Based on the Leaf Area Index (LAI) data derived from remote sensing information and eco-climate data, the responses of regional ecosystem variations in seasonal and interannual scales to the East Asian monsoon are studied in this paper. It is found that the vegetation ecosystems of eastern China are remarkably correlated with the East Asian monsoon in seasonal and interannual scales. In the seasonal timescale, the obvious variations of the vegetation ecosystems occur with the development of the East Asian monsoon from the south in the spring to the north in the autumn. In the interannual scale, high LAI appears in the strong East Asian monsoon year, whereas low LAI is related to the weak East Asian monsoon year. These further lead to the characteristic of 'onsoon-driven ecosystem' in the eastern China monsoon region, which can be revealed by LAI.

본 연구는 대청댐 방류에 따른 하류 하천에 대한 수질의 시, 공간적 변이를 파악하기 위해서 2000$\sim$2007년까지 8년간 측정된 환경부 수질측정망 자료를 분석하였다. 총 8개의 수질변수를 이용하였으며, 이들의 수질 특성은 연별, 조사지점별, 댐 방류량별로 큰 변이를 보였다. 전기 전도도와 영양염류인 TN, TP는 계절 및 월별 분석에 의하면 하류 하천인 S4에서 장마기에 크게 감소하는 현상을 보였으며, 지점별로 분석에서 대청댐(S1)에서 하류 하천(S4)으로 갈수록 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 또한 BOD와 COD의 경우도 하류로 갈수록 증가하는 양상을 보인다. 이는 장마기에 정수대(Lentic ecosystem)인 S1에서는 외부로부터의 영양염류 및 기타 오염물질의 유입으로 소폭 상승하나 유수대(Lotic ecosystem)인 S4에서는 상류부 댐의 방류로 인하여 영양염류 및 기타 오염물질이 희석효과로 인하여 상대적으로 감소하는 양상을 나타냈다. SS의 지점별 특성을 보면, 장마기에 S1에 비하여 하류인 S4에서 높은 값을 보였는데, 이는 대전시에서 흘러나오는 지천의 영향이 하류 수질악화에 영향을 준 것으로 사료된다. DO의 월별 특성으로는 수온이 상승하는 장마기에 가장 낮은 값을 보여 수온과 상반되는 양상을 보였다. S1에서는 장마가 끝난 10월에 가장 낮은 값을 보였는데 이는 장마기 대청호로 중층 유입된 호수수가 장마 후기에 반영된 것으로 사료되었다. 반면, 수온의 월별 특성은 장마기에 증가하는 양상을 보였으며, 지점별로 댐내의 호수수와 최하류 하천수간에 큰 차이를 보였다. 이러한 하류하천의 수질특성들은 상류댐의 방류량과 밀접한 연관성을 나타내고 있고, 이런 특성은 상류부 댐의 방류량 조절이 하류 하천의 수질변화에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다.

The Catba national park (20$\circ$42'-20$\circ$54'N, 106$\circ$54'-107$\circ$09'E), which is a representative protected area in northeast Vietnam, was first investigated in terms of phytosociology of the Zurich-Montpellier School. 15 plant communities were identified from the seven vegetation types: Teetaria-Amoora gigantea community, Blechmum-Pitecellobium ferrugineum community, Impatiens-Dracaena cambodiana community, Rhizophora apiculata community, Avicenia marina community, Panicum repens community, Heterosmilax-Zanthoxylum nitidum community, Stachytarphyta jamaiensis-Bidens bipinnata community, microstegium vagans community, Dicranopteris linearis community, Randina-Sapium sebiferum community, Psidium gujava community, Elephantopus scaber community, and chirita aratformis community. Traditional pasturing and shifting agrie\culture by indigenous people in Catba national park were recognized as main disturbance regies, which have been far above sustainable levels. Ecological strategies for conservation and sustainable use on national park' ecosystem were proposed: (1) development of awareness program on sustainable life style of indigenous people, (2) establishment of multiple use module system of national park, (3) ecosystem monitoring of permanent ecological sites.

Wetlands perform various functions of vital socio-ecological significance playing fundamental role in moderating monsoon tidal floods and coastal protection and generate goods and products such as fish and forest resources. The depletion of mangroves is a cause of serious environmental and economic concern to many developing countries. Problems of sustainability of mangrove ecosystems are not only technical but also socio-economic. Functions played by mangrove wetlands are of fundamental importance for society. The present study aims to identify the challenges of the mangrove wetlands of Southeast coast of Chittagong, their uses and socio-economic influence on local people, and the value of ecosystem services, and to suggest how to conserve this ecosystem in a more equitable way.

