Conversion of rice paddy field to upland has been accelerated as the central government incentivizes more profitable upland crop cultivation. The objective of this study was to investigate the current status and conversion trend from paddy to upland for the reservoir irrigation districts. Total 605 of reservoir irrigation districts whose beneficiary area is greater than 200 ha were selected for paddy-to-upland conversion analysis using the land cover maps provided by the EGIS of the Ministry of Environment. The land cover data of 2019 was used to analyze up-to-date upland conversion status and its correlation with city proximity, while land cover change between 2007 and 2019 was used for paddy-to-upland conversion trend analysis. Overall 14.8% of the entire study reservoir irrigation area was converted to upland cultivation including greenhouse and orchard areas. Approximately the portion of paddy area was reduced by 17.8% on average, while upland area was increased by 4.9% over the 12 years from 2007 to 2019. This conversion from paddy to upland cultivation was more pronounced in the Gyoenggi and Gyeongsang regions compared to other the Jeolla and Chungcheong provinces. The increase of upland area was also more notable in proximity of the major city. This study findings may assist to identify some hot reservoir districts of the rapid conversion to upland cultivation and thus plan to transition toward upland irrigation system.

습지 생태계는 탄소저장고, 대기 온·습도 조절 등의 기능을 수행하는 만큼 면밀한 관리가 요구된다. 습지의 규모와 생태계는 밀접한 연관성을 가지므로 그 규모를 우선적으로 파악할 필요가 있으며, 이를 위해 지표면의 상태를 산지, 습지, 수역 등의 항목으로 구분한 토지피복지도가 고려될 수 있다. 현재, 환경부에서 운영 중인 환경공간정보서비스(https://egis.me.go.kr/)에서는 각각 30 m, 5 m, 1 m의 공간 해상도와 7, 22, 41가지 분류 항목을 갖는 대분류, 중분류, 세분류로 구분된 토지피복지도를 제공하며 이러한 자료들은 모두 1년 이상의 시간 해상도를 갖는다. 습지의 경우, 계절에 따른 환경 변화로 인한 규모의 변동성이 크게 나타날 수 있기 때문에 1년 이하의 시간 해상도를 갖는 고품질 토지피복 분류 정보가 요구된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 자료의 낮은 시간 해상도 보완을 목표로, 1개월과 30 m의 시·공간 해상도를 갖는 토지피복지도를 구축하기 위한 방법론을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위해 Landsat-8 등과 같은 다양한 인공위성 자료를 수집하고, Support Vector Machine 등과 같은 머신러닝 기법을 적용하였다. 최종적으로 습지보전법에서 지정한 습지보호지역 중 내륙습지 26개소를 대상으로, 본 연구로부터 산출된 토지피복지도를 기존 환경공간정보서비스 내 대분류 토지피복지도와 비교·평가하였다.

본 연구는 한강유역 (35,770 km²)을 대상으로 RUSLE (Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation)과 WATEM/SEDEM (The Water and Tillage Erosion Model and Sediment Delivery Model)의 유사이동식을 활용하여 인간활동과 기후변화로 인한 유사량을 평가하였다. 대상유역에 영향을 주는 16곳의 기상관측소에서 제공하는 분 단위 누적강수량 (2000-2019), 농촌진흥청 토양도, 국토지리정보원 DEM (Digital Elevation Model), 환경공간정보서비스 (EGIS) 2020년 세분류 토지이용도를 활용하여 RUSLE과 WATEM/SEDEM 유사이동식에 필요한 강우침식인자(R), 토양침식인자 (K), 지형인자 (L·S), 식생피복인자 (C), 그리고 보전관리인자 (P)를 구축하였으며, SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool)으로 모의한 표준유역 단위 연도별(2000-2019) 유사량 결과를 기준으로 WATEM/SEDEM 유사량 계수 (KTC)를 검·보정하였다. 토양침식 산정 입력자료 중 강우량으로 산정하는 강우침식인자는 기후변화를 보여주는 인자, 토지피복에 따라 다른 식생피복인자와 보전관리인자는 인간활동을 나타내는 인자로 설정하였다. 강우침식인자는 2010년대 평균값을 활용하여 현재의 유사량을 평가하였으며, 분 단위 자료가 없는 과거의 경우 직접적인 계산에 어려움이 있어, 연평균 강수량과의 관계로 추정한 1980년대 평균값을 활용하여 기후변화로 인한 영향을 평가하였다. 식생피복인자와 보전관리인자는 1980년대 토지이용도를 활용하여 산정한 결과로 인간활동에 의한 유사량 평가에 사용되었다. 대상유역의 유사량은 RUSLE 모형의 토양침식량과 WATEM/SEDEM 유사이동량을 mass balance로 분석하며, 다른 인자들은 고정한 상태로 과거 강우침식인자, 식생피복인자와 보전관리인자를 적용하여 인간활동과 기후변화로 인한 유사량 변화를 분석하고자 한다.

In this study, the impacts of local meteorology caused by tidal changes in the West Sea on ozone distributions in the Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA) were analyzed using a meteorological model (WRF) and an air quality (CMAQ) model. This study was carried out during the day (1200-1800 LST) between August 3 and 9, 2016. The total area of tidal flats along with the tidal changes was calculated to be approximately $912km^2$, based on data provided by the Environmental Geographic Information Service (EGIS) and the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries (MOF). Modeling was carried out based on three experiments, and the land cover of the tidal flats for each experiment was designed using the coastal wetlands, water bodies (i.e., high tide), and the barren or sparsely vegetated areas (i.e., low tide). The land cover parameters of the coastal wetlands used in this study were improved in the herbaceous wetland of the WRF using updated albedo, roughness length, and soil heat capacity. The results showed that the land cover variation during high tide caused a decrease in temperature (maximum $4.5^{\circ}C$) and planetary boundary layer (PBL) height (maximum 1200 m), and an increase in humidity (maximum 25%) and wind speed (maximum $1.5ms^{-1}$). These meteorological changes increased the ozone concentration (about 5.0 ppb) in the coastal areas including the tidal flats. The increase in the ozone concentration during high tide may be caused by a weak diffusion to the upper layer due to a decrease in the PBL height. The changes in the meteorological variables and ozone concentration during low tide were lesser than those occurring during high tide. This study suggests that the meteorological variations caused by tidal changes have a meaningful effect on the ozone concentration in the SMA.

The increasing interest in soil moisture data from satellite imagery for applications in hydrology, meteorology, and agriculture has led to the development of methods to produce variable-resolution soil moisture maps. Research on accurate soil moisture estimation using satellite imagery is essential for remote sensing applications. The purpose of this study is to generate a soil moisture estimation map for a test area using KOMPSAT-3/3A and KOMPSAT-5 SAR imagery and to quantitatively compare the results with soil moisture data from the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission provided by NASA, with a focus on accuracy validation. In addition, the Korean Environmental Geographic Information Service (EGIS) land cover map was used to determine soil moisture, especially in agricultural and forested regions. The selected test area for this study is the western part of Jeju, South Korea, where input data were available for the soil moisture estimation algorithm based on the Water Cloud Model (WCM). Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery from KOMPSAT-5 HV and Sentinel-1 VV were used for soil moisture estimation, while vegetation indices were calculated from the surface reflectance of KOMPSAT-3 imagery. Comparison of the derived soil moisture results with SMAP (L-3) and SMAP (L-4) data by differencing showed a mean difference of 4.13±3.60 p% and 14.24±2.10 p%, respectively, indicating a level of agreement. This research suggests the potential for producing highly accurate and precise soil moisture maps using future South Korean satellite imagery and publicly available data sources, as demonstrated in this study.
