Korea has been one of the top ranked countries in the per capita and total consumption of Cu, Zn, Pb, and Ni since economic development based on manufacturing industries. The current instability of mineral demand and supply in Korea is likely to continue or exacerbate in accordance with economic growth in developing countries such as BRICs. Korea needs to increase the self-development portion of strategic mineral resources including Cu, Zn, Pb, and Ni. Our analysis of mineral demand and supply data predicts a long-run instability of supply and demand for main minerals used in the Korean manufacturing industries, and suggests a long range government policy for stable supply of core mineral resources.

기후변화는 물 관리 측면에서 많은 변화를 일으키는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 주로 강우의 패턴을 변화시키며, 가용수자원의 지역적 편중을 심화시킨다. 기후변화에 적응하며 안정적이고 균등한 용수확보를 위해서는 홍수와 가뭄을 고려한 연속적인 물 순환 해석기술이 필요하다. 강우유출분석은 강우사상에 대한 수문순환과정을 통해 유출량을 산출하는 것으로, 주로 직접유출과 중간유출이 이에 해당된다. 강우발생 이후 무강우기간에 대해서는 기저시간 이후에 발생되는 유출량의 정량적 산출이 필요하다. 기저유출은 강우 발생 시점에 급격히 발생하기보다는 선행강우에 따른 유역 내 지하수위 분포와 대수층의 특성, 하천수위에 따라 다양한 패턴으로 나타나기 때문에 지하수대의 수리학적 성분들을 반영할 수 있어야 한다. 이를 위해서는 강우유출모의 시 지표유출량 산정과 지하수유동해석을 통한 기저유출량 산정이 동시에 이루어져야 한다. 최근 국내외에서는 다양한 형태의 수문모형과 MODFLOW를 연계한 장기유출분석에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서 활용한 K-DRUM(K-water Distribution Runoff Model)은 K-water에서 자체 개발한 물리적 기반의 분포형 강우유출모형으로 강우유출, 유사, 기초수질항목에 대한 3차원 분석이 가능하다. 본 모형의 A층(표층)은 지표유출을 고려한 운동파법이 적용되었고, B층과 C층(중간층), D층(지하수층)은 선형저류법이 적용되었다. MODFLOW(A Modular Three-Dimensional Finite-Difference Ground Water Flow Model)는 1980년대 USGS(United State Geolog ical Survey)에서 개발된 가장 범용적으로 사용되는 지하수유동모형이며, 모듈화 된 구조를 갖고 있어 다양한 패키지 중 필요로 하는 기능을 독립적으로 모의할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 향후 기후변화에 따른 강우의 불확실성에 대비한 유역의 장기 물순환 해석을 위해 강우유출모형인 K-DRUM과 지하수유동모형인 MODFLOW를 연계하고자한다. 연계방법은 K-DRUM에서 계산된 D층으로 침루되는 양을 MODFLOW의 함양량으로 적용하고, MODFLOW에서 산출된 기저유량을 K-DRUM의 하천유출에 적용하는 것이다. 본 연구의 성과를 갈수기 유출해석에 적용하면 정확성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study addresses the management performance of the retail industry in Korea. The Non-store e-commerce business, consisting of TV home shopping and online shopping, grew very fast during the 2000s. For roughly six years in the 2010s, the diversification of online shopping business models, intensifying competition, and the proliferation of competition accelerated the entry of offline shopping retailers. During the analysis period from 2001 to 2016, the performance of the Non-­store e-commerce business was statistically better than that of the offline shopping retail business, department stores, general retailers, and small­-sized retailers. As expected, a significant difference between performance and some of the indicators of growth and activity could be seen because of the capital and operating structure of the retail industry. In particular, the Non-store e-commerce businesses have diverse sales media and heterogeneous business models. In this study, we have presented the significance of the differences in the indicators of operating profit and inventory turnover, as well as the discussion required for managing in the future.

This study aimed to assess trends in the prevalence, treatment, and control of diabetes according to the socio-economic level in Korean adults aged ${\geq}30$ years, using the 2007-2017 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data. Socio-economic status was assessed based on the household income. Multivariable logistic regression and predictive margins were used to evaluate the adjusted proportion of diabetes prevalence, awareness, treatment, and adequate glycemic control. During 2007-2017, the socio-economic inequalities on diabetes prevalence were observed in both men and women. However, the gradient of inequality increased only in men (p for interaction=0.034). Diabetes awareness, treatment, and control did not show socio-economic inequalities or increasing gradients in both sexes. Monitoring of these trends should be continued, and further research on effective interventions is needed.

