  • This study is designed to meet the following objectives: (1) To study attitude and behavior regarding marriage and age at marriage, (2) To learn correlates of age at marriage and to examine their relations, (3) To measure relative importance of the correlates of age at marriage, and (4) To study relations of age at marriage and family planning practice to fertility and their relative importance as correlates of fertility. The data are obtained by an independent cross-sectional survey in three study areas purposively selected to represent metropolitan. semihuman. rural population. The study population is confined to women age 17-50 as of survey. The overall response rate is 90%. Reliability of data is measured by . individual and aggregate inconsistency based upon a 15% subsample of the original interviews. The individual inconsistency (31%) is found to be high compared to the aggregate inconsistency (6%) for all 85 variables. However, the magnitude of differences between means is small, and the mean absolute shifts and proportional shifts are also small on the whole. In a word respondents did not change their answers too extremely or radically. The study populations of each study area are compared on some basic characteristics. It is found that the three study populations have more dissimilarities than similarities. The findings on seven different attitudinal positions of women toward marriage indicate that there have been tremendous changes in all study areas Iron "traditional" attitudes which have been prevalent for a long time in Korean society to "liberalized" or "modernized" attitudes. An apparent tendency is that women generally take a position of a "golden mean" attitude by not preferring either extreme of marriage attitudes. Nevertheless, the young, single, educated, and urbanite appears more "liberalized. " There has been some increase in ideal age at marriage from 1958 to 1970 for both sexes. No age group, marital status, or study area differentials in ideal age at marriage are found, the average ideal age at marriage in every sub-group being 24-25. Awareness of existing legal marriageable ages is low; only 4.4% are aware that "with parental permission: minimum age for males is 18 years and for females 16 years,"and only 3.7% are aware that "without parental permission: 27 years for males and 23 years for females." People in Korra tend to marry spouses who are in various social ways like themselves: the similarities include (a) education, occupational status of father, (c) economic status, (d) usual residence before marriage, and (e) religion. Both singulars and actual mean ages at marriage in this study confirm the trend of rising age at marriage previously established by other independent studies. The urban-rural differential in age at marriage is observed, but the differential narrows down gradually from 1935 to 1970. All socio-economic, demographic, and other variables pertaining to wife before and at first marriage, excluding (a) religion, (b) father′s of occupation, and (c) as: of menarche, are correlated with respondent's age at first marriage, whereas only three variables out of all socio-economic variables relating to husband before and at wife′s first marriage, viz., (a) education, (b) usual residence, and (c) economic level of his old home, are correlated with respondent′s age at marriage. Among socio-economic and modernity variables related to either husband or wife at the time of survey, only education and duration of residence are correlated with wife′s age at first marriage. Among the correlates of respondent′age at first marriage, education is in general the most important variable. However, it is found that wife′s education is more important than husband′s. The combined effects or the correlates studied explain no more than about 40% of variance for any of the selected groups of variables. Points which might counteract the effects of late marriage on fertility are not serious in Korea. For each of the correlates of the three fertility indices chosen for this study. namely, (a) number of living children, (b) number of live births, and (c) number of pregnancies, age at marriage is the major contributor to the variance in all age groups except the age group of 20-29 in which the index of family planning practice is the major contributor. The proportion of variability in fertility indices accounted for by the correlates is never more than 40% of the total variance in any age group. Based upon the findings from this study, it could be concluded that in the foreseeable future (a) celibate group will no! be increased to a point that would slow down population growth rate in Korea, (b) age at marriage will not increase continually, (c) although education stands out as the major contributing variable which independently explains the variation in age at marriage, it seems probable that education may not be the major variable in the near future, and (d) despite the fact found by this study that age at marriages has been the major contributor to the variance of each of the fertility indices used, family planning practice will play a more important role in the reduction of fertility in the Korean society. Therefore, factors interrupting practice of family planning must be eliminated and family planning program should be strengthened if further fertility reduction is needed.

