  • 서식처 유형에 따른 잠자리군집 특성을 알아보기 위하여 원주시에 위치한 묵논습지, 자연형 저수지, 자연하천, 산림계곡의 4개 대표 비오톱 유형에 33개 조사구를 설치하여 2010년 6월, 8월, 10월에 조사를 실시하였다. 잠자리는 총 9과 38종이 확인되었다. TWINSPAN 분석을 통하여 4개 서식처 유형별 종 조성을 비교한 결과, 3개 서식처(묵논습지, 자연형 저수지, 산림계곡)는 뚜렷한 종 조성 차이를 보였으나, 자연하천은 뚜렷한 종 조성 차이를 보이지 않았다. 서식처 유형별 우점종과 아우점종은 고추좀잠자리와 깃동잠자리가 대부분이었으나 등줄실잠자리, 산잠자리, 왕잠자리 등은 서식처 차이를 보였다. 서식처 유형별 종다양성지수는 묵논습지, 자연하천, 자연형 저수지에서 통계적으로 차이가 없었으며 산림계곡은 낮았다. 서식처 유형별 잠자리 산란유형은 묵논습지가 가장 다양하였으며, 식물체에 산란하는 잠자리 종류가 가장 많아 습생식물이 잠자리 풍부도에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 판단된다. 회귀분석을 통하여 종간관계를 분석한 결과, 고추잠자리와 밀잠자리, 고추잠자리와 방울실잠자리, 배치레잠자리와 애기좀잠자리가 정의 상관관계를 보였으며, 상관관계가 높은 종간에도 선호하는 서식처에 차이가 존재하였다.

  • 2008년 이후 꾸준히 유전자변형생물체의 수입 승인이 증가하여 2015년 2월 기준 국내 131개의 이벤트가 식용, 사료용, 가공용으로 수입 및 유통 중이다. LMO의 비의도적 자연 생태계 유출을 파악하기 위해 선행되어야 하는 것은 명확한 LMO 도입유전자 검출 기법의 개발이며, 본 연구를 통해 2014년 7개 이벤트에 대한 도입유전자 검출 기법을 확립하였다. 현재까지 확보된 유전자 분석기법은 40개이며 이는 국내도입 LMO의 80%를 검출할 수 있는 과학적 근거를 제공할 것이다(Lee et al. 2015). LMO 자연환경 모니터링 및 사후관리 연구를 위해 단일이벤트를 검출할 수 있는 기법 연구는 앞으로 계속 수행할 계획이다.

  • The ecological background of a restoration project is complex and difficult to betermine without experimentation. A useful context for experiments is the well-studied process of natural succession, because the factors that drive or inhibit succession are also at work during reclamation (a form of primary succession) and restoration (which often resembles secondary succession). Using experimental studies on urban wasteland reclamation, we have tested for factors that stimulate or inhibit succession during early phases of woodland development in the Northeastern United states. The emphasis has been on mutualisms (seed dispersal, pollination, and mycorrhizae) and microsite limitations in the recruitment, growth, and reproduction of woody plants. Using plantings of seeds, seedlings, and clusters of reproductively mature plants on abandoned landfills, we have observed that (1) soil microsite deficiencies lead to very poor germination (<0.1$\%$) and seedling survival (<0.01$\%$) of most native species; (2) seed dispersal by birds is a significant and reliable source of woody plant recruitment; however (3) proximity effects are strong, with most (up to 95$\%$) of seed rain falling in the vicinity of planted clusters that are closest to putative seed sources; and (4) remnant natural woodlands are critical components of the recruitment process. To emphasize the last point, in one case, we found that the destruction of approximately 50$\%$ of nearby natural woodland vegetation led to a commensurate decline in seed rain. In another case, we found that the species richness of recruits was strictly limited by the species composition of nearby source plant communities, with no evidence of community enrichment by long distance dispersal over 5 years. We conclude from these results that the size and proximity of remnant natural populations are critical considerations when planning reclamation and restoration programs that rely on natural successional processes.

