Industrial complex areas are an important factor that contributes to economic development. However, these areas also produce a significant amount of noxious air pollutants. In particular, PM10 emitted from industrial complex areas can lead to detrimental effects on human health. This study was conducted to survey environmental conditions and measure the concentration of PM10 in indoor and outdoor living spaces in Yeosu and Gwangyang. In Yeosu, the level of PM10 concentration in indoor living spaces was measured at 49.38 μg/m3, while the outdoor level was measured at 43.60 μg/m3. In Gwangyang, the PM10 concentration in indoor living spaces was measured at 20.08 μg/m3 while the outdoor measurement came to 18.14 μg/m3. When analyzing the percentage of those who were highly concerned with environmental pollution among a survey group of 200 people, Yeosu City had a rate of 76.5%, while Gwangyang City had a comparable rate of 73%. When looking at the time-activity patterns of residents in both locations, Yeosu residents spend more than 80.0% of their time inside their living spaces, while Gwangyang residents spend more than 70.0% of time inside their living spaces. These high rates are largely due to the fact that most of the residents of these areas are elderly. In both Yeosu and Gwangyang, it was found that 40% of residents use TV and radio rather than newspapers or handouts to obtain information about environmental pollution problems in their area.

In this study, we aimed to explore whether eating alone is associated with mental health conditions in Korean adolescents. The data of 2,012 Korean adolescents aged 12-18 years were obtained from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2015–2019. Participants were classified into three groups based on the frequency of eating alone: none (all meals with others); 1 meal/day alone; and 2 meals/day alone. Mental health conditions were assessed based on stress recognition, depressive symptoms, and suicidal ideation. Multivariable logistic regressions were employed to calculate the adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of poor mental health conditions according to the frequency of eating alone. Adolescents who ate 2 meals/day alone had higher odds of stress recognition (AOR: 2.65, 95% CI: 1.94- 3.63), depressive symptoms (AOR: 2.55, 95% CI: 1.47-4.42), and suicidal ideation (AOR: 2.53, 95% CI: 1.05-6.08) than those who ate all their meals with others. In addition, having breakfast or dinner alone increased the odds of stress recognition. Considering the continuous increase in the social phenomenon of eating alone, nutritional educations are needed to develop adolescents' ability to choose more nutritionally balanced and healthy meals when eating alone.

The research was analyzed the catch data of the five years (2016-2020) for six joint venture company tuna purse seiners in the Atlantic Ocean, with the aim of suggesting improvement measures for responsible and sustainable fishing according to changes of recommendation by International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tuna (ICCAT) on the tropical tunas. In the last five years, the average catch of six tuna purse seiner gradually increased to 7,745 tons, 8,364 tons and 9,053 tons from 2016 to 2018, but decreased to 7,761 tons in 2019 and 6,214 tons in 2020. The reason for the decrease in fishing volume in 2019 and 2020 was the fluctuation of the formation of the cold water zone (22-23℃), and the total ICCAT convention area of FAD closure in January and February due to the expansion of the FAD closure area and poor free school catching during two months period, respectively. The analysis on fishing area showed that the percentage of fishing in the high sea was about 85% although the FAD closure area included the EEZ zone in coastal countries; the rise of the fishing license in coastal countries is also believed to be a factor. In order to overcome such situations and improve catching volume, it will be possible if excellent manpower is secured, school fishing is expanded, and the production of high value-added catch (purse seine special: PS).

This experiment was carried out to study the effects of different environmental conditions and cultivation techniques on productivity of grasslands in central and southern area of Korea on 2017 and 2018. Average dry matter yield of grasslands at 10 actual production sites was 7,496 kg/ha. that was ranged from 4,652 to 13,292 kg/ha with least significant difference(LSD) of 1,577kg/ha between grasslands (p<0.05) on 2017. Average dry matter yield of grasslands at 10 actual production sites was 7,914 kg/ha. that was ranged from 3,927 to 12,372 kg/ha with LSD of 1,577kg/ha between grasslands(p<0.05) on 2018. Dry matter(DM) yield of grasslands have positive correlation with soil fertility (p<0.01) but not correlated with rainfall and air temperature among cultivation environments. And also DM yield of grasslands have positive correlation with grassland management techniques(p<0.01). These results suggest that practices of grassland management techniques and improvement of soil fertility are more important than cultivation environments by climate change for increasing the DM yield of grassland in central and southern area of Korea.

