생태계는 인간, 생물 무생물적 환경의 집합체이며, 경관은 생태계가 단위지역에 나타나는 현상이다. 이러한 경관은 다양한 경관요소가 시 공간적으로 나타나는 토지 모자이크이며, 토지이용과 피복 변화는 경관의 구조를 변화시키는 주요 요인이다. 본 연구에서는 경관을 구조적 기능적 측면에서 정량화하는 경관지수와 생태계용역가치(Ecosystem Service Value: ESV)를 이용하여 대구광역도시권의 산림경관의 시 공간적 변화패턴에 관하여 분석하였다. 분석결과, 산림경관의 잠식과 파편화는 택지 및 공업단지조성 등의 대규모 개발행위 보다는 도로 등의 선형적 개발에 의해 발생되었으며, 핵심지역의 상대적 비율은 점진적으로 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 현상은 생물종의 주요 서식처가 되는 핵심지역을 감소시켜 그 건전성을 저하시킬 가능성이 있을 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 ESV가 산림경관의 면적변화와 밀접한 관계를 가지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구결과들은 향후 생태계를 대상으로 한 개발과 보존의 논리 사이에서 객관적인 평가의 기틀을 마련하고, 광역도시계획 등의 개발계획 수립에서 생태계 가치를 충분히 반영하기 위한 기본적인 척도로 활용 가능할 것이다.

In an effort to preserve biodiversity in increasingly fragmented green patches, Korea has been installing eco-corridors over or under some arterial or expressways. In a survey of 43 such eco-corridors installed up until the year 2003, some problems and issues were identified. Some selected overseas eco-corridors were also investigated to find implications for the improvements of future installations in Korea. Major findings are; - For most existing eco-corridors, target species are not specified and locations of the eco-corridors are not well considered, and consequently it is questionable if wildlifes are crossing them - Most of existing eco-corridors lack supporting facilities such as fences that guide wildlife to cross them and prevent them from running into the road - Planting on the eco-corridors is not sufficient, not diverse enough in species, and not very considerate of wildlife but designed and planted in a similar manner as in urban parks - Where target species are not well specified, the location, width, cross section, and other aspects of the eco-corridors can not be optimized - It is suggested that eco-corridors are planned at early stages of road planning so that the number and locations of eco-corridor(s) decided as necessary and even the alignment and design of roads consider the installation of eco-corridors in advance - Monitoring of wildlife crossings is needed for improved eco-corridor planning and design - Nationwide green network plan is desirable to be made first and eco-corridors fit into it.

To predict urban growth according to changes in landcover, probability factors werecal culated and mapped. Topographic, geographic and social and political factors were used as prediction variables for constructing probability maps of urban growth. Urban growth-related factors included elevation, slope, aspect, distance from road,road ratio, distance from the main city, land cover, environmental rating and legislative rating. Accounting for these factors, probability maps of urban growth were constr uctedusing frequency ratio (FR) and logistic regression (LR) methods and the effectiveness of the results was verified by the relative operating characteristic (ROC). ROC values of the urban growth probability index (UGPI) maps by the FR and LR models were 0.937 and 0.940, respectively. The LR map had a slightly higher ROC value than the FR map, but the numerical difference was slight, with both models showing similar results. The FR model is the simplest tool for probability analysis of urban growth, providing a faster and easier calculation process than other available tools. Additionally, the results can be easily interpreted. In contrast, for the LR model, only a limited amount of input data can be processed by the statistical program and a separate conversion process for input and output data is necessary. In conclusion, although the FR model is the simplest way to analyze the probability of urban growth, the LR model is more appropriate because it allows for quantitative analysis.

Mapping radiation heat flux of urban area is essential for urban design and landscape planning. Because controlling urban geometry and generating green space are important urban design strategies for reducing urban heat, urban planner and designer need to recognize the micro urban heat distribution for adequate urban planning. This study suggests a new methodology for mapping urban radiation heat flux in a micro scale considering buildings and trees' shade. For doing that, firstly, we calculate net radiation for each urban surfaces (building, road (not shaded, building shaded, tree shaded), ground (not shaded, building shaded, tree shaded), tree (not shaded, building shaded)). Then, by multiplying the area ratio of surfaces to the net radiation, we can obtain the radiation heat flux in micro-scale. The estimated net radiation results were found to be robust with a $R^2$ of 90%, which indicates a strong explanatory power of the model. The radiation heat flux map for 12h $17^{th}$ August explains that areas under the building and tree have lower net radiation heat flux, indicating that shading is a good strategy for reducing incident radiation. This method can be used for developing thermal friendly urban plan.

The promotion of walking and bicycling is recently a hot topic in the urban planning and design field. Many planners have already examined the many components of the land use-transportation connection and built environment-physical activity link. A rapidly growing area of urban form research is to measure the level of walk-ability in urban environments. With this background, this research conducted a preliminary study to develop the evaluation indicators of pedestrian environments. Based on the literature reviews on walking or pedestrian environments, we proposed the seventeen indicators related with pedestrian facilities, road attributes and walking environment. We also performed a questionary survey to evaluate the satisfaction of their neighborhood pedestrian environments for 302 randomly selected adults living in the City of Changwon, Gyeongsangnam-do. Finally, this research provided the valid model to evaluate the effects of physical environmental factors on the walking satisfaction using factor analysis and multiple regression analysis.

