Ilsan peat-bed site, newly constructed city area, is located at the northern part of Seoul. This site is situated near the mouth of Han river, which flows through central Korea. Many fossil woods were excavated from this site, and surveyed the wood anatomical features. Totally 90 specimens were identified into 10 species including two roots and five barks which were not identified in detail. Alnus japonica and A. maxmowiczii are the most common and occupied 26. 7%, 34.4% of the total specimen number respectively, and then other species which excavated from Ilsan area are follows : Fraxinus rhynchophylla(18.9%), Lepido-balanus spp.(3.3%), Maackia amurensis(2.2%), Diospyros spp.(2.2%), Juglans mandshrica(1.1%), Prunophora spp.(1.1%), Malus or Pyrus spp.(1.1%), Rhamnus spp.(1.1%). Among the identified species there are fairly some species growing in the central - or northern temperate zone, such as A. maxmowiczii, F. rhynchophylla, Lepidobalanus spp., M. amurnsis, J. mandshurica, Rhumnus spp. Therefore, it can be estimated that the former temperature of Ilsan area was same or slightly cold than today. The species bearing fruit for food as .J, mandshunca, Diospyros spp., Prunophora spp., Mulus or Pyrus spp. were regarded as artificially planting trees, because they do not grow together in the same site.

Genetic assessments of rare and endangered species are among the first steps necessary to establish the proper management of natural populations. Transcriptome-derived single-sequence repeat markers were developed for the Korean endangered species Astilboides tabularis (Saxifragaceae) to assess its genetic diversity. A total of 96 candidate microsatellite loci were isolated based on transcriptome data using Illumina pair end sequencing. Of these, 26 were polymorphic, with one to five alleles per locus in 60 individuals from three populations of A. tabularis. The observed and expected heterozygosity per locus ranged from 0.000 to 0.950 and from 0.000 to 0.741, respectively. These polymorphic transcriptome-derived simple sequence repeat markers would be invaluable for future studies of population genetics and for ecological conservation of the endangered species A. tabularis.

The endangered species of Cyathea spinulosa (tree ferns) are among the least concerned ferns of Nepal that bring threats to them and their habitat. A way to reduce such threats is by maintaining a database of species' whereabouts and generating a scientific understanding the habitat preferences. This will eventually help in the formulation of conservation plans for the species. This research aimed to characterize the suitable habitat of C. spinulosa by enumerating the location of species in the Panchase Forests of central Nepal. The statistical index method was applied to relate the occurrence locations of species with various environmental factors for the development of indices. The suitable habitat of C. spinulosa (more and most suitable categories) covered 119 km² and accounted for 43% of the total area studied. 74.4% of occurrence locations of C. spinulosa were recorded from these habitats. The habitat characteristics suitable for C. spinulosa were: proximity to streams (high moisture), land covered by forested area (shady area), mid-elevations of hills about 1,000 m to 2,000 m (sub-tropical climate), slope gradient of 20° to 40° (steep slopes), and northern to eastern aspects. These habitat characteristics could be considered for in-situ protection of tree ferns and designating the conservation plots.

This study analyzed the ecological characteristics of the wetland protection area at tthe Nakdong River through vegetation and biota surveys, which showed that brackish water meets fresh water, a unique ecological environment has been created, biodiversity is high, and diverse habitats are distributed. Eleven plant communities, including four woody communities and seven grass communities, are distributed along the coast, and a total of 514 species, including 11 endangered wildlife species, were identified in terms of species diversity. Among them, the species diversity of the Eulsuk-do area was found to be relatively higher than that of other Barreir Islands areas. The presence of a population of Sterna albifrons on Sinja-do and a population of Eremias argus on Jinwo-do, an area outside the boundaries of the wetland protection area, confirmed the conservation value of the wetlands and the need to expand the boundaries of the wetland protection area. It is judged that this information can be used as basic information for a systematic conservation and management plan for the wetland protection area at the Nakdong River Estuary and as basic data to support the establishment of a policy.

본 연구는 비도시지역의 생물종 서식지 보전을 위해 반영할 수 있는 생물종 관련 지표의 개발과 관리지역 세분화 방안을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 생물종 서식분포를 예측한 후에 예측된 서식분포를 활용하여 종풍부도를 만들고 그 결과를 토지적성평가와 비교를 하였다. 종분포도는 59종을 대상으로 Maxent 모형을 사용하였고 15개의 모형변수(5개 지형변수, 4개 식생변수, 6개 거리변수)를 활용하였다. 예측된 생물종 서식분포를 출현/비출현으로 구분한 후 합산하여 종풍부도를 예측 하였다. 토지적성평가는 평가체계 I에 따라 보전, 농업, 개발적성을 물리적, 지역, 공간적 입지 특성별로 평가하였다. 종풍부도 등급과 토지적성평가 등급과의 비교결과는 1등급은 10.92%, 2등급은 37.10%, 3등급은 34.56%, 4등급은 20.89% 그리고 5등급은 1.73%의 면적 일치도가 나타났다. 보전관리지역으로 분류되는 1등급과 계획관리지역으로 분류되는 5등급의 일치도가 가장 낮았다. 이처럼 계획관리지역으로 분류되어도, 종풍부도를 고려해 보면 많은 계획관리지역이 상대적으로 높은 종풍부도 값을 보여주었다. 관리지역은 생물종 서식지의 핵심지역은 아니지만 경관생태학적 관점에서 주변 서식처, 이동통로 등을 제공하면서 생물다양성 보호에 기여 할 수 있다. 따라서 도시관리계획에서 잠재적 생물종 서식분포를 고려하는 노력이 보다 집중되어야 할 것이다.

