In order to make a connection in teaching similar concepts between mathematics and science in teaching similar concepts, this paper analyzed the contents related to capacity, volume, weight, and mass in the mathematics and science textbooks aligned with the national elementary curriculum. We first explored when to present such topics in both textbooks, and then analyzed in what ways the topics were addressed in terms of quantitative comparison, vocabulary, units of measurement, measurement, tools for measurement, estimation, and connections to real life. The results of this study showed that there were some aspects emphasized in common both in mathematics and science textbooks. The analysis of this study also demonstrated subtle but considerable differences according to the characteristics of two subject matters. Based on these results, this paper provides implications for elementary school teachers to consider in teaching capacity, volume, weight, and mass through mathematics and science lessons.

The purpose of the study is to identify the effect of length and right angle indication on the understanding of the concept of the figure when presenting the task of classifying the plane figures. we recorded thirty three 4th grade students' performance with eye-tracking technologies and analyzed the correct answer rate and gaze duration. The findings from the study were as follows. First, correctness rate increased and Gaze duration decreased by marking length in isosceles triangle and equilateral triangle. Second, correctness rate increased and Gaze duration decreased by marking right angle in acute angle triangle and obtuse triangle. Based on these results, it is necessary to focus on measuring the understanding of the concept of the figure rather than measuring the students' ability to measure by expressing the length and angle when presenting the task of classifying the plane figures.

Recently, we have been listening such a words, that is, the crisis of public education through the mass communication such as newspaper or broadcasting. This means that we didn't have an enough opportunity to think it over about good education programme which the education of school can be normalized or the design of curriculum in the current problems such as overcrowded class, teacher and poor finance which is not still solved. As we know, it is true that the older generation is familiar with the rote learning which was under the control of behaviorism for about three hundred years. Fortunately, The 7th curriculum which had made public by the ministry of education on 30 Dec. 1997 have changed so many things such as real life based or activity based and so on. But it still leaves something to be desired in reflecting the demand of teachers of field. Taking into account this real situation, I have wondered how they run curriculum and how math learning programme of lower grade is different with ours in New Zealand, etc and so I had tried to find some suggestive points through the comparison of curriculum and text between Korea and New Zealand. But, if we want to compare all the strands of curriculum between two countries, it is too global and so in this paper, we deal with only number and operations(number), measurement, figure(geometry), equation and patter(algebra), probability and statistics(statistics) which are dealt with more comparatively in the lower grade of primary school. Because the main purpose of this paper is a comparison and analysis of the curriculum and math learning program of the lower grade in the primary school between two countries and so we compare global characteristics of education system and curriculum between two countries, at first and then we dealt with the very core part of the content of New Zealand curriculum within the ranges of level 1, 2 and 3 and global characteristics of learning program simultaneously.

An analytical model was developed by Sim to estimate the two-phase damping ratio for upward two-phase flow perpendicular to horizontal tube bundles. The parameters of two-phase flow, such as void fraction and pressure loss evaluated in the model, were calculated based on existing experimental formulations. However, it is necessary to implement a few improvements in the formulations for the case of tube bundles. For the purpose of the improved formulation, we need more information about the two-phase parameters, which can be found through experimental test. An experiment is performed with a typical normal square array of cylinders subjected to the two-phase flow of air-water in the tube bundles, to calculate the two-phase Euler number and the two-phase friction multiplier. The pitch-to-diameter ratio is 1.35 and the diameter of cylinder is 18mm. Pressure loss along the flow direction in the tube bundles is measured with a pressure transducer and data acquisition system to calculate the two-phase Euler number and the two-phase friction multiplier. The void fraction model by Feenstra et al. is used to estimate the void fraction of the two-phase flow in tube bundles. The experimental results of the two phase friction multiplier and two-phase Euler number for homogeneous and non-homogeneous two-phase flows are compared and evaluated against the analytical results given by Sim's model.

