우리나라에 서식하는 주요 말벌류는 벌목(Hymenoptera)의 말벌아과(Vespinae)에 속하는 종들로 10종의 말벌속 (Vespa) 중 8종[장수말벌(V. mandarinia), 꼬마장수말벌(V. ducalis), 등검은말벌(V. velutina nigrithorax), 좀말 벌(V. analis), 말벌(V. crabro flavofasciata), 검정말벌(V. dybowskii), 털보말벌(V. simillima simillima), 황말벌 (V. simillima xanthoptera)]이 주를 이루고 있다. 특히 2003년 부산에서 처음 발견되었던 등검은말벌이 급속도로 확산되어 우리나라 양봉산업에 치명적인 피해를 주고 있는 현실이다. 이에 본 연구는 충남 주요 양봉지역인 공주, 청양, 논산에서 말벌 유인액을 주입한 포획기를 이용하여 4월부터 6월까지 봄철 출현하는 여왕말벌의 포획된 말벌 류 개체들을 조사하여 분포도와 특성을 알아보았다. 말벌 포획 개체수 조사결과, 등검은말벌의 분포율이 공주 76.3%, 청양 74.1%, 논산 58.0%로 가장 큰 비율을 보였으며, 꼬마장수말벌이 다음으로 공주와 청양지역은 밤나무 숲으로 12.4~16.0%를 보였던 반면, 소나무 숲을 이룬 논산에서는 31.8%로 최대 2.5배 정도 높은 분포 비율을 나타냈 다. 그리고 장수말벌은 5.2~8.6%의 분포율을 보였으며, 다른 지역보다 해발이 높았던 청양지역에서 장수말벌이 많게 조사되었다. 봄철 3개 지역에서 포획된 여왕말벌류의 총개체수(266마리)에 대한 평균 분포 비율은 등검은말 벌 69.5%, 꼬마장수말벌 19.9%, 장수말벌 6.8%, 말벌 2.6%, 그리고 좀말벌 1.1% 순으로 조사되었다.

This study examines the correlation between livestock odor civil petitions and the establishment of malodor control areas in Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, focusing on swine farms where numerous civil petitions regarding malodors have been received. After the designation of the malodor control areas, high odor concentrations occurred in Aewoleup and Jocheon-eup, and the odor concentration decreased in other areas. The number of civil petitions shows a consistent annual trend, with increased petitions from March, peaking during summer (July and August), and decreasing from September into winter. In Jeju-si, there were many civil petitions in Hallim-eup and Aewol-eup where there were many malodor control areas. However, in Seogwipo-si, there were also many civil petitions in Pyoseonmyeon, where there is no malodor control area. Additionally, we compared the average multiple of compound malodors and the rate of exceeding the maximum allowable emission level for compound malodors with the number of livestock malodor civil petitions to assess the actual state of malodors. The results reveal a stronger correlation between the number of civil petitions and the rate of exceeding the compound malodors allowable emission level than the average multiple for compound malodors. These findings provide valuable insights into addressing livestock odor concerns and enhancing malodor control measures in Jeju Island.

Shallow groundwater in rural areas is primarily polluted by agricultural activities. Nitrate-nitrogen is an indicator of artificial pollution. In this study, the hydrochemical characteristics and nitrate-nitrogen pollution of shallow groundwater were examined in two agricultural villages (Hyogyo-ri and Sinan-ri) in Chungcheongnam-do Province, Korea. Physicochemical quality analysis of shallow groundwater and stream water in the field, and chemical analysis in the laboratory were conducted from July 2020 to October 2021. In Hygyo-ri and Sinan-ri villages, shallow groundwater mainly b elonged t o the C a-Cl, Ca-H CO3, Na-HCO3, and Na-Cl types, whereas stream water predominantly belonged to the Ca-HCO3 type. The nitrate-nitrogen concentration in shallow groundwater varied depending on the season, displaying an increased concentration of nitrate-nitrogen in the dry season compared to the rainy season. Stream water may be influenced by runoff into villages from the surrounding area, although both shallow groundwater and stream water are affected by artificial pollution. In addition, the nitrate-nitrogen concentration in stream water was lower than that in shallow groundwater.

