대규모 연안개발은 연안지형의 변화와 함께 다양한 식물상의 변화를 만드는 원인이 되고 있다. 때문에 시화방조제， 새만금방조제， 남양만 방조제 등의 대규모 방조제 공사 이후에 연안갯벌에서 나타나는 식물상의 변화를 관측하는 것은 연안습지환경의 변화를 분석하는 중요한 척도가 된다. 본 연구에서는 아리랑 2호 의 고해상도 자료를 바탕으로 연안습지의 지형변화에 따라 나타나는 생물상의 식생지수를 분석하고 이들의 시-공간적변화가 연안지형의 특성과 공간규모의 대칭적 특성을 나타내고 있음을 제시하였다. 특히，중급해상도에 의해 분석되었던 식생지수를 고해상도 위성관측 자료와 현장조사 자료를 비교하여 이를 검증하였다.

A wetland is an ecosystem which has high species diversity, rich nutritional substances and high productivity. In this study we used the HGM(Hydrogeomorphic) approach among various evaluation models for the assessment of the Hwapo riverine wetland function. HGM is a method which estimates the functional index of a study wetland by comparing it with a reference wetland. In this study the Woopo wetland which is registered in the Ramsar Convention was selected as a reference wetland to assess the functional index of the Hwapo wetland. As the results, we obtained the functional index values over 0.6 for most indices of the Hwapo riverine wetland. Therefore we found that the Hwapo riverine wetland shows relatively high functional index values comparing with the Woopo wetland and it has valuable hydrological, biochemical, plant habitat, and animal habitat functions.

This study analyzed the disturbance process of river wetlands based on modern and contemporary maps and aerial photographs, and analyzed land cover and NDVI changes in the hydro-ecological impact zone around the Wangjin District. A stable sandbar was formed near Wangjinnaru and was naturally connected to the agricultural land within inland, but after the sandbar and river wetland were destroyed due to heavy floods, embankment construction, land readjustment, and comprehensive river management, artificial replaced wetlands and ecological parks were created, and sandbars in the form of river island were restored again. The change in land cover in the hydro-ecological impact zone showed that rice paddies and fields in agricultural areas decreased from 36.3% in 2013 to 22.9% in 2022, with the largest change in area to 814,476m². It was confirmed that the land cover was undergoing vegetation over time. Since the vegetation condition is good, a healthy food chain is formed in the waterfront ecosystem, which can be expected to be biodiversity-positive. Summarizing seasonal changes in the vegetation index, the overall change in the vegetation index was the largest in spring (March), followed by summer (June), and the change in autumn (September) was the smallest except for water. By land use, the overall vegetation index (NDVI) increased, including 39.1% improvement in alternative wetlands, 38.2% improvement in load, 44.3% improvement in ecological parks, 35.6% improvement in agricultural areas, and -8.1% decrease in water.

This study was conducted to investigate the flora and vegetation structure at a 15-year-old artificial wetland for the water purification in Jincheon, Korea. The percentage of species number of obligate wetland plants and facultative wetland plants totaled 40%, whereas that of obligate upland plants and facultative upland plants was 57%. This result showed that the artificial wetland in the study experienced terrestrialization. The number of annual and biennial plants that are pioneer vegetation in a successional stage was lower than that of perennial herbs as a result of the long-term stabilization of vegetation. From the results of DCA (detrended correspondence analysis), water depth played an important role on the classification of vegetation structure in an old artificial wetland. Species diversity was higher in the terrestrialized plant communities such as Iris pseudacorus and Aster koraiensis than in any other wetland communities. Plant communities could be classified according to the wetland indices; obligate upland for A. koraiensis community, facultative wetlands for Carex dispalata var. dispalata and I. pseudacorus community, and obligate wetlands for Nymphoides peltata, Nymphaea tetragona, Phragmites communis, Potamogeton maackianus, and Typha angustifolia community. In conclusion, this result suggests that wetland vegetation should be maintained against terrestrialization through the proper management of sedimentation and hydrological regime in an artificial wetland.

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.

