지구온난화로 인해 발생한 기후변화는 한반도의 홍수, 가뭄 등의 발생빈도를 증가시켰으며, 이로 인해 인적, 물적 피해가 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 수재해 대비 및 대응을 위해서는 국가 차원의 수자원 관리 계획 수립이 필요하며, 유역 단위 수자원 관리를 위해서는 장기간 관측된 유량 자료를 이용하여 도출된 유량지속곡선이 필요하다. 전통적으로 수자원 분야에서 유량지속곡선을 도출하기 위하여 물리적 기반의 강우-유출 모형이 많이 사용되고 있으며, 최근에는 데이터 기반의 딥러닝 기법을 이용한 유출량 예측 기법에 관한 연구가 진행된 바 있다. 물리적 기반의 모형은 수문학적으로 신뢰도 높은 결과를 도출할 수 있으나, 사용자의 높은 이해도가 요구되며, 모형 구동 시간이 오래 걸릴 수 있는 단점이 있다. 데이터 기반의 딥러닝 기법의 경우 입력 자료가 간단하며, 모형 구동 시간이 비교적 짧으나 입력 및 출력자료 간의 관계가 블랙박스로 처리되어 수리·수문학적 특성을 반영할 수 없는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 물리적 기반 모형으로 국내외에서 적용성이 검증된 Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT)의 매개변수 보정(Calibration)을 통해 장기간의 결측치 없는 데이터를 산출하고, 이를 데이터 기반 딥러닝 기법인 Long Short-term Memory (LSTM)의 훈련(Training) 데이터로 활용하였다. 시계열 데이터 분석 결과 검·보정 전체 기간('07-'18) 동안 Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE)와 적합도 비교를 위한 결정계수는 각각 0.04, 0.03 높게 도출되어 모형에서 도출된 SWAT의 결과가 LSTM보다 전반적으로 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 모형에서 도출된 연도별 시계열 자료를 내림차순하여 산정된 유량지속곡선과 관측유량 기반의 유량지속곡선과 비교한 결과 NSE는 SWAT과 LSTM 각각 0.95, 0.91로 나타났으며, 결정계수는 0.96, 0.92로 두 모형 모두 우수한 성능을 보였다. LSTM 모형의 경우 저유량 부분 모의의 정확도 개선이 필요하나, 방대한 입력 자료로 인해 모형 구축 및 구동 시간이 오래 걸리는 대유역과 입력 자료가 부족한 미계측 유역의 유량지속곡선 산정 등에 활용성이 높을 것으로 판단된다.

This study was carried out to determine whether a short-tenn zinc supplementation contributes to beneficial changes in glycemic control among type 2 diabetic patients. Seventy-six diabetic subjects and 72 normal adults participated in this study. Subjects were divided into supplemented and control groups. Forty-four diabetic patients and 34 normal subjects were supplemented with 50 mg zinc daily as zinc gluconate for 4 weeks. Zinc status was assessed from fasting plasma levels and urinary excretion. The effects of zinc supplementation on fasting blood glucose, $HbA_{1c}$, insulin, and C-peptide were measured at the beginning of the study and after 4 weeks of supplementation. The changes in glycemic control indicators were compared between diabetic groups, classified by baseline $HbA_{1c}$ levels, and by diabetic duration. At baseline, the incidence of marginal zinc deficiency in the diabetic group, as determined by plasma zinc level, was approximately twice as high as in the normal adult group. The changes of $HbA_{1c}$ concentration, and fasting blood glucose following supplementation were not statistically significant in diabetic subjects. In normal subjects, a significant decrease of $HbA_{1c}$ occurred only in the zinc supplemented group. No significant changes were observed for serum insulin and C-peptide in diabetic as well as normal subjects. However, when the changes were compared by baseline $HbA_{1c}$ level, we found that diabetic subjects with $HbA_{1c}\;{\geq}\;7.5%$ showed significantly improved levels of $HbA_{1c}$ and fasting glucose after Zn supplementation. While such improvement in fasting blood glucose was significant among diabetics with shorter diabetic duration, significant levels of increase in serum insulin and C-peptide were observed in zinc supplemented subjects with longer diabetic duration. Fasting blood glucose was significantly decreased, whereas serum insulin and C-peptide were increased in diabetics with marginal zinc status. Therefore, we suggest that Zn supplementation for a short-term period may improve glycemic control in diabetic patients with higher $HbA_{1c}$ levels and marginal zinc status.

