2001년 9.11 테러 이후 미국은 테러와의 전쟁을 선포하면서 아프가니스탄과 이라크침공하여 단기간에 정규전 승리를 이끌었다. 하지만 이후 발생한 다수의 테러를 통제하지 못해 전후 국가 재건을 돕는 안정화 작전에 상당시간이 소요되면서, 전후 테러활동의 분석에 대한 관심이 높아지게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 시공간 종속성을 반영하는 베이지안 계층 모형을 이용해 2003년부터 2010년까지 이라크에서 발생한 테러 자료를 기반으로 시·공간 요인, 자치구별 인구·종교와 같은 예측 변수들과 자치구별 테러 빈도수와의 관계를 분석하고, 2011년의 테러 위협을 예측하였다. 이렇게 구한 예측치를 바탕으로 해당지역 담당 군 지휘관이 효율적인 부대 배치를 통해 테러방지에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Fine Dust in Korea has been classified as a social disaster since 2019 due to continuous increase in concentration of Particulate Matter 10(PM 10) and PM 2.5. The fine dust issue has negative physical and mental impacts, especially on vulnerable population including children and the elderly. Seoul metropolitan government have installed fine dust shelters since 2019. However, there is a lack of research that evaluates spatiotemporal distribution of these facilities. Therefore, the first aim of this study is to find the relationship between PM levels and dust scattering construction sites, or air pollutant emission sites through in depth spatial analyses. The second purpose is to analyze the spatial distribution of PM shelters in Seoul, and to evaluate the location efficiency of them. Kernel density, krigging, and network analyses were conducted, and floating population was considered instead of census data for this research. The reults of network analysis based on the road system showed that Yangcheon-gu, Songpa-gu, Seongbuk-gu, and Dobong-gu were found to need additional fine dust shelters. Also, the results from analyzing the floating population that includes children and the elderly showed that Songpa-gu, Seodaemun-gu, Gangdong-gu, Seocho-gu, and Dongdaemun-gu need more placements of find dust shelters. The results of this study are expected to provide implications for urban planners to enhance find dust shelter placement in urban areas, and vulnerable population issues would be considered in many ways.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of older adult's head-turn gait on gait parameters by comparing with head oriented forward gait and to provide criteria for their risk of falling compared to young adult. Methods: The subjects were 19 young adults in their 20s and 18 older adults in their 60s or above residing in Daegu or Gyeongsangbuk-do. To evaluate their gait parameters, spatiotemporal gait parameters were measured using a gait analysis tool (Legsys, BioSensics, USA) under two conditions: 1) walking while keeping one's eyes forward and 2) walking while turning the head. The measurement for each test was performed after one practice session, and the mean value of three measurements was analyzed. The collected data were statistically processed using a two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) to compare any differences in gait parameters between the two groups under the two conditions. The statistical significance level was set at α=0.05. Results: According to the comparison of gait parameters in young adult and older adult between the head oriented forward gait and head-turn gait, statistically significant differences were observed in two parameters: stride length according to the height ratio and stride speed obtained by dividing the stride length according to the height ratio by time (p<0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that the head-turn gait causes greater differences in stride length and speed among older adult than in young adult and therefore can act as a cause of falling.

This study provides an overview of the current status of clonorchiasis and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), and their relationship in Korea during 2012-2020. Data were obtained from the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service of Korea. Cluster, trend, and correlation analyses were performed. Gyeongsangnam-do and Seoul had the highest average number of cases (1,026 and 4,208) and adjusted rate (306 and 424) for clonorchiasis and CCA, respectively. The most likely clusters (MLC) for clonorchiasis and CCA were Busan/Gyeongsangnam-do/Ulsan/Daegu/Gyeongsangbuk-do (Relative Risk; RR=4.55, Likelihood Ratio; LLR=9,131.115) joint cluster and Seoul (RR=2.29, LLR=7,602.472), respectively. The MLC for clonorchiasis was in the southeastern part of Korea, while that for CCA was in the southern part. Clonorchiasis showed a decreasing trend in the southeastern districts, while increased in the southwestern districts. Cities in the central region had a decreasing trend, while the western districts had an increasing trend. In most adults (30-59), infection rate of clonorchiasis showed a significant decrease until 2018, while thereafter increased, although not significant. CCA showed a sharply decreasing tendency. The incidence of clonorchiasis and CCA were positively correlated. In general, the correlation was weak (r=0.39, P<0.001), but it was strongly positive around the 4 river basins (r=0.74, P<0.001). This study might provide an analytic basis for developing an effective system against clonorchiasis and CCA.

