최근에 중국의 북서쪽 지방이 급격하게 사막화가 진행되면서 동아시아 지역에서 황사현상의 강도와 발생빈도가 증가하고 있다. 한반도에서도 2002년 봄철에는 예년에 비하여 황사현상이 자주 발생하였는데 특히 3월 21-22일 과 4월 7-8일 에는 예전에 찾아 볼 수 없을 정도의 강한 황사가 한반도에서 관측되었다 이 연구에서는 WMO 종관관측소의 먼지발생 보고 자료 (Chun, 1996; In and Park, 2002)를 분석하여 2002년 봄철에 관측된 황사의 발원지를 확인하고 먼지발생과 관련한 기상조건을 살펴보고자 한다. (중략)

This study examines recent trends in income inequality among the elderly in Korea. Aggregate income inequality trends are explained by examining evidence from inequality index decomposition by population subgroup and by income source. Data come from Korean Labor and Income Panel Study(KLIPS). The results are as follows. First, elderly income inequality increased from 1999 to 2002, and then decreased until 2008. Second, household composition changes appear to have disequalizing influence. The proportion of elderly people who are economically dependent on non-elderly family member or living with adult children has declined. Equalizing influence of private transfers also decreased between 2002 and 2008. These results indicate that the redistributive role of family has weakened over time. Third, the improvement of education level and changing occupational structure among the elderly household head contributed to increase in elderly income inequality. Fourth, earning's factor share has declined steadily, and the diminishing role of earnings provides equalizing influence on elderly income inequality from 2002 to 2008. Fifth, the impact of recent expansion of social insurance has changed over time. Inequality contribution of social insurance income increased from 1999 to 2002, and then decreased from 2002 to 2008.

Contents of the specific components in the natural mineral water was discussed in relation to the well depth and geology. According to water quality data during the last five years(1998~2002), the nitrate and fluoride concentrations, and pH averaged 0.89~ 1.09 mg/L, 0.37~0.45 mg/L, and 7.30~7.59, respectively. These values are the similar range to those of generalized groundwater having same well depths, implying that shallow groundwaters flow into the production wells. In general, no clear relationships between the water quality, well depth, and geology were found. The average arsenic concentration of the natural mineral water increased from 0.0024 mg/L in 1999 to 0.0066 mg/L in 2002. The percentage of production well with arsenic level higher than 0.001 mg/L also increased from 20.1% in 1999 to 64.9% in 2002. In 2002, 11 out of 57 production wells exceed 0.001 mg/L which will be announced as a new arsenic standard for drinking water by USEPA.

This paper focuses on examining and evaluating results of the Korean Geodetic Datum 2002 (KGD2002) of the national horizontal network adjustment. To this end, 137 geodetic control points were independently observed by GPS technology. After processing all the observations, their results were compared with ones derived by the national network adjustment which was recently performed to determine new KGD 2002 coordinate sets over the national geodetic control points. The comparisons results showed that RMSE was ${\pm}2.7cm$ and ${pm}6.5cm$ in horizontal and vertical component in the case of GPS network, whereas RMSE was ${\pm}3.0cm$, in horizontal component in the case of EDM network.

Bunker-C is sold at the different price in the market for international bunkering and for export, though the quality of bunker-c is not much different in two markets. The price difference in two markets tends to increase since 2002 in Korea. This study shows that there is a possibility for a structural change in the price difference in two markets in Korea around June, 2002. In the search for possible explanations for this structural change, empirical analyses found that the price difference in Singapore, which had not have any explanatory power before June, 2002, has explained the price difference in Korea after July, 2002. Other explanatory variable for the price difference was the growth rate of crude oil price in the previous period. The empirical results suggest that the price difference in bunkering market and export market might be explained by the price discrimination which is adopted as a competitive strategy by oil companies in competing with Singapore.

The study examined the shift in the attitudes of college students regarding familial gender roles between 1991 to 2002. The results are as follows. (a)There were changes toward the egalitarian direction in familial-related gender role attitudes between 1991 and 2002, in both male and female college students. (b)Yet, despite of these changes toward egalitarianism, Female colleges students exhibited the more egalitarian familial gender role attitudes than their male counterparts, both in 1991 and 2002. (c)The shift toward more egalitarian attitudies was most pronounced in couples' equal participation in decision making, the sharing of housework, and women's participation in labor force. however, the shift toward egalitarian attitudies was less pronounced in the issues concerning outside home activities of the mothers with infants. Based on the results, implication for the future family and family education programs were discussed.

When the long - lasting stationary fronts were pushed northward by the Pacific Highs in late July, mostly clear skies with intermittent showers were a typical weather of August in Korea. However, torrential rains and flash floods are now a seasonal event of August in recent years. Some meteorologists suspect this unusual phenomenon might be connected with the global change and are concerned about the possibility of change in summer climatic pattern in Korea. August of year 2002 must be remembered to be one of the record breaking months with respect to the rainfall events. In this paper, we analyzed the weather and crop data nationwide for August in 2002, and suggest a few countermeasures necessary to overcome the wet and cool summer impacts on agricultural sector.

2002년 봄철에는 예년에 비하여 황사현상이 자주 발생하였는데 특히 3월 21-22일 과 4월 7-8일에는 예전에 찾아 볼 수 없을 정도의 강한 황사가 한반도에서 관측되었다. 이 사례들로 인하여 황사로 인한 재해를 방지하기 위하여 황사의 정량적인 예보가 필요함을 인식하게 되었고 이를 위해서 황사의 발생과 수송과정에 대한 수치모델의 정립이 요구된다고 하겠다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 황사의 발생을 예측하고 정량적으로 예보하기 위한 모델을 구축하고 2002년 두 차례의 강한 황사 사례에 적용하여 그 모델을 개선하고자 한다. (중략)

Objectives : This study was conducted to look over the current status of psychiatric consultation in a general hospital. Methods : We analyzed 664 medical records : 317 in 2002 and 347 in 1997, and compared the records of 1997 and 2002. Results 1) The average age of the patients increased from 45.9 years(1997) to 53.2 years of age (2002). Dividing the referred patients into 3 age-brackets as below 40, between 40 and 60, and above 60, the number of patients in the age group above 60 was significantly increased, more prominently in women. 2) Overall consultation rate was 2.29% in 2002 and 2.2% in 1997 .44.2% and 57.1% of the whole referrals were from the department of internal medicine in each year, and the department of rehabilitation medicine was leading in consultation rate in both years. 3) 'Mood disorders' and 'Substance related disorders' were the most frequent diagnoses in 2002 and 1997 respectively. 4) Use of psychotropic drugs was the most frequent recommendations of psychiatric consultation, in both years, and the most frequently prescribed drugs were anti-anxiety drugs in both years. The use of SSRI and atypical anti-psychotics were increased, while the use of typical anti-psychotics was decreased significantly in 2002. Conclusion : In 2002, compared with 1997, the average age of the patients was increased, and the consultation of the patients with the diagnosis of 'mood disorders' and 'cognitive disorders' was done more frequently than in 1997. The recommendation to use psychotropic drugs was well accepted, but the concern to diagnostic procedure was relatively low.
