우리나라에 자생하는 꽃장포 중 희귀식물종인 꽃장포의 주요 분포지의 기상, 토양, 식생특성을 조사 분석하였다. 꽃장포는 해발고 95~145m 저지대의 북향 하천변과 경사도가 $60{\sim}90^{\circ}$정도의 가파른 암벽에 주로 분포하는 것으로 나타났다. 자생지 기상조건은 연평균온도가 전국평균보다 낮으며, 연중최고, 최저기온의 차가 극심하고 계곡주변으로 강우 시 물이 올라와 있는 곳으로 습도조건이 중요한 요인 중 하나로 파악되었다. 토양은 조사지 대부분이 약산성토양이고, 한탄강 줄기를 따라 자생지가 이어지지 않고 북북동쪽 사면쪽에서만 나타나 습도조건과 함께 일조량이 생육에 제한요인인 것으로 보였다. 꽃장포 조사지 주변식생은 대부분 조사구에서 돌단풍, 구실사리, 산조풀, 산철쭉 등이 공통으로 출현하였다. 꽃장포 분포지는 모두 우점도와 군도가 3 이하로 낮게 나타났으며 발견된 개체수가 조사지역별로 편차가 매우 컸다. 꽃장포 출현빈도는 관속식물 수와 반비례하여 나타나 다른 식물에 비해 경쟁력이 낮은 것으로 분석되었다. 냉온대성식물인 꽃장포는 기후변화로 온도상승과 폭우, 건조로 인해 강물수위변화가 극심해지면서 자생지 축소와 함께 개체 수 감소가 예상되므로 자생지보호와 함께 복원대책이 필요하다.

The study aims to propose a locating method of green space for reducing Particulate Matter (PM) in ambient air in conjunction with its source traces and vulnerable groups. In order to carry out the aims and purposes, a literature review was conducted to derive indicators of vulnerable area to PM. Based on the developed indicators, the vulnerable areas and green spaces creation strategies for each cluster were developed for the case of Seongdong-gu, Seoul. As a result, six indicators for vulnerability analysis were came out including the vulnerable groups (children's facilities, old people's facilities), emission sources (air pollutant emission workplaces, roads), and environmental indicators (particulate matter concentration, NDVI). According to the six selected indicators, the target area was divided into 39 hexagons and analyzed to result the most vulnerable areas to particulate matter. As a result of comprehensive vulnerability analysis, the Seongsu-dong area was found to be the most vulnerable to particulate matter, and 5 clusters were derived through k-means cluster analysis. Cluster 1 was analyzed as areas that most vulnerable to particulate matter as a result of the comprehensive analysis, therefore urgent need to create green spaces to reduce particulate matter. Cluster 2 was areas that mostly belonged to the Han River. Cluster 3 corresponds to the largest number of hexagons, and since many vulnerable groups are distributed, it was analyzed as a cluster that required the creation of a green spaces to reduce particulate matter, focusing on facilities for vulnerable groups. Three hexagons are included in cluster 4, and the cluster has many roads and lacks vegetation in common. Cluster 5 has a lot of green spaces and is generally distributed with fewer vulnerable groups and emission sources; however, it has a high level of particulate matter concentration. In a situation where various green spaces creation projects for reducing particulate are being implemented, it is necessary to consider the vulnerable groups and emission sources and to present green space creation strategies for each space characteristic in order to increase the effectiveness of such projects. Therefore, this study is regarded as meaningful in suggesting a method for selecting a green area for reducing PM.

