목적 : Insuln-like growth factor(IGF)-I및 -II는 성장인자로 일군의 IGF-binding protein(IGFBP)에 의하여 그 작용이 조절된다. IGF-I은 백서 신장에서 발견되고 대사효과와 성장효과를 갖고 있다. 이번 연구는 백서에서 신장발육과 허혈성 신손상 후 재생과정 동안에 IGFBP의 발현이 변화하는지를 보고자 한다. 방법 : 태생 15주부터 성숙 할때까지 백서 신장에서 IGFBP 발현의 변화를 알아보기 위해 Northern blotting을 시행하였고, 급성신부전 백서의 신장에서 IGF-IGBP axis의 변화를 보기 위해 Northern blotting과 Immunohisto-chemistry를 이용하였다. 결과 : IGFBP-1과 -3는 태생기에는 거의 발현되지 않다가 출생 후 7일째부터 성숙이 끝날 때까지 점진적으로 증가하였다. 반면에 IGFBP-2와 -5는 태생기에 많이 발현되고, IGFBP-2는 출생 후 7일째까지 IGFBP-5는 30일째까지 높은 농도를 유지하다가 급격히 감소하였다. 한편 IGFBP-4는 태생기에 중등도로 발현되는데 출생 후 증가하기 시작하여 7일째 가장 많이 발현되다가 급격히 감소하였다. 신손상 후 IGFBP의 변화를 보면 IGFBP-1과 -4는 재생기간 동안 3-5배 증가되다가 정상으로 회복된 반면 IGFBP-3와 IGFBP Related Protein-1(IGFBPrP-1) 은 신손상 1일째에는 약간 감소하다가 그후 증가하여 정상보다 약간 높은 수준을 유지하였다. 결론 : 백서 신장에서 신장구조나 기능의 발달, 분화 및 재생에 대한 IGF의 작용을 조절할 수 있는 IGFBP 발현에 현저한 변화가 있었다.

본 연구는 서울시 북부교육청에서 실시하고 있는 저소득층 학생을 위한 학교도서관 내 학부모 멘토링 프로그램을 조사 분석하기 위하여 서울북부지역 5개 초등학교에서 실시하고 있는 학교도서관 학부모 멘토링 프로그램을 다각적으로 분석하였다. 우선 학교별 멘토링 현황을 분석하고 멘토, 멘티, 전담자에 대한 설문조사 및 담임교사와 방과 후 교사를 포함한 면담조사를 실시하였으며 멘토링 후에 멘토가 작성한 멘토링 활동일지를 분석하였다. 연구결과로 학교도서관 학부모 멘토링 프로그램은 학교도서관의 역할을 확대하고 사회적으로 소외받을 수 있는 대상아동에 대하여 독서를 통하여 더 넓은 세계를 접하도록 함으로써 책과 함께 한 작은 소통이 궁극적으로 사회양극화 해소를 위한 하나의 계기를 만들어 가고 있음을 밝히고 있다.

Predictability of Northern Hemisphere blocking in the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) Global Data Assimilation and Prediction System (GDAPS) is evaluated for the period of July 2016 to May 2017. Using the operational model output, blocking is defined by a meridional gradient reversal of 500-hPa geopotential height as Tibaldi-Molteni Index. Its predictability is quantified by computing the critical success index and bias score against ERA-Interim data. It turns out that Northwest Pacific blockings, among others, are reasonably well predicted with a forecast lead time of 2~3 days. The highest prediction skill is found in spring with 3.5 lead days, whereas the lowest prediction skill is observed in autumn with 2.25 lead days. Although further analyses are needed with longer dataset, this result suggests that Northern Hemisphere blocking is not well predicted in the operational weather prediction model beyond a short-term weather prediction limit. In the spring, summer, and autumn periods, there was a tendency to overestimate the Western North Pacific blocking.

