Currently, development of environmental index has been an increasingly important issue to achieve sustainable development, providing critical information to policy-makers. In particular, marine environmental composite index for Korea is widely required to establish. This paper constructs a marine environmental composite index using the OECD pressure-state-response (PSR) framework and employing multi-attribute utility theory (MAUT). The PSR framework links human activities as a pressure to environmental state and policy response. Weights are calculated by the MAUT technique. The paper provides annual pressure, state, response indices, and state index by sea area from 1991 to 2001 in Korea. The implications of the results and application plan of the index are also discussed.

The study attempts to try a classification of tidal flats types by selecting indicators and go forward to suggest a management plan by tidal flats types. With several indicators selected and PSR(Pressure-State-Response) framework, the relationship between environmental changes and socioeconomic activities in tidal flats was investigated. Tidal flats types were consequently classified into three groups: Wetland Protection Area, Wetland Rehabilitation Area, and Wetland Use-coordination Area. Accordingly, 69 tidal flats were assigned into each groups by PSR analysis: 34 Wetlands Protection Areas, 26 Wetland Rehabilitation Areas, and 9 Wetland Use-coordination Areas. So the baseic management plan of tidal flats must be different by tidal flats and characteristics of region but basically it must give top priority to the sustainable use in the long term.

급격한 도시화와 이로인한 불투수면의 증가는 유역의 물순환을 왜곡시키고 있다. 직접유출의 증가와 침투량 감소로 이어지며 이는 지하수 함유량의 감소와 하천건천화를 유발한다. 환경부는 더 이상의 물순환 왜곡을 막기위해 물환경보전법상의 물순환율을 정의하고 물순환 관리목표를 설정하였으며, 제3차 강우유출 비점오염원관리 종합대책에서 물순환 사업 추진을 위한 소권역 별 우선순위산정을 과제로써 제시하고 있다. 대표적인 물순환 사업은 저영향개발기법 설치이다. 저영향 개발기법은 토지 및 공간을 이용해야하기 때문에 설치비용이 높고 위치선정에 제약이 많으며 유지관리도 어렵다. 이에 물순환 사업에는 단순 불투수면 뿐만아니라 사회, 경제적 요소까지 고려하여야한다. 본 연구에서는 물순환 우선순위를 산정하기위해 불투수면뿐만 아니라 사회, 경제적 요소까지 고려한 종합적인 우선순위를 산정하였다. 유역 물순환 평가를 위해 PSR framework을 이용하였다. PSR framework는 OECD가 개발한 지속가능성 평가 개념이며, Pressure, State, Response 세 가지 요소로 구분해 평가하게된다. PSR framework의 기본 개념은 인간의 활동들이 환경에 압력 (P)를 주고, 이로 인해 자연의 질과 영향 (S)을 미치며, 이에대한 회복을 위해 인식과 행동을 통해 정책과 제도 등을 통해 반응 (R)한다는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 PSR framework의 평가요소 Pressure는 불투수면 및 강우, State는 물순환, 하수관거, 수질, 수생태계, Response는 협력, 인식, 재정, 토지로 구분하여 평가하였다. 최종적으로 불투수면적 감축 대상 소권역('30년 무대책 불투수면적률 25% 이상)소권역에 대하여 최종우선순위를 산정하였다.