Purpose: The purposes of this paper are to develop a theoretical basis that the beam directions should be considered when the mechanical accuracy of teletherapy machine is evaluated by the star pattern test, to develop methods using asymmetric field in length to simulate beam direction for the case that beam direction does not appear on film. Method: In evaluating mechanical rotational accuracy of the gantry of teletherapy unit by the star pattern test, the direction of radiation beams was considered. A star pattern using some narrow beams was made. Density profiles at 10cm far from estimated gantry axis on the star pattern were measured using an optical densitometer. On each profile, one coordimate of a beam axis was determined. A pair of coordinates on a beam axis form an equation of the axis. Assume that a unit vector equation omitted is with same direction as radiation beam and a vector equation omitted is a vector directing to the beam axis from the estimated gantry axis. Then, a vector product equation omitted ${\times}$ equation omitted is an area vector of which the absolute value is equal to the distance from the estimated gantry axis to the beam axis. The coordinate of gantry axis was obtained by using least-square method for the area vectors relative to the average of whole area vectors. For the axis, the maximum of absolute value of area vectors would be an accuracy of the gantry rotation axis. For the evaluation of mechanical accuracies of collimator and couch axes for which beam direction could not be depicted on a star pattern test film, narrow beams asymmetric in field length was used to simulate beam direction. Result: For a star test pattern to evaluate the mechanical accuracy of rotational axes of a telectherapy machine, the result considering beam direction was different from that ignoring beam direction. For the evaluation of mechanical accuracies of collimator and couch axes by means of a star pattern test, narrow asymmetric beams could simulate beam direction. Conclusion: When a star pattern test is used to evaluate the mechanical accuracy of a teletherapy unit, beam direction must be considered or simulated, and quantitatively evaluated.

'역상고성'은 '신법산서'에 수록되어 있는 티코브라헤의 역법체계와 그 밖의 천문 내용들을 중국인 천문학자들에 의하여 확실하게 정리를 하였지만 '역상고성'에 따른 추보는 천상과 불일치를 보게 되었다. 藪內淸(야부우치 키요시) 저(1969), 유경로 역(1985)에 의하면 이러한 불일치는 옹정 8년 6월 초 1일의 일식이었는데 예보의 오류를 정정한다는 것을 중국 천문학자들이 감당하기 어려웠다. 퀘글러(Ignatius Kögler, 戴進賢, 1680~1746)와 페레이라(Andreas Pereira, 서무덕(徐懋德), 1690-1743) 등의 선교사 천문학자들이 칙명을 받아 종사하게 되고, 이들이 중심이 되어 '역상고성'보다 더 진보된 서양천문 역법에 기초를 둔 역서가 편찬되게 되었다. '신법산서'와 '역상고성'은 모델에서는 평원(平圓)을 사용하지만 '역상고성후편'에서는 타원(楕圓) 모델을 사용하게 된다. 건륭 7년(1742년)에 10권이 완성되어 '역상고성후편'이라 명하였다. 타원모델을 채택하였지만 지동설에 대한 내용은 전혀 기술되어 있지 않다. 아마도 태양이나 달의 운동을 추보하는데 지구를 중심으로 해야 하기에 이에 대한 언급을 필요치 않았을 수도 있다. '역상고성후편' 은 태양과 달의 운행, 일식과 월식에 대해서만 다루고 있다.그러나 '역상고성'에서는 청몽기차나 지반경차를 티코브라헤의 표 값을 그대로 사용하였고, 이 값들이 관측과 관련이 되어 있음을 설명하려는 무리를 두고 있다. 너무 정확하게 값들이 관측 값들로부터 유도되어 의심이 갈 정도이다. 카시니(Giovanni Domenico Cassini, 喝西尼, 1625~1712)는 자신의 동료 리셰와 함께 파리와 프랑스령 기아나 카이엔에서 충의 위치에 있는 화성과 부근 별의 고도를 관측하여 충의 위치에 있는 화성의 시차를 측정하여 최초로 태양과 지구 사이의 거리를 어림하고, 태양의 지반 경차를 현재와 값과 거의 비슷하게 얻었다. '역상고성후편'에서는 이 내용을 상세하게 다루고 있다. 또한 대기에서 입사각과 굴절각 사이에 Snell의 법칙이 성립하는데 이를 이용하여 모호하게 알았던 청몽기차를 대기의 굴절을 이용하여 현재의 값과 비슷한 값을 얻어 사용할 수 있게 되었다. 이는 모든 천체의 위치를 관측하는데 있어서 매우 정확한 값들을 얻을 수 있게 되고 이에 따라 황도-적도 경사각도 정확하게 얻어진다. '역상고성후편'은 옹정원년을 역원으로 하고 있다. 태양의 운행에 있어서 케플러의 타원 궤도를 이용하게 된다. '신법산서'와 '역상고성'에서는 평균근점이각 M을 모델에서 보여 줄 수 있지만 타원 궤도에서는 이 각이 면적각으로 주어지고, 원 대신 타원을 다루기에 쉽지 않다. 현재는 케플러 방정식을 풀어 가감차를 구하게 되는데 이를 기하학적으로 풀이하는 차적구적법을 소개하고 있다. 이와 함께 면적을 이용하여 타원계각과 타원차각을 구하는 차각구각법도 소개한다. 타원계각과 타원차각을 모두 고려하였기에 현재의 태양의 운동을 기술하는 타원모델과 완벽하게 같다. 다만 사용하는 상수가 아주 조금 다를 분이다. 태양의 경도를 추보하는 방법도 동지점을 기준으로 하고 현재의 방법과 동일하다. 달의 운행도 타원 궤도를 사용한다. '역상고성후편'의 내용은 우리나라의 전해져서 1860년 남병길이 쓴 '시헌기요(時憲紀要)'에는 태양, 달, 일·월식, 오행성의 운동, 항성의 위치, 시간 등을 추보하는데 필요한 내용들이 매뉴얼화 되어 기록되어 있고, 1862년 남병철이 쓴 '추보속해(推步續解)'에도 같은 내용을 담고 있다.

