  • The purpose of this study was to investigate and suggesting plans for the Gonggeumji rice paddy wetland ecotourism with ecological, cultural and historical resources. Compare to previous other ecotourism resources including insects, birds and other ecological resources, this study used rice paddy wetland as ecotourism resources. The wetland ecotourism could be more promoted with networking of resources, historical experiences of Goryung Gaya Kingdom, leisure sports tourism with bicycling, the residents'cultural resources including traditional folk song village experiences.

  • Gonggeomji, located at the outlet of intermontane basin in the upper reaches of Dong River, is known as being constructed in the late Unified Silla Dynasty. Extensive wetlands were developed before the construction of embankment at Gonggeomji and very compact silty layers were deposited during dry seasons. Paniceae was cultivated on a dry field in the basin during the early Bronze and Iron Ages. Although it is supposed that agricultural activities on a paddy and dry field prevailed during the Three Kingdoms Age, the indicating layer was not found. As the construction of the embankment, Oryza sativa as well as Paniceae were cultivated in the basin at the same time. The climates during the early Bronze are cool and Iron Ages are estimated to be generally warm. From the late Unified Silla Dynasty and middle Goryeo Dynasty when the embankment was constructed, it was still warm, and then, shows alterations between cool and warm conditions. Since the late Goryeo Dynasty, it gradually became cool.

  • This study was conducted to know the wetland insect diversity at Gonggeom-ji in Sangju city which is the first designated paddy field wetland protection by the Ministry of Environment of Korea in 2011. Data was collected at four times from March to November in 2014 using by Searching, Sweeping and Pitfall trap methods. In this study a total of 227 species of 205 genera belonging to 78 families from 8 orders were collected and individuals were 1,327. Among them, the order of Coleoptera was the most species-rich (42.73%), Hemiptera was the second order (22.47%). In the total diversity index (H') was 6.339 that means highly positive. Dominant Index (DI) was 0.143, Evenness index (EI) was 0.810. Over all survey periods, interspecies competitiveness was high, and community stability was also high. Therefore Gonggeom-ji wetland revealed stable and positive environmental situation.

  • Embankment of reservoir Gonggeomji in Sangju has been continuously added since the construction. After approximately 1220 yr BP of late Unified Silla dynasty when the embankment was firstly constructed, there were piled up four times with an interval of approximately 50 years until ca. 980 yr BP of late Goryeo dynasty. The first two times were relatively piled up high, while another two times were made slightly high. After addition of embankment, water level gradually became low and the quality also bad with increase of benthic- and epipitic diatoms than planktonic ones. Shoaling of reservoir was probably resulted from severe vegetation destructions on the small river basins flowing into Gonggeomji. After approximately 980 yr BP, water level rose during approximately 50 years due to precipitation increase.

  • Knowing how many species live in a ecosystem is a major work because of the distributions of species are determined by the environmental condition. This study was carried out to investigate the distribution of vascular plants of Gonggeom-ji, located in Sangju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, from April to October on 2012. The vascular plants were summarized as 240 taxa including 69 families, 176 genus, 204 species, 2 subspecies, 29 varieties, and 5 forma. Among the investigated taxa, 3 taxa of Korean endemic plants were included. Based on the list of specially designated plants by Ministry of Environment, 11 taxa including Alisma orientale, Monochoria korsakowii and Nymphoides peltata were recorded. The naturalized plants were identified as 26 taxa and the ratio of naturalized index (NI) was 10.8% of vascular plants recorded. 31 taxa of hydrophytes showed 17.8% of Korea. To conservation of wetlands, we suggest that it is required to minimize for unnecessary disturbance of human and to make a strategy for effective management by continuous monitoring for ecosystem alteration.

  • The Gonggeomji Reservoir is a historical irrigation facility built in the 8th century and designated as a wetland protected area by Ministry of Environment, Korea. In order to collect the baseline data necessary for developing a sustainable conservation strategy, we investigated the classification of actual vegetation, the vegetation distribution and the floristic structure of the vegetation in the Gonggeomji Wetland Protection Area. In the whole protection area, a total of 26 plant communities were classified including the wetland, riparian, grassland, forest, farmland, and orchard vegetation. According to the results of detrended correspondence analysis, the structure of wetland vegetation was mainly affected by water depth and human disturbance. In reservoir wetlands, floating vegetation such as Utricularia vulgaris var. japonica, Trapa japonica, and emergent vegetation such as Nelumbo nucifera, Typha spp. completely covered the water surface. Since 2014, the reservoir wetland has been terrestrialized with the expansion of emergent and hygrophytic plants. For the sustainable conservation and restoration of wetland protected areas, it is necessary to naturalize the topography and wetland vegetation, recovery the hydrologic system, and restore ecosystem connectivity from wetlands to forests.
