The observations on climate change show a clear increase in the temperature of the Earth's surface and the oceans, a reduction in the land snow cover, and melting of the sea ice and glaciers. The effects of climate change are likely to include more variable weather, heat waves, increased mean temperature, rains, flooding and droughts. The threat of climate change and global warming on human and animal health is now recognized as a global issue. This presentation is described an overview of the latest scientific knowledge on the impact of climate change on zoonotic diseases. Climate strongly affects agriculture and livestock production and influences animal diseases, vectors and pathogens, and their habitat. Global warming are likely to change the temporal and geographical distribution of infectious diseases, including those that are vector-borne such as West Nile fever, Rift Valley fever, Japanese encephalitis, bluetongue, malaria and visceral leishmaniasis, and other diarrheal diseases. The distribution and prevalence of vector-borne diseases may be the most significant effect of climate change. The impact of climate change on the emergence and re-emergence of animal diseases has been confirmed by a majority of countries. Emerging zoonotic diseases are increasingly recognized as a global and regional issue with potential serious human health and economic impacts and their current upward trends are likely to continue. Coordinated international responses are therefore essential across veterinary and human health sectors, regions and countries to control and prevent emerging zoonoses. A new early warning and alert systems is developing and introducing for enhancing surveillance and response to zoonotic diseases. And international networks that include public health, research, medical and veterinary laboratories working with zoonotic pathogens should be established and strengthened. Facing this challenging future, the long-term strategies for zoonotic diseases that may be affected by climate change is need for better prevention and control measures in susceptible livestock, wildlife and vectors in Korea. In conclusion, strengthening global, regional and national early warning systems is extremely important, as are coordinated research programmes and subsequent prevention and control measures, and need for the global surveillance network essential for early detection of zoonotic diseases.

The purpose of this study was to analyze examples of green infrastructure presented by the American Society of Landscape Architects as a part of basic research to assess hub green spaces in cities. With the specific goal of green infrasturcture in mind, the study samples were classified according to their purpose: 'humanities', 'hydrology', 'ecology', and 'environment'. Based on this we assessed the elements of planning for the target sites and obtained the following results. With regard to the aspect of humanities, planning urban hub green spaces was related to the satisfaction in leisure activities and the 'quality of life' that people expect to enjoy at parks or other green areas in general. Rather than focusing on direct and visible benefits, which might come from green infrastructure's technological elements, people hoped that parks and green areas have macroscopic values. For hydrological characteristics, the 'ecologically manages stormwater' was applied the most in planning hub green spaces in cities, and it mainly took the form of technological elements or factors. Third, the planning elements pertaining to ecological characteristics were identified as a combination of strategies and technological elements that 'reintroduces native plants' and 'habitat for wildlife'. As for the plans to instill eco-friendly aspects, the study found that the research on air, climate, weather, heat reaction, soil, energy efficiency, and use and application of resources is important. However, it was difficult to measure the potential quantitative benefits of 'reusing or recycling materials', 'reducing urban heat', and 'cooling air temperature'. The result of this study is meaningful in that it can be used for the assessment of urban hub green spaces in the future.

비무장지대(DMZ)를 포함한 민통선 일대는 지난 50여 년간 사람에 의한 인위적인 간섭을 적게 받은 지역으로 자연생태계가 잘 보전된 세계적인 환경보전지역이다. 그러나 최근 들어 개발에 따른 급격한 환경파괴가 가속화되고 있어 이에 대한 대비가 시급한 실정이다. 현재까지 발표된 조사지역에 대한 논문, 보고서 등 문헌자료와 청문조사를 토대로 조사된 포유동물상을 파악하였다. DMZ 및 군사접경지역 전체에서 서식하는 포유동물 중 문헌상으로 서식이 확인된 종은 모두 6목 17과 51종으로 조사되었으며, 이중 화천군, 철원군, 양구군 일대 중부지역에는 총 6목 14과 32종이 서식하는 것으로 조사되었다. 천연기념물로 지정된 종은 반달가슴곰(Ursus thibetanus), 수달(Lutra lutra), 사향노루(Moschus moschiferus), 산양(Nemorhaedus caudatus), 하늘다람쥐(Pteromys volans), 물범(Phoca largha)등 3목 6과 6종이었다. 이 조사를 통해 얻어진 종합적인 자연문화재 기초자원 조사결과는 향후, UNESCO의 세계자연보전지역 등록에 대비한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

습지는 물과 물 생태계의 점이지대로서 생태학적 및 경제학적 가치가 매우 높다. 내륙 담수습지 중에서 가장 중요한 하천습지는 서식지라기보다 유로(channel)로 인식되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 낙동강 하류 연안의 지류 내에 형성된 자연습지의 특성을 고찰하고 그 관리방안을 모색하였다. 지류 내의 자연습지는 하천이 중간 규모일수록 본류에서 먼 곳에 넓게 소택지를 이룬다. 이것은 자연습지가 지류의 하상종단곡선에 빙기에 굴삭된 구간과 간빙기에 매적된 구간이 불협화로 만나는 구간에 형성되기 때문이다. 이러한 자연습지들을 효과적으로 보전하기 위해서는 습지의 세부사항을 목록화 하고 정밀 지도를 작성하여야 한다. 그리고 자연습지를 개간한 농경지의 일부를 습지생태계로 되돌려 생태학습장이나 생태관광지로 개발하는 역간척이 필요하다.

