This study conducted a survey over spring and autumn from 2014 to 2020 to confirm the ecological characteristics of the size of streams and habitats, centering on the ecological landscape conservation area, and a total 256 species of benthic macroinvertebrates in 105 families, 25 orders, 8 classes, and 5 phyla appeared. In terms of appearance species, by region, the rate of appearance of Ephemeroptera and Trichoptera was high in regions consisting of lotic area and the rate of appearance of Coleoptera and Odonata was high in regions consisting of lentic areas. When comparing the population of Ephemeroptera-Plecoptera-Trichoptera (EPT) groups by region, they were classified into three groups: upstream area, mainstream area, and lentic areas, and it was confirmed that the population ratio of EPT changed as it moved from upstream to downstream. As the stream order increased, the number of species and populations increased. The Shredder group (SH) tended to decrease as the size of stream increased(r=0.9925), and the Collector-Filtering (CF) tended to increase as the size of stream increased(r=0.9319). It was confirmed that the Scraper (SC) replaced each other between species with the same ecological status as it went downstream from upstream, and it is thought that the SC did not differ significantly by stream order. In order to maintain a healthy ecosystem in the designation and management of ecological landscape conservation areas, it is necessary to consider ecological factors such as competition and physico-chemistry factors such as water quality and substrate conditions. Therefore, if the competent authority designated survey areas including buffer areas that include streams and physical habitats of various sizes, it will be advantageous to the conservative area and securing more biological resources.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the regional effectiveness of wall-plantings by applying a biotope area ratio when wall-plantings are constructed in high density areas. For this, this study required a sample of the wall-planting's regional plan. Therefore, types of wall-planting were determined and applied to a sample site. Four types of wall-plantings were developed by formative features and functional features. Type "A" had simple and functional features, Type "B" had both mixed and functional features, Type "C" had both simple and landscape features and Type "D" had mixed and landscape features. Jung-gu District in Seoul was chosen as the sample site. Total investigations were performed three times for three months from June to August, 2011. Total green-able walls were located in 498 places with a total length of 8,449m and gross vertical area of $23,754.90m^2$. The classification results of total green-able walls by the four types were Type "A" at $1,936.65m^2$, Type "B" at $5,875.30m^2$, Type "C" at $12,487.85m^2$ and Type "D" at $3,455.10m^2$. This study analyzed how all facade areas of the green-able walls impacted the biotope area ratio at the site. First, the biotope area ratio regarding all the zones in Jung-gu District was defined as the gross biotope area ratio while the biotope area ratio regarding all of the artificial zones was defined as the net biotope area ratio. In the case of the gross biotope area ratio, 17.97% is current ration with a projected increase to 0.10% after wall-planting. In the case of the net biotope area ratio, 4.73% is the current ration with a projected increase to 0.11% after wall-planting. This 0.11% is about 2.28% of 4.73%. This study looks at all wall-plantings that have been constructed throughout a high density area to observe their impact on the improvement of ecological function therein. With consideration of the landscape value of the facade, the regional effectiveness of wall-planting is expected to increase even more.

This study analyzed the characteristics of emergy inputs from environmental sources that are essential in maintaining ecological processes and providing ecosystems services of the tidal flat ecosystems in Korea. Environmental sources provided a total of $4.98{\times}10^{21}sej/yr$ of emergy to the tidal flats of Korea. The emergy inputs from environmental sources were worth 1,141 billion ￦/yr. This is the value of environmental conditions that are the basis of ecosystem services provided by the tidal flat ecosystems. The emergy input per hectare to regional tidal flats decreased along the coastline from northwest to southeast, with the highest input in the Incheon-Gyeonggi area in the central western part of the Korean coast and the lowest input in the Busan area in the southeastern end. This reflects the general distribution pattern of the magnitude of tidal ranges along the Korean coast. There was no a clear-cut relationship between emergy inputs per unit area and fishery production(expressed in emergy quantity) per unit area. However, tidal flats in the west coast with higher emery inputs per unit area produced more fishery products than those in the south coast with lower emergy inputs, suggesting a possibility that the emergy inputs could be used for the rapid evaluation and comparison of the potential for ecosystem service provision by individual tidal flats.

