Establishing the Managerial Boundary of the Baekdu-daegan(II) - In the Case of Semi-mountainous District -

백두대간 관리범위 설정에 관한 연구(II) - 준산악형 구간을 대상으로 -

Baekdu-daegan is the greatest mountain chain as well as the major ecological axis of the Korean Peninsula. In recent year, however, this area is faced with the various kinds of developmental urge. To cope adequately with these problems, this study was executed to prepare synthetic and systematic management with conservation-oriented strategy for Baekdu-daegan and to suggest spatially definite zoning for the managerial area. This study is to take into consideration the traditional concepts of stream and watershed as well as the actual disturbance on Baekdu-daegan area. The study area is selected with semi-mountainous type, from Namdeokyusan to Sosagogae. To propose the process for reasonably establishing the managerial boundary adjacent to the Ridges, the analysis was carried out that ArcGIS was mainly used for its analysis with digital maps, Landsat TM image and ArcGIS Hydro Model. Landsat TM image was classified by 5 land use types such as cultivated land, urban area, barren area, water body and forest. Based on these analyses results, the managerial boundaries as alternatives from the Ridges were produced by watershed expansion process, and used for tracing the changes of areal ratio of various land use types to the relevant watersheds to search out the adequate managerial boundary. The results show that watershed expansion process could be effective tool for establishing the managerial boundary, and eighth expanded watershed toward Muju-Gun(west) and fifth expanded watershed toward Geochang-Gun(east) might be included for the adequate managerial boundary of the case site.

백두대간은 국토의 근간이자 중요한 생태축이다. 그러나 최근 백두대간 지역을 대상으로 한 각종 개발요구가 증가함에 따라 이에 적절히 대응하기 위한 보전 전략 수립과 체계적인 관리의 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 이 연구는 백두대간 지역을 효율적으로 보호하기 위한 관리구역 설정을 제안하고자 수행하였다. 접근 방법은 백두대간의 적절한 관리범위 설정을 위해 수계 및 유역을 바탕으로 인간 간섭의 영향정도를 파악하는 것으로, 수치지도, Landsat TM 영상 등이 사용되었다. 준산악지형의 특성을 갖는 남덕유산~소사고개 구간을 대상으로 유역확장방식을 사용하여 유역차수에 따른 경작지, 도시, 나지, 수계, 산림 등의 토지이용상태의 변화를 추적하였다. 그 결과 유역확장방식은 백두대간 관리범위 설정기법으로 효율적이었으며, 관리범위는 마루금을 중심으로 무주(8차)와 거창(5차) 방향이 상이하게 설정되었다.
