  • 본 연구는 경상북도 내연산 소재 희귀식물인 망개나무림을 대상으로 개체군과 군집 구조를 정량화하고, 다변량통계기법을 활용하여 군집유형과 입지환경요인과의 상관관계를 분석하여 향후 망개나무 자생지의 보전 및 복원을 위한 기초자료를 제시하고자 하였다. 망개나무는 총 164개체가 출현하였으며, 평균흉고직경 24.5 cm의 정규분포형의 분포를 보였지만 하층식생인 수고 3 m 이하에 거의 출현하지 않았으며, 맹아발생 개체비율은 37.1%이었다. 망개나무 임분은 망개나무졸참나무군집(그룹 I)과 망개나무-서어나무군집(그룹 II)의 2개의 그룹으로 분류되었으며, 수관틈과 토양의 화학적 특성인 유기물함량(OM), 치환성 Ca 그리고 양이온치환능(CEC)이 임분들의 분포패턴에 영향을 주는 주요 입지조건이었다. 현재 내연산의 망개나무 임분들은 망개나무가 우점하고 있었으나 분포지의 입지조건에 따라 음수인 서어나무 또는 까치박달로의 미소천이가 일어나고 있었다.

  • 쇠퇴하고 노후되는 도시재개발 패러다임이 변화하고 있다. 글로컬 시대는 국가단위보다는 주민의 실질적 삶에 근거를 둔 지역, 즉 마을 중심의 도시재생에 무게를 둔다. 본 연구의 목적은 쇠퇴하는 도시의 재활성화와 도시경쟁력을 높이기 위한 핵심축으로써 주민참여 활성화 방안을 모색하는 것이다. 부산광역시 S구 일대를 대상지로 한 도시재생사업(새뜰마을사업) 일환의 주민대학을 강점모델 기반으로 설계하고 운영한 사례를 분석하였다. 이를 통해 성공적인 주민참여프로그램을 위해 몇 가지 경험적 논의를 제시하였다. 첫째, 지역의 문제에 기반을 둔 병리적 모델에서 벗어나 지역과 주민이 지니고 있는 긍정적이고 가능성을 지향하는 강점모델로 접근한다. 이러한 접근은 주민들이 마을에 대한 자긍심과 소속감을 갖고 강점을 활용함으로써 주민의 주체적 태도와 주민역량강화를 증진한다. 둘째, 마을 주변의 지역대학자원을 활용한 지역과 대학의 상생이다. 셋째, 지역주민의 다각적인 욕구에 부응하기 위해서는 대학전공의 융합을 통한 지역 지원과 교류를 모색한다.

  • Congestion is a growing concern of many global cities and the demands on Infrastructure services within a locale coupled by the rising expectations from the growing population places stress on these cities. This entails the ability to build a sustainable community that requires an understanding and recognition of Population growth, changing demographics and the ever changing urban development on both a macro and micro level. Infrastructure is an integral part of Australian economy, particularly the 'Infrastructure Assets Management' which highlights the importance towards the development of sustainable communities for Melbourne's future. Melbourne 2030 is a comprehensive representation of government's response to a wide-ranging population growth within Melbourne metropolitan and surrounding areas. Urban plan and specific Infrastructure Assets Planning needs not only to provide sufficient Infrastructure to a community, but it must also be efficient and innovative so that it produces an optimised management system. A system that incorporates engineering techniques that will be sustainable for decades to come by maintaining an acceptable level of services to its intended community in an effective manner, which also strengthens service delivery. The fundamental challenges for optimization of Infrastructure with the Melbourne urban plan is, the ability to manage and sustain maintenance of Infrastructure to provide the acceptable level of service required by the community in a most effective manner which also strengthens service delivery to contribute towards Melbourne 2030. This paper particularly investigates some of the fundamental issues within the Melbourne urban plan such as Infrastructure Asset Management, AusLink and the Australian Road Management Act 2004, which the Governments at all levels must deal with to provide an economically viable solution to the changing Infrastructure so it may suits the needs and services the strategies of a metropolis.

  • With the rapid progress of urbanization today, communities among members of society have collapsed. For dealing with the collapse of communities, special laws regarding urban regeneration revitalization and support were enforced and each local government founded community centers to revitalize urban village communities. These community centers were built to play a pivotal role in communities, but they have difficulties managing and supervising. Therefore, this study aims to provide basic data for community center planning and revitalization by examining and analyzing the present state of community center spaces for creation of communities among residents and the present state of use so the existing purpose of establishment as a base space of village community revitalization can be achieved in the future. For this study, first, in the literature review, the concepts of village community and community center were established, based on a theoretical consideration, and the need of research was identified through consideration of preceding studies. Second, in relation to the present state of use, the present state of community center spaces, programs, management and supervision, locations and populations was investigated and analyzed, and community center users' basic characteristics, satisfaction and consciousness of community centers were examined and analyzed. Based on this method and analysis, this study is focused on providing basic data for community center revitalization and planning.

  • In contemporary Korean society, urban community environment is often associated with high-density and high-rise residences that make people's relationships superficial, instrumental and impersonal. Furthermore, urban community consistently interplays with neighboring residents and childhood emotional experience are influential on their unconscious images and attitude about their current neighborhood environment, while affecting the environmental attitude and the formation of community sense. Previous research found evidences that increased level of community sense is fostering more feeling of living in so-called "real neighborhood environment." This study aimed to cross-culturally examine what the respondents' emotional perception and their attitude were about the community environment in their childhood through environmental autobiography method and to examine the effects of the results on adults' formation of sense of community for their current community environment. Extensive literature review explored a few important theoretical framework which are closely related to sense of community (SOC) as a result of emotional experience: membership, influence, integration and fulfillment of needs, shared emotional connection and community satisfaction. Chi-square and GLM analysis revealed that there were no demographic, and socio-economic differences between two groups of Korean and US residents. Correlation analysis indicated that childhood emotional experience of Koreans and US citizens was statistically significant on sense of community for their current living community. Multi-regression analysis also found that the degree of influence were the main predictors for building strong sense of current community throughout a cross-cultural group. Furthermore, the relationship between various emotional experience of each factor in previous and current community environment were statistically significantly related. It is concluded that as the positive childhood experience of influence in their past community was going up, the level of sense of community for their current community was strengthened across their cross-cultural background.
