The main purpose of this study was to classify forest vegetation effectively using Landsat Thematic Mapper data(June, 1994) in mountainous region. The research area was the Mt. Wolak Experimental Forest of Chungbuk National University, near Chungju and Jecheon city, Chungcheongbuk-do. To classify forest vegetation effectively, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI) was used to reduce topographic effects. This NDVI was modified and transformed to the value of 0 to 255, and then the modified values were combined with other Landsat Thematic Mapper bands. To classify forest and land cover types, unsupervised classification method was used. The results of this study are summarized as follows. 1. Combinations of band "3, 5, NDVI" in Landsat Thematic Mapper data showed a good separation with high accuracy. The expected classification accuracy was 95.1% in Landsat Thematic Mapper data. 2. The Land Cover types were classified into six groups : coniferous forest, deciduous forest, mixed forest, paddy and grass, non-forest, and other undetectable areas. As these classified results were compared with the reconnaissance survey and aerial black and white infrared photographs, the overall classification accuracy was 76.5% in Landsat Thematic Mapper data. 3. The portion of non-forest in Mt. Wolak area was 1.9%. The percentages of coniferous, deciduous and mixed forests were 30.9%, 35.7% and 26.4%, respectively. 4. As these classified results were compared with other reference data, the percentages of coniferous, deciduous and mixed forests increased, but the portion of non-forest was exceedingly diminished. These differences are thought to be from the different research method and the different season of received Landsat Thematic Mapper data.

It is important to analyze the seasonal change profiles of land cover type in large scale for establishing preservation strategy and environmental monitoring. Because the NOAA-AVHRR data sets provide global data with high temporal resolution, it is suitable for the land cover classification of the large area. The objectives of this study were to classify land cover of Korea, to investigate the phenological profiles of land cover. The NOAA-AVHRR data from Jan. 1998 to Dec. 1998 were received by Korea Ocean Research & Development Institute(KORDI) and were used for this study. The NDVI data were produced from this data. And monthly maximum value composite data were made for reducing cloud effect and temporal classification. And the data were classified using the method of supervised classification. To label the land cover classes, they were classified again using generalized vegetation map and Landsat-TM classified image. And the profiles of each class was analyzed according to each month. Results of this study can be summarized as follows. First, it was verified that the use of vegetation map and TM classified map was available to obtain the temporal class labeling with NOAA-AVHRR. Second, phenological characteristics of plant communities of Korea using NOAA-AVHRR was identified. Third, NDVI of North Korea is lower on Summer than that of South Korea. And finally, Forest cover is higher than another cover types. Broadleaf forest is highest on may. Outline of covertype profiles was investigated.

Although many studies of nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems have reported that clearcutting creates increased organic matter decomposition and nitrogen (N) mineralization in soils, little is known about the change of these factors following various levels of canopy removal. A series of experimental plots with four levels of canopy cover, i.e., clearcut, 25％, 75％, and uncut, was established in northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) stands in northern Lover Michigan, U.S.A. I examined decomposition of cellulose filter papers and N mineralization using an in situ soil incubation technique in the top 15cm of mineral soil during the second growing season (1992, May-October) following stand manipulation. Mass loss from cellulose filter papers was more rapid in the canopy removal treatments than in the uncut treatment. similarly, net N mineralization was significantly greater in the canopy removal treatments than in the uncut treatment. There was no significant difference in net N mineralization rates among the three levels of canopy removal. Net N mineralization for the growing season was 58 kg/ha for the clearcut, 54 kg/ha for the 25％ canopy cover, 51 kg/ha for the 75％ canopy cover, and 22 kg/ha for the uncut treatment. These results indicated that even only small amounts of canopy removal (leaving 75％ canopy cover) let to substantial increases of cellulose decomposition and the amount of available soil nitrogen.

Various matching methods have been introduced by investigators to improve digital elevation model (DEM) accuracy of satellite imagery. This study proposed an area-based matching method according to land cover property using correlation coefficient of pixel brightness value between the two images for DEM generation from IKONOS stereo imagery. For this, matching line (where "matching line" implies straight line that is approximated to complex nonlinear epipolar geometry) is established by exterior orientation parameters to minimize search area. The matching is carried out based on this line. Land cover classes are divided off into water, urban land, forest and agricultural land. Matching size is selected using a correlation-coefficient image in the four areas. The selected sizes are $81{\times}81$ pixels window, $21{\times}21$ pixels window, $119{\times}119$ pixels window and $51{\times}51$ pixels window in the water area, urban land, forest land and agricultural land, respectively. And hence, DEM is generated from IKONOS stereo imagery using the selected matching sizes and land cover map on the four types.

Land cover types of Hustai National Park (HNP) in Mongolia, a hotspot area with rare species, were classified and their temporal changes were evaluated using Landsat MSS TM/ETM data between 1994 and 2000. Maximum likelihood classification analysis showed an overall accuracy of 88.0% and 85.0% for the 1994 and 2000 images, respectively. Kappa coefficients associated with the classification were resulted to 0.85 for 1994 and 0.82 for 2000 image. Land cover types revealed significant temporal changes in the classification maps between 1994 and 2000. The area has increased considerably by $166.5km^2$ for mountain steppe. By contrast, agricultural areas and degraded areas affected by human being activity were decreased by $46.1km^2$ and $194.8km^2$ over the six year span, respectively. These areas were replaced by mountain steppe area. Specifically, forest area was noticeably fragmented, accompanied by the decrease of $\sim400$ ha. The forest area revealed a pattern with systematic gain and loss associated with the specific phenomenon called as forest free-south slope. We discussed the potential environmental conditions responsible for the systematic pattern and addressed other biological impacts by outbreaks of forest pests and ungulates.

