This study aimed to evaluate the ability to reduce flood damage caused by abnormal rainfall events due to climate change by utilizing a blue-green roof (BGF), a type of rooftop greening technology. For two buildings with the same roof area, a BGF was installed in the experimental group, a general roof was configured in the control group, and rainfall runoff was compared. A total of 10 rainfall events were tested and analyzed by classifying them into three rainfall classes (less than 10 mm, less than 100 mm, and more than 100 mm). There was a reduction of 100% in the case of 10 mm or less of rainfall, 84. 7% in the case of 100 mm or less, and 39.8% in the case of 100 mm or more. Although this study showed that a BGF was effective in reducing rainfall runoff, additional experiments and analyses of various factors affecting rainfall runoff reduction are needed to generalize the results of the study. This research methodology may be used to develop a method for evaluating the resilience of a BGF to flood damage due to climate change.

The accelerated pace of climate crisis due to continuous industrialization and greenhouse gas emissions necessitates sustainable solutions that simultaneously address mitigation and adaptation to climate change. Naturebased Solutions (NbS) have gained prominence as viable approaches, with Green Infrastructure being a representative NbS. Green Infrastructure involves securing green spaces within urban areas, providing diverse climate adaptation functions such as removal of various air pollutants, carbon sequestration, and isolation. The proliferation of Green Infrastructure is influenced by the quantification of improvement effects related to various projects. To support decision-making by assessing the climate vulnerability of Green Infrastructure, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has developed i-Tree Tools. This study proposes a comprehensive evaluation approach for climate change adaptation types by quantifying the climate adaptation performance of urban Green Infrastructure. Using i-Tree Canopy, the analysis focuses on five urban green spaces covering more than 30 hectares, considering the tree ratio relative to the total area. The evaluation encompasses aspects of thermal environment, aquatic environment, and atmospheric environment to assess the overall eco-friendliness in terms of climate change adaptation. The results indicate that an increase in the tree ratio correlates with improved eco-friendliness in terms of thermal, aquatic, and atmospheric environments. In particular, it is necessary to prioritize consideration of the water environment sector in order to realize climate change adaptive green infrastructure, such as increasing green space in urban areas, as it has been confirmed that four out of five target sites are specialized in improving the water environment.

Potential feasibility of nutrients removal and biofuel production with microalgae was evaluated in batch culture. Distribution of microalgae in fresh water including reservoir and river was investigated to search for the species with high content of lipid that could converted into biofuel. Green algae, Chlorella and Scenedesmus sp., these are known as species containing high lipid content for biodiesel production, were observed in both summer and autumn season. However another highly lipid-containing species, botryococcus sp. was not observed in this study. In mixed culture of microalgae using synthesized wastewater medium, green algae were found to be dominant, comparing to other species of diatoms and blue-green algae. And microalgae were also capable of removing nitrogen and phosphorus in batch experiments. During the culture period of 14 days, removal efficiencies of nitrate and phosphorus were 30% and 82%, respectively. Furthermore, content of the intracellular lipid extracted from algae cell was as favorable as 12-30% in the mixed culture where Scenedesmus and Chlorella sp. were dominant. Therefore the mixed culture of microalgae could be applied to biofuel production and tertiary wastewater treatment, even though there are economic barriers to overcome.

Nature-based Solutions (NbS) are defined as practical and technical approaches to restoring functioning ecosystems and biodiversity as a means to address socio-environmental challenges and provide human-nature co-benefits. This study reviews NbS-related literature to identify its key characteristics, techniques, and challenges for its application in climate-adaptive water management. The review finds that NbS has been commonly used as an umbrella term incorporating a wide range of existing ecosystem-based approaches such as low-impact development (LID), best management practices (BMP), forest landscape restoration (FLR), and blue-green infrastructure (BGI), rather than being a uniquely-situated practice. Its technical form and operation can vary significantly depending on the spatial scale (small versus large), objective (mitigation, adaptation, naturalization), and problem (water supply, quality, flooding). Commonly cited techniques include green spaces, permeable surfaces, wetlands, infiltration ponds, and riparian buffers in urban sites, while afforestation, floodplain restoration, and reed beds appear common in non- and less-urban settings. There is a greater lack of operational clarity for large-scale NbS than for small-scale NbS in urban areas. NbS can be a powerful tool that enables an integrated and coordinated action embracing not only water management, but also microclimate moderation, ecosystem conservation, and emissions reduction. This study points out the importance of developing decision-making guidelines that can inform practitioners of the selection, operation, and evaluation of NbS for specific sites. The absence of this framework is one of the obstacles to mainstreaming NbS for water management. More case studies are needed for empirical assessment of NbS.