Radioactive materials depositied after nuclear accident or radiological emergency result in radiation exposure to individuals living in long-term contaminated territories. Therefore, the remedial actions should be taken on affected areas for the evacuated residents to return to their homes and normal lifestyle. Meanwhile, radiation exposure occurs through various pathways by work types during the site clean-up. Therefore, dose assessment is crucial to protect emergency workers and helpers from the potential radiological risk. This study estimated the exposure dose to individuals decontaminating the areas contaminated with 60Co, 63Ni, 90Sr, 134Cs, 137Cs, and then calculated the maximum workable soil concentration to comply with the reference level of 20 mSv/y for transition to existing exposure situations. For the realistic assessment, the detailed exposure scenarios depending on the types of work (excavation, collection, transportation, disposal, landfill), and the relevant exposure pathways were used. In addition, with the LHS (Latin Hypercube Sampling) - PRCC (Partial Rank Correlation Coefficient) method, sensitivity analysis was performed to identify the influence of the input parameters and their variation on the model outcomes. As a result, the most severe exposure-induced type was identified as the excavator operation with an annual individual dose of 4.75E-01 mSv at the unit soil concentration (1 Bq/g), from which the derived maximum workable soil concentration was 4.21E+01 Bq/g. Dose contribution by isotopes were found to be 60Co (55.63%), 134Cs (32.01%), and 137Cs (12.28%), and the impact of 63Ni and 90Sr were found to be negligible. Dose contribution by exposure pathways decreased in the following order: ground-shine, soil ingestion, dust inhalation, and skin contamination. Furthermore, the most high sensitive input parameters and their PRCC were found to be as the dilution factor (0.75) and as the exposure time (0.63). In conclusion, the results are expected to contribute to optimize radiation protection strategeis for recovery workers and to establish appropriate response procedures to be applicable in areas with high deposition density after a radiological or nuclear emergency.

This research attempts to identify the issues which make it more difficult to safeguard transboundary protected areas in the ASEAN countries. The research has found that national forest law, which relates only to the territory of each country, is not sufficient to safeguard the transboundary protected areas that spread across the boundaries of two or more countries. There is no national law, regional convention, or bilateral agreement among the ASEAN countries which directly provides for the conservation of transboundary protected areas. This author has adopted a legal approach to the protection of transboundary protected areas in Europe and has proposed that a regional convention or agreement should be used as an instrument to promote cooperation and sustainable management for the conservation of transboundary protected areas and to deal with problems that do not stop at national borders. The relevant domestic laws should be consistent with such a prospective regional convention or agreement.

2020년 이후 코로나-19로 인해 전 세계적으로 다양한 사회･경제적 문제가 발생하였고, 이로 인해 비대면 문화와 소셜 네트워크 서비스(SNS)를 통한 활동이 급격히 늘어났다. SNS 데이터는 저비용으로 많은 양의 데이터를 확보할 수 있으며, 다양한 정보를 포함하고 있어 도시 계획 및 운영에 활용될 수 있다. 이에 따라, 새로운 방법의 적용이 필요해졌고, 최근 발전한 인공지능 기술을 활용하여 공간 유형의 변화를 설명하는 것이 가능해졌다. 이를 위해 머신러닝 군집화 방법을 사용하여 관광지 분포 패턴 및 도시 관심 지역을 추출할 수 있게 되었다. 기존에는 군집화를 위해 K-means, DBSCAN을 활용해 왔으나. HDBSCAN에 대한 국내 연구 활용 사례는 부족한 상황이다. 따라서, 본 연구는 2019년과 2020년의 서울시 플리커 데이터와 HDBSCAN을 활용하여 도시 관심 지역에 대한 공간 유형의 변화를 설명하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 HDBSCAN 방법을 이용하여 플리커 게시물을 군집화하고 도시 관심 지역을 도출하였으며, 실루엣 점수를 통해 각 군집에 대한 군집화 정도를 점수화하였다. 연구 결과, 실제 서울 시내의 도심 및 부도심 등 주요 지점을 따라 군집이 도출되었고, 실루엣 점수를 활용한 평가 결과 군집화 정도가 통계적으로 유의미한 수준으로 계산되었다.

The objectives of this study were to analyze the fish community structures and distribution characteristics of fisheries resources in the Osip Stream and Wangpi Stream, fishery resources protection areas. For the study, we conducted fish samplings four times in the two streams from April to October 2019. In Osip Stream and Wangpi Stream, we sampled 31 species and 29 species and the dominant species were Zacco platypus (28.6%) and Squalidus multimaculatus (41.7%), respectively. According to the life type of fish species, primary freshwater species were collected 18 species (58.1%) and 21 species (72.4%), and migration fishes were sampled 4 species (12.9%) and 6 species (20.7%) in Osip Stream and Wangpi Stream, respectively. Fisheries resources species showed high relative abundance in June, and the fish biomass was highest in October. As a results of comparing the previous studies with this study, both rivers showed high biodiversity and were found to maintain stable populations of fishes. According to analysis of tolerance guilds, the proportion of tolerant species, based on the number of individuals, was composed of 14.4% and 1.1% in Osip Stream and Wangpi Stream, respectively. This very low ratio of tolerant species confirmed that both streams have very good physiochemical environment conditions. From the above results, it was judged that the fishery resource protection areas of Osip Stream and Wangpi Stream have high ecological function and preservation value. For sustainable use and management of fishery resource protection areas of Osip Stream and Wangpi Stream, it is suggested that biological disturbance management, fish discharge projects considering environmental capacity, efforts to improve the habitat environment, and establishing a fishery resource protection areas management system were necessary as considerations.