Purpose: Pes planus is a common foot deformity that involves the loss of the medial longitudinal arch. The medial longitudinal arch deformity is usually asymptomatic; however, it can lead to an increased risk of pain and injury. Low-Dye taping is designed to treat plantar heel pain and pes planus. However, low-Dye taping is relatively complex, and a considerable amount of time is required to apply the tape correctly. The purpose of this study was to compare the acute effect of two different types of taping (low-Dye taping and modified Mulligan taping) on arch reformation, plantar pressure, and gait characteristics in participants with asymptomatic flexible pes planus. Methods: Twenty subjects (9 males and 11 females; mean age = 21.95 years) with asymptomatic flexible pes planus voluntarily participated in this study. Arch reformation was evaluated using navicular height measurements. Changes in plantar pressure distribution were measured using BioRecue equipment. Gait parameters were measured using spatiotemporal data collected during consecutive gait cycles using a G-WALK device. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the three different conditions (i.e., bare foot, low-Dye taping, and modified Mulligan taping) for each variable. Results: Navicular height was significantly increased in subjects who underwent the two types of taping compared to those who experienced the bare foot condition. The plantar pressure was significantly shifted to the posterolateral area after modified Mulligan taping compared with the bare foot condition. There were no significant differences in the gait parameters. Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that modified Mulligan taping has a similar effect to low-Dye taping, and modified Mulligan taping is a simpler method than low-Dye taping.

Water temperature affects plankton survival and growth. The dinoflagellate Shimiella gracilenta survives using the plastids of ingested prey, indicating kleptoplastidy. However, studies on the effects of water temperature on kleptoplastidic dinoflagellates are lacking. We explored the growth and ingestion rates of S. gracilenta as a function of water temperature. Furthermore, using data on its spatiotemporal distribution in Korean coastal waters during 2015-2018, we predicted its distribution under elevated temperature conditions of +2, +4, and +6℃. Growth rates of S. gracilenta with and without Teleaulax amphioxeia prey as well as ingestion rates were significantly affected by water temperature. Growth rates of S. gracilenta with and without prey were positive or zero at 5-25℃ but were negative at ≥30℃. The maximum growth rate of S. gracilenta with T. amphioxeia was 0.85 d^-1, achieved at 25℃, and 0.21 d^-1 at 20℃ without prey. The ingestion rate of S. gracilenta on T. amphioxeia at 25℃ (0.05 ng C predator^-1 d^-1) was greater than that at 20℃ (0.04 ng C predator^-1 d^-1). Thus, feeding may shift the optimal temperature for the maximum growth rate of S. gracilenta from 20 to 25℃. In spring and winter, the distributions of S. gracilenta under elevated temperature conditions were predicted not to differ from those during 2015-2018. However, S. gracilenta was predicted not to survive at some additional stations under elevated temperature conditions of +2, +4, and +6℃ in summer or under elevated temperature conditions of +6℃ in autumn. Therefore, global warming may affect the distribution of S. gracilenta.

