Dangsan forests and Rural Community Forests(RCF) have been historical assets for the rural communities of more than 40,000 in Korea and they have provided an identity through the cultural heritage. The Dangsan forests and the RCF are parts of a unique cultural landscape in the rural areas as components of stream landscape. In many cases, the Dangsan forests and the RCF are located close to stream corridors. The objective of this study was to understand the function of the Dangsan forests and the RCF on stream water quality and to evaluate its ecological landscape values. Through the consideration of international concensus and domestic government policy for close-to-nature stream, we could find out that Dangsan forests and RCF's have close relationship with the close-to-nature streams. The water quality of the streams close to the Dangsan forests and the RCF are maintained with local culture. It is also compared to the streams located where Dangsan forests and the RCF are absent. Eight study sites were selected. Water samples were collected at three different locations at each study site. Water samples were analyzed for temperature, pH, total P, total N, dissolved oxygen, EC, BOD, COD and SS. Aquatic invertebrates were observed as water quality indicator species. The results showed that the number of aquatic invertebrate species, GPI, DO, EC, BOD, and SS were significantly improved in stream water due to the presence of the Dangsan forests and the RCF. The role of Dangsan forests and the RCF was evident in the conservation of stream landscape and rural culture as well as in maintaining stream water quality. The management schemes of the streams with Dangsan forests and the RCF's are also suggested.

우리나라는 기상이변에 따른 게릴라성 집중호우의 빈도 및 강우량이 해가 거듭할수록 증가함에 따라 이로 인한 피해지역의 범위 및 피해액이 계속 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 국가 및 각 연구기관들은 전국의 자연유역 및 도시유역에 대해 홍수범람의 예상지역 및 대피지도 작성 등을 통해 재해에 대한 사전 피해예방및 보험제도 등으로 그 피해를 경감하고자 각종 사업 및 연구를 활발히 진행하고 있다. 이러한 연구에 주로 이용되는 것이 지리정보시스템(GIS)으로서, 기존 수작업 과정 등을 통해 소요되는 많은 시간과 비용적 투자를 획기적으로 줄이면서도 보다 정밀도 있는 홍수범람지도를 작성하는데 크게 이바지 하고 있다. 하지만 강력하고 광범위적인 기능의 GIS 프로그램에 대한 이해 및 원시자료의 부족과 이 자료들을 이용한 실제 지형 구축 및 편집 등의 어려움으로 GIS를 이용한 홍수범람해석은 여전히 실무에서 널리 적용되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 실무적 적용성 및 범용성을 고려하여 자연유역이 대부분 포함되는 지방2급 고부천 유역을 대상으로 최근 토목 전반의 평면적 2D설계 개념에서 입체적 3D설계로 변화하는데 중요한 역할을 하고 있는 Autodesk사의 Civil 3D를 이용하여 수치지형도 및 측량데이터 등 다양한 원시자료로부터 실제 지형과 매우 유사한 3D 지형을 구축하고, Civil 3D의 3rd Party 프로그램인 Engineered Efficiency사의 EE HEC-RAS Tool을 이용하여 하천정비 기본계획 및 소하천정비 종합계획 등 실무에서 홍수위 계산에 가장 많이 이용되는 1차원 수치모형인 HEC-RAS와 전 후처리를 연계함으로서 빈도별 홍수위에 따른 홍수범람 수심 및 범람지역 등을 산정하였다. 본 연구는 실무 설계에서 가장 많이 이용하는 Autodesk 프로그램의 적용을 통해 기존 GIS개념 및 프로그램의 이해부족과 편집의 어려움을 해소하여 실무적 홍수범람해석에 시간적, 비용적 효율성을 높이고 기존 수작업의 오류를 보완함으로서 보다 정밀한 홍수범람해석 및 치수경제성 분석에 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

The functions of urban open space, which embraces community revitalization, are diverse. It is the means of public healthcare, learning centers for children, hub of arts and cultural programs, as well as promoter of urban tourism. However, in-depth discourse and research on the topic of urban open spaces has been limited so far. Hence, this study aims to investigate the motivations and satisfaction of visitation based on four representative waterfront open space in Seoul; Cheongyecheon Waterfront, Seoul Forest Park, Seonyudo Park and Banpo Hangang Park. The methods of study are literature review, observation investigation, and questionnaire survey. The findings are analyzed through the Exploratory Factor Analysis, Reliability Analysis, ANOVA Analysis and Regression Analysis by SPSS 18.0. The results of the study are as follows. First, urban waterfront open spaces in Seoul has 5 factors of visitor motivation; community amenity, nature access, cultural and educational assets, aesthetic enjoyment, and lastly means of escape. Second, factors of recognizing urban waterfront open spaces as community amenity and nature access indicate meaningful differences in visitor's perception by spatial characteristics. Third, distances between the destination and the visitor's residence influence significantly their perceived motivation. Close-range visitors perceived nature access as a principal factor, whilst medium to long-range visitors perceived visitation for aesthetic purposes more importantly. Lastly, the will to escape was shown as the influential factor in visitor satisfaction. Visiting open spaces for the enjoyment of nature and aesthetic purposes were factors that also closely relate to visitor satisfaction. In addition, it was found that there are different visitor motivations that influence visitor satisfaction in accordance with the spatial characteristics of each open space. In summary, it can be said that urban waterfront open space is a hybrid space connected to various types of urban contents beyond daily experiences. It was found that several visitor motivations including community development, design aesthetics, education and culture, entertainment, enjoyment of natural landscape, and relaxation, affect the overall satisfaction of the visiting experience. It is anticipated that the results of the study will be used by the local government in setting up strategies for the creation and management of successful urban waterfront open space, and for those involved in planning and design act as a starting point for spatial programming and amenities arrangement in accordance to the city's tourism and urban marketing approach.

This study intends to examine the characteristics of the construction method of the urban water system in the historical cities of Korea, focusing on Gyeongju, Gyeongju, Goryeo, Hanyang, and Suwon Hwaseong, which were created as new towns in the late Joseon Dynasty. It examines the meaning of waterways in connection with the urban skeletal structure, focusing on the location of cities, roads, and arrangement of urban facilities, and analyzes the compositional form of the water system. We tried to derive the relationship with the structure. In particular, it can be seen that water and natural water systems act as key factors in determining the location of a city, and have a close relationship with the urban structure, urban development process, and urban structure. In addition to the symbolic meaning of water in harmony with the geographical concept, realistic demands in terms of water level and water retention are an important background. In order to respond to various demands related to water space, various planning and technical elements for managing water space were introduced in the process of city formation and development. The planning elements of the urban water system in the process of urban formation and development are summarized as follows through the analysis of the research site. First, in the process of building the urban water system in Gyeongju, Goryeo, Goryeo, Hanyang, and Hwaseong, Suwon, which were selected as the research destinations, the water system in consideration of drainage and disaster is common, but the water system construction method and usability are common. shows the difference. Second, water and natural water systems act as symbolic elements to secure the legitimacy of the city location, and as a key factor in determining the location of the city in harmony with the geographical concept and determining the left direction of the city. Third, the natural water system prior to the formation of a city works as a basis for determining the compositional form of the urban water system constructed in the process of urban formation and development in harmony with the topographical conditions. Fourth, the urban water system built on the basis of natural water systems is constructed by linking natural waterways and planned artificial waterways. Fifth, the urban water system is being built in a planned manner in consideration of the utility in connection with the urban structure, such as securing of urban land, arrangement of urban facilities and areas, composition of functional areas, and land division, in addition to the perspective of drainage system and flood control in consideration of disasters.
