To find out the effects of preharvest sprouted degrees of barley on yield, grain quality and germination rate, various sprouted grains were planted. The grains sprouted upto 2 mm and 4mm of root lengths showed regerminating rates of 68% and 49% respectively, and those above 4mm of root length decreased seriously in regerminating rate. First of all, the PI (promptness index) of sprouted barley compared with that of intact barley decreased conspicuously even in 2mm of root length. Grain yield decreased inversely with the growth of root lengths of sprouted grains. The times required to polish the naked barley up to polishing yield of 72% and husked one upto that of 64% were shortened inversely with the root lengths of sprouted grains. The rate of split kernel against sound one after polishing increased greatly by 17.6% to 36% in sprouted barley compared to 2% to 3.5% of the control which presoaked in water for 2 hours. Whiteness indexes of polished kernels of the sprouted barley and the control were higher than that of intact one. The index, however, was lowered inversely with root lengths in sprouted barley.

As the damage caused by the abnormal climate due to climate change is increasing, the interest in resilience is increasing as a countermeasure to this. In this study, the resilience of Suwon city was examined and the plan to improve the resilience were derived against climate impacts such as drought, heatwave, and heavy rain. Urban resilience is divided into social resilience (e.g. vulnerable groups, access to health services, and training of human resources), economic resilience (e.g. housing stability, employment stability, income equality, and economic diversity), urban infrastructure resilience (e.g.residential vulnerability, capacity to accommodate victims, and sewage systems), and ecological resilience (e.g. protection resources, sustainability, and risk exposure). The study evaluated the urban resilience according to the selected indicators in local level. In this study, the planning elements to increase the resilience in the urban dimension were derived and suggested the applicability. To be a resilient city, the concept and value of resilience should be included in urban policy and planning. It is critical to monitor and evaluate the process made by the actions in order to continuously adjust the plans.

전 세계적으로 기후변화로 인한 기상재해의 피해가 매년 증가하고 있으며, 기후변화로 인한 시민들의 안전, 재산, 인명피해 또한 늘어나고 있다. 이러한 피해를 최소화하기 위해서는 도시지역을 중심으로 한 신뢰성 높은 미래 기후전망 기법이 필수적이며, 미래 기후전망을 바탕으로 하여 기후변화로 인한 향후 발생할 수 있는 위험성의 정도를 전망하여 적응대책을 수립할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 도시지역의 미래 기후전망 기법을 개발하여 서울시의 미래기후를 전망한다. 본 연구를 수행하기 위하여 먼저 IPCC 기후시나리오에 대한 조사를 수행하여 자료를 수집한다. 수집한 자료를 바탕으로 역학적 상세화와 통계적 상세화 기법을 이용하여 고해상도 기후 시나리오를 생산하였다. 역학적 상세화 기법은 A2시나리오의 ECHO-G/S에서 생산된 기후 시나리오를 이용하여 지역 기후모델인 RegCM3에 적용하여 상세화 과정을 수행하였다. RegCM3를 이용하여 60km로 상세화한 후에 one-way double-nested system을 구축하여 20km까지 상세화 하였다. 20km 해상도의 기후 시나리오는 서울시와 같은 좁은 지역의 기후를 분석하기에는 어려움이 있으므로, RegCM3에 사용할 수 있는 Sub-BATS라는 기법을 이용하여 5km의 고해상도 기후 시나리오를 생산하였다. 역학적 상세화 결과는 관측결과에 비해 과소 추정되는 경향이 있어, 편차보정을 통하여 관측값에 가까운 자료를 만들어 주었다. 역학적 상세화 결과를 분석한 결과, 기준기간에 비해 미래기간(S3)에는 전체적으로 약 4.9도의 기온상승과 강수량 증가가 나타났으며, 특히 9월에 가장 큰 상승폭을 나타내고 있었다. 강수량의 경우 증가 경향이 뚜렷이 나타나고 있었으며, 여름철에 큰 증가폭을 나타내고 있었다. 통계적 상세화 기법은 역학적 상세화 기법에서 사용된 ECHO-G/S를 포함한 13개의 GCM결과와 우리나라의 57개 지점에 대한 CSEOF기법을 이용하여 기후 시나리오를 생산하였다. 이 자료는 서울시에 대하여 하나의 지점밖에 존재하지 않아, 서울시내의 지역별 미래 기후전망에는 문제가 있었으므로, Delta method라는 기법을 이용하여 서울 및 인근지역의 AWS 35개 지점에 대하여 미래 기후시나리오를 생산하였다. 통계적 상세화 결과, 13개 GCM의 기온변화는 전체평균 약 3.1도 상승하였고, 겨울과 여름철의 변화폭이 가장 크며, 모델의 불확실성 또한 겨울과 여름에 가장 큰 특징을 가지고 있다. 강수량의 경우 MME에서는 약간의 상승은 나타나고 있었지만 모델간의 불확실성은 여름철에 크게 나타나고 있었다. 역학적 및 통계적 상세화 기후 시나리오(ECHO-G/S, A2)를 비교 분석한 결과, 기온은 역학적 상세화 결과가 약간 크게 나타났으며, 전체적으로 유사한 패턴을 보이고 있었다. 강수량 또한 역학적 상세화 결과가 크게 나타나고 있었다. 역학적 및 통계적 상세화 결과는 S1의 경우 유사한 특징을 보이고 있었지만 S3로 갈수록 차이가 크게 나타나고 있었다.

