바다숲 조성 해역에 대상 해조류의 최적 적지를 도출하기위해 서식지 평가 방법을 이용하였다. 서식지 평가 방법은 HEP(Habitat Evaluation Procedure)를 이용하여 대상 해조류가 서식하기에 적합한지를 고려하여 수행하였다. 그 결과 바다숲 조성 해역에서 바다숲을 시설하기에 최적으로 예측되는 곳을 계량적으로 선정할 수 있었으며, 적지 선정에는 수심의 변화에 따른 인자인 광조건과 파랑의 변화 여부가 적지의 공간적 변동에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 선정된 적지의 총 면적은 18ha로 분석되었으며, 서식 적합 지수(Habitat Suitability Index, HSI)에 의해 분석된 서식지의 질을 계량화한 결과 0.55~0.907(최고치는 1.0) 사이의 범위를 보였고, 선정된 적지가 등 수심선 방향을 따라 분포하고 있기 때문에 바다숲 조성지에 기반 시설인 해중림초를 투하할 때, 수심에 수평 방향의 띠 형태로 시설하는 것이 가장 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was carried out to propose the new procedure to apply Habitat Evaluation Procedure(HEP) of target species using delphi technique, which is suitable to develop endangered species with few researches and ecological knowledges. To identify habitat quality of specific species in development project site, we can develop habitat model and create habitat suitability maps. In this study, we select the Common Kestrel(Falco tinnunculus) as target species in four areas(Paju, Siheung, Ansan, Hwaseong) which is located near the Seoul metropolitan area. The Delphi technique was selected to get the reliable information on the species and habitats requirements. Through the delphi approach, seven habitat components were determined as suitable variables for the Common Kestrel: density($n/km^2$) of small mammals, area($km^2$) of bare-grounds, pasturelands and riparian, and open area(%), spatial distribution and area of croplands, landscape diversity, breeding sites(tall trees, cliffs, high-rise buildings), and the length of shelf. Habitat variables used in this model were classified into two categories: % of suitable land-cover type(open areas, croplands, pasturelands, wetlands, and baregrounds) and the quality of feeding sites(within 250m from edges of woodlands). Habitat quality of the Common Kestrel was assessed against occurred sites derived from the nationwide survey. Predicted habitat suitability map were closely related to the observed sites of the endangered avian species in the study areas. With the habitat suitability map of the Common Kestrel, we assess the environmental impacts with habitat loss after development project in environmental impact assessment.

Background: The Korean scarlet dwarf, Nannophya koreana Bae (Odonata: Libellulidae), is anendangered dragonfly with an increasing risk of extinction owing to rapid climate changes and human activities. To prevent extinction, the N. koreana population and their habitat should be protected. Therefore, suitable habitat evaluation is important to build the N. koreana restoration project. The habitat suitability index model (HSI) has been widely used for habitat evaluation in diverse organisms. Results: To build a suitable HSI model for N. koreana, 16 factors were examined by seven experienced researchers. A field survey for N. koreana observed sites and spatial analysis were conducted to improve the model. Five factors were finally selected by this procedure (crown density, open water surface, water depth, pioneer plant cover, and type of water source). Finally, the N. koreana HSI model was generated with the five adjusted factors based on interview, field survey, and spatial analysis. This model was validated by a current N. koreana habitat in 2021. With this model, 46 sites in Uljin-gun, Korea, were surveyed for N. koreana habitats; five sites were identified as core habitats and seven as potential core habitats. Conclusions: This model will serve as a strong foundation for the N. koreana restoration project and as a reference for future studies on N. koreana and other endangered insect populations. Further analysis and long-term data will improve the efficacy of this model and restore endangered wildlife.

This study was conducted as a basic study to develop the HSI(Habitat Suitability Index) model of Pelophylax chosenicus based on the research on the ecological and habitat status of Pelophylax chosenicus and the literature research on the HSI model. The habitat variables of Pelophylax chosenicus are the altitude of the spawning pond, the habitat area, the distance from wetland, the soil(aptitude grade for paddy field), the place for eating such as paddy field and wetlands(land cover) and the distance from Predator(Lithobates catesbeianus) distribution area. Based on the existing literature of Pelophylax chosenicus, the results of field surveys and expert opinions, the SI(Suitability Index) model and HSI model were developed and applied to the site to examine the applicability of the HSI model. As a result of application, SI 4 and SI 5 with varying SI values seem to have a major influence on the HSI. In addition, it is considered that the HSI model is an arithmetic mean of SI models, which has a major impact on HSI. The HSI model can be an important basis for the habitat evaluation and restoration model of Pelophylax chosenicus. In particular, it is highly applicable to the selection and evaluation of alternative habitats for Pelophylax chosenicus.

