Taebaek city is located in the mountainous plateau area therefore the major industry was coal industry. According to dramatically declining of the major industry, Taebaek city is need to alternative industry which associated with considering the geographical characteristics of natural tourism resources for increasing the local economy. On the basis of these reasons, this study can be suggested ecological planning and mitigation of deterioration technique about the these study site. That is the reserved area for mountainous experience theme park. As the results of environmental ecology assessment are following as; The natural ecosystem areas, multi-layer structure forest such as forest of Pinus densiflora, forest of Quercus mongolica and deciduous forest have a high value of nature, diversity and potential. In addition, wild bird habitats were important area as a inhabitation, breeding, feeding and hiding. Therefore, on these areas should be preserved. Also, it needs to conserve on there such as more than three types of wild bird inhabitate areas, the fringe of high biological diversity, the wetland that have got good vegetation condition and the function of amphibia, reptiles crossing. In addition, inhabitation, the waterway of wetland form that have got wide waterside width needs to conserve. In conclusion, on the basis of analysis results such as conditions of plan, environment, ecological assessments, survey informations are able to suggest the connectivity of the axis of forest and management plan. Moreover, in the part of forest restoration plan, we suggest the plan of transplant for a compensation of damaged forest by land use.

Here, we investigated fungal microbiota in the understory root layer of representative well-conserved geographically segregated natural wetlands in the Korean Peninsula. We obtained 574,143 quality fungal sequences in total from soil samples in three wetlands, which were classified into 563 operational taxonomic units (OTU), 5 phyla, 84 genera. Soil texture, total nitrogen, organic carbon, pH, and electrical conductivity of soil were variable between geographical sites. We found significant differences in fungal phyla distribution and ratio, as well as genera variation and richness between the wetlands. Diversity was greater in the Jangdo islands wetland than in the other sites (Chao richness/Shannon/Simpson's for wetland of the Jangdo islands: 283/6.45/0.97 > wetland of the Mt. Gariwang primeval forest: 169/1.17/0.22 > wetland of the Hanbando geology: 145/4.85/0.91), and this variance corresponded to the confirmed number of fungal genera or OTUs (wetlands of Jangdo islands: 42/283> of Mt. Gariwang primeval forest: 32/169> of the Hanbando geology: 25/145). To assess the uniqueness of the understory root layer fungus taxa, we analyzed fungal genera distribution. We found that the percentage of fungal genera common to two or three wetland sites was relatively low at 32.3%, while fungal genera unique to each wetland site was 67.7% of the total number of identified fungal species. The Jangdo island wetland had higher fungal diversity than did the other sites and showed the highest level of uniqueness among fungal genera (Is. Jangdo wetland: 34.5% > wetland of Mt. Gariwang primeval forest: 28.6% > wetland of the Hanbando geology: 16.7%).

Blastocystis is one of the most commonly detected genera of protozoan parasites in the human intestines as well as the intestines of many other species such as pigs in several geographical regions worldwide. However, no studies have examined Blastocystis in pigs in Korea. In this study, PCR and nucleotide sequencing were performed to evaluate the genetic diversity and zoonotic potential of Blastocystis using pig fecal samples. We obtained 646 stool samples from groups of piglets, weaners, growers, finishers, and sows in Korea. A total of 390 Blastocystis-positive samples were identified, and the infection rate was 60.4%. The infection rates were significantly related to age and region. The 4 subtypes (STs) of Blastocystis confirmed by phylogenetic analysis were ST1, ST2, ST3, and ST5, indicating the high genetic diversity of Blastocystis in Korean pigs. ST5 was highly distributed in Korean pigs among detected STs in this study. Some sequences were closely related to those of Blastocystis isolated from humans. This is the first study of Blastocystis in pigs in Korea. Based on the results, Blastocystis is prevalent in Korean pigs. Although a small number of samples were obtained in some areas, the clinical development of Blastocystis infection in pigs and potential for human transmission should be further examined.

The marine brown algal genus Colpomenia has a worldwide distribution, with five species reported in Korea and Japan. However, no studies to date attempted to identify the number of species and geographical distribution of Colpomenia along Chinese coast. To fill the biodiversity knowledge gap, we analyzed 63 mitochondrial cox3 and 62 mitochondrial atp6 sequences of Colpomenia specimens collected from 30 localities along the Chinese coast. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference trees suggest the presence of at least three Colpomenia species (i.e., C. peregrina, C. claytoniae, and C. sinuosa) in China. C. peregrina and C. claytoniae are documented for the first time. C. sinuosa was only found in the South China Sea and its distribution didn't overlap with that of C. peregrina which was found in the Yellow-Bohai Sea and the East China Sea. C. claytoniae appears to be confined to three isolated islands in the East and the South China Sea, where it occurs in sympatry with, respectively, C. peregrina and C. sinuosa. Future study can focus on comparing eco-physiological differences of Colpomenia species in response to environmental variables and exploring possible genetic hybridization / introgression at inter-specific contact zones.

