  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the citizens' perception of urban ecosystem and urban ecosystem education to find out how to plan and create an effective urban ecosystem and how to utilize urban ecosystem education and educational media according to age groups. To this end, an online survey of 416 Suwon citizens was conducted, and based on the responses of the respondents, cross-analysis, multiple-response analysis, and correlation analysis were conducted using the IBM SPSS Statistics Statistical Program. The study found that fewer respondents showed a high understanding of urban ecosystem concepts compared to those who recognized the importance of environmental issues. Nevertheless, most of the respondents were aware of the importance of preserving and protecting the urban ecosystem and responded positively to the inconvenience. In addition, most of the respondents were aware of the need for urban ecosystem education and were found to have different preferred information media depending on age. It has been confirmed that the establishment of facilities such as ecological learning centers and seasonal environmental schools is the top priority among all age groups. Citizens are also aware of the importance of preserving and protecting the urban ecosystem and the need for education, but it is deemed necessary to supplement it because effective urban ecosystem conservation and protection plans and systematic education are not provided that citizens can sympathize with. In addition, it is deemed that various measures should be presented in selecting responsible organizations and educational media that host the education for effective education and promotion of urban ecosystem education according to conduct urban ecosystem education.

  • Ecological approach to conservation of Korea's National Parks (KNP) was reviewed. Four hundred twenty five reports on 15 national parks for 80 years (1915~1994) were analyzed in consideration of phytocoenotic information such as flora, plant community and landscape. Total species was recorded as 157 familles, 752 genera, and 2,369 species (64.3% of Korean flora), in which is included only 75 species of the protected plant species designated by the Ministry of EnvironMent. Occurrence patterns of plant species in national parks were quite similar to one another, but those of plant community were rather unique. Seventy-four of 97 plant communities were reported in only one of 15 national parks, which might be regarded as an endemic or local vegetetation type. These facts are far different from actual status of the KNP's ecosystem, which indicate that not only original data in previous reports are less informative, but also tools of investigation and description are too subjective, and thus these can never afford to monitor the ecosystem. From the correlation analysis between 10 ecological characteristics, the following results were obtained: (1) the species richness was positively associated with the area of national park, (2) the number of visitors was related to landscape diversity, (3) occurrence of the designated species was closely related to the vegetation diversity. Numerical analysis (cluster analysis and ordination) using dissimilarity ratio by ecological characteristics divided 15 national parks into 4 groups. The first group, composed of national parks of Chirisan, $S\v{o}laksan$, Sokrisan, Hallasan, $T\v{o}kyusan$, Odaesan, and Sobaeksan, is recognized as the best national parks in terms of ecological conservation values. Nevertheless, they have been faced with the threat of visitor stress. This study will contribute to the establishment of strategy for appropriate conservation and sustainable use of KNP.

  • This study aims to establish the national strategy for biodiversity conservation by analyzing the current status of ecodiversity as the foundation of biodiversity conservation. Furthermore, this study has another purpose of preparing the measures for conservation and restoration of biodiversity. Ecodiversity was discussed as the basis for conserving biodiversity. Five climate zones and 14 climatic regions, eight plant geographic regions, three massifs and major geologic series, horizontal and vertical topographic conditions, 16 ecoregions, major ecosystems including forest, river and streams, wetlands, coast and marine, agriculture, and urban esosystems, and land use types were discussed as the element of the ecodiversity. In terms of biodiversity conservation, the actual conditions of each ecological unit were reviewed and measures were proposed to reduce biodiversity loss. Destruction and fragmentation of habitat, poor ecosystem management due to socioeconomic changes, the effects of exotic species and chemicals, and climate change were discussed as the major factors causing biodiversity loss. Systematic monitoring based on scientific principles and ecological restoration based on those monitoring results were recommended as measures for biodiversity conservation.

  • 국가 생물다양성 전략에 따른 보호지역의 확대는 생물다양성 보전에 기여하는 반면에 지역주민들에게 다양한 경제적 피해를 발생시킨다. 이에 보호지역 지정으로 인한 지역주민의 피해를 보상할 수 있는 지속가능한 방안으로서 생태계서비스지불제의 필요성이 제기되었다. 이 연구에서는 보호지역의 확대를 통한 생물다양성 보전으로부터 국민들이 얻는 편익을 추정하여 생태계서비스지불제의 시행가능성을 검토하기 위해 지리산 방문객을 대상으로 CVM을 이용하여 지리산의 생물다양성 보전에 대한 지불의사액을 추정하였다. 방문객들은 생태경관보전지역을 확대하여 지리산의 생물다양성을 증진시키는 데 연간 가구당 16,103원의 지불의사가 있는 것으로 나타났고, 이를 전체 가구로 확대한 지리산 생물다양성의 총 보전가치는 연간 3,168억 원으로 추정되었다. 방문객들은 연령, 교육수준, 가구소득이 높을수록, 지리산이 생태경관보전지역으로 지정되어 있다는 사실을 사전에 인지한 경우, 생물다양성 보전 정책이 중요하다고 생각할수록 생물다양성 보전에 대한 지불의사가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 생태계서비스지불제의 시행가능성을 높이기 위해서는 생물다양성 교육과 정책 홍보를 통해 국민들의 생물다양성에 대한 지식과 인식을 높이는 것이 필요하다.

