  • The purpose of the study is to review current status of green roof technology and to suggest the issues and solutions related with the technological problems of green roof in Korea. The scope of the study is limited to the extensive green roof which requires low maintenance. Technological issues related with green roof include soil, water proofing, water drain, vegetation and maintenance. Several solutions to invigorate green roof technology were suggested as follows; 1)implementation of technical standard for green roof and technology certification system, 2) development of suitable raw materials for green roof, 3) construction guidelines and uniform construction specification, 4) formulation of city ordinance for green roof, and 5) exchange program with foreign green roof organizations.

  • The impermeable area on the surface of city has been increased as buildings and artificial landcover have continually been increased. Urban development has gradually decreased the green zone in downtown and alienated the city from the natural environment on outskirt area devastating the natural eco system. There arise the environmental problems peculiar to city including urban heat island phenomenon, urban flood, air pollution and urban desertification. As one of urban plans to solve such problems, green roof system is attracting attentions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the heat reduction effect according to the development of green roof system and to quantify the heat reduction effect by analyzing through simulation the heat environment before and after green roof system. For thermal environment analysis, Thermo-Render 3.0 was used that was developed by Tokyo Industrial College to simulate. The simulation showed that the heat island index before and after the development of tree-planting on rooftop changed maximum $0.86^{\circ}C$ and the surface temperature changed about $20^{\circ}C$. Only with lawn planting, heat reduction effect was great and it means that the green roof system in low-management-light-weight type is enough to see effect. The simulation identified that only lawn planting for green rooftop brought such difference and could lower the heat island index at a narrow area. It is judged that application of green roof system to wider areas might relieve urban heat island phenomenon positively.

  • Low-carbon green waterfront cities for overseas cases were reviewed to propose the direction for Korea. The implications suggested include energy saving by resource circulation, compact land use planning, transit oriented development, and utilization of renewable energy. These in turn suggest the following implementations; (1) Energy saving according to compact city, complex land use, and transit oriented development, (2) Renewable energy use in buildings and daily lives, (3) Expansion of green space for carbon mitigation and improved quality of life, and (4) Water and resource circulation system. We finally discussed that development of the green waterfront cities in Korea requires the fundamentals of low-carbon green waterfront cities achieved by overseas cases study and technical investigation.

  • We achieved a highly efficient green OLED with an efficiency of 30cd/A by using a new electron transport material and optimizing the device structure. The luminous efficiency was 16.8lm/W at $3000cd/m^2$ and the lifetime was over 60,000hr at an initial luminance of $1000cd/m^2$. Furthermore, we obtained a threecomponent RGB white OLED by using the highly efficient green material. This RGB white OLED shows more excellent color reproducibility for full color displays with color filters, compared to a twocomponent white OLED.

  • Purpose - This paper aims to examine the environmental effects of South Korean foreign trade, and the changing relationship between industrial "three wastes" emissions and foreign trade. Design/methodology - Based on time series data of South Korean foreign trade and industrial "three wastes" from 2009 to 2019, a VAR model was used to analyze the long-term internal links and dynamic changes between foreign trade and environmental pollution. Findings - Variance decomposition analysis shows that for the three types of pollutants, self-impact contributes the most to the variance decomposition. It follows that South Korean foreign trade has a certain negative impact on the environment, and this impact has a certain sustainability. Originality/value - This paper contributes to the study on the relationship between foreign trade and environmental pollution. It theoretically proposes a coordinated development path for foreign trade development and green development based on the environmental impact of foreign trade, to provide a reference for the development of collaborative promotion.

  • The purposes of this research are to estimate area of greenable roof and to monitor maintaining of green roofs using World-View 2 images. The contents of this research are development of World-View 2 application technologies for estimation of green roof area and development of monitoring and maintaining of green roofs using World-View 2 images. The available green roof areas in Gwangjin-gu Seoul, a case for this study, were estimated using digital maps and World-View 2 images. The available green roof area is approximately 12.17% ($2,153,700m^2$) of the total area, and the roof vegetation accounts for 0.46% ($80,660m^2$) of the total area. For verification of the extracted roof vegetation, Vworld 3D Desktop map service was applied. The study results may be used as a decision-making tool by the government and local governments in determining the feasibility of green roof projects. In addition, the project implementer may periodically monitor to see whether roof greening has maintained for efficient management of projects, and a vast amount of World-View 2 images may be regularly used before and after the projects to contribute to sharing of satellite images information.

  • The need for this study must be considerable, as being activate of green roofs research that the organization and construction obtain access to more development technologies. Nevertheless, the green roofs system has begun to apply since 1980's, the green roofs technology was restricted to develop without verification of technologies such as a load or water leakage. There is a limit as urethane waterproofing to almost domestic waterproofing materials and methods of construction for general green roofs. The introduction of materials and methods of construction which are appropriated to property of green roofs could be a decisive factor in a long-range durability and economical maintenance cost, moreover, it support to variety construction system and organization. This present paper describes a necessity of waterproofing and root barrier system is one of the sub-organization based on green roofs construction, which have enormously large impact on the durability.

  • This study analyzes the economic effects of reduction of green-belt. Green-belt is a kind of land which is restricted to be developed into housings. It is important for social welfare. It affects the social welfare by two routes. One way is through the housing market process. Development of green-belt into housings increases housing supplies and lowers rents. The other is that it improves the living condition by increasing green spaces. Therefore, the development of green-belt to housing can Improve or worsen the social welfare. This paper analyzes its welfare effects by simulations. The results of the paper show that reduction of green-belt increases housing supply and lowers the rent and asset prices. The social welfare is improved in the model.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the purchase behaviors of those who are consistently using Green cosmetics. k order to identify this purpose, this study compared the consumer characteristics among on-going users of green cosmetics, temporary users, and those who have never used the green cosmetics. Also, this study compared the decision making process between on-going users and temporary users. The data were obtained from a questionnaire completed by women who lived in Seoul (N=362), and were analyzed by t-tests, chi-square test, and ANOVA. The findings of this study are as follows: First, unmarried women aged in 20s and those who have higher education, higher incomes and their own houses were more likely to use Green cosmetics consistently. Second, those who were more interested in environmental problems were more likely to be on-going users of Green cosmetics. Third, those who in on-going group were more likely than temporary group to make internal search, while temporary group was more likely to depend on information obtained from their friends or relatives. Also, on-going group considered alternative criteria more than do temporary group.
