In March 2003, classical swine fever (CSF) infection was reported in a piggery located at Iksan city, Jeollabuk-do in Korea. Subsequently, a total of 72 infected farms were confirmed between March and December, 2003. Based on epidemiological investigation of the earlier confirmed infected farms, the source of infection was shown to be from a breeding farm. Targeted surveillance of 82 piggeries that had acquired pigs from this breeding farm showed 44 piggeries were infected with CSF virus. CSF virus was introduced into this breeding farm by movement of selected breeder pigs from its 12 contracted farms which were located in areas that had been affected by CSF epidemic in late 2002. CSF had then spread through out the country mainly by direct transmission through the sale and movement of pigs from this breeding farm. Consequently, 47 (62%) among 72 CSF affected farms were associated, directly and indirectly, with this breeding farm. This study showed that inadequate control for breeding farms and transport restriction in CSF outbreak areas resulted in the nationwide spread of CSF and the failure of the eradication campaign that has been underway for several years by the Korean animal hygiene authority as well as the fanners. Improvements of control policy through further research of the 2003 CSF epidemic will be needed to reestablish the Korean CSF eradication program in the future.

The objective of this study is to evaluate and improve the capability of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in simulating fog and visibility in local airports over Korea. The WRF model system is statistically evaluated for the 48-fog cases over Korea from 2003 to 2006. Based on the 4-yr evaluations, attempts are made to improve the simulation skill of fog and visibility over Korea by revising the statistical coefficients in the visibility algorithms of the WRF model. A comparison of four existing visibility algorithms in the WRF model shows that uncertainties in the visibility algorithms include additional degree of freedom in accuracy of numerical fog forecasts over Korea. A revised statistical algorithm using a linear-regression between the observed visibility and simulated hydrometeors and humidity near the surface exhibits overall improvement in the visibility forecasts.

Acanthotrema felis is an intestinal trematode of cats originally reported from the Republic of Korea. Only 1 human case infected with a single adult worm has been previously recorded. In the present study, we report 4 human cases infected with a total of 10 worms recovered after anthelmintic treatment and purging. All 4 patients reside in coastal areas of Jeollanam-do, Korea, and have consumed brackish water fish including the gobies, Acanthogobius flavimanus. The worms averaged 0.47 mm in length and 0.27 mm in width, and had 3 sclerites on the ventrogenital sac; 1 was short and thumb-like, another was long and blunt-ended, and the 3rd was long and broad-tipped. They were identified as A. felis Sohn, Han, & Chai, 2003. Surveys on coastal areas to detect further human cases infected with A. felis are required.

항공기술의 발달과 더불어 항공기가 날로 무기화하는 추세에 있어서 특히 세계적으로 조밀한 공역을 자랑하는 동아시아에 위치한 우리나라의 입장에 서는 북한과의 대치상황과 더불어 영공 기타 공역에 대한 대응이 현실적으로 절실한 상황이다 그러나, 현재 우리의 관련 법제는 법률적인 차원에서 이에 대한 대응을 하지 못하고, 군 내부의 관련규정에만 의존하고 있어 실제로 침범사고의 발생시에 그 처리에 있어서 많은 문제점이 제기될 가능성이 존재한다. 이 논문에서는 한반도 주변의 공역을 영공, 방공식별구역, 비행정보구역, 배타적 경제수역 상공, 접속수역 상공, 공해 상공으로 구분하여 각 공역의 특성과 이에 대한 우리의 대응조치 등을 살펴보고, 나아가 문제점을 해결하는 방안으로 관련법제의 입법방향에 대해서 검토해 보고자 한다.

In the Republic of Korea, mathematics has always been a major blame for huge private expenditures on so-called "private education," which consists of private tutoring and lessons at "private academies of extra curricula." The private spending on out-of-school education often exceeded public expenditures on schools. In 1997, South Korean Ministry of Education reformed curriculum of mathematics along with other subjects to ease the burden of private education. The aim of this curriculum change was to put a boost on individual students' interests, affections and other attributes toward school mathematics. The essential distinctiveness of the new curriculum of mathematics compared with the previous one is as follows: 1. The implementation of so-called "differentiated curriculum" for grades 1-10. 2. 30% reduction of contents in mathematics and the reconciliation of contents. 3. Elective subjects for mathematics for grades 11 and 12. 4. More uses of technology in mathematics teaching. Firstly, we examine the background of the curriculum reform and analyze the new curriculum according to awareness of educational administrators, teaching environments of schools and readiness of mathematics teachers. Then we find out what kinds of problems it has and look for some suggestions for remedies.