기후변화 대응을 위한 탄소 중립의 중요성이 대두되는 요즘, 생태계의 가장 큰 메탄 저장소로서 지구의 탄소 순환에 주요한 영향을 미치는 습지에 대한 이해는 필수적이다. 전지구 지면 모델인 Community Land Model(CLM)에 Functionally Assembled Terrestial Ecosystem Simulator(FATES) 외부 모듈을 함께 구동한 지면 생태계 모델 CLM-FATES는 지면 heterogeneity와 다양한 식생 종류를 고려하여 에너지 플럭스, 토양 수문, 생화학적 과정 등을 모의함으로써 탄소 동태 변화를 포함한 장기적 생태계 동태 변화 모의를 가능하게 한다. 본 연구는 CLM-FATES 모델을 미국 캘리포니아주 Mayberry Wetland (US-Myb)와 Twitchell East End Wetland (US-Tw4)에 적용하였다. 모델의 대기 입력 자료로는 FLUXNET-CH4에서 제공하는 에디 공분산 기반 플럭스 관측 자료를 사용하였다. 기존 CLM-FATES 모델은 토양이 장기간 포화 혹은 침수되어 지표 위 혹은 지표면 가까이 발달한 지하수면을 가지고 있는 습지의 수문학적 특성을 잘 반영하지 못해 정밀한 습지 생태계 동태 변화 모의에 한계를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CLM-FATES를 통한 보다 정확한 습지 생태계 모의를 위해 모델 내 토양 수문 관련 모듈을 수정하여 모델이 습지의 수문학적 특성을 반영할 수 있도록 하였다. 모델 구동 결과 도출한 잠열, 총일차생산량(Gross Primary Production: GPP)과 순생태계생산량(Net Ecosystem Production, NEP) 플럭스, 메탄 플럭스, 엽면적지수(Leaf Area Index; LAI)와 지표수 높이에 대해 관측값 대비 RMSE 및 R² 값을 계산하여 모의 결과의 적절성을 분석하였다. 이러한 모델 개선 경험을 바탕으로 추후 우리나라 습지 사이트에 모델을 적용하여 습지 탄소 동태 예측에 활용할 계획이다.

전 세계적으로 인공습지는 도시화, 기후변화 및 생활수준 향상으로 인한 홍수와 가뭄, 하천생태계 변화, 수질오염과 같은 환경문제의 해결방안으로 제시되고 있다. 이에 따라 국내에서도 여러 목적과 형태의 인공습지가 조성되고 있다. 인공습지의 경우 특정 기능을 목적으로 하여 조성하더라도 인공적 생태계가 조성되므로 복합적 기능을 갖게 된다. 하지만 현재까지의 인공습지 조성 효과에 관한 연구는 한가지 기능에만 초점을 맞추어서 실제 인공습지 조성의 가치가 저평가되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 하천변 인공습지 조성에 따른 여러 효과 중 가장 주가 되는 홍수저감 및 수질개선 기능에 대한 효과를 분석하고 이에 따른 편익을 산정하였다. 먼저 인공습지의 적용 대상 유역을 선정하고 유역 내에 입지를 결정하여 이에 맞는 인공습지를 설계 및 적용하였다. 인공습지 조성에 따른 홍수저감 효과 및 수질개선효과를 각각 분석하였다. 분석 결과에 대해 MD-FDA를 통해 홍수피해액을 산정하였고 대체비용법을 통하여 동일한 수질개선 효과를 갖는 하수처리시설의 하수처리비 및 운영관리비에 해당하는 수질개선 편익을 산정하였다. 본 연구를 통해 인공습지의 홍수저감 효과뿐만 아니라 수질개선 효과를 확인하였으며 정량적인 분석방법을 통해 두 가지 기능에 대한 효과를 분석하여 보았다. 또한 산정된 홍수저감 및 수질개선 효과를 경제적 가치로 환산하여 보다 객관적인 지표로 나타내었다. 본 인공습지 조성에 따른 종합적 편익 산정 연구 결과는 다목적의 인공습지를 적재적소에 적용하는데 기여할 것이다. 추후 생태적 기능, 레크레이션 기능 등에 따른 기타 편익 산정 방법론 조사를 통해 각 기능의 편익을 추가한다면 인공습지 조성에 따른 편익을 종합적으로 고려할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 또한 인공습지 조성의 소요사업비 및 유지관리비를 산정하여 인공습지 조성에 대한 경제성분석을 한다면, 실제 인공습지 조성 사업 시 사업의 타당성을 평가하는 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study aims to classify the plant communities of the Gudam wetland, a riparian wetland in Nakdong River basin, and to identify the characteristics of the communities according to the veritical structure to prepare management plan. In the Gudam wetland, a total of 19 plant communities were found through physiognomical vegetation, and were analyzed by dividing into tree dominant community, shrub dominant community, and herbaceous dominant community according to the vertical structure. When examining the results of the community characteristics analysis, the species diversity index was the highest in the tree dominant communities but there was concern about a decrease in species diversity due to the influx of exotic plants such as Sicyos angulatus. The shrub dominant community tended to have a biased species diversity index on shrub plants. The herbaceous dominant communities ware divided into wetland herbaceous communities and dryland herbaceous communities according to the species diversity index, and measures were needed to reduce the species diversity index due to artificial disturbances. The importance value was the highest in the arboreal Salix genus in the tree dominant communities, and the exotic plants such as Amorpha fruticosa were the highest in the shrub dominant communities. In the herbaceous dominant communities, wetland herbaceous plants such as Phragmites japonicus were high. As a result of the analysis according to ordination the tree dominant communities and shrub dominant communities were differentiated by exotic plant factors, and the herbaceous dominant communities were differentiated by hierarchy number and slope.

