The 2006 Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) defines ecosystem services (ES) as "the benefits people obtain from ecosystems". Identifying where ES originates, whom it benefits and how it is changing over a period of time is critical in rapidly developing country like Nepal, where the risk of ES loss is high. In the context of various ecosystem services provided by watershed, this study, particularly deals with water yield, Soil loss and Carbon sequestration computation and evaluation in Bagmati Basin of Nepal. As Bagmati Basin incorporates capital city Kathmandu of nepal, land use change is significant over decades and mapping of ES is crucial for sustainable development of Basin in future. In this regard, the objectives of this study are 1) To compute the total and sub-watershed scale water yield of the basin, 2) Computation of soil loss and sediment retention in the basin, and 3) Computation of carbon sequestration in the basin. Integrated Valuation of Environmental Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST), a popular model for ecosystem service assessment based on Budyko hydrological method is used to compute Ecosystem services. The scenario of ES in two periods of time can be referenced for various approaches of prioritization and incorporation of their value into local and regional decision making for management of basin.

본 연구의 목적은 북한산국립공원에 대한 네이버 블로그 포스트 및 LDA 토픽모델링을 활용하여 이용자 인식 및 경험 가치에 기반한 도시림의 문화서비스 수요 특성을 분석하고 공간적 평가 가능성을 검토하는 것이다. 연구에서는 블로그 포스트에 대한 토픽모델링의 결과를 바탕으로 북한산국립공원 문화서비스와의 관련성 여부와 공간평가 지표로서 활용 가능성 여부를 고려한 검토과정을 거쳐, 최종적으로 도시림의 문화서비스 공간평가 지표를 도출하였다. 구체적으로 토픽분석을 통해 도출된 총 21개의 토픽을 해석하고, 생태계서비스에 대한 MA(Millennium Ecosystem Assessment)의 문화서비스 분류체계에 기반하여 총 13개의 문화서비스 관련 토픽을 도출하였다. 이는 전체 문서의 72.7%에 해당하였다. 토픽의 내용으로는 '산행 휴양 활동' 유형(23.7%), '관광·편익시설과 연계한 간접이용가치'(12.4%), '일상적 간접이용가치'(10.7%), '영감 활동'(11.2%), '계절성이 있는 휴양 활동'(6.2%), '자연 감상 및 정적 휴양 활동'(4.3%), '문화유산 가치'(3.7%), 와 관련한 7개 유형의 문화서비스로 해석하였다. 다음으로 13개의 문화서비스 관련 토픽에 대해, 도시림으로서의 특성과 공간적 평가 가능성을 검토하여 최종적으로 도시림 문화서비스에 대한 총 8개 평가지표를 도출하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 기존의 문화서비스 평가에서 많이 사용되던 MA의 생태계서비스 분류체계가 현장을 반영하지 못하는 한계를 극복하고자 국내 사정에 맞는 도시림의 문화서비스의 평가지표를 범주화했다는 점에서 의미가 있다. 또한 연구에서는 대용량의 이용자 인식 및 경험 자료를 활용하여 문화서비스의 수요를 해석하고 도출하는 방법론을 제시했다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

Since the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment Report was published in 2005, the conflict between development and the preservation of the ecological environment has turned to paying attention to value assessments in rational decision-making. In recent years, the concept of ecosystem services has been recognized as a viable one for making significant decisions. However, a trade-off between increase and decrease occurs between the ecosystem services sub-categories (cultural service, regulating service, supporting service, and provisioning service), for which research centering on target sites is needed. To this end, the present study aims to investigate the trade-off relationship between service categories to search for reasonable decision-making strategies. As the research method, a survey was conducted using the translated version of SoIVES(Social Value for Ecosystem Services) 3.0 questionnaire of the United States Geological Survey. The research findings demonstrate the economic value, based on the derived monetary value of each service category, the economic value of the target site was compared among landscape aesthetic value 8,050,000 won, recreation value 6,750,000 won, biodiversity value 4,610,000 won, healing value 3,970,000 won, life-sustaining value 2,090,000 won, and productive value 220,000 won. And then the primarily recognized value criteria of the Tancheon ecosystem services illustrate landscape aesthetic and recreation value. Besides, this study illustrates visualized trade-off relationships based on user perception, and the derived relations illustrate the trade-off relationship between the cultural service, regulating service, supporting service, and provisioning service, as well as relationships between the components of the sub-categories.

