The formation of Sajapyeong Alpine Wetland was influenced by factors of drainage basin and its geology, and fire-shifting cultivation. Sajapycong drainage basin had a narrow outlet, Sijeon-cheon in it flowed relatively slowly. Bedrock in basin was weak to mechanical weathering, many rock detritus were, produced. Deforestation for reclamation using fire accelerated topsoil loss. Thus much sediments was supplied to Sijeon-cheon and deposited in the channel bed, and wetland was formed on channel marginal footslope. In Sajapyeong moor were Gullies formed along road. Because they blocked sediments and throughflow transferring into moor, moor became dry land. In order to prevent this drying, we have, to raise water level of a drain ditch to level of weathered bedrock to transfer throughflow into moor, modify the shape of ditch to be naturally irregular, and construct large boulders step on the Sijeon-cheon bed to prevent from lowering of its bed.

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 reports newly discovered seven forest wetlands in the western part of the Korean Demilitarized Zone-Civilian Control Zone ecoregion. The wetland assessment criteria proposed by National Arboretum were adopted to evaluate four fields: vegetation and landscape, biogeochemical cycle, hydraulics and hydrology, and social-cultural-historical landscape and disturbances. Among seven wetlands located in Gimpo and Paju, five were of the fallow field type and two were of the natural type. A total of 474 plant species were recorded, including nine rare plants, such as the Carex capricornis Meinsh. ex Maxim. Three forest wetlands were sorted into A-grade, three into B-grade, and one into C-grade. Monitoring forest wetlands scattered across the border area ruled by military regulations can be challenging; still, as forest wetlands with high conservation value turned out, further investigations through remote sensing and cooperation by the relevant agencies will be required.

In the Sumeunmulbaengdui Wetland Protected Area of Jeju Island, there exists a unique pond, a so-called 'Ohmi', which is likely to be an oasis supporting the wildlife and escaped-livestock. We exquisitely described the diversity and distribution of plant community of the Ohmi. Despite its small area, six syntaxa were identified: Sphagnum community of peat bog type, Nymphoides coreana community of the floating-leaf limnetic vegetation, Scirpus triangulatus community and Schoenoplectus hotarui community of the littoral zone vegetation, and Deinostema violacea-Eleocharis congesta community and Eriocaulon atrum-miquelianum community of the ephemeral vegetation. A zonal distribution of plant communities along the water depth was recognized. The Sphagnum islets regarded as a typical component of peat bog, in Korea were first described at the center of the Ohmi. We conclude that the Ohmi is a primeval keystone habitat of the Sumeunmulbaengdui intermediate moor with a less oligotrophic ombrotrophic environment.

This study was carried out to examine the changes in vascular flora in the first and second surveys targeting 32 outstanding forest wetlands in Jeonnam area including Gwangju metropolitan city, and based on this, establish a future monitoring system and effectively manage the excellent forest wetlands. The survey investigated the area seasonally every 4-5 years from 2015 to 2021. The change of flora of 32 excellent forest wetlands in Jeollanam-do increased from 103 families, 311 genera, 496 species, 16 subspecies, 38 varieties, 6 varieties, 556 taxa, to 111 families, 362 genera, 599 species, 16 subspecies, 51 varieties, 8 varieties, 674 taxa. Remarkable plants such as Red list and plants endemic to the Korean Peninsula increased also. However, Nepeta cataria and the like are exterminated locally, so an in situ and ex situ conservation strategy must be established. In the case of plants categorized according to wetland preference, the distribution ratio of such wetland plants slightly decreased and the distribution ratio of such terrestrial plants lightly increased for absolute wetland plants. It is necessary to prepare countermeasures for the terrestrialization of forest wetlands and to develop research techniques that can distinguish boundaries. In addition, the forest wetland should be systematically managed and supervised by designating it as a Forest Genetic Resources Reserve that can effectively conserve it.

This study conducted monitoring of flora and vegetation in order to utilize basic data for forest wetland conservation targeting outstanding forest wetlands located in the eastern part of Jeonnam Province. The survey was carried out for a total of 54 times from May 2020 to October 2020, 1-2 times each for each season. The vascular plants of outstanding forest wetland in eastern Jeollanam-do were 93 families, 251 genera, 336 species, 5 subspecies, 47 varieties, 7 forma, and a total of 395 taxa. This was about 8.5% of 4,641 species of vascular plants in Korea Peninsula. A total of 8 taxa and 12 taxa were identified Korea endemic plants and rare plants respectively. A total of 68 taxa and 19 taxa of floristic target plants and invasive alien plants were classified each. the naturalized Index was 4.83% and the urbanized Index was 5.90%. As a result of the analysis by wetland type of the forest wetlands, obligate upland plants were the highest in the forest wetlands in the eastern Jeonnam province (61.4%), with unclassified wetland plants 19.1%, facultative wetland plants 8.2%, and obligate wetland plants 4.6%, facultative upland plants 4.5%, and facultative plants 2.3% were confirmed in the order.
