Ecosystem is composed of human, biotic and abiotic environment. Landscape is an ecosystem which appear in a unit region. These landscape are the spatiotemporal land mosaic which is combined with various landscape elements. And, land use and land cover changes are important factors of landscape structure changes. This study is mainly focused on the analysing the spatiotemporal change patterns of Daegu metropolitan sphere forest landscape, using landscape indices and Ecosystem Service Value (ESV) which quantify ecosystem structures and functions. The results of this study are as follow: The encroachment and fragmentation of forest were due to linear developments, i. e. road construction, rather than large-scale developments such as residental lands or industrial complexes. And, the core area percentages of landscape gradually decreased and these could possibly deteriorate the soundness of forest areas by reducing the core areas which are habitats of species. In addition, there was intimate relations between ESV and forest landscape area. The results of this study can be detached standards for impartial judgements between the logic of development & conservation, and basic standards for the establishment of development plans, i. e. metropolitan-plans, which are adequately reflected ecosystem value.

본 논문의 목적은 김 양식 있어서 무기산 또는 유기산 사용 문제와 김 양식 어업인들의 생산위험 회피행위를 고찰하기 위한 이론적 틀을 개발하고, 정책함의를 도출하는데 있다. 김 양식의 생산위험 또는 가격위험은 김 양식 어업인들이 직면하고 있는 가장 중요한 의 사길정변수라고 할 수 있으며, 특히 문제가 되고 있는 무기산(또는 폐염산) 또는 유기산은 농업에 있어서 농약처럼 김 양식 어업인들이 생산위험을 최소화하기 위한 일종의 보험 생산요소(insurance production inputs)으로 볼 수 있다. 김 양식 어업인들의 생산위험은 평균(1차 적률 mean), 분산(2차 적률 variance), 왜곡도(3차 적률 skewnesss)에 의해 측정될 수 있으며, 특히 김 양식 어업인들은 확률이 낮을지라도 일단 첫병과 잡태(예: 파래 등)가 광범위하고 심각하게 발생하게 되면 생산물의 심각한 질적 저하가 야기된다는 사실을 경험적으로 인식하고 있다. 따라서 김 양식 어업인들은 평균생산 뿐만 아니라 생산의 분산과 하향성 확률 분포를 최소화할 수 있는 생산기술을 이용하게 된다. 이러한 김 양식 어업인들의 위험회피행위를 분석하기 위해 기대효용이론을 채택하고, 미지의 진효용함수를 테일러 시리즈 확장에 의해 3차 적률까지를 근사치로 이용하였다. 이윤에 대한 기대효용 극대화를 위한 1차 최적조건을 구하면, 어떤 산(무기산 또는 유기산)을 얼마만큼 이용하느냐 하는 문제는 생산량의 분산과 하향성 분포에 대한 김 양식 어업인들의 위험회피계수의 크기와 생산요소의 탄성치에 의해 결정된다. 특히 하향성 위험회피계수가 높고 3차 적률에 대한 생산요소 산의 탄성치가 클 경우 김 양식 어업인들른 하향성 위험을 줄이기 위해 상대적으로 강력하고 가격이 저렴한 산을 더 많이 이용하게 된다. 또한 두 가지 산의 효과가 같다면 무기산/유기산의 시장가격과 정부 산 가격 정책이 김 양식 어업인들의 산 종류 선택과 사용량 결정에 유의한 영향을 미치게 될 것이다. 무기산의 사용이 광범위하고 집약적으로 이루어질 경우 김 양식부문에서 폐공업용 염산 이용에 의한 생산위험 감소는 해양생태환경 파괴위험 증가로 이어질 수 있으며 여기에 바로 정부 산정책의 딜레마가 있다. 따라서 김 양식의 생산성 증대와 환경보전의 균형 유지에 대한 확고한 정책목표가 필요하며, 이러한 정책목표가 흔들릴 경우 산 문제에 대한 정부정책은 생산성 증대와 환경보전 어느 한쪽 부문에 심각한 왜곡현상을 초래할 수 있다.

This ecological study was conducted to analyze seasonal variation characteristics of Zostera marina at HAENAM SAGUMI on the Southern Coast of Korea. Environmental characteristics, plant morphological characteristics, shoot density, biomass, and leaf production were monitored from August 2008 to March 2011. Zostera marina occurred in the subtidal zone from 0 to 2.5 m below the mean low water level. Water temperature showed a clear annual pattern, with increase in spring and summer, and decreases in fall and winter. Irradiance showed seasonal variation, even though daily weather condition has short-term variation in the incident irradiation. Plant morphological characteristics, shoot density, biomass, and leaf production showed clear seasonal variation. Seasonal variation in the above biomass of Zostera marina was mainly caused by changes in shoot length. We found that there are correlations between environmental characteristics (water temperature, irradiation) and the growth of Zostera marina. There is stronger correlation between water temperature and the growth of Zostera marina, compared to the correlation between irradiation and the growth of Zostera marina. In particular, the growth of Zostera marina is inhibited by both higher and lower water temperature.