The goal of this research is to evaluate landscape-ecological characteristics of watersheds in the Nakdong River Basin by using Geogaphic Information System (GIS) and landscape indices for integation of spatio-temporal informations and multivariate statistical techniques for quantitative analysis of forest landscape. Fragmentation index and change matrix techniques using factor analysis and grid overlay method were used to efficiently analyze and manage huge amount of information for ecological-environmental assessment (land-cover and forest landscape patterns). According to the results based on the pattern analysis of land-cover changes using the change detection matrix between 1980s and 1990s, addition on 750km$^2$ became urbanized areas. The altered 442.04km$^2$ was agricultural areas which is relatively easy for shifting of land-use, and 205.1km$^2$ of forests became urbanized areas, and average elevation and slope of the whole altered areas were 75m and 4$^{\circ}$. On the other hand, 120km$^2$ of urban areas were changed into other areas (i.e., agricultural areas and green space), and fortunately, certain amount of naturalness had been recovered. But still those agricultural areas and fallow areas, which were previously urban areas, had high potential of re-development for urbanization due to their local conditions. According to the structural analysis of forest landscape using the landscape indices, the forest fragmentation of watersheds along the main stream of the Nakdong River was more severe than my other watersheds. Furthermore, the Nakdong-sangju and Nakdong-miryang watersheds had unstable forest structures as well as least amount of forest quantity. Thus, these areas need significant amount of forest through a new forest management policy considering local environmental conditions.

가속되는 지구온난화로 인해 한반도 주변의 탄소순환에 대한 명확한 이해의 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 산림은 이산화탄소의 주요 흡수원으로 지상 탄소량의 대부분을 저장하고 있어 이에 대한 추정이 필요하다. 우리나라에서는 국가산림자원조사의 표본점에서 측정되는 헥타르당 임목축적량을 활용하여 산림 탄소저장량을 추정한다. 하지만 탄소저장량은 요약된 수치 형태로 발표하고 있어 탄소저장량의 공간적 분포를 파악하는 것이 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 토지피복변화가 빠르고 국가산림자원조사 표본점 배치가 부족한 도시지역을 대상으로 UNFCCC의 Approach 3와 Tier 3를 충족하는 격자 기반 산림탄소저장량을 추정하였다. 토지피복변화 및 산림탄소저장량은 1991, 1992, 2010, 2011년에 취득된 Landsat 5 TM 영상과 고해상도 항공사진, 제 3차 및 제 5, 6차 국가산림자원조사 자료를 이용하여 추정하였다. 토지피복변화는 기계학습을 이용하여 변화된 토지피복과 변화되지 않은 토지피복 항목을 한 번에 분류하여 추정하였으며, 산림탄소저장량은 반사도, 밴드비율, 식생지수, 지형변수를 입력변수로 하여 기계학습을 통해 추정하였다. 연구 결과, 산림이 그대로 산림으로 유지되는 지역의 경우 33.23tonC/ha의 흡수를 하였으며 비산림이 산림으로 변한 지역의 경우 이보다 큰 36.83tonC/ha의 흡수가 진행된 것으로 추정되었다. 산림이 비산림으로 바뀐 경우에는 -7.35tonC/ha로, 배출이 일어난 것으로 추정되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 토지피복변화에 따른 산림탄소저장량 변화를 정량적으로 이해할 수 있었으며, 향후 효율적인 산림관리에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 Transformer 모듈을 기반으로 다양한 구조의 모델을 구성하고, 토지피복 분류를 수행하여 Transformer 모듈의 활용방안 검토를 목적으로 하였다. 토지피복 분류를 위한 딥러닝 모델은 CNN 구조를 가진 Unet 모델을 베이스 모델로 선정하였으며, 모델의 인코더 및 디코더 부분을 Transformer 모듈과 조합하여 총 4가지 딥러닝 모델을 구축하였다. 딥러닝 모델의 학습과정에서 일반화 성능 평가를 위해 같은 학습조건으로 10회 반복하여 학습을 진행하였다. 딥러닝 모델의 분류 정확도 평가결과, 모델의 인코더 및 디코더 구조 모두 Transformer 모듈을 활용한 D모델이 전체 정확도 평균 약 89.4%, Kappa 평균 약 73.2%로 가장 높은 정확도를 보였다. 학습 소요시간 측면에서는 CNN 기반의 모델이 가장 효율적이었으나 Transformer 기반의 모델을 활용할 경우, 분류 정확도가 Kappa 기준 평균 0.5% 개선되었다. 차후, CNN 모델과 Transformer의 결합과정에서 하이퍼파라미터 조절과 이미지 패치사이즈 조절 등 다양한 변수들을 고려하여 모델을 고도화 할 필요가 있다고 판단된다. 토지피복 분류과정에서 모든 모델이 공통적으로 발생한 문제점은 소규모 객체들의 탐지가 어려운 점이었다. 이러한 오분류 현상의 개선을 위해서는 고해상도 입력자료의 활용방안 검토와 함께 지형 정보 및 질감 정보를 포함한 다차원적 데이터 통합이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
