오대산 국립공원내 야생조류상을 파악하고 관리방안을 제시하기 위하여 2개 조사구역에 대해 1995년 6월 중순부터 1996년 12월 초순까지 선조사법에 의하여 4회 조사하였다. 총 9목 22과 52종이 관찰되었으며, 이들은 텃새 25종과 여름철새 16종, 나그네새 8종 및 겨울철새 3종으로 구성되어 있다. 천연기념물 제 242호인 까막딱다구리, 제323호인 황조롱이와 붉은 배새매, 제 324호인 소쩍새와 올빼미 등 5종이 관찰되었다. 종 수 및 개체수는 제 2조사구역에서 많았고, 종 구성에서 상당한 차이를 보였다. 번식조류군집의 영소길드(nesting guild)는 두 조사구역 모두 둥지자원을 관목(bush), 수동(hole), 수관층(canopy) 순으로 높게 이용하는 것으로 나타났다. 관목 영소길드(bush-nesting guild)의 종 수가 높게 나타난 것은 제 1 조사구역의 임연부에 형성된 관목층과 제 2조사구역의 정상부근 능선의 관목층과 관련이 있을 것으로 생각된다. 수동 영소길드(bush-nesting guild) 중 오색딱다구리, 까막딱다구리, 청딱다구리 등 3종류는 제 2조사구역에서만 관찰되어 제 2조사구역이 제 1조사구역보다 등산로에 의한 단편화(fragmentation) 정도가 적을 뿐만 아니라 조사면적 내에 대경급 임목이 산재하여 있는 것과 관련이 높을 것으로 판단된다. 월정사에서 상원사에 이르는 계류 지역은 노랑할미새와 검은댕기해오라기, 물까마귀 등과 같은 조류의 번식을 위해 등산로 주변의 관목층을 보호해야 할 것이다. 적설량이 많은 겨울철에 이 지역의 야생조류에게 인공먹이를 공급하여 다음해의 넉넉한 번식을 꾀하여야 할 것이며, 까막딱다구리 및 올빼미 등 대면적의 행동권을 요구하는 종을 위해서는 서식지의 단편화(fragmentation)를 막아야 할 것이다. 한편, 상원사의 집비둘기 개체군은 둥지자원을 철저히 제거하여 더 이상 귀중한 문화재가 훼손되지 않도록 해야할 것이다.

본 연구에서는 단백질 상호작용 네트워크에서 네트워크 견고성의 핵심노드는 허브노드이지만 연결노드 또한 허브노드와 같이 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 밝혀냈다. 네트워크 견고성에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 핵심노드는 차수가 매우 큰 허브이다. 이 연구에서 새로이 제안된 연결노드는 단백질상호 작용 네트워크에서 고밀도로 연결된 모듈들 사이에 위치하여 네트워크 견고성에 중요한 영향을 미치는 노드이다. 실제로 척도 없는 네트워크는 무작위 공격에 매우 강한 반면, 허브노드만을 제거하는 목표 공격에는 매우 취약하다. 기존에 핵심노드로 노드의 연결성을 연구한 방식과 사이 중앙성(centrality)을 기반으로 사이 중앙성(betweenness centrality)이 큰 노드가 전체 네트워크에서 핵심노드임을 연구한 방식이 있다. 그러나 노드의 연결성 즉, 차수와 사이 중앙성은 일정한 비례관계가 있어서 차수가 클수록 사이 중앙성 값이 커지기 때문에 기존의 두 연구는 큰 차이점을 갖지 못한다. 본 연구에서는 단백질 상호작용 네트워크도 척도 없는 네트워크이므로 노드의 차수와 사이 중앙성 간에 비례관계가 형성되지만, 차수가 작은 노드일수록 사이 중앙성 값이 매우 넓게 분포하고 있다는 특징에 착안하여 연결노드를 제안한다. 이 연구에서는 차수가 매우 작지만 사이 중앙성 값이 매우 큰 노드를 연결노드로 간주하여 실제 인터넷 상에서 공개된 생물 네트워크를 대상으로 견고성 분석 실험을 한다. 실험 결과 연결노드들이 생물 네트워크에서 제거되면 허브노드가 제거되는 것보다 더욱 큰 네트워크 분화가 발생하였으며, 이는 연결노드가 네트워크 견고성 측면에서 매우 중요한 요소임을 입증하는 것이다.는 $30^{\circ}C$에서 20분간 안정하였다.다.. 금속산화물반도체 전계효과 트랜지스터를 살펴보면 격자산란이 주로 표면에서 일어나기 때문에 1/f-형 잡음이 표면효과라고 말할 수 있다.이 가수분해되어 생성된 카르복실산 염(sodium carboxylate) 때문인 것으로 판단되었다.산화효과 (in vitro)가 있음이 증명되었으며, 이 항산화활성은 극성이 비교적 큰 화합물들에 의한 것임을 추정할 수 있다. 현재 쇠비름 추출물로부터 항산화활성성분을 분리하기 위한 연구가 진행 중이다.는 exp-onential phase 동안 급격한 균체성장으로 용존산소가 부족하여 NADH balance에 의해 astaxanthin 생합성 경로 중 탈수소화 단계가 저해되기 때문으로 사료되었다. 최종 세포농도는 43.3 g/L, 단위부피당 carotenoids 함량은 149.4 mg/L, astaxanthin 함량은 110.6 mg/L로서 산업적인 생산성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이번 연구를 통하여 개발된 변이주 B76 및 이의 대량 발효를 위한 최종조건의 정립은 향후 astaxanthin의 산업적 생산공정에 필요한 기초자료로 이용될 것으로 기대된다.색총말내에 소형의 도형, 소형의 장형 연접소포 및 DENSE CORE VESICLE의 3가지 연접소포를 가지고 있었고 출현빈도수는 촉각엽에서 가장 큰 33%이었다. 제5형 신경연접은 축색종말내에 중등도크기의 원형, 대형의 원형연접소포 및 DENSE CORE VESICLE을 포함하였고 13%의 출현빈도수로 관찰되었다. 배추횐나비의 촉각에 있는 지각신경세포가 뇌의 촉각엽으로 뻗어 들어가 위의 5가지 신경연접중 어느

The purpose of this study is (a) to identify physical and content elements of children's books that seem to interest second and fifth graders to read, and (b) to observe how the influence of those elements on children's reading interest shifts as children develop. For the purpose of this study, children's books are classified into two groups: 'books of low preference' and 'books of high preference' as determined by second graders, and fifth graders' library circulation record in the library chosen as the sample for the present study. The physical and content elements of the books belonging to these two groups are analyzed and compared. Main findings and conclusions made in this study are summarised as follows: (1) The physical elements of children's books which have significant relationship with second