  • This study aims to find the characteristics of damage and states of natural disasters at the Korean Peninsula from 1985 to 2004. Using the data of Statistical yearbook of calamities issued by the National Emergency Management Agency and Annual Climatological Report issued by the Korea Meteorological Administration. we have analyzed the cause, elements, and vulnerable regions for natural disasters. Major causes of natural disaster at Korean Peninsula are four, such as a heavy rain, heavy rain typhoon, typhoon, storm snow, and storm. The frequency of natural disaster is the highest from June to September. The period from December to March also shows high frequency. The total amount of damage is high during the summer season(Jul.-Sept). The period from January to March shows relatively high amount of damage due to storm and storm snow The areas of Gangwon-do, Gyeongsangnam-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do are classified the vulnerable region for the natural disasters. By establishing mitigation plans which fit the type and characteristics of disaster for each region, damage from disaster can be reduced with efficient prevention activities.

  • In this study, emissivity and land surface temperature (LST) were retrieved using the previously developed algorithms and Aqua/MODIS data. And sensitivity of estimated emissivity and LST to the predefined values, such as land cover, normalized difference vegetation index (NOVI) and spectral emissivity were investigated. The methods used for emissivity and LST were vegetation cover method (VCM) and four different split-window algorithms. The spectral emissivity retrieved by VCM was not sensitive to the NOVI error but more sensitive to the land cover error. The comparison of LST showed that the LST was systematically different without regard to the land cover and season. And the LST was very sensitive to the emissivity error excepting the Uliveri et al. This preliminary result indicates that more works are needed for the retrieval of reliable LST from satellite data.

  • UBV photometric monitoring of Eps Aurigae has been made at Yonsei University Observatory since the 1982-1984 eclipse. Among observatios made in four seasons(1984-5, 1985-6, 1986-7, 1987-8) after the 1982-84 eclips ended the observations of the latest season are presented. Standardized UBV light curves of Eps Aur exhibit a light variation in a semi-regular fashion with the amplitudes of 0.12, 0.19, and 0.29 for V, B, and U, respectively. Duratiohs of this light variation may show a color dependency with the mean value of about 78 days whose minimum light on near JD2447118.

  • Gas-phase hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) concentrations were measured to investigate it's distribution in the ambient air in downtown Seoul(Kwanghwamum and Mullae-dong). These measurements were made during four season, from April 30, 1998 to January 29, 1999, using Cold Trap and HPLC. Measurements were also made of other photochemical oxidants and trace gases(O3, NO2, CO and SO2) and meteorological parameters(relative humidity, temperature, solar radiation and wind speed). The mean of all observations was 0.10 ppbv and the range measured was below the level of detection(>0.01 ppbv) to 0.47ppbv. The higher seasonal mean concentrations showed during the summer(0.21 ppbv) and concentrations of H2O2 showed a diurnal variation with maximum concentrations in the afternoon(12:30∼14:00). The results from the corrrelation analysis showed that the concentration of gaseous H2O2 is strongly dependent on the other air pollutants(NO2, CO and O3) and meteorological parameters(relative humidity, temperature and solar radiation.)

  • We examined the ovaries of 312 robust tonguefish (Cynoglossus robustus) collected each month from January to December 2001, off the coast of Yeosu, Korea. The samples were used to investigate robust tonguefish reproductive activity. Monthly changes in the gonadosomatic indexindicated that spawning peaked between June and August. Fish size at first spawning was 15-19 cm total length (TL). Over $50{\%}$ of female fish 25-29 cm TL were sexually mature, and this rose to $100{\%}$ for female fish 35-39 cm TL. The tonguefish spawned four or more times during the spawning season. Most females commenced spawning in their second year. The relationship between total length (cm TL) and fecundity (F) was F=528646Ln(TL)-1E+06.

  • Observation was performed for incidence of chronic necrotic pododermatitis to 1,387 heads of Hostein cows in 25 dairy herds during one year period from March 1975 to Feb. 1976. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Sixty four heads of cow affected chronic necrotic pododermatitis during the observation period and the incidence rate shown 4.61%. 2. Incidence of chronic necrotic pododermatitis was more prevalent of all foot disease and it was occupied 60.9% of all foot disease. 3. The highest incidence was observed on August and September in the season high in temperature and humidity. 4. The disease was more frequently seen affecting in hind than front limbs, and lateral than medial claws. 5. The disease was more frequently seen affecting in older cows, and higher production cows.

  • There are human casualties that caused by slope-stability related disasters such as landslide and debris flow during typhoon and rainy season every year in Korea. These disaster sites can be analyzed systematically using digital topographic data and aerial photogrammetry. In this study, geographical factors such as slope degree, geology, height, and soil depth are analyzed in four landslide-disaster sites from Muju, Jinan, and Jangsu County based on digital elevation maps generated by ArcGIS. Each site showed different characteristics in geology and geography and it is found that GIS can be utilized for the visualization of steep-slope failure areas.

  • Numerical simulations on the suspended sediment transport in the Nakdong Estuary are carried out Uncoupled flow model and diffusion model of which the governing equations are two-dimensional depth integrated equations are used int his study. Four cases are tested in this numerical simulations in which the Gaduk waterway open boundary condition and Nakdong Estuary barrage boundary condition are considered as the boundary conditions. The simulated results are compared with the measured data which were obtained by NEDECO at hadan site on 1981.2.19. and by Dong-A university at one station in the study area on 1993.4.3. and show a good agreement with them. The construction of the Nakdong Estuary Barrage may affect to reduce the current near Jinudo an Daemadeung and the suspended sediment inflowed from the upstream in the wet season seems to be transported to the Dadae.

  • Extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) generated Enterobacteriaceae including Escherichia coli is responsible for resisting antibiotics, which is clinical problem. This study was performed to investigate the isolation rates of 111 strains having positive of VITEK ESBL test 111 ESBL-strains in each month and season and statistically to determine their patterns of antibiotic test. One hundred eleven ESBL-strains were collected among 1,688 strains of E. coli isolated from various clinical specimen of one general hospital in Busan during 2002 to 2003. Month rates of ESBL-strains were 0% to 13.3%, while the seasonal rates were highest at autumns during two years. The resistance to ampicillin, cefazolin, azteronam, ceftriaxone, and cefepime were 100% in 2002. In ampicillin and cefazolin the resistances were 100% during the two years. There were significant differences of cefoxitin and piperacillin/tazobactam between the two years but not significant between specimens. Four groups were divided according to the pattern of resistance and then the highest group had 93∼100% of the resistance to 8 drugs but not resistant to imipenem.
