  • This study was conducted based on the fact that children in institutions for early childhood education located in cities lack the opportunity to experience nature. Therefore, urban parks are where it is possible to observe nature and natural environment, through which we examined the effects of nature activities on kindergarten children's curiosity and scientific problem-solving ability. The subjects of this study were 5-years old kindergarten children in attending public kindergartens in Cheonan and Asan and 42 children were randomly selected. The pretest and posttest were conducted on curiosity and scientific problem-solving ability before and after nature activities. The results showed that nature activities in urban parks had significant effects on improvement of kindergarten children's curiosity and scientific problem-solving ability (p <.05). Therefore, nature activities in urban parks had positive effects on preference for unknown and exploratory behavior, which are sub-factors of kindergarten children's curiosity. Nature activities also had positive effects on discovery and statement of the problem, creation and application of ideas, and conclusion to problem solving.

  • Reinforcement cells are used to aid grass growth and taken together, this serves to extend greenery beyond the conventional spaces of lawns, tree pits, gardens, and parks, and is advantageous to urban cities since space for greening is often limited. Drought has variable effects on plant life and the resilience of turf to drought resistance also varies with species. Changes in photosynthetic ability were more pronounced for media rather than grass species. The media of sand without organic matter was found to be least suited for drought resistance. Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and digital image analysis (DIA) data were generally in favour of Zoysia species as oppose to A. compressus. In A. compressus, selective traits such as, a more extensive root system and lower specific leaf area (SLA) were not an underlying factor that assisted this grass with enhanced drought resistance. Generally, WUE was found to be strongly related to plant characterises such as overall biomass, photosynthetic features as well as the lushness indexes, and specific leaf area. This study found a strong relationship between WUE and a suite of plant characteristics. These traits should serve as useful selection criteria for species with the ability to resist water stress.

  • It is difficult to secure public lots in the downtown area, school lots can be made the best use of important source to increase the area of green land in the city. The tree-planting campaign for schools has been in force since 1999 by the city of Seoul and at present; it is currently established as the plan of school parks. Thereupon, the purpose of this study is to present some ways to revitalize elementary schools to be used as vest pocket parks through the research of elementary schools, which are subject to the plan of school parks in Seoul. The results of this study are as below : The subjects to revitalize school parks as vest pocket parks are as follows. First, the land has to be utilized for security of space. Second, in addition to the front and back gate, another passage to the park has to be set up for easy access. Third, the fence has to be formed as a hedge used outside the park. Fourth, selecting plants, species of trees suitable for the landscape of school and taking into consideration the aspect of ecology. Finally, it is urgent to enact socially and economically proper standard of law by the new standards of area for school landscape considering not only the building law and regulations of general landscape, but also specific characteristics of school landscape.

  • Due to changes such as those stemming from the onset of the fourth industrial revolution, it is expected that industrial complexes will transform from being spacious structures into smaller, integrated complexes. Green parks, which are also a type of infrastructure within industrial complexes, also require planned direction suited to the changing environment. The planned directions of green parks in new industrial complexes were examined and surveys were conducted on industrial complex workers. Preferred functional arrangement, importance, and satisfaction levels of green ratios, preference of compound facilities linked to parks, appropriate dimensional greening methods were all surveyed across 1,035 businesses. Results of the survey exhibited that there was high awareness on the importance of building green areas, but it was found that current greenery levels were insufficient. There was a high rate of responses indicated that dimensional greening is required in building-type industrial spaces, and preferences for rooftop greenery, stair-type greenery, and atrium greenery were also high. There were many opinions that it is necessary to integrate cultural facilities, exhibition and educational facilities, commercial facilities, parking lots in parks. Furthermore, it was found that it is necessary to provide pathways for bikes and pedestrians, rather than those for vehicles, and to connect them with the green parks. This study stopped short of exploring the directions for which green parks should aim in new industrial complexes with changes in the industrial environment. In the future, more concrete plans on green park planning techniques according to the spatial characteristics and structures of new industrial complexes will be necessary.

  • 2020년 7월 공원일몰제 시행을 앞두고 도시자연공원구역 지정과 관련 법률 개정을 통해 서울시 미집행 도시공원의 실효 시점이 연장되었다. 그러나 미집행 도시공원의 개발이 여전히 가능한 상황에서 공원녹지의 추가적인 토지개발이 예상된다. 이 연구에서는 서울시 미집행 도시공원을 대상으로 향후 공원 내 사유지의 토지전용이 일어날 상황을 가정하고 예상되는 경관 연결성 변화에 따른 우선매입 대상지를 선정하고자 한다. 이를 위해 공원일몰제 시행 전과 후의 토지피복 변화와 생물의 이동능력을 반영한 4가지 경관투과성 시나리오(PB100, PB1, PA100, PA1)를 작성하였다. 이들 시나리오에 기반하여 Connectivity Analysis Toolkit의 전류흐름 매개중심성(current flow betweenness centrality) 방식으로 경관 연결성을 계산하고 미집행공원별 전류흐름 매개중심성 순위 변화를 비교하였다. 분석결과 공원일몰제 시행 이후 상황을 반영한 PA1과 PA100 시나리오에서 서울시 남부에 위치한 미집행 도시공원의 전류흐름 매개중심성 순위가 크게 감소하였고, 한강을 통한 이동이 어려운 PA1 시나리오는 북한산 인근 공원에서 전류흐름 매개중심성 순위가 크게 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 향후 미집행 도시공원의 환경적·생태적 기능을 고려한 매입방안 모색에 있어 본 연구결과가 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

