This paper deals with pollen analysis of a 190cm core collected from the Chollipo Arboretum sedimentary basin($N36^{\circ}47$ 43", $E1269^{\circ}$ 7") in southwestern Korea in order to know the change of the climate and vegetation. In this research it is found that the pollen zones are divided into two layers. Pollen zone, I, the lower layer, is flourished with broadleaved trees such as Quercus, Alnus, Corylus, Betula, Carpinus and Castanopsis, and about 30~40% of pollen of those trees consist of that of Q. acuta/glauca and Castanopsis which are evergreen trees. And pollen of Trapa, Typhaceae and Nymphaceae living in wet habitat, is dominant among the nonarboreal pollen. Therefore we can conclude that it ould be warmer and more humid than present in this area of the past. In pollen zone, the upper layer, pollen of Pinus is dominant and those of Artemisia, Gramineae, Compositae and spore are increased in quantity, while pollen of Quercus, Belula and Nymphaceae decreased. It it supposed that the climate of this zone was drier than that zone.that zone.

The standing crop and net production were estimated in Moojaechi on Mt. Jungjok. By using the decay model of organic carbon, absolute year of bog peat was calculated. Pollen analysis to bog peat revealed vegetational history and climate change around Moojaechi. The time required for amount of the accumulated peat in the bog was estimated in terms of the balance of the accumulation and decay of organic carbon of the deposit peat. Absolute year of the peat surveyed in this study was about 314 years. Pollen of Pinus was predominant in all the pollen zone, Geamineae and Cyperaceae increased in lower pollen zone while Pinus in upper pollen zone. This showes that climate of the past was probably more humid than that of present. In addition, middle pollen zone showed warming trend which is suggested by high pollen concentration of Quercus, Juglans, Carpinus and Corylus. It suggests that overall environment and vegetation were changed from warmer and more humid to dry condition in Moojaechi and it is considered as the course of boggy ground formation by retrogressive successions.

The climate is changing rapidly, and this may pose a major threat to global biodiversity. One of the most distinctive consequences of climate change is the poleward and/or upward shift of species distribution ranges associated with increasing temperatures, resulting in a change of species composition and community structure in the forest ecosystems. The Baekdudaegan mountain range connects most forests from the lowland to the subalpine zone in South Korea and is therefore recognized as one of the most important biodiversity hotspots. This study was conducted to understand the distribution range of vascular plants along elevational gradients through field surveys in the six national parks of the Baekdudaegan mountain range. We identified the upper and lower distribution limits of a total of 873 taxa of vascular plants with 117 families, 418 genera, 793 species, 14 subspecies, 62 varieties, two forms, and two hybrids. A total of 12 conifers were recorded along the elevational gradient. The distribution ranges of Abies koreana, Picea jezoensis, Pinus pumila, and Thuja koraiensis were limited to over 1000 m above sea level. We also identified 21 broad-leaved trees in the subalpine zone. A total of 45 Korean endemic plant species were observed, and of these, 15 taxa (including Aconitum chiisanense and Hanabusaya asiatica) showed a narrow distribution range in the subalpine zone. Our study provides valuable information on the current elevational distribution ranges of vascular plants in the six national parks of South Korea, which could serve as a baseline for vertical shifts under future climate change.