Ecosystem services provide various benefits to human beings, but are considered to be free of cost. To protect ecosystems in an economically sustainable way, several developing countries have adopted a policy known as the Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES) that compensates upstream services with monetary incentives collected from service users. Vietnam is one of the countries that have enacted a nationwide PES policy. However, the policy in Vietnam requires further development in order to evaluate the spatial priority zones based on the quantification of ecosystem services. To obtain a recent and high-quality land cover map, we first classified the land cover in the Da River basin, in northern Vietnam, using Landsat dataset. We then applied a water balance theory and an USLE equation to assess hydrological ecosystem services concerning water supply and sediment retention. Following the assessment, we identified the priority areas for hydrological ecosystem services exclusively for forest environments. We found that the quantity and distribution of services from forests varied, due to the topography, climate, and land cover. According to a quantile distribution, Mt. Phu Luong, Mt. Fansipan, and Hoang Lien National Park were evaluated as high service areas in terms of both water yield and sediment retention. As a result, this assessment method can help construct spatial priority zones concerning ecosystem service distribution, and can also contribute to benefit sharing by indicating which forest and landowners require compensation.

최근 우리나라에서 농업용수의 다원적 기능에 대한 공감대가 형성되고 작물생육에 필요한 관개용수로만 인식되던 농업용수의 개념이 농촌생활환경개선을 포함하는 다양한 지역용수로의 포괄적 개념으로 전환되고 있다. 농업용수는 식량생산 이외의 효용을 위한 다원적 기능을 가지며 농촌지역의 각종 생산활동과 생활조건의 유지개선을 위한 농업용수의 다원적 기능에 관한 관심이 증가하는 추세이다. 농업용수에서 발생하는 회귀수는 유역의 용수공급계획, 하천 유황의 예측, 관개용수 사용량 결정, 하천 건전화 방지, 수생생태계 보호 및 생물 다양성 확보 등 농업용수의 효율적 사용 및 환경생태유지를 위해 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 농업용수 회귀수량은 농업용수 중 하천으로 회귀하는 수량을 의미한다. 본류의 생태 유량 확보에 농업용수 회귀 수량이 기여하고 있으며 본류 하천의 환경 보전 기능을 하고 있다. 또한, 수생태계 보호 및 생물 다양성 확보 등 환경 생태 유지에 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 하지만 농업용수 회귀수량이 하천 수생태에 미치는 영향 분석 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 대사 저수지 유역을 대상으로 농업용수 회귀 수량이 하류 하천 수생태에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 평가하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 회귀 수량은 관개용수량, 배수량, 침투량, 담수심 등 물수지 항목을 논물수지 모형에 적용하여 산정하였으며, 하류 하천의 생태유량 산정을 위해 대사저수지 하류에 위치한 생물측정망 자료를 통해 대표 어종을 선정하였다. PHABSIM 모형을 이용해 모의 대상 지역 특성 자료 및 인근 소하천 생물측정망 자료를 바탕으로 HSI 기반 대표 어종 서식처 환경에서 최적 생태유량을 산정하였다. 이를 통해 추정된 농업용수 회귀 수량에 따른 필요 유량이 어류 서식환경에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 본 연구 결과 대사저수지 하류 하천에서 농업용수 회귀수량이 차지하고 있는 기여도 큰 것으로 분석되었으며, 최적 생태유량과 비교한 결과 농업용수 회귀수량이 수생태(어류)에 미치는 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 농업용수 회귀수량은 하류 하천의 하천유지수량뿐만 아니라 하천 환경생태유지에도 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 알 수 있다.