  • 이 연구에서는 태양 및 지자기 활동에 의해 발생한 우주환경변화가 우리나라 위성인 아리랑위성1호(KOMPSAT-1)의 궤도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 인공위성의 궤도변화는 정상적인 상태에서도 자연적인 섭동에 의해 지속적으로 발생하지만, 거대한 태양폭발에 의한 지구 주변 우주환경이 급격히 변화할 때 고층대기의 밀도변화로 인해 크게 발생한다. 특히 이러한 현상은 아리랑위성 1호와 같이 저궤도 상에서 운영되는 위성에 직접적인 영향을 미친다. 이 때, 태양활동에 의한 지구 주변 우주환경의 변화는 크게 두 가지로 구분할 수 있다. 하나는 태양 플레어 (Flare)가 폭발했을 때 고에너지 복사(Radiation)로 인해 지구 고층대기가 가열되어 팽창하고 이런 결과로 고층대기에 있는 중성입자밀도가 급격히 증가하는 것이다. 다른 하나는 코로나 물질 방출(Coronal Mass Ejections) 등에 의해 발생한 지자기폭풍기간 동안 플라즈마 대류와 입자들의 하강으로 전기장이 강해져 상당량의 줄가열(Joule heating)과 하강입자가열(precipitating particle heating)이 발생하고 이로 인해 중성입자밀도가 증가하는 것이다. 두 가지 원인에 대한 영향을 구분하여 알아보기 위해, 우리는 태양 및 지자기 자료를 면밀히 분석하여 2001년에서 2002년 동안 5개의 기간을 선정하였다. 그 결과 위성의 대기저항가속도는 태양의 극자외선(Extreme Ultra-Violet)의 증가와 함께 약 하루 정도의 시간 지연을 가지고 유사하게 변화하고 있음을 확인하였다(R=0.92). 그리고 지자기폭풍이 발생한 기간동안 대기저항가속도는 지자기폭풍에 의한 Dst 변화와 상당히 유사하게 그리고 거의 동시에 급격히 변화하는 것을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 우리는 위성의 대기저항가속도의 변화는 전반적으로는 오랜 기간 동안 고에너지 복사에 의한 효과로 나타나고 있으나 짧은 기간(하루 미만) 동안 크게 발생하는 대기저항가속도의 변화는 지자기폭풍에 의한 효과로 보고 있다.

  • In recent years, the communication and the trade between the Republic of Korea(South Korea) and the Communist bloc has been activated. The simultaneous entrance of South Korea and North Korea to the United Nations will accelerate the political dialogue and also the trade which is indirectly carried out through a third country at present will be turned into direct way. Fisheries products are also treated as one of the important trade goods and there is a hopeful prospect that the amount of trade will be steeply increased in the near future. Furthermore, there is a great possibility of development up to the joint utilization of fishing grounds or the joint investment in fisheries projects. Concerning such points, since it is very much important to understand the present status of fisheries in North Korea, the author made a study on this field as requested by the Board of Unification, and report a part of the study here. The prominent character of North Korea's ruling sea area is that the sea is completely separated into two regions-the East Sea Region and the West Sea Region-and no continuity exists between them. The East Sea Region locates in the fringe of the biggest fishing ground of the world-the North Pacific Ocean-and very rich in resources not only warm water fishes but also cold water fishes. Especially alaska pollack, Theragra chalcogramma, is caught abundantly in this region. Contrary to that, fishing activity in the West Sea Region seems to be interrupted in winter. Even though some valuable warm water fishes-yellow corvenia, Pseudosciaena manchurica, and hair tail, Trichiurus lepturus, and so forth-come to this region from spring to summer along the coast line of this region for spawning, and vigorous fishing activity is carried out. But the most of them migrate southward to the neighboring waters of Cheju Island for wintering from autumn to winter, and so the fishing activity in this region seems to be interrupted greatly during winter. The total number of fishing boats in North Korea is estimated at 36 thousand and the rate of mechnization at about 70% compared with 99 thousand and 78% in South Korea. North Korea