2003년에 광우병 발생으로 수입 금지되었던 미국산 쇠고기는 2008년 한 미 FTA 체결로 인하여 전면 수입 개방되었고, 이는 국민들의 불안심리를 자극하여 정부와의 갈등을 야기시켰으며, 2008년 국내 최대 이슈가 되었다. 이러한 사회적 논란은 소비자들의 수입 쇠고기 및 한 육우의 소비를 감소시켰다. 따라서 본 연구는 쇠고기의 사용자 측면(일반 소비자)과 제공자의 측면(외식 예비 창업자)에서 미국산 쇠고기에 대한 수용 태도를 조사하고, 그에 따라서 쇠고기 소비량 변화에 대한 탐색적 연구를 실시하고자 하였고, 미국산 쇠고기에 대한 수용 태도는 소비자들의 불신과 두려움, 분노와 같은 부정적 감정으로 인한 태도를 측정하기 위해 이율배반이라는 개념을 도입하여 측정하였다. 그 결과, 미국산 쇠고기에 대한 이율배반적 수용 태도는 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 일반 소비자는 미국산 쇠고기에 대해 자신은 먹지 않지만, 타인이 먹는 것은 괜찮다는 이율배반적인 수용 태도 B형에 동의할수록 쇠고기 소비량은 증가하는 것으로 나타났고, 외식 예비 창업자는 미국산 쇠고기에 대해 자신은 먹지만, 타인이 먹는 것은 걱정된다는 이율배반적 수용 태도 A형에 동의할수록 쇠고기 소비량은 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 외식 예비 창업자는 미국을 신뢰할수록 이율배반적 수용 태도 A형에 대한 동의가 낮아지고, 일반 소비자는 미국을 신뢰할수록 이율배반적 수용 태도 B형에 대한 동의가 높아지는 것으로 나타났다.

Mycoplasmas resemble H. pylori in production of ammonia and induction of inflammatory cytokines from immune and non-immne cells. In Republic of Korea infection rate of H. pylori is relatively high but only a proportion of them invite additional inflammation and progress into gastric cancers. Therefore, additional risk factors cannot be excluded. The presence and identification of mycoplasma were confirmed by semi -nested PCR and sequencing and the results were compared with pathological data. Fifty-six samples collected from Korean chronic gastritis patients were used for the study. Twenty-three (41.1%) were positive to mycoplasmas and all of them were identified as human mycoplasmas, M. faucium, M. fermentans, M. orale, M. salivarium and M. spermatophilum. Mycoplasma-infected chronic gastritis samples showed more severe, additional infiltration of neutrophils than non-infected samples and the difference was significant (P < 0.05). In conclusion human mycoplasma infection may playa role in progression of chronic gastritis to metaplasia by inducing additional inflammation.

The importance of nondestructive testings and its international standardization are well recognized not only in the developed countries and but also in the developing countries in recent years. In order to deal with the international standardization for nondestructive testing, the ISO/TC 135 meeting was held in Cheju island, Republic of Korea from 28th to 31st, October, 2003. In this period, the meetings of subcommittee 2, 5, 6, 7, and SC 7 WG 7 were also held. Here summarized are the results of the meetings and the status of ISO/TC 135. In addition, the major revisions of ISO 9712 to be included in 2004 edition are discussed in detail.

The complexity of information and communication policy has been increasing due to its rapid changes and its expansions toward various fields. I used the2001, 2002 and 2003 White Papers on MIC(Ministry of Information and Communication Republic of Korea) as a reference and the Vensim PLE program to create a causal map. According to my analysis, no major feedback loop was found among the information and communication policies. Thus, it was impossible to conduct a causal map analysis on these policies. The causal map analysis is usually employed to understand a complex mechanism of entire policies by finding feedback loops among them. A lack of feedback loops makes it impossible to conduct the causal map analysis and means that the mechanism of such policies is even more complex to understand. The most important conclusion is that to consider feedback thought among the policies based on the systems thinking before making the policies.
