Trend of sea level change has been analysed by using the tidal data gathered at the 12 tide stations along the coast of Korean peninsula. Analysis and prediction of the sea level change were performed by Principal Component Analysis (PCA). For the period of 20 years from 1976 to 1995, the trend generally shows a rising pattern such as 0.22 cm/yr, 0.29 cm/yr, and 0.59 cm/yr along the eastern, southern, and western coast of Korea, respectively. On the average the sea level around the Korean peninsula seems to be rising at a rate of 0.37 cm/yr. Adopting the average rate to the sea level prediction model proposed by EPA (Titus and Narrayanan, 1995), the sea level may be approximately 50$\~$60 cm higher than the present sea level by the end of the next century.

As it was shown recently, climate changes in Antarctica resulted in interannual trends of some climatic parameters like sea level pressure, surface air temperature, ice thickness and others. These tendencies have effect on the Southern Ocean meteorological and hydrological regime. The following remote sensing data: AVHRR MCSST data, satellite altimetry data (merged data of mission ERS-2, TOPEX/Poseidon, Jason-1, ENVISAT, GFO-1) are used to analyse the interannual and/or climatic tendency of sea surface temperature (SST) and sea level anomaly (SLA). According to the obtained results, SST has negative trend $-0.02{\pm}0.003^{\circ}C/yr$ for 24-yr record (1982-2005) and SLA has positive trend $0.01{\pm}0.005$ cm/yr for 24-yr record (1982-2005) and $0.24{\pm}0.026$ cm/yr for 12-yr record (1993-2005). However in some areas (for example, Pacific-Antarctic Ridge) SST and SLA tendencies are stronger $-0.065{\pm}0.007^{\circ}C/yr$ and $-0.21{\pm}0.05$ cm/yr, respectively.

Although the CM(construction management) market in Korea has shown rapid growth, unlike other market sectors, there has been lack of a system by which the economy trend of the CM market can be analyzed. The objective of the paper is to analyse and identify key characteristics of the CM market as of the third quarter of 2010 by using the CMBSI(Construction Management Business Survey Index) which was proposed in the previous study. In the paper, the CMBSI is used as the main index along with other five supplementary indices. The use of the CMBSI can contribute to enhancing the understanding of CM market situation and prospect, and also to providing information for CM policy and regulations.

Recently, the application of construction management system is being increased and various research activities by each specific field are going on many universities and research institutes. It is necessary to understand the latest research trends by each subject for keeping up excellent products in CM field. This study suggests a subject breakdown structure for classifying detailed technologies of CM field. And over 2,000 domestic and international papers in the last five years are analyzed for analogizing research trends by each subject. The analyzed results include research trends by year and strong and weak fields by each research subject of CM technology. Finally, this study suggests an improved countermeasure for guaranteeing sustainable research activation in CM field.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of bulb size (10, 15, 20, 25 cm) on growth and yield characteristics of edible canna in Jeju region from 20 May to 24 Nov. 2003. The results obtained were summarized as follows; Plant height grew big 78.8~129.1 cm as bulb size increased 10~25 cm. Leaf length, leaf width, number of leaves, tillers and bulb per plant and stem diameter were the same trend with plant height response. Fresh matter yield increased 29.0~91.1 MT/ha as bulb size increased from 10 to 25 cm. Fresh weight of above-ground part and bulb yield were the same trend with fresh matter yield.

Domestic marbles are mostly distributed in Gyeonggi and Yeongnam Massifs, southwest and northeast Ogcheon Belts, which belong to Precambrian, age-unknown, Cambrian-Ordovician ages, respectively. The former marbles occur as interbedded rocks in metasediments and xenoliths in granitic gneisses. Age-unknown ones occur as interbedded in the formations of Hyangsanri, Gyeomyeongsan, Hwajeonri and Munjuri, and some in metasedimentary rocks. The latter ones occur as interbedded in Pungchon Limestone, and in Jeongseon Limestone, Hwacheonri Formation and Great Limestone Group, respectively. Among physical properties, porosity shows irregular patterns to density and compressive strength, respectively. Absorption ratio has a linear pattern of positive trend to porosity, and compressive strength mostly shows a positive trend to tensile strength. Compressive strengths of the marbles are as follows : Precambrian $1,106{\;}kg/\textrm{cm}^2$, age-unknown $935{\;}kg/\textrm{cm}^2$. Cambrian $1,162{\;}kg/\textrm{cm}^2$ and Ordovician $1,560{\;}kg/\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. Tensile strengths have decreasing trends as the above order of geologic age. In diagrams of major elements, $Al_2O_3,{\;}Fe_2O_{3(t)}{\;}and{\;}Na_2O+K_2O$ generally show positive trends with increasing $v_2$. MgO/CaO of Precambrian and age-unknown marbles have much higher values than Cambrian and Ordovician marbles as follows, Precambrian 0.31, age-unknown 0.30, Cambrian 0.03 and Ordovician 0.08. And MgO shows a negative trend with increasing CaO, which nay be caused by dolomitization. By MgO contents they can be classified into calcitic dolomite, dolomitic limestone, limestone and dolomitic limestone, respectively.

CM services have continued to grow since the establishment of CM policies in 1997. Recently, strategies for overseas CM services have widely been discussed, because the CM services have expected synergy with planning, engineering, procurement and construction. However, there has been lack of quantitative and comprehensive research to investigate CM trends and prospects. In this sense, the purpose of this research is to statistically analyze total of 2,983 CM service contracts over the past 16 years (between 1997 and 2013) published in KISCON (Knowledge Information System of Construction Industry) in order to examine current status and future direction of CM industry.

Although constructions are getting diverse, larger in size, and higher-storied, we witness that CM technologies are not coping with such a growing trend. In particular, CM, one of vulnerable areas, shall continue to be given priority hereafter. The research has been conducted with a strong focus on total design and supervision offices already specializing in CM projects, in order to prepare for the future activated CM markets. Authors have sought to find mistakes in the process of being in control of CM works and create measures to boost CM through case-study, documentary research, and interviews with experts. It excludes theoretical research, as many data are already accumulated domestic and abroad.

In order to study the optimum depth for the soil geochemical exploration in the area which is affected by agricultural activities and waste disposal of metal mine, the soil samples were sampled from the B layer of residual soil and vertical 7 layers up to 250 cm in the rice field and 3 layers up to 90 cm in the ordinary field. They were analyzed for Au, As, Cu, Pb and Zn by AAS, AAS-graphite furnace and ICP. To investigate the proper depth for the soil sampling in the contaminated area, the data were treated statistically by applying correlation coefficient, factor analysis and trend analysis. It is conclude that soil geochemical exploration method could be applied in the farm-land and a little contaminated area. The optimum depth of soil sampling is 60 cm in the ordinary field, and 150~200 cm in the rice field. Soil sampling in the area of a huge mine waste disposal is not recommendable. Plotting of geochemical map with factor scores as a input data shows a clear pattern compared with the map of indicater element such as As or Au. The second or third degree trend surface analysis is effective in inferring the continuity of vein in the area where the outcrop is invisible.

Since construction management(CM) was recognized as a formal procurement route by law in 1995, it is interesting to observe the trend of its increasing adoption. Particularly in the public sector, local government clients more adopted the CM Procurement route than central government clients. The objective of this paper is to investigate and analyse the motivation of local government clients in selecting the CM procurement route. It is important to understand such motivation for achieving a better understanding of public client's CM needs and for promoting CM business in the public sector.
