This paper describes theoretical approach methodology for the Probability based risk Evaluation Techniques (PET) to monitor the risk levels of small-sized sea floater as like a yacht pier. The risk decision-making process by risk criteria with five-step scales is the core concepts of PET. These five-step scales are calculated from cumulative probability distribution of response functions for the sea floater motions using closed-form expressions. In addition, The risk decision-making process of PET with the risk criteria is proposed in this work. To verify the usability of PET, simulation experiments are carried out using mimic signals with the electrical specifications of ADIS16405 sensor that is to be use as measurement tool for the floater motions. As results from experiments, the risk evaluation error by PET shows 0.38 levels in maximum 5.0 levels. These results clearly shown that the proposed PET can be use as the monitoring techniques.

본질적으로 복잡하고 다양한 특성을 가지는 우리나라(도시, 농어촌, 도서산간, 섬 등)의 물 공급 시스템은 생활수준의 향상, 기후변화 및 가뭄위기, 소비환경 중심의 요구와 한정된 수자원을 잘 활용하기 위한 운영 및 관리가 매우 복잡하다. 이로 인한 수자원 고갈과 가뭄위기 등에 관련한 대책 및 방안으로 대체수자원인 지하수 활용방안들이 제시되고 있다. 따라서, 물 관리 시스템과 관련한 디지털 기술은 오늘날 플랫폼과 디지털 트윈의 도입을 통해 네트워크와 가상현실 세계의 연결이 통합되어진 4차 산업혁명 사업이 현실화되고 있다. 물 관리 시스템에 사용된 새로운 디지털 기술 "BDA(Big Data Analytics), CPS(Cyber Physical System), IoT(Internet of Things), CC(Cloud Computing), AI(Artificial Intelligence)" 등의 성장이 증가함에 따라 가뭄대응 위기와 도시 지하수 물 순환 시스템 운영이 증가하는 소비자 중심의 수요를 충족시키기 위해서는 지속가능한 지하수 공급을 효과적으로 관리되어야 한다. 4차 산업혁명과 관련한 기술성장이 증가함으로 인한 물 부문은 시스템의 지속가능성을 향상시키기 위해 전체 디지털화 단계로 이동하고 있다. 이러한 디지털 전환의 핵심은 데이터에 관한 것이며, 이를 활용하여 가치 창출을 위해서 "Digital Groundwater Technology/Twin(DGT)"를 극대화하는 방식으로 제고해야 한다. 현재 당면하고 있는 기후위기에 따른 가뭄, 홍수, 녹조, 탁수, 대체수자원 등의 수자원 재해에 대한 다양한 대응 방안과 수자원 확보 기술이 논의되고 있다. 이에 따른 "물 순환 시스템"의 이해와 함께 문제해결 방안도출을 위하여 이번 "기획 세션"에서는 지하수 수량 및 수질, 정수, 모니터링, 모델링, 운영/관리 등의 수자원 데이터의 플랫폼 동시성 구축으로부터 역동적인 "DGT"을 통한 디지털 트윈화하여, 지표수-토양-지하수 분야의 특화된 연직 프로파일링 관측기술을 다각도로 모색하고자 한다. "Digital Groundwater(DG)"는 지하수의 물 순환, 수량 및 수질 관리, 지표수-지하수 순환 및 모니터링, 지하수 예측 모델링 통합연계를 위해 지하수 플랫폼 동시성, ChatGPT, CPS 및 DT 등의 복합 디지털화 단계로 나가고 있다. 복잡한 지하환경의 이해와 관리 및 보존을 위한 지하수 네트워크에서 수량과 수질 데이터를 수집하기 위한 스마트 지하수 관측기술 개발은 큰 도전이다. 스마트 지하수 관측기술은 BD분석, AI 및 클라우드 컴퓨팅 등의 디지털 기술에 필요한 획득된 데이터 분석에 사용되는 알고리즘의 복잡성과 데이터 품질에 따라 영향을 미칠 수 있기 때문이다. "DG"는 지하수의 정보화 및 네트워크 운영관리 자동화, 지능화 등을 위한 디지털 도구를 활용함으로써 지표수-토양층-지하수 네트워크 통합관리에 대한 비전을 만들 수 있다. 또한, DGT는 지하수 관측센서의 1차원 데이터 융합을 이용한 지하수 플랫폼 동시성과 디지털 트윈을 연계할 수 있다.

Cypripedium japonicum Thunb. is an endemic plant in East Asia, distributed only in Korea, China, and Japan. At the global level, the IUCN Red List evaluates it as "Endangered Species (EN)," and at the national level in Korea, it is evaluated as "Critically Endangered Species (CR)." In this study, we investigated the characteristics of the age structure and the sustainability of the population based on the data obtained by demographic monitoring conducted for seven years in the natural habitat. C. japonicum habitats were observed in 7 regions of Korea (Pochoen, Gapyeong, Hwacheon, Chuncheon, Yeongdong, Muju, Gwangyang), and 4,356 individuals in 15 subpopulations were identified. The population size and structure differed from region to region, and artificial management had a very important effect on the size and structural change of the population. Population viability analysis (PVA) based on changes in the number of individuals of C. japonicum showed a very diverse tendency by region. And the probability of population extinction in the next 100 years was 0.00% for Pocheon, 10.90% for Gwangyang, 24.05% for Chuncheon, and 79.50% for Hwacheon. Since the above monitored study sites were located within the conservation shelters, which restricted access by humans, unauthorized collection of C. japonicum, the biggest threat to the species, was not reflected in the individual viability. So, the risk of extinction in Korea is expected to be significantly higher than that estimated in this study. Therefore, it is necessary to reflect population information in several regions that may represent various threats to determine the extinction risk of the C. japonicum population objectively. In the future, we should expand the demographic monitoring of the C. japonicum population known in Korea.

