Following public expectations from the emergence of an international agreement with greater legal force after the expiration of the 2012 Kyoto Protocol, Korea is also making efforts to effectively and systematically initiate the mitigation policy and enforce the terms of the international climate change agreement. The majority of domestic industries are candidates for greenhouse gas emission regulation, thereby requiring the proposal of a method that effectively reduces environmental contaminate substances released from railway facilities, following the prediction of an increase in railway usage as an environment-friendly transportation method in the future. Accordingly, this study has quantitatively calculated the amount of released environmental contaminates through the life cycle assessment (LCA) on railway facility constructions, and has evaluated the environmental load and the amount of greenhouse gas emissions through the resulting values. The results of the LCA analysis showed that the amount of environmental load was the highest at the early stages of material implementation and construction, and that the value of global warming was viewed as the highest among the effects. As officially announced by the World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Environment Program that $CO_2$ is the main culprit of global warming, the analytical values confirmed that the amount of $CO_2$ emissions accounted for more than half of the released greenhouse gases at 2.90E+04tons. The environmental load and $CO_2$ emission rates analyzed in this study are judged to be used in the deduction of the optimum environment-friendly method and quantitative environmental effect of railway facility constructions in the future, as the values can be evaluated based on their degree of environment friendliness.

In this study, the influence of decentralized rainwater management over the changes in evapotranspiration was analyzed. The analysis method was obtained by establishing the decentralized rainwater management plan according to different scenarios, and subsequently examined evapotranspiration in the plan. Scenario 1 refers to the analysis of the existing situation, in which was 100% of a parking lot is asphalt pavement. In Scenario 2, the pavement of the parking surface in the parking lot is replaced with lawn blocks. In Scenario 3, some asphalt pavement was removed to establish a flower-bed type infiltration system to allow rainwater to permeate. In Scenario 4, infiltration and storage of rain water would be achieved by transforming the parking surface into lawn blocks, keeping the asphalt for the parking road while establishing a vegetation strip. The amount of evapotranspiration of the target site was analyzed with a water budget analysis program (CAT) using the 2001 meteorological data for each scenario According to the analysis values of S2 and S3, it was found that evapotranspiration is critically affected by the amount of area replaced with pervious area in the total target site. An energy equivalent to 680kWh is required for 1 ton of water to evaporate. Hence, it can be seen that the active inducement of evapotranspiration in urban area makes a positive contribution not only to heat island mitigation, but also to the small-scale water circulation process in a city.

With rapid modernization and industrialization, many urban areas are becoming overcrowded at a rapid pace and such urban ecological problems as heat island effect are becoming serious due to the reduced green zones resulted from the indiscriminate development. To solve this problem, ecological park, constructed wetlands, and greening on the elevation, balcony, and roof of a building that have the structure and function very close to the state of nature are currently being promoted at the urban or regional level. Especially green roof will be able to not only provide the center of a city with a significant portion of green area but also help to relive heat island effect and improve micro climate by preventing concrete of a building from absorbing heat. According to a recent study, the temperature of green roof in the summer season shows a lower temperature than the outdoor temperature, but inversely the concrete surface shows a higher temperature. Accordingly, this study measured the surface temperature of buildings with green roof in Daejeon area in order to determine how the green roof system would have an impact on the distribution of surface temperature and did a comparative analysis of the distribution of the surface temperature of green roof vs non-green roof based on these theoretical considerations. As a result, it was found that the surface temperature of green roof was lower by $4{\sim}7^{\circ}C$ than that of non-green roof. This is expected to contribute to the mitigation of urban heat island effects.

최근들어 발생하는 강우는 지금까지의 강우특성과 비교하여 여름철에 단기간 집중적으로 내리는 형태로 바뀌고 있다. 2011년 강원도 춘천지역에서는 이러한 집중강우로 인해 많은 산사태가 발생하였으며, 이로 인해 재산피해와 인명피해를 야기시켰다. 본 연구의 목적은 강우에 의한 산사태 물질의 이동에 대한 특성을 분석하기 위해서 현장 자료와 수치해석 자료를 활용하여 시간에 따른 특성의 변화 및 강우량에 따른 특성의 변화를 분석하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 항복응력 값의 변화를 통해서 강우량을 재현하였으며, 이를 통해서 어떠한 거동 특성을 보이는지 해석하였다. 그 결과 많은 강우에 의해 항복응력 값이 낮아지는 경우가 빠른 속도의 이동형태를 보이고 동시에 넓은 지역에 걸쳐 확산되는 특성을 확인하였으며, 이러한 결과는 현장에서 확인된 토석류의 흔적과 매우 유사하다는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해서 산사태 발생 당시의 토석류 최대 속도 및 최대 두께 등을 파악하는 것이 가능하다.