The diffuse attenuation coefficient for downwelling irradiance $(K_d({\lambda}))$ is an important parameter for ocean studies. Based on the optical profile data measured during three cruises in the northern South China Sea in autumn from 2003 to 2005, variations in the $K_d({\lambda})spectra$ were analyzed. The variability of $K_d({\lambda})$ shows much distinct features both in magnitude and spectra shape. The $K_d({\lambda})value$ are much higher in costal waters than that of open oceanic waters and the blue-to-green(443/555) ratios of $K_d({\lambda})$ tends to increases with the chlorophyll a concentration ([Chl a]) from open ocean to coastal waters. These characteristics can be explained primarily by the increasing of $a_{w+p}(433)/a_{w+p}(555)$ with [Chl a]. In the short waveband, the relation between $K_d({\lambda})-K_w({\lambda})$ and [Chl a] can be well described by a power law function, suggesting the large contribution of phytoplankton to the variations in $K_d({\lambda})$. As for the spectral model of the diffuse attenuation coefficient, there are good linear relationships between $K_d(490)$ and $K_d({\lambda})$ at other wavelengths, with the slope parameter and the intercept following linear functions within the spectral range $412{\sim}555$ nm. These variabilities of $K_d({\lambda})$ provided much useful information for us to study the bio-optical properties in the northern South China Sea.

A distribution map of black pine, Pinus thunbergii, in south Korea was prepared through field surveys. According to Mirov(1967), the range of black pine is limited in east Asia, Japan and Korea; its northern limit is at about 41。34' north and its southern limit on Takara island, south Kyushu, at 29。 north. According to the present map, its northern limit coincided with the isopath of warmth index 100 by Yim(1977). The density of pine in grid mesh, about 4 km * 4 km, was higher at costal area than that in inland area, and it was also higher at sea side slope than the opposite slope of the same mountain. This suggests that the ecological distribution of black pine is greatly affected by salt content of the soil or the optimal range of summed temperature for the pine growth.

The King Hyo-Jong is the 17th King in the Chosun dynasty. King Hyo-Jong carried forward the subjugation of the northern areas, but the subjugation of the northern areas was failed for the reason that he was died in 41 years old. After that time, his death is wrapt in a shround of suspicion, such as a rumor of killing by poison. But the cause of his death in direct was the septicemia arised from the boil. Besides, We suppose that he was afflicted with gout and renal failure.

Molecular regulation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) was investigated in deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertension. The expression of renin, angiotensinogen and angiotensin II receptor genes in the kidney and liver was determined by Northern blot analysis in rats which were made DOCA-salt hypertensive over the period of 2 or 4 weeks. Along with the hypertension, renin mRNA was decreased in the remnant kidney. The expression of angiotensinogen gene was not significantly altered in the kidney, but was significantly decreased in the liver. The expression of angiotensin II receptor gene was increased in the kidney, while it remained unaltered in the liver. The duration of hypertension did not affect the altered gene expression. It is suggested that the components of RAS are transcriptionally regulated in DOCA-salt hypertension in a tissue-specific manner.

This study was undertaken to examine the profit efficiency and its determining factors, the investment opportunity, and the challenges of shea butter producers in the northern region of Ghana. The methods employed in this research were the Stochastic Profit Frontier (SPF) model, gain-cost and investment return analyses, as well as Kendall's W statistic using primary data collected from 120 purposively-selected respondents. Results from the analysis indicated that profit efficiency was positively influenced by sex, household size, marital status, educational level, transportation cost, store rent, and price of shea nut with a gain in profit efficiency of 58.5%. The investment analysis demonstrated a net gain per person of $8,077 equivalent to GH₵ 28,270 Ghanaian cedi (GH₵) using 2016 exchange rate (GH₵ 3.5 = $1). Among the challenges identified, the poor quality of shea nuts was the most prioritised challenge with 72.8% agreement among the respondents. Based on these findings, it was recommended that proper training and education, as well as improvement in shea nut quality, should be promoted to improve the profit efficiency of shea butter producers.

Seoul National University General Circulation Model (SNUGCM) has been run for 100 years to obtain daily temperature and meridional velocity at the Northern lower stratosphere. The model results are compared with the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data. The polar temperature and the eddy heat flux from the model show that the model-produced climatology has well-known cold bias and weaker planetary wave activities. The model climatology also has a lag in the seasonal evolution. The relationship between the model-produced polar temperature and the eddy heat flux is investigated with respect to the interannual and decadal time scales. The interannual variation of the polar temperature is related with both total and stationary eddy heat flux in January and March, which is in agreement with observation. The model, however, does not reproduce the relationship between the decadal variation of the polar temperature and transient eddy heat flux, which is revealed in the observed data.