Purpose : The study aims to determine the effects of virtual and non-virtual realities in a normal person's mirror walk on gait characteristics. Methods : Twenty male adults (Age: 27.8 ± 5.8 years) participated in the study. Reflection markers were attached to the subjects for motion analysis, and they walked in virtual reality environments with mirrors by wearing goggles that showed them the virtual environments. After walking in virtual environments, the subjects walked in non-virtual environments with mirrors a certain distance away after taking a 5 min break. To prevent the order effect caused by the experiential difference of gait order, the subjects were randomly classified into groups of 10 and the order was differentiated. During each walk, an infrared camera was used to detect motion and the marker positions were saved in real time. Results : Comparison between the virtual and non-virtual reality mirror walks showed that the movable range of the leg joints (ankle, knee, and hip joints), body joints (sacroiliac and atlantoaxial joints), and arm joints (shoulder and wrist joints) significantly differed. Temporal characteristics showed that compared to non-virtual gaits, the virtual gaits were slower and the cycle time and double limb support time of virtual gaits were longer. Furthermore, spacial characteristics showed that compared to non-virtual gaits, virtual gaits had shorter steps and stride lengths and longer stride width and horizontally longer center of movement. Conclusion : The reduction in the joint movement in virtual reality compared to that in non-virtual reality is due to adverse effects on balance and efficiency during walking. Moreover, the spatiotemporal characteristics change based on the gait mechanisms for balance, exhibiting that virtual walks are more demanding than non-virtual walks. However, note that the subject group is a normal group with no abnormalities in gait and balance and it is unclear whether the decrease in performance is due to the environment or fear. Therefore, the effects of the subject group's improvement and fear on the results need to be analyzed in future studies.

전 세계적으로 지구 온난화로 인해 발생한 가뭄은 사회적, 경제적, 환경적으로 막대한 피해를 야기하고 있다. 국내의 경우, 2022년부터 현재까지 지속되고 있는 가뭄 상황은 강수의 지역적 편차로 인해 남부 지역 중심으로 극심한 피해가 발생하였다. 남부 지역의 주요 용수공급원인 영산강, 섬진강권역의 용수 공급율은 예년의 57%(3.8억 톤)에 불과하며, 일부 도서·산간 지역은 용수공급이 제한되는 현상까지 발생하였다. 이러한 가뭄 피해를 대비하기 위해 초기에 모니터링을 통한 선제적 대응 방안을 구축해야 한다. 가뭄 모니터링의 경우 미계측 지역에 대한 모니터링 방법으로 주기적이고 균질한 자료를 제공 받을 수 있는 위성영상을 활용한 연구가 수행되고 있다. 가뭄을 정량적으로 분석하고 판단하기 위해 가뭄지수를 활용하고 있으며, 대표적인 가뭄지수는 지상 관측강수량자료를 활용한 확률분포 기반의 표준강수지수 (Standardized Precipitation Index, SPI)와 강수 및 기온의 변동성이 포함된 표준강수증발산지수 (Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index, SPEI)가 있으며, 위성영상 자료를 활용한 가뭄지수인 증발스트레스지수(Evaporative Stress Index, ESI) 등이 있다. 본 연구에서는 강수와 기온을 고려한 가뭄지수인SPEI와 위성영상 기반의 가뭄지수인 ESI를 활용하여 2022년 남부 지역의 가뭄 사상을 중심으로 지표별 시공간적 변화를 분석하고자 한다. SPEI의 경우 기상관측소 지점자료의 기온과 강수량을 활용하였으며, Terra 위성의 MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) 센서에서 제공되는 위성영상자료를 활용한 ESI는 미계측 지역에 대한 가뭄 판단을 위해 시·군별로 세분화하여 산정하였다.

The Chah-Nimeh reservoirs, which are a sort of natural lakes located in the border of Iran and Afghanistan, are the main drinking and agricultural water resources of Sistan arid region. Considering the occurrence of intense seasonal wind, locally known as levar wind, this study aims to explore the possibility to provide a TSM (Total Suspended Matter) monitoring model of Chah-Nimeh reservoirs using multi-temporal satellite images and in-situ wind speed data. The results show that a strong correlation between TSM concentration and wind speed are present. The developed empirical model indicated high performance in retrieving spatiotemporal distribution of the TSM concentration with R²=0.98 and RMSE=0.92g/m³. Following this observation, we also consider a machine learning-based model to predicts the average TSM using only wind speed. We connect our in-situ wind speed data to the TSM data generated from the inversion of multi-temporal satellite imagery to train a neural network based mode l(Wind2TSM-Net). Examining Wind2TSM-Net model indicates this model can retrieve the TSM accurately utilizing only wind speed (R²=0.88 and RMSE=1.97g/m³). Moreover, this results of this study show tha the TSM concentration can be estimated using only in situ wind speed data independent of the satellite images. Specifically, such model can supply a temporally persistent means of monitoring TSM that is not limited by the temporal resolution of imagery or the cloud cover problem in the optical remote sensing.
