본 연구에서는 한라산 사방향에 분포하는 구상나무 자생지 중 9개 조사구에 대하여 구상나무를 생목과 사목으로 구분하여 도면화하고, 그 밀도와 고사율을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 구상나무는 조사구 내의 위치에 따라 밀도 및 고사율에 있어 상당한 불균질성을 보였다. 이는 위치에 따라 변화하는 특정 인자가 구상나무 고사를 발생시킬 것이라는 추정을 가능케 한다. 본 연구에서는 구상나무 밀도 및 고사율을 토대로 고도, 지형경사, 수계망, 일사량과 경사향 등의 지형적 요인과 구상나무 고사현상과의 관련성을 살펴보았다. 구상나무는 고도가 증가함에 따라 밀도가 증가하였으며, 고사율 또한 증가하였다. 지형경사와 고사율 사이에는 음의 상관관계가 인지되었으며, 수계망이 미약하게 발달한 완만한 곳에서 고사율이 높게 나타났다. 그리고 경사향에 따라 고사율이 크게 변화하는 것이 인지되었으며, 생목이 우세한 영역이 사목이 우세한 영역에 비해 평균 일사량이 많게 나타났다. 전반적으로 한라산 구상나무는 상대적으로 지형경사가 완만하고, 일사량이 적은 곳에서 많이 고사하는 것으로 나타났다. 지형경사가 완만할수록 상대적으로 토양수분 함량이 많고, 일사량이 적을수록 증발량이 적어져 토양수분 함량이 많다는 기존 연구결과를 고려하면, 토양수분 과다가 한라산 구상나무 고사의 원인으로 추정된다. 이는 근래의 한반도 및 제주 지역에서 나타나는 강수량 증가, 증발량 감소, 일조시간 감소 등의 일련의 기후변화 현상, 한라산 고도 증가에 따른 강수량 증가와 함께 나타나는 고사율 증가현상, 한라산 아고산지대에서의 식생변화 등의 증거들에 의해 뒷받침된다. 이번 연구에서 고도 및 지역에 따라 인지되는 구상나무 밀도와 고사율의 변화양상은 향후 구상나무 쇠퇴현상에 대한 수치 모델링 연구에 있어 공간변수로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다. 뿐만 아니라, 정사항공영상을 활용하는 개체단위의 수목분포 조사 방법은 향후 장기적 식생변화 연구에 있어 수치적 모니터링 기법으로 널리 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Objectives: Child mortality remains a critical problem even in developed countries due to low fertility. To plan effective interventions, investigation into the trends and causes of child mortality is necessary. Therefore, we analyzed these trends and causes of child deaths over the last 30 years in Korea. Methods: Causes of death data were obtained from a nationwide vital registration managed by the Korean Statistical Information Service. The mortality rate among all children aged between one and four years and the causes of deaths were reviewed. Data from 1983-2012 and 1993-2012 were analyzed separately because the proportion of unspecified causes of death during 1983-1992 varied substantially from that during 1993-2012. Results: The child (1-4 years) mortality rates substantially decreased during the past three decades. The trend analysis revealed that all the five major causes of death (infectious, neoplastic, neurologic, congenital, and external origins) have decreased significantly. However, the sex ratio of child mortality (boys to girls) slightly increased during the last 30 years. External causes of death remain the most frequent origin of child mortality, and the proportion of mortality due to child assault has significantly increased (from 1.02 in 1983 to 1.38 in 2012). Conclusions: In Korea, the major causes and rate of child mortality have changed and the sex ratio of child mortality has slightly increased since the early 1980s. Child mortality, especially due to preventable causes, requires public health intervention.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare suicide mortality by region in South Korea. Method: Suicide mortality differentials were calculated for several mortality indicators by geographical regions from raw data of the cause of death from KNSO. Results: The results are as follows; the Crude suicide death rate was 22.63 per 100,000. The highest was in Kangwon showing 37.84% whereas, Chungnam, and Jeonbuk followed after. Suicide was 4.4% of all causes of death, but Inchon and Ulsan showed a higher proportion. The male suicide death rate was 31.12 per 100,000 and females 14.09. The ratio of gender suicide mortality was 2.21, per 100,000 and was the highest in Jeju. For age-specific suicide death rates, the rate increased as age advanced, showing 2.33 per 100,000 in 0-19years, 18.68 in 20-39, 30.48 in 40-59, 63.33 in 60 years and over. In Ulsan, Kangwon, and Inchon, age-specific suicide death rates of the 60 and over age group were higher than other regions, Daegu, Busan, and Kangwon showed a higher age-specific suicide mortality of the 40-59 age group, and Kangwon, Jeonnam, and Chungnam had a higher age-specific suicide mortality of the 20-39 age group. Conclusions: Suicide mortality differed by region. These results can be used for a regional health care plan and planning for suicide prevention by regions.

