DPR Korea has been creating cropland across the country due to its chronic food shortage. Cropland was about 17.4% at the end of the 1980s, but it increased steadily to 19.6% at the end of the 1990s, 24.8% at the end of the first decade of 2000s, and 25.4% at the end of the 2010s. On the other hand, the forest land declined from about 74.8% in the late 1980s to 69.5% in the late 2010s. Urbanization is also progressing, increasing from about 1.15% at the end of the 1980s to 1.68% at the end of the 2010s. Most of the deforestation that occurred in DPR Korea was caused by conversion to cropland. These characteristics of land cover changes in DPR Korea provide useful information and implications for international and inter-Korean cooperation for DPR Korea.

One of the most important research areas on remote sensing is spectral unmixing of hyper-spectral data. For spectral unmixing of hyper spectral data, accurate land cover information is necessary. But obtaining accurate land cover information is difficult process. Obtaining land cover information from high-resolution data may be a useful solution. In this study spectral signature of endmembers on ASTER acquired in October was calculated from land cover information on IKONOS acquired in September. Then the spectral signature of endmembers applied to ASTER images acquired on January and March. Then the result of spectral unmxing of them evauateted. The spectral signatures of endmembers could be applied to different seasonal images. When it applied to an ASTER image which have similar zenith angle to the image of the spectral signatures of endmembers, spectral unmixing result was reliable. Although test data has different zenith angle from the image of spectral signatures of endmembers, the spectral unmixing results of urban and vegetation were reliable.

The Baekdudaegan Mountain Range is a backbone of the Korean Peninsula which carries special spiritual and sentimental signatures for Koreans as well as significant ecological values for diverse organisms. However, in spite of importance of this region, the forests of Baekdudaegan have been damaged in a variety of human activities by being used as highland vegetable grower, lumber region, grass land, and bare land, and are still undergoing destruction. The existing researches had determined the details of the damage through on-site and recent observations. Such methods cannot provide quantitative and integrated analysis therefore could not be utilized as objective data for the ecological conservation of Baekdudaegan forests. The goal of this study is to quantitatively analyze the forest damage in the Baekdudaegan preservation region through land cover categorization and change detection techniques by using satellite images, which are 1980s, and 1990s Landsat TM, and 2000s Landsat ETM+. The analysis was executed by detecting land cover changed areas from forest to others and analyzing changed areas' spatial patterns. Through the change detection analysis based on land cover classification, we found out that the deforested areas were approximately three times larger after the 1990s than from the 1980s to the 1990s. These areas were related to various topographical and spatial elements, altitude, slope, the distance form road, and water system, etc. This study has the significance as quantitative and integrated analysis about the Baekdudaegan preservation region since 1980s. These results could actually be utilized as basic data for forest conservation policies and the management of the Baekdudaegan preservation region.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hydrological impact due to temporal land cover change by gradual urbanization of upstream watershed of Pyeongtaek gauging station of Anseong-cheon. WMS HEC-1 was adopted, and OEM with 200 m resolution and hydrologic soil group from 1:50,000 scale soil map were prepared. Land covers of 1986, 1990, 1994 and 1999 Landsat TM images were classified by maximum likelihood method. The watershed showed a trend that forest & paddy areas decreased and urban/residential area gradually increased during the four selected years. The model was calibrated at 2 locations (Pyeonglaek and Gongdo) by comparing observed with simulated discharge results for 5 summer storm events from 1998 to 2001. The watershed average CN values varied from 61.7 to 62.3 for the 4 selected years. To identify the impact of streamflow by temporal area change of a target land use, a simple evaluation method that the CN values of areas except the target land use are unified as one representative CN value was suggested. By applying the method, watershed average CN value was affected in the order of paddy, forest and urban/residential, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hydrological impact due to temporal land cover change urbanization of Anseong-cheon watershed $(585.09km^2)$. WMS (Watershed Modeling System) HEC-1 was adopted, and burned DEM with $200{\times}200m$ resolution and soil map reclassified by hydrologic soil groups were prepared. Land cover for 1985, 1990, 1995 and 2000 were classified by maximum likelihood method, using Landsat MSS and TM imageries. Calibration and verification of HEC-1 were conducted using 4 storm events. Peak flow at Pyeong taek station increased $25.9m^3/sec$ during the past 15 years due to paddy and forest decrease. Streamflow impact by just paddy area decrease and forest area decrease were also analysed keeping watershed CN values unchanged of the given year, respectively.

