A Nationwide survey of ecosystem in the Republic of Korea was accomplished from 1986 to 1990 and in that survey, GIS and remote sensing were used partially. This was done by the Ministry of Environment(MOE), which introduced remote sensing and GIS for environment management in late 1980's. Especially the National Institute of Environmental Research (NIER) are under the research on systematization of environmental information with an ultimate goal of application of GIS and remote sensing to environmental impact assessment. Although the Korean peninsula is in a non-tropical zone, we introduce two case studies on remote sensing applications to ecosystem managements in the Republic of Korea. One is a study on change detection in urban vegetation of Seoul with Landsat data and the other is a study on detection of insect damaged pine tree area using Landsat TM data. The techniques involved and the conclusion from these studies were relevant to vegetation studies in tropical ecosystem.

기후 변화로 인한 수문 환경의 변화에 따라 수문 모형을 이용한 정확한 예측이 필요하다. 수문 현상의 예측을 위하여 사용되고 있는 수문 모형인 Common Land Model(CLM)은 Soil-Vegetation-Atmosphere Transfer(SVAT) 모형 중 하나로 비교적 적은 변수를 이용하여 현실적인 결과를 도출하므로 세계적으로 널리 이용되고 있다. 이에 반해 국내에서는 모형의 구동을 위한 입력 자료의 미흡으로 인해 실질적인 연구 사례가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 해남의 KoFlux 지점을 대상으로 Korea Flux Network(KoFlux) 자료와 Korea Land Data Assimilation System(KLDAS) 자료를 CLM에 강제시켜 국내의 모형의 적용성에 대하여 검증하였다. KoFlux는 에디 공분산 시스템을 기반으로 지표면과 대기 사이의 Flux에 대한 측정 시스템을 운영하며 SVAT 모형의 구동을 위한 수문학적 인자들을 제공하고 있으며, KLDAS는 한반도지표동화자료체계로 위성 및 현장기반 관측 자료들을 지면모형에 적용시켜 자료동화방법을 통하여 지표 변수들을 제공하고 있다. 모형의 산출 결과는 해남 지점의 관측 자료와 비교를 통하여 CLM 모형의 적용 가능성을 검증하였고 두 결과 모두 관측 데이터와의 경향성이 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 결과 모두 신뢰할 만한 값으로 추정되며, 이를 통하여 국내의 CLM 모형 적용 가능성을 확인하였고, 국내에서의 지점 자료가 부족한 부분에 대한 KLDAS 자료의 이용 가능성 또한 확인하였다.

This paper describes the ecological structure and function of riparian zone, and their historical changes with land-use. The riparian zone consists of valley floor landform and riparian vegetation. The functions discussed are attenuation of sunlight energy, input of leaves and needles, contribution of woody debris to streams, and retention of flowing material out of transport. These primary functions directly or indirectly influence water and sediment qualities of streams, bars and floodplains, and thereby aquatic biota. Temporal changes in a hydrological system and riparian ecosystem were examined with reference to land-use conversin in order to understand the linkages between these two systems in Toikanbetsu River. The influences of channelization and land-use on discharge of suspended sediment and wetland vegetation was also investigated in Kushiro Marsh. These two examples suggested that the ecological functions of riparian zone have been degraded as flood control and reclamation works have expanded in the past twenty years The author proposes river restoration planning by preserving or creating landscape elements based on the concepts of sustaining physical and ecological linkages.

This paper demonstrates that it is feasible to evaluate forest degradation and to detect deforestation in the 8156$km^2$ study area affected by expand farming using vegetation indices derived from Landsat TM data. The NDVI-growing stock relation was applied on th Landsat TM data and a 3 second grid DEM, whose coverages could improve the assessment of forest degradation and also estimate the rate of change of forest cover area depending on elevation intervals. The strength of the relationship between the ratio of the greenness and brightness indices and forest degradation conditions would have been more interesting in the deforested areas which were converted to crop farming land.

With globally increasing interests in climate-soil-vegetation system, a new stochastic model of soil water and plant water stress is derived for better understanding of the soil water and plant water stress dynamics and their role in water-controlled ecosystem. The steady-state assumption is used for simplifying the equations. The derived model is simple yet realistic that it can account for the essential features of the system. The model represents the general characteristics of rainfall, soil, and vegetation; i.e. the soil moisture constitutes the decrease form of the steady-state and the plant water stress becomes increasing with the steady state when the rainfall is decreased. With this model, further deep study for the effects of soil water and plant water stress on the system will be accomplished.