Purpose - This study aims to examine whether family firm governance is related to long-term corporate survival. To find out whether and why family firms have higher chances of long-term survival compared to non family firms, this study analyzes the relationship between some governance characteristics that are prevalent in family firms and corporate long-term viability. Design/methodology/approach - This study utilizes a sample of 285 family firms listed on the Korea Stock Exchange (KSE) to probe the influence of governance characteristics on corporate survival. This study conducts Cox proportional hazard regression analysis to estimate the influences on the survival duration. Findings - The results indicate that firms with particular governance characteristics show higher long-term survivability. Specifically, the probability of firm's long-term survival is increased when the CEO is the largest shareholder, which may be related to CEO's stewardship attitudes. Research implications or Originality - This study has significance in that it examines the direct causal variables that enhance long-term corporate viability through a large scale empirical examination. Also, the study findings provide some clues as to why certain family firms outlive non-family firms.

For the development of flow duration curves for the management of 41 Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) units of the Nakdong River basin, first, an equation for estimating daily flow rates as well as the level of correlation (correlation and determination coefficients) was extrapolated through regression analysis of discrete (Ministry of Environment) and continuous (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transportation) measurement data. The equation derived from the analysis was used to estimate daily flow rates in order to develop flow duration curves for each TMDL unit. By using the equation, the annual flow duration curves and flow curves, for the entire period and for each TMDL unit of the basin, were developed to be demonstrated in this research. Standard flow rates (abundant-, ordinary-, low- and drought flows) for major flow duration periods were calculated based on the annual flow duration curves. Then, the flow rates, based on percentile ranks of exceedance probabilities (5, 25, 50, 75, and 95%), were calculated according to the flow duration curves for the entire period and are suggested in this research. These results can be used for feasibility assessment of the set values of primary and secondary standard flow rates for each river system, which are derived from complicated models. In addition, they will also be useful for the process of implementing TMDL management, including evaluation of the target level of water purity based on load duration curves.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between post - employment job satisfaction and both short-term (4-12 weeks) and long-term (12+weeks) on-site training. For this purpose, 405 graduates who had completed on-site training (205 short-term, 200 long term) during the school year were surveyed. The results of the comparative analysis of both short-term and long-term on-site training participants are as follows: In both short-term and long-term on-site training, it was found that on-site performance during the school year did not directly affect post-employment job satisfaction. In the case of short-term on-site training participants, job match and organizational commitment were found to have no mediating effect on the correlation between on-site training performance and job satisfaction. On the other hand, in the case of long-term on-site training participants, the analysis showed that job match and organizational commitment had mediating effects on the correlation between on-site training performance and job satisfaction. These effects are not solely attributable to differences in duration of training; the differences in operating systems and the degree of preparation derived from these systems also affect the level of on-site training for students, businesses, and schools. This paper summarizes these findings and suggests the following improvement plans for on-site training in the future: First, short-term on-site training is required to establish a systematic basis in order to enhance students' preparedness level. Second, both short-term and long-term on-site training should improve the skills and field understanding for students' majors through systematic quality management during the training period. Third, it is necessary for universities to increase expectations and quality of short-term on-site training for all involved while simultaneously reducing the gap between educational goals and practice in this field.

Time-related underemployment exists when a person's employment is insufficient in terms of the volume of work. Two alternative definitions can be considered based on a longer-term view or a shorter-term view and these were designed into a single questionnaire. We conducted a pilot sample survey with about 6,000 respondents in Korea. The estimates of underemployment using the two definitions show some differences given the ages, genders, industrial areas and main activities of the respondents. A larger number of people could be identified as underemployed when the longer-term view is used than when the shorter-term view is used, but there is a greater cost associated with the former. The cost-benefit of the interviewers' time was investigated by multiple visits to households. Biases and costs are also analyzed using the results of the comparison of the decrease in non-responses with the increase in the costs for the interviews.

Epidural block is used for surgical analgesia, postoperative pain management, obstetric relief and management of chronic pain. Long-term pain control for chronic pain is achieved by development of epidural catheter placement technic. But long term placement of epidural catheteter has several problems, epidural hematoma, epidural absess and neural damage. We had successfully managed long-term placement of epidural catheter in patient with diabetic neuropathy who was susceptable to infection. The duration of epidural catheter placement was 416 days and specific complication was not occurred.

Since a few decade ago, there has been a demand on the safety monitoring of civil infrastructures, such as bridges, in order to prevent possibly occurrable disaster due to human negligence. The main cause for a failure or collapse of structures is absolutely a structural crack. For the reason, it is necessary to monitor the propagation of a structural crack. But a crack in bridges is gradually propagating with the traffic loads through the long term. There are lots of sensors to monitor structural cracks on bridges, but much information about them was not given so far. Therefore, in this study, the experimental comparison for long-term monitoring sensors, especially, strain measurement sensors, in terms of duration, temperature dependency, accuracy was made extensively.
