Natural stream work has been implemented recently to improve the urban stream environment in Korean cities. Many plants planted in the early work have not survived because they were not suited to the site and therefore failed to adapt to the riparian environment. The objective of this study is to investigate the floral change at the riparian environment after completion of the natural stream work by comparing the differences between planted species during the work and the current species at the study site. The study site was the stream area between Yeongdohng 2 bridge and Yeongdohng 3 bridge at Yangjae-cheon Stream, Gangnam-ku, Seoul, which was the prototype site of G-7 project of the Ministry of Environment in Korea. The following conclusions were derived after doing this study: Among the 50 species planted during the work, 23 species survived in the stream zone, while 27 species did not. The species that did not survive were ornamental plants that were not appropriate for the riparian environment. Among the 144 species which appeared naturally, 77 species(53.5%) were annuals and perennials, which means the study site is still in ecological disturbance and does not have a stable status ecologically. Thus, it is necessary to select the plant species that can survive in the disturbed riparian environment.

Urban areas in watersheds increase the impervious surface, and agricultural areas deteriorate the water quality of rivers due to the use of fertilizers. As such, anthropogenic land use affects the type, intensity and quantity of land use and is closely related to the amount of substances and nutrients discharged to nearby streams. Riparian vegetation reduce the concentration of pollutants entering the watershed and mitigate the negative impacts of land use on rivers. This study analyzes the data through correlation analysis and regression analysis through point data measured twice a year in spring and autumn in 21 selected damaged tributary rivers within the Han River area, and then uses a structural equation model to determine the area land use. In the negative impact on water quality, the mitigation effect of riparian vegetation was estimated. As a result of the correlation analysis, the correlation between the agricultural area and water quality was stronger than that of the urban area, and the area ratio of riparian vegetation showed a negative correlation with water quality. As a result of the regression analysis, it was found that agricultural areas had a negative effect on water quality in all models, but the results were not statistically significant in the case of urban areas. As a result of the model estimated through the structural equation, BOD, COD, TN, and TP showed a mitigation effect due to the accumulation effect of river water quality through riparian vegetation in agricultural areas, but the effect of riparian vegetation through riparian vegetation was found in urban areas. There was no These results were interpreted as having a fairly low distribution rate in urban areas, and in the case of the study area, there was no impact due to riparian forests due to the form of scattered and distributed settlements rather than high-density urbanized areas. The results of this study were judged to be unreasonable to generalize by analyzing the rivers where most of the agricultural areas are distributed, and a follow-up to establish a structural equation model by expanding the watershed variables in urban areas and encompassing the variables of various factors affecting water quality research is required.

유역의 토지이용과 하천에 인접한 수변림은 하천의 수질을 결정하는 중요한 요인이다. 특히 유역의 개발지역은 불투수면을 증가시키고, 강우유출 특성과 비점오염물질 거동을 변화시켜 하천의 수질을 악화시킨다. 한편, 수변림은 다양한 수문학적, 생화학적 및 생태학적 작용을 통해 유역의 토지이용이 수질에 미치는 영향을 완화시키는 것으로 보고되어 왔다. 하천의 수질은 다양한 요인들에 의해 영향을 받기 때문에 요인들 간 인과관계를 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구는 인과관계를 분석할 수 있는 구조방정식모형을 통해 하천환경 특성, 유역의 개발지역 면적, 수변림의 공간적 구조가 총질소 농도에 미치는 구조적 관계 분석에 목적을 두고 수행되었다. 연구 대상지는 낙동강 대권역으로 선정하였으며, 수질 자료는 2012년 환경부의 「전국 하천 수생태계 현황 조사 및 건강성 평가」 결과를 이용하였다. 환경부의 토지피복도에서 수변림과 개발지역 데이터를 추출하여 SPSS Amos 프로그램을 통해 구조방정식모형을 추정하였다. 모형 추정 결과, 개발지역은 고도에 의해 결정되며 수변림의 공간적 구조는 개발지역 면적에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 개발지역 면적은 총질소 농도에 직접적인 영향과 수변림의 공간적 구조를 통해 간접적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 개발지역은 수변림의 LDI와 총질소 농도를 증가시키고 LPI와 PLAND를 감소시키며 LDI와 PLAND는 총질소 농도를 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 유역의 개발지역이 하천의 총질소 농도에 직간접적으로 영향을 미치나, 수변림이 공간적으로 안정적인 구조를 갖고 식생이 풍부할 경우, 개발지역이 하천 수질에 미치는 부정적인 영향을 상당히 완화시킬 수 있다는 것을 의미한다. 따라서 중장기적인 유역 관리 계획 수립 시, 하천의 수질 회복을 위해서는 유역의 개발지역 비율을 최소화하는 것이 중요하며, 유역 개발에 의한 하천 수질의 영향을 완화하기 위해서는 수변림의 양과 구조의 복원 및 관리가 필요하다.

This study aims to find out the growth characteristics of riparian plants on the artificial floating islands (AFI). Three types of experiments were performed. The vegetation growth were compared by the plant-supporting materials; natural cotton mat, coir mat on the AFI or in the water, and natural soil at the waterfront. Major findings are; 1. The survival rate of riparian plants was 100% on both coir-mat and cotton-matislands, which implies that we may substitute cheaper cotton for expensive coir-mat. 2. Both natural cotton mat and coir mat were good for the growth of plants. Especially, the natural cotton mat was good for Sparganium stoloniferum and Miscanthus sacchariflorus, and the coir mat was good for Typha latifolia. 3. The growth rate of stem and root showed difference between the stem-removed plants and stem-remaining plants. As a whole, the growth rate of stem-removed plants was bigger than the one of stem-remaining plants. 4. The growth rate of plants showed difference between those grown on the AFI and those grown in the water. The growth rate of plant on the AFI was bigger than the one in the water. 5. The growth rate of plants on the AFI was bigger than the one on the natural soil at the waterfront.

