DMZ는 1953년 정전협정 이후 설정된 군사분계선의 남북으로 설정된 완충지대이다. 또한 정전협정 이후 철저히 사람의 간섭으로부터 단절된 지역이고, 67종의 멸종위기종을 포함한 2,716종의 야생동·식물이 서식하는 중요한 자연환경보전지역이다. 반면, 향후 남북경협 활성화 시 DMZ에 대한 개발압력은 증가될 수밖에 없기에, DMZ 개발 시 경제적 비용-편익 관점에서의 논의뿐 아니라, DMZ의 생물다양성을 어떻게 평가하고 보존할 것인지와 복구비용 및 예산도 종합적으로 고려해야 한다. 본 논문은 실물옵션 방법론으로 생물다양성의 가치를 고려한 DMZ 관리 모형을 제시하였다. 또한 DMZ의 정치적 리스크 및 지역적 특수성을 모형 안에 반영하여 설계하였다. 실증분석을 통해 불확실성하에서 DMZ 투자경제성을 확보할 수 있는 생물다양성 가치의 임계값(b^*)을 도출하였으며, 이때 생물다양성이 주는 편익을 도출하였다. 그리고 민감도 분석을 통해 생물다양성 가치의 임계값에 영향을 주는 요인을 분석하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 DMZ의 지속가능한 개발을 위한 정책적 시사점을 제시하였다.

Surface soil is one of the most important resources that have many functions for human needs such as conservation of water resource, purification of contaminated materials, and productivity of food or energy. However, the surface soil is a limited resource that cannot be recovered readily for a long time once it is lost by erosion. In Korea, the Ministry of Environment enacted the notification on the investigation of surface soil erosion and corresponding countermeasures. As the results, database of soil quality assess criteria (biomass, groundwater recharge, habitat, carbon storage, buffer, and soil loss) was established, and the web-based system that can evaluate surface soil conditions was developed. However, non-experts have difficulties in using the system because the system requires in-depth knowledge about soil qualities. In this study, the Web Geographic Information System (GIS) watershed-based surface soil information system was developed to improve usability of the system and accessibility of soil quaility database. The system provides the current condition of surface soil characteristics and GIS-based soil data at selected locations. The users are able to download soil quality data in different districts, watersheds, and special regions allocated by TauDEM module. The system developed in this study would valuable surface soil information for studies of soil quality and its environmental effects, and thereby contributing to establishing more appropriate and robust soil conservation laws.

Even small changes in phosphorus concentrations in stream water could cause eutrophication because of very low level of phosphorus concentrations in natural waters. I investigated the impact of strip cut and clear cut on phosphorus concentrations in stream water at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest and investigated stream water phosphorus concentrations as a function of flow rate and season (as well as cutting history). Mean phosphate concentrations in the control (undisturbed forest) increased $1.9{\mu}g\;L^{-1}\;to\;2.6{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$, while strip cut treatment increased phosphate concentrations in stream water $2.2{\mu}g\;L^{-1}\;to\;3.7{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$ during the same period. There was no significant effect of clear cut treatment on phosphate concentrations in stream water. No relationships were found between discharge rate and phosphate concentrations, but the magnitude of fluctuation were increased during two decades in undisturbed forest: $1-5{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$ from 1963 to 1975 and $1-12{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$ from 1983 to 1995. Based on this study, forest harvests with buffer zone will not make a problem by imported phosphate to cause eutrophication in natural water.

This work is aimed at estimating the effects of various factors on the energy consumption of Korean-style apartment houses using TRNSYS. The factors considered here include the nominal size of floor area, type of remodeling, azimuth, sidewall insulation, and window type. Based on some assumptions, an actual apartment house is simplified into a model that is used for thermal load calculations. The simplified model is validated by showing a good agreement with the actual one in the predicted result. Remodeling balconies into unconditioned buffer spaces yields a favorable thermal performance in comparison with the original type regardless of the nominal size. Incorporating balconies into a conditioned indoor space leads to sharp increases in thermal loads, which must be avoided in view of energy conservation as well as structural problem. A quantitative assessment on the azimuthal effect indicates that the heating energy can be saved up to 16％ by taking the south or southeast direction. Reduction in the heating load with enhancing the sidewall insulation is gradual, so that a cost-effectiveness analysis may be needed when amending the regulations concerned. Glazing appears to significantly affect the heat transfer through window. A typical case illustrates that the heating load is decreased about 25％ by simply adopting triple glazing instead of double glazing.

