To investigate the effects of forest fire on the change of vegetation and soil conditions by the lapse of time, the 5th soil survey and vegetation analysis were carried out in July of 1988 at the rocky areas of Mt. Kwanak, where ground fire broke out 5 years ago. Three-year increasing trends of organic matter content, the value of pH, and total nitrogen content stabilized after the restoration of the vegetation. By the comparison of the occurrences of the species for 5 years after the forest fire, woody and herbaceous plants were categorized into 4 groups, i,e., invasive, sensitive, tolerant, and neutral species to the forest fire. Although such diversity indices as the species diversity and similarity index indicate that the restoration of damaged vegetation to the original species composition was proceeded for the period, the restoration of vegetation to the original crown closure and tree growth was not proceeded yet.

The purpose of this study is to identify the type and characteristics of the domestic natural streams in order to establish a basis for stream restoration and evaluation. To this end, 95 domestic natural stream areas, which have various natural environments, were selected except for the province of island and then the characteristics of natural environment, hydromorpholoy, plant and vegetation were investigated and analyzed in each stream area. As a result, 95 stream areas were classified into total 24 types according to 3 criteria such as stream size (4 types), altitude (3 types), bed material (5 types). Depending on altitude class that is the environmental factor showing the highest correlation with each stream types, the emergence of vegetation and plant, 24 stream types were reclassified into 3 types such as lowland (altitude less than 200m), mountain (altitude from 200m to 500m), highland (altitude more than 500m), and hydromorpholoy, plant and vegetation characteristics of each stream type were compared. First, when compared to the mountain and highland streams, the typical features of lowland streams were as follows: Stream size was large but bed material size was small and there were many valley forms where flood plane were developed well. In addition, the more large stream size was, the more cross-section width variability, bars and sinuosity were in good conditions. In lowland stream, representative vegetation community was Salix koreensis community. On the other hand, when compared to the lowland streams, the typical features of mountain and highland streams were as follows: Stream size was small but bed material was coarse-grained and its size was large. Mountain and highland streams valley form where flood plane was not developed well was narrow, and sinuosity and bars development were weak. Representative vegetation communities of mountain streams were Quercus serrata -, Quercus variabilis -, Styrax japonica community and representative vegetation communities of highland streams were Pinus densiflora -, Quercus mongolica -, Fraxinus rhynchophylla community.

CN procedure has been proven to be useful method for evaluating the effects of changes in land-use and treatment on hydrology. In this study, the use of Landsat multi-spectral image was investigated for analyzing the land-use distribution. From the Landsat data, forest areas were classified according to the density of trees. Watershed CN's were calculated to analyze the effects of the density of trees and soil cover types on direct runoff. According to the results, the density of trees had a little effect while soil cover types had a large effect on CN, From the comparison of estimated runoffs from CN method with observed runoffs, detailed soil cover map provides improved results.

The aim of this study was to collect the basic data for effective creation and management of hilly pasture. The investigation of flora and vegetation was conducted at 59 $relev\acute{e}s$ in hilly pasture of Daegwallyeong from 2014 to 2016. The vascular plants of the hilly pasture were 121 listed taxa which contain 38 families, 90 genera, 104 species, 13 varieties, and 12 subspecies. The biological type of the hilly pasture was determined as the $Th-D_4-R_5-e$ type. Twelve taxa were of naturalized plants composed of 5 families, 9 genera, 12 species. The urbanization index and the naturalized index were 3.7% and 9.9%, respectively. The vegetation types in the hilly pasture were classified into the following 3 communities: the Spiraea miyabei-Spiraea salicifolia community, the Persicaria thunbergii community, and the Agrostis alba-Phleum pratense community. The Agrostis alba-Phleum pratense community was classified into the following 5 subcommunities: the Poa pratensis subcommunity, the Artemisia princeps subcommunity, the Festuca ovina subcommunity, the Rumex acetosella subcommunity, and the typical subcommunity. Two factors (slope and EC) had the strongest impact on plant community distribution. Especially, the steep sloping sites (over $40^{\circ}$) did not play a crucial role in maintaining adequate pasture because of the invasion and establishment of shrubs.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of existing vegetation on seedling establishment and herbage production of oversown grasses in the Pinus rigida forest. The dominant existing vegetations were Miscanthus sinensis, Festuca ovina, and Lycopodium serratum. In establishment year, seedling stands and herbage production were not affected in Miscanthus sinensis and Festuca ovina, while in Lycopodium serratum it was affected relatively seriously. The pattern of sown species response to the existing vegetations was trend to toward simplified two or three species as Dactylis glomerata, Lolium perenne, and Trifolium repens to advancing the time. Among sown species, Dactylis glomerata was a major dominant species in all existing vegetation area. The content of sown pasture grasses in the sward increased markedly, while the existing vegetations before seeding seriously decreased to advancing the cutting time. The above results shown that the improvement of forest pasture with a surface seeding was better in Miscanthus sinensis and Festuca ovina, but in Lycopodium serratum was found very difficult to improvement of pasture without surface treatment, also establishment method must favor the low herbage production potential.

