  • 경제개발에 따른 현실적인 하천의 모습은 각종 오염원으로 인한 수질악화와 산업화 및 도시화에 의한 물순환시스템의 붕괴로 인한 하천 생태계의 파괴로 나타나고 있다. 따라서 훼손된 하천을 친자연적으로 보존하고 더 나아가 하천을 자연생태계와 인간이 공존할 수 있는 공간으로 조성하기 위한 시도가 늘어나고 있다. 2006년 수립된 수자원장기종합계획에서는 자연환경보존과 생활환경 개선을 위한 유량확보의 필요성을 제기하고 있다. 이중 생활환경개선에 필요한 물은 청계천의 사례처럼 최근 들어 하천 및 수변생태계 복원, 보전 사업과 연계된 거주성(Amenity)차원의 새로운 용수수요로써 급격히 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 환경개선용수는 인위적으로 공급되기 때문에 환경개선용수를 필요로 하는 구간의 상 하류의 자연적인 물순환시스템에 영향을 미치게 되어 하천수 사용에 대한 수리권에 직접적으로 영향을 주게 된다. 따라서 환경개선용수를 사용하고자 하는 경우에는 이를 공급하는 공급원 지점과 환경개선용수를 사용하는 구간을 중심으로 상세한 물수지분석을 통해 기존의 수리권에 대한 영향 여부를 검토하여야 한다. 새로운 수요인 환경개선용수는 하천의 일부 구간 또는 일부 지역에 대해 거주성(Amenity) 차원에서 사회환경을 개선 정비하는데 활용하기 위하여 수혜자의 요구에 의해 인위적으로 공급되는 용수인 것이다. 따라서 국가가 산정하는 하천유지유량과 달리 환경개선 용수는 수혜자가 직접 산정하여야 하며, 산정된 환경개선용수는 하천관리자(국가)로부터 사용허가를 받아야 한다.

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the differences of use behavior and environmental perception of a park and to analyze the influence of environmental perception factors on park satisfaction among 7 parks in Suseong-gu, Daegu. The data from the 255 questionnaires of young adults (30-59) and old adults (more than 60) who use the park more than once a week were used for the analysis. In terms of park use behavior, young adults used the park for walking and jogging mainly on weekday evenings, while old adults used the park for walking and rest mainly during weekday daytimes. In addition, old adults used the park more times a week than young adults, and spent more time in the park. In the analysis of the environmental perception of the park, similar results were found in both age groups but overall, old adults were more satisfied with the park environment than the young adults. As a result of analyzing the influence of environmental perception factors, it was determined that park satisfaction in young adults has a significant influence on 'use amenity', 'use convenience', 'facility suitability', and 'landscape diversity' in this order. On the other hand, park satisfaction for old adults has an influence on 'use amenity', 'facility suitability', and 'use convenience' in this order. The findings of this study can be used as an effective basic data for future park planning considering age groups.

  • This study investigated the environmental indices in environmental administration, and to presents how to develop a sustainable environmental evaluation index. The index should be used to evaluate composite plans in the environmental aspects as well as means for setting goals of basic plans for the environment and its management. Specifically, the goals of composite plans are to check environments and land use frame, and evaluate individual measures (public projects). Environment policies are required to be 'a policy creating a clean environment' from 'a policy of environment regulation'. For the organization of a basic framework of environment policies, five topics are needed to be considered, such as the clarification of the idea of environment, establishment of environment regulations, environment management plan, plan to support civilian's action, and local government's efforts for the global matters of environment. For the amenity environments, people should expand their environmental behavior based on their voluntary intentions in transformation of personal life styles, projects with less load on the environment, development of environmentally-friendly projects with consideration for their impact on the earth. This study suggests that they should put more efforts into the development and implementation of useful environmental indices which effectively analyse the regional character to protect the natural ecology and create an sustainable environment with wide coverage.

  • The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between the physical environment and mental health of the adolescents in urban and rural areas. This study was performed using the questionnaire survey method. The research subjects were high school students in Seoul and Jeollabuk-do rural areas. The questionnaire inquired about the housing, neighborhood, and school environments, and these contents were depended on previous studies. The survey was conducted from August 27 to September 6, 2013, and 446 data were collected. They were analyzed with the SPSS 12.0 program. The main results are as follows. 1) The urban adolescents evaluated physical environment to be better than rural adolescents. Specifically, the urban adolescents evaluated 'facility/accommodation', 'security/health', 'amenity' of the housing environment, 'disorder', 'comfortability', 'nature awareness' of the neighborhood environment, and 'noise', 'overcrowding', and 'security' of the school environment to be higher. 2) The urban adolescents' self-esteem was significantly higher than rural ones. 3) The physical environment factors, which had effects on adolescents' mental health, are different depending on the areas, and so adolescents' physical environment would be designed by the local environment conditions.

  • This study is to organize the frame of measuring inventory for housing quality related to mental health in foreign literature reviews. In the first step, many housing quality contents or items are extracted from empirical studies, including housing environment quality and mental health. In the next step, extracted contents and items are classified by space scope (house and neighborhood unit) and WHO housing properties (safety & security, health & sanitation, efficiency/convenience, comfort/amenity). Almost all housing properties follow the WHO standard, but some properties, sustainability and economic characteristics, do not follow the standard. These reflect on current Korean housing environment. They are energy saving and environment friendly effort, property value and economic burden, identity expression, and school district. So they need to be added to the Korean housing quality measurement related to mental health.