The purpose of this study was to select the sectoral vulnerable areas index in welfare field and analyze the socially vulnerable areas from comprehensive analysis. For this study, preceding research and theoretical background were reviewed. Through this, we selected for the analysis index and criteria, and data corresponding to the index are collected. Based on the index and criteria, the data analysis was performed in Seoul Metropolitan City selected as the spatial extent of this study. From the results of analysis, the sectoral lower rank 10% of social vulnerable areas was determined. In addition, Junggu, Yongsangu, and Seodaemungu from the comprehensive analysis of individual vulnerable areas were derived as a final vulnerable areas. In particular, Junggu was weak in all sectors; Yongsangu was in the medical sector; and Seodaemungu was poor in housing and education. Lower vulnerability index of all sectors (energy, housing, medical, transportation, and education) in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd residential areas by examining use zoning was showed. From the results of this study, we can expect time and labor saving of policy support in public sector.

In order to solve the problem of how to estimate the residential segregation, the Spatial Concentration Index(SCI) and Location quotient(LQ) are able to be one of alternative methods, and a comprehensive analysis of the residential segregation phenomenon in the seoul metropolitan area is the aim of the study. The results of SCI show that residential concentration areas in low-rent are some Gyeonggi-do's downtown(Bucheon-si, Suwon-si) as well as rural and urban-rural complex outskirts of the metropolitan area. The results of changing of SCI from 2011 to 2014, downward changes appeared thirteen districts and upward changes appeared fourteen districts. Especially downward change district was Sosa-gu, Bucheon-si and upward change district was Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si. In conclusion, that high rent level groups are more concentration on specific area than low rent level groups. By decreasing residential concentration districts in low-rent level group, 'diversity' districts have been increasing in seoul metropolitan but the phenomenon of residential concentration in high and low level group have been being intensified. These results could be confirmed by quantitative through LQ. Methodologically LQ would strengthen the explanatory power of SCI, and ongoing research of SCI in conjunction with other quantitative methods will need.

Social class has become a major focus of research in the field of Western psychology due to its critical impact on human life. The Korean scholarship in psychology, however, has paid very little attention to the issue of social class despite the deepening of social stratification in the country; and the concepts and measurement they used were typically borrowed from sociology. In this study, I discussed what social class means and how it should be measured in order to emphasize the importance of the concept and its related issues. To this end, I examined a variety of theoretical backgrounds on the measurement of social class and the concept of socioeconomic status (SES)-a term commonly used as a synonym for social class. This study divided the method of measuring social class into objective social class and subjective social class, and outlined the characteristics of each approach and their main indicators. Finally, I assessed the recent trend in the Korean psychology on social class measurement. Among the 23 studies I have found, 65.2% used the objective social class index; and education was the objective indicator they most frequently employed, followed by income and occupation. Social stratification identity was used in all seven studies that applied subjective social class. And seven different words to describe social class was found. Based on these results, I concluded that there should be a call for more direct research on social class variables. In addition, I suggest that 'social class', instead of socioeconomic status, should be used as a preferred term in the future studies and propose a few notes on how to use the objective indicators and subjective social class measurement.

Various methods have been suggested in developing the useful leading indicators to predict the actual realizations when time laps exist between policy plannings and future events. The recent economic crisis could have been relived if the information necessary to respond to the future evolutionary process is provided in advance. As the relations between the financial variables and the real economic activity become unstable because of the changes in the financial environment, this study attempts to estimate the capabilities of various internal and external term spreads in predicting the future business trend, followed by comparison and evaluation.

본 연구는 SWSI를 보완한 식을 이용하여 금강유역에 대해 농업가뭄지수(ASWSI)를 산정하고 농업가뭄 분포도를 작성하여 가뭄지수에 의한 농업용 저수지 유역의 가뭄을 평가하는 방법을 제시하였다. SWSI는 유역 단위의 수문학적 가뭄을 평가하기 위하여 개발된 지표로서 융설량, 강수량, 하천유출량, 저수지 저류량이 입력인자로서 유역별, 계절별로 입력인자를 선택적으로 적용하여 유역의 수문학적 가뭄을 평가한다. 본 연구에서는 가뭄에 영향을 미치는 인자를 강수량, 저수지 유입량 및 저수량으로 결정하고 ASWSI의 입력인자를 저수지 상류유역은 강수량과 유입량, 하류지역은 강수량과 저수량을 사용하였다. 금강유역 내 천만톤 이상의 대표 저수지 7개를 선정하여 16개년(1991-2006) 동안의 저수지 상 하류 유역의 농업가뭄지수를 산정하였으며, 산정된 결과를 토대로 다중회귀분석을 실시하여 금강유역 용수구역별 농업가뭄지수 분포도를 작성하였다. 적용결과를 과거 가뭄사상에 검증한 결과, 1994년 1, 2차 가뭄 피해기간인 7월과 9월에 대해서 심한가뭄 상태로 표현하였고, 1995년 가장 가뭄이 심화되었던 6월의 가뭄에 대해서도 심한가뭄으로 표현하였으며, 2001년에도 5월의 최대 용수부족 상황에 대해서 심한가뭄을 표현하였다. 이처럼 ASWSI가 실제 가뭄 발생 현상과 일치함을 확인하였으며, 농업가뭄을 표현하는데 있어 적합한 것으로 판단된다.
