  • This study aims to analyze the summer human thermal environment in Jeju City's outdoor parking lots by measuring microclimate data and comparing pavement and vegetation albedoes and elements through computer simulations. In measured cases, results due to albedo showed no significance, but there was a significant difference between sunny and shaded areas by trees. The sunny area had a PET (physiological equivalent temperature) in the 'very hot' level, while the shaded area exhibited a 2-step lower 'warm' level. UTCI (universal thermal climate index) also showed that the sunny area was in the 'very strong heat stress' level, whereas the shaded area was 1-step lower in the 'strong heat stress' level, confirming the role of trees in reducing incoming solar radiant energy. Simulation results, using the measured albedoes, closely resembled the measured results. Regarding vegetation, scenarios with a wide canopy, high leaf density, and narrow planting spacing were effective in mitigating the human thermal environment, and the differences due to tree height varied across scenarios. The scenario with the lowest PET value was H9W9L3D8 (tree height 9m, canopy width 9m, leaf area index 3.0, planting spacing 8m), indicating a 0.7-step decrease compared to the current landscaping scenario. Thus, it was confirmed that, among landscaping elements, trees have a significant impact on the summer human thermal environment compared to ground pavement.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the use of mobile phones due to COVID-19. The subjects of this study were those who lived in Jeju City and used their own mobile phone for more than 2 years, and were included in adult men and women aged 15 to 80 years old. The purpose of this study was explained and a questionnaire survey was conducted on 156 people who agreed. The survey period lasted from June 15 to July 4, 2020. As a result, the daily use time and function of the mobile phone, which were used more than before the occurrence of COVID-19, increased. This was a statistically significant trend (p<0.001) with increasing trend after COVID-19 in all age groups. In addition, in the mobile phone function, all age groups used more 'KakaoTalk' than 'call', but it was found that only the group with less than 1 hour of daily using time used the call function a lot.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to elucidate the prevalence of breast feeding and maternal psychosocial predictors affecting the breast feeding practice at six months postpartum. Method: One hundred and sixty one mothers at six months postpartum were conveniently recruited in two public health center in Jeju-city. Subjects completed a well-structured questionnaire regarding the feeding types of the child, maternal self-esteem, the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS), husband support, and marital adjustment scale. The data was analyzed using the $X^2-test$, t-test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and logistic regression. Result: The prevalence of breast feeding at six months postpartum was 29.9%. Predictors of breast feeding practice identified by the logistic regression analysis include first feeding type after delivery, marital adjustment, readiness for maternal role and work state. Conclusion: The prevalence of breast feeding practice was lower than WHO desired at six months postpartum. Therefore, the findings support the need for breast feeding education including interventions focused on improving readiness for maternal role and marital adjustment.

  • In this study, the impact of clustered groundwater usage facilities and the proper amount of groundwater usage in the Daejeong-Hangyeong watershed of Jeju island were evaluated based on the data-driven analysis methods. As the applied data, groundwater level data; the corresponding precipitation data; the groundwater usage amount data (Jeoji, Geumak, Seogwang, and English-education city facilities) were used. The results show that the Geumak usage facility has a large influence centering on the corresponding location; the Seogwang usage facility affects on the downstream area; the English-education usage facility has a great impact around the upstream of the location; the Jeoji usage facility shows an influence around the up- and down-streams of the location. Overall, the influence of operating the clustered groundwater usage facilities in the watershed is prolonged to approximately 5km. Additionally, the appropriate groundwater usage amount to maintain the groundwater base-level was analyzed corresponding to the precipitation. Considering the recent precipitation pattern, there is a need to limit the current amount of groundwater usage to 80%. With increasing the precipitation by 100mm, additional groundwater development of approximately 1,500m3-1,900m3 would be reasonable. All the results of the developed data-driven estimation model can be used as useful information for sustainable groundwater development in the Daejeong-Hangyeong watershed of Jeju island.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the distribution and variation of the anion and cation number in the aerosols at 16 sites in the Jeju area. The average value of anion counts was raged from 449.35 ions/cm3 at Jeju city to 3471.25 ions/cm3 in the Chunjiyeon falls. In order, the lowest Jeju-si < hamdeok < 1100 m < farm < gyorae A < saryoni < jeolmul < gyorae B < geomunoreum < halla forest < hallasan garden < seongpanak < dongbaeksan < jeongbang < wonyang, respectively. There was statistically significant difference between the anion counts of the measured values in the order of elevation. The mean value of cation measurements was from 90 ions/cm3 for Cheonjiyeon, to 729.8 ions/cm3 for Halla forest garden, which showed the highest value. In order, the lowest 729.8 ions/cm3 of Cheonjiyeon < 1100 m < dongbaeksan < Jeju-si < saryoni < wonyang < seongpanak < hamdeok < jeongbang < gyorae B < jeolmul < Farm < gyorae A < halla forest < geomun and < halla garden, respectively. The geographically low area and the high area were measured low and difference in the two ions. The differences between the content of the anion, cation and/or altitude were significant each other in the variance analysis. The correlation between the anion and cation content and/or altitude was statistically significant (r=.396, p<.001). In conclusion, the result of showing the temporal distribution and variation of the anion and cation content in the aerosols in Jeju island forests provides important information for healthcare.

  • A land and sea breeze and the cause of wind are learned through a convection current box experiment in elementary science class. The purpose of this study was to investigate elementary students' perception and inferring process about a land and sea breeze. For this purpose, the 159 elementary students who lived in J city were collected. The results of this study showed that the students who perceived correctly about a land and sea breeze and the cause of wind were only 45 persons(28.3%). And most of the students understood the direction of the wind as they observed in the experiment. That is, most of the students did not understand a direction of a land and sea breeze by a inferring process from the experimental result. They did not pass by a inferring process. These results demand that a new convection current box experimental set is to be developed, as well as the experimental instruction more focused on the inferring process, for the perception of a land and sea breeze and the cause of wind.

  • A basal stem rot disease of potato (Solanum tubersum) grown on hydroponic system in greenhouse was found in Jeju-city, Jeju Province of Korea in January 2001. The symptoms occurred on basel stem and root, and than plants eventually were died. The casual fungus isolate from basal stem rot symptom and identified to be Pythium myriotylum on the basis of mycological characteristics; Main hyphae wide were 8.4 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Oogonia were spherical, smooth, mostly terminal in shape and 26.4∼31.2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Antheridia were 9.6∼14,4${\times}$4.8-9.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Oospores were spherical, smooth, aplerotic in shape and 21.6∼26.4 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. This is the first report on the basal stem rot of potato caused by P. myriotylum in Korea.
