본 연구에서는 과거 홍수 피해가 빈번히 발생 하였던 김해 화포천 유역의 홍수 위험도를 산정하고 이를 통해 천변 저류지의 기능인 홍수조절과 생태적인 기능을 검토하고 제시하고자 한다. 화포천의 경우 과거 홍수에 취약한 지역으로 화포천의 수위가 낙동강 본류의 수위보다 낮아 내수배제의 방식으로 홍수를 대비하여 왔다. 하지만 최근 늘어난 집중호우와 이상기후 등으로 배수 용량 증설과 제방고 상승과 같은 구조적인 방법을 통해 대비를 하고 있으나 많은 문제점을 가지고 있어 잠재적인 피해위험에 노출되어 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 김해시 화포천 유역을 연구대상 유역으로 하여 내수배제의 유역에서 천변저류지 설치를 고려할 경우 어떠한 문제점이 있으며, 위치에 따라 수문학적으로 어떠한 효과가 다르게 나타나는지 분석하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 우선 과거 홍수 피해가 빈번히 발생 하였던 김해 화포천 유역의 홍수 위험도를 산정하였으며, 이를 방어하기 위한 천변 저류지 설치 시나리오를 설정하고 각 경우에 따른 홍수조절특성을 분석하여 화포천과 같이 내수배제 하천에서 홍수방어를 위해 고려해야 할 조건들을 검토하였다.

This study classified the types of major forest vegetation and analyzed the syngeographical characteristics of the vegetation in the Mt. Deokhang with exhumed lime rocks. The forest vegetation on the ridge of Mt. Deokhang was classified into 1 community group, 3 communities, 2 groups, and 2 subgroups, 5 types in total. The syngeographical form of Deokhangsan fully exhibited the topographical peculiarity, proximity to subalpine, and limestone zone. In addition, Carex ciliato-marginata, Carex humilis var. nana, and so forth which appear as species with high consistency in the well-drained semiarid zone represent the soil environment of the lime stone area and northern plants such as Carex ussuriensis and Asplenium ruta-muraria represent the characteristics of the vegetation in alpestrine in close proximity. Moreover, the Carpinus turczaninowii in the area appears to show the characteristics of migratory vegetation due to the peculiarity of the habitat. The syngeographical characteristics of this study area show both the characteristics of the habitat and phytogeographic characteristics. Furthermore, they are expected to contribute to the diversity in community and habitat form in Korean peninsula in terms of vegetation science.

We carried out this study to identify the vegetation structure of Abies nephrolepis Maxim. in the southern region of Gangwon-do. We conducted field investigations in 192 stands (400 m²). We analyzed the importance, value, and species diversity of the stands after classifying community type using the methods of the Z-M School of Phytosociology and two-way indicator species analysis (TWINSPAN). We classified the stand structure of A. nephrolepis into th e A. nephrolepis-Acer pseudosieboldianum community, We classified the A. nephrolepis-Dryopteris crassirhizoma community, as an A. nephrolepis typical community. We identified A. nephrolepis, Quercus mongolica, Betula ermanii, Sorbus commixta, Tilia amurensis, and Acer pseudosieboldianum as having high importance value.

In order to evaluate the relationship of between the contents of inorganic elements in shellfish and surface sediments, we measured the concentration of inorganic elements (As, Ca, Cd, Cr, Fe, Hg, Li, Mn, Ni, P, Pb, Zn) in various shellfish and surface sediments of research area. The enrichment factor (EF) and the index of accumulation rate (Igeo) of the metals showed that the research areas can be classified as moderately polluted, or unpolluted. And also we measured the geochemical characteristics of surface sediments(grain size, chemical oxygen demand (COD), ignition loss (IL) and acid volatile sulfide (AVS). The grain sizes for research areas of surface sediment were similar the ratio of silt and clay in comparison with other sites. The COD and IL in surface sediment ranged from 5.41 to 14.06 mg/g. d.w. (mean $8.78{\pm}3.16$ mg/g d.w.) and from 0.92 to 3.17% (mean $2.08{\pm}0.86%$), respectively. Siginificant differences in metal concentrations also were determinated in the shellfish tissue among the different sites. However, except for metals(Mn, Zn), which showed some elevation of concentrations, the variations in the shellfish tissue were not related to variations in the sediment.

Reviewing the trend of land use in urban cultivated land, the large part of land has been changed into the high-profit cultivated land of green houses or the developing areas. So, its percent of cultivated land in land use comparing to the other types of cultivated land would get far higher. Therefore, this study aims to identify the characteristics of landscape ecological pattern in the cultivated land of green houses and to find its alternatives for management, which would be a basis of regional planning and management in terms of space and time. The cultivated land of green houses, whose its area reaches 19.3ha, in Seoul are mainly dispersed on the south eastern part of Seoul and its area is larger than the other types of cultivated lands. According to the result of shape index analysis, its perimeters were very simple. Also, Analyzing the first three major neighboring land use to the cultivated land of green houses, the most frequent biotope types of neighboring land use to the cultivated land of green houses were that transportation facility represented 60%, forest, 43%, the other types of cultivated land, 36%, and residential area, 33%. The cause why the percent of transportation facility was higher in the neigh-boring land use types was assumed for the production and distribution of crops. On the basis of the result of landscape ecological pattern analysis, the cultivated land would be managed and contributed to enhance biodiversity and urban environment preservation.

We surveyed butterfly community in a rural area of the southwestern part of Korea to investigate the changes of species composition and their abundances between 2001~2002 and 2014. The butterfly survey was conducted at the same site using a line transect method. There was a significant decrease of the numbers of species and individuals between 2001~2002 and 2014. We categorized each species based on six ecological traits: habitat type, habitat breadth, food plant type, food plant breadth, number of generation per year and overwintering stage. The comparison of number of species using these ecological traits showed no difference during the 10-yr time intervals. However, the comparison of number of individuals for the ecological traits showed the significant differences except for one trait, overwintering stage. We could suspect that the decrease of butterflies in the study area was resulted from the habitat change. To investigate the causal factors and the changes of butterfly fauna, we need a long-term monitoring of the local butterfly community.

We carried out an ecological survey for Ceratovacuna japonica, which lives in bamboos, at the experimental field of National Academy of Agricultural Science, Suwon and the several natural fields in Korea from 2010 to 2011. The releasing methods of C. japonica on Pseudosasa japonica was more effective at the brushing-off method than the pining-attached method. The successful rate of releasing was the highest at green house than others such as at outdoor, vinyl green house and in a insects net conditions. The survival limit of C. japonica was closely associated with the lowest temperature ($-10^{\circ}C$) of vegetative limit of P. japonica for over wintering because of two fields of Ilsan lake park and Guri ecological park showed falling down below $-15^{\circ}C$ two times in January. It provides for a reasonable distribution information of C. japonica that is restricted to south of Han River. However, the middle of Korea has rarely fallen down below $-10^{\circ}C$. Therefore, we consider that a successful rearing of C. japonica may be the most suitable in green house condition to overcome winter period.
