The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the determinant factors of visitors' satisfaction and behavioral intentions to the Shincheon stream in Daegu city. It was found that ecology of the Shincheon stream, signals about ecology, and physical facilities positively influenced overall satisfaction. Physical facilities more positively influenced overall satisfaction. The overall satisfaction positively influenced behavioral intentions. For the future studies, it is necessary to do research visitors' satisfaction with more diverse factors of satisfaction and longitudinal studies about visitors' satisfaction based on seasonally different visitors.

In this study, the phylogenetic relationship of Korean Hydrangea was evaluated by using sequenced three chloroplast regions and ITS region, including the 7 taxa. The result of phylogenetic analysis indicated that Korean Hydrangea, 7 taxa formed the monophyletic group. This analysis also revealed that subsect. Macrophyllae of Korea was separated into two groups; H. serrata f. acuminate and H. macrophylla group. The H. serrata f. acuminta group was included with H. serrata f. buergeri and H. serrata f. fertilis. These three species form a monophyletic clade, with no significant differences between their nucleotide sequences. The H. serrata f. acuminta group showed a monophyletic group with H. serrata f. buergeri and H. serrata f. fertilis and there is significant differences between their nucleotide sequences. H. macrophylla group was an independent clade distinguished by H. serrate f. acuminate group. Subsect. Petalanthe, Heteromallae and Calyptranthae form a monophyletic group. H. petiolaris which is located in Subsect. Calyptranthae was separated into two subgroups; First subgroup: Jeju island (except for Mt. Halla) and Second subgroup: Ulleung island and Japan. Additional studies of two subgroups of H. petiolaris should be conducted a geographical study and add more samples.

Traditionally, economic growth has been uneven over the space. It has also been true for the recovery from social and economic crisis in old industrial areas of the advanced economies. Even if many of such old industrial areas were seriously affected by de-industrialization, some areas have been showing progress, while others have not been so. While interpreting this phenomenon used to be a key issue in economics, main stream liberal economic theorists' explanation was uneven distribution of economic resources, such as raw materials, labour and money. However, some revolutionary economic theorists have brought in the concept of "history" in explaining the phenomenon. Path dependence theorists, for example, interpretate the emergence of different growth paths with the concept of historical accidents. This contrasts to the recent argument of the group of scholars suggesting the concept of "regional resilience," who argue that uneven growth and different growth paths are originated from different regional resilience. This paper introduces the backgrounds, characteristics and utilities of the two theories: path dependence theory and the concept of regional resilience.

Ecotourism is widely known to be a sort of alternative tourism which seeks to keep balance between conservation and development. Successful ecotourism is not just dependent upon natural/cultural resources but also the consensus-building and collaboration among actors involved in the development of ecotourist attractions. In this sense, the establishment of good local governance can be crucial to achieve both conservation and development which are incompatible one another. Governance is carried out through self-organising, inter-organisational networks, which is emerging as new forms of collective decision-making at local level. Governance leads to the development of different relationships, not simply between public/ nonpublic agencies but between citizens and public/nonpublic agencies. I represent some key dimensions to construct good local governance in ecotourism: i) the creation of socio-institutional milieu that facilitate interactions among actors related to ecotourism; ii) actors involved in ecotourism taking responsibility to play an appropriate role in their own position. I argue that interactive relationships and consensus-building between different actors can be promoted by collective actions such as the sharing of information and resources, co-education and co-training, and seminars. It therefore implies that local good governance cannot be established without local social capital based on trust and cooperation between actors.

This research is undertook as a preliminary study for cultural and ecological environments of Daegu city which is required to improve urban image as the host city of 2011 World Championship in Athletics. The main findings of this research are as follows: Firstly, it is necessary to correct some errors in the natural scenery, such as Shincheon and Ibam which are known as important natural scenery of Daegu city. and also necessary to correct some errors in the name of places. Secondly, according to the old literature, it is known that there are two famous rocks in Daegu. Ibam, one of the two, is known as already disappeared. However, Hwaam, the other one, has been recently revealed as substantial. Therefore, the city needs to preserve the natural inheritance. In this sense, the city needs to consider to utilize natural scenery as cultural eco-tourism resources. Lastly, some part of landforms are related to culture and history. Thus, I proposes to name them as 'cultural landforms'.

Balanced regional development' is rehabilitated as contemporary national agenda by Roh government. The regional equity policies has been justified as insuring more 'even development opportunity'. It is required further examination that the intrinsic relationships between spatial equity and 'the participatory democracy' of the government. The participatory democracy was estimated an important method to achieve 'the alternative development' of the new social movement. But the rapid evolution of transportation and electronic nudes of communication technology strengthened spatial concentration, especially concentration of authoritative resources. These concentrations have a tendency of participation exclusion in the symbolic social practice such as ideological and political decision-making. In order to realize participatory democracy, It is not sufficient to decentralize administration authorities. The reallocation and upbringing policies of symbolic practices such as cultural industries and education facilities is very important.

