The objective of this study was to search the attributes and calculate the weights among the attributes considered to choose the best thing of various tourism resources focused on marine ranch of Chagwido in Jeju region. Through this analysis, this research provides the information for establishing development plan of Chagwido. To achieve this goal, this study analyzed the priority of experience tourism through the experts' survey with AHP methodology. The result showed that ecological experience (30.6%), fishing activities (23.1%), release of fish seed (14.9%) and culture experience (14.9%) among various tourism resources in marin ranch of Chagwido were in order of importance. Thus ecological experiences, activities related to fishing facilities and programs should be introduced in order to develop the marine ranch of Chagwido.

With characteristics of river continuum, stream ecosystems have diverse components and environments from upstream channel to estuarine area. Therefore, the habitat requirements and composition of conservative object should be well understood before applying any improvement measure. In this paper, the causes of stream habitat changes were first illustrated with the categories and principles of habitat restoration methods. The structural restoration techniques of fish habitat improvement utilized by the authors or one three-year research project starting at 1990 were then presented. Through the introductions on the project background, planning guidelines, structure design, and ecological evaluation, this paper tried to provide some effective examples of stream restoration practices that ecological expert was invited for cooperation and advising.

지구온난화의 영향으로 가뭄의 발생 빈도가 전 세계 곳곳으로 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 가뭄이란 강수량 혹은 가용 수자원 등이 평균적인 수준에 비해 지속해서 적게 유지되는 현상으로 다양한 분야(기상, 농업, 사회, 경제 등)에 피해를 발생시킨다. 가뭄이 지속되면 인간 사회 뿐만 아니라 동·식물이 서식하고 있는 생태계에도 영향을 미치게 된다. 우리나라에서도 2000년대 이후 주기적으로 발생한 가뭄으로 인해 가뭄 현상을 모니터링하고 예측, 전망하기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있으나 아직까지 환경생태가뭄에 대한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 가뭄으로 인해 환경생태계에 미치는 영향 중 수생태계에 초점을 맞춰 진행하였으며, 수생태계에 서식하는 동·식물 중 어류만을 대상으로 하였다. 생태가뭄을 빠르고 쉽게 예측하기 위해 Ecological Nomograph를 개발하여 가뭄에 따른 수생태계에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서 나온 결과를 바탕으로 환경가뭄을 감시하고 대응하기 위한 분석 방법으로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Comprehensive assessment of ecological riparian zone is to analyze and evaluate the status of riparian zone ecosystem. The existing problem of the ecosystem can be found through the assessment. The AHP-FUZZY method used in the assessment is based on the hierarchy model of index, grade model of object, and attribution degree of index. Accordingly, the four models have been discussed and presented from the aspect of the stability, landscape, eco-health and eco-safety of riparian zone.

This paper aims to estimate the effects of environmental variables on volunteering among older persons and decide relationships between independent and dependent variables. The thesis conceptually points out that the integrated theory of resources too much emphasizes the important roles of human, social and cultural capital, but overlooks the influences of ecological environments in explaining volunteering among the older persons. And the thesis tries to apply the general ecological theory of aging to explaining volunteering of older people together with resource frameworks, and to estimate the effects of ecological environment variables on volunteerism for senior citizens. Using a micro data of 2009 National Social Survey by Statistics Korea, the paper screens out 10,268 subjects who are believed to socially retire and be above 55 years older. The multiple OLS regression and binomial logistic regression techniques are used to estimate the effects of ecological environments and resources on volunteering. The analysis results show that all of environmental and resource variables are related to volunteering at the level of p<.000. This means that environmental variables have independent effects on the volunteerism, controlling for resource variables. This results suggest that both theories have empirical evidences in explaining volunteerism in Korea. Also, at the end of paper, theoretical and policy implications for practices and future studies are discussed.

Social demand for ecological engineering and technology has increased in tandem with national economic growth in order to improve the environmental capacity of civil infrastructures. To meet this demand, the Korean Society of Ecology and Infrastructure Engineering (KSEIE) was established in January 2013 and has contributed to the development of ecological engineering technologies. However, the establishment of an educational system for human resources training in ecological engineering is still at an early stage, and it is imperative to develop a curriculum for producing the human resources that can understand and apply ecological principles and functions and that is equipped with the abilities required for ecological conservation, restoration, and creation. As part effort, the KSEIE held a forum, entitled Founding the Education for Ecological Engineering, to discuss the establishment of the education system for ecological engineering in Korea. In this paper, based on the discussions and suggestions made during the forum, we analyzed the current status of ecological engineering education in various disciplines - civil and construction engineering, biology and environment, and landscape planning - in domestic universities, and attempted to seek possible solutions based on the cases of foreign universities. Generally, ecology and other application curricula are taught as fragmented subjects and fields in domestic universities. The development of new education strategies and systematic curricula for multidisciplinary education, ecological response to climate change, and the expansion of research fields is required.

The purpose of this study was to investigate and suggesting plans for the Gonggeumji rice paddy wetland ecotourism with ecological, cultural and historical resources. Compare to previous other ecotourism resources including insects, birds and other ecological resources, this study used rice paddy wetland as ecotourism resources. The wetland ecotourism could be more promoted with networking of resources, historical experiences of Goryung Gaya Kingdom, leisure sports tourism with bicycling, the residents'cultural resources including traditional folk song village experiences.

The Mount Juwang was designated as a national park in 1976 because of its unique bedrock geology. Although Juwang National Park has maintained its natural ecosystem well, few macrofungal surveys have been carried out. As a part of a project supported by the National Institute of Biological Resources (NIBR) for the discovery of indigenous fungal species, we surveyed the mushrooms in Juwang National Park from 2018 to 2019. The macrofungi were identified based on morphological and molecular analyses. Among these fungi, five specimens were identified as species previously unrecorded in Korea: Calocybe decolorata, Crepidotus brunnescens, Mycena pearsoniana, Psathyrella phegophila, and P. sulcatotuberculosa. Three of these species are known to be rare in the world: Crepidotus brunnescens, P. phegophila, and P. sulcatotuberculosa. In this study, we provide detailed morphological descriptions of the five unrecorded species from Mt. Juwang in Korea.
