Nowadays, forests have been recognized as valuable resources for biological diversity and tourism/recreation. Temple forests occupy 1.3% of all the Korean forest and are under weak management although their ecological states are very good. Currently in the Buddhist society, the concern for the Buddhist arboretum has been raised as a good alternative for the practical use of temple forests to secure the sustainability of the temple forests as well as to actively meet the demand of the times for forests. This study aims to suggest establishment measures of Buddhist arboretum. This survey was performed on 105 temple forest managers and 130 laypersons. To summarize the results, the two groups differ in opinion. The temple forest managers more concerned for advertizing Buddhist culture and enhancing the image of the temple, while the laypersons had higher expectations for relaxation and education. However, they are similar in putting more emphasis on the conserving the heritage value of the temple and managing the temple forest. Above all, both groups evaluated the needs higher than the urgency and perceived managing temple forest as the most crucial function of a Buddhist arboretum. They also thought that a Buddhist arboretum should be planned to respond to the ecological characteristics of the temple area as well as to be non-exclusive to its users. Based on the important findings, five suggestions for a Buddhist arboretum were proposed. First, a Buddhist arboretum should be carried forward from a long-term point of view, developing a bond of sympathy between members of Buddhist society as well as conducting promotion and education to the general public. Second, the most significant function of a Buddhist arboretum should be preserving the temple forest, with the emphasis on relaxation and education. Third, in order to provide nonexclusive use, a Buddhist arboretum should provide mixed programs applicable to diverse user groups for high user satisfaction and educational effects. Fourth, the Buddhistic identification could be obtained through variety of plants closely associated with Buddhist culture. Lastly, in the process of collecting plants, it is also crucial to reflect the image of the temple and resource property so as to contribute itself in conservation and management of original temple forests. Thereby all Buddhist Arboretum can be classified into two types; preservation/collection and display/education/rest.

This study conducts quantitative analysis with the use of GIS of characteristics of Buddhism relics spatial locations such as Buddhist temple sites. With the intention of analysis of the generally known Buddhist temple site locations from spatial side, following the Buddhism relics sites state, the present conditions of Buddhist temple sites was analyzed from the spatial point of view. The results of the present study are that, comparing with general location analysis, different characteristics of competitive strength which maintains Buddhist temple sites functioning until now are showing. In case of such cities as Chuncheon and Wonju, Buddhist temples exist in the areas of high locational competitiveness, and most of them were located in the areas which with relatively poor environment. On the other hand, comparing with Samchuk city case, the location environment of Buddhist temples there turned out to be excellent. Such results show that we can discover the special characteristics of Buddhism which holds the entire history for the space called the Korean Peninsula.

우리나라는 1957년 창설 회원국으로 IAEA에 가입한 이래 우리나라 원자력 산업의 발전에 따라 보장조치와 관련한 협력이 증대하고 있다. 이러한 협력으로는 우리나라 원자력 시설에 대한 IAEA 사찰, 한-IAEA 보장조치 검토회의, SAGSI 활동 등이 있으며, IAEA는 우리나라의 원자력 산업 규모와 기술 능력을 고려하여 우리나라와의 협력을 강화하고자 하고 있다. 우리나라로서는 국내 통제체제의 확립과 우리나라 원자력 활동에 대한 국제적 투명성 및 신뢰도 증진을 위하여 IAEA와의 긴밀한 협력이 필요하다. 향후 우리나라는 보장조치 의무사항의 이행 뿐 아니라, IAEA Technical Office 설치, 사찰장비의 공유, 사찰의 공동 수행, 공동연구 등을 포함한 IAEA 지원 프로그램의 추진과 같은 진보된 형태의 협력을 추진토록 하여야 할 것이다.