proclaimed an exclusive economic zone of 200 nautical miles in 1977. Specific character of this zone is setting of military boundary zone, up to 50 miles from the base line in the East Sea Region and also it covers whole region of the economic zone in the West Sea Region. Especially in the East Sea Region she set up a straight base line which can not be permissible by the international law. North Korea's statistics on fisheries product has not been announced officially on account of her unique isolationism, but it can be estimated through several data procured. At the first, the amount of fisheries products in the North Korea is reported as about 1.7 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ by Fisheries Statistics which issued by the FAO in 1987, but a North Korea's trade organization announced the amount as 3.5 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ in 1988. The former seems to be underestimated and the latter must be an exaggeration. According to Chikuni, who is a Japanese worker for FAO, prepared the unofficial statistics based on the evidence which he collected through the fineries development plan of the FAO/UNDP, and estimated the mean amount between 1982 and 1984 was 2.4 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ or so. The Board of Unification estimated on the basis of various factors that the amount was 2.2 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ or so in 1987 and in 1988. This seems to be the most reasonable. To solve the chronic lack of foreign currency, North Korea makes effort on the development of fisheries, and has even aimed fisheries product at 11 million ${\frac{M}{T}}$ by 1993, but this target looks unrealistic under the present circumstances. Somehow, we can exploit her extreme policy which has gone so far as to establish such an excessive and impractical target. Nevertheless this will be helpful to promote the joint development of the fishery activity between South Korea and North Korea.

  • 채굴지역의 복구는 생태계에 대한 다양한 피해를 줄일 수 있지만, 생태계서비스(Ecosystem Service, ES)에 대한 영향과 지역사회에 대한 기여는 불확실하다. 채굴작업에 의해 영향을 받는 ES 수혜자와 그 주변 환경에 어떻게 이익이 도출되는지를 식별하고, 나아가 수혜자들이 원하는 ES로 채굴지역을 복구·관리해야 한다. 본 연구는 국내 폐광산 지역의 산림복구지와 관련하여 TEEB(The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity) 기준에 따라 18개의 ES(공급서비스 4개, 조절서비스 7개, 문화서비스 5개, 서식지서비스 2개)를 선정하였다. 그리고 11점 리커트 척도(0점 '모름', 1점~5점 '부정적 혜택', 6점~10점 '긍정적 혜택')의 반 구조화(semi-structure)된 설문지로 지역사회 87명(태백시 62명, 정선군 25명)의 사회 인식을 조사하고, 핵심 ES를 도출하였다. 두 지역사회는 폐광산의 산림복구지에 대해 문화서비스(심신건강, 심미적 가치 및 영감, 레크리에이션)와 조절서비스(국지기후 및 대기조절, 자연재해조절)를 중심으로 인식과 수요가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 해당 서비스들은 지역사회에서 실생활과 밀접하게 연관되면서, 지역주민에게 긍정적 혜택을 주었거나 향후 삶의 질을 높일 수 있는 서비스였다. 하지만 평균 점수가 6~7점에 국한되어, 실제 지역사회에 미치는 혜택은 미비한 것으로 나타났다. 공급서비스는 식량, 원재료 등 이용가능성이 높은 재화를 창출하거나 수익기회를 제공하는데 기여하는 항목임에도 불구하고, 인식은 부정적이었다. 이는 광산활동 이전부터 전통적으로 특정 공급 ES에 의존했던 지역주민을 고려하지 않은 산림복구로 지역사회와 공급 ES의 흐름이 단절된 것을 보여준다. 향후 산림복구지의 지속가능한 이용 및 생태계 증진을 위해서 반드시 지역사회의 복지를 고려한 복구과정이 필요할 것이다. 본 연구결과는 국내 광산지역 개별 특성 및 상황에 맞는 산림복구를 위한 맞춤형 생태계서비스 증진 전략을 수립하는데 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 단, 빈도분석에 따른 정성적 평가로 연구결과가 도출되었으므로, 추후 폐광산 지역 산림복구에 대한 핵심 ES에 대한 정량화와 가치평가가 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.
