To investigate the structure and the conservation strategy of natural forest at Dosolbong area in Mt. Sobaek, 20 plots(400$m^2$) set up with random sampling method. Three groups were classified by cluster analysis. High positive correlations was proved between Acer pseudo-sieboldianum and Tilia amurensis, Weigela subsessilis, Corylus heterophylla var. thunbergii and Stephanandra incisa, Lespedeza bicolor and Styrax obassia, and high negative correlations was proved between Rhododendron schlippenbachii and Symplocos chinensis, Carpinus cordata. Species diversity(H') of investigated area was calculated 2.2521-2.3772. Leontopodium japonicum community at Dosolbong area in Mt. Sobaek should be conserved.

The purpose of this study was carried out to present the basic data for constructing a ecological stream, Shindangcheon stream located in Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea. From August 2017 to June 2019, a total of 7 surveys were conducted. The numbers of vascular plants were summarized as 388 taxa including 75 families, 246 genera, 360 species, 4 subspecies, 19 varieties, 2 forms and 3 hybrids. The most families of taxa were Poaceae (59 taxa), Asteraceae (47 taxa), Fabaceae (27 taxa), Rosaceae and Cyperaceae (20 taxa, respectively), and Polygonaceae and Brassicaceae (15 taxa, respectively). The rare plant was Aristolochia contorta Bunge, and the Korean endemic plants were 4 taxa, such as Populus × tomentiglandulosa T.B.Lee, Salix koriyanagi Kimura ex Goerz, Lespedeza maritima Nakai, and Weigela subsessilis (Nakai) L.H.Bailey. The specific plants by floristic region found in this site were 13 taxa comprising 8 taxa of grade I, 4 taxa of grade III, and 1 taxon of grade IV. The naturalized plants were 73 taxa, such as Fallopia dumetorum (L.) Holub, Persicaria orientalis (L.) Spach., Potentilla supina L. var. ternata Pterm., and so forth.

This study was executed to measure the user\`s impact natural environment in National Park Campsite. Therefore, we choose Mt. Chiak National Park and the campsite in the district of Temple Ku-Ryong as a model of analysis, which is made by ecological approach, the number of the user has influence on the environment near the campsite. The result are as follows : 1. The more the number of users becomes, the more Na, Ca, Mg ion concentration and pH in the soil increase and the less K ion becomes. 2. Litter and humus depth, litter coverage, herb coverage, soil hardness, the surface of the ground layer and tree species numbers, density and coverage of lower layer shows a sensitive reaction to the number of the users. 3. The research shows that the tolerant trees against campsite impact are Lespedeza maximowiczii, Zanthoxylum schinifolium Staphylea bumalda, Smilax sieboldii, Quercus aliena, Euonymus oxyphyllus, Weigela subsessilis and Securinega suffruticosa, and the sensitive trees are Stephanandra incisa, Rubus trichocarpa, Rubus crataegifolius, Rhododendron mucronulatum, Styrax obassia, Acer palmatum, Lindera obtusiloba, Rhododendron suhlippenbachii, Rhus japonica and Callicarpa japonica. 4. The high density of the users made the simplication of a vegetation structure. So, as the number of the user increase the species showed severe heterogeniety between the heavy-use and nonuse site. 5. As considering the landscape management about campsite and surrounding area on the way of analysis of national landscape aspect and succession sere according to ecological aspect, it may be desirable that Pinus densiflora forest be conserved as Pinus densiflora landscape and mixed forest produce natural scenery with succession sere.

To investigate the structure and the conservation strategy of natural forest at Wangkoam and Kumunkwangi Area(400-700m) in Chuwangsan, 23 plots(20$\times$20m) set up with random sampling method. Two groups were classified by cluster analysis. High positive correlations was proved between Carpinus laxiflora and Tilia amurensis, Acer mono and Deutzia parviflora, Lespedeza maximowiczii and Sorbus alnifolia, and High negative correlations was proved between Prunus padus and Sorbus alnifolia, Acer mono and Fraxinus sieboldiana, Deutzia parviflora and Quercus variabilis. Species diversity(H') of investigated area was calculated 1.2167-1.3945.

To search for inhibitory activities for lens aldose reductase, twenty two medicinal plants were tested by the method of bovine lens aldose reductase inhibition test. In this test Rubia akane(68%), Artemisia selengensis(61%), Lespedeza cuneata (58%), Ligustrum lucidum(58%), Viola patrinii(58%) extracts were shown to have aldose reductase inhibitory activity. From the radix of Rubia akane, $2-methyl-1,\;3,\;6-trihydroxy-9,\;10-anthraquinone-3-O-(6'-O-acetyl)-{\alpha}-rhamnosyl-(1{\rightarrow}2)-{\beta}-D-glucoside$ was isolated and the $IC_{50}$ of this compound in the aldose reductase inhibition test was about $1.2{\times}10^{-6}M$.