최근 도시화 및 불투수면의 증가와 지하수의 과다한 사용으로 직접유출이 증가하고, 침투량이 감소하며, 하천의 건천화가 발생하고 있다. 이에 환경부에서는 이러한 물순환의 왜곡을 막기위해 물환경보전법상의 물순환율을 정의하고 물순환 관리목표를 설정하였다. 하지만 지역 별 물순환 특성을 반영한 관리계획이 부족하고, 현재 제한된 재원의 효율적 활용을 위해서는 물순환 관리지역에 대한 우선순위 결정도 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 PSR framework를 통해 유역 물순환 평가방법론을 만들고 이를 활용한 지역별 관리계획 및 우선순위를 결정하고자하였다. PSR framework는 지속가능성을 위해 OECD가 개발한 개념 모형이며, Pressure, State, Response 세 가지 요소로 구분해 평가하게된다. PSR framework의 기본 개념은 인간의 활동들이 환경에 압력 (P)를 주고, 이로 인해 자연의 질과 영향 (S)을 미치며, 이에대한 회복을 위해 인식과 행동을 통해 정책과 제도 등을 통해 반응 (R)한다는 것이다. 유역 물순환을 4가지 그룹 (기후, 수문학적, 사회경제학적, 환경적)으로 구분하고 각 그룹 별 평가요소에 대하여 도출하였다. 기후그룹은 강우, 수문학적 그룹은 증발산, 토지이용, 유출특성을, 사회경제학적 그룹은 재정, 사회구조, 기반시설, 정책을, 환경적 그룹은 수질, 수생태계를 선정하였다. 이후 각 요소 별 평가를 위해 다양한 지표를 고려하여 선정하였으며, 각 지표를 PSR framework에 맞춰 재분류하였다. 각 지표를 하나의 점수로 통합하기 위해 지표 별 가중치를 산정하였으며, 이때 연구자의 주관이 반영되지않는 엔트로피 기법을 이용하여 산정하였다. 구한 식을 통해 우리나라 소유역구분을 기준으로 모든 지표를 계산하였으며, 각 지표에 가중치를 적용해 유역 종합점수를 산정하고 유역 별 취약지역 및 취약요소를 평가하였다.

In this study, the indicator is established by the human activities which cause the load of the environment, the effect of the human activities on the environment, the state of the natural environment in the city, and the effort on improving this state. And this indicator is based on the DPSR(Driving Force, Pressure, State, Response)framework which combines the PSR framework of GECD with the DSR framework of UNCSD. Coexistent indicators between men and nature among the established environmental indicators apply to the case cities such as Suwon, Songnam, Bucheon, Ansan and the results are analyzed in detail. The environmental indicators established in this study will be the concrete and persuasive means which can evaluate the possibility of the sustainability that is the paradigm of the new city development when the environmental quality or state of the existing cities is evaluated.

Nowadays, the environmental conservation has become a hot issue. Also the sustainable city issue is recognized as one of the most important tasks to be solved urgently for urban development. Therefore, the current indicator for sustainable city has been analyzed only as a segment of the environmental indicator which is one kind of branch of social indicator. However, considering the degree of pollution and heightened concern, it is time to develop a new and improved framework for the analysis of the sustainable city indicator. This study aims for the development of sustainable city indicator and the examination of practical method for the use of them. Urban sustainable city indicators are based on the "Pressure-State-Response (PSR) framework" which has been adopted by Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The indicators suggested in this study is composed of the following categories: 1. Indicators of natural environment itself, such as land structure (available land use index etc.), bio-species (bio-diversity index etc.), environment resources (water quantity index etc.) 2. Indicators of relationship between man and environment, such as sustainability of using material (recycle of water index etc.), pressure size (pressure index on air etc.), effort of prevention (environmental basic facility index, etc.) 3. Indicators of environmental state, such as landscape and culture (historical & cultural index etc.), environmental pollution (air pollution index etc.) A sustainable city environment is necessary and obtainable, yet its realization seems to be difficult. The urban pollution problems have become more serious than ever before thus requiring much interest. Therefore, this kind of study is meaningful for the establishment of policy objective, and the development and management environmentally sound and sustainable cities.

