  • 지리적 격리는 생태학적 특징의 차이를 유발한다. 지리적인 격리는 박쥐 종 내의 소리 차이의 원인으로 알려져 왔다. 본 연구는 관박쥐의 반향정위가 지리적 차이에 의해 차이가 있는지를 알기 위해 우리나라 섬(제주도)과 내륙에서 수행되었다 우리는 내륙과 섬(제주도)에서 관박쥐가 활동기간에 휴식처로 이용하는 것으로 알려진 폐광과 동굴을 연구 지역으로 선정하였다. 관박쥐의 Hand-held call과 Free-flying call을 녹음하였다. 녹음된 펄스(pulse)는 관박쥐의 Hand-held call과 Free-flying call을 녹음하였다. 분석 결과, 내륙에서 서식하는 관박쥐의 PF는 평균 69 kHz로 섬(제주도)에 서식하는 관박쥐의 PF (71 kHz)와 차이가 났다. 판별 분석 결과에서도 내륙과 섬의 반향정위는 차이를 보였다. 우리나라 관박쥐 개체군의 PF는 유럽(82 kHz)보다는 낮고, 일본(65 kHz)보다는 높았다.

  • Black-billed magpies (Pica pica) are a highly sedentary species due to their short and round wings, which are not adequate for long distance flights. We investigated geographic variation in the vocal signals of magpies residing in South Korea and Japan (subspecies sericea). Based on the magpie's limited dispersal ability, we predicted that the variation in vocal signals of black-billed magpies could be explained by geographic barriers such as mountain ranges and straits. We analyzed four-syllable chatter calls of magpies from five localities in South Korea, which are separated by mountain ranges (Seoul, Daejeon, Daegu, Gwangju, and Busan), and two island localities separated from the mainland by straits (Jeju in Korea and Saga in Japan). We found significant differences in the characteristics of magpie chatter calls recorded in the seven localities, and the variation pattern was independent among the variables. Mainland-island differentiation and north-south differentiation were observed. In general, magpies on Saga were the most distinctive. North-south differentiation was observed among the Korean mainland localities. However, the pattern was not related to the presence of putative geographic barriers. We hypothesize that the patterns of geographic variation in the structure of magpie chatter calls residing in South Korea might have been shaped by a sudden expansion of magpies followed by low level of local isolation, which may have led to vocal differentiation. Along with elucidating the vocal environment of Korean magpie populations, more extensive sampling is needed to clarify the functional aspects of geographic variation in the vocal signals of Korean magpies.

  • It is known that the role of informal support for elderly women is critical to their physical and mental health, adjustment in old age, and their overall life satisfaction. Elderly women's situation such as social losses, widowhood, living alone, and geographic relocation etc. may result in a need for more informal supports for elderly women's health than ever before. Particularly, women's same-sex friendships were rated higher for overall quality, intimacy, enjoyment, and nurturance. Unlike a generally accepted notion that later life for women is a time of isolation and loneliness, elderly women tend to maintain and reestablish their friendship regardless their marital status and living situation. Although studies on informal support for elderly women were inconclusive in many ways, elderly women's friendship tends to be stable despite of changing health status and life events. The relative importance between daughters and friends was also controversial. This study suggests that more research with reliable measurements is necessary for the practical prevention and intervention program of elderly women's health on this issue.

  • The changing trend of longevity from 1955 through 1985 and its interprovincal variation were studied with longevity rate as indicator. In order to detect the affecting factors of longevity rate, eleven urbanalizational, geographic-environmental, demographic and social-economic variables were employed to carry out multiple stepwise regression analysis. The data used for this study were from Population Census Reports 1955-1985 published by EPB and Year book of Public Health and Social Statistics 1986 published by Ministry of Health and Social Affairs and other reference. Subsequent to that longevity rate decreased during 1950's it has increased continuously by the yeat of 1980's. This trend was especially remarkable in the south area and the GIRI mountain area in Korea. The stepwise regression analysis shows that the longevity rates were significantly associated with the independent variables, and the dependent variables explained at the level of 93.7percent-99.9 percent. Longevity is a reflection of the demographic and socio-economic, environmental and health resourses factor etc., longevity problems cannot be dealt with in isolation. The possible research and services which could be provided by government will be discuss.

