  • The study aims to evaluate the complexity of relationships between the riparian states - China, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia - in the Mekong River Basin since the mid-1990s with special reference to the discourse on hydropower development. A special emphasis will be put on the influence of China on hydropower development. Although a variety of issues on the river basin have been discussed among the riparian states, none of them has been effectively implemented owing to the lack of China's commitment to the discussions for sustainable water management. Now, a new turning point is observed in the region with emergence of the issue on hydropower development, not only in the upper basin but also in the lower basin. The discourse on hydropower in Mekong has quickly drawn attention of the public, accelerated by the onset of construction of the Xayabury Dam in Laos since November 2010. The influence of China as the upstream country with its political, economic, and military power has increasingly grown in the region over the last few decades, and such trend recently intensifies together with an expansion of Chinese commercial interests in the region. Since the establishment of the Mekong River Commission (MRC) in 1995, the four MRC members have striven to push forward a sustainable use of water resources in the basin. But the legitimacy of the MRC system has been eroded due to the lack of participation by Myanmar and China, and in particular, the Chinese absence has made the four riparian states blind about the change of water regime due to the Chinese dams upstream. Environmental damages due to hydropower development might be possible, including a drop of fish yields, crop production, and damages to the river's ecosystems. Vietnam and Cambodia have already expressed their concerns over the dam construction towards China as well as Laos by pointing out detrimental impacts of the dams to their economies. China's move to collaborate with the other riparian states since 2010 has given a positive signal in terms of sustainable water management in the river. However, this phenomenon never confirms China's proactive contribution to the cooperative activities within the framework of the MRC system. Laos' initiative to build a new dam in the lower basin alarms those who are opposed to dam construction in the fear of its far-reaching damages to the environment. The question goes back to the year-long debate on policy priorities given to economic growth or the environment. The riparian states require wisdom based on a consensus about sustainable water use rather than hydropower development based on individual growth dreams.

  • The increase of meteorological uncertainty and unstable fluctuation of its behavior due to the global warming affect the temporal variation and spatial distribution of water resources and water use patterns in agriculture. There have been steady efforts to understand hydrological components and deal with such water related problems. This paper reviews firstly, the future effect of water resources due to climate changes, secondly, recent progress for precipitation, evapotranspiration, soil moisture, and thirdly, GIS/RS based integrated information systems conducted by both researchers and government ministries. There should be continuous studies and investments to cope with climate changes, and to accomplish sustainable development with the help of agricultural water resources. Some research topics were suggested to attempt with substantial contents considering our present capability and situation.

  • 새로운 공간기술의 발달은 현 토지 관리의 효율성을 유지하면서 미래 토지 관리의 효율성뿐 만아니라 지속성까지도 고려할 수 있게 하고 있다. 이런 맥락에서 토지관리 및 지속성에 직면한 도전은 무엇이며, 양자의 관계는 어떻게 설정할 수 있는지? 토지 관리를 위한 지속가능한 기술은 무엇인지? 그리고 지속성의 도전과 기술을 어떻게 토지 관리를 위해 적용할 수 있는지? 등의 의문을 제기해 볼 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 토지 관리를 보다 더 효율적이고 지속적으로 유지관리하기 위한 지속가능한 기술을 조사 및 적용하여 지속가능한 토지 관리방향을 모색하는 것이다. 특히 지속가능성 및 토지 관리의 도전이라 할 수 있는 수용능력(capacity), 안전성(security), 정보기술자원(IT resource), 새로운 장치(new device), 표준(standards), 투명성(transparency), 자료의 접근(access to data) 등을 고려하여 토지 관리를 위한 지속가능한 기술을 기술하고 접근하고자 한다.