Using eddy covariance method, net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of $CO_2$ ($F_{CO_2}$), $H_2O$ (LE), and sensible heat (H) can be approximated as the sum of eddy flux ($F_c$) and storage flux term ($F_s$). Depending on strength and distribution of sink/source of scalars and magnitude of vertical turbulence mixing, the rates of changes in scalars are different with height. In order to calculate $F_s$ accurately, the differences should be considered using scalar profile measurement. However, most of flux sites for agricultural lands in Asia do not operate profile system and estimate $F_s$ using single-level scalars from eddy covariance system under the assumption that the rates of changes in scalars are constant regardless of the height. In this study, we measured $F_c$ and $F_s$ of $CO_2$, $H_2O$, and air temperature ($T_a$) using eddy covariance and profile system (i.e., the multi-level measurement system in scalars from eddy covariance measurement height to the land surface) at the Chengmicheon farmland site in Korea (CFK) in order to quantify the differences between $F_s$ calculated by single-level measurements ($F_s_{-single}$ i.e., $F_s$ from scalars measured by profile system only at eddy covariance system measurement height) and $F_s$ calculated by profile measurements and verify the errors of NEE caused by $F_s_{-single}$. The rate of change in $CO_2$, $H_2O$, and Ta were varied with height depending on the magnitudes and distribution of sink and source and the stability in the atmospheric boundary layer. Thus, $F_s_{-single}$ underestimated or overestimated $F_s$ (especially 21% underestimation in $F_s$ of $CO_2$ around sunrise and sunset (0430-0800 h and 1630-2000 h)). For $F_{CO_2}$, the errors in $F_s_{-single}$ generated 3% and 2% underestimation of $F_{CO_2}$ during nighttime (2030-0400 h) and around sunrise and sunset, respectively. In the process of nighttime correction and partitioning of $F_{CO_2}$, these differences would cause an underestimation in carbon balance at the rice paddy. In contrast, there were little differences at the errors in LE and H caused by the error in $F_s_{-single}$, irrespective of time.

The importance of securing water resources and their efficient management has attracted more attention recently due to water deficit. In water budget analysis, however, evapotranspiration(${\lambda}E$) has been approximated as the residual in the water balance equation or estimated from empirical equations and assumptions. To minimize the uncertainties in these estimates, it is necessary to directly measure ${\lambda}E$. In this study, using the eddy covariance technique, we have measured ${\lambda}E$ in a mixed forest in the Seolmacheon catchment in Korea from September 2007 to December 2008. During the growing season(May-July), ${\lambda}E$ in this mixed forest averaged about $2.2\;mm\;d^{-1}$, whereas it was on average $0.5\;mm\;d^{-1}$ during the non-growing season in winter. The annual total ${\lambda}E$ in 2008 was $581\;mm\;y^{-1}$, which is about 1/3 of the annual precipitation of 1997 mm. Despite the differences in the amount and frequency of precipitation, the accumulated ${\lambda}E$ during the overlapping period(i.e., September to December) for 2007 and 2008 was both ${\sim}110$ mm, showing virtually no difference. The omega factor, which is a measure of decoupling between forest and the atmosphere, was on average 0.5, indicating that the contributions of equilibrium ${\lambda}E$ and imposed ${\lambda}E$ to the total ${\lambda}E$ were about the same. The results suggest that ${\lambda}E$ in this mixed forest was controlled by various factors such as net radiation, vapor pressure deficit, and canopy conductance. In this study, based on the direct measurements of ${\lambda}E$, we have quantified the relative contribution of ${\lambda}E$ in the water balance of a mixed forest in the Seolmacheon catchment. In combination with runoff data, the information on ${\lambda}E$ would greatly enhance the reliability of water budget analysis in this catchment.