graders' reading preference are illustration quantity, size of types, space between lines, and size of the book. (2) The content elements of children's books which have significant relationship with second graders' reading preference are the readability level of sentences, and the sex of heroes. (3) The physical elements of children's books which have significant relationship with fifth graders' reading preference are illustration quantity, illustration styles, and size of the book. (4) The content elements of children's books which have significant relationship with fifth graders' reading preference are the readability level, the sex of heroes, subject matters, themes and the environmental settings as the background of stories. (5) Reading preference of the pupils at the second and fifth grades are influenced by the quantity of illustration. Second grade pupils prefer reading books which contain a larger quantity of illustrations, whereas 5th grade pupils prefer books which contain less quantity of illustrations. (6) The relationship between second graders' reading preference and the illustration style are rejected at the $10\%$ significance level. A strong relationship, however, appears to exist between 5th graders' reading preference and the illustration style. The 5th grade pupils prefer more realistic illustrations, while cartoons and semi-abstract drawings do not appeal to them. (7) The type size, and space between lines which have had great influence on the book preference of 2nd grade pupils influence little on the 5th grade pupils book preference. (8) Second grade pupils prefer the book of a small Size, whereas 5th grade pupils whose reading taste has developed at a primary stage prefer the book of a large size beyond a certain standard. (9) Second grade pupils prefer reading books which can be easily read, whreeas 5th grade pupils prefer reading books containing difficult sentences. (10) Second grade pupils and the 5th grade pupils both prefer books in accordance with the sex of there heroes. (11) Relationship between second graders' reading preference and the subject matters are rejected at the 10% significance level. A strong relationship, however, appears to exist between 5th graders' reading preference and the subject matter. Fifth grade pupils prefer reading books of which the themes are mystery, exploration and adventure. (12) The theme of books is not proved to relate with the book preference of the 2nd grade pupils, but it is closely related with the book preference of 5th grade pupils. Fifth grade pupils prefer reading books which contain exploratory stories. (13) Second grade pupils are not influenced by the environmental setting of the story, but 5th grade pupils prefer reading stories with the environmental setting in the air. (14) The quantity of illustrations is the element influencing most on .the book preference of the 2nd grade pupils, followed by the space between the lines, which influences least on the book preference of the 5th grade pupils. (15) The physical element influencing most on the book preference of the 2nd grade pupils is the quantity of the illustrations. The physical element which has the most strong influence on the book preference of the 5th graders is illustration styles. (16) The content elements which has much influence on the book preference of the 5th grade pupils are certain kinds of characteristics of heroes. In case of the 2nd grade pupils book preference, striking evidence of such characteristics of heroes is not traced.

