We have analyzed the effect of planting site (elevation) and direction of fruiting on the frost damage (tolerance to transparent skin and blemishes) of persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb) 'Fuyu' fruit subjected to the early fall frost (November 2, 2012) in environment-friendly orchards of Changnyeong and Changwon (Gyeongsangnam-do Korea). In Changnyeong, the direction of fruiting showed a significant effect on the fruit weight and the fruit width (p<0.01), and the fruit firmness (p<0.05) while the planting site (elevation) did a highly significant effect on the fruit width and the frost damage (p<0.01), and fruit length (p<0.05). In particular, severe frost damage of fruit (15.2%) and leaves (about 90%) was observed in the plants located in the low elevation area of orchard. The damaged fruit had an transparent skin color and/or blemishes. In Changwon, there was no effect of the planting site and the direction of fruiting on the frost damage, and the fruit characteristics except the fruit width having been related to the planting site (p<0.05). So, the main effects for the fruit frost damage was a terrain factor around the orchards.

Magnesium alloys are known to be hard-forming materials at room temperature owing to their material structure. This study analyzes the optimal temperature conditions of warm-forming and the forming process by using a high-pressure laminating test and FM analysis, respectively. The effect of temperature on the fatigue limit was examined from the collected specimens by analyzing the material properties after the fatigue test. The material formed at a temperature of $230^{\circ}C$ shows occasional defects, but the best forming quality was obtained at $270^{\circ}C$. The optimal temperature for the forming process was found to be $250^{\circ}C$ considering the material quality and thermal efficiency. The overall fatigue life of specimens decreases with an increase in the processing temperature. The fatigue limit of AZ31 formed at $250^{\circ}C$ was approximately 100 MPa after $10^6$ cycles.

대구시는 여름철을 제외하고 서북서풍내지 서풍으로 서풍계열의 바람이 우세하여 지리적으로 서쪽에 위치한 공장지대와 신흥 부도심의 영향이 도심지 내부에 크게 나타날 수밖에 없는 그런 구조를 가지고 있으므로 도심내의 녹지공원 조성과 같은 오아시스 효과로 자연형 대기 순환 구조를 구축하지 않을 경우 환경오염과 지구온난화로 인한 심각한 피해가 초래할 수 있으므로 친환경도시를 위한 준비를 소홀히 해서는 않된다고 사료된다. 아울러 대구광역시의 연평균 대기오염물질의 농도는 $PM_{10}$, $NO_2$ 제외하고 환경기준을 초과한 것은 없으며, 주로 자동차와 주변 공장에 의한 오염원이 대부분임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 $PM_{10}$의 경우 대구시에 산재한 환경측정만 대부분의 지점에서 환경기준을 초과하고 있으므로 디젤 자동차 및 비산먼지 저감 등 미세분진에 대한 저감 대책을 신속히 마련하여야 한다고 생각한다. 그리고 대구시의 $O_3$과 $PM_{10}$의 고농도 현상은 고기압이 장시간 우리나라를 지배하면서 대기가 안정되고 바람이 약하여 국지풍의 발달이 용이할 경우 도심지내에 고농도 오염을 야기하고 있으며 지형적으로 도심의 오염물이 다른 지역으로 수송되거나 확산이 용이하지 않는 지형구조를 갖고 있으므로 도심을 흐르는 신천을 바람통로 이용하고 도심에 녹지공간 형성 및 도심지의 불투수성 지표면을 잔디 이식을 통한 자연형 도로로 바꾸어 줌으로서 도심내의 열 축적 현상을 줄이고 증발산을 도울 수 있는 cold island 역할을 증대시킬 수 있을 것이다. 이와 같은 사업은 풍속이 약하고 건조한 독일을 포함한 유럽의 내륙지방에서 활발하며 최근에는 해안에 있는 대도시에 저온의 해풍 또는 강바람을 도심에 유입시켜 도시열섬을 완화하고자 하는 시도가 일본을 포함한 아시아 국가에서 많은 관심을 가지고 있다(Ichinose, 1999, 2000; 김해동 외, 2002).

Around the world, a lot of people are migrating to the urban areas, and new cities are continuously being constructed. Currently about 54 percent of the world's population live in the urban areas, and by 2050, it is expected to increase to 66 percent; thus, managing the urban areas is one of the most important challenges of sustainable development in the 21st century. The key to successful urban management is to preserve the urban green spaces, which provide aesthetic, psychological and health benefits to the urban citizens. However, the benefits of the urban green spaces are not fully appreciated within the societies due to the difficulty of economic valuation of the urban green spaces. This study examined whether the view of the Songdo Central Park has a positive influence on the prices of the surrounding apartments, using the hedonic pricing method. The results showed that a positive relation exists between the view of the Songdo Central Park and the price of apartment. The price of an apartment with the view of the Songdo Central Park was 5 percent higher than that of an apartment without the view. In addition, it was estimated that the proximity to the Songdo Central Park has an influence on the housing price as well.