The public road construction projects awarded by the regional construction and management office, which is an affiliate of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, are managed by construction supervision officers. These officials frequently visit a large number of construction sites to conduct inspections and supervision tasks. Therefore, the site management efficiency is essential in terms of the time and money spent in travelling to the sites. The introduction of a site monitoring management system is considered necessary to minimize the number of site visits and enable remote monitoring of the construction progress to enhance the business efficiency of the construction supervision officers. In this study, a remote site monitoring system was constructed using web cameras for public road construction works. The trial applications were implemented by selecting ten constructions sites. The effectiveness of the system was analyzed to assess its applicability. In an assessment of the applicability of the verification results, remote site monitoring showed cost savings of approximately 35% compared to the existing site management. The guidelines for applying the site monitoring management system were provided, the introduction plan was investigated, and the improvement method was presented. The results showed that the system is likely to minimize the unnecessary site visits, remove the risk factors at vulnerable areas in the sites beforehand, and prevent a range of disasters and accidents. In addition, the quality of the infrastructures is likely to improve through the prevention of accidents and the elimination of substandard and faulty construction work.

Landslides, as a geological hazard, have caused extensive damage to property and sometimes result in loss of life. Thus, it is necessary to assess vulnerable areas for future possible landslides in order to mitigate the damage they cause. For this purpose, spatial data integration has been developed and applied to landslide hazard mapping. Among various models, this paper investigates and discusses the effectiveness of the Bayesian spatial data integration approach to landslide hazard mapping. In this study, several data sets related to landslide occurrences in Jangheung, Korea were constructed using GIS and then digitally represented using the likelihood ratio function. By computing the likelihood ratio, we obtained quantitative relationships between input data and landslide occurrences. The likelihood ratio functions were combined using the Bayesian combination rule. In order for predicted results to provide meaningful interpretations with respect to future landslides, we carried out validation based on the spatial partitioning of the landslide distribution. As a result, the Bayesian approach based on a likelihood ratio function can effectively integrate various spatial data for landslide hazard mapping, and it is expected that some suggestions in this study will be helpful to further applications including integration and interpretation stages in order to obtain a decision-support layer.

Landslide, one of the serious natural disasters, has Incurred a large loss of human and material resources. Recently, many forecasting or alarm systems based on various kinds of measuring equipment have been developed to reduce the damage of landslide. However, only a few of these equipments are guaranteed to evaluate the safety of whole side of land slope with their accessibility to the slope. In this study, we performed some experiments to evaluate the applicability of a terrestrial LiDAR as a surveying tool to measure the displacement of a land slope surface far a slope collapsing protection system. In the experiments, we had applied a slope stability method to a land slope and then forced to this slope with a load increasing step by step. In each step, we measured the slope surface with both a total station and a terrestrial LiDAR simultaneously. As the result of Slope Fracturing analysis using all targets, the LiDAR system showed that three was 1cm RMSE on X-axis, irregularity errors on Y-axis and few errors on Z-axis compare with Total Station. As the result of Slope Fracturing analysis using continuous targets, the pattern of Slope Fracturing was different according to the location of continuous targets and we could detect a continuous change which couldn't be found using Total station. The accuracy of the LiDAR data was evaluated to be comparable to that of the total station data. We found that a LiDAR system was appropriate to measuring the behaviour of land slope. The LiDAR data can cover the whole surface of the land slope, whereas the total station data are available on a small number of targets. Moreover, we extracted more detail information about the behavior of land slope such as the volume and profile changes using the LiDAR data.

