치를 생산하여 제공하고 있다. 이에 따라, 본 연구에서는 European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecast (ECMWF)에서 산정되는 수문기상인자 (강수량, 증발산량 및 유출량)에 대한 정확도를 평가하고자 한다. 연구지역으로는 다양한 기후대 및 토지 피복으로 구성되어 있으며, El-Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Indian Ocean Diapole (IOD)와 같은 기후 현상이 빈번히 발생하는 호주지역을 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다. ECMWF S2S 자료에 대한 통계적 검증은 1) 지점 기반 관측치와 더불어 2) 물수지 모델 기반 수문 추정치 (The Australian Water Resources Assessment Landscape Model; AWRA-L)와 비교하였다. 연구 결과 S2S 강우 및 증발산량 산정치의 경우 비교적 짧은 예측기간(약 2주)에서 상대적으로 높은 상관관계 (R=0.5~0.6)와 낮은 편차 (강수량 = 0.10 mm/day, 증발산량 = 0.21 mm/day)를 나타내었다. 유출량의 경우, 강우 및 증발산량에 비해 상대적으로 낮은 정확도를 나타내었으며, 예측 기간이 길어짐에 따라 불확실성이 상당히 높아지는 것으로 확인되었다. 이는, S2S 계산과정에서 강우 및 증발산량 뿐만아니라 지표 유출로 도달하기 전까지의 수문기상인자들의 불확실성이 모두 모여 유출량의 불확실성이 높아진 것으로 확인할 수 있었다. 계절적 검증에서는, 강우 및 증발산량 모두 여름철에 높은 상관관계를 나타내었지만 불확실성은 상대적으로 큰 값을 나타내었다. 자세한 분석을 위해, 공간적인 불확실성을 분석해본 결과 ECMWF S2S가 매우 습윤하거나 건조한 지역에서 수문기상인자를 예측하는데 있어 한계성이 나타난 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 토대로, 추후 S2S 예측치에 대한 보정과 더불어 미래의 수재해 발생 위험도에 대한 정보를 획득하는데 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

As global trade and maritime port environments change, the need to respond to larger and faster ships is increasing. Accordingly, new ports are being built around metropolitan cities such as Busan and Ulsan. In general, a compaction method using sand or gravel is applied to the construction of a new port. However, due to the lack of sand or gravel and the difficulty in securing economic feasibility due to the increase in unit price, the deep mixing method has recently been used. Therefore, in this study, CMD-SOIL using circulating resources was applied to the Ulsan area, and the applicability was determined by analyzing the laboratory mixing test and boring results at in-situ. As a result of the test, it was analyzed that it showed more than the design mixing strength, and it was possible to secure the similar performance as blast furnace slag cement. In addition, it was analyzed that the design standard strength can be sufficiently secured as a result of in-situ boring. Therefore, considering the field applicability in the Ulsan, it is judged that the use of CMD-SOIL is possible.

In the course of modernization and globalization, each region in Korea has experienced deep subordination to the center of Seoul and the increase of colonization possibility by world capital. In order to overcome the current situation, above all, the strategies should be developed focusing on daily life and life space. The basis for the development of strategies is the establishment of regional identity on life space. It is because of the reason that life space, or small-scale region has drawn wide attention in the research of geography in recent years. Especially, humanistic geography and new regional geography have developed the concerning theory and methodology, and kept going on the research of small-scale regions. Generally speaking, there have been quite large amount of theoretical discussions on small-scale region in recent years in the field of geography. Empirical researches focusing on a particular small-scale region, however, have been rarely made. It seems related to the deficiency of data materials and the obscurity of research framework of small-scale regional geography. A community paper must be very helpful for the geographic research on small-scale region. As community paper is published based on county('gun'), small or mid-size city('si'), or district of large city('gu'), it deals with small news and daily life information closely attached to the region. Accordingly, it functions as a medium of the formation of regional identity. It is also a valuable source material for the validation of regional identity and for the analysis of identity-shaping mechanism. The geographic interests in community paper, first of all, should be taken shape by the work on the geographical distribution and the periodic change of publication situation of community papers in Korea. Another research subject on community paper is the examination of characteristics of the region by analyzing the news and the advertisements. The news in community paper must be a valuable data source of regional studies in geography. Also, the regional identification process of community people through the community paper could be and should be explored, and how the regional centrality, or self-generation based on the identity is achieved will be an important subject.

The construction of Daedeok Science Town, located in Yuseong ward of Daejeon metropolitan city, began in the early 1970s. It started out as a national project to form an agglomeration of the major central government research institutions. Since that time Daedeok Science Town has also attracted private research institutions, mainly during the 1900s. This study geographically analyzes this research institutions to clarify the regional identity of Daedeok Science Town through an integrated approach of existing new regional geography approach, which is characteristics of labour market as the regional pattern of its laborers' residences, spatial labour division, its research network with other institutions, and networks of university, research institution, and corporations, through the spatial spread of intellectual right of property and through network of technology business incubator relationship with spin offs which is appeared to spatial interaction. The results of the study are as follows: First of all, Daedeok Science Town was not only self-sustenance with marketing garden of agricultural regions in the suburb of Daejeon city but also was consign of agricultural products to Daejeon city before 1972. Since that time, the identity of Daedeok Science town has been formed by externally factors of the science development, by the local decentralization of population and public offices in Seoul metropolitan area in terms of the world economy system, and by the internally accessibility maximization of the central location in Korea between 1992 and 1999. On the part of Daedeok Science Town it has some merits of in-migration from nation-wide, and of mother city's Daejeon. Lastly at the period of the venture business beginning after 1999, the role of institution, developing the existing high technology, made great contribution to an attraction of ventures business to here in need of high technology industry growth, including knowledge-based industry in the informated society. On these bases, Daedeok Science Town seems to grow spontaneously as a science park.