  • 본 연구는 제3차 자연환경보전기본계획이 규정한 생태계서비스 활성화를 지원할 목적으로 수행되었다. 그동안 우리는 자연생태계가 인류에게 제공하는 편익, 즉 생태계서비스(자연혜택)를 무상으로 향유할 수 있는 재화로 간주하였으나 도시의 팽창과 개발의 가속화로 인한 자연환경용량이 침해되면서 서비스 기능이 저하되자 이를 인위적으로 복원 증진시키려는 노력들이 경주되었다. 생태계서비스를 제공하는 자연자본을 지속가능하게 유지하고 보전하기 위해서는 소유자가 자연자본을 유지 보전하기 위해 감수해야 하는 기회비용의 보전이 필요하다. 따라서 생태계서비스를 누리는 소비자(수요자)들이 이 서비스를 공급하는 토지소유자 관리자나 지역주민들과 자연자원으로부터 비롯하는 혜택을 공유하고 이러한 공유를 환경보전과 연동시키는 체계 즉, 생태계서비스 가치의 제도화가 필요하다. 그러나 문제는 현행 환경법제가 생태계서비스 공급자와 수요자 사이의 공정한 거래와 수요자들 사이의 공평한 향유를 실현시키지 못한다는 것이다. 생태계서비스를 규율하는 현행 법제가 안고 있는 또 하나의 문제점은 개발계획에서 생태계서비스의 가치가 적정하게 반영되지 못한다는 것이다. 분석 결과, 현행 법제에서는 충분하지는 않지만, 정부 부문과 민간 부문에서 생태계서비스 가치의 제도화가 나름대로 가능하다. 특히 계약에 의한 서비스 거래는 개발계획과 관계없이 운용될 수도 있다. 생태계서비스 가치의 제도화에서 남은 과제는 개발계획과 관련하여 어떠한 절차에 따라 서비스 가치를 계량화할 것인가의 여부이다. 이러한 한계를 극복하자면, 환경영향평가 절차에서 개발로 인한 생태계서비스의 변화가 구체적으로 평가될 수 있어야 한다. 환경영향평가법이 아닌 시행령의 개정을 통하여서도 생태계서비스 평가와 환경영향평가의 통합이 가능하다.

  • This study was surveyed from May to October, 2008 in order to classify type distribution and evaluate the function of inland wetland as a ecological axis in Chungnam province. Assessment was done by modified-RAM (Rapid Assessment Method). RAM is consisted of total 8 functions and divided into high, moderate, low. The conservation grade of RAM is divided into 4 grades; absolute conservation, conservation, improvement and restoration. Throughout survey on total 13 wetlands of Lacustrine, Palustrine wetland which are distributed in Chungnam province, their function was assessed. As result, the 2 wetlands were judged as absolute conservation grade by assessment of 8 functional contents, and 7 sites were improvement wetlands and 4 sites were conservation wetlands. The function of wetlands assessed as conservation grade showed high in water quality protection and improvement. Also, showed high in vegetation diversity, wildlife habitat and aesthetic recreation. Meanwhile, showed low in Water quality purification, Shoreline/Stream Bank Protection. Of wetlands evaluated as conservation grade, Jeong-juk Ji and Dun-ri reservoir were assessed as absolute conservative area. These wetlands are essential to be managed continuously as a area having high ecological value. Farther, these wetlands will be done as a axis of ecological network related to 'Kumbuk jeongmaek' ecosystem.

  • This study was carried out to propose the functional assessment and a wise use strategy on the ecologically valuable 'village wetlands' distributed in living area in Geumsan gun, Chungnam province, Korea. The targets of the functional evaluation were 24 wetlands, selected from 123 village wetlands, where villages and agricultural lands or core ecosystems are located within living area near the wetland and wetlands with historical and cultural significance. The functional evaluation was carried out by RAM (Rapid Assessment Model) and the conservation strategies were suggested. As a result of the functional evaluation, 9 wetlands were rated 'high' (2 'absolute conservation' and 7 'conservation' strategies), 14 wetlands were rated 'medium' ('enhancement' strategies), and one wetland was rated 'low' ('restore or enhancement' strategy). In consideration of the results of the functional evaluation, interviews with village residents, and historic meaning, 6 important village wetlands were selected that require additional management strategies, such as conservation, enhancement, and restoration. 2 wetlands were from "absolute conservation" strategy and 4 wetlands derived from "conservation" and "enhancement" strategy wetlands in consideration of the ecological connectivity of wetlands, the use of surrounding land, and the function as a biological habitat. The wise use and conservation strategy was specifically proposed respectively.
