Background: In this study, we proposed that the population dynamics of non-native red-eared sliders (Trachemys scripta elegans) depends on the species' habitat extension and survivorship. We used a logistic equation with time-dependent habitat carrying capacity. In detail, the present carrying capacity depends on the red-eared slider population of the previous year. Anthropogenic activities such as the abandonment of previously captive red-eared sliders or the release due to religion customs would supply new habitats to the species. Therefore we assumed that anthropogenic spread increases the habitat carrying capacity. Based on the urbanization increase rate of 3% in Korea from 1980 to 2000, we assumed an annual spread of 3% to simulate the population dynamics of the red-eared slider. In addition, the effect on the population of an increase of natural habitats due to migration was simulated. Results: The close relationship between the distributions of non-native red-eared sliders and of urbanized areas demonstrates that urbanization plays an important role in providing new habitats for released individuals. Depending on the survivorship, the population of the red-eared slider in Korea increased 1.826 to 3.577 times between 1980 and 2000. To control population growth, it is necessary to reduce carrying capacity by reducing habitat expansion through prohibition of release into the wild ecosystem and careful managements of the wetland or artificial ponds. Changes in the habitat carrying capacity showed that the population fluctuated every other year. However, after several years, it converged to a consistent value which depended on the survivorship. Further, our results showed that if red-eared sliders expand their habitat by natural migration, their population can increase to a greater number than when they have a 99% survivorship in a fixed habitat. Conclusions: Further introductions of red-eared sliders into wetlands or artificial ponds should be prohibited and managed to prevent future spread of the species. Moreover, it is important to reduce the species' survivorship by restoring disturbed ecosystems and maintaining healthy ecosystems.

The rapid economic development of Korea since 1960 has also brought a rapid urbanization process, and recently many rural areas have begun to show actual depopulation, in which particularly the young, productive and high educated groups are leaving for cities. More than 70% of migrators go to large cities such as Seoul, Pusan and Taegu. Their main motives for migration are to seek a job in urban areas. The study showed following results; The rate of migration a year was 1% of total population. Regarding the age of migrators belong to between 10-39 years old, especially migrator aged 10-29 years are comprised 87%. The educational level of migrators was a little higher than that of the residents. Considering the sibling order of migrators, the traditional value system for first son seemed to change. Concerning the place of destination, more than 70% of migrators moved to large cities such as Seoul. Pusan and Taegu. The main motivation of migration was to seek a job in urban areas. The occupation at the place of destination were factory workers, employee at company, students, salesmen, farmers and public officials in that order.

We present a new maximum likelihood approach to estimate demographic history using genomic data sampled from two populations. A demographic model such as an isolation-with-migration (IM) model explains the genetic divergence of two populations split away from their common ancestral population. The standard probability model for an IM model contains a latent variable called genealogy that represents gene-specific evolutionary paths and links the genetic data to the IM model. Under an IM model, a genealogy consists of two kinds of evolutionary paths of genetic data: vertical inheritance paths (coalescent events) through generations and horizontal paths (migration events) between populations. The computational complexity of the IM model inference is one of the major limitations to analyze genomic data. We propose a fast maximum likelihood approach to estimate IM models from genomic data. The first step analyzes genomic data and maximizes the likelihood of a coalescent tree that contains vertical paths of genealogy. The second step analyzes the estimated coalescent trees and finds the parameter values of an IM model, which maximizes the distribution of the coalescent trees after taking account of possible migration events. We evaluate the performance of the new method by analyses of simulated data and genomic data from two subspecies of common chimpanzees in Africa.

Background: Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) -173G/C (rs755622) gene polymorphism has been associated with cancer risk. Previous studies have revealed that MIF -173G/C gene polymorphism may increase cancer in the Chinese population, while results of individual published studies remain inconsistent and inconclusive.We performed this meta-analysis to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship. Materials and Methods: We conducted a search on PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang, Weipu on Dec 31, 2014.Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were used to assess the association. A total of eight studies including 2,186 cases and 2,285 controls were involved in this meta-analysis. Results: The pooled results indicated the significant association between MIF -173G/C polymorphism and the risk of cancer for Chinese population (CC + CG vs GG: OR=1.14, 95%CI=1.02-127, pheterogeneity<0.01; P=0.023; CC vs CG+GG: OR=1.12, 95%CI=1.02-1.23, pheterogeneity<001; P=0.017;CC vs GG: OR=1.18, 95%CI=1.04-1.33, pheterogeneity<001; P=0.008; CG vs GG:OR=1.03, 95%CI=0.91-1.15, pheterogeneity<001; P=0.656; C vs G:OR=1.24, 95%CI=1.14-1.25, pheterogeneity<001; P<001). Subgroup analysis showed that in patients with "solid tumors", heterogeneity was very large (OR=0.94,95%CI=0.83-1.06,pheterogeneity=0.044; p=0.297). Within "non-solid tumors", the association became even stronger (OR=6.62, 95 % CI=4.32-10.14, pheterogeneity<0.001; p<0.001). Conclusions: This study suggested that MIF -173G/C gene polymorphism may increase increase cancer in the Chinese population.Furthermore, more larger sample and representative population-based casees and well-matched controls are needed to validate our results.

