  • Oceanic islands are biologically important for their unique assemblages of species and high levels of endemism and are sensitive to environmental change because of their isolation and small species source pools. Habitat destruction caused by human landscape development is generally accepted as the main cause of extinction on islands, with exotic species invasion a secondary cause of extinction, especially on tropical islands. However, secondary impacts of human development (e.g., general degradation through resource use and exotic species introduction) are understudied on temperate islands. To determine secondary impacts of human development on the understory vegetation community, 90 field sites on Ulleung Island, South Korea, were sampled during the summer of 2016. Understory vegetation was chosen as it is a proxy for ecosystem health. Diversity and percent cover of introduced, native, and endemic species were tested against proximity to developed areas and trail usage using a model selection approach. Diversity was also tested against percent cover of three naturalized species commonly found in survey plots. The main finding was that distance to development, distance to town, and trail usage have limited negative impacts on the understory vegetation community within best-supported models predicting native and introduced cover and diversity. However, endemic species cover was significantly lower on high usage trails. While there are no apparent locally invasive plant species on the island at the time of this study, percent cover of Robinia pseudoacacia, a naturalized tree species, negatively correlated with plot diversity. These findings indicate that forests on Ulleung Island are not experiencing a noticeable invasion of understory vegetation, and conservation efforts can be best spent preventing future invasions.

  • 빈번하게 발생하고 있는 산불은 산지유역에 과도한 토사유출 문제를 일으키고 있다. 산불 이후 산지사면에서 강우에 의한 토사유출은 지표식생인자에 의해 지배되며 지표식생은 시간의 경과에 따라 점차 회복되고 이는 토사유출을 저감시킨다. 본 연구에서는 민감도를 강우에너지에 대한 유출 및 토양침식량의 비로 정의하고, 지표인자 변화에 따른 유출 및 토양침식 민감도의 특성을 분석하였다. 그 민감도에 대한 매개변수들의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 지표식생지수와의 상관성이 가장 높았으며 지수함수적인 관계를 나타내었다. 산불이후 경과시간에 따른 민감도는 산불피해복구 대책공법과 산불의 강도 모두 적합한 감소 기울기를 보였다. 산불발생 년도에 따른 토양침식민감도의 변화에서는 산불발생 이후 약 5년이 경과하면 토양침식민감도 변화가 적어 안정적인 범위 이내로 접어드는 것이 확인되었다.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 오대산 국립공원을 대상으로 수치표고모텔, 용도지구 및 토지피복분류도를 작성하여 경관특성을 파악하고, 가시권분석을 통해 시각적 경관관리방안을 제시하는 것이었다. 분석결과, 용도지구는 자연환경지구의 면적이 감소하고 자연보존지구가 상대적으로 확대되어 보전의 성격이 강화된 반면, 취락지구도 면적이 증가하여 개발 가능성이 증가하였다. 토지피복은 자연환경지구에서 농경지 및 도시지역의 증가가 나타났다. 가시권분석을 통해 가시중복도가 높게 나타난 지역은 대부분 자연보존지구였으며 산림지역이 대부분을 차지하였다. 그러나 일부지역은 자연환경지구 내에 포함되어 지속적인 경관관리가 요구되었다.

  • Evapotranspiration mapping using both meteorological ground-based measurements and satellite-derived information has been widely studied during the last few decades and various methods have been developed for this purpose. It is significant and necessary to estimate regional evapotranspiration (ET) distribution in the hydrology and water resource research. The study focused on analyzing the surface ET of Chungbuk region using Landsat 7 ETM imagery. For this process, we estimated the regional daily evapotranspiration on May 8, 2000. The estimation of surface evapotranspiration is based on the relationship between Temperature Vegetation Dryness Index (TVDI) and Morton's actual ET. TVDI is the relational expression between Normalized Difference of Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Land Surface Temperature (LST). The distribution of NDVI corresponds well with that of land-use/land cover in Chungbuk. The LST of several part of city in Chungbuk region is higher in comparison with the averaged LST. And TVDI corresponds too well with that of land cover/land use in Chungbuk region. The low evapotranspiration availability is distinguished over the large city like Cheongju-si, Chungju-si and the difference of evapotranspiration availability on forest and paddy is high.

