The purpose of study was to analyze the ecological health of the Namcheon Stream using Index of Biotic Integrity(IBI) Qualitative Habitate Evaluation Index(QHEI) and Water quality condition. Diatom samples were collected from ten sampling sites in the stream at total four times in 2006 and 2007. To assess ecological health of the stream, it was used modify metrics proposed by USEPA(1999). IBI values of the stream averaged 23 which was judged as a "fair". Physical habitate evaluation analysis showed that QHEI values in the stream averaged 57 indicating a "poor" condition. Water quality condition in the stream averaged "II" indicating a "a little good" condition In conclusion, ecological health of the Namcheon Stream was "fair" condition that means habitate minimally disturb in the aquatic environment and relatively good water quality. Especially, St. 6 St. 7, St. 8, and St. 9 showed that QHEI values in the stream averaged 47 indicating a "poor" condition. St. 6 exists mostly to interfere with the flow of the river piers and artificial beams around. They are also serious disturbance at riverbed structure in aquatic ecosystems. St. 10 was good about habitate condition however, it was disturbance of aquatic ecosystems due to nutrient. It is suggest that St. 10 needs to be managed for nutrient inflows.

Tree growth and vitality in forest shows seasonal changes. So, in order to detect forest damage accurately, we have to use satellite images before and after damages taken at the same season. However, temporal resolution of high or medium resolution images is very low,so it is not easy to acquire satellite images of the same seasons. Therefore, in this study, we estimated spectral information of the same DOY using time-series Landsat images and used the estimates as reference values to assess forest damages. The study site is Hwasun, Jeollanam-do, where forest damage occurred due to hail and drought in 2017. Time-series vegetation index (NDVI, EVI, NDMI) maps were produced using all Landsat 8 images taken in the past 3 years. Daily normal vegetation index maps were produced through cloud removal and data interpolation processes. We analyzed the difference of daily normal vegetation index value before damage event and vegetation index value after event at the same DOY, and applied the criteria of forest damage. Finally, forest damage map based on daily normal vegetation index was produced. Forest damage map based on Landsat images could detect better subtle changes of vegetation vitality than the existing map based on UAV images. In the extreme damage areas, forest damage map based on NDMI using the SWIR band showed similar results to the existing forest damage map. The daily normal vegetation index map can used to detect forest damage more rapidly and accurately.

This study was conducted in order to investigate the distribution pattern of weeds and ecological characteristics on the dry field in the Eastern region of Korea. The weed species data were obtained from 12 regions in Gangwon-do and Gyeongsang-do. 150 taxa were recorded from three main distinguished habitats; inside of dry field (IDF), embankment around the end of dry field (EDF), levee slope of dry field (LS). The weed species of three different habitats were IDF 83 taxa, EDF 133 taxa and LS 105 taxa. The species showing higher rNCD value was Portulaca oleracea in IDF, Digitaria sanguinalis in EDF and Humulus japonicus in LS. Compositae was dominant family followed by Gramineae, Polygonaceae and Leguminosae. Life form was distinguished as Th-R5-D4-e and three different habitats showed the same results. Disturbance index was analysed as IDF 83.1%, EDF 68.4%, and LS 62.9%. Naturalized rate was analysed as IDF 28.9%, EDF 22.6%, and LS 20.0%. These results indicate that the weeding management, land use intensity, and human interference effect on the distribution index and naturalized rate of weed.

The super-geomagnetic storms called 2003 Halloween event globally occurred during the period of 29 through 31 which are the following days when the solar flares of X18 class exploded on 28 October 2003. The S4 index from GPS signal strength and the peak electron density ($NmF_2$) from GPS tomography method are analyzed according to the date. The occurrences of the cycle slip and scintillation in the GPS signals are 1,094 and 1,387 on 28 and 29 October, respectively and these values are higher than 604 and 897 on 30 and 31 October. These mean the ionospheric disturbances are not always generated by the period of geomagnetic storm. Therefore, GPS S4 index is useful to monitor the ionospheric disturbances. Behaviors of ionospheric electron density estimated from GPS tomography method are analyzed with the date. At UT = 18 hr, the maximum $NmF_2$ is shown on 28 October. It agrees with $NmF_2$ variation measured from Anyang ionosonde, and the GPS signal are better condition on 30 and 31 October than 28 October. In conclusion, GPS signal condition is relation with geomagnetic activities, and depend upon the variation of the electron density. We will study the long-term data to examine the relationship between the GPS signal quality and the electron density as the further works.