Sanankerto is one of pilot projects for tourism villages in Indonesia due to its natural tourism potential with a 24-ha bamboo forest located in Boon Pring Andeman area. However, the distribution of existing bamboo has never been identified or mapped. Thus, the mana gement is facing difficulty in planning and developing tourism potential as well as spatial management in the area. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to identify and analyze the structure of bamboo vegetation in the Boon Pring Tourism village an d to perform vegetation mapping. The type of research was descriptive exploratory with a cluster sampling technique (i.e., a two-stage cluster) covering an area of ± 10 ha. Bamboo vegetation analysis was performed by calculating diversity index (H'), evenness index (E), and Species Richness index (R). Data were collected through observation and interviews with local people and the manager to determine zonation division. Mapping of bamboo vegetation based on zoning was processed into thematic maps using ArcG is 10.3. Micro climatic factors were measured with three replications for each sub -cluster. Data were analyzed descriptively and quantitatively. Nine species of bamboo identified. Diversity, evenness, and species richness indices differed at each location. Activities of local communities, tourists, and manager determined the presence, number, and distribution of bamboo species. These bamboo distribution maps in three zoning (utilization, buffer, and core) can be used by manager for planning and developing natural tourism potential.

This study was conducted to examine the inhabitation of wild birds at the World Cup Park and to offer the Park ecological management data. Land use md actual vegetation were examined to analyze the inhabitation of wild birds. Characteristics of bird communities were analyzed by dominance, density, diversity index and guild concept. You compare inhabitation before and after the Park was built. We classified the land use and actual vegetation into twenty-six types. Robinia pseudoacacia dominated the study area. Pyeonghwa Park and Nanji-cheon Park were simple-layer structures composed of alien woody species. The observed birds after the World Cup Park included 33 families 77 species, and 9,751 individuals. Among Wild Life types, the shrub and bush type was dominant. There were 26 species of resident birds, 20 species of summer visitors, 18 species of winter visitors, and 12 species of passage migrants. The following numbers of species and individuals were observed: in Hanul park, 38 species, 3,151 individuals; in Noul park, 45 species, 2,061 individuals; in Nanji-cheon park, 42 species, 2,742 individuals; in Pyeonghwa park, 29 species, 875 individuals; and in Maebongsan(Mt.) area, 35 species, 922 individuals. Species diversities for each area were as follows: Noul park, 2.613; Hanul park, 2,301; Nanji-cheon, 2.228; and Pyeonghwa park, 2,019; and each season: summer, 2.652; spring, 2.650: winter, 2.561; and autumn 2.176. The diversity of species increased from 1.135 in 1994 to 2.324 in 2001. We recommended that the park be differented into different ecological areas in order to encourage the appearance of wild birds at the World Cup Park. The management area was divided into three districts(conservation area, preservation and restoration area, use area). The conservation area was established to the west of a waste landfill and in the downstream area of NanJi-cheon, the preservation and restoration area was established in the midstream area of Nanji-cheon, and the use area was established in the buffer zone of Pyeonghwa Park and the Nanji pond greenspace.

Background: Baekdudaegan was designated in 2005 as a protected area to prevent destruction and conserve. However, there are many disturbed and destroyed areas. The total disturbed area amounts to $25.9km^2$ (0.94%), including $13.4km^2$ (0.49%) in the core area and $12.5km^2$ (0.45%) in the buffer area. This study aims to classify the vegetation types established in the disturbed areas and diagnose the current conditions for ecological restoration in the forest ecosystem. Methods: We surveyed the vegetation in the disturbed areas of Daegwallyeong and Chupungryeong and the surrounding natural areas. The survey conducted from July to September 2015 targeted a total of 54 quadrats by Braun-Blanquet method (Daegwallyeong, 22; Chupungryeong, 32). We also investigated the height and coverage of each layer. We classified the vegetation types based on the field data and analyzed the ratio of life form and the exotic plants, species richness, and vegetation index (Hcl). The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was calculated from rapideye satellite imagery in 2014 and 2015. Results: Vegetation types were classified into 11 groups according to the criteria that included successional sere or plantation at first, followed by developmental stage and origins. As a result of the analysis of the survey data, species richness, vegetation index (Hcl), ratio of tree plants, and the NDVI tended to increase, while the ratio of the exotic plants tended to decrease with the time since disturbance. These indicators had the classified values according to the vegetation types with time since the disturbance. Conclusions: These indicators can be effectively used to diagnose the conditions of the present vegetation in the disturbed area of the Baekdudaegan area. In addition, the NDVI might be effective for the diagnosis of the disturbed status instead of the human efforts based on the higher spatial resolution of satellite imagery. Appropriate diagnosis of the disturbed forests in the Baekdudaegan area considering the established vegetation types is essential for the elaboration of restoration plans. In addition, restoration target and level should be different according to the disturbed status of restoration site.