  • 지오펜스는 사용자의 행동을 기반으로 상황을 주도적으로 유발할 수 있는 PoI(관심 지점, Point of Interest)의 지리학적인 측면을 묘사하기 위한 일반적인 개념이다. 그러나, 일시적인 사건이나 사고, 전염병 등의 감염성 바이러스의 지역적 확산이지만 일시적인 환경에 반영하는 PoI에는 지오펜스를 지속적으로 유지할 필요가 없다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 PoI를 지원하기 위한 지오펜스 플랫폼 TemG를 제안한다. 제안된 TemG는 지오펜스의 기본적인 상황 인식 기능에 한시성을 갖도록 시간을 제한적으로 적용하는 속성을 부여함으로써 지오펜스의 지속성을 보장한다. 향후에는 TemG가 IoT를 위한 HPS(Hybrid Positioning System)와 확장되는 것이 필요하다.

  • 한국산 밀어(R. brunneus complex)에 대한 지리적 변이 및 분포를 조사한 결과 반 문 및 체색 등에 뚜렷한 차이가 있는 3type이 채집되었다. 이들은 유전적으로도 typerks에 총 genome의 26-30%(A-B type : 30%, A-C type : 30%, B-C type : 26%) 차이가 있어 유전적 근연치(Rogers' S)가 S=0.628-0.661(A-B type : 0.631, A-C type : 0.628, B-C type : 0.661)로 뚜렷한 유전적 차이를 나타냈다. 각 type의 유전적 변이 정도를 비교한 결과 A-type은 평균 P=25.90%, Ho=0.081, He=0.092로 B-type(P=12.33%, Ho=0.037, He=0.044)과 C-type(P=11.10%, Ho=0.032, He=0.048)에 비하여 약 2배 이상 높은 특징을 보였다. 이들 3 type의 분류학적 위치를 명확히 구명하고자 3type이 모두 서식하는 고성의 북천에서 유전적 표식인자를 이용하여 각 typerks의 생식적 격리 수준을 분석하였다. 이들 3 type은 동서(同 棲)하천에서 하구로부터의 거리에 따라 parapatric 하게 서식하면서 각 typerks에 유전자 교 환이 전혀없었다. 이러한 결과로부터 3type은 이미 생식적 격리가 완성되고 미세분포역에 차이가 있는 별종으로 판단되었다.

  • Vitis vinifera is very susceptible to downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola). A number of authors have suggested different genetic populations of this fungus exist in Europe, each showing a different degree of virulence. Work performed to date indicates this diversity to be the result of different factors. In areas where gene flow is greater and recombination more frequent, the diversity of P. viticola appears to be wider. In vineyards isolated by geographic barriers, a race may become dominant and produce clonal epidemics driven by asexual reproduction. The aim of the present work was to identify the conditions that influence the genetic diversity of P. viticola populations in the vineyards of northwestern Spain, where the climatic conditions for the growth of this fungus are very good. Vineyards situated in a closed, narrow valley of the interior, in more open valleys, and on the coast were sampled and the populations of P. viticola detected were differentiated at the molecular level through the examination of microsatellite markers. The populations of P. viticola represented in primary and secondary infections were investigated in the same way. The concentration of airborne sporangia in the vegetative cycle was also examined, as was the virulence of the different P. viticola populations detected. The epidemiological characteristics of the fungus differed depending on the degree of isolation of the vineyard, the airborne spore concentration, and on whether the attack was primary or secondary. Strong isolation was associated with the appearance of dominant fungal races and, therefore, reduced populational diversity.

  • Spore forming actinobacteria (sporoactinobacteria) isolated from soils with an acidic pH in Pinus thunbergii forests and coal mine waste were subjected to taxonomic characterization. For the isolation of acidophilic actinobacteria, acidified starch casein agar (pH adjusted to 4-5) was used. The numbers of actinobacteria growing in acidic media were between $3.2{\times}10^4$ and $8.0{\times}10^6$ CFU/g soil. Forty three acidophilic actinobacterial strains were isolated and their 16S rDNA sequences were determined. The isolates were divided into eight distinctive phylogenetic clusters within the variation encompassed by the family Streptomycetaceae. Four clusters among them were assigned to the genus Streptacidiphilus, whereas the remaining four were assigned to Streptomyces. The clusters belonging to either Streptomyces or Streptacidiphilus did not form a monophyletic clade. The growth pH profiles indicated that the representative isolates grew best between pH 5 and 6. It is evident from this study that acidity has played a critical role in the differentiation of the family Streptomycetaceae, and also that different mechanisms might have resulted in the evolution of two groups, Streptacidiphilus (strict acidophiles) and neutrotolerant acidophilic Streptomyces. The effect of geographic separation was clearly seen among the Streptacidiphilus isolates, which may be a key factor in speciation of the genus.
