This study analysed the income-related health inequality of the aged in Korea applied to EQ-5D. Two decompositions were used in analysis. One was the decomposition of income-related health inequality into six different dimensions of EQ-5D, and the other was to decompose it by sub-group such as sex, region, existence of spouse. The results are summarized as follows. First, the health concentration index(CI) of the aged was .0254, which meant that there were pro-rich inequality in elderly people's health levels. The same patterns were also seen in the analysis of different dimensions of EQ-5D such as mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Second, mobility accounted for 35.8% of total EQ-5D score, most contributing to CI of the dimensions of EQ-5D. The CIs by the dimensions ranged from .0091 for mobility to .0013 for self-care. Third, The decompositions by sub-groups showed that the contributions of sex, region, and existence of spouse to health inequality was similar to each other, all of three sub-groups accounted for 10 % of inequality respectively. Fourth, the inequality within group was higher in female group, rural area, and the aged without spouse. The average health level of these groups was lower than that of the other ones, too. These facts indicated that old women, the aged without spouse, and the elderly in rural area were the most vulnerable groups in health problems. Therefore, it is necessary to pay more attention to health problems of these groups in the policy making of health security and social welfare services.

In the past, when research and development(R&D) resources were absolutely scarce, the so-called 'choice and concentration' strategy of national R&D projects has been persuasive. Under the current situation where various actors such as GRIs(Government-funded Research Institutes) and universities supported by more abundant R&D resources conduct national R&D projects, this strategy cannot be applied without distinction. In order to see how the strategy has worked, this paper analyzes the concentration of research funds allocated to actors performing national R&D projects. Concentration is measured based on the amount of research funds supported by government from 2002 to 2016 using the Theil index to break down the concentration of individual actors in the overall national R&D project. The results from the Theil index were compared with concentrations using the Gini coefficient, a widely known indicator. As a result, the Theil index could be used to analyze the concentration and sub-components' contribution such as universities and GRIs that make up the entire national R&D system. The results also showed GRIs had the highest concentration, followed by universities, but their concentration has been somewhat reduced compared to 10 years ago. On the other hand, small-sized companies have maintained a certain level, although they are not highly concentrated. In other words, universities and GRIs tend to reduce the gap in the allocation of research funds among institutions, while small-sized companies tend to distribute them evenly.

강우의 시간분포는 다양한 시간규모에 걸쳐 프랙털 또는 멀티프랙털 특성을 가지고 있음이 알려졌다. 기존의 연구는 주로 시간단위 이상의 프랙털 특성에 관한 것이었다. 실제로 극한 홍수를 가져오는 집중호우는 짧은 시간 규모에서 발생함에도, 이것에 대해서는 관측 자료가 제한되어 극소수의 실험적 연구만 가능했다. 본 연구에서는 기상청에서 제공한 고해상도(1분 단위) ASOS(Automated Synoptic Observation System) 자료를 이용하여, 강우 사상 안에서의 프랙털 특성을 분석해보았다. 대부분의 사상에서 단일 멱함수보다는 2개의 멱함수로 나누어지는 것이 밝혀졌으며, 나뉘는 시간 규모(T*)는 $3{\times}10$ 분으로 파악되었다. 이 시간 규모는 한 단위의 집중호우를 가져올 수 있는 구름크기의 물리적 상한과 관련이 있는 것으로 보인다. T*보다 작은 시간 규모에서의 멱함수 지수는 그 이후의 값보다 대체로 작은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 호우가 집중되는 기간의 변동성이, 강수가 물리적 한계에 도달한 이후보다 훨씬 작기 때문으로 보인다. 구체적인 멱함수의 지수는 강수의 발생과정과도 관련이 있을 것으로 추정된다.

