  • Resource evaluation for environment-friendly regional planning using GIS was implemented in Bonghwa-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do And new paradigms such as 'green tourism', 'eco-tourism', 'eco-village', were considered and applied into resource indicator system. The weighted evaluation was carried out into pixel units and the scores of every 'myeon' were compared with each others. As a result, the area that has the 'Dak-sil-ma-eul' village in Bonghwa-eup got the highest score. When compared every 'myeon' in mean scores, Bonghwa-eup got the first grade, Socheon-myeon the second grade and Choonyang-myeon the third grade. In a comprehensive view, the areas that got higher scores were the lower flat areas and the 'Dak-sil-ma-eul' village in Bonghwa-eup, north-east areas in Choonyang-myeon, north-west areas and south-east areas in Socheon-myeon. In this study, resource evaluation using indicator system and GIS was implemented, and some problems that appeared in this process were resolved.

  • Naesung stream famous for 'sandy river', a tributary to the Nakdong River, flows through Yeongju-Bonghwa Basin, its drainage. If the dismantlement of granitic hills in basin is in final stage, weathering materials from hills into stream are finer materials like silty or sandy loam than coarse sand, because sand as weathering mantles is provided from granitic hills, in general. So the granitic hills in Yeongju-Bonghwa basin is dissecting present. As a results of the CIA analysis(A-CN-K and A-CNK-FM ternary diagram), chemical weathering of granitic grus in Yeongju-Bonghwa basin is too very weak for calcium and sodium to be dissolved and go as far as to be more weak than that of Jeongeup, Nonsan and Namwon, common granitic grus in Korean Peninsula. Therefore, the chemical characteristics of granitic hills in Yeongju-Bonghwa basin show that the alteration of weathering mantles just finished disintegration and is dissected at a standstill. Plenty of sands provided from granitic hills is filling the channel of Naesung stream.

  • This is a study on village names in a plain region of Changnyeong-Gun, a mountain region of Bonghwa-Gun and an island region of Namhae-Gun. The three regions differ in geographical features. The data are based on 455 village names in Changnyeong-Gun, 552 village names in Bonghwa-Gun and 275 village names in Namhae-Gun found in the 1 : 50,000 topographic map. The method of this study is to analyze the word structures of village names in the five basic concepts in geography : Man-Land(Natural Environment and Human Activities). Spatial Relation, Distribution, Region and Transition. The main results of this study are as follows: 1. Naming of villages are related to Natural Environment(41%), Human Activities(23%), Region(17%), Spatial Relation(13%), Distribution(5%), and Transition(3%). Of these six factors, Changnyeong-Gun is relatively dominant in village names related to Spatial Relations, Region and Transition ; Bonghwa-Gun Natural Environment and Namhae-Gun Human Activities and Spatial Relations. But the three Guns are absolutely dominant in village names related to Natural Environment and Human Activities. 2. A village name is divided into the specific name part(given name) and the generic name part(classified name). Names related to Human Activities, Spatial Relations, Distribution and Transition are more frequently found in the specific name part. Therefore, they are used as the given name of a village name. Whereas names related to Natural Environment and Region are more frequently found in generic name part, which means that they are used as the classified name of a village. 3. The word structure of a village name usually has two parts a frontal part(given name) and a rear part(classified name). The two parts have a particular pattern in the geographic concept when they are combined. 1) In the village names related to in their frontal part of the word structure, is more frequently combined as their rear part in Bonghwa-Gun, in Namhae-Gun and in Changnyeong-Gun. 2) In the village names related to in their frontal part of the word structure, is more frequently combined as their rear part in Changnyeong-Gun, in Namhae-Gun and in Bonghwa-Gun. Accordingly, Man(Human Activities) - Land (Natural Environment) can be considered the most important concept in the naming of villages, because the concept is most frequently used in the word structures of village names.

