This research analyzed job satisfaction for improvement in job satisfaction of forest interpreters and effective management. Interpreters felt satisfied with their job with a mean satisfaction score 3.41 out of 5 but unsatisfied with pay and job benefits. Job satisfaction showed significant differences in interpreting field, agencies and working period. Results from factor analysis, job satisfaction classified into four factors; team atmosphere, level of compensation, job conflict and working environment. And interpreters more satisfied in team atmosphere and working condition than level of compensation and job conflict. Also this study showed related variables to job satisfaction. Team atmosphere was related with working period and agency, the level of compensation was also related with agency and the working environment is in relation to agency and interpreting field.

During the global financial turmoil in 2007-2008, deviation from the covered interest parity (CIP) between the Korean won and US dollar through the foreign exchange swap has escalated in its magnitude beyond 1,000bp in November 2008, and it still persists around 100bp level. In this paper, we examine a newly developed margin based asset pricing model using Kalman filter approach and show that the escalation of the CIP deviation is found to be significantly related to the global dollar funding illiquidity and country-specific funding conditions. Furthermore, we find evidence that the poor funding conditions (or higher margins) are driven by the general money market illiquidity and may lead to higher funding illiquidity, which suggests the reinforcing effects of the liquidity spiral. We also show that the supply of dollar liquidity and improved funding conditions help alleviate the deviations from the parity, however the persistent anomaly is found to be related to the high level of volatility in the FX swap market.

As a way to address global warming, among the renewable energy sources, there have been heavy investments worldwide for the development of offshore wind farms. However, such development has a drawback: investment costs are higher than those for onshore wind farms due to required operations such as offshore transportation and installation. In particular, delays in installation due to adverse maritime weather conditions are factors that affect the economics of offshore wind farms' operation. Therefore, in this study, we analyze the optimal schedule of the construction of an offshore wind farm from a macro perspective by considering the weather conditions in Korea. For this purpose, we develop a mathematical model and apply it to a 2.5 GW offshore wind farm project on the southwestern coast of the country. We use data from the Korea Meteorological Agency for maritime weather conditions and attempt to reflect the actual input data based on precedent cases overseas. The results show that it takes 6 months to install 35 offshore wind turbines. More specifically, it is pointed out that it is possible to minimize costs by not working in winter.

This study aims to suggest the direction of urban planning for coping with climate change focusing on urban metabolism. The study consists of two main parts: literature review and case study. The cases are selected for mixed-use housing estate in Europe, which established the plans for energy saving and efficient use of resources and waste. The case study was carried out in accordance with the framework, which had four aspects that are 'to minimize energy input,' 'to use renewable energy sources,' 'to recycle waste,' and 'to reuse natural resources.' As a result, in all the cases, analysis showed that the circular metabolism system was built for energy, waste and water resources and that the plan satisfying all the aspects of the framework was established. Moreover, main planning elements are different reflecting resource conditions for each case. In conclusion, in order to achieve urban metabolism, it will be necessary to analyze various conditions including the surrounding environment of the region and to introduce planning elements that can maximize the regional potential.

The Bimodal Tram being developed in Korea is a new transit system that provides both benefits of rail and bus systems in terms of accessibility and fixed time schedule. This study accomplished a feasibility study for introducing the Bimodal Tram system by considering the travel demand and existing transit system at a city level based on its population. The feasibility of Bimodal Tram system varies depending on cities with respect to demographic scale, mode shares, and operational distances. The strategies introduced here will help any cities where transport agencies are trying to introduce the Bimodal Tram as a new transit system.

Literature on cluster theory and cluster policy has been focused on the differences between mature industrial areas and innovative regions. Mature industrial areas are described as possessing little competence for innovation and lacking entrepreneurship to be transferred an innovative region, say, an innovative cluster. Old industrial regions are, however, rich in social capital, local networking, and regional institutionalization. This paper compares Buchon's mature industries with Daejon's bio-sector new start-ups in terms of innovative potential, socio-economic and cultural-economic mechanisms. Policy implications such as networking and business support systems on the differential types of industrial regions are offered.

본 논문의 목적은 아시아, 특히 한국의 외환위기 발생원인을 실증적으로 살펴보는 데 있다. 이를 위하여 본고는 먼저 103개 개발도상국의 1980~97년 동안의 자료를 이용하여 외환위기 발생의 일반적인 원인들을 추정한 다음, 그 결과에 기초하여 한국 외환위기의 발생원인을 살펴보는 접근방법을 취하고 있다. 본고에서는 외환위기의 발생원인을 크게 국내 기초경제여건과 유동성으로 나우어 살펴보고 있는데, 실증결과에 의하면 외환위기 국들은 공통적으로 외환위기 발생 이전에 성장률, 교역조건 등의 기초여건 악화나 외환보유고 등의 유동성 부족을 경험하는 것으로 나타난다. 따라서 외환위기의 발생은 sunspot과 같은 임의적인 요인에 의해 결정되며 미리 예측할 수 없다는 주장은 설득력이 없는 것으로 보인다. 한편 시대별로는, 80년대의 외환위기가 주로 환율 및 통화정책의 실패에 크게 기인한 반면, 90년대의 외환위기에는 실물부문의 악화와 유동성의 부족이 보다 중요한 역할을 한 것으로 추정된다. 이상의 결과에 기초하여 한국의 외환위기를 살펴보면, 먼저 한국의 사전적 외환위기 발생가능성은 결코 낮지 않았던 것으로 보인다. 오히려 96년 당시의 경제상황을 고려할 때 한국은 다른 아시아 외환위기국들보다 더 높은 정도의 외환위기 발생가능성을 내포하고 있었던 것으로 나타난다. 한편 외환위기의 원인면에서는 한국의 경우 다른 외환위기사례에 비하여 교역조건의 악화와 유동성의 부족이 상대적으로 중요한 역할을 한 것으로 나타난다. 따라서 한국의 외환위기는 기초여건(fundamental)의 악화와 유동성(liquidity)의 부족 모두에 기인한 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, trust in online transactions and corporate trust are most important at the corporate level as social overhead capital in commercial transactions using digital devices such as online, mobile, and SNS platforms. Therefore, this study used data from the Korea Consumer Agency's consumer policy indicators to identify the impact of digital consumption trust and corporate responsibility trust on the satisfaction of information and communication products and services. According to the analysis, trust in digital consumption conditions and responsibility of companies have a positive impact on satisfaction of information and communication devices and satisfaction of information and communication services. In addition, it was found that trust in corporate responsibility has a greater impact on satisfaction of information and communication devices and satisfaction of information and communication services than trust in digital consumption conditions. Theoretical and practical implications for these findings and suggestions for future research were presented.
