The Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) sector of the National Greenhouse Gas Inventory is crucial for obtaining data on carbon sinks, necessitating accurate estimations. This study analyzes cases of countries applying the LULUCF sector at the Tier 3 level to propose enhanced methodologies for carbon sink estimation. In nations like Japan and Western Europe, satellite spatial information such as SPOT, Landsat, and Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR)is used alongside national statistical data to estimate LULUCF. However, in Korea, the lack of land use change data and the absence of integrated management by category, measurement is predominantly conducted at the Tier 1 level, except for certain forest areas. In this study, Space-borne LiDAR Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) was used to calculate forest canopy heights based on Relative Height 100 (RH100) in the cities of Icheon, Gwangju, and Yeoju in Gyeonggi Province, Korea. These canopy heights were compared with the 1:5,000 scale forest maps used for the National Inventory Report in Korea. The GEDI data showed a maximum canopy height of 29.44 meters (m) in Gwangju, contrasting with the forest type maps that reported heights up to 34 m in Gwangju and parts of Icheon, and a minimum of 2 m in Icheon. Additionally, this study utilized Ordinary Least Squares(OLS)regression analysis to compare GEDI RH100 data with forest stand heights at the eup-myeon-dong level using ArcGIS, revealing Standard Deviations (SDs)ranging from -1.4 to 2.5, indicating significant regional variability. Areas where forest stand heights were higher than GEDI measurements showed greater variability, whereas locations with lower tree heights from forest type maps demonstrated lower SDs. The discrepancies between GEDI and actual measurements suggest the potential for improving height estimations through the application of high-resolution remote sensing techniques. To enhance future assessments of forest biomass and carbon storage at the Tier 3 level, high-resolution, reliable data are essential. These findings underscore the urgent need for integrating high-resolution, spatially explicit LiDAR data to enhance the accuracy of carbon sink calculations in Korea.

이 시험 연구는 울폐된 천연활엽수림 내에 수하식재한 2-2 잣나무 묘목의 생육 성적을 평가하기 위하여 실시되었다. 식재 후 7년 동안의 생존률과 생장율에 대하여 상층 임관의 효과가 평가되었다. 7년생 잣나무 치수의 활착율은 약 80%로 조사되었으며, 평균 수고는 0.9m, 최소치는 0.3m, 최고치는 2.1m로 측정되었고, 평균 근원경은 1.7cm, 최소치는 l.4cm, 최고치는 3.5cm로 조사되었다. 개벌 후, 인공 조림한 잣나무의 생육 상황과 비교해 볼 때, 이 시험에서 수하식재된 잣나무 치수의 생육 상황은 공한지 인공 조림목에 비해서 매우 열등하여, 수고는 약 30%, 직경은 약 20%에도 미치지 못하는 것으로 파악되었다. 내음성이 있는 잣나무 치수라 할지라도 정상 생육하기에 상층의 울폐도가 너무 높다고 판단된다. 잣나무의 정상적인 생장과 발달을 위해서는 천연림 보육 작업에 준하는 벌채를 통하여 우량 활엽수를 잔존시키면서 50% 이상의 상층 임관을 열어 주어 광선 조건을 개선시켜야 할 것이다.

Forest stand height and volume are important indicators for management purpose as well as for the environmental analysis. Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) is backscattered over forest canopy and DSM can be acquired from such scattering characteristic, while National Elevation Dataset (NED) provides bare earth elevation data. The difference between SRTM and NED is estimated as tree height, and it is correlated with forest parameters, it is correlated with forest parameters, including average DBH, Trees per acre, net BF per acre, and total Net MBF. Especially, among them, net Board Foot(BF) per acre is the index that well represents forest volume. The Project site was Douglas-fir dominating plantation area in the western Washington an the northern Oregon in the U.S. This study shows a relationship of high correlation between the forest parameters and the product from SRTM, NED, and ETM+. This research performs multi regression analysis and regression tree algorithm, and can get more improved relationship between several parameters.

본 연구에서는 2005년 4월 강원도지역의 대규모 산불로 인해 발생한 산림피해면적과 그에 따른 피해액 산정을 목적으로 하였다. 정확한 산림피해액의 산정을 위해서는 정확한 피해지역의 분류, 수고 의 결정이 중요하며, 이를 위해 SPOT-4 위성 영상을 이용하여 산불피해가 발생한 지역의 면적을 계산하고, 항공 및 지상 LiDAR 자료를 활용하여 수고모델을 생성하였다. 수고모델로부터 나무의 높이값을 결정하고, 임상도로부터 피해지역내 수종, 밀도를 추출함으로서 임분재적을 계산하였으며, 2005년 4월 고시된 입목가격을 기준으로 산림피해액을 산정하였다.

