As the number of National and UNESCO Global Geoparks has increased, awareness of geological heritage and local government interests have also increased. In this study, data from the geological heritage sites in the Ulsan area were summarized, a practical use plan for geological heritage was prepared based on the assessment results, and the expected effects were also presented. The value for 33 of 112 geological heritage sites identified through literature surveys was evaluated. In terms of the geological heritage types in Ulsan, there were two geological, one geomorphological, and thirty mixed-heritage sites. In the context of the geological heritage of Ulsan, rivers and coastal topography were found to be dominant, and various geomorphological and geological features, such as fossils, folds, faults, shear zones, minerals, and ore deposits are included. Based on the assessment results, there were three, eighteen, nine, and three sites in Classes I, II, III, and IV, respectively. Considering the intrinsic and subsidiary values of geological heritage, the Gangdong Coast, Jujeon Coast, Taehwagang area, Daewangam area, the Daegokri-Cheonjeonri track sites, and Mujechineup are likely to be listed as potential geosites. When the endorsement of the geopark has been promoted alongside these geosites, it can contribute to the sustainable preservation and maintenance of the geosites, satisfy the demand for science education through geo-education, and support the sustainable development of the local economy following the detailed standards for geopark certification in the Natural Parks Act. This is expected to increase the brand value of Ulsan Metropolitan City.

The purpose of this study was to investigate essential information about the geological and geomorphological characteristics of the Odaesan landscape, in order to efficiently preserve and develop resources selected from among that are highly valuable scholastically and esthetically. A total of 147 geological and geomorphological landscape resources were studied during the course of this study. Landscape type mostly discovered was the tectonic topography, followed by the topographies of weathering, river, mountain, lacustrine, and periglacier, respectively in decreasing order. Among the varieties of geological and geomorphological landscape resources, 4 outcrops were utilized as tourist resources and 5 outcrops were considered as valuable sites for scientific research. Geological and geomorphological landscape resources for academic research were considered to have practical uses such as geological and geomorphological fieldwork for students and thematic geotourism courses for the public.

Since restoration of damaged geomorphological sites is almost impossible, it is necessary, to select and conserve geomorphological heritages in a preemptive action. Algific (=producing cold) sites are one of the natural resources which have not been protected well due to the lack of understanding of their value, despite their conservation importance. This research aimed to help people to recognize such geosites' actual value and make them understand the necessity of protecting these sites. Algific areas are valuable by the simple fact that it is a mysterious phenomenon in which the ice forming may happen even in the mid-summer and the environment is always cool. Algific sites deserve geomorphological research in the sense that topographic condition called talus causes this phenomenon. They are also valuable in plant geographic sense because northern rare plants survive isolatedly due to low-temperature environment of these sites. Their cultural-historical value is also high by the fact that they have been connected closely with local residents' lives shown by its nicknames, "natural refrigerator" or "natural air conditioner".

최근 환경에 대한 관심이 증대하면서 생물다양성, 홍수조절, 온실가스 저감 등 다양한 기능을 수행하는 습지에 대한 보전 및 복원을 위한 많은 노력들이 진행되고 있다. 습지 보전 및 복원을 위한 다양한 방안 중 하나가 댐 및 주변지역을 습지로 조성하여 활용하는 방안이라고 할 수 있으며, 이를 위해서는 댐 및 주변지역의 습지로서의 활용을 위한 특성 파악이 우선적으로 이루어져야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 댐 주변지역에 조성된 습지와 댐 저수지 자체를 모두 포함하여 댐습지라고 정의하고, 댐습지가 지니고 있는 습지의 기능 및 경제적 가치를 추정하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 대상지역은 기준습지와 대상습지로 구분되며, 기준습지는 우포늪과 보령댐, 대상습지는 용담댐이다. 댐습지의 기능평가는 수문지형학적 특성을 고려하는 HGM(Hydrogeomorphic Method)을 이용하였으며, 가치평가는 조건부가치측정법(CVM)을 이용하였다. 기능평가 결과는 우포늪과 보령댐을 각각 기준지역으로 선정하였을 경우로 구분하여 나타낼 수 있다. 자연습지인 우포늪을 기준지역으로 선정하였을 경우에는 댐의 주목적과 관련이 있는 수문학적 기능이 높게 평가되었으나 습지 내에서 진행되는 생지화학적 기능과 다양한 식물 종에 대한 서식처로써의 기능은 다소 미흡한 것으로 평가되었다. 보령댐을 기준지역을 선정하였을 경우에는 일부 기능을 제외하고 대부분의 기능이 유사한 것으로 평가되었다. 조건부가치측정법을 이용한 용담댐의 경제적 가치평가는 댐습지 생태공원조성에 따른 훼손된 습지의 보호, 희귀생물종의 보호, 휴양 및 여가기능 제공을 주요인으로 설정하고 설문조사를 수행하여 가치를 추정하였다. 그 결과 용담댐의 총 가치는 우포늪의 가치와 비교하였을 때 우포늪의 35~41%에 해당하는 것으로 추정되었다. 본 연구에서 수행된 댐습지의 기능 및 가치평가 결과는 댐이 단순히 이 치수 측면으로만 이용되는 것이 아니라 생태학적으로도 활용성이 있다는 사실을 나타내고 있다. 이를 통해서 향후 댐의 친환경적 활용 방안 및 댐습지 관리 방안에 중요한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 댐에 대한 긍정적인 인식 증진에도 많은 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

