원주시를 비롯한 남한강 지류인 섬강의 중·하류 지역에서의 물 부족 및 수해를 방지를 위하여 남한강 지류인 섬강 유역에 횡성댐이 건설되었다. 그러나 상수원으로 이용되는 타 댐에 비해 횡성댐의 최근 5년간 TOC와 BOD₅의 평균 농도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 횡성댐 유역의 수질 오염은 원주시와 횡성군의 식수원인 횡성호의 수질에도 악영향을 미치게 되어 이에 대한 개선책이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 횡성댐 유역의 주요 유입하천을 대상으로 오염원 현황을 파악하고 홍수기 유량·수질 모니터링을 통한 오염원 특성 및 기여도를 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 SWAT 모형을 구축한 후 횡성댐 유역 내 주요 우심하천인 구사천과 횡성댐 말단 지역에 대해 적용 가능한 총 5가지의 수질개선 대책 시나리오를 구성하여 유역 모델링을 통한 전체유황, 홍·풍·평수기, 저·갈수기 수질 오염 저감 효과를 분석하였으며, 추가적인 수질개선 대책으로 지역적 특성을 반영하여 오염원별 다양한 관리대책을 제시하였다. 우심하천인 구사천의 경우 마을하수도 설치에 대한 오염부하 저감 효과와 벌목에 대한 오염부하 영향에 대한 시나리오를 모델 내 적용하여 분석하였다. 또한 횡성댐 유역 말단에 대해 비가림시설 및 유출방지턱 설치에 따른 오염부하 저감 효과, 표준시비량 적용 및 농업BMPs(물꼬관리, 완효성비료, 볏짚피복, 초생대)에 따른 오염부하 저감 효과를 분석하였다. 시나리오별 수질개선 효과를 분석한 결과, BOD₅는 최소 0.1 ~ 11.6%의 수질개선 효과가 있었으며, T-N은 0.1 ~ 22.3%, T-P는 0.1 ~ 31.8%, TOC는 0.1 ~ 3.8%의 수질개선 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 각 수질항목별 시나리오를 분석한 결과, 비가림시설 및 유출방지턱과 축산분뇨 위탁처리 시나리오, 경작지 표준 시비량 시비 및 농업 최적관리 적용 시나리오의 오염원 저감 효율이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 향후 본 연구에서 제시한 오염저감 시나리오와 수질개선 대책 등을 통해 도출된 결과는 횡성댐 유역의 수질 개선을 위한 대책 수립에 기여할 수 있을 것이라고 판단되나, 횡성호 상류유역의 수질개선만 고려했기 때문에 호소 내 수질관리에 대한 후속 연구가 추가적으로 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

The objectives of this study were to extract "Field Survey Based Infection Tree of Pine Wilt Disease(FSB_ITPWD)" and "Object Classification Based Infection Tree of Pine Wilt Disease(OCB_ITPWD)" from the Research Forest at Kangwon National University, and evaluate the spatial distribution characteristics and occurrence intensity of wood infested by pine wood nematode. It was found that the OCB optimum weights (OCB) were 11 for Scale, 0.1 for Shape, 0.9 for Color, 0.9 for Compactness, and 0.1 for Smoothness. The overall classification accuracy was approximately 94%, and the Kappa coefficient was 0.85, which was very high. OCB_ITPWD area is approximately 2.4ha, which is approximately 0.05% of the total area. When the stand structure, distribution characteristics, and topographic and geographic factors of OCB_ITPWD and those of FSB_ITPWD were compared, age class IV was the most abundant age class in FSB_ITPWD (approximately 55%) and OCB_ITPWD (approximately 44%) - the latter was 11% lower than the former. The diameter at breast heigh (DBH at 1.2m from the ground) results showed that (below 14cm) and (below 28cm) DBH trees were the majority (approximately 93%) in OCB_ITPWD, while medium and (more then 30cm) DBH trees were the majority (approximately 87%) in FSB_ITPWD, indicating different DBH distribution. On the other hand, the elevation distribution rate of OCB_ITPWD was mostly between 401 and 500m (approximately 30%), while that of FSB_ITPWD was mostly between 301 and 400m (approximately 45%). Additionally, the accessibility from the forest road was the highest at "100m or less" for both OCB_ITPWD (24%) and FSB_ITPWD (31%), indicating that more trees were infected when a stand was closer to a forest road with higher accessibility. OCB_ITPWD hotspots were 31 and 32 compartments, and it was highly distributed in areas with a higher age class and a higher DBH class.

