The Ecosystem Conservation Levy (formerly known as the Ecosystem Conservation Cooperation Fund) system has been in place for 20 years, and it can be said that it has now entered the settlement stage. Based on an analysis of publicly available project implementation data from 2014 to 2020, we found that: 1) As the number of return projects increases, the targets of restoration technologies are also strengthening, and it is necessary to frame a series of processes from application, creation, and monitoring for some detailed projects to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of utilizing the levy. 2) Most of the implemented projects are applied as micro-ecosystem creation, but there are many cases where the contents of the project can be seen as other project categories. This shows that the purpose of the return project needs to be approached more clearly and suggests that institutional complementation is needed from the project application stage. 3) The detailed technologies applied tend to be gradually expanding, but most of them are technologies that are not differentiated from general development projects. It is urgent to secure a more technical identity, such as a range and list of utilized technologies suitable for the characteristics and purposes of return projects. 4) It is necessary to establish a relevant evaluation system or framework to utilize the monitoring results of restoration projects. 5) There have been few cases of application of single restoration technologies since the beginning, but the content and scope of the complexity tend to expand in recent years. Even if the objectives are not comprehensive and diverse, it can be seen that many parts of the projects are oriented toward convergence, so it is necessary to conduct separate research on this. 6) As for the direction of improvement of the return project, it is possible to consider expanding the restoration and conservation focus to partially accommodate the complexity of the natural environment and human ecology. It seems that the expansion of restoration technologies that consider the role and function of humans in the natural environment should be explored.

The pond wetlands in agricultural landscape are important natural resources that carry out the function of bio-diversity conservation. However, recently, those have been gradually embedded as their utility value were disappeared. And, the assessment methods used for pond wetlands are insufficient. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the conservation value of pond wetlands by using the modified RAM, and present the improvement of assesment methods. The study sites, a total of 32 pond of 4 types by land use, were selected on the basis of Ramsar Convention. Through the analysis of precedent studies, the weighted 8 functions were adjusted. According to the assessment results, pond wetlands made the largest contribution to Fishery and Herpetile Habitat function. In addition, it also made large contribution to Floral Diversity, Wildlife Habitat, and Water Quality Protection function. On the other hand, it made a small contribution to Aesthetics and Recreation, Runoff Attenuation, Shoreline /Stream Bank Protection, and Flood/Storm Water Storage function due to the characteristics of small-scale pond wetlands. In the assessment of 8 functions, house type showed the worst assessment result, and mountain type showed the best assessment result. It is thought that those are due to land use type in terms of vicinity. 10 items among 52 of the modified RAM showed the same assessment results in all land use types. Accordingly, it is required to be deleted and modified the assessment method. On the other hand, it is required to add age, interference, and water use to the assessment method. It is thought that these results can be utilized for the development and modification of assessment methods focused on pond wetlands in rural area.

본 연구는 식물플랑크톤과 입자성 부유물질에 의해 수질문제를 야기하는 연못의 수질개선과 생태계의 기능 향상을 위해 2004년 7월부터 12월까지 수행되었다. 국내에서 대다수 연못의 관리는 자정작용과 물질순환의 생태학적 개념을 고려하지 않고 있었다. 다른 요인보다도 분수, 폭포 및 어류생물 사육에 의존되었고, 이러한 요인의 유무에 따라 수질 차이가 매우 큰 것으로 파악되었다. 연못 생태계 유지의 지속 가능성은 수질이 최우선으로 고려되는 기반이 제공되어야 한다. 물의 유입량과 유출량의 적절성과 함께 각 요소간 비율의 평형 조절이 무엇보다도 중요하다. 지속 가능성은 하나의 계에서 수평 또는 수직적 균형을 이룰 때 실현될 수 있기 때문에 이에 대한 연구 결과가 반드시 필요하다. 본 연구 결과에서 연못의 구조와 기능적 문제점이 도출된 데 대해 이러한 지속가능성을 유지하는데 가치 있는 유용성을 제공하게 되었다.

