This study applied the contingent valuation method (CVM) to measure the benefits from an urban liner park that will be created as part of the Gyeongin Expressway downgrade project by Inchon metropolitan city government. The Incheon city government plans to create a liner park (10.5 km) in the middle of the downgraded road to provide leisure and recreation services to residents, and plans to remove retaining walls and soundproof walls to improve the urban residential environment. Considering the characteristics of a liner park that spans several districts in Incheon city and the downgraded road that will be passed by residents of nearby cities as well as Incheon residents, the target population included residents of part of Seoul and several cities surrounding Incheon. In a CVM survey of 1,000 respondents conducted in April 2018, about 70% of the respondents perceived this project positively. About 50% of 757 respondents, excluding protest bids respondents, were willing to pay additional taxes for this project. The more the respondents favored the creation of a linear park and the more they thought that this project would improve the surrounding residential environment, the more positively they evaluated the additional tax payment. The average annual willingness to pay for this project was about 15,300 won for Incheon residents and 6,800 won for residents of Seoul metropolitan area. It is interesting to observe that residents of Seoul metropolitan area, who are not directly affected by this project, were willing to pay a considerable amount for this project.

Around the world, a lot of people are migrating to the urban areas, and new cities are continuously being constructed. Currently about 54 percent of the world's population live in the urban areas, and by 2050, it is expected to increase to 66 percent; thus, managing the urban areas is one of the most important challenges of sustainable development in the 21st century. The key to successful urban management is to preserve the urban green spaces, which provide aesthetic, psychological and health benefits to the urban citizens. However, the benefits of the urban green spaces are not fully appreciated within the societies due to the difficulty of economic valuation of the urban green spaces. This study examined whether the view of the Songdo Central Park has a positive influence on the prices of the surrounding apartments, using the hedonic pricing method. The results showed that a positive relation exists between the view of the Songdo Central Park and the price of apartment. The price of an apartment with the view of the Songdo Central Park was 5 percent higher than that of an apartment without the view. In addition, it was estimated that the proximity to the Songdo Central Park has an influence on the housing price as well.

This study focused on the estimation of econcmic value and the evaluation of attitudes toward plans for the establishment of a walking tour as a public service in the city of Gwacheon. A value analysis based upon 152 questionnaires returned by the residents of Gwacheon and 175 questionnaires from the users of Seoul Race Park in Gwacheon utilized a CVM(Contingent Valuation Method) approach to estimate use value, non-use value, and potential value. The results show that 69.8% of residents and 60.0% of Seoul Race Park users had an interest, 81.6% of residents and 89.7% of Seoul Race Park users agreed to the proposed plan, and 67.8% of residents and 69.7% of Seoul Race Park users expressed a willingness to pay an additional tax or admission fee. The estimated WTP for an additional resident tax per household/year is 11,721 won while it was an additional 750 won per admission for the Seoul Race Park user group. Based on these results, the estimated total economic value of all households/year and the user group over a period of 5 years is 9,997 hundred million won, which was a doubling of the 1.4 in value of total construction costs. The results of this study strongly support the establishment of a walking tour street plan as a public service commodity.

The national park should be preserved in accordance with the regulation, but the development planning or facilities management planning has not been faithful to the spirits of the regulation. Recently natural environment has been radically changed, and especially damaged by large scale development of Service Facilities Zone. Thus the effective land use planning of the national park is required. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose the alternative site for The Second Service Facilities Zone in Mt. Kyeryong National Park using the GIS, and to compare the alternative site with the existing development site. Site selection was based on Rules of Combination which covers topographic analysis, viewshod analysis, distance analysis from hot spring well, land use analysis, and forest stand analysis.