The relationships between compression index, $C_c$, which is the slope of the e-log p curve from consolidation test, and other physical properties of remolded and undisturbed clays were examined. After examined, it is clarified that the $C_c$-initial porosity, $n_0$, relationship is better correlation than the $C_c$-other factors relationship, and a new $C_c$ equations using $n_0$ for remolded and undisturbed clays were suggested.

This study conducted the evaluations of stable channel and physical disturbance improvement for optimal construction of river structures by focusing on Wonju River. A stable slope was analyzed sectionally for stable channel design, and in order to satisfy the stable slope, river structure improvement scenarios were deduced. Accordingly, through physical disturbance improvement evaluation for each scenario, the study extracted the optimal scenario for stable channel design and physical disturbance improvements. The changes in physical habitat were analyzed when river structure improvements were made for stable channel design and physical disturbance improvement. Zacco koreanus, an indicator fish of the soundness of the aquatic ecosystem, was selected as a restoration target species by investigating the community characteristics of fish fauna and river environments in the Wonju River. The habitat suitability was investigated by the PHABSIM model with the habitat suitability index of Zacco koreanus. The results of the prediction evaluation showed a slight decrease in habitat suitability and weighted usable area. However, it was not influenced by the improvements in the river structure. The study suggested river structure arrangement methods that can improve physical soundness and safety of Wonju River, and confirmed that there were no effects to the changes in the physical habitat.

The compression index, $C'_c$ and the swelling index, $C'_s$ which are obtained from the e-log p curve of the consolidation test, are used to calculate the consolidation settlement. In this research, $C'_c$ and the two new methods of $C'_s$ i.e. $C'_{s1}$, $C'_{sm}$ for remolded clays were examined with the $({\omega}_0-{\omega}_p)$ and $(e_0-e_p)$ which are satisfied with the condition and the type of soil. Moreover, the relationships of $C'_{s1}$, and $C'_{sm}$ versus $C'_c$ were obtained.

It is crucial to predict the variabilities of the near-earth space environment associated with the solar activity, which cause enormous socio-economic impacts on mankind. The geomagnetic storm prediction scheme adopted in this study is designed to predict such variabilities in terms of the geomagnetic indices, AE and Dst, the cross-polar cap potential difference, the energy dissipation rate over the polar ionosphere and associated temperature increase in the thermosphere. The prediction code consists of two parts; prediction of the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field based upon actual flare observations and estimation of various electrodynamic quantities mentioned above from the solar wind-magnetosphere coupling function 'epsilon' which is derivable through the predicted solar wind parameters. As a test run, the magnetic storm that occurred in early November, 1993, is simulated and the results are compared with the solar wind and the interplanetary magnetic field measured by the Japanese satellite, Geotail, and the geomagnetic indices obtained from ground magnetic observatories. Although numerous aspects of the code are to be further improved, the comparison between the simulated results and the actual measurements encourages us to use this prediction scheme as the first appoximation in forecasting the disturbances of the near-earth space environment associated with solar flares.

에코톱은 생태학적 지휘체계(Niche)와 서식처(Habitat)가 결합된 환경을 의미하며 도면에서 최소한의 단위로 일반적인 구성요소의 상태, 잠재자연식생, 잠재생태계 기능으로 균일하게 분류가 가능한 요소로서 천이단계 또는 토지이용이 서로 다른 패치들로 이루진 생태공간을 의미한다. 따라서 에코톱과 비오톱은 식물과 동물의 특정 군집에 요구되는 서식공간의 개념에서는 의미가 같지만 비오톱은 서식공간의 일부분 또는 한 개 이상의 생물이 서식가능한 공간의 개념으로 사용된다. 현재 네덜란드, 스페인을 포함한 유럽국가에서는 에코톱분류를 통한 하천을 관리하는 방안을 제시하고 있으며 이에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 만경강 중류 소양천 합류점에서 전주천 합류점까지 약 3.5km 구간의 제외지포함 제내지 1km 폭을 대상으로 1918년 고지도 토지피복을 분류하고, 1948년 해방이전 항공사진, 2003년 2014년 항공사진을 활용한 에코톱을 분류하여 이에 대한 에코톱 다양성지수를 추이분석하여 하천으로부터 떨어진 거리 별 에코톱다양성지수 변화를 분석하였다. 분석결과 과거 제방축조 이전인 1918년 에코톱 다양성 지수는 하천으로부터 멀어질수록 안정적으로 감소하였으나 1948년 이후의 하천은 제내지에서부터 지수값이 급격히 감소한 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 1948년 이후의 만경강은 과거 1918년 하천에 비해 구하도 공간이 농경지 증가, 보설치 등으로 인한 인위적 교란에 의한 감소로 분석되어지며 에코톱다양성과 밀접한 연관이 있는 생물종다양성 역시 감소하였음을 유추할 수 있다.