This study was conducted to develop a habitat assessment system for the endangered wildlife II Kirengeshoma koreana Nakai through in-depth interviews with experts based on field surveys and environmental characteristics through spatial data analysis and literature research. Evaluation factors were selected based on the survey results of 31 variables for 23 K. koreana habitats. Afterwards, the importance and evaluation range for each assessment factor were selected. The selection of survey variables, assessment factors, importance of each factor and assessment range was conducted through in-depth interviews with experts at each stage. As a result, the assessment factors and importance were 16% for precipitation of the wettest month, 10% for vegetation zone, 12% for vegetation type, 10% for crown canopy vitality, 14% for tree layer coverage, 13% for drainage grade, 12% for soil depth, and 13% for distance to stream including dry stream. This study provides basic ecological information and a habitat assessment system for K. koreana habitats. Therefore, it can be used as primary data for preparing an endangered wildlife conservation policy, preparing a habitat improvement plan, and selecting an alternative habitat.

This study aimed to develop the HSI (Habitat Suitability Index) model of Cypripedium guttatum. and to verify this model by applying to the candidate sites for replacement habitat. The development of HSI and SI (Suitability Index) model was conducted based on the existing literature, field surveys, and expert opinions for information on ecological habitat characteristics. Seven variables were selected as habitat variables including mean maximum temperature in Jul.-Aug., lighting, slope, altitude, effective soil depth, soil texture, and artificial overexploitation (i.e. protected areas). HSI model was developed for C. guttaum based on these variables. This HSI model showed high applicability to selection and evaluation of replacement habitats for C. guttaum. Our findings could provide the basic information on habitat assessment to prevent the extinction of endangered C. guttatum. However, since there is a limitation that the survey data were insufficient, further field surveys should be conducted on several habitat types to improve the accuracy of the HSI model.

바다사막화 현상인 갯녹음이 심화됨에 따라, 바다숲 조성사업이 추진되고 있다. 그러나 조성지 선정과정은 행정적 편의성에 초점이 맞춰져 있으며, 입지적합성 분석 연구도 그 중요성에 비해 매우 제한적인 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 생태학적 요구치, 해저지형, 인문 사회환경 등을 종합적으로 고려한 합리적인 바다숲 입지적합성 평가모델을 제안한다. 연구지역인 제주도는 우리나라에서 갯녹음 현상이 최초로 발견되었으며, 최근에는 연안 전역으로 확대되고 있기에 바다숲 조성이 우선적으로 필요한 곳이다. 서식지 평가법(HEP), 3D 공간보간법(kriging) 그리고 계층적 의사결정 과정(AHP)이 연구방법으로 활용되었다. 특히 해양공간의 특성을 반영하는 3차원 공간분석을 실시하여, 기존의 연구보다 현실적인 분석을 도모하였다. 분석결과, 조천연안이 서귀포 표선연안에 비해 입지적합성이 높은 것으로 평가되었다. 조천연안은 최대 61%의 감태 서식적합도를 나타냈으며, 해저지형 조건을 충족하였고, 인문 사회환경 기준에서도 우수한 평가를 받았다. 본 연구결과는 재정적으로 효율적인 바다숲 입지선정을 가능케 하고, 합리적인 입지를 통한 연안 생태계 복원 및 어촌계 활성화에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대한다.

Today, a great effort to develop PBSD procedure to be utilized in Korea is given by domestic structural engineers, academics, and governmental organizations. After Great East Japan Earthquake (2011) took place, lots of clients in Korea became to concern of their buildings so that requests of seismic performance evaluation and seismic rehabilitation for existing buildings have been gradually increased. Such interests in seismic events initiated a rapid development of a series of guidelines for seismic performance evaluation and seismic performance enhancement. For new buildings, however, design guidelines for PBSD are yet well prepared in Korea and prescriptive design methods are dominant design procedure still. Herein, seismicity demands used in seismic performance evaluation and some important design parameters in NLRH are introduced. Some project examples for seismic performance evaluation and rehabilitation applying passive energy dissipation devices are also described in the latter part of paper.