This study purposed to estimate the forest biomass using k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) algorithm. Multiple data sources were used for the analysis such as forest type map, field survey data and Landsat TM data. The accuracy of forest biomass was evaluated with the forest stratification, horizontal reference area (HRA) and spatial filtering. Forests were divided into 3 types such as conifers, broadleaved, and Korean pine (Pinus koriansis) forests. The applied radii of HRA were 4 km, 5 km and 10 km, respectively. The estimated biomass and mean bias for conifers forest was 222 t/ha and 1.8 t/ha when the value of k=8, the radius of HRA was 4 km, and $5{\times}5$ modal was filtered. The estimated forest biomass of Korean pine was 245 t/ha when the value of k=8, the radius of HRA was 4km. The estimated mean biomass and mean bias for broadleaved forests were 251 t/ha and -1.6 t/ha, respectively, when the value of k=6, the radius of HRA was 10 km. The estimated total forest biomass by k-NN method was 799,000t and 237 t/ha. The estimated mean biomass by ${\kappa}NN$method was about 1t/ha more than that of filed survey data.

Recognizing the necessity of the development of ecologically sound silvicultural system for the mature Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis), this study was carried out to examine the invasion and growth of understory vegetation after partial cutting. In 1997, the age class VII Korean pine forest in the Experimental Forest of Kangwon National University was opened up about 50% by modified shelterwood cutting with site preparation to induce succeeding regenerations. After 10 years, plenty of hardwood have come to the stand, forming understory vegetation. The abundance and composition of understory vegetation was periodically investigated in the ten $10m{\times}10m$ permanent sample plots, estimating importance values, species diversity index and the distribution of diameter and height of the understory vegetation. Encouraged by canopy opening, the coverage of understory reached perfect closure, composed of 22 tree species and 20 shrub species in 2007. Morus bombycis occupied 29.6% of the total importance value and Cornus controversa was 17.0%, followed by Styrax obassia, Quercus aliena, Quercus mongolica, Acer mono, and Pinus koraiensis. In the year of 2000 the species diversity was highest as 2.547 with 26 tree species and deceasing thereafter, showing 2.220 with 22 tree species in 2007. As understory layer was thickly covered and got grow bigger, some shade intolerant species were disappeared, lowering species diversity. In 2007 the biggest tree was a Quercus aliena with 11.3 cm of DBH and the tallest tree was a Cornus controversa with 9.8m of height. The frequency distribution of number of trees by diameter and height classes formed the inverted-J-shaped curve, supposed to be typical uneven-aged stand.

This study was conducted to provide appropriate tending operation strategies for the natural deciduous forest, by the method of evaluating the stand quality, suggesting the removal plan for the undesirable trees, and predicting improvement cutting practice by tree quality evaluation. The results showed that average number of trees per ha was 717 stems, average DBH was 21.1cm. and average height was 13.6m. Canopy dominant species were in the order of Quercus serrata, Q. variabilis, Q. mongolica, Styrax obassia, and Ulmus davidiana var. japonica. Based on grades of four tree form factors for all tree in the study plots, we estimate the change of tree numbers. DBH and height with the improvement cutting by different tree grade. When the higher tree grade was applied to tending operation, the number of stem was decreased, but the values of DBH and height were not changed much, predicted to improve the stand quality.

The geometric characteristics of step-pool structures and how they are influenced by channel characteristics were investigated in a steep mountain stream in the Experimental Forests of Kangwon National University in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do. Average values of steps for the study reaches were as follows: step spacing, 4.69 m; step height, 0.47 m; step drop, 0.71 m; step-forming particle sizes, 0.68 m; number, 21steps/ 100 m; the ratio of step spacing to channel width, 0.5; and step steepness, 0.13. Relationships between spacing and height of steps and channel gradient showed a negative- and positive correlation, respectively, whereas all geometric variables of steps manifested poor correlation with channel width. Therefore, step steepness, expressed as the ratio of step height to step spacing, increased as channel gradient increased. The ratio of step steepness to channel gradient representing the criterion of maximum flow resistance was 1.2, indicating the channel bed's stable condition. In particular, the relationship between the ratio of step drop to step height and channel gradient showed a significant negative correlation, suggesting the influence of step-pool geometry in trapping sediment and providing an aquatic habitat. Positive correlations also exist between spacing and drop of steps and step particles. Our findings suggest that the dynamics of step-pool structures may strongly control physical and ecological environments in steep mountain streams, so understanding them is essential for stream management.