This Study was Analysis about Habitat of Eurasian otter Lutra lutra L. In October 2002 during September 2003, Otter Spraints and Sprainting site were searched in river Unkog of North-Kyongsang Province for taking the GPS coordinates. For Analysis of habitat, This data were used by Arcview ver. 3.2 with 1/25000 Topology Map and Other Field data. The result of Habitat Analysis meant that Habitat use was strongly related to Fish diversity and richness also vegetation and cover were connected with otter habitat. In other hand, The Human interferences including dense structures like House acted as factor of disturbance. This study suggest that The preceding about Suitable habitat having free of Human disturbance, abundant fish and good vegetation is essential In Trial for Conservation or Recovery of Otter like Trans-location.

The Lorraine region of France is one of the regions in the core of Europe that suffered most from the decline of its traditional industries. Since the 1970s, various levels of governments have attempted to solve the economic and social problems originating from de-industrialization with policies of regional innovation, e.g., establishing technopole, the creation of the technology transfer network, the launch of the RTP project, and business incubators to promote start-ups, technology transfers, and networks between governments, businesses, universities, public research institutes, and the public. In this context, this paper attempts to analyse governance of regional innovation policies of the Lorraine region, based on an analytical framework developed by a groups of researchers, i.e.. Bae et at (2006). The paper concludes that the roles of governments are important in creating and implementing regional innovation policies of the Lorraine region; the policies heavily rely on the R&D capacity of universities and public research institutes; and various levels of governments have different roles to play.

There are islands about 3,200 in Korea surrounded by the sea side. The region of islands is the transition areas which are a border in the land and marine ecosystem. It is rich in biodiversity depending on the interaction among inland, sea and atmosphere. However, it is worried that damages of marine environment is increased because the more national income and demands ofmarine leisure increase, the more development projects are grown in marine areas. Also this trends are extending in island areas. Incheon Metropolitan city has huge island areas which are both inhabited and deserted islands. The range of island areas is very wide, so it is difficult for the city government to manage environment in the island areas. Therefore, this paper analyzed and discussed the actual conditions about managing marine environment at island areas.

갯대추(Paliurus ramosissimus (Lour.) Poiret)는 갈매나무과에 속하는 낙엽관목으로 드물게 교목으로 자라며, 우리나라에서는 제주도에만 분포하는 것으로 알려진 희귀식물이다. 이 종의 주요 분포대는 동아시아의 열대 및 아열대로 제주도는 위도 상 북한계로 알려져 환경부 지정 보호식물 제 39호로 지정\ulcorner보호하고 있으나 자생지에 대한 구체적인 조사가 이루어진 바 없다. 따라서 본 연구는 자생지의 현황과 생육상황을 파악하여 자생지 보전에 기여하고자 실시하였다. 갈매나무과는 세계적으로 58속 900여종이 분포하고, 갈매나무속(Genus Rhamnus), 헛개나무속(Genus Hovenia), 대추속(Genus Zyzyphus) 등이 주요 속으로 알려져 있으며, 그 중 갯대추속(Genus Paliurus)은 과실이 건과이고 날개가 있는 특징으로 다른 속과 구별된다. 꽃은 양성화로 7월~9월에 피고, 화서는 수 개의 꽃이 달리는 취산화서, 열매는 반구형으로 과병에 연한 갈색의 복모가 있으며 얕게 3부분으로 갈라져 각 실마다 편평한 공모양의 종자가 1개씩 들어있다. 갯대추 자생지는 제주도의 동부지역인 북제주군 구좌읍 김녕에 1개소, 남부지역인 남제주군 남원읍 태흥에 1개소, 서부지역인 북제주군 한경면 용당에 1개소, 한경면 용수에 1개소, 한경면 신창에 3개소 및 남제주군 대정읍 일과에 2개소 등 총 6지역 9개소였다. 분포지는 해발 20m이하의 해안가 토심이 얕은 암반 위였으며, 주로 해수의 영향을 직접적으로 받는 곳이었다. 생육상황을 조사한 결과 바다 쪽으로 갈수록 수고가 급격히 낮아지는 경향을 보였으며, 최소 0.3m, 최대 4.5m였고 평균 1.6m 정도였다. 수반종으로는 순비기나무와 갯기름나물, 갯까치수영 등 해안식생의 구성종이 대부분이었으며, 돌가시나무, 상동나무 등도 혼생하는 것으로 조사되었다. 자생지 위협요인으로는 양식장 시설, 도로개발, 해안매립 및 쓰레기 투기 등과 같은 인위적 간섭과 상동나무 등 주변식물의 피압이 주 요인이었다. 한편 갯대추는 희귀식물로서 뿐만 아니라 해류에 의해 전파되는 종으로 알려져 있어 제주도의 식물지리학적 연구에도 좋은 연구대상이 되고 있으므로 종 보전대책 및 자생지 보호에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.