1999년 4월 17-18일 양일 간 전라북도 부안, 변산반도 남단에 위치한 곰소만의 하전 갯벌에서 3.0$\times$4.5 ㎦의 연구 지역을 설정 , box model을 이용한 물질(Chl-a, DIN, DON, TN) 수지 계산과 자정 기능의 추정을 위한 현장 조사를 실시하였다. 조사 지역의 Chl-a 소실률(-0.05mg Chl/$m^2$/hr)은 일본 아이치현 미카와만 이시키 갯벌의 7% 수준으로 나타났다. 이렇게 낮은 소실률은 낮은 식물플랑크톤 현존량, 조사 시기의 낮은 온도에 따른 대사율 감소 그리고 조사 지역의 낮은 대형저서동물량 때문인 것으로 추정되었다. 질소의 측면에서 물질 수지의 계산 결과, 13.5 $\textrm{km}^2$ 면적의 하전 갯벌에서는 하루 동안 TN및 PON의 소실률이 각각 8.36$\times$$10^{2}$, 5.36$\times$$10^{3}$kgN/day로 그리고 식물플랑크톤 소실에 따른 PON 소실률이 1.62$\times$$10^{2}$kg N/day로 추정되어 갯벌이 연안해역에서 질소 제거에 중요한 역할을 수행하고 있음을 시사하였다. 곰소만 하전 갯벌에서의 PON 소실률을 기존의 1개 하수처리장 평균 처리비용과 비교 할 때 13.5$\textrm{km}^2$ 면적의 하전 갯벌의 수질 정화기능은 대규모 하수처리장 2개 이상에 상당하는 경제적 가치를 지니는 것으로 나타났다

습지를 대상으로 한 기능 평가는 습지의 현 상태를 면밀히 파악하기 위한 기본 단계일 뿐만 아니라 습지를 '우리에게 수많은 편익을 제공하는 하나의 자원이자 재화'로 인식하는 '생태계 서비스' 개념의 토대가 되는 중요한 과정이다. 20세기말 미국에서부터 시작된 습지 기능 평가는 WET, EMAP-wetlands 그리고 HGM의 순서로 발달하였다. 21세기에 접어들며 보다 간편하고 신속하게 수행 가능한 RAM이 기능 평가 개발의 주류를 이루기 시작하였다. 그 이후에는 세 가지 수준의 위계를 갖는 기능 평가의 체계가 갖추어졌으며 기능 평가의 대상과 목적 등에 따라 전략적으로 활용되는 형태로 발전하였다. 우리나라 또한 미국의 HGM과 RAM을 토대로 하여 일부 항목과 내용들을 개선하는 형태로 한 기능 평가가 2001년부터 수행되기 시작하였다. 이후 HGM과 RAM의 약점과 단점을 보완할 뿐만 아니라 우리나라의 환경 특성 및 실정에 맞게 개선된 형태의 기능 평가 도구들이 개발되기 시작하였다. 국내외 습지 기능 평가 연구 동향파악 및 선진국과의 비교 분석을 통해 국내 기능 평가에 있어 우선적으로 보완이 필요한 것들로 다음의 사항들을 제안하는 바이다: 1) 조류와 같이 우리나라의 현실을 고려한 지시자를 활용한 기능 평가 도구가 필요하다. 2) 우리나라 습지의 많은 면적을 차지하고 있는 연안습지를 대상으로 하는 최적화된 기능 평가 도구 개발이 필요하다. 3) 연구자 및 정책담당자들 간의 소통과 협력 공조를 유도할 수 있는 네트워크 구축과 확장이 필요하다.

A wetland is an ecosystem which is the most useful and highly-energetic transition area. This study has been carried out to develop the wetland function assessment methods and apply on the natural wetlands (Mul-young-ari wetland in Jeju-island and Bangdong wetland in Taejon Metropolitan city) using RAM (Rapid Assessment Method). The RAM is useful method for assessing the wetland functions in terms of general functions acquired by once or twice onsite surveying. Eight functions of 2-12 variables each are analyzed for assessing the wetland functions. The results are as follows : 1) The conservation values of two wetlands are "High". 2) In Mul-young-ari wetland, such functions as groundwater discharge, floral diversity and wildlife habitat, shoreline/stream bank protection are relatively high, but some functions such as flood/storm water storage, aesthetics and recreation are "Moderate" - "High". 3) In Bangdong wetland, such functions as floral diversity and wildlife habitat, groundwater discharge, flood/storm water storage, aesthetics and recreation are high, and another functions are "Moderate" - "High". The taxonomy of this study stems from assessing functions of inland wetlands using indices of RAM. So It is needed that consequent studies are to be performed with verifying the variables and indices.

