Soft shores are particularly vulnerable to human exploitation; however, they exhibit a variety of habitats which provide refuge for a diversity of flora and fauna. This study describes a survey of 13 soft shores in Hong Kong with information on species diversity, sediment characteristics, shore extent, pollution threat, degree of naturalness, linkage with other ecological habitats, and degree of social/economic importance. Data collected were subjected to multivariate statistical analyses, so as to identify shores that have significant ecological status and conservation value for management purposes.

In this paper, the fire safety management plan and the emergency action program for the railway safety improvement were reviewed. In the fire safety management plan, a series of preventive methods answering to such as a smoke exhaust installation, a fire warning device and a guide inducement will be come into preparation. Also, the damage reducing methods such as complement of fire safety equipments, establishment of refuge & escape system, consolidation of real-time control on fire response and operation procedure will be required for early repressing fire and minimizing fatality.

This study aims to analyse a trend of exoticism which is often mentioned in the contemporary western fashion. I analyse the internal elements of the exoticism in the fashion. By applying these elements to the exoticism of modern fashion, I intended to make it a useful instrument fur interpreting modern fashion. The results of this study are as follows. The internal elements of exoticism are summarized as escapism, curiosity, fantasy, hybridism and pluralism. 1. From the 19th century to the 1960s . The exoticism shown in the western fashion are influenced by such elements as curiosity and escapism. And diverse and plural exotic elements added a fantastic element to the exoticism. 2. After 1960s : Escapism acted much more because people thought exoticism offer a refuge from overall social problems of modern consumer society. Late in the 20th century, fantastic and hybrid element became more prominent in exoticism. And I found pluralistic view point was the other element of exoticism.

In this study, we have studied rail infrastructure related to emergency action to manage the risk when emergency caused by faults of facility or rail vehicle during operation happens. Especially we have compared the effect of emergency action with examining the structure of vehicle, tunnel, bridge and access road, etc which are related to emergency action. Also, we have tried to analyze effects of radio and communication equipment, lifesaving and refuge which could be used for rolling stock, station, control room, tunnel, bridge and etc, and we have presented the way of reporting the emergency to the train driver or crew, control room, outside networks which could be used by passengers in vehicle, station, railroad line. Based on these, we have analyzed the conduct of emergency action in length of time when emergency happens in railway and high-speed railway, and studied the method of which passengers could be guided safely and escape from the scene of the accident.

If a disaster occurs in the underground like subway, disaster response system should minimize the casualties. It must quickly guide passengers to a safe evacuation route. But sometimes the system does not work properly. And then they need distributed disaster response system which make decision autonomously. In this study, we proposed the evacuation route analysis and induction algorithms for creationg passenger evacuation route and offering optimal evacuation route.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the factors that affect nursing students' perception of pediatric safety nursing activities for children during hospitalization. Methods: The study sample included 304 nursing students who had participated in pediatric nursing practice. Data were analyzed using SAS 9.3 program. Results: Regression analysis showed that the model's explanatory power was 37%. Safety policy and procedure, safety priority, disaster experience, and knowing a place of refuge were factors affecting the perception of safety nursing activities for children during hospitalization. Conclusion: Findings show that safety policy and procedures and safety priority are major factors that affect the perception of safety nursing activities and indicate that effective education programs on safety policy and procedure and safety priority are necessary to improve the perception of safety nursing activities.

Nutria Myocastor coypus is one of a well known invasive riparian mammal found species around world from North America to Eurasia and Africa. In South Korea, feral nutrias inhabit areas from the Nakdonggang and Namgang (River) to their tributaries and Upo Wetland where they have had devastating effects on environment. Nevertheless, there has been little research about nutrias in Korea. This study is to analyze the genetic structure of the nutria population in the Upo Wetland and identify the origin of the source populations. Twenty individuals from the Upo Wetland were genotyped using 25 microsatellite loci. When compared with another introduced population, that of the Blackwater Nation Wildlife Refuge in U.S., the Upo population contains considerable genetic variations. Tests for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium and Bayesian clustering analysis suggest the Upo population is genetically structured and has at least two source populations. This preliminary study presents the need for further in-depth studies about this species which should combine genetic and ecological studies.

최근 발생한 부산 해운대 화재 이후 피난 활동이 제한적인 고층 건축물의 화재 안전에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 그러나 현행 규정은 50층 이상의 초고층 건축물을 대상으로 하고 있으며 상대적으로 준 초고층 건축물에 대한 제도적 기반과 연구가 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지하연계복합건축물에 관한 피난 안전구역면적 산정 기준에 대한 적용성을 분석하고자 국외의 관련 기준과 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과, 수용 인원에 관한 기준은 홍콩, 한국, 싱가포르, 중국 순으로 강화 적용하고 있으며 피난안전구역의 면적은 싱가포르의 경우 전체 수용 인원의 50% 이상과 1명당 $0.3m^2$을 전제로 하는 피난안전구역의 면적 기준이 국내의 각 층별 1/10의 면적의 합과 동일한 것으로 분석되었다.

건축기술의 눈부신 발전과 경제적 가치추구 등에 따른 국가 사회적 수요로 인하여 초고층 건축물의 건설물량은 이들 건축물에 대한 효과적인 피난안전대책을 정립하기도 전에 급속히 증가하는 추세이다. 우리나라는 2009년 7월 16일 재정된 건축법 시행령을 통하여 층수가 50층 이상이거나 높이가 200미터 이상인 건축물을 '초고층 건축물'로 규정하고, 이러한 건축물의 피난안전을 위하여 지상층으로부터 최대 30개 층마다 설치하는 대피공간을 '피난안전구역'으로 정의하였다. 이후 2010년 2월 18일 개정령에서는 초고층 건축물의 피난안전구역을 건축물의 '피난층'으로 인정하기에 이르렀다. 그러나 피난대상인원 등에 따른 대피공간의 면적이나 구조 등 내부시설에 대한 설치기준이 없어 피난안전구역으로서의 충분한 신뢰성을 확보하지 못하고 있어 이에 대한 심층적 연구와 기준의 개선이 필요한 실정이다.

Most of the Historic Preservation Areas are very weak to fire disasters. The aim of this study is to build a proposal-scheme for evacuation routes planning at a large-scale disaster in a historic preservation area. The study area is a preservation area called "Hizen-Hama-Shuku" which has many straw-roofed wooden houses in Kashima city, Japan. To achieve this aim, outline of the scheme is discussed. The proposal-scheme of evacuation routes consists of objectives to propose, target time to evacuate for the refuge place, evaluation method, and procedures. The existing condition and the measures are evaluated using the software "SimTread".
