  • This experiment evaluates wintering ability to maintain green color of lawn grasses during winter and investigates the effects of top dressing of fertilizer on improving green color during regrowth. Kentucky blue-grass could maintain green color and leaf chlorophyll content better than tall fescue and creeping bentgrass in winter. All three grasses in this experiment have shown the excellent wintering ability. In enhancing the recovery of green color at the early stage of regrowth, the mulching effect with rice straw was highly significant for creeping bentgrass. Green color recovery in grasses during its regrowth was better at the top dressing plots than at the plots without top dressing, but when fertilizer application levels were increased, green color in lawn grass did not significantly change. Although green color in tall fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, and Korean lawngrass could be maintained during summer, the green color of creeping bentgrass is reduced significantly with high temperature. Top dressing after winter and mowing improved leaf chlorophyll content and green color in tail fescue and Kentucky bluegrass significantly. However, Korean lawngrass did not respond significantly with increased levels of fertilizer.

  • The landscape setting of a habitat strongly influences the distribution, abundance, and species composition of waterfowl. Thus, habitat assessment is very important to understand the habitat characteristics that sustain waterfowl assemblages. In this study, we hypothesized that the excessive use of artificial materials when new wetlands are constructed negatively influences wintering waterfowl. To test this hypothesis, we measured environmental factors, assessed habitat, and investigated waterfowl at 13 artificial wetlands in the Nakdong River Basin. There were greater numbers of waterfowl species and individuals in artificial wetlands with high habitat assessment scores. In contrast, environmental factors did not affect waterfowl distribution. In particular, features of natural habitats, such as macrophytes and sandbars, and the surrounding land-use patterns were important factors for sustaining waterfowl assemblages in each created wetland. Our results show that promoting naturalness in wetlands and surrounding areas would increase the species diversity and abundance of waterfowl. Further, complex habitats, such as wetlands and some terrestrial habitats, support both aquatic and terrestrial species because mixed habitats feature a larger array of food sources than more limited habitats do.

  • 경사방향의 차이가 Orchardgrass가 우점된 산지초지에서 목초의 월동성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 1. 원동전 식물체의 초세는 1번초의 생육과 포장생존율 및 월동성에 미치는 영향이 컸다고 생각된다. 2. 상대경수출현율당 개체중(DW/RTAR)은 초세와 유의한 부의 상관을 나타낸 반면에, 월동전 개체당 경수, 1번초의 개체당 경수, 개체중, 포장생존율 및 상대경수출현율과는 유의한 정상관을 나타내었다. 3. 월동성은 서>북북서>동남동>남남서 사면의 순으로 높았다.

  • Black-tailed gulls, Larus crassirostris, have been known as resident birds in Korea, but their wintering and breeding habitat ranges were little known about. We investigated the habitat ranges of Blacktailed gulls breeding on Dokdo Island - which is the eastern end of their breeding colonies in Korea. Three adult Black-tailed gulls were fitted with Global Positioning System data loggers in May 2018 and their positions were tracked for 9 days, 245 days and 365 days each respectively. Black-tailed gulls stayed on Dokdo Island until June for breeding purposes and moved down to the southern part of Japan for wintering. The following year, a Black-tailed gull started to move northward in February and returned to Dokdo Island in April. They traveled a total of $207,334-229,507km^2$ (MCP) throughout a whole year. Based on location density categories accounting for 50% of locations, they used 3,618 to $3,803km^2$ in area. Black-tailed gulls breeding on Dokdo Island used smaller habitat ranges during the wintering period than the other periods. This is the first report on the habitat ranges of Black-tailed gulls breeding on Dokdo Island.