담수 외래종에 대한 대중의 인식은 시대나 외래종과 관련된 특정 사건에 따라 달라진다. 인식차이는 관리계획을 수립하고 이해하는데 영향을 미쳐 외래종을 관리하는데 대중들의 인식을 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 보전문화체학 (Conservation culturomics)에서 사용하는 소셜 네트워크 플렛폼의 디지털 텍스트, 언론보도, 인터넷 검색량을 분석하여 담수 외래종에 대한 대중의 관심도와 감성을 파악하고자 하였다. 11종의 담수 외래종을 대상으로 트위터 게시글 수와, 언론보도량, 검색량을 추출하여 대중의 관심도를 파악하였다. 또한 이 자료들의 시간에 따른 추세와 계절 변동성여부, 자료의 반복 주기를 확인하였다. 수집된 자료를 텍스트마이닝 기법 기반의 감성분석을 통해 감성지수(sentiment score)로 산출해 각 종에 대한 대중들의 감성을 분석하였다. 연구결과 황소개구리와 뉴트리아, 파랑볼우럭, 큰입우럭은 다른 종들보다 상대적으로 많은 대중의 관심을 받는 것으로 확인되었다. 일부 종에서는 특정 시기에 따라 반복되고 변화하는 트윗량과, 언론보도량, 검색량을 나타냈다. 한편 텍스트마이닝 분석 결과, 대부분의 사람들이 담수 외래종에 대해 부정적인 감성을 가지고 있었다. 특히 생태계교란 생물이 지정된 이후 연도가 갈수록 부정적인 감성은 증가하였다. 하지만 과학적 근거가 없는 정보가 확산되거나 혐오를 증대시켜 담수 외래종을 관리하는 것은 한계가 있다. 따라서 외래종에 대한 대중들의 인식을 과학적으로 파악하여 관리방안이 수립되어야 한다.

As the destruction of habitats due to recent development continues, there is also increasing interest in endangered species. Mankyua chejuense is a vulnerable species that is sensitive to changes in population and habitat, and it has recently been upgraded from Endangered Species II to Endangered Species I, requiring significant management efforts. So in this study, we analyzed the potential habitats of Mankyua chejuense using MaxEnt(Maximum Entropy) modeling. We developed three models: one that considered only environmental characteristics, one that considered artificial factors, and one that reflected the habitat of dominant tree species in the overstory. Based on previous studies, we incorporated environmental and human influence factors for the habitats of Mankyua chejuense into spatial information, and we also used the habitat distribution models of dominant tree species, including Ulmus parvifolia, Maclura tricuspidata, and Ligustrum obtusifolium, that have been previously identified as major overstory species of Mankyua chejuense. Our analysis revealed that rock exposure, elevation, slope, forest type, building density, and soil type were the main factors determining the potential habitat of Mankyua chejuense. Differences among the three models were observed in the edges of the habitats due to human influence factors, and results varied depending on the similarity of the habitats of Mankyua chejuense and the dominant tree species in the overstory. The potential habitats of Mankyua chejuense presented in this study include areas where the species could potentially inhabit in addition to existing habitats. Therefore, these results can be used for the conservation and management planning of Mankyua chejuense.

Among larger species of fish found in Punatsang chhu, Brown trout (Salmo trutta) and Snow trout (Schizothorax richardsonii) are notable species. Snow trout is a native species, whereas Brown trout is an introduced species. Brown trout is noted to have a negative impact on the population of native species worldwide. This study studied the population dynamics and structure of these species to detect if the introduced species affected the native species adversely. The study was conducted on a 30 km stretch of Punatsang chhu including its major and minor tributaries at about their confluences. In total, 56 sample plots of a 200 m sampling stretch were studied with a 200 m distance between each stretch. Length, weight, maturity, and sex data for both species were collected along with the habitat and water parameters. The two species were found to prefer different areas within a single stretch with a rare overlap. Snow trout were found to be distributed widely within the basin whereas Brown trout were only found in altitudes higher than 1,000 masl ($\overline{x}$ = 1,231.77) and in turbid waters (p = 0.009). Recruitment of Snow trout was not good whereas recruitment of Brown trout was good. Length-frequency graphs indicated good inverse J distribution for the Snow trout population and sporadic for Brown trout. There is an effect of Brown trout introduction to the Snow trout living in the study area. Places invaded by Brown trout have a lesser presence of Snow trout compared to places not invaded by these species.

This study was conducted to determine the changes in soil chemical properties and the growth of seedling according to the different dredged soil improving methods at slope of Saemangeum sea dike. Undersea dredged soil was improved by five different methods. Seedlings of Ulmus davidiana var. japonica, Chionanthus retusa, Celtis sinensis, and Pinus thunbergii were planted after 9 month of experience site installation, then soil pH, NaCl concentration in soil, soil organic matter (SOM), and survival rate and height of seedling was measured. Initial soil pH was highest in the control plot but it decreased to the similar level with other soil improving plots after 35 months. There were no differences in NaCl concentration between the control and soil improving plots, and it showed decreasing tendency during the study period. In the control plot, initial SOM was lowest among that of other plots during the study period. The survival rate of 36 months after planting of P. thunbergii was highest among the species. The gap of the tree growth of P. thunbergii between the control plot and the soil improving plots was small, however, other species showed relatively higher tree height in the soil improving plots than the control plots. Creation forest with P. thunbergii might be a cost effective afforestation in coastal reclaimed land since it rarely needs additional improvement of dredged soil.