The rapid growths of economy and automobiles since the 1970's have caused serious traffic jams and environmental disruption in urban areas. To relieve these problems caused by urbanization, there should be considered alternative means of transportation modes. Many developed countries have accepted bicycles as a so called "Green Mode" for environmentally oriented strategies to increase the qualities of urban lives. Korea have also attempted various means to raise bicycle usages. In this research, significant factors affecting bicycle crashes at signalized intersections in urban areas were studied. The model results showed that Poisson regression is the best fit methodology for data modeling and revealed that traffic volume, a number of driveways, configuration of the ground, presence of bicycle path, school, and bus stop, residential area, size of intersection are significant factors affecting the bicycle crashes.

전 세계적으로 기후변화에 따른 기온상승 및 강수량 증가, 호우일수 증가 등 이상기후로 인해 다양한 형태의 자연재해가 발생하고 있으며, 이로 인해 우리나라에서도 폭우, 풍랑, 가뭄, 대설 등으로 인한 자연재해 발생이 증가하고 있다. 특히 우리나라는 연평균 강수량 1,300mm의 대부분의 강우가 하절기인 6 ~ 9월에 태풍 및 집중호우를 동반하여 발생하기 때문에 연강수량의 60%이상이 여름철에 집중된다. 이러한 여름철에 집중된 강우로 인해 홍수 및 범람 피해가 여름철에 급증하고 있으며, 2차 피해인 산사태 및 토석류 피해 또한 급증하고 있는 추세이다. 토석류는 집중호우 시 자연산지의 취약한 사면이 붕괴되어 유출수와 함께 급경사의 계류로 붕괴된 토석이 유출되면서 토석류로 전이 및 발전하여 계류하부의 주택 및 농경지를 매몰하여 피해를 발생시킨다. 특히 토석류는 유출수와 함께 토석이 급경사의 계류를 따라 빠른 속도로 이동하고 퇴적 시작점에서 높이의 6배까지 이동하여 인명피해 등 큰 피해를 발생시키는 특성이 있다. 이러한 토석류 피해로 인한 피해와 손실을 최소화하기 위해서는 토석류 발생 시 피해 규모를 예측하여야하며, 또한 하부 구조물의 손실을 정량적으로 해석하여 방재정책의 우선순위를 수립하여야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 강우로 인한 토석류 발생시 하부 구조물의 손실을 정량적으로 해석하기 위하여 토사재해 손실·손상함수를 개발하여, 함수를 탑재한 토사재해 피해액 산정모형인 DELET(DEbris flow Loss Estimation Tool) 모형을 개발하였다. DELET를 이용하여 실제 토석류 피해가 발생한 피해지역에 적용하여 토사재해 피해 구조물의 손실을 평가하였다.

2010년부터 2019년까지 지난 10년간 한국의 ODA 현황을 규모와 유형 측면에서 살펴보면, 양자 간 원조 중 유·무상원조 비중은 큰 변동 없이 OECD DAC 회원국의 평균을 밑돌고, 다자 간원조는 21~31% 수준을 유지하고 있다. 프로젝트 원조가 꾸준히 가장 큰 비중을 차지하며 사회 인프라 및 서비스 분야에서 가장 많은 사업이 추진되고 있다. 특히, 수자원과 위생 부문은 사회 인프라 및 서비스 분야에서 보건(33%)과 교육(25%)에 이어 가장 높은 비중(19%)을 차지하고 있다(10년 누계, 약정 기준). 2020년 7월, 현 정부는 '개발 협력을 통한 코로나19 회복력 강화 프로그램(Agenda for Building resilience against COVID-19 through development cooperation, 일명 ABC 프로그램)'을 발표하고, 개도국의 경제·사회 회복력 강화를 위하여 기존 ODA 사업에 ICT와 친환경 사업 요소를 접목한 디지털 및 그린뉴딜 ODA 사업을 적극 발굴, 추진하겠다고 밝혔다. 지난 10년간, 한국과 가장 많은 다자 간 원조를 추진한 지역개발은행(36%)과 세계은행그룹(35%)에서도 코로나19와 같은 위기극복하기 위한 뉴노멀로서 환경 사업의 비중을 높이고 있다. 예컨대, 아시아개발은행은 코로나19에 대응하기 위한 도시 차원의 단·중기 행동 계획으로 도시 상하수도 시설의 지속적인 원활한 운영과 필수적인 물, 위생, 보건(WaSH) 서비스 제공을 최우선적인 조치로 발표하였다. 이러한 배경에서 본 연구는 한국의 ODA 정책 방향을 검토하고 국제사회의 추진 동향을 분석하여 향후 한국이 특화하고 경쟁력을 가질 수 있는 환경 분야의 ODA 전략을 제시하고자 한다. 본 연구 결과는 ODA를 통해 해외 진출을 도모하는 민간기업과 국력 향상의 수단으로써 ODA를 적극적으로 활용하겠다는 기조를 지닌 새 정부의 ODA 전략 수립에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.