Due to climate change and urbanization, abnormally high temperatures and heat waves are expected to increase in urban and deteriorate thermal comfort. Planting of street trees and changing the albedo of urban surfaces are the strategies for mitigating the thermal environment of urban, and both of these strategies affect the exposure and blocking of radiative fluxes to pedestrians. After measuring the shortwave and longwave radiation according to the ground surface with different albedo and the presence of street trees using the CNR4 net radiometer, this study analyzed the relationship between this two strategies in terms of thermal environment mitigation by calculating the MRT(Mean Radiant Temperature) of each environment. As a result of comparing the difference between the downward shortwave radiation measured under the right tree and at the control, the shortwave radiation blocking effect of the tree increased as the downward shortwave radiation increased. During daytime hours (from 11 am to 3 pm), the MRT difference caused by the albedo difference(The albedo of the surfaces are 0.479 and 0.131, respectively.) on surfaces with no tree is approximately 3.58℃. When tree is present, the MRT difference caused by the albedo difference is approximately 0.49℃. In addition, in the case of the light-colored ground surface with high albedo, the surface temperature was low and the range of temperature change was lower than the surrounding surface with low albedo. This result shows that the urban thermal environment can be midigate through the planting of street trees, and that the ground surface with high albedo can be considered for short pedestrians. These results can be utilized in planning street and open space in urban by choosing surfaces with high albedo along with the shading effect of vegetation, considering the use by various users.

This study was carried out to find the problems of assessment on terrestrial ecosystem part in environmental impact analysis(EIA) and to suggest the proper amelioration measures by analyzing 19 environmental impact statements(EIS) published during the period from 1991 to 1994. The results obtained from this study were as follows. Field survey for the investigation of fauna and flora in project areas should be conducted at least 3 times a year and name of investigator should be written on the EIS clearly. Increase or decrease in degree of green naturality and productivity cannot be an absolute criteria for expressing the amount of changes in ecosystem. Evaluation for the ecosystems and their composition in project area is more important than presenting merely the increase or decrease in degree of green naturality and productivity. Alleviation measures in 19 EISs analyzed in this study were summarized into 6 types: They are establishment of landscape plan, transplanting of useful trees preservation of big tree and protected species, restoration and preservation of existent vegetation, establishment of soil conservation measures and diminution of the impact on animal. However, they were somewhat insufficient because they wouldn't suggest the alleviation measures in detail. The more positive counter-proposals are needed to decrease the impact of the project on terrestrial ecosystem.

백두대간은 남한구간만 약 670km로 전체 지역에 대한 생태적 특성을 파악하기는 어려워 각 지역에 대한 상세한 연구가 지속적으로 수행되어야 한다. 이에 본 연구는 백두대간 구간 중 댓재에서 백봉령구간의 식생구조를 밝히고 향후 복원 및 관리계획 수립시 필요한 기초자료를 제시하고자 마루금을 중심으로 $10m{\times}10m(100m^2)$ 조사구 40개소를 설치하였다. TWINSPAN에 의한 군집분류 결과 구상나무군집, 소나무 우점군집, 신갈나무 우점군집, 일본잎갈나무 우점군집 등 8개로 유형화되었다. 구상나무군집과 소나무군집은 신갈나무와의 경쟁을 회피할 수 있는 능선부 또는 암반지대에 분포하였으나 낙엽활엽수와의 경쟁으로 쇠퇴할 가능성이 높아 보호의 필요성이 있었다. 단위면적당($400m^2$) 종다양도는 0.8046~1.1283이었으며 단일종 우점군집이 낮고 경쟁상태인 군집은 높은 것으로 나타났으며 대부분 층위구조가 형성된 보호가치가 있는 숲이었다.

Attempts to develope designation criteria for ecological protected areas were made for rational and scientific designation and management of 'ecosystem and landscape conservation areas', 'wetland protection areas', 'special islands protection areas', and 'wildlife protected areas' which have been designated and managed by the Ministry of Environment. Through analysis of the requisites and criteria of IUCN, UNESCO, Natura 2000, the Ramsar convention, the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Germany as well as various academic researches, evaluation items of the protected areas were classified into naturalness, biodiversity, ecosystem, and scientific values. These classification titles are reflection of Korean laws concerning the 4 protected areas described above. Of these items 'naturalness' is composed of 3 factors of wilderness, geomorphology and landscape, and vegetation. 'Biodiversity' is composed of the 5 factors of species diversity, endangered species, rare species, indigenous biological resources, and habitat of wetland wild animals. 'Ecosystem' is composed of 5 factors of typicalness, diversity, rarity, restoration ability, and degree of interference. All factors are scored using a 3 point scale of high, middle, or low and are then transformed into the numerical index for designating and zoning purposes. Conclusively, it is expected that the developed methodology will be highly applicable with field verifications.