Drought is an natural phenomenon which effects greatly on our society. It has various time scale and it is difficult to define the beginning and the end. So we can't aware it quickly and the damage of drought become severe. To cope with these problems, it needs to construct drought monitoring system. And it is required that the definition of drought which is objective and can be applied widely and proper drought index for drought monitoring. Meteorology and hydrology have developed drought index for drought monitoring. There are many attempt to interpret the drought using NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) or LST(Land Surface Temperature) in remote sensing. In this study, drought index and precipitation is used to find drought severity of last ten years in South Korea. NDVI and VCI is applied to perceive the state of drought. Finally, the possibility of drought monitoring and evaluating drought depth is estimated by analyzing the correlation between vegetation Index and drought index.

The present study has monitored the changes in the biodiversity of Dunchon-Dong ecological and landscape conservation area after the restoration of the wetland, identified and analyzed the threats to the ecosystem, and presented a management plan accordingly. In this area which was forests and rice paddies in the past, apartment reconstruction is currently underway, with some hinterland forests and wetlands remaining. When we look into the change in the floras, the total number of species was 193 in 2000 before the restoration, it decreased from 2004 to 2006, and as of 2019, it was 149, showing an increasing trend. The result of comparing the species that emerged before and after the restoration showed an increase in Cyperaceae herbs such as Carex maximowiczii and Carex dispalata growing in wetland areas within forests and Schoenoplectiella juncoides and Schoenoplectus tabernaemontani growing in areas within wetlands where shallow water is maintained. As a result of analyzing the change in the area ratio of each type of extant vegetation, the wetland native herbs formed the power at the highest ratio after the restoration. The change in the power of the wetland native herbs was on an increasing trend until 2007, after which it decreased much in 2010 and then gradually increased, showing values of 26.6% in 2000, 44.6% in 2002, 49.0% in 2005, 53.3% in 2007, 28.7% in 2010, and 37.3% in 2019. The cause of the decrease in 2010 was judged to be due to the vegetation management conducted to secure open water and remove organic matter in freshwater reservoirs. The amphibia which emerged from 2000 to 2019 was a total of 9 species including Hynobius leeshii, Bufo gargarizans, Kaloula borealis, and Rana uenoi. As a result of the changes in the emerging wild birds, the species diversity index before the restoration was 0.9922 in 2000, and the species diversity index after the restoration gradually increased to 1.2449 in 2005, 1.2467 in 2010, and 2.2631 in 2019. The amphibia and wild birds inhibiting in the Dunchon-Dong forest and wetland were judged to have increased through continuous wetland maintenance such as naturalized plant removal management, native plant maintenance, and open water securing management. For the ecosystem preservation management of the Dunchon-Dong ecological and landscape conservation area, it was suggested to minimize the impact of the Dunchon-Dong reconstruction project, reorganize the indiscriminate access roads adjacent to the wetland, and reorganize the main entrance to the wetland. For ecosystem restoration management, systematic restoration and ecological buffer planting were suggested to be carried out at the time of construction fence demolition.