The purpose of this study was to examine the ecological characteristics of herbaceous communities by systematic and scientific analysis of their structure and diversity in the Midongsan Arboretum and to offer raw data for a long-tenn monitoring study. The importance value and diversity index of species appearing in twenty plots from July to September, 2004 were analyzed and a management plan for these communities is presented. Vascular plants were represented by 60 taxa of 23 families, 51 genera, 50 species and 10 varieties. Based on the results of importance value analysis, the most dominant species was Artemisia princeps var. orientalis, followed by Setaria viridis and Erigeron canadensis. The diversity index analysis showed that plot no. 5 had the highest H' and H'_{max}$(2.0135 and 2.6391). It's species composition was comparatively more diverse and it's structure more stable than other plots. Artemisia montana and Dactylis glomerata showed the highest correlation between species. Because herbaceous communities are important biological habitats and provide important function in environmental conservation, it is important to properly preserve these communities. At the same time, in order to preserve genetic resources and improve spatial function, it may be necessary to consider removing herbaceous communities in certain areas. In the future, the relations between physicochemical soil properties and herbaceous communities should be examined and community movement should be studied.

The change of environmental factors with flow rates were studied quantitatively for two rivers, the Nakdong River and the Sin stream, which have different basins in ecosystem structures, during short period after a heavy rain. In the Nakdong River, transparency, DO, alkalinity and hardness were negatively correlated with the flow rate by logarithmic function, but the concentration of SiO2 was relatively constant regardless of the flow chage. In the Sin stream, transparency, alkalinity, hardness and the concentration of NH3-N, NO2-N and SO4= showed negative correlation with the flow rate by logarithmic function. The ratios of maximum to minimum values for aquatic environmental factors during the samller than that for flow rate in the respective rivers (28 in the Nakdong R.; 50 in the Sin S.). Immediately after the heavy rain, the concentrations of NO2-N, NH3-N and PO4-P in the Sin stream were 8, 6 and 1 times as high as those in the Nakdong River, respectively, but in the stable flow state, those became 94, 25 and more than 10 times, respectively. The load for most of the dissolved environmental constituents changed similarly to the flow rate in both rivers. It is notable that, at the stable flow state, the loads for NH3-N (59g/sec) and NO2-N (3.3g/sec) in the Sin stream were 4.3 and 1.3 times as high as those in the Nakdong River.

This study was carried out to propose the functional assessment and a wise use strategy on the ecologically valuable 'village wetlands' distributed in living area in Geumsan gun, Chungnam province, Korea. The targets of the functional evaluation were 24 wetlands, selected from 123 village wetlands, where villages and agricultural lands or core ecosystems are located within living area near the wetland and wetlands with historical and cultural significance. The functional evaluation was carried out by RAM (Rapid Assessment Model) and the conservation strategies were suggested. As a result of the functional evaluation, 9 wetlands were rated 'high' (2 'absolute conservation' and 7 'conservation' strategies), 14 wetlands were rated 'medium' ('enhancement' strategies), and one wetland was rated 'low' ('restore or enhancement' strategy). In consideration of the results of the functional evaluation, interviews with village residents, and historic meaning, 6 important village wetlands were selected that require additional management strategies, such as conservation, enhancement, and restoration. 2 wetlands were from "absolute conservation" strategy and 4 wetlands derived from "conservation" and "enhancement" strategy wetlands in consideration of the ecological connectivity of wetlands, the use of surrounding land, and the function as a biological habitat. The wise use and conservation strategy was specifically proposed respectively.
