The main habitats of diving beetles in agricultural ecosystems were identified as ponds, irrigation channels, and reservoirs, where the water system is maintained throughout the year. Four species, Cybister japonicus, Cybister brevis, Hyphydrus japonicus and Noterus angustulus, were selected as biological indicators which can be used to evaluate the healthiness of the agricultural ecosystem. The species number of 4 indicator species, the species number of diving beetle species, and the diversity index were used as factors for environmental evaluation. The evaluation was classified into grades $I{\sim}IV$. The non-fertilizer and non-pesticide agricultural practicing area and the sustainable agricultural practicing area were evaluated as grades $I{\sim}II$, and the general agricultural area to be relatively fine with a grade II. However, the analysis indicated the agricultural areas near a residential area and an industrial complex to be poor with a grade of IV, suggesting that immediate improvement in the agricultural environment is needed.

This research is about the monitoring of people's consciousness on ecosystem change after coastal restoration project in Gangjin Bay. Tidal flat ecosystem of Ganjin Bay was major producing district of short-necked clam in Jeonnam Province. Owing to coastal restoration project (sand gathering and dredging) during 5 years, however, ecosystem was disturbed and harvesting of fish was decreased. Although a few of ark shell and oyster are harvested but drastically decreased. Even aging and depopulation is general situation like other rural regions, life pattern of villages and depopulation in Gangjin Bay was influenced by drastic decreasing of income. As the results of social monitoring, drastic decreasing of fish and shell in Gangjin Bay is significantly concerned with coastal restoration project (sand gathering and dredging) and also with difficulty of fresh-water inflow to coastal bay because of Jangheung Dam. In order to get the detail information on the cause and consequence of ecosystem change in tidal flat, it is necessary to apply the long-term socio-economic monitoring as well as biological and ecosystem monitoring.

Ecosystem service accounting must measure ecosystem supply functions, demand, and the actual service flows that occur between them. In order to measure flows, supply and demand relationships must be defined, and a methodology that can objectify complex connections is needed. Although various studies on ecosystem services have been conducted in Korea, but researches on accounting for ecosystem services are not enough. The purpose of this study is to evaluate flood control ecosystem services by applying the EU methodology studied in the Experimental Ecosystem Account (EEA) of System of Environmental Economy Account (SEEA) and explore ways to introduce ecosystem account. To conduct the study, the ecosystem's runoff retention potential, social and economic demand for flood control, and actual service benefit flows formed from the relationships between them were modeled and quantified on a spatial basis. As a result of calculating the actual flow of flood control ecosystem services, the total domestic service amount was calculated to be 165,595 (ha), and it was confirmed that much of it was concentrated in agricultural land. In order to account for domestic flood control services in the future, key spatial data such as land cover maps must be continuously established and managed, and researches on input data and methodologies applicable to various spatial scopes such as national, regional, and unit watersheds are expected to be necessary.

This study examined the Gangwon Province's current implementation of its elimination of invasive plants and explored a plan to effectively manage invasive plants. The percentage of the distribution of the plants was 39.6% for riverside areas, 23.3% for roadside areas, 12.4% for roadside & riverside areas, and 4.6% for areas around farm land and river banks. To ensure the systematic management of invasive plants, the current study suggests a) developing an invasive plants monitoring and management system; b) reinvigorating the participation of residents, private organizations, and military posts; c) planting of native replacement plants and the conversion of the locations as attractions, and d) nurturing the project for using invasive plants. For policy directions to be pursued based on the results of the study, the following are suggested: a) improving laws and systems regarding invasive plants, b) developing a cooperative system for managing invasive plants, c) implementing the training of civilian professionals, d) implementing the elimination of invasive plants, e) developing replacement plants for cities and counties, f) fostering industries that tap into invasive plants, and g) using the Han River Water System Management Fund for funding and greater efficiency.

This study was conducted to identify the distribution characteristics of small village wetlands in Geumsan County, an inland mountain zone, and comparing with Seocheon County, a coastal plain area with different ecological environment characteristics. Using Arc-GIS (v10.1) the village wetland code was extracted to derive the possible location of the village wetland, and the final distribution of the village was obtained by performing indoor judging work based on satellite images, aerial photographs, topographical maps, Korea Land Information System (KLIS), land use level, land cover degree (division), and land use status by local surveying and indoor analyzing. Although Geumsan County (576.66km2) is more than 60% larger than Seocheon County (358.04km2), 607 villages in Geumsan County and 570 villages in Seocheon County are capable of making similar levels of 106.5% of wetlands, but only a fraction of those in Seocheon County were found to be 67.6%. The density of the village wetlands was much lower than that of Seocheon County, a coastal plain area, because there were many mountainous areas in Geumsan County, and most of the wetlands temporarily created for water supply were removed during the analysis phase of the Jeongsa Image, so the actual wetlands of the village were judged to be only two-thirds different from those of Seocheon County.