The purposes of this study were to investigate vegetation structure and to present management plan of mountain type green space in Kangwhado, Inchon. The actual vegetation in survey sites(11,331ha) was divided into 19 community types. It was consisted of secondary forest(92.32%) which was Quercus acutissima, Pinus densiflora-Q. acutissima, and Q. mongolica community so on. Artificial planting forest area, such as Robinia pseudoacacia and Pinus rigida forest and others, was 5.40%(612ha) and it was less than cases in other cities in the Metropolitan area. According to the classification by TWINSPAN, 57 survey plots were divided into seven community types; P rigida(community A), Q. acutissima(community B) P. densiflora-Q. acutissima(community C), Q. acutissima-P. densiflora (community D), P. densiflora-Carpinus laxiflora-Q. serrata-Q. acutissima(community E), Q. serrata-Q. mongolica(community F), and Zelkova serrata-Acer mono(community G). From this result, ecological succession trend of vegetation in this area seems to be change from P. densiflora forest through Q. acutissima forest to Q. mongolica, Q. serrata, and C. laxiflora forest. It was similar to the ordinary successional trend of temperate deciduous forest in middle area, Korea. In addition, this study area was showed acid soil(pH 4.17). Therefore, there is a need for managing the soil environment for effective vegetation management.

임업에서 육림(育林)은 기르고자 하는 수종과 경쟁하는 잡초목과의 싸움이라고 할 수 있다. 대개 가치있는 수종은 초기생장이 느리고, 제거 대상이 되는 잡초나 관목및 활엽수의 맹아등은 초기 생장속도가 아주 빠르고 생존력이 강하기 때문에 방치하는 경우 조림목은 피압되어 고사하게 된다. 현재 여러가지 사회적인 여건에 의하여 인력작업이 어려운 시점에서 제초제의 활용은 이러한 문제를 해결할 수 있는 가장 효과적인 방법이라고 할 수 있다. 그러나 제초제의 사용은 세심한 주의가 필요하다. 제초제의 잘못 사용은 효율적인 작업성과를 얻지 못할 뿐만 아니라 오히려 기르고자 하는 나무를 손상할 수 있으며 대면적에 대한 과다한 사용은 산지의 황폐나 또는 자연생태계에 큰 영향을 줄수도 있다. 이러한 점에서 앞으로 제초제의 산지 적용에 대한 폭넓은 연구와 검토가 이루어져야 하겠다. 또한 여기서 소개하는 몇가지 제초제에 대하여도 사용할 때는 약제의 특성에 대한 충분한 지식을 가지고 대상지의 식생이나 입지조건에 대한 면밀한 조사가 이루어진 후에 사용하여야 할 것이다.

현재 북한 토지피복 특성 중의 하나인 과도한 산지의 농지로의 전용은 홍수 등 자연재해를 일으키는 원인이 되고 있지만 북한에 대한 참조자료의 부족으로 피해규모나 상황에 대한 이해가 부족하다. 본 연구는 북한 양강도 산간지역을 대상으로 개간농지와 산림의 토지피복특성을 가을시기(2005 년 10 월 25 일) Quickbird (<0.6m) 위성영상의 육안분석과 분광특성을 이용하여 정확한 토지피복분류에의 기초 정보를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 토지피복 유형별 Training area 의 ROI(Region of Interest)의 면적은 2500pixel 로 하였고, 이것을 다시 .shp 파일로 변환하여 GoogleEarth 에서 표고 및 경사 등 보다 자세한 지형지물을 확인하였다. Quickbird 영상의 NDVI 분석을 통해 0.2 정도에서 식생과 농경지로 구분하는 임계값(Threshold)을 추정할 수 있었지만 늦게까지 추수를 끝내지 않은 농작물이나 이모작 농작물의 경우는 산림과 혼재되어 나타나고 있었다. 또한, 산림의 북사면은 수역 다음으로 낮은 NDVI 값을 나타내어 지형의 영향이 나타나고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Considering the hydrological los components such as evapotranspiration, interception, surface storage and infiltration, a rainfall excess model for forest watersheds is derived. The Morton model is adopted to estimate the evapotranspration under the wetted environmental conditions. Canopy effects and ground cover interception storage rates are used to determine the net rainfall rates arrived on the surface soil. The infiltration capacity on the permeable surface is estimated from the revised Green-Ampt model derived for the natural unsteady rainfall events. The rainfall excess model derived is applied with the data from Jangpyung watershed, one of the representative watersheds of IHP. Parameters which are calibrated with the data from ten storms, the hydrometeorological, land use and soil informations, and other researchers' papers are presented.