  • The concept of Smart Specialization represents a major shift in EU structural policy. It recognizes place-specific qualities and particularly locally embedded knowledge to stimulate innovative economic performance. Although there have been debates about the role of universities as innovation incubator, deliberations about their influence in regional innovation strategies (RIS3) in the context of smart specialization approaches are still under-represented. This paper therefore aims at discussing the potential role of universities and related incubator environments in smart specialization strategies, which is illustrated with the help of a German state, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

  • 본 연구는 지속가능한 과학단지 환경계획의 모형을 제시하기 위하여 진행되었다. 이를 위하여 지속가능한 과학단지의 녹지환경을 환경건전성, 생태안정성, 경관심미성 측면에서 분석하였고, 이러한 원리들을 본 연구의 사례지역으로 선정한 오송생명과학단지 개발사업지에 적용하였다. 먼저 Habitat Agenda(II)와 선행연구의 결과를 종합하여 모두 15개의 지속가능한 과학단지 환경계획 요소를 도출하였다. 그리고 오송생명과학단지로 이전하게 되는 공공기관이 연구직 공무원들을 대상으로 이들 요소에 대해 중요도 설문을 실시하였다. 그 결과 과학단지의 환경적 지속가능성을 위해서는 기존의 자연녹지를 최대한 보존하여 자연환경과 조화를 이루어야 한다는 의식이 응답자들에게 매우 강하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 지속가능한 과학단지의 녹지환경은 녹색의 이미지를 증진시켜 건전한 환경을 제공할 뿐만 아니라, 생태적으로도 안정해야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 오송생명과학단지 개발사업을 평가하여 경관생태학적 환경계획에 의한 대안을 제시하였다. 또한 녹지공간의 경관심미성을 유지하기 위해서는 건물에 의해 산림이 가려지지 않도록 고도를 규제할 필요가 있다.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the soil environment of urban neighborhood parks and to use them as basic data for evaluating the ecological functions of urban parks such as groundwater regeneration, flood control, microclimate regulation, adsorption and purification. The landscape design criteria were generally evaluated as advanced, and further monitoring and studies are needed to evaluate the various ecological functions. It is also necessary to improve the phosphoric acid and nitrogen contents, which tended to be low. In addition, continuous monitoring is needed to assess the proper soil environment according to the biological species, and to evaluate the ecological functions. The results of this study can be used to evaluate the groundwater recharge of urban parks. In particular, when the land of the neighboring park is used for various purposes, the level of access of the user may be increased. Therefore, factors that may adversely affect the user's health, such as heavy metals and organic matters, should be selected and selected as management criteria. In addition, follow-up studies considering fertilization standards suitable for trees and growth of introduced vegetation, etc. are needed urgently to improve the soil environment.

  • Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are very popular governance practices, as they enable the private partner to engage in business and have profits while the public partner improves the provision of public services. PPPs are organizational arrangements with a sector-crossing or sector-blurring nature, and are modes of governance - governance by partnerships or collaborative governance (Schuppert 2011). New models and applications of PPPs have been developed over time. Collaborative governance entails information exchange, action or movement harmonization, resource sharing, and capacity enhancement among the partners (Sale 2011; 2012a). As the national university, the University of the Philippines (UP) serves as a research university in various fields of expertise and specialization by conducting basic and applied research and development, and promoting research in various colleges and universities, and contributing to the dissemination and application of knowledge, among other purposes. (Republic Act 9500) It is the site of two (2) science and technology parks (Sale 2012b), one of which is the UP - Ayala Land Technohub. A collaboration between industry and the academe, the Technohub is envisioned as an integrated community of science and technology companies building a dynamic learning and entrepreneurial laboratory (UP-AyalaLand Technohub). This paper takes a closer look at the UP - Ayala Land Technohub as an example of a PPP or collaborative governance in science and technology parks. Have information exchange, action or movement harmonization, resource sharing, and capacity enhancement taken place in the Technohub? What are some significant outcomes of, and issues arising from, the PPP? What assessment indicators may be used? Is a governance instrument needed?