도로 증가로 산림파편화 현상이 심화됨에 따라 도로 주변의 산림이 영향을 받았을 것이란 가정 하에 도로 거리에 따른 산림 내 온 습도 관계에 대해 연구를 진행하였다. 산림 모니터링을 통해 세동, 공주 지역의 침엽수림과 활엽수림에 대해 온 습도를 도로경계에서 산림내부까지 각각 10m, 20m, 30m 총 3개의 지점으로 관찰하였고, 영동 지역은 도로 내부 구조물로 인해 0m, 10m, 20m 3개 지점으로 달리 관찰하였다. 연구기간동안 수목 생장의 변화량이 적다고 판단되어, 도로에 의한 산림 내부의 온습도 변화를 2017년도 9월부터 2018년도 1월까지 각 지역 및 성상별로 도로로부터 산림내부까지 일정간격을 기준으로 온 습도를 교차, 비교하여 도로 등 선형개발로 인한 산림내부의 온 습도 변화를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 특히, 주 야간에 따라 소형기상기록장치(HOBO data logger, MX2301, Onset Corp.)를 이용해 각 지점 마다의 온 습도 변화량을 측정하였으며 월별로 평균을 구하여 각 지점 간의 특성을 분석하였다. 2017년 9월 공주 침엽수림의 경우, 평균 주간 온도가 산림경계에서 $26.05^{\circ}C$로 $25.48^{\circ}C$인 산림외부보다 $0.57^{\circ}C$ 높고 $24.82^{\circ}C$인 산림내부보다 $1.23^{\circ}C$ 높아 산림내부로 들어갈수록 온도가 내려갔다. 야간에는 2017년 11월 세동 활엽수림에서 산림경계가 $0.04^{\circ}C$, 산림외부는 $0.35^{\circ}C$, 산림내부는 $0.64^{\circ}C$로 산림 외부에서 산림 내부로 들어갈수록 더 높은 온도를 띄는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 도로에 따른 산림의 온 습도 조절 능력은 도로경계에서 산림 내부로 거리가 멀어질수록 크고 변동성이 적었으며 산림 내부 성상에서는 침엽수에서 온 습도 조절 능력이 더 큼이 확인되었다. 본 연구를 통해 도로 등 인위적 선형개발에 따른 산림 및 주변 지역의 온 습도의 높은 변화량을 야기해, 수목 생장에 영향이 있을 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 산림 생장의 영향을 미치는 선형개발의 정량적 범위를 파악하기 위한 연구 및 선형 개발 시 야기되는 산림 변화의 관리를 위한 토대가 될 것이다.

Background: The creation of the National Institute of Ecology began as a national alternative project to preserve mudflats instead of constructing the industrial complexes by reclamation, and achieve regional development. On the other hand, at the national level, the research institute for ecology was needed to cope with the worsening conditions for maintaining biodiversity due to accelerated climate change such as global warming and increased demand for development. In order to meet these needs, the National Institute of Ecology has the following objectives: (1) carries out studies for ecosystem change due to climate change and biodiversity conservation, (2) performs ecological education to the public through exhibition of various ecosystem models, and (3) promotes regional development through the ecological industry. Furthermore, to achieve these objectives, the National Institute of Ecology thoroughly followed the basic principles of ecology, especially restoration ecology, in the process of its construction. We introduce the principles and cases of ecological restoration applied in the process. Results: We minimized the impact on the ecosystem in order to harmonize with the surrounding environment in all the processes of construction. We pursued passive restoration following the principle of ecological restoration as a process of assisting the recovery of an ecosystem degraded for all the space except in land where artificial facilities were introduced. Reference information was applied thoroughly in the process of active restoration to create biome around the world, Korean peninsula forests, and wetland ecosystems. In order to realize true restoration, we pursued the ecological restoration in a landscape level as the follows. We moved the local road 6 and high-voltage power lines to underground to ensure ecological connectivity within the National Institute of Ecology campus. To enhance ecological diversity, we introduced perch poles and islands as well as floating leaved, emerged, wetland, and riparian plants in wetlands and mantle communities around the forests of the Korean Peninsula in the terrestrial ecosystem. Furthermore, in order to make the public aware of the importance of the intact nature, the low-lying landscape elements, which have disappeared due to excessive land use in most areas of Korea, was created by imitating demilitarized zone (DMZ) landscape that has these landscape elements. Conclusions: The National Institute of Ecology was created in an eco-friendly way by thoroughly reflecting the principles of ecology to suit its status and thus the impact on the existing ecosystem was minimized. This concept was also designed to be reflected in the process of operation. The results have become real, and a result of analysis on carbon budget analysis is approaching the carbon neutrality.