Disaster is when, where, and how uncertainties, which might occur. Thus, for disaster response and management at the national and local governments have been made. Korea has established the Disaster and Safety Management Basic Act. Disaster Management has been made at the national level which is to prevent disasters and countries in order to protect citizens from harm and dangerous. Korean Disaster management system is well equipped with advanced countries. The Organization of national and local government are well-maintained substantially for the disaster activities and step-by-step manuals activities. Despite that uncertainty, due to the nature of the disaster, while infrequent, causing large-scale tragedy. Minimize the damage of the disaster as a disaster management efforts are needed. Normally a real disaster, a disaster situation, efforts are to be utilized efficiently, the effectiveness of the system will appear. But while the number of large-scale disasters, including the sinking of Sewol this time for the government and local governments see the response process, the system did not work and the manual existed in the cabinet. There was no Prevention and preparation activities, there was no integrated organization for the response management with expertise in the professional staff. Whenever a large disaster raised repeatedly as a problem, but there was a substantial change in formal but no improvement. It will not reduce the damage if the disaster management is not prepared for a revolutionary turning point.

Despite the facts that navigation technology and educational programs were developed, and that maritime law has been enforced strictly, the number of maritime accidents has not dropped significantly. Accident prevention is emphasized because of the extreme life, property, and environmental losses that accompany maritime accidents. Even though there are a variety of preventive activities, their performance is not satisfactory. In order to promote preventive activities and to organize safety management, a Preventive Index of Ship Accident(PISA) and a Preventive Level of Ship Accident(PLSA) which are abstracted from the statistical data of ship accidents (2009~2013) are proposed. The survey module by which these variables can be calculated is composed of preventive domains such as education, engineering, enforcement and information, and is applied for the preventive indexes measurement of cargo, passenger, tanker, tugboat and fishery ships. We compared and analyzed measured result with statistical accident rates and cases to confirm the index utilities. It was found that there is some correlation between the index value and the ship accident rate. It is expected that this index will become useful to evaluate a preventive status for the prevention of ship accidents and for the maritime safety culture.

Using survey data of selected 1,349 individuals nationwide in Korea, we measure the influencing factors for the acceptance of nuclear power and estimates the probability of acceptance under several scenarios with different percentages of monetary compensation. Results of panel probit demonstrate that nuclear risk aversion tendency was found to be higher in case of female, younger age, past experience of extreme event such as an earthquake. However, the residents' residency nearby the nuclear power plant was not related to the risk-aversion tendency. In addition, we found that the nuclear acceptance is improved when the monetary compensation rate is increased. Although the policy demand intended to reduce GHG emissions in South Korea, the expansion of nuclear power is not be easy due to the occurrence of recent strong earthquakes because the risk attitude of an individual is influenced by subjective assessments formed through direct and indirect experiences of natural disasters such as an earthquake. Our results suggest that the opposition to construction of nuclear power plant is expected to be further intensified especially when combined with the experiences of threatening earthquakes. As a result, the debate and policy conflicts of nuclear power plants will consistently continue and large social costs are apparent for the acceptance of nuclear power plant.

Coastal disasters have become one of the most important issues in every coastal country. In Korea, coastal disasters such as storm surge, sea level rise and extreme weather have placed many coastal regions in danger of being exposed or damaged during subsequent storms and gradual shoreline retreat. A storm surge is an onshore gush of water associated with a tow pressure weather system, typically in typhoon season. However, it is very difficult to predict storm surge height and inundation due to the irregularity of the course and intensity of a typhoon. To provide a new scheme of typhoon damage prediction model, the scenario which changes the central pressure, the maximum wind radius, the track and the proceeding speed by corresponding previous typhoon database, was composed. The virtual typhoon scenario database was constructed with individual scenario simulation and evaluation, in which it extracted the result from the scenario database of information of the hereafter typhoon and information due to climate change. This virtual typhoon scenario database will apply damage prediction information about a typhoon. This study performed construction and analysis of the simulation system with the storm surge/coastal inundation model at Masan coastal areas, and applied method for predicting using the scenario of the storm surge.
