In order to identify soil characteristics and to estimate the age of wetland, soil samples of Mt. Sohwangbyoung wetland and Jilmoi wetland known as peatland in Odaesan National Park.were collected and analyzed. Soil pH of Mt. Sohwangbyoung wetland and Jilmoi wetland showed average pH of 5.5, and did now show any significant difference according to the time and plant community. Total ionic content of soil showed different values among plant communities, but no difference by time in each plant community. Soil exchangeable cations such as Na, K and Mg showed a similar pattern of total ionic content. Unlike other cations, however, Ca content showed significant differences according to the plant community and time. Soil organic matter and total nitrogen contents showed remarkable differences according to plant community, and especially showed very low valeus at the place where Sphagnum palustre distributes. Based on the results of the above, Mt. Sohwangbyoung wetland and Jilmoi wetland can be considered as weakly acidic bog. From age analysis, two wetlands are estimated to have been formed before 100 AD for Mt. Sohwangbyoung wetland and 1448 AD for Jilmoi wetland, respectively.

Investigation of carabid beetles as on ecological indicator species for wetland characterization and monitoring was conducted in three types of wetlands such as emergent wetland, forested wetland, and estuary, During the investigation period, twenty-eight species belonging to twenty-two genera and three families(Carabidae, Harpalidae, Brachinidae) were identified. The diversity of carabid beetles at riverine wetland such as Woopo (H'=1.18) and Hwapo-neup (H'=1.08) were higher than in the forested wetland (H'=1.03) and estuarine (H'=0.91). Species compositions in each wetland were significantly different(${\chi}^2=1716.8$, P<0.01). Riverine wetlands differed significantly from the forested wetland. Indicator species for the wetland chose with indicator species analysis were reacted sensitively on the parameter such as soil composition, moisture of soil, and environmental change. Thus, it was consequently suggested that these indicator species may be applied for wetland characterization and monitoring of the wetland ecosystem.

To evaluate the sustainability assessment of eco-tourism resources, the assessment of Upo wetland was conducted by defining mathematical assessment models, by developing assessment indicators and by calculating the weight of main factors affecting on the sustainability through questionnaires analysis of 135 eco-tourism experts group. After that, the current sustainability grade level for Upo wetland was confirmed, and grade-level enhancement measures on each items were proposed. Although, this paper was focused on Upo wetland, but it is meaningful to prepare for the foundation in the sense of assessing scientifically and systematically the sustainability by providing concrete research model and method for the sustainability assessment of eco-tourism resources.

한반도는 산악지형이 우세하기 때문에 늪지나 호수의 발달이 불량하다. 현재 소규모 의 자연늪지는 낙동가 하류지역에 분포하며 동해안을 따라 일부 해안지역에 발달하여 있을 뿐이다. 고산지역에도 소규모의 늪지가 최근에 발견되었는데 그중에서도 무제치늪이 국내의 가장 남동쪽에 위치하고 있다. 정족산 정상부를 향하여 4개의 늪지가 차례대로 발달하여있 는데 이들의 성인은 온도차이에 의한 기계적풍화와 암석 차이에 의한 화학적 풍화적작용의 결과로 해석된다, 이들의 형성시기는 제 2늪의 습원퇴적이 가장 오래되 지층으로서 100~ 105cm 심도에서 탄소동위원소 연대측정으로 5,960$\pm$110yr BP. 의결과를 보이고 있드며 제 1늪의 습원 퇴적은 지표로부터 64~69cm 심도의 토탄층 최하부 부분에서 1,785$\pm$120yr BP. 의 연대측정 결과를 확인하였다.

This study was conducted to investigate the hydrological characteristics of groundwater level change and rainfall-runoff processes at the Moojechi Bog located in Mt. Jeungjok, Ulsan. The average runoff rate of bog was 0.58 which is similar to that of general mountainous watershed. In the short term hydrograph, runoff was increased slowly and It took a long time to arrive peak flow. After that time, the decreasing pattern of runoff was slower than that of general mountainous watershed. In case of the long term water budget, the Moojechi Bog had a abundant base flow and runoff was continued in spite of non rainfall period. The groundwater level was arrived peak flow immediately after rain stop but was decreased very slowly until the next rain. The change pattern of long term groundwater level was very similar to that of the amount of rain and discharge. The higher rainfall intensity was, the lower slope of recession curve on the groundwater level was and the longer rainfall duration was, the longer peak flow was. Judging from these results, Moojechi bog could be evaluated to have a constant groundwater level.

The physico-chemical characteristics of core sediment, community dynamics of Salix species during the sedimentation were investigated in 1990~1997 for the purpose of inquiry to reveal the effects of terrestrialization on the environment and plant community in a natural wetland. The study site, Paksil-nup wetland was a valley blocked lake located near Hwang-River, Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, Korea. The values of conductivity, organic matter, total nitrogen, exchangeable K, and exchangeable Ca were higher, and pH was lower in the upper layer of the core sediment. Soil properties such as available phosphorus, exchangeable Ca, exchangeable Na increased, and organic matter, total nitrogen, exchangeable K decreased during the sedimentation. Salix nipponica was the dominant species, and Salix glandulosa was subdominant among 10 Salix species. Sahx species were supposed to be the pioneer plants in shrub and tree layers during the succession in Paksil-nup wetland. Age class of SaliX species community from the epilittoral zone to the infralittoral zone were low, and age of Saljx species distributed from 2 years to 11 years. DBH, height, mean number of branches, number of herb species, and light intensity were increased, whereas density was decreased from a lower age to a higher age community. Salix nipponica was superior than Sahx purpurea var. japonica and other Salix species during the interspecific competition among Salix species.

The purpose of this paper is to elucidate the formation process of the Second Mujechi Moor at Mt. Jeongjok. For doing so, 1 analysed the formation process of valley which moor is located in, and the formation process of block field damming the valley: First, it is not a valley but a hollow which the Second Mujechi Moor located in. Hollow was formed as weathering bedrock weathered deeply along joints under warm and wet climatic conditions was denudated by rain wash. Second, the Second Mujechi Moor had been a marginal lake. Block stream developed during the last glacial period of Pleistocene, and it dammed the mouth of hollow. Afterwards sediments transported from slope filled the marginal lake, thus the lake changed to the moor where aquatic plants could grown. Third, the Second Mujechi Moor is drained and dried out by removal of matrix material from the block stream dam of the mouth of moor. For keeping moor's present conditions, we must control moor's drainage by filling open space in block stream with fine material.

It was investigated what is the reasonable landcover classification system for the nonpoint pollution models. According to the parameters of the nonpoint pollution models, runoff curve number, crop management factor and Manning's roughness coefficient, the landcover classification system was proposed to manage the drainage basin of the Woopo wetland. Also, the rule-based classification method was adopted to extract the landcover information for this study area.
