최근 기후변화로 인한 전 세계적인 기온상승이 야기되고 있으며, 농업에 직접적인 영향을 주는 기상학적 및 수문학적 변화가 급격하게 진행되고 있다. 우리나라의 경우 최근 7년 동안 지역별로 극심한 가뭄이 매년 발생하고 있고, 가뭄의 발생 빈도와 강도가 증가하는 추세이다. 특히 밭의 경우 농업용 저수지 등 수리시설물로부터 관개용수를 공급받는 논 작물과 달리 자연 강우를 통해 필요한 용수량을 공급받는 천수답이 대부분이고 관개시설이 부족하기 때문에, 기후변화에 의한 가뭄의 취약성이 높다. 밭작물은 작물의 생육 시기와 기후 환경, 수자원 환경에 민감하고 토양수분을 흡수함으로써 생육하기 때문에 이러한 밭작물의 소비수량 및 관개용수량은 증발산량 뿐만 아니라 토양내 수분의 이동을 고려하여 수분 부족량을 산정해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 미래 기후변화에 의한 밭가뭄 평가를 위하여 밭 작물별 소비수량 및 관개용수량을 추정하기 위한 밭 토양수분 물수지 모형 (Soil Moisture Model)을 구성하였다. 또한 대표농도경로 (Representative Concentration Pathway, RCP) 시나리오 기반의 제5차 결합기후모델상호비교사업 (Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5, CMIP5)에서 제공하는 RCP 시나리오를 기반으로 한 전지구 기후모델 (General Circulation Model, GCM)의 기후예측결과를 적용함으로써 미래 밭 가뭄 평가를 수행하였다. 과거 기상자료 및 미래 대표농도경로 시나리오와 작물 기초자료를 수집하여 과거 및 미래 작물증발산량을 산정하였으며, 토양수분 물수지 모형에 적용하여 밭작물의 토양수분 변화를 모의하고 기후변화에 따른 작물별/생육시기별 소비수량 및 관개용수량을 추정하였다.

The removal efficiencies by elastic fire gas mask of toxic gases CO, HCl, HCN, and $SO_2$ produced by a fire have a key role in saving lives. The elastic fire gas mask comprises a visible window, elastic hood, gas purification canister, and air vent. It does not have hair or neck thongs, which makes it easy to use and put on quickly. This research examined the removal efficiency of toxic gases by such a mask. The removal efficiencies for CO with a background concentration of 2505.0 ppm were 99.99 and 99.98% after 3.5 and 8.5 min, respectively. The residual CO concentration was drastically increased after 8.5 min. The removal efficiencies for HCl, HCN, and $SO_2$ with background concentrations of 1003.0, 399.0, and 100.3 ppm, respectively, were 100% after 20 min.

Since risks occurring in construction projects can have a significant impact on schedules and costs, there have been many studies on this topic. However, risk analysis is often limited to only certain construction situations,and experience-dependent decision-making is therefore mainly performed. Data-based analyses have only been partially applied to safety and contract documents. Therefore, in this study, cluster analysis and a Word2Vec algorithm were applied to formal documents that contain important elements for contractors or clients. An initial classification of document content into six types was performed through cluster analysis, and 157 occurrence types were subdivided through application of the Word2Vec algorithm. The derived terms were re-classified into five categories and reviewed as to whether the terms could develop into potential construction risk factors. Identifying potential construction risk factors will be helpful as basic data for process management in the construction industry.

Due to the outbreak of the COVID-19, self-service technology is widely used in Korea, and demand for disposable cups is increasing significantly. Waste and recycling of disposable cups have become a social concern for Koreans and Korea implemented the "Disposable Cup Deposit Systems" again in December 2022. Whether the emergence of this system can change the way people behave in environmental protection is a question to be examined in this study. Companies participating in the disposable cup deposit system are hoping that customers will actively recover cups through self-service in the process of collecting disposable cups. The government, along with businesses, transfers recovery work to customers through self-service technologies and schemes. Due to the increase in Shadow Work and the strengthening of consumer environmental protection consciousness, this paper focuses on how unmanned service types such as self-service technology can affect people's environmental protection behavior. An empirical analysis with 477 samples examined how the characteristics of shadow work, perceived efficacy, environmental awareness, and ecological guilt affect user's environmental protection behavior. Perceived efficacy that acts as a mediator and ecological guilt that plays as a moderator are investigated. Although there have been many studies on the effects of shadow work on customer behavioral intentions before, it has been very rare to study the effects of shadow work perceived by people on environmental behavioral intentions from an environmental protection perspective. This study shows that the higher the perceived efficacy of consumers, the more people prefer self-service technology and the stronger the environmental protection behavior. Also, consumers' ecological guilt significantly moderates the relationship between environmental consciousness and eco-friendly behavior. It is expected that companies and governments will be able to understand the impact of shadow work on consumers' environmental protection behavior and further promote environmental protection by appropriate policies and marketing strategies.

Global concern over climate change, driven by greenhouse gas emissions, has prompted widespread interest in sustainable solutions. In the agricultural sector, biochar has emerged as a focal point for mitigating these emissions. This study investigated the impact of continuous biochar application on CO₂ and N₂O emissions during the spring cabbage cultivation period. Greenhouse gas emissions in the biochar treatment groups (soils treated with 1, 3, and 5 tons/ha of rice husk biochar) were compared to those in the control group without biochar. During the spring cabbage cultivation period in 2022, the total CO₂ emissions were in the range of 71.6-119.0 g/m² day, and in 2023, with continuous biochar application, they were in the range of 71.6-102.1 g/m² day. The total emissions of N₂O in 2022 and 2023 were in the range of 11.7-23.7 and 7.8-19.9 g/m² day, respectively. Overall, greenhouse gas emissions decreased after biochar treatment, confirming the positive influence of biochar on mitigating greenhouse gas release from the soil. Nevertheless, further research over an extended period exceeding five years is deemed essential to delve into the specific mechanisms behind these observed changes and to assess the long-term sustainability of biochar's impact on greenhouse gas dynamics in agricultural settings.

The rendering residue generated by rendering disposal, an eco-friendly livestock carcass disposal method, is a useful agricultural resource. Methods for recycling this are being actively researched, and this study investigated the impact of applying rendered residue directly to soil on crop productivity and the agricultural environment. The chemical properties of the rendering residue were examined. The pH, OM, T-N, T-P, CaO, K₂O, and MgO content values were 5.47%, 59.8%, 9.22%, 2.96%, 2.16%, 0.51% and 0.10%, respectively. Treatment conditions were divided into control, inorganic fertilizer, and rendering residue, and rendering residue corresponding to 50, 100, and 200% nitrogen content was applied based on the amount of inorganic fertilizer nitrogen input. Greenhouse gases and ammonia were collected during the cultivation period. Rendering residue increased both the yield and growth of peppers and was effective in improving nutrients such as pH and OM of the soil after harvest. However, compared to inorganic fertilizer treatment, it increased emissions of nitrous oxide and methane as well as ammonia. It is judged that the direct agricultural use of rendering residue is difficult, and a utilization method is needed.
