본 연구는 수도권 지역의 아까시나무림을 중심으로 식물군집의 식생구조적 특성을 분석함으로써 향후, 도시녹지의 자연성 복원을 위한 기초 자료로 제시하고자 하였다. 조사지역은 서울도심지역으로 중구 남산과 서대문구 안산, 서울외곽지역으로 은평구 봉산과 부천시, 성주산, 비도시지역으로 경기도 천마산을 선정하였다. 주요 연구분야는 생태적 특성과 복원모델로 구분하였가. 생태적 특성평가는 천이단계, 자연성 및 다층적 식생구조와 종다양성을 실시하였으며, 복원모델은 적정수종, 개체수, 흉고단면적, 수목간 최단거리를 선정하였다. 조사결과, 복원모델은 비도시지역 중 자연성이 높으며 다층구조를 이루고 있는 자생식물군집을 선정하였으며 적정식물은 교목성장 3종, 아교목성정 7종, 관목성장 16종, 주연부 수종 4종 초본식물 27종이 적절한 것으로 판단되었다. 향후, 아끼시나무림읜 자연성 복원을 위해서 자연림인 참나무류로의 천이를 유도할 수 있도록 자생종 중심의 생태적 복원방안의 모색이 이루어져할 것이다.

The objective of the study is to examine the perception of the residents in the Civilian Control Zone (CCZ) and the competent local government officials for nature conservation and local development. A survey was conducted on 265 residents as well as 285 government officials from Paju and Yeoncheon Municipals. Both residents and officials perceived the value of biodiversity, natural ecosystem and landscape in the CCZ and seemed to have a sense of pride regarding it. However, they conceived that nature has not been conserved properly and residents in Yeoncheon showed more concern on this matter than residents in Paju. Overall, residents were more devoted to nature conservation or perceived the importance of accordance with nature conservation in local development, which implicates the sound foundation of perception and good prospect for sustainable development in CCZ. Owing to the difference in situation, there was a significant difference in perception between residents and officials. There is a possibility of conflict in Paju because residents desired more local development, whereas officials showed more purpose for nature conservation. In order to achieve simultaneously local development and nature conservation in CCZ, we should pay special attention to studies on living standards of local residents and scientific surveys on natural resources.

The paradigm of the use and management of natural resources is changing. Wise use of natural resources can be achieved by enhancing their conservation value and, at the same time, taking them as an opportunity for regional development. It leads to an idea of pursuing regional development by making good use of natural resources. In this paper, natural resources were classified as living species resources, ecosystem and landscape resources, and non-living resources. The resources were divided into 27 detailed analysis indices. The administrative boundaries of 165 municipalities in Korea were defined as spatial analysis units. Finally, a spatial database of natural resources was built. To classify the regional types, we conducted factor analyses with a detailed index of natural resources and a cluster analysis with the factor value. As the result of the factor analysis, six factors have been deduced as follows: forest resources, landscape resources, coastal ecology resources, inland water resources, landform resources, and ecology visit resources. In addition, the cluster analyses were conducted for the points of the factors drawn. The final classification consists of nine groups, and appropriate methods for each regional development have been suggested. Results of this study will contribute to providing fundamental materials for site selection and objective-setting for regional development policies and planning in consideration of natural resources.

This paper classifies cities in the metropolitan area based on natural hazard vulnerability. The procedure of our empirical analysis is divided into three parts as follows: First, it summarizes variables related to natural hazard vulnerability to significant factors, carrying out principal component analysis. Second, it classifies cities in the metropolitan area, conducting cluster analysis using factor scores. Lastly, it proposes differential measures for natural hazard mitigation for classified cities in the metropolitan area, based on natural hazard vulnerability.

