This study aims to find some characteristics for the facilities of the 'Korea Forest Welfare for Life Cycle' through the domestic case analysis, so that we draw implications applicable to the policy on Korea Forest Welfare. For this, we brought and analyzed statistical data together from scattered sources. As the characteristics for the facilities of the Korea Forest Welfare for Life Cycle, first, there is the quantitative imbalance of forest welfare institutions for the each life cycle. Second, there is a lack of facilities in urban areas. Third, the facilities are mostly located in national or public forests. And, based on those characteristics, we suggest several things as follows that is applicable to the related policy. First, it is necessary to meet the needs of facilities that need to be built evenly for each life-cycle. Second, facilities of the Forest Welfare for Life Cycle which is adjacent to the life zone should be built more to increase accessibility. Third, forests in Korea are almost comprised of private forests. Using only national and public forests has an unfavorable condition to confer a benefits of forest welfare on the people evenly than using national, public and private forests all together. Therefore, there is a need to invigorate private capital and utilize private forests so that the favorable condition can be made to confer a benefits of forest welfare on the people evenly and adjust balance of the quantity for the facilities of forest welfare.

There are remarkable differences in growth and morphological characters of roots between mountain and field cultivated Panax ginseng. Growth of root in mountain cultivated ginseng was much slower than that of field cultivated ginseng. However, the factor affecting the retarded growth in mountain ginseng was not known. Soil analysis revealed that phosphorus (P) content of mountain soil was exceptionally low at least ten-fold lower compared to that of field soil. Thus, we suggest that low availability of P in mountain soil may be one of the limiting factors for growth of ginseng in mountain soil environment. We had monitored the growth of ginseng plants after one and three years of phosphate fertilizer application. Three kinds of phosphate fertilizers: fused magnesium phosphate, fused superphosphate, and single superphosphate were applied to mountain soil. Application of phosphate fertilizers increased the fresh-, dry weight, and diameter of ginseng roots and resulted in increased P accumulation in roots. These results demonstrate that slow growth of ginseng in mountain soil environment might be attributed to the low P content in mountain soil. Thus, analysis of P amount in mountain soil will be a good indicator for the selection of suitable site the ginseng cultivation in forest.

This study developed an inventory, using GIS-based resource assessment, for assisting forest management planning. The major inventory contents were relationally integrated, using field sample plots, to extract and calculate attributes such as general status, forest stand condition, forest site condition, forest site and soil area (ha) and growing stock (weight, in tons). Evaluating the efficiency of forest management plan implementations is critical to effective health and sustainability at a larger functional level, specifically in bamboo forests. This inventory is a valuable tool for decision-making, such as developing a long-term management plan for sustainably managing bamboo resources.

The purpose of this study is to establish a linkage between local forest human resources policies and the analysis of forest resource conditions in Gyeongsangbuk-do. In particular, the study aims to gather insights from students enrolled local formal education institutions through a demand survey and their opinions. These findings would serve as basic data for the formulation of medium- and long-term policies. According to the results of the analysis, all surveyed groups expressed a desire to pursue careers, entrepreneurship, or further school education based on their forestry majors. Among, the most important needs identified for local human resources, receiving training related to field practice and access to information emerged as paramount. In addition, it was observed that educational programs were conducted on weekends and during school vacations, with integration into the school curriculum to ensure participants not only benefit from self-development but also receive administrative support. A notable observation in the survey results was the absence of a network among forest professionals, signifying a key weakness within the forest sector in Gyeongsangbuk-do. The results of this study hold significant value in terms of analyzing and sharing the educational preferences of forest human resources in Gyeongsangbuk-do, thereby serving as basic research data for proposing policies. In the future, by expanding the scope to include case studies and forest human resource preference analyses through cooperation with other local governments and institutions, the research can contribute to the establishment of national-level policies for forest human resources on a broader scale.

Space-borne multi-sensor data could provide fire scar and bum severity mapping. This paper will present detail mapping of burnt areas in Cheongyange Yesan of Korea with ETM+ image. Burn severity map based on ETM+ image was found to be affected by strong topographic illumination effects in mountainous forest area. Topographic effect is a factor which causes errors in classification of high spatial resolution image like IKONOS image. Minnaert constants J( in each band of ETM+ image is derived for reduction of mountainous terrain effects. Finally, this paper computes quantitative analysis of forest fire damage by each forest types.

The purpose of this study is to suggest objective basic data for Kung-dong neighborhood park management through the quantitative analysis of user's behaviors and satisfaction in Chungnam National University campus forest. Most users lived in Kung-dong, Oun-dong, Shinsung-dong near the campus forest. Their visiting motivations were for taking a walk, health and fresh air. Therefore, it is important that the university should seek a supervision for improving functions of the campus forest. They are using about 300 users per day in campus forest. We should present a supervision programs which make them more useful and protective.

This study compared the growth characteristics of A. gigas according to the transplanting season, in the cultivation located in Yeongju, Gyeongsangbuk-do, transplanted in the autumn and spring. As a result of that the plant survival rate were observed the highest autumn transplanting (9.4%; autumn-92.2%, spring-82.8%) and bolting rate were observed lowest spring transplanting (7.1%; autumn-37.3%, spring-30.2%). Growth characteristics (height, leaf length and width, stem diameter) were observed the highest autumn transplanting in June and highest spring transplanting in August. The early growth is high growth due to long rooting time in autumn transplanting, but the difference in the ground growth between the two experiments was insignificant when the main growth period was from June to August. Further analysis of the growth characteristics and marker components of roots of A. gigas can be used to determine the optimal planting time and the establishment of high quality cultivation technology.