Background: Climate change significantly influences the geographical distribution of plant species worldwide. Selecting indicator species allows for better-informed and more effective ecosystem management in response to climate change. The Korean Peninsula is the northernmost distribution zone of warm temperate evergreen broad-leaved (WTEB) species in Northeast Asia. Considering the ecological value of these species, we evaluated the current distribution range and future suitable habitat for 13 WTEB tree species designated as climate-sensitive biological indicator species. Results: Up-to-date and accurate WTEB species distribution maps were constructed using herbarium specimens and citizen science data from the Korea Biodiversity Observation Network. Current northern limits for several species have shifted to higher latitudes compared to previous records. For example, the northern latitude limit for Stauntonia hexaphylla is higher (37° 02' N, Deokjeokdo archipelago) than that reported previously (36° 13' N). The minimum temperature of the coldest month (Bio6) is the major factor influencing species distribution. Under future climate change scenarios, suitable habitats are predicted to expand toward higher latitudes inland and along the western coastal areas. Conclusions: Our results support the suitability of WTEB trees as significant biological indicators of species' responses to warming. The findings also suggest the need for consistent monitoring of species distribution shifts. This study provides an important baseline dataset for future monitoring and management of indicator species' responses to changing climate conditions in South Korea.

A large number of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) in public databases have provided an opportunity for the systematic development of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. EST-SSRs derived from conserved coding sequences show considerable cross-species transferability in related species. In the present study, we assessed the utility of foxtail millet EST-SSRs in barnyard millet. A total of 312 EST-SSRs of foxtail millet were tested using 84 Echinochloa crus-galli germplasm accessions; a high rate of transferability (62%) and 46 primer sets (13%) were shown the polymorphism in barnyard millet. The 13% of functional EST-SSRs) was demonstrated between cereals and barnyard millet. SSR marker profile data were scored for the computation of pairwise distances as well as a Neighbor Joining (NJ) tree of all the genotypes. The averaged values of gene diversity (H_E) and polymorphism information content (PIC) were 0.213 and 0.179 within populations, respectively. The 84 barnyard millet germplasm accessions were divided into five different groups, which agreed well with their geographical origins. The exotic 12 accessions of India type barnyard millet (E. frumentacea) were all separated form Korean local collection genotype. The present results provide evidence of divergence between cultured and wild type barnyard, as a millet and grass. The polymorphic SSR markers indicated in this study were of great value in analysis of genetic diversity that can be further used for crop improvement through breeding.

본 연구는 대한지리학회 60년의 역사를 그 체제, 예산, 간행물, 회원수, 전공, 논문 등을 통해서 그것이 어떻게 변하여 왔는지를 밝히고, 동시에 학회 60년 역사의 시기구분을 시도 한것이다. 한국에 있어서 서구식 근대지리학의 역사는 불과 60년, 대한지리학회가 창립(1945년 9월11일)되면서 비로소 시작된다. 1960년 IGU 스톡홀름 총회 때, 겨우 국제적 회원국으로 가입하였고, 1963년에 대한지리학회 학회지 창간호가 탄생하였다. 이로부터 불과 40여년 만에 한국은 제 29차 국제지리학 대회를 성공적으로 치루면서 새천년을 시작하였으니 대한지리학회는 한국의 경제성장 만큼이나 급성장한 셈이다. 학회의 회원수는 1966년에 불과 116인이었으나 2004년 현재에 약 1000인에 이르고, 박사학위 소지자는 1960년에 단지 2인이었으나 2004년에 388인, 이중에 약$43\%$는 외국에서 받은 학위이다. 전공별 회원수는 경제${\cdot}$사회지리 분야가 가장 많고, 그 다음이 도시${\cdot}$인구지리 분야이다. 최근10년 동안에 생태지리학을 포함한 자연지리와 지리교육, GIS분야의 전공자수가 급증하고 있는데, 이것은 시대의 요구를 잘 반영하는 현상이다 학회지 창간호가 탄생한 것은 1963년이지만 이것이 정기간행물이 된 것은 1966년 부터이고, 1993년부터 영문판을 포함하여 계간 및 격월간으로 간행되고 있다. 학회지에 계재한 논문의 편수를 보면, 1960${\~}$70년대에는 연간 평균7편, 1980년대에 약 11편, 1990년대에 24편, 새천년에 와서 무려 52편으로 급성장하였다. 1990년대 이후 논문을 계재할 기회가 많아졌고, 회원들의 연구활동이 고무되고 있기 때문이다. 학회지에 실린 전공분야의 분포를 보면, 역시 경제${\cdot}$사회지리 분야가 가장 많고 그 다음이 생태학을 포함한 자연지리학 분야, 그리고 도시 인구지리 분야이다. 앞에 지적한 전공 회원수와 함께 논문계재 편수에 있어서도 문화${\cdot}$역사분야, 지리교육 분야, 응용 및 GIS 분야는 최근에 급성장하는 추세이다. 대한지리학회는 회원수나 그 활동으로 보아서 급성장하고 있으며 국제화 되고있다. 그리고 지난 60년의 역사를 시기별로 나누어 성격을 부여한다면 (1)창립과 혼돈기($1945{\~}1959$), (2)재건기($1960{\~}1969$), (3)체제정비기($1970{\~}1989$), (4)약진기($1990{\~}1999$), (5)국제화시기($2000{\~}\;$)로 나눌 수 있다.