Based on major safety-related statistics of cities, provinces, counties, and districts across the country, social disasters manage regional safety index ratings in six areas(traffic accidents, fires, crime, life safety, suicide, and infectious diseases), and natural disasters operate a management system. The current application of the regional safety assessment of natural disasters is very insufficient to evaluate the local risk of natural disasters up to the Eup, Myeon, and Dong level, and it is marked too engineering and difficult for the general public to use. The purpose of this study is to present Korea's natural disaster local risk assessment as an improvement model that extends to the sub-unit of Eup, Myeon, and Dong, using the local risk assessment model mixed with natural and social disasters.

자연재해위험지구란 자연재해로부터 안전하지 못하여 국민의 생명과 재산에 피해를 줄 수 있는 지역과 자연재해의 피해를 저감할 수 있는 시설을 포함한 주변지역으로서 자연재해대책법 제12조의 규정에 의하여 지정된 지구를 말한다. 자연재해대책법에 따라 시장 군수 구청장은 상습침수지역 산사태위험지역 등 지형적인 여건 등으로 인하여 재해가 발생할 우려가 있는 지역에 대하여는 자연재해위험지구로 지정 고시한다. 2010년에 특별 재고시 되어진 재해위험지구 지정현황을 비롯하여 최근 지정해제 등 변경사항을 고려하여 총 683개(2011년 현재)의 지구를 대상으로 조사한 결과, 침수위험지구는 401개(전체의 59%), 붕괴위험지구는 128개(전체의 19%), 유실위험지구는 98개(전체의 14%), 취약방재위험지구는 28개(전체의 4%), 고립위험지구는 18개(전체의 3%), 해일위험지구는 10개(전체의 1%)로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서는 2010년 특별 재고시된 자연재해위험지구(침수위험지구)의 2011년도 현황을 바탕으로 기 지정된 재해위험지구에 대한 대규모 하천정비 및 기후변화에 따른 침수위험의 변화영향을 검토하였다. 이는 대규모 하천정비 및 기후변화에 따른 기존의 침수영향변화를 복합적으로 검토하여 한강, 낙동강, 금강, 영산강 수계 자연재해위험지구(침수위험지구)의 복합 영향의 범위를 분석하였다.

International society has been making a lively discussion about natural disaster by climate change to mitigate natural hazard centering around intra-government association. This study dealt with a strategic mitigation and technical adaptation to support a habitual natural disaster region such as Bangladesh in terms of international cooperation for assistance to protect against the natural hazard. The land-cover on scale of one third of Bangladesh is situated lower than sea level that causes habitual flooding accident which gets increasing in the strengthen every single year. Most of people lives around exterior sea coast being faced with disaster of abnormal storm forming every three year cycle. Especially, the socio-economic status of the people in the coast is usually very low, and it need to get help from international cooperation aid. Therefor, the case study for the vulnerability of natural disaster in Bangladesh on geographical analysis is meaningful to join the international cooperation taking a part of role on technical support and education for adaptation of the natural disaster.

The status of eco-environments of Goryeong is evaluated from the results of National Ecosystem Survey. The areas, designated by the 1st class, are only 0.16% of total areas of Goryeong. Most of them are the regions which vegetation preservation status is well. Location of the 1st class region is mostly distributed around the summit and ridges of high mountains. The naturalness of Goryeong region is excellent, thus the status of eco-environments of Goryeong will be rapidly improved.

The purpose of this study was to explore visitors' experiences based on two different types of ecological sites: natural and artificial ecological sites. Specifically, this study aimed to analyze the differences in the perceived experiences and satisfaction according to the perception of the visitors to the ecological sites. First, the analysis of measurement factors of visitor experience perception identified four factors such as ecological experience, environment friendliness, sociality, and relaxation. The comparison of perception according to the factor of visitor experience showed that there were significant differences between natural and artificial ecological sites and that the perceived visitor experience was generally higher in the natural ecological sites. The result of the analysis of the influence of the perceived visitor experience to ecological sites on visitor experience showed the relaxation had the largest influence for both natural and artificial ecological sites. The ecological experience and environmental friendliness also had a significant impact on visitor satisfaction in the natural ecological sites and artificial ecological sites, respectively. This paper also discussed the implications for planning and management issues at ecological sites.