생태계는 우리의 생존과 삶의 질을 유지할 수 있게 하여 인간 복지에 직, 간접적으로 기여하고 있다. 그래서 생태적 기능의 계량화 방법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 응용생태공학에 생태계서비스를 도입하고 적용하는 것에 대하여 논의하였다. 하천의 경제적 가치, 도시 블루-그린-화이트 네트워크 구축, 생태복원 및 통합 물관리에 생태계서비스 개념 및 평가체계를 적용할 수 있는 방안을 모색하였다. 생태계서비스 개념 틀과 평가는 이해해당사자의 생태계 혜택 이해에 도움을 주고 응용생태공학 적용을 증가시켜 생태적 보호와 복원 가치의 증진에 이용될 수 있다.

본 연구는 사회환경적 문제의 해결방안으로서 새롭게 등장한 자연기반해법 (NbS) 개념을 물관리에 초점을 맞추어 생태계에 기반을 둔 기존 유사개념들과 비교, 평가한 것이다. NbS는 (자연)생태계 기능이 사회환경문제 해결에 활용하기 위한 기존의 다양한 접근방법들을 포괄적으로 대표할 수 있다는 점에서 그 의미가 있으며, 특히 교육적, 설득적인 면에서 유익한 개념이다. 그러나 물관리 측면에서 접근방법론은 특히 Eco-DRR을 포함하는 광의의 그린인프라와 실제 크게 다르지 않다. 다만 협의의 그린인프라는 현재 우수관리에 초점을 맞추고 있기 때문에 NbS 개념은 여전히 유용하다. 물관련 제 방법론은 개념적, 공간적 포괄성 관점에서 NbS-(EE)-BGI-(CRT)-GI-LID 순으로 표시할 수 있다. 마지막으로, LID 용어는 토지개발사업과 같이 특정한 경우를 제외하고 혼돈스럽지 않도록 그린인프라 용어로 대체할 수 있을 것이다.

최근 도시에서 생산되는 수많은 디지털 데이터를 저장, 운용, 분석하기 위한 3차원 도시 공간정보 인프라에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. CityGML은 OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium)의 3차원 공간정보 데이터 표준으로서 도시 데이터의 교환 및 속성 표현에 강점을 가지고 있으며, 최근 싱가폴, 뉴욕 등 몇몇 도시를 중심으로 CityGML 형식의 3차원 도시공간 데이터를 구축한 사례가 등장하였다. 그러나 현재 CityGML 데이터의 제작 및 편집을 위한 생태계는 sketchup이나 3d max 등 3차원 데이터 구축에 활용되고 있는 상용프로그램과 비교할 때 완성도가 부족하여 대규모로 CityGML 데이터를 구축하는 데 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 항공 LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) 나 RGB (Red Green Blue) 카메라를 이용하여 신속하고 자동으로 제작되는 3D mesh 데이터 및 2차원 폴리곤을 활용하여 3차원 공간정보 표준인 CityGML 데이터를 구축하는 방법을 제시하였다. 데이터 구축과정에서는 각 객체가 다양한 CityGML LoD (Level of Detail)로 표현될 수 있도록 원본 3D mesh 데이터를 변형하였고 공간정보로서 활용도를 높이기 위해 2차원 공간정보 데이터로부터 추출한 속성정보를 보조적으로 활용하였다. 본 연구에서 제작한 도시 3D 객체는 CityGML 건물, 교량, 도시시설물, 도로, 터널이며 객체별 데이터 변환, 속성 구축 방법을 제시하고 가시화 및 유효성 검정을 진행하였다.