  • 본 연구는 중학교 학생의 기술지향, 생태지향 및 지속가능발전 환경적 세계관을 조사하여 교육적 시사점을 얻고자 하였다. 중학교 학생의 환경적 세계관은 자연 환경 영역 자연에서의 사람의 가치, 자연 환경의 가치, 사람의 자연 지배, 환경 생태계의 평형 유지 능력의 4개 범주, 사람의 행동과 환경 영역은 에너지 및 자원 고갈, 기술 개발, 경제 성장, 환경 문제의 심각성의 4개 범주 등 2개 영역, 총 8개 범주로 구분하여 조사하였다. 연구 대상은 10개 중학교 남학생 152명, 여학생 224명 등 총 356명이었으며, 온라인 설문 조사 사이트에 자발적으로 접속하여 리커르트 4점 척도(1~4)로 응답하도록 하였다. 중학교 학생들은 기술지향 환경적 세계관 보다는 지속가능발전 환경적 세계관과 생태지향 환경적 세계관을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 중학교 여학생이 남학생에서 비해 지속가능발전 환경적 세계관에 대한 높은 경향성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 중학교 학생이 지속가능발전 환경적 세계관을 유지하고 이에 대응하여 실천할 수 있는 교육적 접근이 필요하다.

  • Over the last three decades, Korean farming system has been directed to maximum agricultural production and to increase farmer's income through adoption of high-yielding crop varieties and high input of agrochemicals . These farming practices have resulted in problems of water-quality deterioration, soil degradation , and food safety. At present, over 40 million tones of animal waste are bing produced annually, which amounts to disposing the waste at the annual rate of 20 tones per ha in the total area of farming land in Korea. Nearly a half of total available water resources is used as irrigation water predominantly for rice paddy field. Thus, non-point source contamination of the water resources has been linked to agriculture across the nation. However, the extent to which agriculture contributes to the water quality is not fully known. Recently, Korean government provided various institutional measures to reduce the negative impacts of agricultural practices on the environ ental quality, and the Agricultural Environment Act was also passed by the legislature in 1998 and became effective January 1999. This Act does not cover the broad spectrum of the sustainable agriculture ; thus, the limited incentives within this Act are arguably ineffective to control the non-point source pollution. Recently new bulk blending of fertilizers(BB fertilizer) are bing produced (100, 000 tones in 1998) with Government subsidies. The BB fertilizers are to balance N-P-K ratio in the soils . Although the use of the BB fertilizers are encouraged with Government subsidies, non-point source pollution is still serious and will become worse. Precision farming is regarded as a new means for sustainable agriculture. It is a new technology that modifies the existing techniques and incorporates new one such as GIS, GPS , differential applicator to produce a new set of tools for the farmer to use. Precision farming, however, has constraints for individual farming practices. For exam le , farm size or parcel unit of each farmer is too small to adopt the precision agriculture on farmhouse-hold bases and farmer's ability to adopt the new technology is limited. However, it would be appropriate to establish local or regional cooperatives to operate such a precision farming system. It is recommended that Government provide sufficient incentives to help establish local and/or regional cooperatives.

  • The fishing ground surrounding Wangdol-cho is not only overexploited by the littering of dilapidated fishing net and equipment, but also by fishermen's overfishing, surpassing optimum fisheries resources. In addition, increasing fishing efforts (number of fishing vessel and fishing net, etc) contribute to the deterioration of fishing ground, and it is urgently required that schemes to tackle the problems should be taken. To effectively address the problems as such, this paper aims to propose sustainable utilization and management scheme of fishing ground through classification of fishing ground surrounding Wangdol-cho as one area which is less than 50m deep, measuring $13.66km^2$ and the other, permission fishing area of Gill Net fishery, measuring $347.23km^2$. The analysis shows that, for the water area less than 50m deep, implementation from a short-term perspective includes autonomous management fishery by gill net and trap fishery. For the permission fishing area of Gill Net fishery, implementation includes limit on fishing period, real name system of fishing equipment and limit on fishing equipment. Implementation from a medium and long-term perspective includes limit on scuba diving, designation of underwater sightseeing zone, sea farming, facilities of surveillance, adoption of approval system for the permission fishing area of Gill Net fishery and introduction of report system for fishing.