This study was conducted to establish a management plan for the Songrim woodland restoration by analyzing the site characteristics of the Songrim Woodland Natural Monument (Natural Monument 445) in Hadong-Gun, Gyeongsangnam-Do, Korea. The Songrim woodland was a pure pine forest. To stimulate the growth of sub-trees or mid- story vegetation in both a non-rest year forest and a rest year forest, it is recommended to take a silvicultural practices such as pruning because canopy of over-story trees was closely covered. The Songrim woodland in the non-rest year forest severely competed among individual trees of DBH classes of 60 cm and height of 18 m, while the woodland in the rest-year forest competed with DBH classes of 62 cm and height of 10 m, respectively. Soil physical property such as soil hardness, soil pore space rates, and pF 2.7 was restored following the rest-year forest designation. Mean salt concentration in the Songrim woodland soils was 0.006%. The result suggests that it is needed to take a study to prevent the salt inputs to conserve the Songrim woodland.

With continuous decline of Philippine forest cover, sustainable forest management and restoration are essential to restore destroyed forest ecosystems. Unfortunately, of ten most planted trees in reforestation projects in the Philippines, eight are exotic species, with large leaf mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) being the most dominant. In this study, effect of Swietenia macrophylla in reforestation projects on native tree species was evaluated. Effects of S. macrophylla leaf litter, frequency, and canopy closure on the growth of the Philippine native species Pterocarpus indicus were investigated. Results showed that S. macrophylla leaf litter significantly inhibited the growth of P. indicus seedlings based on root collar-to-shoot height. The standardized growth rate of seedlings in plots without S. macrophylla leaf litter was significantly higher than the growth rate of seedlings in plots with leaf litter. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in the standardized growth rate of seedlings between plots without leaf litter and a control plot. On the contrary, S. macrophylla tree frequency and canopy closure showed no significant effect. These results attest to the negative effect of widely planted S. macrophylla to a valuable Philippine native tree P. indicus. With accumulating scientific evidence about negative effects of S. macrophylla on native trees, discontinued use in tree planting and reforestation efforts with active management of restoration sites previously planted with large leaf mahogany are needed.

식물의 초장은 작물의 생육상태를 가시적으로 파악 할 수 있는 생육지표로 수량과 상관성이 높아 작물 육종이나 재배 연구에 널리 사용된다. 초장과 같은 작물의 생육특성 조사는 전통적으로 자를 이용하여 사람이 직접 조사하였으나 최근 센싱, 영상 기술이 발전하면서 작물의 생육을 효율적으로 조사하기 위해 생육계측 기술을 디지털 전환하려는 연구가 시도되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 넓은 범위에 걸쳐 정밀한 측정이 가능한 레이저 스캐너를 사용하여 다양한 질소 시비 수준에서 재배된 벼 군락의 높이를 측정하고 실측 초장과 비교 분석을 수행하였다. 군락의 높이는 레이저 스캐너로 수집된 포인트 클라우드의 상위 1% 점의 높이를 계산하여 측정하였다. 상위 1% 점의 높이를 이용하여 추정한 초장이 실측 초장과 가장 높은 결정계수를 보였고(R² = 0.93, RMSE = 2.73), 선형회귀식을 도출하 여 이를 근거로 레이저 스캐너로 측정된 군락의 높이를 실측 초장으로 변환하였다. 질소 시비 조건 및 생육 시기별로 수집된 실측 초장과 추정 값(레이저 스캐너로 측정된 군락 높이 기반으로 계산된 초장)을 종합하여 벼의 생육그래프를 도출한 결과, 레이저 스캐너 기반 초장 측정 기술이 벼의 초장과 생육을 평가하는데 충분히 활용될 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후, 레이저 스캐너에서 도출된 3차원 영상은 작물 군락의 생육량 추정, 작물 초형 분석 등에 적용 가능할 것으로 판단되며, 기존 작물 생육조사 방식의 디지털 전환을 위한 기술로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Newly developing SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) sensors commonly include high resolution X-band those data are expected to contribute various applications. Recent few studies are presenting potential of X-band SAR data in forest related application. This study tried to investigate the relationship between forest stand parameters and multi-band SAR normalized backscattering. Multi-band SAR data was radiometric corrected to compare signal from different forest stand condition. Then correlation coefficients were estimated between attribute of forest stand map and normalized backscattering coefficients. Although overall correlation coefficients are not high, only X-band shows strong relationship with DBH class than other bands. The signal of C- and L-band is composed of a large number of discrete tree components such as leaves, stems, even background soil. In forest, strength of radar backscattering is affected by complex parameters. Further study might be considered more various forest stand parameters such as canopy density, stand height, volume, and biomass.