이 연구의 목표는 도시 순위-규모별 자연적 인구증가율(NIR) 변화를 시계열적으로 분석하여, 도시 계층성에 따른 단계적 이동이 발생했는지 여부와 그것이 개별 도시들에 파급되는 영향력을 파악하는 것이다. 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째 군 지역으로 대표되는 농촌은 1960년대 이래 지속적으로 인구가 유출되어, 1985년 일부 지역에서 처음 음(-)의 NIR이 발생하였고, 1990년대 중반에는 해당 인구현상이 대부분 군 지역으로 확대되었다. 둘째, 농촌 출신 이동자를 유입했던 시 지역들은 1990년대 중반까지 인구가 증가했지만, 이후부터 인구유출과 감소가 시작되었다. 음의 NIR 발생지역도 1995년 2개, 2005년 14개, 2014년 19개로 증가했고, 해당 지역의 분포는 비수도권에 집중되었다. 셋째, 수도권은 과거에도 농촌 출신 이동자를 유입했고, 현재에는 비수도권 도시 출신 이동자를 유입하는 도착지로 작용하면서, 지속적으로 인구가 증가하고 있다. 결국 '이동에 따른 인구유출'${\rightarrow}$'개별 지역 전체 인구감소'${\rightarrow}$'해당 지역에서 음의 NIR 발생'이라는 순차적 인구현상이 농촌에서 비수도권 도시, 도시 순위-규모 하위 계층 지역에서 상위계층지역으로 상향 전이되고 있음이 확인되고, 이를 통해 간접적으로 도시 계층성에 따른 단계적 이동이 진행되어 왔던 것으로 평가할 수 있다. 아울러 이러한 단계적 이동의 영향력은 과소화 문제가 과거 농촌에서 최근 비수도권 도시들까지 공간적으로 확대되는 것을 의미한다.

The liberated korea has the estimated population 16 million in 1945, and added 2.5 million just after an year. The korean repatriates returned by way of 2 main routes. The returnees, Wol-Nam-Min(former residents in north korea), and repatriates from Manchuria came into south korea over the 38th division line. The other repatriates from japanese islands and pacific areas came into Busan port and the vicinity. The repatriates who returned from the China and the Japanese islands made up about 80% of the total added population. However, the influx of overseas repatriates who explosively increased between 1945 and 1946, declined abruptly in April of 1946, and at last illegal re-emigration group to Manchuria and Japan Appeared, who had repatriated from those areas. This study deals with the "re-migration phenomenon of 1946" in korea, mainly focuses on 1) the motivation for those who decided to remigrate, their prospects of resettlement in Manchuria and post war japan after re-migration, 2) the structural problems of the Korean society in 1946-1947, and 3) the social recognition for the people who letf for Manchuria and Japan. This study proved the cause and background of re-migration phenomenon. The Manchuria case, the local authorities wanted farmers and peasants who could cultivate the abandoned land which had been originally pioneered and reclaimed by korean poor peasants, who repatriated to korean peninsula. On the other hand, the korean repatriates had a hard time in tenanting farmland, and so much difficulty in getting farming tools including fertilizer. That's why they left korea for Manchuria again. The Japanese case, the korean repatriates had a tough life owing to the restriction of properties left in japan, while the inflation and food shortage in korea got worse and worst. Accordingly, many koreans tried illegal entrance into post war japan. This study is a part of clarifying the universality and specificity of post war repatriation and migration issues developed in the south Korea. Through this study, we can find how difficult it is for newly liberated areas to accommodate repatriates and make them ordinary nationals in harmonic way with successful social integration. and we can observe the social aspect and administrative ability of newly liberated south korea in detail, Because the present korea has faced with so many problems connected with immigration workers and re-setting with korean communities abroad, we should introspect these historical experience of our own.

Ascertaining the actual growth rate of the population is an issue that has generated a lot of arguments amongst various scholars in the process of determining the actual census count. As such, this has had a pronounced effect in the determination of the actual growth rates for different urban populations in the country. But the effect centres much when it comes to accurately determining the major components or the factors contributing to the rapid growth of urban populations. The problem of rapid population growth centres much on its effects on the available basic social services and amenities provided for the people in these areas. Factors such as levels of medical knowledge and services, nutrition, quantity and quality of housing etc. to some extent influence the quality and duration of lives of the people. As such, their importance cannot be overemphasized when dealing with the issue of population growth. The study aims to examine the rate of population growth in the Federal Capital City, Abuja with respect to the available public provision of basic social services among other objectives. The findings from the data obtained from the Population Survey conducted in the city in 1985 show that the health care facilities available in the capital city are grossly inadequate to serve the entire inhabitants of the city. Moreso, the volume of in-migration into the city also compounds the health problems facing the city. The conclusion is that there is need for more resources to be allocated to the health sector to guarantee adequate and functional health care services in the city.

