Pinass densiflora natural forests of four local forms in Korea were studies to investigate effective biomass estimation method. Dimension analysis was used and three allometric regression models, such as logWt=A+BlogD, logWt=$A+B1ogD^2H$ and 1ogWt=A+BlogD+ClogH were applied to estimate biomass, The most accurate estimation was made by the regression model of logWt=A+BlogD+ClogH where Wt is dry weight, D is diameter at breast height, and H is tree height. However, dry weights of cones and dead branches were remotely related to tree size factor, such as D and H. In the interest of practical use. generalized allometric regressions for all samples trees of four stands were computed and analysis of covariance was used to compare the allometric regressions among the four stands. Based on the test criteria applied in this study, significant differences were found in terms of error variance and regression intercept, not in terms of regression slope. These trends suggest a generalized biomass regression is not valid for accurate estimation over a range of four local form stands.

Location, height and clear-length of individual tree can be measured directly by LiDAR Remote Sensing, and dbh(diameter at breast height) can be estimated indirectly by tree height measured by LiDAR. In addition, stand volume and stand biomass are computed from estimated growth factors. In this study, each estimated growth factor was compared to the field measurements to validate accuracy. The coefficient of determination of total tree heights was 0.66 for total trees, 0.68 for Pinus koraiensis, 0.66 for Larix leptolepis and 0.60 for Quercus spp. The coefficient of determination of clear-length was 0.79 for total trees, 0.73 for Pinus koraiensis, 0.79 for Larix leptolepis, 0.68 for Quercus spp. The coefficient of determination of dbh predicted was 0.73 for Pinus koraiensis, 0.73 for Larix leptolepis and 0.85 for Quercus spp. Moreover The coefficient of determination of basal area was 0.82 for Pinus koraiensis, 0.92 for Larix leptolepis and 0.95 for Quercus spp. Biomass per ha computed by growth factor using LiDAR was 40,306 dm/ha for Pinus koraiensis, 94,150 tdm/ha for Larix leptolepis and 94,481 tdm/ha for Quercus spp. by species.

We studied on the effects of slurry composting and biofiltration liquid fertilizer (SCBLF) on growth of two-year-old poplar clones planted in a reclaimed land mounding soil. The soil on the experimental site had lower concentrations of both exchangeable cations and salinity than before reclamation. However, the content of organic matter was low compared with the most soils. We applied SCBLF to the poplars six times and 5 L in each time for 80 days. Ten clones of six poplar species or hybrids were tested in this study: Populus alba ${\times}$ P. glandulosa(Clivus, 72-30, 72-31, Bongwha1), P. deltoides ${\times}$ P. nigra(Dorskamp), P. deltoides(Lux) ${\times}$ P. deltoides(Harvard)(97-19), P. euramericana(Eco28, I-476), P. nigra ${\times}$ P. maximowiczii(62-2) and P. Koreana ${\times}$ P. nigra var. italica(Suwon). Growth performance varied more among clones than among species. Average height growth of treated plots was 18% greater than control, and clones Clivus, 97-19, Eco28 and Dorskamp were more vigorous than other clones. Diameter at breast height in treated plots was 41% greater than control, and 97-19, Dorskamp, Eco28 and Clivus were the four best clones in this respect. Mean leaf area of treated trees was 26% greater for control trees. Chlorophyll content was similar between treated and controlled trees. Total nitrogen values in leaves were much higher in treated trees 18%. SCBLF treatment on poplars planted in reclaimed land helped tree growth.

The objective of this study was to analyze the influences of forest management activity on the diameter distribution of Larix kaempferi Carriere stands in South Korea. We used 232 managed stands data, 47 unmanaged stands data of National Forest Inventory for this study. We employed the Weibull distribution function for estimating diameter based on percentiles and parameter recovery method. The results revealed that the average diameter breast height movements and growth of tree in the managed stands higher than the unmanaged stands according to the scenario: age, site index, and tree density change. The finding shows the percentage of the total amount of large class diameter was also high in the managed stands. The results of this study could be apply for the estimation of multi-products of timbers per diameter classes and stand structure development for Larix kaempferi Carriere stands in South Korea.

