The landscape changes at the Mujechi moors I and II during the last twenty two years were analysed using a tree ring analysis of pine trees, a distributional pattern of pine tree, an aerial photograph interpretation and a measurement of firebreak line. The analysis of aerial photographs(taken in 1978, 1988, 1998) indicates that the area of Mujechi moors I and II have gradually decreased. The decreased rate of moor area was relatively high, i.e.,-23.9 %(1978~1988) and -16.4 %(1998~1998) at the Mujechi moor I, but a little bit low, i.e., -2.6% (1978~1988) and -12.6 % (1998~1998) at the Mujechi moor II. However, dendrochronological analysis of pine trees at moors I and II shows that the appearance rates of pine trees per $100\textrm{m}^2$ at moor I and II were 0.28 and 0.57 respectively. And the number of younger pine trees(height is under 1.5m, DBH is less than 2.5 cm) invaded into moors are numbered eleven at the moor I, and ten at the moor II. This shows that the shift of a wetlands into a land was faster at the moor II than the moor I. The construction of a firebreak line and waterway along the moors I and II areas since the December, 1995, has diverted watershed flow and prohibited the runoff flow into the moors. The analysis of GIS suggests that the decreased watershed area were about $11,413.8\textrm{m}^2$(12.1 % of whole watershed area) at the moor I and $15,969.5\textrm{m}^2$(40.4 % of whole watershed area) at the moor II. The negative impact of firebreak line on the inflow of water into the moors I and II and destruction of vegetation along the firebreak line are noticeable from the field survey.

In order to identify soil characteristics and to estimate the age of wetland, soil samples of Mt. Sohwangbyoung wetland and Jilmoi wetland known as peatland in Odaesan National Park.were collected and analyzed. Soil pH of Mt. Sohwangbyoung wetland and Jilmoi wetland showed average pH of 5.5, and did now show any significant difference according to the time and plant community. Total ionic content of soil showed different values among plant communities, but no difference by time in each plant community. Soil exchangeable cations such as Na, K and Mg showed a similar pattern of total ionic content. Unlike other cations, however, Ca content showed significant differences according to the plant community and time. Soil organic matter and total nitrogen contents showed remarkable differences according to plant community, and especially showed very low valeus at the place where Sphagnum palustre distributes. Based on the results of the above, Mt. Sohwangbyoung wetland and Jilmoi wetland can be considered as weakly acidic bog. From age analysis, two wetlands are estimated to have been formed before 100 AD for Mt. Sohwangbyoung wetland and 1448 AD for Jilmoi wetland, respectively.

The purpose of this paper is to elucidate the formation process of the Second Mujechi Moor at Mt. Jeongjok. For doing so, 1 analysed the formation process of valley which moor is located in, and the formation process of block field damming the valley: First, it is not a valley but a hollow which the Second Mujechi Moor located in. Hollow was formed as weathering bedrock weathered deeply along joints under warm and wet climatic conditions was denudated by rain wash. Second, the Second Mujechi Moor had been a marginal lake. Block stream developed during the last glacial period of Pleistocene, and it dammed the mouth of hollow. Afterwards sediments transported from slope filled the marginal lake, thus the lake changed to the moor where aquatic plants could grown. Third, the Second Mujechi Moor is drained and dried out by removal of matrix material from the block stream dam of the mouth of moor. For keeping moor's present conditions, we must control moor's drainage by filling open space in block stream with fine material.

한반도는 산악지형이 우세하기 때문에 늪지나 호수의 발달이 불량하다. 현재 소규모 의 자연늪지는 낙동가 하류지역에 분포하며 동해안을 따라 일부 해안지역에 발달하여 있을 뿐이다. 고산지역에도 소규모의 늪지가 최근에 발견되었는데 그중에서도 무제치늪이 국내의 가장 남동쪽에 위치하고 있다. 정족산 정상부를 향하여 4개의 늪지가 차례대로 발달하여있 는데 이들의 성인은 온도차이에 의한 기계적풍화와 암석 차이에 의한 화학적 풍화적작용의 결과로 해석된다, 이들의 형성시기는 제 2늪의 습원퇴적이 가장 오래되 지층으로서 100~ 105cm 심도에서 탄소동위원소 연대측정으로 5,960$\pm$110yr BP. 의결과를 보이고 있드며 제 1늪의 습원 퇴적은 지표로부터 64~69cm 심도의 토탄층 최하부 부분에서 1,785$\pm$120yr BP. 의 연대측정 결과를 확인하였다.

The purpose of this paper is to elucidate the formation processes of Hwaeumneup in Cheonseong Mountain which was designated as Wetland Conservation Area in 2002, and to offer data essential to sustainable management of wetland. According to wetland core samples and carbon dating of humus, grassland of Hwaeumneup Wetland Reservation resulted from slash-and-burn agriculture in no reference with climatic changes of last glacial period. And Hwaeumneup is a alpine wetland that is formed as rain water over Cheonseong Mountain crest area infiltrates into bedrock, springs out along joint line below main ridge, and dampens gentle grassland. It needs to support dense vegetation of southwestern ridge of Wetland Reservation in order to sustain water volumn of Hwaeumneup wetland, and to keep from breakdown of block dam at downstream fringe of wetland. And it needs to measure and analyse micro-topography and hydrology changes in Hwaeumneup Wetland Reservation through periodic monitoring.

To evaluate the sustainability assessment of eco-tourism resources, the assessment of Upo wetland was conducted by defining mathematical assessment models, by developing assessment indicators and by calculating the weight of main factors affecting on the sustainability through questionnaires analysis of 135 eco-tourism experts group. After that, the current sustainability grade level for Upo wetland was confirmed, and grade-level enhancement measures on each items were proposed. Although, this paper was focused on Upo wetland, but it is meaningful to prepare for the foundation in the sense of assessing scientifically and systematically the sustainability by providing concrete research model and method for the sustainability assessment of eco-tourism resources.

It was investigated what is the reasonable landcover classification system for the nonpoint pollution models. According to the parameters of the nonpoint pollution models, runoff curve number, crop management factor and Manning's roughness coefficient, the landcover classification system was proposed to manage the drainage basin of the Woopo wetland. Also, the rule-based classification method was adopted to extract the landcover information for this study area.

This study investigates to explain preference heterogeneity of respondents for economic valuation in washland of Upo wetland using Mixed Logit Model and Latent Class Model. Mixed Logit Model showed respondent heterogeneity in the attributes of wetland area and funds as well as some alternatives violated IIA assumption. 2-class Latent Class Model for respondents were used to explain the sources of the heterogeneity. Class 1 respondents who are located relatively close to Upo wetland had more experience and knowledge of Upo wetland and better understood the information suggested in the questionnaire than class 2 respondents in mostly metropolitan area of Seoul, Incheon.