국제원자력기구에서는 현재 적용되고 있는 보장조치(Safeguards) 방법을 보다 효과적이고 효율적으로 적용하기 위하여 1993년부터 'Program 93+2'라는 사업을 수행하고 있다. 이중 하나의 과제로 수행되고 있는 구역 보장조치는 기존의 보장조치 개념이 하나의 시설을 대상(Facility-Oriented Safeguards)으로 개발된 것과는 달리 동일한 범주의 핵물질을 취급하는 여러 개의 시설을 하나의 가상적인 구역(Fuel Cycle-Oriented Safeguards)으로 설정하여 보장조치를 적용하는 개념으로, 보다 강화된 사찰 활동에 의하여 보장조치 신뢰도를 향상시키면서 사찰 횟수 및 사찰량은 절감되고 있다. 우리나라는 한국원자력연구소의 중수로핵연료 가공시설과 월성 1호기를 천연우라늄 구역(Natural Uranium Zone)으로, 한국원전연료(주)의 경수로핵연료 가공시설과 국내의 모든 경수로를 저농축우라늄 구역(Low Enriched Uranium Zone)으로 설정하여 성공적으로 구역 보장조치를 적용하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 구역 보장조치의 적용에는 원자력산업 체제의 단순화와 같은 제약조건이 따른다. 앞으로 우리나라에서는 현재 적용되고 있는 구역 보장조치 방법이 보다 효율적으로 운영되고 시설 운영에 대한 방해를 최소화시키는 방안을 고려하여야 하며 이에 는 가공시설에서의 생산 및 수송 일정을 발전소 운영 및 사찰 일정과 적절히 조화시키는 방법, 가공시설에서 검증된 핵연료에 대하여 적절한 감시 및 봉인 장비를 적용하는 방법, 현재의 구역 이외의 시설 또는 핵물질에 새로운 구역을 설정, 적용하는 방안 등을 고려할 수 있다.

In this study, we have assessed the fire risk of Buddhist temples located in Youngdong area by means of fire loads of components. First, we categorized the components into Buddhist temples (Dae-Ung-Jeon, Pal-Sang-Jeon), Sam-Seong-Gak (Chil-Seong-Gak, San-Sin-Gak), a Buddhist temple dormitory (Sim-Geom-Dang, Seol-Seon-Dang), Lu, Il-Ju-Mun and then carried out a field survey. Then, we examined the area of each room, types as well as quantity and dimension of combustibles. The fire loads calculated in this way were 446.96 $kg/m^2$ for Buddhist temples, 331.71 $kg/m^2$ for Sam-Seong-Gak, 164.14 $kg/m^2$ for the Buddhist temple dormitory, 463.91 $kg/m^2$ for Lu and 1042.14 $kg/m^2$ for Il-Ju-Mun, thus showing Il-Ju-Mun with the biggest fire load. We speculate that this is because construction materials were similar in size and quantity to others albeit the area of Il-Ju-Mun is smallest.

The purpose of this study is to examine the chracteristics of the location of Zen Buddhist temples which are the Nine-Mountain Sects of Zen(九山禪門) from feng-shui perspective. A large number of temples have been built for about 1600 years since Buddhism had influenced on Korea. They have been built nationwide in different times by different sects of Buddhism. The pattern of location of Buddhist temples is different according to background of the times (political, economic, cultural aspect) and of tenet(difference in sects of Buddhism) when the temples were built. But the general location of Korean Buddhist temples is in accordance with feng-shui theory. Feng-shui is a traditional geographic thought in China and Korea. It is necessary to understand feng-shui in order to understand Korean landscape and cultural geography. It had given a tremendous impact on Korean landscape through choosing site of cities, settlements, houses, mounments, temples, pagodas, and so on. Before feng-shui was prevailing in Korea, Buddhist temples were mostly built on sacred place which was connected with folk beliefs. In the case of the late Silla Dynasty when Zen Buddhism was prevailing, feng-shui became popular and many. temples were built in accordance with feng-shui. The typical examples are found in the site of Nine-Mountain Sects of Zen temples. The interpretation of geomantic site of Nine-Mountain Sects of Zen temples will show us how feng-shui was applied to and reflected in the Korean peninsula. In Zen Buddhism, feng-shui was applied to the choice of the temple site. Also feng-shui theory was usually used to choose the site of stupa(Budo) where the remains of the founder of sect. In this study, I will interpret the geomantic characteristics of Nine-Mountain Sects of Zen temples. The geomantic interpretations of the temples are as follow. 1. The temples are located at the foot of a hill with surrounding mountains and a watercourse in front. Feng-shui texts often describe it as an ideal site. This geomantic situation is well equipped with natural drainage; protection from cold wind from the north or evil spirits; a good view with open space to the front; protection from unnecessary weather damage; and security and protection from strangers and invaders. 2. The sitting and facing direction of the temples correspond to the oncoming dragon's direction. 3. Many feng-shui texts discuss the types of Sa(surrounding mountains) in detail and morphologically describe them with certain animate and inanimate auspicious objects. In case of Nine-Mountain Sects of Zen temples, the geomantic landscape of these can be compared to auspicious objects. This is morphological marker for the description of configulation features of these temples. 4. Most auspicious places are not perfect, but the shortcomings can be overcome by many means. We can observe modification of landscape for the purpose of fulfilling the geomantic harmony of the temple.