스마트 온실은 주로 파프리카, 토마토, 딸기와 같은 과채류 작물을 대상으로 보급되었다. 스마트 온실의 보급량은 지속적으로 증가하고 있지만, 그 실태에 대한 조사는 부족하다. 그러므로, 이번 연구를 통해 한국의 스마트 온실의 시설 규모, 재배작물, 재배방법, 발생 병해충과 실사용자의 평가를 중심으로 한 현 실태를 파악하고자 하였다. 스마트 온실의 리스트는 각 권역별 현장지원센터로부터 제공받았으며, 모든 조사는 농가를 직접 방문하여 수행되었다. 조사된 스마트 온실 농가의 약 50%가 3,300 m2~6,600 m2사이의 규모로 운영하고 있었다. 조사된 농가 중 97.1% 가 화학적 방법을 이용해 병해충을 방제하고 있었다. 조사된 농가에서 응답한 주요 식물병은 흰가루병과 잿빛곰팡이병으로 각각 54.4%, 33.8% 비율로 주로 문제가 되는 식물병이라고 응답하였다. 모든 토마토 농가에서 가루이류가 가장 문제가 되는 해충이라고 응답하였다. 그러나, 파프리카 농가의 76.5%, 70.6%가 총채벌레류와 진딧물류를 가장 문제가 된다고 응답하였다. 스마트 온실에 대한 사용자의 만족도는 10점 만점에 평균 7.5점이었다. 이 결과는 한국의 현재 스마트 온실을 관리하고 미래 스마트 온실을 설계하는 계획을 세우는 데 도움이 될 것이라 생각된다.

This experiment was carried out to study the effects of different environmental conditions and cultivation techniques on productivity of forage corn in central and southern area of Korea on 2017 and 2018. Average dry matter yield of forage corn at 34 cultivation regions was 13,510kg/ha. Forage productivity of forage corn cultivated at actual production sites have positive correlation with cultivation techniques(p<0.01) but not correlated with cultivation environments. Forage productivity of forage corn have positive correlation with seeding techniques(p<0.01) but not correlated with fertilization techniques. These results suggest that practices of cultivation techniques are more important than cultivation environments for increasing the forage productivity of forage corn. Therefore, yield prediction techniques of forage corn in Korea have to be considered the practices of cultivation techniques along with soil and climate conditions.

본 연구는 이탈리안 라이그라스 재배현장에서 재배환경과 재배기술의 차이에 따른 조사료 생산성의 변화 요인을 분석 하기 위하여 2016부터 2017년까지 수행되었다. 우리나라 중부 및 남부지역에서 27개 이탈리안 라이그라스 재배지의 평균 건물수량은 6,940kg/ha이였다. 이탈리안 라이그라스 재배현장의 생산성은 재배환경보다 재배기술과 높은 상관(p<0.01)이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 재배기술 중에서 파종기술 및 포장관리기술과 생산성 간에는 고도의 상관이 있었으나, 시비기술과 생산성 간에는 상관이 없었다. 이상의 결과는 이탈리안 라이그라스의 생산성 향상에는 재배환경보다 재배기술의 현장실천이 더 중요함을 제시하고 있다. 따라서 우리나라 지역별 이탈리안 라이그라스의 생산성 예측기술의 정밀도를 높이기 위해서는 그 지역의 기상 및 토양환경은 물론 재배기술의 적용을 충분히 고려하여야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Cultivation of high-quality forage crop by using fallow field during winter is required for national high feed self-sufficiency and establishment of self-supply system of high-quality forage crop. Field experiments for cultivation of high-quality winter forage crop were conducted at the paddy and upland fields in Cheonan and Anseong city with treatments of single Italian ryegrass(IRG) and IRG mixed with forage barley at the paddy field and of single forage barley and forage barley mixed with IRG at the upland field in the Mid-west plain. Several cultivation conditions such as broadcasting IRG seed under standing rice, sowing time, tillage method, drainage condition, mixed sowing with forage barley were compared to know the change of growth, yield and quality of winter forage crop. In particular, over-wintering rate and dry matter yield were decreased significantly in late-sown IRG and moisture-stressed forage barley. Yield and quality of forage crops were increased by sowing after tillage, mixed sowing of IRG with barley at the paddy field with good drainage. High yield as much as dry matter 10 MT ha-1 with high feed value could be obtained by early sowing of feed barley mixed with IRG at the upland field. Cultivation conditions such as early sowing, sowing after tillage, drainage management are required for higher dry matter yield, quality and stable cultivation of winter forage crops in the mid-west plain of Korea.