This study decomposed Concentration Index(CI) and Hiwv Index(HI) of medical care utilization by subgroups: sex, age group, and region. CI and HI were decomposed into "the between group" component, "within group" component, and a residual. The results of analysis are summarized as follows; First, there was no influence of sex on the equity of medical care utilization measured by the numbers of visiting clinic. However, "within group" component of female explained .0441 among HI, .1035. This means that poor women's underutilization of medical care is the important factor in determining its degree of equity. Second, age groups had a decisive effect on the equity of medical care utilization measured by the numbers of visiting clinic. they explained -.0085 among HI, -.0170. Third, internal equality within elderly group was the most important factor in determining HI measured by the medical care cost. Finally, "within group" component of urban area explained .0535 amomg HI, ,1035 measured by medical care cost. This indicated that the urban poor's underutilization of medical care was very important factor in explaining its degree of equity. There was the poor's underutilization of medical care within the groups as female, the elderly, and urban areas. This significantly explained the equity of medical care costs.

VHVI 수첨분해 기유는 자동차와 산업분야에서 시장을 형성하고 있다. VHVI 기유에 대한 응용분야로 큰 시장으로서 산업용 초 고점도지수 유압작동유로의 응용분야가 있긴 하지만 본고에서는 모터오일에 집중하여 설명하였다. 고점도지수 유압작동유는 현재 전통적인 파라핀계 기유에 점도지수 향상제로서 배합, 제조되고 있다. BP사와 Shell사는 윤활유 시장에 VHVI를 배합하여 제조된 이런 유형의 제품을 시판하고 있다. 이런 경우에 초 고점도지수 윤활기유의 사용으로 한가지 잇점을 찾을 수 있다. 생산 원가에 있어서의 제한된 상승에 기인하여 마찰안정도를 향상시키기 위한 점도지수 향상제의 사용에 있어서의 한계가 있다는 점이다. 과연 정말로 Union-Fuchs사는 이런 형태의 응용목적을 위한 분야의 대부분의 그들의 제품에 이러한 VHVI기유를 사용하고 있다. VHVI기유의 다른 분야로의 응용은 기술적으로 관심은 있으나 그 시장점유율이 매우 낮다. VHVI기유의 주된 생산자인 Shell사와 BP사는 최근 경쟁 윤활유 제조사에 이 VHVI기유를 제공, 공급하고 있다. 이것은 확립된 합성유 시장에 대한 도전이 될것으로 사료되며 도전이 되어야 한다.

To assess the effect of environmental factors on the sustainability of cultured production shellfish, we investigated the habitat characteristics of tidal flat (Namhae-po in Taean). We measured the physiochemical parameters (temperature, salanity, pH, dissolved oxygen and nutrients) and the geochemical characteristics (chemical oxygen demand, ignition loss, C/N ratio and C/S ratio). Surface sediments were collected from several site of tidal flat to examine the geochemical characteristics of both the benthic environment and heavy metal pollution. The grain size for research area of tidal flat were similar at the ratio of silt and clay in comparison with the other site of it. The C/N ratio was more than 5.0, reflecting the range arising from the mix of marine organism and organic matter. The C/S ratio (about 2.8) showed that survey area had anoxic or sub-anoxic bottom conditions. The enrichment factor (Ef) and index of accumulation rate (Igeo) of the metals showed that those research areas can be classified as heavily polluted, heavily to moderately polluted, or more or less unpolluted, respectively. Adult surf clam (Mactra veneriformis) density was highest at St. 2 (middle part of the Namhae-po), on the other hand, surf clam spat density was highest at St. 3 (lower part of the Namhae-po). Heavy rain, terrigenous suspended clay with fresh water from neighboring agricultural land, and severe high air temperature during summer could be thought as detrimental causes of spat and adult mortality in Namhae-po tidal flat. We suggested that the growth of shellfish in the tidal flat was effected by the various environmental conditions, so an improvement in the cultured method was needed.

Due to cheap electricity tariff on agricultural use, electricity consumption in agricultural sector has grown dramatically. We evaluated the negative effects of the cheap electricity tariff such as electricity over-consumption, increased dependency on electricity, decreased electricity productivity, and unequal distribution of the benefit. We also estimated the effects of agricultral output growth, structural change, and electricity intensity change on sharp electricity consumption increase in agricultural sector between 1998 and 2016 using the Log Mean Divisia Index decomposition method. The findings reinforce the necessity of raising the electricity tariff for agricultural use.