To achieve the national goal of "2050 Carbon Neutrality" in the era of the climate crisis, it is important to support the decarbonization of ports, which are the vital node of the global supply chain. Following the establishment of the concept of port's decarbonzation, this study reviewed the obstacles and solutions to port decarbonization through literature research. Furthermore, the goals and strategies for decarbonization implementation of world major ports were examined through case analysis, and the level of decarbonization implementation of the five Korean major ports was quantitatively evaluated using a performance-based score measurement method. As a result of the analysis, the level of decarbonization of Korean ports is generally far behind that of advanced countries. In particular, measures for environment-friendly inland transportation, future alternative fuel bunkering facilities, and various market-based incentive policies are needed. As a policy task for the decarbonization of Korean ports, first, the necessity of establishing a emission inventory, monitoring, and reporting system and the disclosure of related information, second, the mixing strategy of various greenhouse gas reduction measures, and third, the increase in the proportion of renewable energy at ports were suggested.

The purpose of this study is to develope a forecasting model to implement short-term Congestion Management Program (CMP) based on TDM strategies in Seoul. The CMP is composed of three elements: 1) setting a goal of short-term traffic management. 2) developing a model to forecast the impacts of TDM alternatives, and 3) finding TDM measures to achieve the goal To Predict the impacts of TDM alternatives, a model called SECOMM (SEoul COngestion Management Model) is developed. The model assumes that trip generation and distribution are not changing in a short term, and that only mode split and traffic assignment are affected by TDM. The model includes the parameter values calibrated by a discrete mode choice model, and roadway and transit networks with 1,020 zones. As a TDM measure implement, it affects mode choice behavior first and then the speeds of roadway network. The chanced speed again affects the mode choice behavior and the roadway speeds. These steps continue until the network is equilibrated. The study recommends that CMP be introduced in Seoul, and that road way conditions be monitored regularly to secure the prediction accuracy of SECOMM. Also, TDM should be the major Policy tools in removing short-term congestion problems in a big city.

The Ministry of Environment (ME) is planning to adopt in 2020 the IUCN regional Red List for "Guidelines for listing and delisting rare & endangered species and management of endangered Species System". The ME designated 377 species of vascular plants on the regional Red List. In a previous study it had been suggested that 103 species from this list are candidates for the regional Red List. With respect to a possible Red List, we assessed 59 species (after excluding 34 additional NA species and ten endemic species). These assessments indicated that 16 species are at the "threatened" level. Of those, one species is Critically Endangered, ten are Endangered, and five are Vulnerable. A further four species are classified as Near Threatened, 30 as Of Least Concern, and nine as Data Deficient. We found that most of the assessments proposed by the Ministry of Environment were not supported by scientific data, including quantitative geographic data (over 70%) in Criteria B. In order to determine the endangered species belonging to the orchid family, it is necessary to obtain records of illegal activities or data on overcollection. The current problem with the Ministry of Environment Red List has been the lack of management of scientific data on species showing a trend in decreasing population in the mid- to long-term; thus, there is a lack of critical resources for policy-makers. The ME legally designated categories and assessment, and the lack of expertise in failing to comply with the legal law by itself. The key to presenting an accurate overview of the state of Korean flora is to fill the information gaps with respect to significant geographical and taxonomical biases in the quality and quantity of data. By regularly updating the qualified data, we will be able to track the changes in the conservation status of the flora and inform the necessary conservation policies.

A total of 13,000 individuals of Dendrobium moniliforme (L.) Sw. artificially propagated in laboratories and greenhouses were restored in their natural habitat of Bogildo Island, Wandogun, in the southern part of Korea in June of 2013. The growing conditions of the individuals were monitored for two years. The parental individuals for the restoration were obtained from a wild population in southern Korea, from which seeds were produced via artificial crossings. These seeds were germinated and cultivated in growing media and two-year-old plants were then grown in greenhouse beds. The genetic diversity among the propagated individuals was confirmed by examining DNA sequences of five regions of the chloroplast genome and the nuclear ITS region. The diversity values were as high as the average values of natural populations. All propagated individuals were transplanted into two different sites on Bogildo by research teams with local residents and national park rangers. After restoration, we counted and measured the surviving individuals, vegetative propagated stems, and growth rates in June of both 2014 and 2015. There was no human interference, and 97% of the individuals survived. The number of propagules increased by 227% in two years. In contrast, the average length of the stems decreased during the period. In addition, different survival and propagation rates were recorded depending on the host plants and the restored sites. The shaded sides of rock cliffs and the bark of Quercus salicina showed the best propagation rates, followed by the bark of Camellia japonica. A few individuals of D. moniliforme successfully flowered, pollinated, and fruited after restoration. Overall, our monitoring data over two years indicate that the restored individuals were well adapted and vigorously propagated at the restored sites. In order to prevent human disturbance of the restored sites, a CCTV monitoring system powered by a solar panel was installed after the restoration. In addition, a human surveillance system is operated by national park rangers with local residents.