남부지역 덜꿩나무 집단 중 우점도가 높은 6개 지역을 대상으로 식생구조 및 토양특성을 분석하여 조 경용으로서 가치가 높은 덜꿩나무 자생지의 생육환경을 파악하여 생육 적지는 선정하는데 기초자료를 제공하고자 수행하였다. 자생지 내의 목본식물은 교목층 13수종, 아교목층 38수종, 관목층 48수종으로 총 68수종이 분포하였다. 평균상대우점치(MIV)가 높은 수종은 소나무, 굴참나무, 생강나무, 산벚나무, 땅비싸리, 당단풍나무, 진달래, 정금나무, 작살나무 등이었으며, 전 조사지역에서 공통적으로 출현한 수 종은 졸참나무와 때죽나무 2수종이었다. 덜꿩나무와 유사한 생태적 지위를 갖는 정의 상관관계를 나타 내는 수종들은 자귀나무와 노린재나무 2수종으로 나타난 반면 굴피나무는 부의 상관관계가 있어 서로 생태적 지위가 이질적인 것으로 나타났다. 자생지의 종다양도(H’), 최대종다양도(H’max), 균재도(J’) 및 우점도(1-J’)는 각각 0.887, 1.102, 0.803, 0.196으로 나타났다. 자생지의 토양특성은 pH 4.3, 유 기물함량 10.6%, 전질소함량 0.34% 및 유효인산 0.68㎎ ㎏-1로 나타났으며, 치환성양이온은 Ca2+ (16.84 cmolc ㎏-1) > K+(6.41 cmolc ㎏-1) > Mg2+(4.26 cmolc ㎏-1) 순으로 높은 함량을 나타냈다. 남 부지역 덜꿩나무 집단은 유기물 함량이 풍부하고 양이온 치환용량이 높은 강산성 토양으로 질소의 함량 에 비해 인산의 함량이 다소 높은 곳에서 자라는 경향이 있었다.

온실의 냉난방시스템 설계 기준에 적용하기 위한 외부 기상조건을 설정하기 위하여 난방 설계용 외기온, 난방 degree-hour, 냉방 설계용 건구온도, 습구온도, 일사량을 분석하여 제시하였다. 우리나라 전 지역을 대상으로 현재 기상청에서 제공하는 기후평년값 기준인 1981~2010 년까지 30년간의 매 시각 기상자료를 분석에 사용하였다. 표준기상데이터의 이용이 제한적이기 때문에 30년간의 전체 기상자료를 이용하여 설계용 기상조건을 구하고, 전체 자료기간의 평균값을 설계기준으로 제시하였다. TAC 방식으로 위험률 1, 2.5, 5%에 대한 설계용 기상자료를 분석하고, 설계기준에서 추천하고 있는 난방용은 위험률 1%, 냉방용은 위험률 2.5%의 기상조건 분포도를 제시하였다. 지역별, 위험률별 및 설정온도별로 최대난방부하, 기간난방부하 및 최대냉방부하의 변화를 고찰하였다. 제시된 각종 설계용 기상조건은 온실의 냉난방시스템 설계에 직접 이용할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 냉난방 설비 보강이나 에너지 절감대책의 수립에 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 한편 기후변화로 인하여 최근 여름철 폭염이나 겨울철 이상고온 현상이 자주 발생하고 있으므로 주기적인 설계용 기상자료의 분석이 필요하고, 최소한 10 년 주기로 설계기준을 개정할 필요가 있는 것으로 생각 된다. 본 연구에서는 현재 기후평년값 기준인 1981 ~2010년까지의 기상자료를 분석하였으나 이 기준이 1991~2020년으로 바뀌는 2021년에는 즉시 이 기간의 기상자료를 분석하여 새로운 설계기준으로 제공해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This article aims to draw up suggestions on conditions for participatory rural development in Korea. Rural development policies since 2000 have emphasized local community participation. However obstacles are identifed such as the troubled circumstances in which local communities face and the lack of governments’ understanding over locality in implementing participatory rural development. Endogenous self-organizations, local participation, capacitation and empowerment, local governance through partnership are important conditions to be met during the participatory development projects. These are realized not just by the aggregation of separate individuals but by linking them together and interdependent.
