A natural wetland in the Nakdong River basin which effectively removes non-point source pollutants was investigated for 2 years to understand wetland topography, vegetation types, and water quality characteristics. The water depth of the natural wetland was in the range of 0.5~1.9 m which is suitable for the growth of non-emergent hydrophytes. The wetland has a high length to width ratio (3.3:1) and a relatively large wetland to watershed area ratio (0.057). A broad-crested weir at the outlet increases the retention time of the wetland whose hydrology is mainly dependent on storm events. The concentrations of dissolved oxygen in the growing season and the winter season showed anoxic and oxic conditions, respectively. Diurnal variations of DO and pH in the growing season were also observed due to weather change and submerged plants. COD and TP concentrations were low in the winter season due to low inflow rate and increased retention time. Increased TP concentrations in the spring season were caused by degradation of dead wetland plants. Nitrogen in the wetland was mostly in organic nitrogen form (>75%). During the growing season, ammonium concentration was high but nitrate nitrogen concentration was low, possibly due to anoxic and low pH conditions which are adverse conditions for ammonificaiton and nitrification. The results of this study can be used as preliminary data for design, operation, monitoring and management of a constructed wetland which is designed to treat diffuse pollutants in the Nakdong river watershed.

The floating islands have been constructed for the water quality improvement and the biodiversity conservation in an disturbed aquatic ecosystem. We made floating islands consisted of a special float and substrates of coconut fibers implanted with four emergent macrophytes such as Phragmites australis, Zizania latifolia, Iris pseudoacorus, Typha angustifolia. Vegetation structure and plant growth were compared between on the floating islands and on ground in order to select suitable plants for the construction of floating islands. Emergent-macrophytic vegetation on the floating islands showed lower coverages and higher plant biodiversity due to natural introduction of various hydrophytes and hygrophytes. Shoot density was increased on floating islands except for Zizania latifolia. From the point of coverage and density of plants, Phragmites australis and Iris pseudoacorus were suitable for floating islands. Total biomass of emergent macrophytes was decreased on the floating islands. The belowground/aboveground biomass ratio of floating islands was higher than that of the ground. Out of planted macrophytes, Iris pseudoacorus with a high belowground/aboveground biomass ratio could be evaluated a suitable plant for the floating islands because a plenty of its root is profitable to adapt with the nutrient-limited environment of floating islands.

This study was performed to build up the ecological guidelines to grasp the structure of the vegetation change which is due to river rehabilitation. Anyway, river ecosystem and function has been destroyed owing to river development. It is important that river vegetation supplies ecological corridor and biotope. Two survey sites(Wonsungcheon and Pungseocheon)were investigated in the aspect of plant ecosystem and structure to settle the practical concept of river ecosystem. Each survey site was subdivided to five plots. The site was surveyed through the belttransect method. Wonsungcheon gets more seriously polluted as it runs to the urban area. In other words, there are On the other hand, Pungseocheon has more naturality but its downstream is under the pressure of various wood plants in the upstream area, but downstream area is dominated by naturalized plants such as Bidens frondosa, Panicum dichotomiflorum, etc. Riverbank of downstream has been changed into farm and parking lot. development. It should be preserved definitely because it still has abundant naturality and wetland which formed a biotope. The objective of the research is to find out the river retrogression and maintenance methods based on the riparian vegetation structure. To manage the river ecologically, hydrophytes should be induced partly for natural purification after the riverside is rehabilitated. The vegetation should be induced step by step to restore natural river and steady monitoring and research are required.

This study aims to understand wetland distribution and type-specific classification features with a focus on Tumen River downstream in China by adjusting and improving the classification system used in Korea with a reference to international wetland classification systems and their criteria & methods. In this study, wetland types were determined based on hydrology, vegetation, and soil conditions, which are the most basic elements of wetlands. Also, topography analytical map, vegetation analytical map, and soil analytical map for wetland classification were developed and used based on currently available topography map, vegetation map, and soil map. In addition, codes were defined based on topography, location, hydrology, and vegetation. The result shows that, in the Tumen River downstream, wetlands are often found near natural revetment and terrace land & river-bed lakes. In the discovered wetlands, riverine, lacustrine, and inland wetlands were mostly found at system level. Riparian and human-made wetlands were also identified. At a sub-system level, perennial and seasonal wetlands were found to a similar degree. At a class level, perennial open water, herbal plants, and shrubs were mostly found and sandy plain, hydrophytes, and forest tree types were also observed. An overall detailed classification shows that a total of 17 wetland types were found and a large distribution of sand dunes and river-bed lakes, which are scarce in Northeast Asia, indicates that other rare wetland types such as palustrine seasonal sand plain wetland and lacustrine seasonal sand plain wetland may be discovered.

제주고사리삼은 제주도의 동북부 지역에 매우 제한적으로 분포하였다. 이 일대는 상록활엽수림 및 관목림, 초지 등의 식생이 분포하고 있으며, 제주고사리삼 자생지는 이들 지역에 독립적인 소택지 형태로 나타났다. 자생지는 지형적으로 주변 보다 낮은 함몰구 형태로써 크기와 형태는 다양하게 나타났다. 자생지에 분포하는 관속식물은 61과 112속 147종 총 147분류군으로 조사되었으며, 이 중 피자식물이 136 분류군으로 대부분을 차지하였다. 제주고사리삼 자생지 내의 식물상에 대한 생활형 분석 결과 주변의 식생과 다른 형태를 갖고 있으며, 특히, 일년생식물과 수생식물의 비율이 높게 나타났다. 이러한 식물상의 안정적인 유지를 위해서는 자생지환경의 보존이 매우 중요하며, 이를 위해서는 자생지를 포함한 주변지역에 대한 전체적인 보호구역 설정이 절실하다고 판단된다.

람사르 습지 지역인 무제치늪의 식물다양성을 파악하기 위해 4개의 늪을 중심으로 2009년 5월부터 2010년 6월에 걸쳐 식물상을 조사하였다. 그 결과 무제치늪 일대의 관속식물은 55과 105속 128종 1아종 16변종 4품종 등 총 149분류군으로 분류되었다. 희귀식물은 자주땅귀개, 작은황새풀, 끈끈이주걱, 땅귀개, 이삭귀개, 꽃창포, 좀바늘사초 등 7분류군이 관찰되었고, 한국특산식물 1분류군, 식물구계학적 특정식물 19분류군, 귀화식물 3분류군이 관찰되었다. 특히, 작은황새풀은 식물지리학적, 진화적으로 중요한 식물로서, 보전하기 위해 심층적인 연구가 요구된다. 무제치늪과 가장 유사한 습생(수생)식물을 가지고 있는 산지습지는 신불산고산습지로 나타났다. 선행연구와 비교결과, 무제치늪 식물상이 조금씩 변화하고 있어서, 지속적인 관심과 적절한 대책이 마련되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