급속한 경제성장으로 인한 대규모의 개발들은 산림, 농지 등 넓은 면적의 야생 동식물의 서식지의 훼손 및 단절을 유발하였다. 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위해 국토의 자연생태계를 하나의 유기체로서 인식하고, 생태적으로 우수한 서식지의 지속적인 관리를 통하여 자연생태계를 보전해야 한다. 특히 지자체에서는 생태적 연결성뿐만 아니라 환경생태적 우수성까지 고려한 광역생태네트워크를 구축하여 지자체 개발관련 계획에 적극 반영해야 한다. 이를 위해 국토의 생태적 연결성을 평가한 광역생태축과 우리나라의 환경생태적 가치를 정량적으로 분석하고 평가하기 위한 평가지도인 국토환경성평가지도의 환경생태적 평가 결과를 활용하여 지자체 광역생태네트워크 구축 방안을 제시하였다. 그리고 경상남도 사례로 지자체 광역생태네트워크를 구축하였으며, 구축 결과 기존에 구축되었던 광역생태축의 핵심지역 $2,986km^2$과 완충지역 $2,940km^2$가 확장되어 핵심지역은 $4,049km^2$, 완충지역은 $3,006km^2$으로 결과가 도출되었다. 개발계획 시 이러한 광역생태네워크의 참조는 지자체 생물다양성 증진과 생태계 보호를 포함한 지자체 통합적 환경관리에 크게 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 문화재청의 국가유산 체계상 자연유산에 해당하는 천연기념물 식물 노거수를 중심으로 OECMs 관련 지정기준을 적용하여 발굴결정인자를 비교 검토하였고 그 결과 다음과 같다. 첫째, 정부기관에서 각 보호목적에 따라 지정·관리되는 보호지역들 가운데 이미 육상지역은 포화상태로 2030 생물다양성목표를 이행하기 위해서는 새로운 보전수단인 OECMs을 적극 도입할 필요가 있다. 둘째, OECMs은 현재 내 보전의 긍정적이고 지속적인 장기성과를 달성하는 방식으로 통치되고 관리되는 보호지역이 아닌 지리적으로 정의된 지역(CBD, 2018)으로 지정기준의 단어선택이나 적용기준의 범위, 해석의 맥락은 각기 다를 수 밖에 없으므로 이를 극복하기 위해서는 각 나라의 상황에 맞는 OECMs의 관련 법령을 따로 제정하고 정착시키는 것이 필요하다. 셋째, 천연기념물 식물의 OECMs 지정기준 검토 결과 최종 58개소가 발굴되었고. OECMs지정 기준 중 중요한 요소는 완충구역은 지정구역과는 어느 정도 이격되어 일정의 면적을 확보하고 있어야 하며 상업생산을 통한 경제활동이 일어나지 않고 생물다양성의 기준을 만족해야 한다는 것이다. 잠재자원 중 대구 도동 측백나무숲과 같이 지형적으로 격리되어 독립적으로 존재하는 지역과 삼척 궁촌리 음나무와 서천 마량리 동백나무숲과 같은 수림지 유형처럼 완충구역의 생물다양성이 확보될 수 있는 완전성이 보장된 경우로 총 23개소로 분석되었다. 천연기념물 식물의 OECMs 적용기준 검토 결과 생물다양성의 충족가치 중에 전통용도로서의 기능이 특화되어 있었으며 생태계 서비스와 문화·영적인 가치를 한국의 독특한 문화인 노거수와 당산제 문화를 통해 계승하고 있었다. 이는 생물다양성 지정기준 측면에서 새로운 생물종의 발굴없이도 인간과 자연의 생태계 네트워크 연결에 중요한 요소로 활용 될 수 있을 것이다.