어류군집을 이용한 생물보전지수(Index of Biological Integrity, IBI)와 서식지 평가지수 (qoalitativeHabitatEvaluationlndex, QHEI)를 적용하여 금호강의 수서 생태계를 평가하였다. 총체적으로 금호강의 IBI값은 13-37 범위에 있었으며, 연 평균값은 23(n=25, Std. error=1.16)으로서 Karr(1981) 와 U.S. EPA (1993) 기준에 따르면 "Poor" 또는 "Very Poor" 상태로 판명되었다. 평균 IBI값은 하천의 고도구배를 따라서 $0.22km^{-1}$($r^2$=0.91, p<0.05)로 감소하였다. 하류지역의 IBI값의 감소는 여울저서성 어류 및 식충성 어류의 감소와 함께 내성종, 비정상 어류 및 외래 어류의 증가 때문으로 판명되었다. IBI값의 공간적 양상은 평균 어종 수와 1차 함수관계 ($r^2$=0.998, p< 0.001)를 보인 QHEI와 동일한 양상을 보였다. 수 환경내 conservative ion변화의 척도로서 측정된 전기전도도와 pH값에 따르면, 금호강은 여름동안의 장마 및 수계로부터 표층수 유입으로 인해 30%까지 희석되었으며, 이런 결과는 장마기간 동안 강물의 물리적, 화학적 불안정성을 제시하였으며, 장마기간 및 장마 후의 IBI값을 비교해 보면 장마 전에 비해 20%이상 감소하였다. 총체적으로 하천의 물리적 교란 전(장마 전), 서식지 평가지수는 잡식성 어종의 상대 풍부도와 역상관관계(r=0.99, p<0.0001)를 보인 반면에 육식성 어종과는 정상관관계(r=0.87, p=0.05)를 보였다. 결론적으로 서식지의 공간적 질적 저하는 영양구조 체제에 변경을 초래하였고, 이런 기능적 변화는 결국 IBI값의 감소를 초래하였다.

본 연구는 낙동강 하류에서 장마 기간의 강우가 수질 변화에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 1997년 하절기 장마기간 주요 집수역의 강우상황을 분석하고 낙동강 하류역 (물금)에서 $1{\sim}3$일 간격으로 수질항목(수소이온농도,　탁도, 투명도, 엽록소-a, 용존산소, 전기전도도, 수온)과　영양염류 등(총질소, 총인, 질산성 질소, 암모니아성 질소, 인산 인, 규산)을 측정하였다. 또한 갈수기 이후 큰 강에서 최초 집중강우가 수질 변화에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 수질 자동측정장비(Hydrolab $Recorder^{TM}$)를　이용하여 장마 초기강우 전후에 1시간 간격으로 수질　및 수위변화를 모니터링하였다. 우리나라는 연간 강우의약 50%이상이 하절기 ($6{\sim}8$월)에 집중되며,　특히 장마는6월 하순경에 시작하여 7월 중순까지 약 한 달간 하천수환경에 크게 영향을 미친다. 1997년 장마기간동안 낙동강의 주요 집수역에서 50mm 이상의 강우가 내린 횟수는 총 5회였고,　여름기간 중 물금 지역에서 물리${\cdot}$화학적 환경요인에 급격한 변화가 일어난 시기는 장마 초기를 전후해서였다. 초기강우로 기초수질항목 중 수온, 수소이온농도, 전기전도도, 용존산소는 큰 폭으로 감소하였고 탁도, 영양염류 및 규산 등과 같은 항목은 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 하절기 엽록소-a 농도는 총인, 총질소의 높은 농도에도 불구하고 연중 최저치를 나타냈는데, 이는 장마 강우로 인한 탁도 증가와 수체의 체류시간감소 영향 등이 크게 작용한 것으로 사료된다. 장마 초기 강우 동안 영양염류의 농도는 크게 증가하는 양상을　보였으나 항목에 따라 그 패턴은 다소 상이했다. 장마는　몬순기후에 의해 발생하는 기상 현상으로,　연중 가장 두드러진 집중된 강우 및 급격한 유량변화를 유발함으로써 하천생태계에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 특히, 이 기간동안 강우의 빈도 및 강도는 하천의 육수학적 현상 변화와 패턴에 중요한 요소로서 작용하며, 이는 동아시아몬순기후대에 속하는 하천들에서 유사하게 발생하는 하천의 중요한 특성으로 사료된다.

We compared spatial and temporal variations of water chemistry between high-flow year ($HF_y$) and low-flow year ($LF_y$) in an artificial lentic ecosystem of Daechung Reservoir. The differences in the rainfall distributions explained the variation of the annual inflow and determined flow characteristics and water residence time and modified chemical and biological conditions, based on TP, suspended solids, and chlorophylla, resulting in changes of ecological functions. The intense rainfall and inflow from the watershed resulted in partial disruption of thermal structure in the metalimnion depth, ionic dilution, high TP, and high suspended solids. This condition produced a reduced chlorophyll-a in the headwaters due to low light availability and rapid flushing. In contrast, reduced inflow and low rainfall by drought resulted in strong thermal difference between the epilimnion and hypolimnion, low inorganic solids, high total dissolved solids, and low phosphorus in the ambient water. The riverine conditions dominated the hydrology in the monsoon of $HF_y$ and lacustrine conditions dominated in the $HF_y$. Overall data suggest that effective managements of the flow from the watershed may have an important role in the eutrophication processes.