This study was surveyed from January to september, 2007 in order to evaluate the function of coastal wetland as a ecological axis in korea peninsula. Assessment was done by RAM (Rapid Assessment Method). RAM is consisted of total 8 contents and divided into high, moderate, low. The preservation grade of RAM is divided into 4 grades; absolute preservation, preservation, improvement and improvement or restoration. Throughout survey on total 14 wetlands of marine, estuary wetland and back marsh which are distributed in west coast in chung-nam province, their function was assessed. As result, total all the 14 wetlands were judged as preservation grade by assessment of 8 functional contents. The function of wetlands assessed as preservation grade showed high in water quality protection and improvement. Also, showed high in vegetation diversity, wildlife habitat and aesthetic recreation. Meanwhile, showed low in ground water recharge, Shoreline/Stream Bank Protection, Flood/Stormwater storage and Flood flow alteration. Of wetlands evaluated as preservation grade, Dae-ho, Sinduri, Bu-Nam lake, Sowhang dune and keum river estuary were assessed as absolute preservative area owing to habitation of international protection species and endangered species. These wetlands are essential to be managed continuously as a area having high ecological value. Farther, this wetlands will be done as a axis of ecological network related to land ecosystem.

Problems and improvement plan in ecological pathways created by Environmental Impact Assessment(EIA) were found based on 504 expost environmental impact survey reports submitted to the National Institute of Ecology in 2016. A total of five improvement plans have been proposed. First, the concept and composition principle of ecological pathways should be unified. Second, Guidelines for consultation on the EIA should be provided for each stage to be applied on-site. Third, if ecological pathway is constructed differently than the consultation, the punishment clauses should be applied to prevent formal composition of ecological pathways. Fourth, We need to prepare measures to strengthen basic research for the installation of ecological pathways. Fifth, We need to strengthen the expost inspection function to compensate for the poorly created of ecological pathways. It is believed that the problems of ecological pathways created by consultation on environmental impact assessment could be corrected in the future. And it is deemed possible to systematically manage ecological pathways.

This study examined the habitat status of wild birds at closed-trails and the control group of opened-trails in the national park of the Baekdudaegan mountains. After evaluating each area based on this, it's aimed at being utilized as basic data for future national park management and opening of trails. Upon field investigations and analyzing existing literary materials, it was found that there were a total of 76 bird species living around the trails. Among them, it was confirmed that 60 species can breeding and 10 species are protected by law. Upon assessing the scores of each area according to the evaluation standards of this study, Area I had 7 scores, area II had 13 scores, area III had 5 scores, and area IV had 16 scores, showing that the control group open-trail area IV between Jeongryeongchi and Seongsamjae had the highest score, and that area III of Wolyeongdae~Chotdaebong~Daeyasan~Miljae~Wolyeongdae had the lowest score. Evaluation of closed-trail according to wild bird species (Avifauna) was attempted in this study, but there were more bird species living in open-trails, while also having higher evaluation scores. Therefore, if opening trail is needed in the future due to excessive desires of visitors or inevitable social demands, it is judged that various environmental factors including mammals highly affected by people should be evaluated to open up the sector with the lowest score. Also, it is judged that through methods such as reservation systems, the number of visitors should be controlled or night-time hikes should be prohibited so that nocturnal wildlife can freely use the trails.

본 계획은 중심행정타운의 마스터플랜으로 새로운 도시환경을 설정함으로서 도시조직의 형성에 있어 환경적이고 민주적인 원리를 나타내고자 하였다. 이러한 목표를 위해 'Flat city, Link City, Zero City'의 개념을 도입하였다. 이는 경관생태학의 관점에서 나타나는 공간구조의 배열, 연결 그리고 물질순환과 흐름을 나타낸다. 'Flat City'는 iconic plane으로 나타나는 정부청사의 형태로 공공을 위한 공원으로 확장되며 접근의 용이성과 함께 자연 속에서 모두에게 열려있다. 'Link City'는 보다 효율적인 기능과 소통을 위한 전략으로 연결된다. 정부기관과 공원, 녹지공간, 문화시설, 상업과 주거지역들이 상호연결의 네트워크를 만들어낸다. 'Zero City'는 도시기반시스템을 통합하여 쓰레기재활용, 오염저감 그리고 도시기초기능을 공급함과 동시에 새로운 야생서식처를 창조하여 도시의 이웃을 만든다. 이 제안은 건축, 도시, 조경에 의해 역사, 지역, 자연의 경험을 하나로 결합한 계획이다.

A purpose of this study is to develop practical indexes for improving a village environment in Kyongbuk, Korea. From a questionnaire survey of the public employees (71 persons) who take charge of the environment in Kyongbuk province, the indexes were produced and the contents of questionnaire consisted of preferential and supplementary indexes to apply. The preferential indexes which apply to an agricultural village and a stock raising village are environmental sanitation facilities, a hygienic check of livestock and a purge of livestock shed's surroundings. In case of mountainous village, and natural-ecological village the preferential indexes are habitat reservation for wildlife, poaching prohibition (monitoring for it), and food supplement for livestock. To the traditional-cultural village, prevention of noise pollution, environmental sanitation facilities, and a monitoring or water quality change are the prior indexes in order. For the village near city and the industrial village the preferential indexes are patrol removing of garbage, pollution index planting and monitoring for noise pollution. For a fishing village and a village fronting waterside excess uses of agricultural chemicals, monitoring for a water quality change, and realignment of green house with vinyl and warehouse. In conclusion the research presents the practical and preferential index for residents to improve their environment in accordance with village settings and suggests guidelines for further research.