Industrialization and modernization of the $20^{th}$ century have brought convenience to human life. However, such development produced unintentional global environmental issues such as destruction of natural ecosystem through excessive use of the natural environment beyond its capacity. The United National (UN) recognized such global environment issues and coordinated with worldwide experts to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the global ecosystem, "Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA)", to resolve the issues. The UN conducted the MA primarily to comprehend the correlation between the ecosystem and human welfare. The results demonstrated that the ecosystem provides various direct and indirect benefits to human. This new concept was introduced as the "ecosystem services". Introduction of the ecosystem services highlighted the significance of the ecosystem and led to increased research and active discussions among experts from various discipline over the recent 10 years. It has been considered that the ecosystem service concept could be incorporated in policymaking process, as primary criteria to assess and weigh the benefits of using natural resources against the effects on value of the ecosystem. The current policymaking process is affected by the contradicting logics of modernization and preservation of ecosystem. The ecosystem services concept could be the answer to forming a rational policymaking process, allowing for nature preservation while wisely using the available natural resources. The general consensus has been formed on the need of incorporating the ecosystem services concept in the policies and globally various researches on the ecosystem services have been actively conducted. However, introduction of the ecosystem services concept is still at a very early stage and research on real application of the ecosystem services is yet almost nonexistent. Also there are no clear and agreed definition, classification scheme and value appraisal methodology regarding the ecosystem services. Therefore, this research explains the basic concept of the ecosystem services and highlights specific issues for further researches, as further researches on real application of the ecosystem services would find ways for the ecosystem services approach to be valuable in the policymaking process.

최근, 새천년생태계평가(MA: Millenium Ecosystem Assessment), 생태계와 생물다양성의 경제학(TEEB: The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity) 등의 체계에 따라 생태계서비스를 평가하는 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 기존 대부분의 연구에서는 생태계기능 평가량에 화폐적 가치를 곱하여 생태계서비스를 평가하고 있어 생태계서비스와 관련된 환경 및 사회경제적 조건을 반영하지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자연 및 사회경제적 요소를 반영한 생태계서비스 평가방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 우선, 수원함양기능을 InVEST의 Water Yield 모형을 통해 평가하였고 수원함양기능에 강수량과 인구를 반영하여 수원함양의 생태계서비스를 평가하였다. 평가결과, 토지피복, 토양 등의 자연조건을 반영한 수원함양기능과 강수량 및 인구 등의 기후 및 사회경제적 인자를 추가적으로 고려한 생태계서비스의 공간분포는 서로 다른 양상을 보였다. 즉, 같은 수원함양기능을 보인 지역이라도 강수량이 적고 인구가 많은 지역에서 수원함양의 생태계서비스가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 수원함양의 생태계서비스는 수원함양기능에 추가적으로 기상 및 사회경제적 인자를 고려하여 평가되어야 한다는 것을 제시하였으며, 평가과정은 다른 분야의 생태계서비스평가에 유용하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Short rotation woody crops belonging to the genera Populus L., Salix L., Pinus L., and Eucalyptus L'Her. have provided broad economic and ecological benefits throughout the world, including afforestation and reforestation along urban to rural gradients. Within the genus Populus, cottonwoods, poplars, aspens, and their hybrids (hereafter referred to as poplars) have been shown to exhibit favorable genotype ${\times}$ environment interactions, especially in the face of changing climates. Similar growth responses have been reported for Pinus, especially with white pine (Pinus strobus L.) in the North Central United States. This has led to current research priorities focused on ecosystem services for both genera. The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (2005) defines cultural, supporting, provisioning, and regulating ecosystem services. The overarching objective of this paper was to synthesize information about the potential of poplars to provide multiple ecosystem services when grown at sites with varying soil and climate conditions across landscape gradients from urban to rural areas. Specific objectives included: 1) providing background of the United States Forest Service and its Research and Development branch, 2) integrating knowledge of current poplar breeding and development with biomass provisioning and carbon regulating ecosystem services as they relate to changing climates in the North Central United States, and 3) providing a case study illustrating this integration through comparisons of poplar with white pine. Our results were evaluated in the context of climate change mitigation, with specific focus on selection of favorable genotypes for sequestering atmospheric carbon and reducing fossil fuel carbon emissions.