1990년대 이후 산업 집적 혹은 지역혁신 관련 연구들은 폭발적으로 증가해 왔고, 그와 관련된 다양한 이론적 논의들이 활발하게 전개되고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 경제지리학의 가장 핵심적인 연구 분야의 하나인 산업 집적과 관련된 용어와 개념들의 구체성은 오히려 결여되고 있어, 새로운 학문적 조류와 환경 변화에 대응한 이론 체계의 발전에 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 지식기반경제 혹은 학습경제로의 전환을 상징적으로 나타내는 경제활동의 공간적 실체인 집적 및 클러스터와 관련된 용어와 개념 그리고 이론들을 주요 연구 문헌들의 고갈을 토대로 검토하였는바, 그 핵심적 주장은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 집적과 클러스터의 용어 및 개념적 구분이 명확히 이루어질 필요가 있다. 클러스터는 집적의 다양한 존재 형태 가운데 일부를 나타내는 개념임에도 불구하고 포괄적인 의미로 사용됨으로써 개념적 불명료성과 혼동을 가중시키고 있다. 둘째, 집적지, 혹은 클러스터에 대한 개념적 정의를 명확하게 하지 앓은 결과, 다양한 형태로 존재하는 집적지의 유형을 구분하는데 있어서도 혼란이 초래되고 있다. 다수의 연구에서 그들이 사용한 집적지 관련 용어에 대한 개념정의를 명확하게 하지 않고 유형 구분을 함으로써 집적지 유형 구분에 대한 의의를 반감시키거나 해석상의 오류를 유발하는 문제점을 노출하고 있다. 셋째, 산업 집적지 혹은 클러스터 관련 이론들 간의 수렴 현상이 나타나면서 이론들 간의 차별성과 정체성이 상실되는 문제점이 나타나고 있다.

동강할미꽃은 미나리아재비과의 다년생 초본식물로 우리나라에서는 석회암지대에서만 발견되는 희귀식물이다. 희귀성과 화훼자원으로 가치가 높아 최근 남획과 생육지 교란이 심각하다. 동강할미꽃의 보전과 자원 개발을 위해 세 가지 목적으로 연구를 수행하였다. 첫째, 밝혀지지 않은 새로운 분포지를 조사하며, 둘째, 기존 생육지의 입지환경과 식생을 분석하며, 셋째 동강할미꽃 미소생육지 별 형태와 개체군의 특징을 비교하는 것이다. 삼척시, 정선군, 평창군 및 영월군에서 동강할미꽃이 자생하는 것을 재확인하였고, 충청북도 단양군에서 새로운 분포지를 발견하였다. 이로써 남한에서 지리적 분포지는 강원도에서 확대되어 충북까지, 우리나라 석회암분포지와 거의 정확하게 일치함으로써 이 종이 호석회성 식물일 가능성을 제시한다. 분포하는 미소생육지의 87%가 바위틈이었다. 바위틈에서는 능선이나 사면에 비해 개체수는 적었으나, 유의하게 크기가 크고 꽃 수도 많으며 개화율이 높았다. 개체수가 적은 것은 바위지역에 잠재적 미소생육지 자체가 적기 때문일 것이다. 바위틈은 빛 조건이 좋고, 배수도 용이하며, 다른 종과의 경쟁도 피할 수 있으므로, 이 종이 안정적으로 정착하고 생장하는 적지로 판단된다. 호석회성 식물 여부, 입지조건에 따른 발아와 정착에 대한 포장 실험 및 분포지와 미분포지의 교차이식실험 등의 연구가 더 필요하다. 또한 분포지가 석회암지역에 국한되므로 종 보전을 위해 개체군 보전의 위협요인과 유전적 다양성에 대한 연구도 필요하다.

This study identifies the present status of multicultural broadcasting programs as multicultural phenomenon is spreading throughout Korean society and it discusses how a local broadcasting has to reflect locality and multicultural characteristic. A notion on the local of multimedia and multichannel time is expanding as a concept of emotional and psychological territory over geographical space. Therefore the locality should reflect attachment and interests of its members as well as disseminating multicultural reality. A locality for broadcasting should accept differences, reflect a cultural diversity, and satisfy its dynamics. The purpose of this study is to inquire whether a local broadcasting is performing its function as a local press and a place forpublic opinions by examining how they reflect reality of local, where an inflow of Immigrants and their cultures are altering the place as a multicultural society, and what Programs they propose. This study also presents media education for immigrants, revitalization of community, multicultural education about local citizens, and practical use of multicultural contents and small output radio as a source of supply for local broadcasting program in order to harmonize production of multlcultural media contents In local society.
