Lagoon, attributed to the postglacial sea-level rise, has experienced rapid geomorphological changes due to increasing human impact. This study tried to infer how rapidly increasing human impact during the Holocene affects on geomorphological changes of lagoons and their surroundings, especially on Cheongchoho, Gyeongpoho and Pungho with significant changes in area and shapes. It was confirmed that the period of rapid artificial change commonly began in the 1960s to 1970s and geomorphological landscape rapidly changed since human impact intensified afterward. Intensive development not only affected on depth, area and shape changes, but also had significant impacts on water environment and biodiversity, attributed to disturbed flow between freshwater and seawater due to dredging and the installation of artificial structures. Lastly, various types of human impact were observed to be complexly interrelated, which seems to be associated with the geomorphologic process influenced by both terrestrial and marine environments. It is thought to be the result of complex interactions between humans who develop and utilize the terrain and changes in environmental conditions.

우리나라는 성능기반항행(PBN)으로 전환하기 위한 단계적 PBN 이행계획을 2010년에 수립하고 로드맵에 따른 새로운 비행절차를 개발 중에 있다. PBN 비행절차에는 GNSS, DME, INS 등의 항법시스템이 활용되는 것으로 되어있다. 그 중에서 GNSS를 이용한 PBN 업무제공이 중심을 이루고 있는 실정이다. 그러나 위성항법신호의 인위적, 자연적 간섭에 의한 취약성이 발견됨에 따라 세계 각국은 다양한 대안항법 기술을 연구하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 GNSS 신호가 가용하지 않을 경우 기존의 항행시스템으로 지속적인 PBN 운항이 가능한지를 검토해 보고, 필요시 활용할 수 있는 적절한 대안항법을 논의하고자 한다.

A phytosociological survey carried out using the Z.-M. School’s methodology and system of numerical-classification analyses, this study sought to classify the syntaxa of forest vegetation on Mt. Byeokbang and to collect basic data on the transitional zones of the southern Korean peninsula’s coastal region. The syntaxa were classified into three physiognomic types and nine communities, including (1) evergreen coniferous forests (Eurya japonica-Pinus thunbergii community and Ardisia japonica-Pinus densiflora community), (2) summer-green, broad-leaved forests (Chloranthus japonicus-Quercus serrate community, Syneilesis palmata-Quercus mongolica community, Quercus acutissima community, Carpinus turczaninovii var. coreana community, Fraxinus siebolidiana-Quercus dentate community, and Deutzia glabrata-Lindera erythrocarpa community), and (3) artificial afforestation (Alnus firma afforestation). The Chloranthus japonicus-Quercus serrata community, Syneilesis palmata-Quercus mongolica community, Fraxinus siebolidiana-Quercus dentata community, Carpinus turczaninovii var. coreana, community and Deutzia glabrata-Lindera erythrocarpa community were closely evaluated for national vegetation naturalness. It was confirmed that the Carpinus turczaninovii var. coreana community was endemic to Korea. Most syntaxa were defined as a secondary forestation due to various human activities (e.g., forest fires, logging, digging, climbing, etc.). The results of a canonical-correspondence analysis (CCA) showed that human activities, altitude, humus depth, rock cover ratio, slope, etc. were the main ecological factors determining the classified plant communities’ distribution patterns.