  • Short-term land cover changes, such as forest fire scar and crop harvesting, can be detected by high temporal resolution satellite imagery like MODIS and AVHRR. Because these optical satellite images are often obscured by clouds, the static cloud-free composite methods (maximum NDVI, minblue, minVZA, etc.) has been used based on non-overlapping composite period (8-day, 16-day, or a month). Due to relatively long time lag between successive images, these methods are not suitable for observing short-term land cover changes in near-real time. In this study, we suggested a new dynamic cloud-free composite algorithm that uses cut-and-patch method of cloud-masked daily MODIS data using MOD35 products. Because this dynamic composite algorithm generates daily cloud-free MODIS images with the most recent information, it can be used to monitor short-term land cover changes in near-real time. The dynamic composite algorithm also provides information on the date of each pixel used in compositing, thereby makes accurately identify the date of short-term event.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hydrological impact due to temporal land cover change by gradual urbanization of Anseong-cheon Gongdo watershed ($371.8km^2$). Land covers of 1981, 1990, 2000 Landsat TM images were classified by maximum likelihood method. The watershed showed a trend that forest & paddy areas decreased about $33km^2$ and $27km^2$, respectively and urban area increased about $11km^2$ during the periods. To identify the impact of streamflow due to urbanization, WMS HEC-1 was used. According to apply Huffs quartile storm events by changing land cover data, peak runoff discharge of each frequency rainfall (50, 100, 500 years) increased about 56, 36, $192m^3/sec$, respectively.

  • 본 연구는 토양의 경도(硬度) 등 물리적 역학적 특성이 차량의 주행성(走行性)에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 시도되었다. 광릉 시험림 38임반 '거'소반에 있는 20m 길이의 임지(林地)에 4m 간격으로 5개의 측점을 설치하여 트랙터로 하여금 하중(荷重)없이 1회 공주행(空走行), 통나무(중량 780-790kg)를 견인한 상태로 1회 왕복, 5회 왕복, 10회 왕복 주행토록 하였다. 각 주행 형태별로 SHM-1형, Lang Penetrometer, Clegg Impact Soil Tester 등 3개의 토양 경도계를 이용하여 측점 당 5차례 토양경도(土壤硬度)를 측정하였으며, 지피식생(地被植生)의 훼손정도와 주행차량의 미끄러짐도 관찰하였다. 조사지의 토양은 SC(점토질 모래)와 건성(乾性) 갈색(褐色) 산림토양(山林土壤)으로 판명되었다. 지피식생(地被植生)의 경우 3-5회 왕복 주행 후에는 초본류(草本類)는 짓이겨지고, 관목류(灌木類)도 잎떨어지고 수피(樹皮)도 벗겨지다가 11회 왕복 후에는 식생(植生)은 거의 사라졌다. 주행 차량이 전복(顚覆)되거나 미끄러지는 경우는 없었지만, 바퀴자국은 토양의 단위밀도가 높고 함수량이 낮은 1-3구간의 경우 불과 1-2cm의 깊이로 파인 반면 단위밀도가 낮고 함수량이 높은 4-5구간은 5-7cm 깊이로 나타났다. 주행(走行) 형태별(形態別)로 각 측점에서 조사한 토양경도(土壤硬度) 변화(變化)는 주행 횟수가 증가할수록 점점 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. L-PNTM에 의한 경도 변화는 완만하고, SHM-1형에 의한 경도 변화는 가파르게 나타났다. 비중(比重)과 단위밀도(單位密度)가 높고, 함수량(含水量)이 낮으며, 액성한계(液性限界)와 소성지수(塑性指數)가 높은 구간에서는 토양경도(土壤硬度)가 높게 나타나서 집재차량의 주행성이 좋았다. 그렇지 않은 토질 역학적인 특성을 갖는 경도가 낮은 구간에서는 바퀴자국이 깊어 주행성이 좋지 않을 것으로 판단된다. CIST로 측정한 경우에는 4kg용 해머를 사용하는 것보다는 2.5kg이나 0.5kg용 해머를 이용하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 생각한다.

  • An UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is a flight system that is designed to conduct missions without a pilot. Compared to traditional airborne-based photogrammetry, UAV-based photogrammetry is inexpensive and can obtain high-spatial resolution data quickly. In this study, we aimed to classify the land cover using high-spatial resolution images obtained using a UAV. An RGB camera was used to obtain high-spatial resolution orthoimage. For accurate classification, multispectral image about same areas were obtained using a multispectral sensor. A DSM (Digital Surface Model) and a modified NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) were generated using images obtained using the RGB camera and multispectral sensor. Pixel-based classification was performed for twelve classes by using the RF (Random Forest) method. The classification accuracy was evaluated based on the error matrix, and it was confirmed that the proposed method effectively classified the area compared to supervised classification using only the RGB image.

  • The aim of this study was to cross-validate a spatial probabilistic model of landslide likelihood ratios at Boun, Janghung and Yongin, in Korea, using a Geographic Information System (GIS). Landslide locations within the study areas were identified by interpreting aerial photographs, satellite images and field surveys. Maps of the topography, soil type, forest cover, lineaments and land cover were constructed from the spatial data sets. The 14 factors that influence landslide occurrence were extracted from the database and the likelihood ratio of each factor was computed. 'Landslide susceptibility maps were drawn for these three areas using likelihood ratios derived not only from the data for that area but also using the likelihood ratios calculated from each of the other two areas (nine maps in all) as a cross-check of the validity of the method For validation and cross-validation, the results of the analyses were compared, in each study area, with actual landslide locations. The validation and cross-validation of the results showed satisfactory agreement between the susceptibility map and the existing landslide locations.