Objectives: The contribution of health behavior is high in the mortality variation. Mortality variation can be decreased through the policies and programs for improving health behavior. We investigated that health behaviors effected with standardized mortality in community. Methods: We examined the distribution of health determinant factors and correlation analyzed between factors and performed multiple linear regression. Data were collected from 2012 Community Health Survey in 253 communities, annual regional statistics, and statistics from Statistics Korea. Results: This study defined that the variation of standardized mortality and there are exist inequality level of health determinant factors in 253 communities. This study showed that the higher standardized mortality explained through health behavior factors of the current smoking rate, walking exercise rate and diagnosis of hypertension or diabetes rate after adjusted other factors(adjusted $R^2=0.709$, p<0.001). Conclusions: Smoking, walking exercise and diagnosis chronic disease affecting on the regional variation of standardized mortality. These factors can be improved by the local residents themselves.

Background: The government should find ways to improve the effectiveness of the policies to control the incidence and mortality of the infectious disease. The purpose of this study is to find out whether the trust in the government's ability to respond to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) affects the quarantine and hospitalization rate, incidence and mortality rates of COVID-19 and quarantine rules compliance in each region of Korea. Methods: The subject of this study is 250 regions (si·gun·gu) in Korea, and the 2020 Community Health Survey data from the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA) was used for the trust in the government's ability to respond to COVID-19, quarantine and hospitalization rate and quarantine rules compliance. For the incidence and mortality of COVID-19 and community factors, data was obtained from KDCA and Korean Statistical Information Service. Path analysis was used to find out the degree of inter-variable influence, and community factors (socio-demographic factors, community health factors, and health behavior factors) were used as control variables. Results: The regional disparity in key variables showed that the late pandemic period cumulative incidence and mortality of COVID-19 were large, while the early pandemic period quarantine and hospitalization rate and quarantine rules compliance were small. Path analysis showed that when community factors were controlled, the trust in government was statistically significant in all of the late pandemic period cumulative incidence (p=0.024) and mortality (p=0.017), and quarantine rules compliance (p=0.011). Conclusion: This study revealed that the higher the trust in the government's ability to respond to COVID-19, the lower the COVID-19 mortality and the higher the quarantine rules compliance at the regional level in Korea. This suggests that when the government implements healthcare policies to control infectious diseases, it is necessary to consider trust to improve policy compliance and control the mortality of the disease and maintain high trust through several effective methods.

We investigated the population ecology of blackthroat seaperch, Doederleinia berycoides, from samples collected in the southern seas of Korea from January to December, 2006. Population ecological parameters included survival rate, the instantaneous coefficient of natural and fishing mortality, and age at first capture. The survival rate (S) of blackthroat seaperch was estimated as 0.4966 using the catch curve method. The instantaneous coefficient of total mortality (Z) was 0.8598/year. The instantaneous coefficient of natural mortality (M) was estimated as 0.4694/year. From the estimates of Z and M, the instantaneous coefficient of fishing mortality (F) was calculated as 0.3904/year. The age at first capture ($t_c$), based on the Pauly method, was 2.87 years.

The objective of this study was to evaluate outcome for the patients of the intensive care unit, using APACHE III prognostic system. We prospectively collected the information of 429 patients in intensive care units at 2 tertiary care hospitals and 4 secondary care hospitals in PUSAN who had been admitted from December 1, 1993 to February 28, 1994. The results were as follows. 1. APACHE III scores were various from 0 to 173. But the distribution of the scores were similar between tertiary care hospitals and secondary care hospitals. 2. The mortality rate significantly increased as APACHE III score rised (p<0.001). Within the interval of same score, generally, the mortality of operative patients was higher in secondary care hospitals but in the case of nonoperative patients higher in tertiary care hospitals. 3. When the tertiary care hospitals compared with secondary for ratio of the predicted mortality rate to the actual mortality rate, there was little difference. 4. When we compared the 6 hospitals, one hospital had significantly better results and another hospital was significantly inferior (p<0.05).