연안표사는 해안의 정선이 후퇴해 침식이 심각해지는 한편, 항만·어항에서는 토사가 퇴적되어 선박이나 어선의 항로나 정박지 매몰로 선박의 항행 및 어업 활동에 지장을 초래하며 하천 하구부에서는 하구 폐쇄로 치수상의 문제점 등이 발생한다. 항만과 어항 관리자는 항로나 정박지의 매몰 대책에 대한 검토와 해안 관리자는 해안 보전 대책에 초점을 맞춰 제각기 목적을 위한 대책 검토를 수행하고 있다. 이처럼 매년 적지 않은 비용이 소요됨에도 불구하고 뚜렷하고 효과적인 대책 없이 연안에 인위적인 변화를 발생시켜 어디에선 모래가 퇴적되고 그 영향에 따라 또 다른 곳에서는 침식되는 악순환이 반복되고 있다. 연안침식 방지를 위한 대책을 구축하기 위해서는 어느 한 곳에 중점적인 대책이 아닌 표사계 전체의 관점에서 상호 간의 간섭 효과를 고려한 통합적인 관점으로부터 대책을 강구해야 할 것이다. 연안지역에서의 표사수지는 산지, 댐, 하천, 해안 등 각각의 영역으로부터 유입 및 유출에 따라 안정된 해안이 조성된다. 하지만 환경적 및 인위적 변화에 따라 안정된 표사수지는 파괴되며 이 영향에 따라 표사의 이동이 발생한다. 지금까지의 토사관리는 각각의 영역에서 재해저감 및 토사관리를 위한 여러 대책의 효과가 나타나고 있으나 통합적인 토사관리에 있어 상호간의 피드백이 단절되어 연안역에서 발생하는 침식에 대한 정확한 원인 규명에 많은 어려움과 문제점이 발생하고 있다. 이처럼 통합적인 연안침식 관리를 위해서는 연안역으로 유입되는 토사의 이동 메커니즘 규명이 매우 중요하며 이를 바탕으로 정확한 유사량 산정을 통해 적절한 대책을 마련할 수 있다. 또한, 지역적 특징이 강한 우리나라에서는 통합적인 연안관리를 위한 구체적인 방안 검토가 이루어지고 있지 않지만, 일본에서는 지속적인 관측과 모니터링 조사를 통해 체계적인 관리를 수행하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 일본에서 진행 중인 통합적인 토사관리 가이드라인에 따른 토사관리의 구체적인 방법과 그에 따른 정선변화 및 표수사지 체계를 산정하였다.

하천은 자연의 현상 또는 인위적인 작용에 대해 끊임없는 반응과 응답의 과정을 통하여 복잡한 형태의 안정화를 이루고 있다. 하지만 인간은 경제적인 논리와 편의성 측면등의 이유로 하천에 대해 인위적인 간섭이 지속적으로 이루어져 왔다. 이는 하천이 본래 가지고 있던 자연적인 하도 특성의 급격한 변화를 초래하였다. 이러한 영향으로 인한 많은 변화들 중, 하도 내 수역이 식생으로 천이가 진행되면서 최종적으로 육지화되는 육역화 현상은 수리학적 문제 및 환경생태적 측면에서 큰 문제를 발생시킬 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 하도육역화를 제어하기 위해 하도 내 친환경적인 육역화 관리기법을 개발하고 이에 대한 적용성을 수리모형실험을 통해 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서 제시한 친환경적인 육역화 관리기법은 자연적인 배수효과를 이용 하였다. 이러한 친환경적인 육역화관리기법은 인공하도가 가지고 있는 하도와 고수부지의 수문학적 및 생태학적인 단절을 해소하였으며, 이를 물골 공법이라 명명하였다. 본 수리모형실험은 물골의 형상을 제시하기 위하여 하폭에 따라 물골크기를 무차원화 하였다. 또한 유사 제어 검증을 수행하기 위한 실험은 물골의 폭, 높이, 주기 및 가속수로 폭을 실험변수로 고려하였다. 물골 모형의 기본적인 흐름특성 분석을 위해 유속 및 수위를 측정한 결과 유속 및 수심은 하류를 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 유사 제어 효과 검증을 위해 소류력 및 마찰속도를 산정하여 도시하였으며, 이는 세굴 및 퇴적의 현상이 물골 주기에 따라 반복적으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 수위하강시 물골의 형상에 따라 흐름이 원활하게 배제되어 고수부지에 유사퇴적 방지 효과가 있을 것으로 판단되며, 물골공법이 친환적인 육역화 관리기법으로 활용가능성이 있는 것으로 기대된다. 향후 보다 상세한 수리모형실험이 수행된다면, 물골 공법 설계 및 현장적용을 위한 기초자료를 확보 할 수 있을 것이다.

This study was conducted to investigate the impact of the anthropogenic factors affecting distribution of the Red-crowned Crane and White-naped Crane wintering in Cheorwon, Korea. Especially, it was investigated that the impact power and its range of the anthropogenic effect to the feeding flock density in cranes due to the paved road, residential area, military facilities and greenhouse density. The Red-crowned Crane and the White-naped Crane showed the similar preference and sensitivity against anthropogenic factors, because correlation of feeding flock density of the Red-crowned Crane and White-naped Crane was similar in the same site. The feeding flock density of the cranes near the residential area was lower than that of area far from the area, and tended to increase within 2.5 km distance. The increasing tendencies of feeding flock density from military facilities and high traffic volume road were similar, but the density in military facilities increased within 0.8 km, and the density from high traffic volume road increased within 2 km. This results suggested that military facilities and the road with high traffic volume made significant influence on foraging densities to the certain range. As the distance from the road with low traffic volume increased, feeding flock density tended to decrease. The area near the low traffic volume road had high feeding flock density because remaining rice grains were preserved by intermittent disturbances in that area. If the density of greenhouse is lower than $40/km^2$, feeding flock density in the low greenhouses density area was higher than high greenhouses density area. However, there was no difference in the feeding flock density if the density of the green houses is higher than $40/km^2$.

Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of intertidal flat can be widely used not only for scientific fields, coastal management, fisheries, ocean safety, military, but also for understanding natural and artificial topographic changes of the tidal flat. In this study, we generated DEM of the Ganghwado southern intertidal flat, the largest tidal flat in the west coast of the Korean Peninsula, using waterline method and interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR). Constructed DEM which applied waterline method to the Landsat-5 TM and Landsat-7 ETM+ images closely expresses overall topographic relief of tidal flat. We found that the accuracy was determined by the number of waterlines which reflect various tidal conditions. The application of InSAR to the ERS-1/2 and ENVISAT images showed that only ERS-1/2 tandem pairs successfully generated DEM in the part of northern Yeongjongdo, but construction of DEM in the other areas was difficult due to the low coherence caused by a lot of surface remnant waters. In the near future, Kompsat-2 will provide satellite images having multi-spectral and high spatial resolution within a relatively short period at different sea levels. Application of waterline method to these images will help us construct a high precision tidal flat DEM. Also, we should develop DEM generation method using single-pass microwave satellite images.

In this study, we have used newly developed dual-beam shearography which is based on laser speckle that includes various information about an object. Among the several shearing techniques, we used Michelson shearing interference technique which is the most powerful. Acrylate plate was used as a sample, which has inner defects and low thermal conductivity. Michelson shearing interferometer was used for obtaining speckle fringes. We also used phase shifting technique to get a phase map. Using single beam illumination, we could obtain mixture of deformation components of both in-plane and out-of-plane. In order to separate the two components, we have used dual-beam shearography technique. We have obtained a speckle pattern of both before and after deformation. Through LS filtering and unwrapping processes, we could find a position and a shape of the inner defects easily. Deformation of the acrylate plate due to thermal heating has occurred mainly in z-direction(out-of-plane) because it has low thermal conductivity. The acrylate plate was deformed only at the restricted area where the electrical heat applied.

Many-sided approach methods are being demanded to solve environmental problems in urban areas. One of these methods will be to manage forests scattered in urban areas efficiently. This paper is to grasp the change of land use and landscape indices in Mt. Ap, Daegu, and to analyze the change of landscape structure. Mt. Ap is near Daegu Metropolitan, so under unnatural interferences of human activity persistently. The results of above analysis run as follows: First, the north of the case area is connected to forest, and keeps stable equilibrium ecologically, while the other parts of it suffer from rural exodus and side effects of urbanization which has been completed since 1980. Second, according to the area-rate change of each landscape element, a cultivated areas has been converted into urban one, especially Pinus densiflora forests and paddy fields into mixed forests and urban areas. Finally, most of plantations have been converted into deciduous forests and mixed forests in failure of adaption of plants in burned areas rather than owing to factitious interference.

Wetlands are vulnerable to biological invasion by alien species, because they function as sinks that accumulate excess water, sediments, nutrients, and other contaminants from the surrounding watersheds by disturbance. In this study, to understand the status and characteristics of the alien plants based on the type of wetlands, we classified 24 ecologically outstanding wetlands and analyzed the status of alien flora. A total of 130 alien plants were found in the wetlands, accounting for 11% of the total plant species. Among them, the Asteraceae species was the most diverse, with 40 species. Erigeron annuus and Oenothera ordorata had the highest frequency of occurrence. The species richness of alien plants in the riverine and lacustrine wetlands (average: 30 species) was higher than that in the mountainous palustrine wetlands (average: 10 species). The same results were found in the naturalization index, urbanization index, and ratio of annuals and biennials, which indicate the degree of artificial interference. In the cluster analysis, the riverine and lacustrine wetlands were combined, and only the mountainous palustrine wetlands were separated. The number of alien plants is remarkably low in the mountainous palustrine wetlands, and it is considered to be the influence of Erigeron strigosus, Symphytum officinale, and Bilderdykia convolvulus, not found in the other types of wetlands. In particular, invasive alien plants such as Aster pilosus, Ambrosia trifida, Sicyos angulatus, Ambrosia artemisiifolia var. elatior were found intensively in the riverine wetlands. Therefore, it is considered that a methodical management is urgently required considering the dispersal of alien plants in the riverine and lacustrine wetlands with high artificial interference.
