There have been many researches on the optimal military size of unified Korea. However, most studies have used qualitative evaluation methods using subjective data. In addition, two studies incorporating statistical methodologies fail to derive appropriate results due to errors in selection of variables and the use of subjective data. Therefore, in this study, we use the ratio data instead of the country specific defense related data for 30 major countries in the world. We applied the logic of demand and supply of economics. The supply equations were produced by regression linear equation of the active ratio and defense ratio. The demand equations were produced as an inverse curves using the same coordinate system as the supply equation. With such a method, we estimated the appropriate military size and defense ratio for each of conscript and recruit system in unified Korea about 20 - 30 years later.

To evaluate the consequences of possible fisheries regulations of anchovy Engraulis japonicus in the Korea Strait, we developed and applied a simulation-based yield-per-recruit (Y/R) model that considered temperature-dependent growth and size-dependent mortality, covering the egg to adult stages. We projected changes in commercial yield and egg production of anchovy with respect to varying biological reference points of 1) the instantaneous fishing mortality, 2) the minimum fork length of anchovy allowed to catch for protecting smaller anchovy ($L_{c,min}$), and 3) the maximum fork length allowed to catch for protecting bigger anchovy ($L_{c,max}$). Our Y/R model showed that the anchovy yield will be maximized at ca. $1.4{\times}10^6tons$ when $L_{c,min}$ ranges between 42-60 mm or at ca. $0.8{\times}10^6tons$ when $L_{c,max}$ ranges from 88-160 mm. At $L_{c,min}=30mm$, the present minimum length of catch, our simulations indicated that the anchovy yield can reach a maximum of $1.2{\times}10^6tons$ in the long-term when the present fishing effort, which annually yields ca. $0.2{\times}10^6tons$ of anchovy, can be increased by a factor of 28. We expect that our simulation-based Y/R model can be applied to other commercially-important small pelagic species in which the traditional Beverton-Holt Y/R model is difficult to apply.

The study sought to determine the efficient management of Korean aucha perch by estimating the potential yield (PY), which means the maximum sustainable yield (MSY) based on the optimal stock, in the mid-upper region of the Seomjin River watershed from August 2008 to April 2009. The stock assessment was conducted by the swept area method and PY was estimated by a modified fisheries management system based on the allowable biological catch. Also, the yield-per-recruit analysis (Beverton and Holt, 1957) was used to review the efficient management of resource, Coreoperca herzi. The age at first capture ($t_c$) was 1.464 age and converted body length was 7.8 cm. Concerning current fishing intensities, the instantaneous coefficient of fishing mortality (F) was estimated to be 0.061 $year^{-1}$; yield-per-recruit analysis estimated the current yield per recruit as 4.124 g with F and $t_c$. The fishing mortality of Allowable Biological Catch ($F_{ABC}$) based on the current $t_c$ and F was estimated to be 0.401 $year^{-1}$, therefore, the optimum fishing intensities could be achieved at the higher fishing intensity for Coreoperca herzi. The calculated annual stock of Coreoperca herzi was 3,048 kg, the potential yield was estimated to be 861 kg with $t_c$ and $F_{ABC}$ at the fixed current level. Using yield-per-recruit analysis, if F and $t_c$ were set at 0.643 $year^{-1}$ and 3 age, respectively, the yield per recruit would be predicted to increase 3.4-fold, from 4.12 g to 13.84 g.

We examined the state of Korean pomfret(Pampus echinogaster) in Korean waters and considered the management strategy of the stock based on the theory yield Per recruit. It is not facile to discriminate Korean pomfret distributed in Korean waters from silver pomfret (p. argenteus) due to the similarities in their external morphologies. For this rea- son, Korean pomfret has been treated in silver pomfret in fisheries statistics of Korea. In this study, we asserted Korean pomfret from pomfrets caught commercially by the morphology, from which we recognized that Korean pomfret took $60\~70\%$ in catch(in weight) and that the smaller the body length, the higher the proportion of Korean pomfret. Parameters estimated for Korean pomfret were as follows: natural mortality(M) = 0.6, fishing mortality(F) =0.924(mean value for $1986\~1988$), age at recruit to fishery($t_r$) =0.19 yrs, age at first capture($t_c$) : 0.49 yrs, and the rate of recruit of age-0 fish to fishery(Q) = 0.29. The results obtained from the theory of yield per recruit indicated that the present state of stock was below the optimum level of exploitation and that the control of fishing intensity rarely had an effect on the increasing of yield. Accordingly, we conclude that proper management can be made by increasing the current age of 0.49 yrs at first capture to 1.5 yrs.

Population ecological parameters and stock biomass of the purplish washington clam, Saxidomus purpuratus (Sowerby), in the southern coastal areas of Korea were determined based on the fishery data from the Divers Fisheries Cooperative and other available biological data. Instantaneous coefficient of total mortality (Z) of purplish Washington clam was estimated to be 0.7479/year. The estimated instantaneous coefficient of natural mortality (M) was 0.2012/year. From the values of Z and M, the instantaneous coefficient of fishing mortality coefficient (F) for the recent years was calculated to be 0.4578/year. The age of purplish Washington clam at its first capture ($t_c$) was 2.7506 year. Yield-per-recruit and spawning biomass-per-recruit were estimated under harvest strategies that bases on $F_{max}$, $F_{0.1}$, $F_{35%}$ and $F_{40%}$ were shown as 81.60 g, 61.68 g, 115.07 g and 131.51 g, respectively. The acceptable biological catch (ABC) was estimated to be about 1,404 metric tons.

The purpose of the study was to analyze American teacher quality management system and provide it's implications. For this, the study analyzed the main traits of American teacher policy, Pennsylvania State University's teacher cultivation system, Pennsylvania State's teacher certification, selection, and recruit system, the master teacher system of New Jersey and New York State. The main results are as the followings. First, American teacher policy is variously operated by state government and school district based on variety and autonomy. Second, for teacher cultivation in American teacher policy, the evaluation on the teacher cultivation program of teacher cultivation institute(mainly university) is strictly administrated. Third, for teacher certification, various tests for gaining teacher certificate are administered and standardized tests are used for the tests. Fourth, for teacher selection and recruit, there is no special test for selection and teacher recruit is done by contract. Fifth, for quality management using excellent teacher, America is administering master teacher that is similar with master teacher system in Korea. Finally, the innovation of teacher cultivation institute by introducing Every Student Succeeds Act(ESSA) is anticipated. Based on these results, the implications for Korean teacher policy were provided.

To improve the educational system of Korea Maritime Police Agency(KMPA), the authors investigate and evaluate the present course and curricula in details comparing with the systems of US Coast Guard and Japanese Coast Guard As a result, it is suggested that KMPA try to recruit good-quality officers through the diverse route, develop the future-oriented educational, system, adjust the course and curricula to meet KMPA's role and mission for 21st century. Besides, it requires that KMPA establishes its own institute to carry out the recruit training and re-freshening courses for both the officers and enlisted person.