우리나라는 최근 도시지역의 광역화로 인해 시가화 지역이 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 이로 인해 증가한 불투수면적은 이수 및 치수 측면에서 다양한 문제를 야기하여 유역의 물순환 체계를 왜곡하고 있다. 더불어 하천의 건천화에 따른 하천 유지유량의 감소 및 공공수역으로 방출되는 오염물질의 증가는 하천의 다양한 환경적, 생태학적 문제를 야기하고 있다. 따라서 최근에는 유역 물순환 관리가 국가 물관리 정책의 핵심 전략으로 부각되고 있으며, 적절한 물순환 관리를 위해서는 물순환 건전성이 취약한 우선관리 유역을 도출하고, 해당 유역을 중심으로 보다 체계적이고 통합적인 유역관리 기술이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유역 물순환에 영향을 미치는 주요 요소들을 기후, 수문, 수질 및 사회·경제적 요인 측면으로 구분하고, Pressure-State-Response (PSR) framework를 적용하여 각 요소 별 주요 평가 지표들을 압력 (Pressure), 상태 (State) 및 반응(Reponse) 요인으로 분류하였다. 또한 전국 소권역 단위에 대하여 각 지표들을 분석하여 기후, 수문, 수질 및 사회·경제적요인 별 물순환 건강성 점수를 산정하였다. 한편, 지역 및 요인별 물순환 건강성 점수를 기반으로 핫스팟 분석 (Hot Spot Analysis)을 수행하여, 통계적으로 유의미한 패턴을 나타내는 지역을 중심으로 우선관리가 필요한 지역을 도출하였다. 본 연구에서 도출한 물순환 건강성 평가 요소별 점수 및 핫스팟 분석 결과는 향후 물순환 우선관리 지역 선정에 있어 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The Pressure-State-Response (PSR) framework was used to develop sustainability indicators for the Han River estuarine area. A total of 37 indicators in three categories were derived after reviewing previous studies. Some of these indicators were selected to assess the sustainability of the Han River estuary and its watershed. Some indicators provided contrasting information for judging the sustainability of the area. Even though very limited information was available for the meaningful assessment of the sustainability of the Han River estuarine area, there seems to be an appropriate base for the sustainable development of the area. Securing of reliable information seems to be the key for the indicators to produce meaningful assessment of the implementation of the sustainable development strategy for the Han River Estuary and its watershed. Integrated indices to synthesize the information provided by the sectoral indicators need to be developed to overcome the limitations of the sectoral indicators.

As a result of very limited access due to the military confrontation between South and North Koreas for the last five decades, ecosystems in the transboundary coastal area in the western part of Korean Peninsula have been protected from intensive developments in both Koreas. In the core of the recent two military collisions lies the fishery resources represented as blue crabs as well as the politico-military aspect. Increasing development pressures from both sides as reflected in the South Korea supporting the construction of an industrial complex in Kaesung, North Korea, is the main factor which threatens the sustainable resource base in this region. This research is aimed to develop a cooperative management system for the well-preserved transboundary coastal area between South Korea and North Korea. The Pressure-State-Response (PSR) framework of OECD was used to assess environmental conditions, socioeconomic pressures on the environment of the region, and policy responses of both Koreas to those pressures. Protection of ecosystems, peace settlement, and prosperity of the region and the entire peninsula were proposed as the management goals of the cooperative management system. The designation of the area as a Co-managed Marine Protected Area System (COMPAS) through close cooperation among South Korea, North Korea, and international entities was suggested as a way to achieve those goals. Revision of legal and institutional mechanisms, strengthening knowledge base for optimal COMPAS management, integration of the marine protected area and DMZ (demilitarized zone) ecosystem, enhancing stakeholder participation, building international partnership, and securing financial resources were presented as six management strategies.

This study shows the application of sustainable water resource planning procedure developed in the previous paper. Its goal is to prevent the streamflow depletion in upstream watershed of the Anyangcheon which is a typical urban stream. The pressure-state-response model which is the framework to reflect the sustainability was applied. The composite programming which is the multilevel multicriteria decision making technique is also used in the calculation of state and evaluation index. The feasible alternatives were proposed and hydrologically analyzed by SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool) and the priority ranking of alternatives were proposed based on the results of SWAT.
