지리 중심에 대해서 확실하게 정립된 정의와 이에 대한 여러 가지 방식이 존재하기 때문에 연구자들은 지리 중심을 산출하는데 있어 많은 어려움을 겪는다. 또한 지표면은 굴곡이 심하고 다양한 암상으로 구성되어 밀도 분포가 매우 불균질하고 그 경계 또한 불규칙한 굴곡이기 때문에 중심점을 구한다는 것이 매우 어렵다. 따라서 한 지역에 중심의 정의와 산출 방식에 따라서 여러 중심점이 존재 할 수 있는 것이다. 본 연구의 목적은 지리 정보 시스템 분석을 통하여 남한 내륙의 지리적, 지질학적 중심지를 정확히 밝히고 학술적으로 정립하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 기존 연구된 사료 수집은 물론 자료 처리를 위한 수치 지형도, 수치 지질도 등의 자료 등을 수집하였다. 또한 지질 및 지리정보 시스템 구축을 위한 사전 준비 작업으로 한국에서 적용된 사례 및 외국의 적용 사례를 파악하고 데이터 수집 및 처리 과정을 적용해 보았다. 그리고 지리 정보 시스템의 분석 개념을 설명함으로써 이 분석 방법이 얼마나 타당한 분석 방법인지에 대해서 고찰해보았다. 중심을 구하기 위해 적용된 조건은 지각이 등밀도 평면일 경우와 암상에 따라 불균질한 평면일 경우로 가정하였으며 이에 따른 남한 내륙의 무게 중심점 및 기하학적인 중심점은 매우 다양하게 산출되었다. 그 결과 단순 남한 내륙의 해안선 경계를 이용한 여러 중심점들은 대체적으로 충청북도 남부에 밀집하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Objectives: This study was performed to identify the epidemiological features of a food poisoning outbreak in a company cafeteria located in Chungcheongnam-do Province, Korea in June of 2020 and to suggest preventive measures for a similar incidence. Methods: A total of 84 patients with acute gastroenteritis were examined. Environmental samples were obtained from 16 food handlers, six food utensils, 135 preserved foods served over three days and nine menus, and six drinking water samples. These are analyzed to detect viruses and bacteria. Results: Ninety-four out of the 402 people who were served meals (23.4%) predominantly showed symptoms of diarrhea, and the number was over 3 times. Among the 84 patients under investigation, 17 cases (20.2%) were positive for Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) and 18 cases were positive for Clostridium (C.) perfringens (21.4%). Based on the investigation, it was concluded that the main pathogens were EPEC and C. perfringens. For EPEC, it was detected in three of the food service employees and in the preserved food and curry rice. The results of pulsed field gel electrophoresis indicate that all EPEC cases are closely related except for one food service employee. Assuming that isolated EPEC originated from the preserved food, the incubation period is about 25 hours. The origin of the C. perfringens was not determined as it was not detected in the food service employees or environmental samples. Conclusions: This case suggests that food provided in group food service centers must be thoroughly managed. In addition, identifying the pathogens in preserved food is very important for tracing the causes of food poisoning, so food must be preserved in an appropriate condition. To prevent similar food poisoning cases, analyzing cases based on epidemiological investigation and sharing the results is needed.

The objective of present study was to investigate the effect of seasons on reproductive performance of Hanwoo and Holstein heifers. Heat stress in summer or cold stress in winter stress to Hanwoo and Holstein heifers may bring reproduction failure, which would pose an important economic loss, even around Daegwallyeong region located in high mountainous area. Seasonal differences in the serum levels of LH, FSH and progesterone ($P_4$) in response to environmental factors (hot and cold) out of 20 pubertal Hanwoo heifers in Daegwallyeong, Gangwon Province and 20 non-lactating Holstein heifers in Chonan city of Republic of Korea at 2-3 years of age were compared. Blood samples for hormonal analysis were from jugular vein after detection of estrus repeatedly over four seasons within four-week intervals (Spring: May to June, Summer: July to August, Autumn: October to November and Winter: January to February). In Hanwoo heifer population, averages of LH and FSH concentration in spring and in summer were greater compared to those in winter (p<0.05). LH or FSH levels tended to be greater (p=0.06) in spring and less (p=0.09) in winter compared to the levels in autumn. Only in summer, cattle seemed to show lower LH or FSH secretion (p<0.05). Similar to the results in Hanwoo heifers, the serum concentrations of LH and FSH in Holstein heifers decreased further by heat stress in summer when P 4 levels were high during luteal phase. The results demonstrate significant effect of summer heat on reproduction of Hanwoo or Holstein heifers. Although parameters indicating the extent of heat stress were not measured in this study, we suggest that serum hormone levels could be considered as successful indicators of summer heat stress condition for Hanwoo and Holstein heifers even under rather cool summer climate.