This study was carried to establish a new landscape-oriented gardening model based on climate, vegetation, and forest landscape characteristics. In addition, innovative forest garden models were suggested through an integrated approach to the ecological characteristics of forest vegetation communities and existing garden planting types. For the study, the key landscape elements that make up the main forest vegetation community were identified. And the vertical layers and horizontal distribution patterns of the community structure were typified by diagnostic species and their growth forms & habits such as dominant species, character species, and differential species, and degree of dominance-sociability. Based on this, a standardized vegetation structure and formation was developed by stratifying the landscape into main features, minor features, and detailed features according to visual dominant elements. Also, the applicability of the forest garden model was examined by applying the concept of borrowing landscape to representative deciduous broadleaf forests in the temperate northern region of Korea. Additionally, an integrated forest garden models based on the conceptual definition and typology of forest gardens, and a strategic approach to forest vegetation were proposed

Mine tailings, which are inevitably formed by the development of manganese nodules, manganese crusts, and hydrothermal seafloor deposits, have attracted attention because of their quantity and potential toxicity. However, there is a lack of data on the quantity of mine tailings being generated, their physicochemical properties, and their effects as environmental hazards and on marine ecosystems in general. The importance of treating mine tailings in an environmentally friendly manner has been recognized recently and related reduction/treatment methods are being considered. In the case of deep-sea mineral resource development, if mine tailings cannot be treated aboard a ship, the issue becomes one of the cost of transporting them to land and solving the problem of environmental pollution there. Therefore, the Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology conducted research on the harmfulness of mine tailings, their effect on marine ecosystem, the diffusion model of contaminated particles, and candidate purification treatment technologies based on five representative controlling factors: 1) effects of pollution /on the environment, 2) effects of environmental/ biological hazards, 3) diffusion of particles, 4) mineral dressings, and 5) reducing/processing mine tailings. The results of this study can provide a basis for minimizing environmental problems by providing scientific evidences of the environmental effects of mine tailings. In addition, it is also expected that these results could be applied to the treatment of pollutants of different origins and at land-based mining waste sites.

Since insects play important roles in existence of plants and other animals in the natural environment, they are considered as necessary biological resources from the perspectives of those biodiversity conservation and national utilization strategy. For the conservation and utilization of insect species, an observational learning environment is needed for non-experts such as citizens and students to take interest in insects in the natural ecosystem. The insect identification is a main factor for the observational learning. A current time-consuming search method by insect classification is inefficient because it needs much time for the non-experts who lack insect knowledge to identify insect species. To solve this problem, we proposed an smart phone-based insect identification inference system that helps the non-experts identify insect species from observational characteristics in the natural environment. This system is based on the similarity between the observational information by an observer and the biological insect characteristics. For this system, we classified the observational characteristics of insects into 27 elements according to order, family, and species, and proposed similarity indexes to search similar insects. In addition, we developed an insect identification inference prototype system to show this study's viability and performed comparison experimentation between our system and a general insect classification search method. As the results, we showed that our system is more effective in identifying insect species and it can be more efficient in search time.

In this study, a land-based marine closed mesocosm (LMCM) experiment was performed to objectively assess the initial stability of an artificial ecosystem experiment against biological and non-biological factors when evaluating ecosystem risk assessment. Changes in the CV (coefficient of value) amplitude were used as data to analyze the stability of the experimental system. The CV of the experimental variables in the LMCM groups (200, 400, 600, and 1,000 L) was maintained within the range of 20-30% for the abiotic variables in this study. However, the difference in CV amplitude in biological factors such as chlorophyll-a, phytoplankton, and zooplankton was high in the 600 L and 1,000 L LMCM groups. This result was interpreted as occurring due to the lack of control over biological variables at the beginning of the experiment. In addition, according to the ANOVA results, significant differences were found in biological contents such as COD (chemical oxygen demand), chlorophyll-a, phosphate, and zooplankton in the CV values between the LMCM groups(p<0.05). In this study, the stabilization of biological variables was necessary to to control and maintain the rate of changes in initial biological variables except for controllable water quality and nutrients. However, given the complexity of the eco-physiological activities of large-scale LMCMs and organisms in the experimental group, it was difficult to do. In conclusion, artificial ecosystem experiments as a scientific tool can distinguish biological and non-biological factors and compare and analyze clear endpoints. Therefore, it is deemed necessary to establish research objectives, select content that can maintain stability, and introduce standardized analysis techniques that can objectively interpret the experimental results.

하천과 바다가 만나는 하구는 자연적인 기능 뿐만 아니라 공학적인 측면에서도 매우 중요한 자원이다. 우리나라는 국토의 개발에 따른 용수 사용의 증가, 홍수재해대책 등으로 인해 한강을 제외한 4대강에 하구둑을 건설하였으며 강물과 바닷물을 인위적으로 차단하는 구조물이므로 하천의 생태적인 기능을 손상시키는 것은 불가피 하다. 하지만 이러한 단점에도 불구하고 하구둑이 건설되는 가장 큰 목적 중의 하나는 주변지역의 안정된 용수공급이다. 1987년에 완공된 낙동강 하구둑은 건설 이 후 약 20년 동안 안정된 용수공급과 효율적 운영으로 관리되어 왔지만 그동안 기상 및 수리 수문뿐만 아니라 환경적으로 크고 작은 변화가 있었다. 하천의 기수역인 하구에서 유체는 하구둑이라는 구조물이 존재하지 않을 때도 매우 복잡하게 거동한다. 하천의 유량, 지형학적 요소 그리고 조위의 상태 등 여러 가지 요인으로 인하여 비정상적으로 변화하며 이러한 하구에서 유체의 거동을 보다 더 정확하게 묘사하려면 흐름방향, 수심방향, 하폭방향의 3차원적인 해석이 필요하다. 하지만 하천과 바다를 밀도가 같은 하나의 상으로 가정하고 수행한 수문학적인 분석이나 1 2차원 수치모형을 활용한 수리 분석 결과는 시간적 공간적으로 경제적이고 양호한 결과를 산출해낼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강 하구둑의 수리특성을 분석하기 위하여 미국 기상청의 홍수추적모형인 FLDWAV 모형과 미수로국(WES)의 2차원 유한요소 모형인 RMA-2 모형을 활용하였으며 낙동강유역 주요 수위관측소의 실측자료를 토대로 매개변수 검정을 실시하였다. 분석결과 조위가 고려된 2차원 유속장을 구현하였으며 하구둑 유지 관리 개선에 기여코자 하였다.