  • 돌나물의 노지 가을삽식을 위하여, 줄기의 삽수 부위(상부, 중부, 하부) 및 삽식 방법(점파, 조파 산파)에 따른 월동전후 생육특성을 조사하였다. 삽수부위에 따른 삽목후 40일째의 월동전 생육은 상부 삽수에서 초장, 근장, 줄기수, 지경수, 지상부 생체중 및 건물중 등에서 유의하게 높았으며, 월동후 개화전(May 10th) 생육은 개체당 줄기수, $m^2$당 지상부 생체중 및 건물중에서 하부 삽수보다 유의한 증가를 보였다. 삽식 방법에 따른 삽목후 40일째의 월동전 생육은 점파($10{\times}10cm$)가 조파나 산파보다 양호하였고, $m^2$당 지상부 생체중 및 건물중도 점파>산파>조파 순으로 높았다. 월동후 생육(May 10th)은 개체당 줄기수, $m^2$당 생체중 및 건물중에서 점파가 조파보다 유의하게 증가하였다. 돌나물의 가을 노지 삽식은 줄기 상부의 삽수를 이용하는 것이 월동 전후 생육 및 수량성에 유리하였으며, 삽식방법은 점파에서의 수량성이 가장 양호하였으나, 생력화를 위해서는 월동후 생체중에서 점파와 유의한 차이를 보이지 않은 혼파방법이 바람직할 것으로 기대되었다.

  • 귤굴나방은 제주도 감귤원에서 경제적으로 중요한 해충이지만, 상대적으로 월동생태와 관련된 연구는 부족하다. 본 연구에서는 귤굴나방이 월동과 관련하여 다음 해초기개체군 발생과 어떻게 연결되는지 발육단계별 저온 실내실험과 야외실험 및 노지 감귤원 포장조사를 통하여 구명하였다. 연구 결과, 동일한 저온 조건에서 귤굴나방의 발육단계에 따라 생존기간의 유의한 차이가 있었으며 성충이 번데기보다 더 오래 생존하는 것으로 나타났다. 귤굴나방 성충과 번데기를 야외 감귤원에 접종한 후 생존기간을 평가한 결과, 서귀포지역에서 성충은 다음 해 3월 24일까지 생존하였다. 이는 일반적으로 서귀포지역의 봄순 발아가 3월 중순에 시작된다는 사실을 고려했을 때 성충태로 월동한 귤굴나방이 다음 해 초기개체군을 형성할 가능성이 높다는 것을 의미한다. 반면에 번데기의 경우 제주시와 서귀포에서 1월을 넘기지 못하고 모두 사망하였다. 또한, 노지 감귤원 내 귤굴나방 발육단계별 밀도조사에서 다음 해 봄까지 노지 감귤원에서 생존한 번데기는 없었던 반면 성충은 모든 과원에서 지속적으로 발견되었다. 따라서 결과를 종합하여 판단해 볼 때, 제주도의 노지 감귤원에서 귤굴나방은 성충태로 월동하는 것으로 판단되며, 번데기의 경우 신초에 형성된 용방에서만 생존할 수 있다는 제약이 있기 때문에 겨울철 동해 피해를 받기 쉬운 신초에서 월동 후 다음 해 초기개체군 형성에 기여하는 것은 쉽지 않을 것으로 판단된다.

  • In relation to cold acclimation, this experiment was carried out to understand the changes of the cortical cells in the living barks of the mulberry during wintering period. The living barks of three mulberry varieties(Kaeryangppong, Shinilppong and Yongcheonppong) were sampled from December, 1995 to March, 1996. The result of this experiment was summarized as follows. The cortical cells in the living barks of the mulberry in December were filled with small vacuoles. Plastids and mitochondrias were located near the nucleus. At this time, almost all starch granules disappeared from the plastids. In January and February, mitochondria, palstids and microbodys of the cortical cell were observed. As increasing temperature from March, dictysomes and polysomes were sparse. Again, starch granules disappeared were observed in the plastids. From the above result. starch granules in plastide of the cortical cell of the mulberry disappeared during cold acclimation stage. After late January, Proplastid was observed in the cortical cell and the ultrastructures of cortical cell were actively changed.