This study is to survey facilities installed at urban parks and identify park facilities desired by users through a questionnaire survey of users who actually use the parks. Then, the outcome will be compared and evaluated to install urban park facilities that reflect the desires of users in the future. Findings showed that park facilities currently installed are mostly those easy to install and manage among facilities suggested in relevant laws. Regardless of park types and sizes, similar facilities were installed across parks. A questionnaire survey of users showed that they wanted facilities to rest, sports facilities, waterscape facilities and facilities to accompany families. The result also showed that they wanted green area-style parks that have a lot of trees. Therefore, going forward, facilities reflecting such desires of users should be installed at parks as much as possible. When developing a park creation plan for each city, it would be critical to survey the opinions of residents in relevant areas in advance and reflect it to the creation plan.

Muju Resort Development environmental impact statement(EIS) in Mt. Teogyu National Park are evaluated with the results of post-environmental evaluation. Three EIA items (ecosystem, hydrology, landuse) are investigated. In terms of ecosystem and hydrology, the environment during construction period was compared with post-construction and it was also true of hydrology section. The land use surrounding the resort area have been changed seriously, and the wildlife in large patch are endangered with the fragmentation by road and resort construction. The three items in the Muju Resort EIS was not assessed properly. So, in order to assess properly accurate data, appropriate approach, and periodical post evaluation are required.

In previous classification, forest recreation functions were evaluated by same factors and couldn't consider various characteristics of forest resources. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the recreational function of forest resources by applying different factors to each forest resources. We selected Daegu and Mt. Jiri as study area and divided forest resources into visitor-oriented and forest-oriented recreational resources. The level of recreational functions were evaluated with three grade(low, medium, high). In consequence, our study found out that it is more effective to evaluate forest recreational function by applying accessibility and attraction factors to each forest resources than previous work.

Recently, there have been a lot of studies for the value for wetlands with increased interest about wetlands. However, the value assessment for wetlands was usually conducted for natural wetlands only, without consideration for Dam-wetlands. In this study, we assumed that a dam carried out a function of wetlands and defined such dams as Dam-wetlands. Contingent Valuation Method(CVM) was used in value assessment method. Study area of this study is Yongdam-dam. We performed questionnaire survey in six metropolitan cities for the value assessment of Dam-wetland. As a result, the total values of a Yongdam-dam is estimated as 4.2 billion-won for construction scenario of wetland ecological park.

하천은 크게 하도와 홍수터 그리고 제방으로 나눌 수 있으며, 최근 대하천 및 중 소규모 하천의 홍수터 공간을 활용하여 인공습지, 체육시설 및 공원 등과 같은 다양한 친수시설들을 조성하여 활용하고 있다. 이러한 홍수터는 여름철 태풍이나 집중호우로 인해 침수되다가, 강우 사상이 종료된 이후에는 유사가 퇴적되어 복구비용이 반복적으로 발생하고 있다. 홍수시 홍수터에서의 수리적 안정성을 평가하기 위해서는 홍수터를 포함한 복단면에서의 흐름해석이 선행되어야 하며, 계산된 수리적 인자들을 이용하여 홍수터에서의 수리적 안정성을 평가할 수 있다. 국외에서는 국내와 다르게 하천 홍수터 공간을 거의 활용하지 않기 때문에 홍수터에서의 수리적 안정성 평가에 대한 연구사례는 드문 실정이며, 도시침수로 인한 제내지 홍수위험도 평가에 대한 연구가 주를 이루고 있다. 하지만 기존에 사용되고 있는 제내지 홍수위험도 지수를 국내 홍수터에 도입하여 수리적 안정성을 평가하기에는 침식 및 퇴적을 올바르게 고려할 수 없는 한계점이 있기 때문에 본 연구에서는 홍수시 홍수터 내에서 침식과 퇴적을 고려할 수 있는 홍수터 수리적 안정성 지수를 산정하고 과거 연구된 실내 수리실험 자료와 비교하여 적용성을 분석하고자 한다. 또한 자연하천에서의 실제 태풍 사상에 의한 침식 및 퇴적의 상대적 공간분포를 산정하여 홍수터에서의 수리적 안정성을 평가하고자 하였다.