This study has been conducted to perform the survey on the ecological systems, scenary, and water quality change for agriculturally purposed drainage channels constructed with the application of environment-friendly methods and thus to evaluate the environment-friendly redevelopment effects of them. The main results of this study are as follow: 1. The channels not looking good aesthetically before redevelopment had changed into graceful scenic views from the aspect of landscape architecture as natural-type gently waterside to the channel and naturally-looking water stream. In the village parks developed for the rest of residents, an enough view was secured and thus a wide prospect scope could be obtained. 2. The flora in the channels have increased to 35 families and 82 species from 19 families and 32 species before renovation. As the growth speed of them are slower than externally-brought plants, they can cause some risks to the stability of land slope, including scour by erosion. From that reason, it is necessary to adequately combine the species of the plants both natively growing there and externally-brought planted. 3. In case of water quality, it turned out that, from more than a year after redevelopment, plants began to take roots and the water quality improved. On the contrary, there have been some cases, partly found, that aggravated the quality of water due to the causes like as retention of floating matters by withered plants or plant bodies after the growth of plants in the channels under survey became active, and therefore it is judged that a periodic maintenance of waterways is needed. 4. In case of fishes, all species before renovation have revived, and the population and the number of species have increased after works the formation of puddles in the channels. In waterside grasslands, amphibia and reptiles have not only increased but also been diversified.

도로 및 철도 건설과 같은 선형개발은 외래생물의 확산에 중요한 요인으로 고려된다. 본 연구는 도로사업 수행이 외래식물 유입에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여, 한강유역환경청 관할 사업 (80개 사업) 중 현재 공사가 70% 이상 진행 중이거나 완공된 도로사업장을 대상으로 공정률에 따른 외래식물 변화를 연구하였다. 공정률은 공사 전 (P0)과 공사 중 (P25, P50, P75, P100)의 5단계로 구분하였다. 공사가 진행됨에 따라 귀화율, 도시화지수 및 외래식물 종수가 증가하였다. 특히 외래식물은 공사 초기에 급속히 유입되고 유입종은 공사가 완료될 때까지 지속적으로 출현하는 경향이었다. 그러므로 도로사업장의 외래식물 관리를 위하여 공사 초기에 성토 공정과 식생복원 공정을 집중관리하여 외래식물 유입을 최소화시킬 필요가 있다고 생각된다.

We identified the main impacts, drivers, and restoration projects for Atlantic Forest in Northwest of the Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. The objective was to analyze the quantity, distribution, and causes of the environmental crimes in 2000-2014. To verify differences between degraded and restored areas, we performed a t-test; ANOVA for the municipalities with more quantity of crimes, simple linear regression analysis for the relationship between sizes of degraded areas and quantity of seedlings planted, and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for environmental damages categories and population of the municipalities. The main environmental damages found were deforestation outside permanent preservation area (20%) and those related to Permanent Preservation Area (37%). Environmental crimes in these areas fall into two categories: native and exotic vegetation removal (17%), and impediment to natural regeneration (20%). The average size of the degraded areas was $5,359{\pm}526m^2$, while for restored areas was $3,337{\pm}255m^2$. The sizes of the degraded fragments were similar among the five municipalities with the higher number of environmental crimes (ANOVA: p>0.05, F=1.24; df=241). The number of seedlings planted was positively related to the sizes of the degraded fragments (p<0.001, $R^2=0.53$). Segregation between the less and the most populous municipalities was found with the PCA analysis along PC1 (51.7%), while PC2 represented 19.2% of the total variation. The most populous municipalities showed the highest number of environmental crimes, and the majority of degraded areas were recovered by planting native seedlings. Atlantic Forest fragments need to be recognized and preserved as an ecosystem with a unique ecological function by the population and public administration.