The legal labyrinth through which we have just walked is one in which even a highly proficient lawyer could easily become lost. Warsaw Convention's original objective of uniformity of private international aviation liability law has been eroded as the world community ha attempted again to address perceived problems. Efforts to create simplicity and certainty of recovery actually may have created less of both. In any particular case, the issue of which international convention, intercarrier agreement or national law to apply will likely be inconsistent with other decisions. The law has evolved faster for some nations, and slower for others. Under the Warsaw Convention of 1929, strict liability is imposed on the air carrier for damage, loss, or destruction of cargo, luggage, or goods sustained either: (1) during carriage in air, which is comprised of the period during which cargo is 'in charge of the carrier (a) within an aerodrome, (b) on board the aircraft, or (c) in any place if the aircraft lands outside an aerodrome; or (2) as a result of delay. By 2007, 151 nations had ratified the original Warsaw Convention, 136 nations had ratified the Hague Protocol, 84 had ratified the Guadalajara Protocol, and 53 nations had ratified Montreal Protocol No.4, all of which have entered into force. In November 2003, the Montreal Convention of 1999 entered into force. Several airlines have embraced the Montreal Agreement or the IATA Intercarrier Agreements. Only seven nations had ratified the moribund Guatemala City Protocol. Meanwhile, the highly influential U.S. Second Circuit has rendered an opinion that no treaty on the subject was in force at all unless both affected nations had ratified the identical convention, leaving some cases to fall between the cracks into the arena of common law. Moreover, in the United States, a surface transportation movement prior or subsequent to the air movement may, depending upon the facts, be subject to Warsaw, or to common law. At present, International private air law regime can be described as a "situation of utter chaos" in which "even legal advisers and judges are confused." The net result of this barnacle-like layering of international and domestic rules, standards, agreements, and criteria in the elimination of legal simplicity and the substitution in its stead of complexity and commercial uncertainty, which manifestly can not inure to the efficient and economical flow of world trade. All this makes a strong case for universal ratification of the Montreal Convention, which will supersede the Warsaw Convention and its various reformulations. Now that the Montreal Convention has entered into force, the insurance community may press the airlines to embrace it, which in turn may encourage the world's governments to ratify it. Under the Montreal Convention, the common law defence is available to the carrier even when it was not the sole cause of the loss or damage, again making way for the application of comparative fault principle. Hopefully, the recent entry into force of the Montreal Convention of 1999 will re-establish the international legal uniformity the Warsaw Convention of 1929 sought to achieve, though far a transitional period at least, the courts of different nations will be applying different legal regimes.

Now, safety assurance in construction sites should be accomplished by its own organization rather than control of the code or government. It is believed that the safety assurance can be considerably improved by a lecture or an education using the existing theories or literatures up to now, but it is thought that fundamental safety assurance we not able to be accomplished without developing safety devices '||'&'||' equipment or taking fundamental measures, based on the result analyzed from workers behaviors. There are various behaviors of the workers showed in construction site, but only tests for hammerusing works such as form, re-bar, stone workers directly related to the grip strength are mainly performed, investigated and measured here for the study. The above works are similar to power grip, 7th picture on seven items which are categorized for hand grip types(Ammermin 1956 ; Jones ; Kobrick 1958). Measurements of grip strength are commonly taken in anthropometric surveys. They are easy to administer but unfortunately it is rather dubious whether they yield any data that are of interest to the engineer. Very fewer controls of tools are grasped and squeesed studies showed very little overall correlation between grip strength and other measures of bodily strength (Laubach, Kromer, and Thordsen 1972), but hammer-using work which is practically progressed in construction site are mainly influenced with grip strength. According to the investigation on work measurement, it is shown that 77% of form worker are using hammer to be related to grip strength. In this study, it is particularly noticed that wearing safety gloves in construction site is required for workers safety but 20% difference between grip strength with safety gloves and without ones are commonly neglected in the site(Fig. 1). Nevertheless, safety operation with consideration of the above 20% difference is not considered in the construction site. Factors of age, kinds of work, working time, with or without safety gloves are in vestigated '||'&'||' collected at the sites for this study. Test, not at each working hour but at 14 : 00 when the almost all of the workers think the most tired, resulting from the questionaires, also when it is shown on