The purposes of this study were to analyze high school students' understanding about the Earth system and systems thinking process, and to develop science writing programs designed to assess students' understanding about themes of Earth Science such as global warming, volcanoes, and desertification. A total of 8 $11^{th}$ grade students from general high schools participated in the writing program and draw the causal maps. The methods of this study are as follows. First, DAET-C was used to investigate the way of students' understanding about the Earth systems. What the students' best understood was the component of the Earth systems followed by the interaction of the Earth systems and the scientific literacy of Earth science. Second, feedback circulations on the causal maps were found in four students in global warming section, one student in volcanic eruption section, and four students in desertification section, which means that systems thinking was not largely employed by the students. Consequently, the student participants understood that the global change was happening in correlation with complex concepts and factors, but they were short of using systems thinking in their science study. Therefore, the result of this study suggests that more studies be conducted to develop systems thinking in Earth Science learning through science writing programs.

Using six preservice teachers as subjects, this was purpose to research about concepts in understanding carbon cycle, which of concepts were related to the conception of the system, and finally whether or not the systems thinking was sufficiently around carbon cycle. To achieve this study purpose , an instrument related to carbon cycle was developed and administered to the six teachers. The study found that a total of 42 conceptions within the system were concepts related to carbon cycle. The consisted of 15 conceptions in atmosphere, 11 in atmosphere 9 in hydrosphere, and 7 in lithosphere. In aspect of applying the system thinking, 4 subjects who couldn't compose the feedback loop in their causal map failed to apply this type of thinking. The other two who applied systems thinking had 2 and 1 feedback loop each, in their causal maps. But, one of the feedback loop from the subject who made two was based on unscientific reasoning. As a result, the subjects had lower understanding of concepts related to carbon cycle in lithosphere than in atmosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere. Futhermore, the subjects' application of the earth systems thinking on carbon was at a low standard.

이 연구의 목적은 귀추적 탐구 방법과 관련된 전략들을 적용하여 지구온난화에 관련되어 측정된 다양한 유형의 데이터를 관련된 사실, 원리, 법칙, 선행 연구 결과 등을 토대로 지구통합적인 관점과 지구계를 구성하는 요소들 간의 상호작용과 영향을 중심으로 재해석하고 이해하는 것이다. 지구과학(지구시스템과학)의 학문 성격, 최근 동향, 본성 및 탐구 대상의 특성에 대한 내용과 지구과학의 본질적 속성에 잘 부합하는 귀추적 탐구 방법에 대해 학습한 후, 학생들은 인천 및 다양한 지역의 기상과 해양 자료 분석을 통하여 관찰되는 현상(결과)의 원인과 영향을 파악하는 연구 활동을 하였다. 이 과정에서 귀추적 탐구를 충분히 이해할 수 있도록, 과학 탐구에서 귀추적 탐구 방법을 사용하는 과학자들의 예시와 모의 활동을 통하여, 귀추적 탐구 방법에 사용되는 다양한 사고 전략(예, 데이터의 재구성 전략, 유추 전략, 개념적 결합 전략 등)에 대한 예시를 경험하였다. 학생들은 지구온난화에 관련되어 나타나는 현상(조사된 사항 포함)과 영향에 대해 지구시스템적으로 이해하고 재해석하기 위해 지구시스템을 구성하는 요소(예, 수권, 대기권)와 관련된 데이터 정보를 검색하고 수집하였다. 1) 지구시스템과 지구온난화에 대한 조사하고, 2) 지구온난화 및 기후변화의 변동성 확인한 후, 3) 지구온난화와 관련된 선행 연구 결과 분석하였다. 또한, 지구과학의 본질적 속성에 잘 부합하는 귀추적 탐구 방법의 이해와 적용하는 과정에서 1) 지구 온난화 및 기후 변화의 실태 파악하고, 2) 인천 지역의 월별, 계절별 기온 변화 분석 및 경향 조사(탐색: 연구문제 규명)한 후, 3) 인천과 속초 지역의 기온, 수온의 변화 추이 및 분석 (조사: 원인 조사 과정)하였다. 4) 속초 지역의 평균해면기압변화 추이 및 분석한 후, 그 결과를 토대로 5) 문헌조사 및 선행연구 결과 분석을 통한 지구 온난화의 영향을 미치는 요인 재검토 및 확인(선택 및 설명)하여, 6) 인천지역과 속초지역의 지구온난화 원인 분석 및 문제점 보완(설명)하기 위해 7) 겨울철 지구온난화가 더 심각한지 부산지역과 포항지역의 자료 분석을 통하여 연구 결과 내용의 보완 (추가 조사 및 설명)한 후, 8) 분석 결과 및 해석 내용을 전문가와 상담 실시하였다. 이 연구는 연구를 진행하면서 얻은 결과를 교육적 측면에서 다시 정리해 보면 다음과 같다. 우선, 학생들의 지구환경적 문제 해결 과정에서 귀추적 탐구 방법을 활용한 문제 해결 능력을 향상시켰다. 아울러, 지구과학의 탐구 본성, 최근 동향, 탐구대상의 특성 등의 학습을 통해 지구과학도로서의 기본적인 소양과 자질 향상에 기여하였으며, 사회과학의 연구방법을 순수과학연구에 접목하여 과학자로서의 문제해결 능력과 시스템 사고력을 향상시켰다.

The Modem Geodesy monitors physical and geometrical shape and motion of the Earth and, more importantly, its temporal variations with unprecedented precision. It provides accurate and stable reference frames for Earth observations in the Space era. Furthermore, with an aid of interdisciplinary approaches, it also traces the causes of the variations in shape and motion of the Earth and eventually contributes to a better understanding of the Earth system. The International Association of Geodesy (IAG) has established the Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS) to integrate the multitude of geodetic tools and tried to contribute to the management of global environmental changes as a partner of the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS). Here we introduce the contribution of geodesy to the various fields of Earth Science by focusing on GGOS and encourage interdisciplinary researches.

The purposes of this study are: (1) to develop educational program designed to improve high school students' knowledge integration and their system thinking skills about global warming and (2) to identify the change of students' system thinking level. The developed program was implemented to twenty seven high school students, and six students grouped into three highs and three lows in their performance were selected to analyze their level of system thinking. The word association, casual map and drawing were used to measure and identify any significant change. As a result, the low level system thinking group improved their system thinking skills for global warming and the earth and sub-systems after the intervention. However, participants' misconception remained the same. And the high level systems thinking group showed more organize system thinking skills about a global warming topic. It is suggested that more educational programs be developed on various topics in order for high school students to improve their systems thinking skills as well as knowledge integration of earth systems and earth environment in school curriculum.

Microplastics have arisen as a worldwide environmental concern, becoming ubiquitous in all marine compartments, and various researches on monitoring marine microplastics are being actively conducted worldwide. Recently, application of a remote detection technology that enables large-scale real-time observation to marine plastic monitoring has been conducted overseas. However, in South Korea, there is little information linking remote detection to marine microplastics and some field studies have demonstrated remote detection of medium- and large-sized marine plastics. This study introduces research cases with remote detection of marine plastics in South Korea and overseas, investigates potential feasibility of using the remote detection technology to marine microplastic monitoring, and suggests some future works to monitor marine microplastics with the remote detection.