This study targets the city of Paju, Gyeonggi-do, where many challenges are facing ecological assets management due to the increase in recent development. Using the survey data provided by the National Institute of Ecology in Korea, the study analysed the differences in the local residents' perception of local ecological assets. The Q methodology, which is useful for revealing differences in opinions, was applied to classify the narrative groups, which had different points of view in evaluating each asset. Next, the study compared the differences in perceptions of the vulnerability of ecological assets. As a result of the analysis, the city of Paju was divided into two main narrative groups: a 'Nature Conservation Group' and a 'Heritage Conservation Group'. The Nature Conservation Group wanted to prioritize ecologically valuable assets, such as wetlands, brackish zones, and forests. The Heritage Conservation Group preferred preserving ecological assets having a cultural contexts, such as royal tombs, graves, and the surrounding landscape. Evaluating the ecological assets, the two groups identified 23 ecological sites under threat from development among the 25 ecological sites considered. The Nature Conservation Group noted the importance of sites such as the Sannam Wetlands, Gongneungcheon, Gongneungcheon Brackish Zone, and Simhak Mountain. These were considered to be the most vulnerable ecological assets in the city. The study found differences in the perceived values for each ecological asset by residents. The results can serve as useful data for decision-making on ecological asset management in the city of Paju.

This study was conducted to provide basic data for monitoring the trend of ecosystem change and establishing management plans for wetland protection areas by understanding the status of naturalized plants. In 21 wetland protection areas, 129 taxa, including 10 invasive alien species, were recorded. The naturalized plants appeared mostly as 71 taxa in the Chimsil wetland and were not observed in the Moojechineup and Sumeunmulbaengdui wetlands. Among the naturalized plants, 42 taxa (32.6%) originated from North America. Annual and biennial plants accounted for 68.2% (88 taxa). The frequencies of occurrence of naturalized plants growing in dry secondary grasses such as Erigeron annuus and Trifolium repens were high, and clonal plants that propagated by making stolons and struck roots accounted for 19.4% (25 taxa). The naturalized and urbanization indices showed positive correlations with location factors such as wetland, agricultural land, and used area. However, a negative correlation was found between altitude and forest. Therefore, a management plan that synthetically considers the occurrence frequency and growth characteristics of naturalized plants as well as the locational characteristics of wetland protection areas is required.

우리나라는 최근 도시지역의 광역화로 인해 시가화 지역이 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 이로 인해 증가한 불투수면적은 이수 및 치수 측면에서 다양한 문제를 야기하여 유역의 물순환 체계를 왜곡하고 있다. 더불어 하천의 건천화에 따른 하천 유지유량의 감소 및 공공수역으로 방출되는 오염물질의 증가는 하천의 다양한 환경적, 생태학적 문제를 야기하고 있다. 따라서 최근에는 유역 물순환 관리가 국가 물관리 정책의 핵심 전략으로 부각되고 있으며, 적절한 물순환 관리를 위해서는 물순환 건전성이 취약한 우선관리 유역을 도출하고, 해당 유역을 중심으로 보다 체계적이고 통합적인 유역관리 기술이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유역 물순환에 영향을 미치는 주요 요소들을 기후, 수문, 수질 및 사회·경제적 요인 측면으로 구분하고, Pressure-State-Response (PSR) framework를 적용하여 각 요소 별 주요 평가 지표들을 압력 (Pressure), 상태 (State) 및 반응(Reponse) 요인으로 분류하였다. 또한 전국 소권역 단위에 대하여 각 지표들을 분석하여 기후, 수문, 수질 및 사회·경제적요인 별 물순환 건강성 점수를 산정하였다. 한편, 지역 및 요인별 물순환 건강성 점수를 기반으로 핫스팟 분석 (Hot Spot Analysis)을 수행하여, 통계적으로 유의미한 패턴을 나타내는 지역을 중심으로 우선관리가 필요한 지역을 도출하였다. 본 연구에서 도출한 물순환 건강성 평가 요소별 점수 및 핫스팟 분석 결과는 향후 물순환 우선관리 지역 선정에 있어 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