the research report has been performed and compared for main kinds of works : form '||'&'||' re-bar work. Tests were performed with both left SE rightand of the workers simultaneously in construction site using Rand Dynamometer(Model 78010, Lafayette Instrument Co., Indiana, U.S.A) by reading grip strength on the gauge while they are pulling, and then by interviewing on their ages, works, experiences and etc., directly. The above tests have been performed for the dates of 15th march-26th May '95 with consideration of site condition. And even if various factors of ambient temperature on the testing date, working condition, individual worker's habit and worker's condition of the previous ate are concerned with the study. Those are considered as constants in this study. Samples are formwork 53, rebar 62, electrician 5, plumber 4, welding 1 from D construction Co., Ltd, ; formwork 12, re-bar 5, electrician 2, from S construction Co., Ltd, , formwork 78, re-bar 18, plumber 31, electrician 13, labor 48, plumber 31, plasterer 15, concrete placer 6, water proof worker 3, maisony 5 from B construction Co., Ltd. As In the previously mentioned, main aspect to be investigated in this study will be from '||'&'||' re-bar work because grip strength will be directly applied to these two kinds of works ; form '||'&'||' re-bar work, eventhough there are total 405 samples taken. It is thought that a frequency of accident occurrence will be mainly two work postures "looking up '||'&'||' looking down" to be mainly sorted, but this factor is not clarified in this study because It will be needed a lot of work more. Tests has been done at possible large scale of horizontally work-extended sites within one hour in order to prevent or decrease errors '||'&'||' discrepancies from time lag of the test. Additionally, the statistical package computer program SPSS PC＋has been used for the study.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the mechanics of price formation in the tramp shipping. For the purpose of this study, the main characteristics of tramp freight rates and the market is examined, and a brief examination of the nature ofthe costs of operation is given which are essential for the understanding of the functioning of shipping firms as well as for the understanding of developments in the tramp freight market. The demand and supply relationships in the market is also analysed in detail. Tramp shipping is an industry that has a market which functions under conditions that are not dissimilar to the theoretical model of perfect competition. However, it does notmean that tramp shipping market is a perfectly competitive market. It is apparent that this realworld competitive system has its imperfections, which means that the market for tramp shipping is near to being a perfectly competitive market on an internaitonal scale and it is freight are therefore subjext to the laws of supply and demand. In theory, the minimum freight rate in the short term is that at which the lowest cost vessels will lay-up in preference to operating, and is equal to the variable costs minus lay-up costs; and this would imply that in all times except those of full employment for ships there is a tendency for newer low-cost, and, probably, faster vessels to be driving the older high-cost vessels in the breaker's yards. In this case, shipowners may be reluctant to lay-up their ships becasue of obligations to crews, or because they would lose credibility with shippers or financiers, or simply because of lost prestige. Mainly, however, the decision is made on strictly economic grounds. When, for example, the total operating costs minus the likely freight earnings are greater than the cost of taking the ship out of service, maintaining it, and recommissioning it, then a ship may be considered for laying-up; shipowners will, in other words, run the ships at freight earnings below operating costs by as much as the cost of laying them up. As described above, the freight rates fixed on the tramp shipping market are subject to the laws of supply and demand. In other words, the basic properties of supply and demand are of significance so far as price or rate fluctuations in the tramp freight market are concerned. In connection with the same of the demand for tramp shipping services, the following points should be brone in mind: (a) That the magnitude of demand for sea transport of dry cargoes in general and for tramp shipping services in particular is increasing in the long run. (b) That owning to external factors, the demand for tramp shipping services is capable of varying sharphy at a given going of time. (c) The demad for the industry's services tends to be price inelastic in the short run. On the other hand the demand for the services offered by the individual shipping firm tends as a rule to be infinitely price elastic. In the meantime, the properties of the supply of the tramp shipping facilities are that it cannot expand or contract in the short run. Also, that in the long run there is a time-lag between entrepreneurs' decision to expand their fleets and the actual time of delivery of the new vessels. Thus, supply is inelastic and not capable of responding to demand and price changes at a given period of time. In conclusion, it can be safely stated that short-run changes in freight rates are a direct result of variations in the magnitude of demand for tramp shipping facilities, whilest the average level of freight rates is brought down to relatively low levels over prolonged periods of time.