Climate change has caused changes in environmental factors that have a direct impact on agriculture such as temperature and precipitation. The meteorological disaster that has the greatest impact on agriculture is drought, and its forecasts are closely related to agricultural production and water supply. In the case of terrestrial data, the accuracy of the spatial map obtained by interpolating the each point data is lowered because it is based on the point observation. Therefore, acquisition of various meteorological data through satellite imagery can complement this terrestrial based drought monitoring. In this study, Evaporative Stress Index (ESI) was used as satellite data for drought determination. The ESI was developed by NASA and USDA, and is calculated through thermal observations of GOES satellites, MODIS, Landsat 5, 7 and 8. We will identify the difference between ESI and other satellite-based drought assessment indices (Vegetation Health Index, VHI, Leaf Area Index, LAI, Enhanced Vegetation Index, EVI), and use it to analyze the drought in South Korea, and examines the applicability of ESI as a new indicator of agricultural drought monitoring.

최근 해양환경법제도에 관한 정비작업이 활발하게 진행되고 있는바, 이는 "지속가능한 개발원칙"과 "사전예방주의 윈칙"을 "법(law)"의 형태로 내재화하고 "정책(policy)"으로 실현하기 위한 노력의 일환이라고 할 수 있다. 연안침식 방지, 기후변화 대책마련과 같이 해양환경에 관한 입법수요는 지속될 것으로 예상된다. 향후에는 해양환경 관련 법률의 법체계를 합리적으로 정비함으로써 법률간 연계성 및 정책의 효율성을 제고하는 것이 필요하다. 또한 해양환경을 효율적으로 보전하기 위해서는 법률과 정책의 정비와 함께 체계적인 연구와 조사가 지속적으로 이루어져야 한다.

Urban heat island (UHI) is one of the most important climatic implications of urbanization and thus a matter of key concern for environmentalists of the world in the twenty-first century. The relationship between climate and urbanization has been better understood with the introduction of thermal remote sensing. So, this study is an attempt to understand the influence of urbanization on local temperature for a small developing city. The study focuses on the investigation of intensity of atmospheric and surface urban heat island for a small urbanizing district of Punjab, India. Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS satellite data and field observations were used to examine the spatial pattern of surface and atmospheric UHI effect respectively, for the month of April, 2018. The satellite data has been used to cover the larger geographical area while field observations were taken for simultaneous and daily temperature measurements for different land use types. The significant influence of land use/land cover (LULC) patterns on UHI effect was analyzed using normalized built-up and vegetation indices (NDBI, NDVI) that were derived from remote sensing satellite data. The statistical analysis carried out for land surface temperature (LST) and LULC indicators displayed negative correlation for LST and NDVI while NDBI and LST exhibited positive correlation depicting attenuation in UHI effect by abundant vegetation. The comparison of remote sensing and in-situ observations were also carried out in the study. The research concluded in finding both nocturnal and daytime UHI effect based on diurnal air temperature observations. The study recommends the urgent need to explore and impose effective UHI mitigation measures for the sustainable urban growth.

본 논문은 순차적인 일국 CGE 모형을 구축하여 국가의 온실가스 저감정책과 연계한 물산업 지원 정책의 경제적 파급효과를 분석하였다. 모형은 물산업과 에너지 부문을 세분화하였으며, 온실가스 저감수단으로 탄소세를 도입하였다. 시나리오는 탄소세수를 가계에 이전하는 경우와 물산업에 지원되는 경우로 구축해 모의결과를 비교분석 하였다. 분석결과 물산업 지원 정책은 GDP 기준 약 0.1% 수준의 온실가스 저감 비용을 절감하고 소비와 투자를 확대하는데 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 물산업의 에너지 집약도가 높기 때문에 탄소세 부과로 인한 에너지 대체, 비에너지 집약적 산업구조 전환에의 기여도는 미미하였다. 따라서 온실가스 저감정책 하에서 물산업 발전을 위해 에너지 효율개선, 친환경 에너지 개발 및 활용 증진 등 비용효율적인 물산업 정책 추진이 중요할 것이다.