토지이용 및 지표피복변화 (Land Use and land Cover Changes, LUCC)는 지구환경변화의 원인으로 중요한 연구대상이 되고 있다. LUCC는 복잡한 사회적, 경제적, 정치적 상호작용속에서 다양한 시$\cdot$공간적 스케일에서 발생하게 된다. 따라서 LUCC를 모델화하기 위해서는 LUCC를 야기시키는 원인(driving forces)과 제한요인(constraints)들의 시$\cdot$공간적인 다양성을 이해하는 작업이 선행되어야 한다. 특히, 특정 지역에서 나타나는 LUCC의 동인을 파악하기 위해서는 스케일에 따른 그 특성의 변화를 이해하는 것이 급선무이다. 이 연구는 가나(Ghana) 북부지역의 사바나 지역을 대상으로 지난 15년간 나타난 지표피복변화의 공간적인 다양성을 파악한 뒤, 공간적 스케일을 달리하면서 나타나는 LUCC의 원인을 분석하였다. 이 과정을 통해 사바나 지역에서 LUCC 과정을 모형화하기 위한 최적의 공간적인 스케일을 규명하고자 하였다. 연구지역은 지난 15년간 인구증가의 결과로 농업생산활동이 급격하게 증가한 지역이다. 연구지역에서 나타나는 지표피복변화의 정도는 LANDSAT 위성영상에서 추출한 NDVI들을 다변량 통계분석기법을 이용하여 정량화하였다. 그리고 지표피복변화의 원인을 스케일별로 파악하기 위한 도구로 다축척 계층분석기법(multi-scale hierarchical adaptive model)을 개발$\cdot$제안하였다. 개발된 기법은 지표피복의 변화정도와 원인이 될 수 있는 공간변수들간의 상관성을 공간적인 스케일을 달리하면서 순차적으로 계산해낼 수 있는 기법이다. 이 연구에서 지표피복변화의 원인으로는 '도로에서부터의 거리', 하천으로부터의 거리', '지형특성' 의 세가지 변수를 사용하였다. 지표피복 변화정도와 위의 세가지 변수들간의 상관관계는 공간적인 범위가 10$\times$10km 이하인 경우에 높게 나타났다. 하지만 공간범위가 그 이상이 될 경우에는 그 내부에서 나타나는 다양성으로 인해 통계적인 상관성이 현격하게 낮아지는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 지역 및 국가 단위의 환경변화모델에서 모델의 공간적인 구성범위가 일정한 수준을 넘으면, 그 내부에서 발생하고 있는 다양성이 급격하게 증가하여 지표피복변화의 원인과 결과를 정확하게 파악하기 힘들게 된다는 것을 의미한다. 10$\times$10km의 공간적인 범위는 농업생산이 위주가 되는 사바나 지역에서는 주로 개별 마을이 차지하고 있는 공간적인 범위와 대체적으로 일치한다. 따라서 사바나 지역에서 나타나는 지표피복변화의 다양성을 고려하면서 보다 정확하게 모형화하기 위해서는 마을단위에서 나타나는 지표피복변화과정이 최소의 모델단위가 되어야 함을 시사한다.