Voume functions, which are usually expressed by the function of dbh and height, are estimated commonly through the regression analysis with the highest statistical accuracy considered. In Korea, general volume functions for each tree species were prepared by means of the regression analysis with the exponential function ($V=aD^bH^c$) having the dbh(D) and height(H) as independent variables. In this study, regional stem curve functions for the Pinus densiflora in Kangwon-province were derived and a regional volume function model, in which the stem volume can be directly estimated through the rotational integral of the regional stem curve functions, was prepared. The regional volume estimated by the prepared model was more accurate than the volume by the general volume table for the Pinus densiflora in Kangwon-province. Additionary, the form of stem curves derived by the regional stem curve functions showed difference from each other. The stem in Youngwol and Wonju taper down more fast in upper part than that in other regions. These various stem forms also led to the regional difference in volume estimates.

남강댐은 평지에 위치하여 댐 높이가 낮고 댐운영 수위의 편차가 작기 때문에 계획홍수위 아래 완경사 비탈면이 갈수기인 3월부터 5월 사이에 장기간 노출되어 5월 전후에 발아하는 식생 특히, 버들류가 이입, 성장하여 대규모 군락을 이루고 있다. 현재 형성된 대규모의 버들류 군락은 댐수질을 악화시킬 뿐만 아니라 자기솎음질(self-thinning)에 의해 고사한 버들류의 유목으로 인하여 댐운영에 많은 애로를 초래하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 버들류 군락 형성과 댐운영수위와의 상관관계를 도출하여 버들류를 적절하게 제어할 수 있는 댐운영 방안을 마련하기 위한 기초자료로 활용하고자 하였다. 따라서, 버들류의 이입시점을 명확히 파악하기 위하여 현재의 남강댐 건설 직후인 1979년, 2003년 2010년의 항공사진과 수심측량에 의한 지형도를 이용하여 버들류 군락의 확장 경향을 분석하였다. 또한, 버들류의 이입시점을 명확히 파악하기 위하여 방형구를 설치하여 버들류의 밀도 및 흉고직경을 조사하고, 성장추에 의한 수령을 조사, 분석하였다. 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 남강댐 연안대에 분포하는 버들류는 총 17종이며, 출현빈도가 높은 종은 선버들(Salix nipponica), 버드나무(Salix nipponica), 왕버들(Salix gracilistyla), 등으로서 선버들(Salix nipponica)이 우점종인 것으로 조사되었다. 남강댐 연안대에 분포하는 버들류의 수령을 조사한 결과 수령은 약 9년~10년, 흉고직경 10~15cm, 수고 7~8m인 것으로 조사되었다. 댐운영수위와 버들류의 수령을 분석한 결과 2002년 5월 댐수위 38.5~41.0m 일 때 연안대의 수면부근에서 1단계로 이입, 정착한 것으로 보이며, 2004년 및 2005년 5월경에 댐수위 36m일 때 2단계로 이입, 정착하여 현재 대규모 군락을 형성한 것으로 추정된다. 남강댐 버들류 군락의 형성은 버들류의 발아기에 댐수위 부근의 습지에서 발아환경이 최적인 온도와 저토환경에서 일시에 이입, 성장한 것으로 보인다. 따라서, 남강댐과 같이 평야부에 위치한 댐에서 댐운영 및 댐수질에 영향을 미치는 버들류를 제어하기 위해서는 버들류의 발아기에 댐운영 수위를 최대한 높여 현재의 버들류 군락에 의하여 발아, 성장이 불가능하도록 하거나 아니면 댐운영 수위를 낮추어 발아해도 홍수기 동안 장기간의 침수에 의하여 고사되도록 하는 댐운영 방안을 마련해야 할 것이다.