Recently planification and effort for management, assessment and discovery of geological heritagesare being increasingly demanded with institutional strategies such as geopark, as their preservation is asked socially. In this study, we discovered geological heritages in the Jeolla Province and then performed assessment of the value and grading of them and finally suggested a promising and suitable site for the National Geopark. A total of 325 geological heritages are listed on literature review and then detailed description in field and assessment of the value for selected 158 geoheritages are completed. The assessment items are categorized into intrinsic value, subsidiary value, and preservation/management part. The intrinsic value is subdivided into scientific/educational value, composed of representativeness, rarity, geodiversity, typicality, reproducibility, and particularity, and geomorphological/landscape value composed of scale, naturality (integrity), scenery (aesthetic value). Also, subsidiary value consist of 7 subsections of soil function, ecological function, tourism value, geological resource, historical value, folk tale or legend and symbolic value, and accessibility, convenient facility (infrastructure), management condition (legal protection) is evaluated in preservation/management part. The heritages in the Jeolla Province subdivided into three types: 73 geological heritages, 42 geomorphological heritages, and 42 composite heritages. Based on points acquired in intrinsic value, all geological heritages are graded Class-I to -V. As a result, numbers of geoheritage belong to Class-I (protection at world level), -II (protection at national level), -III (nationdesignated management), -IV (involved management list), -V (candidate management list) are 12, 39, 52, 34, 21, respectively. Finally, we construct database based on Arc-GIS with all informations for each geological heritage and suggest three promising and suitable sites, 'Jirisan-Seomjingang Area' and 'south coast area of Jeolla Province', for the National Geopark.

There exist plenty of geomorphological resources in Haean Basin, Yonghwasan Mt., and Gandong Basin in Eastern DMZ area in Gangwon Province which can be used as geotourism resources. Meticulous strategies are necessary to improve the geotourism bases in such a mountainous region. Potential geosites including Yongneup and Simjeog wetlands are nearby, so it is necessary to include these geosites when planning geotourism courses. The values of these sites coinciding with the goal of geopark are as follows: this region shows contrasting landforms derived from distinctive rocks such as gneiss and biotite granite, and there are many landforms derived from differential weathering of granite too. They can be used to explain the developmental history of numerous basin structures in entire Korean peninsula.

Plan and management for Ecological Abandoned Mine Lands (AMLs) reuse using Geographic Information System (GIS) technique are an ideal method. GIS technique display, manage and analyze a spatially referenced data, which can be combined in user-defined ways to make plan and decision about AMLs reuse. Local communities are affected by AMLs. In the past, plan and management of AMLs have never been considered for ecological aspects as well as using GIS. However, the rapidly growing GIS technology have proven to be a valuable tool in the process of understanding environment and of making responsible environmental decisions. This paper suggests that making responsible decision and plan using GIS can create a various types of benefits to local communities. This also shows that GIS may play a vital role at the decision/planning process of analysis and exploration of local environmental situation. We are trying to apply to decision support system for AMLs reuse. Moreover, a lot of thematic maps are making using GIS providing a comprehensive data with images. These can be an ideal platform to deliver meaningful outcomes.

Yeonpyeong Island, an island of Ong-jin County, is a very important and meaningful area in terms of its geo-politics and natural environment. But in spite of well preserved natural environment, because of limited access and security risk, there were little researches. In this sense this study would be meaningful for inquiring into the regional geomorphology of Yeon-pyeong Island. The major findings of this study are as follows. 1) 12 sites among 20 sites was evaluated 1st grade, and this means that geomorphic value of Yeon-pyeong Island is very excellent. 2) Coastal landforms of Yeon-pyeong Island are classified three major types which are rocky coast which consist of wave-cut platform and sea cliffs, sand or shingle beaches and coastal plain in the embayment area, and tidal flat areas and small uninhabited islands. 3) Cross sectional shape of Yeon-pyeong Island is asymmetric, since coastal erosion of island concentrate on the northern and western shore. 4) Quality and value of tidal flats will be deteriorate unless the dyke construction is stopped.