UHI (Urban Heat Island) is an important environmental issue occurring in highly developed (or urbanized) area such as Seoul Metropolitan City of Korea due to modification of the land surface by man-made structures. With the advance of the remote sensing technique, land cover types and LST (Land Surface Temperature) influencing UHI were frequently investigated describing that they have a positive relationship. However, the concept of land cover considers material characteristics of the urban cover in a comprehensive way and does not provide information on how human activities influence on LST in detail. Instead, land use reflects ways of land use management and human life patterns and behaviors, and explains the relationship with human activities in more details. Using this concept, LST was segmented according to land use types from the Landsat imagery to identify the human-induced heat from the surface and interannual and seasonal variation of LST with GIS. The result showed that the LST intensity of Seoul was greatest in the industrial area and followed by the commercial and residential areas. In terms of size, the residential area could be defined as the major contributor among six urban land use types (i.e., residential, industrial, commercial, transportation, etc.) affecting UHI during daytime in Seoul. For temperature, the industrial area was highest and could be defined as a major contributor. It was found that land use type was more appropriate to understand the human-induced effect on LST rather than land cover. Also, there was no significant change in the interannual pattern of LST in Seoul but the seasonal difference provided a trigger that the human life pattern could be identified from the satellite-derived LST.

Land cover and its changes, affecting multiple aspects of the environmental system such as energy balance, biogeochemical cycles, hydrological cycles and the climate system, are regarded as critical elements in global change studies. Especially in arid and semiarid regions, the observation of ecosystem that is sensitive to climate change can improve an understanding of the relationships between climate and ecosystem dynamics. The purpose of this research is analyzing the ecosystem surrounding the Gobi desert in North Asia quantitatively as well as qualitatively more concretely. We used Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) derived from SPOT-VEGETATION (VGT) sensor during 1999${\sim}$2007. Ecosystem monitoring of this area is necessary because it is a hot spot in global environment change. This study will allow predicting areas, which are prone to the rapid environmental change. Eight classes were classified and compare with MODerate resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS) global land cover. The time-series analysis was carried out for these 8 classes. Class-1 and -2 have least amplitude variation with low NDVI as barren areas, while other vegetated classes increase in May and decrease in October (maximum value occurs in July and August). Although the several classes have the similar features of NDVI time-series, we detected a slight difference of inter-annual variation among these classes.

기후변화에 대응하기 위한 정책 수립과 이행을 위해 온실가스 인벤토리 작성의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 이에 따라, 토지이용 항목과 변화들에 대해 공간 명시적으로 나타낸 Approach 3 수준의 Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry(LULUCF) 매트릭스 구축 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 LULUCF 매트릭스의 산림 항목을 중심으로 연속지적도, 중분류 토지피복지도, 임상도, 도시생태현황지도를 활용하여 LULUCF 매트릭스 구축에 적합한 공간정보를 검토하였다. 각 공간정보에 대한 분류 속성 비교를 실시하였고 충청남도 보령시를 대상으로 양적(면적) 비교, 질적(특성) 비교를 실시하였다. 양적 비교 결과 산림의 면적이 임상도에서 최고 50.42%($303.79km^2$), 지적도에서 최저 46.09%($276.65km^2$)의 차이를 보였다. 질적 비교 결과 자료 구축 범위 차이, 자료 구축 목적 차이, 분류 항목 차이, 일필일목의 원칙 적용 여부의 차이, 자료구축 시기 차이 등 5가지 질적 특성의 차이를 확인하였다. 연구 결과 도시생태현황지도가 LULUCF 매트릭스 구축에 가장 적합한 공간 정보로 판단되었으나 전국구축이 되어있지 않은 한계로 토지피복지도가 가장 적합한 것으로 검토되었다. 또한, 도시생태현황지도, 임상도, 토지피복지도 등을 서로 종합하여 LULUCF 매트릭스를 구축하게 될 경우 각 공간정보의 한계를 보완할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 추후 전국토를 대상으로 하는 1:5,000 수준의 세분류 토지피복지도 및 도시생태현황지도가 완료될 경우 LULUCF 매트릭스 작성의 정밀도를 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