In order to advance forest resource management, it is necessary to solve problems such as the aging of forest-related industry workers and the field investigation system centered on manpower. Therefore, in this study, the trend of establishment and utilization of overseas forest geospatial information applied with the latest technology for scientific forest resource management was investigated to identify the domestic application plan. Overseas, photogrammetry and LiDAR technologies were being used to construct and utilize forest geospatial information. In the case of photogrammetry, it was used to measure the volume of vegetation, diameter, and tree height. And LiDAR technology has been applied to the measurement of diameter, and tree height. Through the analysis of overseas cases, it was identified how to construct forest geospatial information using photogrammetry and LiDAR, and it was found that LiDAR showed higher accuracy than photogrammetry. In the future, if the construction of forest geospatial information using various LiDAR sensors are performed and the accuracy and work efficiency are analyzed, it will be possible to present the possibility of using new technologies in the construction of forest geospatial information in Korea.

Field investigations of forests are carried out by writing measured data by hand, and it is a hassle to reorganize the results after a field survey. In this study, a method using object modeling and augmented reality (AR) was applied in a test forest to increase the efficiency of a field investigations. Using a 3D laser scanner, data on were acquired 387 trees within an area of 1 ha at the study site. The coordinates, height, and diameter were calculated through object extraction and modeling of a tree. The proposed can reduce the time required to acquire data in the field and can be used as basic data for building related systems. In addition, the modeling results of trees and a survey using GNSS and AR techniques can be used check coordinates, labor, and attribute information, such as the chest height diameter of the trees being surveyed in the field. The shortcomings of the survey method could be improved. In the future, the method could greatly improve the efficiency of tree surveys and monitoring by reducing the manpower and time required for field surveys.

This study was carried out to select effective preventive pesticides against pine wilt disease caused by pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus on trunk injection. 1,000 fold aquatic solution of abamectin 1.8% EC and emamectin benzoate 2.15% EC were lower mortality (7.3% and 8.3% respectively) against PWN on 1 day after treatment. However effects of abamectin 1.8% EC, emamectin benzoate 2.15% EC, fosthiazate 30% SL and fenitrothion 30% SL were inhibited the reproduction of PWN over 99.6% in Botrytis cineria media. Effect of trunk injection of abamectin 1.8% EC and emamectin benzoate 2.15% EC at the rate of $10\;m{\ell}$ per 10 cm in diameter of breast height (DBH) on mortality of Japanese black pine, Pinus thungergii by inoculated PWN was 0% and 3.3%, respectively at the applied year however when injection of fosthiazate 30% SL were treated with the rate of $5\;m{\ell}$ per 10 cm tree DBH, mortality of tree was 63.3%. Abamectin 1.8% EC and emamectin benzoate 2.15% EC was showed high preventive efficacy representing >90% against PWN at the following year. PWN preventing efficacy of trunk injection was lower in naturally occurred area (mortality of pine tree in control was 11.7% at the first year) of PWN than artificially infected site (mortality of pine tree in control was >76.7% at the first year), PWN preventing efficacy of trunk injection of abamectin 1.8% EC and emamectin benzoate 2.15% EC at the rate of $10\;m{\ell}$ per 10 cm in DBH was 91.5% and 82.9%, respectively, at the applied year and 89.5% and 82.6% respectively at the following year in PWN naturally occurred site. Control efficacy by trunk injection of abamectin 1.8% EC and emamectin benzoate 2.15% EC was more higher in 10 fold dilution with 10 fold high amount of aquatic solution than no dilution with 10 fold less amount of aquatic solution. The preventive effect of trunk injection of abamectin 1.8% EC and emamectin benzoate 2.15% EC at the rate of $5\;m{\ell}$ per 10 cm in DBH was showed 100% at the applied year in PWN inoculated tree.