Background : Since March 2009, when the first patient of novel influenza A (H1N1) was reported, many deaths have occurred in North and Central America. The start of the 2009 influenza pandemic was declared by WHO Director-General Dr. Margaret Chan on 11 June 2009, and the level of influenza pandemic alert raised from phase 5 to phase 6. There was no vaccine yet developed, and many experts worried that the novel H1N1 virus could kill as many or more as did the influenza pandemic in 1918-1919. Objective : To evaluate the possibility of treatment for 2009 novel influenza A (H1N1) using herbal remedies and other non-conventional therapies. Methods : We researched the clinical studies for novel H1N1 influenza virus-related herbal medicine or non-conventional medicine treatment using internet search engines including PubMed and CNKI. In addition, we reviewed many reports and clinical practice guidelines (CPG) for influenza A (H1N1). Results : Two case series were selected after reviewing 701 papers, and two CPG published by the Chinese government and Jilin province identified. They reported that the clinical symptoms were no more significant than seasonal influenza, and the condition of patients more than 45 years old was milder than those less than 45 years old. There are no patients with gastric problems, and oseltamivir has been used at the same time in all patients. Conclusion : The efficacy and effectiveness of herbal medicine and other non-conventional treatments for the novel influenza A (H1N1) is questionable, and more studies are needed to draw a firm conclusion. However, in the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) experience in 2002/2003, it was demonstrated that herbal medicine can relieve all symptoms of SARS patients, promote absorption of lung inflammation, improve the degree of blood oxygen saturation, regulate immunological functions, reduce the required dosage of glucocorticoid and other medicines, and reduce case fatality rate. In light of the current situation that there is no vaccine or conventional treatment yet available, the study of herbal medicine and other non-conventional therapies are also necessary for appropriate evaluation.

Orf virus (ORFV), a member of genus Parapoxvirus (family-Poxviridae), a causative agent of contagious ecthyma in sheep and goat leading to a condition commonly known as vesicular dermatitis. Recently, twelve goats from Iksan in Jeonbuk province were observed with clinical signs like necrotic vesicular lesions around the mucosa of mouth, nasal cavity, eye, ear, teats, abdomen and groin. Based on these clinical symptoms, contagious ecthyma infection was suspected. The skin scrapping was collected from lesions for isolation of DNA and subsequent PCR amplification of ORFV specific 235 bp region of B2L gene. All of the samples were found positive by PCR analysis. Sequencing and further phylogenetic analysis of the PCR product revealed 100% identity to Japan isolate of ORFV (Okinawa, GenBank accession number AB080769), and showed 99.6% of similarity to New Zealand strain (NZ-2, GenBank accession number U06671). It was concluded that ORFV strain detected in the present study is homologous to Japan isolate and New Zealand strain. The PCR test based on amplification of B2L gene is a highly useful tools for rapid and specific diagnosis of contagious ecthyma.

A Study was made to improve soil and water temperature and mechanized farming for a wetted paddy under the influence of artesian groundwater located at Samcheon-Dong, Chuncheon City, Kangweon Province. Half perforated PVC drainage pipes were installed in the test paddy to observe temperature change of water and soil. The temperature of the water in the paddy and soil itself raised significantly after the installation of the half perforated PVC pipes. A subsequent improvement of growth and yield of rice on the paddy was achieved. Harvesting operation was also improved with firm ground condition so that cutting and threshing could be done simultaneously within the paddy plot. Following results were obtained from the study. 1.Temperature of the water in a paddy under the influence of artesian groundwater was not changed notably although air temperature was fluctuated during the crop period. Soil temperature was mostly affected by the artesian groundwater. However, the half perforated PVC pipe drainage system made it possible to raise temperature of water and soil remarkably up to the level of optimum farming. 2.Total precipitation was 534.Omm during the crop period of the paddy for 118 days from May 26 to September 20 in 1992. Due to heavy rainfalls of 105.6mm and 109.8mm occurred on August 7 and August 27.1992, respectively, the rate of the artesian groundwater increased to 35 litter per minute with two to three days of time lag. 3.Average rate of the artesian groundwater was 28 litter per minute from the one year of observation. The rate varied by 0.7 to 1.3 times of average during the observation period. Peak rate of the artesian groundwater decreased to 14.5 litter per minute when daily precipitation maintained at the amount of 20 to 30mm for a long time period. Contrarily, it showed a tendency to increase to 35 to 40 litter per minute when heavier precipitation of 50 to l00mm occurred in a short period of three to five days. 4.Growth and yield of Yemyung variety of rice planted on the paddy that was facilitated with a drainage system with half perforated PVC pipes were confirmed at a normal level, while paddy without this perporated drainage system showed abnormal growth with low yield.

본 연구는 우리나라 상업용 온실의 보온성능 및 광투과 성능을 개선할 수 있는 피복방식을 결정하는데 필요한 자료를 제공하기 위하여 토마토 재배용 실험온실의 세 가지 피복방식에 대한 보온효과 및 광투과 특성을 평가하였으며 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 공기주입 이중피복온실과 관행 이중피복온실의 관류열손실량이 거의 비슷한 것으로 나타났으나 외부기온이 비슷할 때 피복재와 보온커튼 사이의 온도가 공기주입 이중피복온실이 더 낮게 나타난 것은 공기주입 이중피복온실의 경우 나비식 천창의 틈새로 인한 환기전열손실이 크기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 공기주입 이중피복온실에서 나비식 천창을 사용할 경우 틈새 환기전열손실을 줄일 수 있는 대책이 수립되어야 할 것으로 판단된다. 일중피복 온실과 관행이중피복온실의 관류열전달계수에 대한 온실 실험결과와 모형실험결과를 비교한 결과 모두 비슷한 값을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 측정된 관류열전달계수가 타당성 있는 값임을 보여주는 것이며 향후 온실의 난방설계시 직접 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 공기주입 이중피복온실이 비록 일중피복온실보다는 광투과율이 낮으나 동일한 이중피복온실인 관행이중피복온실보다 광투과율이 높기 때문에 보온을 위해서 이중피복을 설치할 경우에 광투과율을 확보하기 위해서는 공기주입 이중피복방식을 채택하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다. 공기주입 이중피복온실에 비해 일중피복온실의 피복재 내부표면에서 발생하는 결로량이 큰 이유는 일중피복온실의 피복재 내부표면온도가 훨씬 낮기 때문에 피복재에서의 포화습도가 작아져 내부공기의 절대습도와의 차이가 증가하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.
