This study aims to propose a way for evaluating thermal environment vulnerability associated with policy to improve thermal environment. For this purpose, a variety of indices concerning thermal vulnerability assessment and adaptation policies for climate change applied to 17 Korean cities were reviewed and examined. Finally, 15 indices associated with policies for improving thermal environment were selected. The selected indices for thermal vulnerability assessment were applied to Daegu Metropolitan City of South Korea as a case study. As results, 15 vulnerability maps based on the standardized indices were established, and a comprehensive map with four grades of thermal vulnerability were established for Daegu Metropolitan City. As results, the area with the highest rated area in the first-grade(most vulnerable to heat) was Dong-gu, followed by Dalseo-gu and Buk-gu, and the highest area ratio of the first-grade regions was Ansim-1-dong in Dong-gu. Based on the standardized indices, the causes of the thermal environment vulnerability of Ansim-1-dong were accounted for the number of basic livelihood security recipients, the number of cardiovascular disease deaths, heat index, and Earth's surface temperature. To improve the thermal environment vulnerability of Ansim-1-dong, active policy implementation is required in expansion and maintenance of heat wave shelters, establishment of database for the population with diseases susceptible to high temperature environments, expansion of shade areas and so on. This study shows the applicability of the vulnerability assessment method linked with the policies and is expected to contribute to the strategic and effective establishment of thermal environment policies in urban master district plans.

This study was concentrated on the subject of chou formation and physicochemical characteristics on medium flour mixed with 0, 25, 50, 75, 100% of rice flour in order to clarify the possibility to substitute rice flour for wheat flour on chou preparation. The water holding capacity, swelling power, and maximum viscosity were higher in rice flour than those in medium flour but the initial pasting temperature was equal to 65$^{\circ}C$ in the two flour groups. The ratio of setback during cooling became 0.94 in the rice flour and 1.14 in the medium flour. So, the rice flour showed a slow tendency during gel formation as compared with the medium flour. The volumes of the rice choux were ranged from 80.0% to 89.0% according to the mixing ratio of medium flour as compared with that of the chou of wheat flour. But, the choux formation were increased as much as 108.8% out the paste added gelation of glutinous substance and 124.4% at the paste added Span20 of emulsifier compared to the non-addition treatment. The paste of rice flour added gelatin and Span20 showed better dispersion of components, especially, the small granules of lipid were fairly or plentifully dispersed in the paste added Span20 due to emulsifying activity. In sensory evaluation, the chou of l00% rice flour was inferior to that of medium flour on cavity-forming but the choux of wheat flour mixed with 25%, 50%, and 75% of rice flour were equal or superior to that of medium flour on all characteristics tested such as appearance, surface color, cavity-forming, chewiness, and taste. There were no significant differences on the cavity-forming expansion and taste between choux of rice flour and wheat flour Therefore, the results of this study made conclusion that rice flour would be substituted for wheat flour on the chou preparation.

This study was conducted to widen the range of characteristics of the hybrids, P.alba ${\times}$ P.glandulosa, i.e. aiming for gene population expansion P.glandulosa seemed to have the similar characteristics as the one segregated from the natural hybrids between P.alba and P.davidiana. Thus the main objectives of this study were to make many crosses among poplars and then to identify leaf characteristics of the crosses similar to P.glandulosa, the results obtained can be summerized as follows; 1. Leaf characteristics such as leaf margin, presence of glands at leaf base and pubescence density, of crosses made from P.alba.davidiana ${\times}$ P.datidiana, and P.davidiana.alba ${\times}$ P.davidina showed 44% and 90%, respectively, of similarity to P.glandulosa. 2. The ratio of leaf size, including leaf length, leaf width, length from leaf base to width line, and petiole length, of the above crosses was similar to P.glandulosa. 3. Pubescence density of the dorsal leaf surface in hybrids between P.alba and P.davidiana showed generally intermediate of the parental appearance. Frequency of pubescence appearance differed from depending upon the use of P.alba, either as a female or a male parent. The use of P.alba as a male parent increased frequency of Pubescence appearance. 4. The presence of glands at the leaf base in P.glandulosa may be inherited from P.davidiana which possesses gland although gland is not present in all P.davidiana rather from P.alba which has no gland.