In Korea, significant riparian areas have been developed due to river maintenance projects. Introduction of new riparian facilities can negatively affect wildlife in the riparian areas. This study focuses on selecting core conservation areas for Eurasian Otter(Lutra lutra) to support decision making process for development of riparian areas. For the study, first of all, field data of study site were collected by field surveys. Secondly, stream naturalness was assessed to understand physical environments of the study sites. Thirdly, habitat suitability was assessed using occurrence data of Eurasian Otter and environmental data. Lastly, core areas for conservation was selected by comparing and synthesizing stream naturalness map and habitat suitability map. The selected core areas showed several characteristics. The number of artificial facilities is low in the core areas. Rocks which are preferred by Eurasian Otter to eat and excrete are plentiful in the core areas. Also, the ratio of adjacent farmland is high. Based on the analyses, it is expected that this study can contribute to decision making process for environmental spatial plans to better conserve habitats of Eurasian Otter.

A landcover map watershed of downstream reach in the Gyungan stream was made by using the existing land use map and interpreting satellite images and aerial photos. Based on the map, we analyzed land use patterns of this basin. Broad-leaved forest occupied the largest area among landscape elements established in this watershed. The total area of the zone designated as the waterside district by the central government was 4.7 km² , and broad-leaved forest occupied the largest area as 33.9% in this zone. Therefore, the area did not meet the qualifications of riparian zones. Riparian vegetation established in the Gyungan stream watershed was composed of Phragmites communis, Miscanthus sacchariflorus, Salix gracilistyla, Salix koreensis. But terrestrial vegetation elements such as Ambrosia trifida, Ailanthus altissima, Robinia pseudoacacia also appeared in this area. On the other hand, Phragmites japonica, Salix gracilistyla, Salix koreensis, Salix integra, Ulmus davidiana and so on appeared in the riparian zone the reference streams. Differently from the vegetation established on the reference streams, terrestrial vegetation elements appeared frequently in the Gyungan stream watershed. This result would be due to that the Gyungan stream watershed is exposed to excessive human interferences.

Han River water landscape changes between 1966 and 2002 were detected by interpreting IKONOS images, aerial photographs. Digital photogrammetry technique was used in this process. Most of water landscape change are disappearance of sandbars and meandering streams in 1966. It is mainly due to the stream straightening for housing site development.

Many of today's environmental problems are regional in scope and their effects overlap and interact. The purpose of this paper is to developed a simple method for an integrated assessment of environmental conditions across the Mid-Nakdong River Region, by combining data on land use, impervious cover, roads, streams, riparian areas, forest patches, population, pollutant loadings, soil erosion and topography. A cluster analysis was used to identify groups of sub-watersheds with similar environmental characteristics. The mean value for each group was used to find watershed that may be more vulnerable to future environmental degradation. Watersheds in cluster I and II had high amount of forest, but the amount of riparian vegetation was low. Watersheds in cluster III, which located in the middle Geumho River and the main course of Nakdong River, had a greater proportion of their agriculture, a greater proportion of agriculture on steep slopes, and less forest adjacent to streams. Watersheds in cluster IV and V were in the most urbanized areas of the region. The principal adverse impacts for watersheds in this group were high scores for urban area, impervious cover, pollutant loadings, population density, forest fragmentation, and low amounts of forest and riparian forest cover. Notwithstanding the exploratory nature of cluster analysis, it appears to be a useful tool for grouping watersheds with similar environmental characteristics.

본 연구의 목적은 금호강 유역을 대상으로 수변구역의 토지이용패턴과 하천 수질간의 관계를 규명하는 것이다. GIS 자료는 수치토지이용도(1:25,000), 수치지형도(1:5,000)에서 추출된 하천망도, 그리고 다중버퍼링 기법에 의한 수변구역도로 구성되었다. Pearson의 상관분석은 하천 양안 30m 수변구역의 토지이용패턴과 수질간의 관계를 설명하기 위해서 사용하였다. 수변구역의 토지이용패턴을 분석한 결과에 따르면, 대구광역시가 위치하고 있는 금호강 하류의 소유역들은 대부분이 주거, 상업, 공업의 도시지역으로 개발된 반면, 금호강 중류와 낙동강 본류에 분포하는 소유역들은 논, 밭 그리고 과수원 등의 농업지역으로 주로 이용되었다. 유역에서 발생되는 질소, 인, 퇴적물 등의 여과기능을 담당할 수 있는 산림지역의 면적률은 16% 정도에 불과한 것으로 나타났다. 수변구역의 토지이용패턴과 하천 수질지표간의 상관분석결과에 따르면, 수변구역의 도시면적률은 하천 수질과 음(-)의 관계를 가지며, 산림지역 면적률은 양(+)의 상관관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 향후에는 지가 등의 경제적인 측면을 비롯한 현재의 토지이용패턴, 그리고 하천 제방의 특성, 지형, 토양 등의 물리적 인자를 종합적으로 고려한 조사 및 연구와 이를 바탕으로 한 종합적인 수변구역 정비 및 관리계획이 수립되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