Landuse maps are prepared from satellite imagery and field observations were conducted at various locations in the study area. Compared to the field data and NDVI and RVI thematic maps, NDVI is better than RVI, because it compensates for changing illumination conditions, surface slope, aspect and other factors. Clouds, water and snow have negative values for RVI and NDVI. Rock and bare soils have similar reflectance in both NIR and visible band, so RVI and NDVI are near zero. In forest areas with good vegetation cover, NDVI is high and landslide occurrence is less. But if annual and biennial vegetations are present and if cultivation practices are changed frequently, NDVI is medium and landslide occurrence is moderate. In areas where deforestation and settlement is in progress, NDVI is less and landslide occurrence is more. The NDVI FCC thematic map may be used as an important layer in GIS application for landslide studies. Analyzing other layers such as slope, rainfall, soil, geology, drainage, lineament, etc with NDVI FCC layer will give a better idea about the identity of landslide prone areas.

정규식생지수(NDVI)는 식생자원을 모니터링할 수 있도록 설계된 식생지수(VI-Vegetation Index) 중 하나로 여러 응용 분야에서 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 지수이다. 산림 분야에서도 NDVI가 많이 활용되고 있는데 본 논문에서는 산림 변화 모니터링을 위해 MODIS NDVI를 활용하는 방법론이 연구되었다. 특정 시점을 기준으로 NDVI 값을 비교 및 분류하여 변화를 탐지하는 방법은 기계나 기상상태의 영향으로 자료의 정확성이 떨어질 수 있고 장기적인 변화를 탐지하는데도 어려움이 있다. 이러한 점을 고려하여 본 논문에서는 하모닉 모형을 이용하여 NDVI 시계열 자료를 통해 NDVI 패턴을 고려하는 방법론을 제시하였다. 먼저 하모닉 모형을 적용하여 미관측 자료나 자료의 오류를 보정한 NDVI 시계열 자료를 재구축하고 추정된 하모닉 요소의 모수를 기준으로 장기적 패턴을 통해 식생의 변화를 모니터링할 수 있다. 제안된 방법은 한반도 지역의 2009년 8월 21일부터 2011년 9월 6일까지 총 49개의 MODIS NDVI 시계열 자료에 적용하여 모형의 유용성을 입증하였다.

The objective of this study was to predict the timing of nitrogen (N) demand through analyzing chlorophyll fluorescence (ChlF), soil-plant analysis development (SPAD), and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), which are positively correlated with foliar N concentration in star cluster (Pentas lanceolata). The plants were grown in potting soil under optimal conditions for 30 d, followed by weekly irrigation with five concentrations (0, 4, 8, 16, and 24 mM) of N for an additional 30 d. These five N application levels corresponded to leaf N concentrations of 2.62, 3.48, 4.00, 4.23, and 4.69%, respectively. We measured 13 morphological and physiological parameters, as well as the responses of these parameters to various N-fertilizer treatments. The general increases in Dickson's quality index (DQI), above-ground dry weight (DW), total DW, flowering rate, ${\Delta}F/Fm$', and qP in response to treatment with 0 to 8 mM N were similar to those of SPAD, NDVI, and Fv/Fm. Consistent and strong correlations ($R^2$= 0.60 to 0.85) were observed between leaf N concentration (%) and SPAD, NDVI, ${\Delta}F/Fm$', and above-ground DW. Validation of leaf S PAD, NDVI, and ${\Delta}F/Fm$' revealed that these vegetation indices are accurate predictors of leaf N concentration that can be used for non-destructive estimation of the proper timing for N-solution irrigation of P. lanceolata. Moreover, irrigation with 8 mM N-fertilizer i s recommended w hen leaf N concentration, SPAD, NVDI, and ${\Delta}F/Fm$' ratios are reduced from their saturation values of 4.00, 50.68, 0.64, and 0.137%, respectively.

Based on the increasing demand for a solution to reduce thermal load, extensive green roofs have great opportunity for application to existing roofs due to their light-weight and easy maintenance. The present study delivers data regarding thermal behavior and heat reduction potential in relation to vegetation coverage between green roof types. 1) In the hottest hour in a day, green roofs showed considerable potential to mitigate heat load in roof environments, which can be up to $10^{\circ}C$ difference. 2) Compared to conventional cement roofs, the extensive green roofs only have a slight potential to cool the air over green roofs. By statistical analysis of linear regression, green coverage has little to do with the reduction of air temperature; the cooling effect was proven only in nighttime. 3) Green roofs act as an insulating roof membrane, the inner substrate of green roofs remained cooler than cement roof surfaces in the daytime, but in the nighttime the green roofs generally were warmer than the cement roof surfaces. 4) The variable of vegetation coverage resulted in no significant difference in thermal behavior in the air, but had the greatest effect in keeping the substrate cool in the daytime. The high vegetation coverage also hindered the rapid cooling of the substrate in the nighttime, and therefore was warmer than other measured temperatures. In order to draw a clear conclusion to combat urban heat island effect with extensive green roofs, the experiment needs to be applied on a larger scale.