  • 본 연구는 생태지역 유형에 따른 방문자의 경험에 대한 인식을 비교하는데 목적을 두고 수행되었다. 연구목적 달성을 위해 생태지역 유형을 자연생태지역과 인공생태지역으로 구분하였으며, 생태지역별 방문 경험자를 대상으로 방문경험에 대한 인식도 분석과 인식도에 따른 만족도 분석을 실시하였다. 먼저, 방문경험 인식 측정요소에 대한 분석결과, 생태체험, 환경친화, 사회성, 휴식 등의 4개 요인이 도출되었다. 자연생태지역과 인공생태지역에 따라 방문경험 요인별로 인식차이를 비교한 결과, 전반적으로 자연생태지역에서의 방문경험 인식이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 생태지역방문경험 인식이 방문자 만족도에 미치는 영향 분석 결과에서는 자연생태지역과 인공생태지역에서 휴식성이 가장 많은 영향을 미치는 요인으로 나타났다. 자연생태지역에서는 생태체험 요인, 인공생태지역에서는 환경친화 요인이 방문자 만족에 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었으며, 이에 대한 계획 및 관리적 차원의 시사점을 제시하였다.

  • Natural disturbance and environmental pressure on natural ecosystems are gradually increasing, and the cause is significantly related to large-scale environmental pollution, global warming, decreasing biodiversity and habitat fragmentation. Environmental impact assessment(EIA) in Korea has been focused on distribution and composition of fauna and flora as major evaluation aspects in ecosystem assessment. It is well known that those characteristics of flora and fauna strongly depend on characteristics and quality of habitat and ecosystem. However, there is no items to assess habitat and ecosystems of spatial ecological system in EIA. Many countries are trying to develop the EIA items to consider the spatial characteristics of habitat and ecosystem and those ecological dynamics as well as species level. In this stream, landscape ecology is emerging discipline to examine spatial pattern and ecological process within/between habitats and ecosystems. Landscape ecological analysis, as a special tool for ecosystem evaluation, has been appropriately adopted to the EIA system in the advanced countries. This review paper tries to introducing the possibilities of landscape ecological concept into the Korean EIA system.

  • Sustainable development has been the key concept, both in economic policies and in environmental management. On the basis of an systems ecology perspective, this suggests the sustainable development of Korea\`s natural environment and economic activity using the EMERGY evaluation. The total EMERGY use(7,730E20sej/yr) in Korea is 81 percent from imported sources, fuels and goods and services. The ratio of outside investment to attracting natural resources is already large, like other industrialized countries. Continued availability of purchased inputs at a favorable balance of EMERGY trade, currently about 2.85 to 1 net EMERGY, tis the basis for present economic activity and must decrease as the net EMERGY of purchased inputs including fossil fuels goes down. EMERGY yield ratio and environmental loading ratio were 1.23 and 20.30, respectively. The population level is already in excess of carrying capacity. Its carrying capacity for steady state on its renewable sources is only 2.2 million people, compared to 45.9 million in 1977. EMERGY sustainability index is therefore less than one, which is indicative of highly developed consumer oriented economies. Until now the development of a country has been achieved by the economic growth, but it can be sustained in the long run by the use of renewable resource systems. the efficiency of energy usage, and the transformation of the social-economic structure based on an ecological-recycling concept.

  • A survey was conducted to investigate the intake pattern of health supplements and health foods by using questionnaire. The data were collected from 395 adults over middle age and analyzed with SAS program. The natural foods were most frequently taken among health supplements and health foods for health. There was no difference in pattern of health supplements or health foods intake between male and female. The item taken over 20% of subjects was health drinks, green tea, ginseng product, dietary fiber drink, honey, general tea, tonic medicine from natural foods, vitamin B, vitamin C from nutrition supplements, and Lactobacillus product from health supplements. As the main reason for taking health supplements or health foods, the male indicated recovery of fatigue and improvement of health, but the female indicated recovery of fatigue and protection or treatment on disease(p<0.001). The frequency of taking health supplements or health foods was once a day. About the effect of health foods 70.1%, of subjects answered not bad and 25% responded very helpful for their health. Twenty percent of subjects experienced side effects such as diarrhea. The results showed that the proper education program should be developed for consumer to choose suitable health supplements or health foods according to their dietary life and health condition.