  • This study was conducted the vegetation clustering analysis for the 3 mountains of Mt. Bulam, Mt. Daemo, Mt. Bonghwa which were the urban forests of Seoul. Based on the results of the analysis related to the vegetation clustering, it was found that the clustering of Mt. Bulam consisted of pine trees(Pinus densiflora)-Mongolian oak(Quercus mongolica), Hornb eam(Carpinus laxiflora)-Pitch pine(P. rigida), oriental oak(Q. variabilis) - a wild pear tree(Sorbus alnifolia) while the clustering of Mt. Daemo consisted of Pitch pine-Japanese larch(Larix leptolepis), Poplar(Populus tomentig landulosa)- black birch(Betula davurica pall). Meanwhile, the clustering of Mt. Bonghwa consisted of pine trees-a wild pear tree Community and Sawtooth oak(Q. acutissima)-Cherry Blossoms(Prunus serrulata). In relation to the similarity index by region in Mt. Bulam, Mt. Daemo, and Mt. Bonghwa, the similarity index of Mt. Bulam and Mt. Daemo stood at as high as 0.634, suggesting the distribution of similar vegetation, and the dominance index of the Mt. Daemo region was found to be 0.166 which suggests the dominance of many species compared to other regions. In addition, the results of species diversity showed that Mt. Daemo had the highest stability, and the species diversity, maximum species diversity, evenness indices were highest in Mt. Bulam, followed by Mt. Bonghwa and Mt. Daemo. The dominance index was the lowest in Mt. Bulam, followed by Mt. Bonghwa and Mt. Daemo.

  • Physical characteristics of Korean red pine (Pinus densiflora) were investigated with different cultivation locations in Taebaek Mountains as Goseong-gun, Hongcheon-gun and Bonghwa-gun as experimental sites. Moisture content based on air-dried or green (artificial) wood was no significant differences with different cultivation places. Specific gravities of both sapwood and heartwood of red pine from Bonghwa-gun were higher than those from other two sites (Hongcheon-gun or Goseong-gun). Specific gravity of heartwood of red pine from Goseong-gun was higher than it from Hongcheon-gun, but this trend was opposite in case of sapwood. Higher specific gravity of red pine heartwood from Goseong-gun maybe resulted in higher strength than those of other sites. In shrinkage ratio, there was no significant difference among different cultivation places in radial directions, but red pine from Bonghwa-gun was higher than those of other sites in tangential directions. Hygroscopicity was no significant differences with different cultivation places. These results will be helpful information for efficient use of pinewood and good quality of pinewood production for genetical breeding improved.

  • This study investigated mechanical characteristics of pine trees in Yeongdong (Goseong-gun), Yeongseo (Hongcheon-gun), and Yeongnam (Bonghwa-gun) to define differences in the material quality among pine trees of the three regions. The compressive strength, hardness and shear strength of pine trees of each region were measured. There were no differences in the compressive strength of the juvenile woods among the regions, while the heartwood and sapwood in Bongwha generally showed the highest compressive strength followed by those in Hongcheon and in Goseong. The hardness of the cross-section of pines in Bonghwa was the highest, and in terms of the hardness of the radial and tangential sections, pines in Goseong topped the list.. There were no difference among heartwoods of each region in terms of the shear strength, but, but sapwood from Bonghwa had higher shear strength than those of the other two regions, which may be attributed to differences in tracheid length and microfibril angle among pines in each region. This study identifies the quality differences among pines of different region, and therefore, is expected to add value by helping choose the domestic pine tree material effectively and selectively, and also select a plus tree.

  • This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of fertilization on characteristics of growth and accumulation of anthocyanin in fruit of Omija (Schisandra chinensis Baillon). Nitrogen supply mainly affected growth of fruit and the anthocyanin content in Omija respective of vegetative growth steps. The anthocyanin content in fruit was significantly low in high N supply and non-fertilization. The conjunctive supply of nitrogen and compost tea resulted in a higher anthocyanin content of fruit, total nitrogen content of leaf, and nitrate in soil. This result implies that nitrogen supply to Omija plant, affects the accumulation patterns of anthocyanin in different ways, e.g. it delays the quantitative biosynthesis at low nitrogen supply during fruit maturation or enhances anthocyanin degradation during the final maturation steps.