효율적인 공간계획은 기후변화에 성공적으로 대응하기 위해 필요한 요소 중 하나이다. 연구자들은 흔히 토지이용 및 공간계획 연구를 수행하기 위해 LULC(Land-Use/Land-Cover) 데이터를 활용하고 있다. 그러나 LULC 데이터는 어떠한 도시 표면의 특징을 분류할 수 있는 조건이 몇 가지로 한정되어 있어 여러 도시에서 나타나는 각기 다른 도시구조를 기존 토지피복 분류법으로는 쉽게 분석할 수 없다. 이러한 토지피복 자료의 한계는 도시 열섬 분야에서 사용되는 LCZ(Local Climate Zone) 자료를 통해 극복될 것으로 보인다. 따라서 본 연구는 먼저 LCZ 데이터가 도시 열섬 분야뿐만 아니라 다른 분야에도 적용될 수 있는지를 논의하고, 두 번째로 LCZ 데이터가 기존 LULC 데이터의 문제점을 동일하게 가지는지 논의하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 연구 방법론은 크게 두 가지로 진행된다. 첫째, 문헌고찰을 통해 LCZ와 관련된 기후, 토지이용, 도시공간구조 분야의 연구를 종합하여 현재 어떤 연구에 LCZ 데이터가 활용되고 있는지, 토지이용과 도시공간구조 분야에서 어떻게 적용·활용될 수 있는지 분석한다. 다음으로 GIS 공간분석을 활용하여 LCZ 데이터도 역시 LULC 데이터에 내재한 몇 가지 오류를 공유하고 있는지에 대해 비교·분석한다.

The seed zone is a map that describes the areas where plant material can be transferred with little risk for properly adapting to a new location. The seed zone study is largely divided into studies based on genetic data and studies based on climatic data. Can be. This study was conducted to establish a temporary domestic seed zone applicable to the entire Korean Peninsula and evaluate its possibility based on the US climate-based seed zone establishment methodology. The temporary seed zone was constructed in the same way as the US case by superimposing the data obtained by dividing the winter minimum temperature into 12 grades and the data obtained by dividing the annual heat: moisture index into 6 grades. As a result of the analysis, 65 temporary seed zones were formed throughout the Korean Peninsula, and the areas of the seed zones representing the smallest and largest areas were 3.0km² and 29,423.0km², respectively, and it was confirmed that they had an average size of about 5,064.9km². Temporary seed zones applied in Korea show a pattern of changes in temperature according to the relatively horizontal forest zone, and it was confirmed that the area where the Baekdu-daegan ecological axis is located has a tendency to show lower dryness than other areas. This study applied the US climate-based seed zone methodology in Korea as a pilot, and confirmed the climatic similarity across the Korean Peninsula. Furthermore, it is expected to provide an optimal seed map that improves the success rate of restoration in the future by revising the seed zone grade suitable for the domestic environment in consideration of the results of this study and the possibility of seed adaptation to the field survey and environmental space.

Pollen analysis on a 320cm core collected from paengsung area (36°56′50"N, 127°03′10"E) in southwesterm korea was carried out to investigate the changes in past climate and vegetation in that area. In this research it was found that pollen zones are divided into two layers of substage IIb and IIc. Pollen zone IIb, the lower layer, was dominated by high percentages of deciduous broadleaved trees such as alnus, Quercus, Corylus, Betula, Carpinus and Salix. Trapa, Typhaceae and Nymphaceae growing in wet habitat and Chenpodiaceae were pornounced amont the nonrboreal pollens. At that time, it seems that it was warmer and more humid than present. In pollen zone IIc, the upper layer, pollen of Pinun was dominant and those of Artemisia, Gramineae, Compositae, Cyperaceae and spore increased while of Quercus, Betula and Nymphaceae decreased. It is supposed that the climate of this zone was drier that the lower laywer.

Watershed area can be submerged due to constructions and management of dams, and these change can impact not only on ecosystem and environment of river basin area but also on local climate. This study is conducted to construct and classify climate zones of Andong Dam watershed where the area is submerged due to the construction of the dam. By applying Principal Components Analysis (PCA) and Getis-Ord $Gi^*$ statistics, three climate zones were classified for the result. Each zone was then analyzed and validated with climatic and geological features including topography, land cover, and forest type map. As a result of the analysis, there was a difference in temperature, elevation, precipitation and tree species distribution among the zones. Also, an analysis of land cover map showed that there were more agricultural land near Andong Reservoir. This study on the climatic classification is considered to be useful as the basis for decision-making or policy enforcement regarding ecosystem, environmental management or climate change response.