Recently, by fast industralization and development without environmental concern, our environment deterioration have being continued rapidly. Therefore, many species is placed on crisis of extinction or was already extincted by habitat destruction. In Minjujisan area, there is a plan to construct the Sport and Leisure Complex by which convert the forest conservancy district to the district of development promotion and district of sighseeing and leisure by Yongdong District. To investigate the avifauna impacts by habitat destruction, bird censuses was carried out before the Sport and Leisure Complex be construct in Minjujisan and Sokgisan area during 4-5 May, 1992 and 16-21 June, 1992. Total 229 birds of 41 species in 23 family of 9 orders were recorded during censuses. Sitta europaea amurensis was the most abundant species and Parus ater amurensis, Phylloscopus borealis xanthodryas, Parus major wladiwostokensis, Parus palustris hellmayri, and Turdus pallidus were dominant species. Accipiter nisus nisosimilis, Accipiter soloenis, and Otus scops stictonotus were found out to the natural monuments in this suvey. Halcyon pileate was observed to a rare bird in this surveyed area. Species diversity of this census was 3.381 which showed slightly higher degree than other surveyed area. The area of Minjujisan, Sokgipong, and Samdopong which have little pollution agent around there and kept away from mankind were approved the heavy avifauna area which have so many bird species. Biogeographically, the Taebaek Mountains was connected with the Sobaek Mountains through this area, therefore it was significant that many animal species could be move to each mountains ranges. The construction plan of the Sport and Leisure Complex in Minjujisan area should be restrain with concern about environmentally destruction by the Muju Resort in Dokyusan National Park which connected to that area have master plan to development the ski slopes for the 1997 Universiad with permission by the Ministry of Environment.

산림생태계의 에너지, 물질, 정보의 교환 과정과 그 변화를 이해하려면 먼저 생태계의 구조와 기능이 어떻게 상호작용하는지를 이해해야 한다. 생태계의 기능은 한, 두 가지의 특징에 의해서만 이루어지는 것이 아니다. 그렇기 때문에 그 기능을 파악하고 적절히 이용하거나 대응하기 위해서는 한 생태계와 주변 환경 전체를 바라볼 수 있는 시스템 사고가 필요하다. 이에 우리는 생태계의 '구조'를 파악함으로써 생태계의 '상태'를 이해하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 Ruddell and Kumar (2009)의 접근법을 따라, 어떻게 한 생태계의 상태를 파악할 수 있는가라는 질문을 광릉활엽수림에 적용하여 답하고자 한다. 즉, 우리는 산림생태계가 열린 복잡계라고 가정하고, 생태계 내에서 다양한 프로세스들 간의 시시각각 변하는 네트워크의 구조가 각 시점의 시스템의 상태를 나타내는 지표가 될 수 있다고 가정하였다. 이 연구에서는 그 구조적 특징을 정량화하여 나타내는데 초점을 맞추었다. 각각의 프로세스를 대표하는 상태 변수들 간의 정보 흐름의 양과 방향, 시간 규모를 계산해냄으로써 네트워크 구조를 파악하고자 하였다. 온대 산악지형 활엽수림인 GDK의 2008년 순생태계교환량(NEE), 총일차생산량(GPP), 생태계호흡량(RE), 현열플럭스(H), 잠열플럭스(LE), 하향단파복사(Rg), 강수량(Precipitation), 기압(Pressure), 기온(T), 포차(VPD)의 시계열 자료를 월별로 나누어 최장 18 시간 규모의 정보 흐름을 계산하였다. 정보 흐름의 구조를 파악하기 위하여 변수들 간의 전이엔트로피(Transfer entropy)와 상호정보(Mutual Information)를 계산하는 방법을 사용하였다. 또한 시계열 자료를 이용함으로써 변수들 간에 정보가 전달되는 시간 규모의 특성을 파악할 수 있었다. 최종적으로, 계산한 정보 흐름을 시각화하여 프로세스 네트워크 구조를 나타내었다. 결과는 월별로 생태계의 정보 흐름의 종류, 방향과 시간 규모, 그에 따른 프로세스 간 상호 작용의 특징 등을 보여준다. 이를 통해 계절적 환경 변화에 따라 시스템의 네트워크 구조와 상태가 어떻게 변화하는지 이해할 수 있을 것이다. 이 연구는 추후 우리 연구실에서 생산한 8 년 자료에 적용함으로써 다양한 날씨 및 기후변화와 환경 변화에 따라 생태계의 구조와 상태가 어떻게 변화하는지 연구하는 시작점이 될 것이다. 이 접근법은 단위나 차원에 무관하게 다양한 종류의 자료에 적용할 수 있는 반면에, 일관성 있게 정의된 시스템의 상태 및 그 상태를 구성하는 주요 하부 시스템들의 네트워크 상태를 이해하는데 이용될 수 있다. 본 연구는 비평형 열역학과 복잡계의 관점에서 바라 본 시스템 사고를 적용하려 하는 여러 연구 분야에 새로운 도전을 촉발할 좋은 선행연구가 될 것이라 기대된다.

We aimed to investigate the macromoth diversity and species composition between two forest types; a small and fragmented agroecosystem(SFA) and a large and continuous forest ecosystem(LCF). We sampled moths twice(in June and August) using ultraviolet light traps employed in eight regions from 2018 to 2019. The results showed a significant difference between the two ecosystems; species richness, abundance and species diversity index (H') were significantly higher in LCF than in SFA. Beta diversity using Chao-Sorensen Raw abundance showed that moth community in SFA was different from that in LCF. The two components of beta diversity showed that the turnover rate was higher in LCF while nestedness was higher in SFA.