Ocean climate variables ($1900{\sim}2005$), time series of catches ($1910{\sim}2005$) and body size data were used to assess the year-to-year and decadal scale fluctuations in abundance of the fish populations (Japanese sardine, anchovy, jack mackerel, chub mackerel, Pacific saury and common squid) that have spawning grounds in the East China Sea and its adjacent regions. A negative correlation between the abundance of pelagic fishes (e.g. jack mackerel) in the Tsushima Warm Current (TWC) region and the Kuroshio-Oyashio Current (KOC) region was attributed to the climatic modulation of larval transport and recruitment, which depends on the winter monsoon-induced drift, current systems, and spawning season and site. The changes in abundance and alternation of dominant fish populations in the two regions in the 1930s, 1970s, and late 1980s mirrored changes in the climate indices (ALPI, AOI and MOI). Oscillations in the decadal climate shifts between the two regions led to zonal differences in larval transport and recruitment, and hence differences in the abundance of the pelagic fish populations. During deep Aleutian Lows, as in the 1980s, larval transport from the East China Sea to the KOC region increases in association with the strong winter Asian monsoon, cool regime and increased volume transport of the Kuroshio Current systems, whereas during a weak Aleutian Low (as in the 1990s), larval transport to the TWC region increased in association with a weak winter Asian monsoon, a warm regime, and increased volume transport of the Tsushima current system. We postulate that the increased chub mackerel abundance in the TWC region and the decreased abundance in the KOC region in the 1990s are partly attributed to changes in recruitment and availability to the fishing fleets under the warm regime in the spawning and nursery grounds in the East China Sea in association with the quasi-steady state of mild winter monsoon in the 1990s. The fluctuations in chub mackerel and jack mackerel abundance are under the environment-dependant growth form, although the tropicalization was identified in the TWC region. The density-dependant growth form was found in Japanese sardine populations, but no tropicalization by fishing was identified in the long ($10{\sim}15$ year) periods of abundance despite their short ($3{\sim}4$ year) generation time, suggesting that the environment-dependant growth form drove the changes in abundance. Year-to-year and decadal scale variations in abundance and population structure of the Pacific saury responded to climate regime shifts (1976/1977, 1988/1989), suggesting that the fish is a key bio-indicators for changes in the ecosystem.

Since the Korean Meteorological Society was organized in 1963, the climate dynamics fields have been made remarkable progress. Here, we documented the academic developments in the area of climate dynamics performed by members of Korean Meteorological Society, based on studies that have been published mainly in the Journal of Korean Meteorological Society, Atmosphere, and Asia-Pacific Journal of Atmospheric Sciences. In these journals, the fundamental principles of typical ocean-atmosphere climatic phenomena such as El Niño, Madden-Julian Oscillation, Pacific Decadal Oscillation, and Atlantic Multi-decadal Oscillation, their modeling, prediction, and its impact, are being conducted by members of Korean Meteorological Society. Recently, research has been expanded to almost all climatic factors including cryosphere and biosphere, as well as areas from a global perspective, not limited to one region. In addition, research using an artificial intelligence (AI), which can be called a cutting-edge field, has been actively conducted. In this paper, topics including intra-seasonal and Madden-Julian Oscillations, East Asian summer monsoon, El Niño-Southern Oscillation, mid-latitude and polar climate variations and some paleo climate and ecosystem studies, of which driving mechanism, modeling, prediction, and global impact, are particularly documented.

This study was carried out to elucidate the relation between water quality and structure of the aquatic ecosystem in the agriculture reservoir Otae-ji from January to December in 2009. The proportion of forest was 46.98%, which means that non-point sources are major contributor of water pollution in this area. The annual mean COD(Chemical Oxygen Demand) in Otae-ji was $3.6mgL^{-1}$, indicating, level II of environmental standards and the trophic state was mesotrophic. Although total phosporus concentration in the reservoir was high in August due to large inflow of nutrients from outside the reservoir during monsoon season, there was no break out of significant algal bloom in the summer. The seasonal succession of phytoplankton showed that the dinophyta dominated in the the spring, chlorophyta in the summer, chrysophyta and chlorophyta in the autumn and chrysophyta in the winter. In case of zooplankton, rotifers dominated in the most seasons, but cladoceran(Bosmina longirostris) dominated in June and copepod(Nauplii) in August. The macrophyte plants showed diverse species compositon consisted of 3 varieties, 24 species, 23 genera, 15 families and 14 orders. The macroinvertebrates also showed various FFG(Functional Feeding Groups) such as GC(Gathering-Collector), P(Predator), SH(Shedder), FC(Filter-Collector) and PP(Plant-Piercer). Ecosystem stability analysis using aquatic insects was classified as Group I, which has high resilience and resistance indices. A total of 14 species of fish was collected but exotic species such as Lepomis macrochirus and Micropterus salmoides were not found in Otae-ji. In conclusion, the preservation of healthy food wed in the reservoir ecosystem is closely related to water quality management as well as effective prevention of algal bloom by helping good material circulation in aquatic ecosystems.