본 연구는 세가지 목적을 갖는다. 하나는 한국과 일본의 인구요소를 분석함에 있어 비교규준을 제공해주는 신말사스론과 풍요론의 양립할 수 없는 개념을 분석하는 것이며. 다른 하나는 다양한 인구요소들이 한국과 일본이라고 하는 특정지역과 어떻게 관련되고 있는가를 구명하는 것이다. 마지막으로 50세 이상의 노령인구의 거주선호유형과 장래의 근심도를 비교, 분석하는 것이다. 다양한 인구요소의 분석을 통해서 일본은 한국보다 인구선진형이지만 양자간의 격차는 매년 줄어져감을 알 수 있다. Willer의 이동기대치는 한국이 일본보다 월등 높다는 사실이 광주.전남과 히로시마현의 사례지역에서 발견된다. 일본의 매장문화는 이미 사라졌으나 한곽은 화장률이 아직도 30% 수준 밖에 되지 않아 사망으로부터 오는 인구감소효과를 상실하고 있다. 50세 이상 노인(또는 예비노인)의 거주선호유형에 관한 사례연구를 통해 일본이 한국보다 더 의존형이며, 독거의 외로움이 그 첫째 이유가 되는 것은 양국의 공통적 현상이다 미래에 대한 근심도 역시 일본이 한국보다 현저히 높다. 이것들은 여러측면에서 연령.학력.지역(시.군)과 관련된다. 노령사회에서의 노동력부족이라는 일반적 인식은 잘못된 관념에 불과하다. 그것은 노동력 부재가 아닌, 노인으로부터의 노동력 탈취에서 오는 것이기 때문이다. 인구현상에는 관성의 법칙이 적용되므로 미세한 인구변화에도 주의를 요한다. 말사스적 사고는 아직도 유효하며, 인구.자원.환경문제는 더 이상 개인이나 지역문제가 아닌 전 지구촌의 문제라는 인식이 중요하다.

우리나라 동안의 꽁치에 대해서 1968년, 1970년 및 1971년 $1\~7$월의 어획통계 자료와 1968년의 체장측정자료를 이용하여 꽁치의 체형군에 따른 회유를 고찰한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 어장내의 전어군의 분포중심의 이동은 북상 회유에서나 남하 회유에서나 대체로 $130^{\circ}\~130^{\circ}30'$의 범위를 중심으로 이루어지고 있으며, 각월의 동서 방향으로의 편배의 정도는 해에 따라 대단히 심하다. 이 중심의 이동은 해황외에 해에 따른 체형군별의 자원량의 크기와도 깊은 관계를 가질 것이라 추측된다. 2. 체형군을 분류하는 기준체장의 주년에 걸친 변화곡선을 구한 결과는 다음과 같다. 5, 6월에 있어서 중형군을 구분하는 체장의 변화곡선은 $Y=24.807X^{0.0885}$이며, 중형군과 소형군을 구분하는 체장의 변화곡선은 $Y=21.532X^{0.1177}$이다. 단 Y는 체장, X는 역상의 월을 표시함. 3. 회유에 있어서 북상기에는 체형이 작은 것이 먼저 북상하고 남하기에는 체형이 큰 것이 먼저 남하하는 경향을 보인다. 4. 회유경로는 어장내의 분포중심의 이동방향으로서 추적될수 있는 것이 아니며, 1968년의 각 체형군의 회유경로는 Fig. 6과 같이 추정된다.

This study examined the population movement of the young generation in accordance with the characteristics of housing market focusing on the housing problem of youth issues. Targeting 64 local governments in the seoul metropolitan area, the temporal range was decided as 2015. Setting up the rising population in 19-34 as a dependent variable, supposing that each age group shows different characteristics, it was divided into age groups in 19~34, 19~29, and 25~34. The population movement of the young generation in accordance with the characteristics of housing market was considered through the multiple regression analysis. In the results, the population movement of the young generation was influenced by the change in detached multi-family housing and the rate of housing supply. The increase of detached multi-family housing promoted the population inflow of the young generation while the population movement of the young generation was disturbed by the rising rate of housing supply. Also, when the local characteristics are not controlled, the young generation hesitates to enter the region where relatively high rent should be paid while the new housing supply focusing on apartment is hard to be selected by the young generation for residence because of the size and price. The population movement of the young generation looked quite different in each age group. The population inflow of the young generation in 19~29 was influenced when there were many officetels and non-apartments on top of detached multi-family housing. On the contrary, the population movement of the young generation in 25~34 was significantly influenced by the increase of the whole size of completed apartment area. Even though it was not the research subject of this study, among control variables, the financial independence and daily average number of get-on/off had effects on the movement of the young generation. It means that the housing type preferred by college students and social novices is different from the housing type preferred by the group with experiences in marriage and childbirth within the same young generation. Thus, it would be necessary to divide the purposes of policies for each subject when executing the youth housing policies.
