본 연구에서는 지명 '호남'에서 '호'의 기준점과 지명 등장 시기에 대한 기존의 논의를 살펴보고, 기준점이 명확하게 제시되지 못하는 이유를 지명이 의미하는 지리적 범위의 변화 가능성에 중점을 두어 논의했다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 기존에 제시되고 있는 '호'의 기준을 검토해 본 결과, 현재 인식하고 있는 '호남=전라도'를 기준으로 했을 때 방향과 지역적 장애 측면을 고려하면 호남 3호보다는 금강을 기준으로 그 남쪽 지역이라는 의미로서 '호남'이 타당성을 지닌다. 둘째, 기존에 제시되고 있는 기준 중에서 호남과 호서를 동시에 만족하는 지리적 기준점은 없다. 두 지명은 각각 다른 기준점을 기준으로 등장했을 가능성이 높다. 그러나 현재 인식하고 있는 '호남=전라도', '호서=충청도'와 같은 지리적 개념이 아닌 문화적 개념으로서 두 지명이 사용되기 시작한 시점은 조선시대 초기로 동일하다고 할 수 있다. 셋째, 고려시대와 조선시대에 각각 '호남'이 의미하는 지리적 범위가 각각 달랐을 가능성이 있다. 즉, 지명이 처음 등장한 고려시대 때에는 기준점의 남쪽이라는 지리적 의미가 중요했으나, 조선시대에는 문화권 개념으로 정착되면서 의미하는 지리적 범위도 변화했을 가능성이 있다. 넷째, 지명 등장 시기가 고려시대이고, 조선시대 이후 지리적 범위 변화가 있었다는 가정을 전제로 했을 때 호남 지방에서 '호(湖)'의 기준은 한강일 가능성이 있다.

행정구역으로서 '면(面)'은 자연적인 마을 단위와 가장 가까이에 접하고 있는 인위적인 행정구역이다. 시와 군단위의 행정구역명이 역사성이나 인식 측면에서 훨씬 광범위하지만, 면단위는 그 지역에 사는 사람에 한정되는 인식규모가 매우 적은 지리적 단위(범위)이며, 존속여부나 행정구역명의 변화가 가장 심한 행정구역 단위이다. 면단위에서의 지역 중심지가 확립된 것은 1917년 면사무소의 설치와 직접적으로 관련된다. 본 연구에서는 전라북도 전주시 조촌면(동)지역을 사례로 면단위 지역에서의 지리적 범위 변화와 지명(면명)의 변화 유형 및 의미하는 지역과 관계된 정체성, 면단위 지역규모에서 나타나는 지역 중심지의 형성과 그 요인을 살펴봤다. 조촌면의 지역 변화는 첫째, 전주시와 근접한 관계로 전주시의 팽창에 따른 편입 및 통합이 지리적 범위 변화에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 둘째, 조촌면은 지명(면명)을 유지하고는 있지만, 그 지명이 의미하는 지리적 범위는 달라졌다. 셋째, 신작로와 철도역의 개설, 일본인의 농장 개설, 면사무소의 설치, 정기시장 개장의 과정을 통해서 면의 중심지가 형성되었다.

Background: Climate change is occurring rapidly around the world, and is predicted to have a large impact on biodiversity. Various studies have shown that climate change can alter the geographical distribution of wild bees. As climate change affects the species distribution and causes range shift, the degree of range shift and the quality of the habitats are becoming more important for securing the species diversity. In addition, those pollinator insects are contributing not only to shaping the natural ecosystem but also to increased crop production. The distributional and habitat quality changes of wild bees are of utmost importance in the climate change era. This study aims to investigate the impact of climate change on distributional and habitat quality changes of five wild bees in northwestern regions of Iran under two representative concentration pathway scenarios (RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5). We used species distribution models to predict the potential range shift of these species in the year 2070. Result: The effects of climate change on different species are different, and the increase in temperature mainly expands the distribution ranges of wild bees, except for one species that is estimated to have a reduced potential range. Therefore, the increase in temperature would force wild bees to shift to higher latitudes. There was also significant uncertainty in the use of different models and the number of environmental layers employed in the modeling of habitat suitability. Conclusion: The increase in temperature caused the expansion of species distribution and wider areas would be available to the studied species in the future. However, not all of this possible range may include high-quality habitats, and wild bees may limit their niche to suitable habitats. On the other hand, the movement of species to higher latitudes will cause a mismatch between farms and suitable areas for wild bees, and as a result, farmers will face a shortage of pollination from wild bees. We suggest that farmers in these areas be aware of the effects of climate change on agricultural production and consider the use of managed bees in the future.

Hear infrared (NIR) spectra were measured, at five temperatures, for forty-eight samples of honey, from a variety of geographical and botanical sources, and the data has been used to explore the possibility of using NIR spectroscopy for testing label claims concerning the geographical and botanical source of honey being offered for sale to the public. These results demonstrate that the successful characterization of the botanical source of a honey may be obtained by NIR spectroscopy. Further work with large numbers of samples and groups will be required to realized this potential. Additional analysis of these data suggest that research into new ways of obtaining information on the change of absorption with temperature might be beneficial for a range of technologies.

Background: Citizen science is becoming a mainstream approach of baseline data collection to monitor biodiversity and climate change. Dragonflies (Odonata) have been ranked as the highest priority group in biodiversity monitoring for global warming. Ischnura senegalensis Rambur has been designated a biological indicator of climate change and is being monitored by the citizen science project "Korean Biodiversity Observation Network." This study has been performed to understand changes in the distribution range of I. senegalensis in response to climate change using citizen science data in South Korea. Results: We constructed a dataset of 397 distribution records for I. senegalensis, ranging from 1980 to 2020. The number of records sharply increased over time and space, and in particular, citizen science monitoring data accounted for the greatest proportion (58.7%) and covered the widest geographical range. This species was only distributed in the southern provinces until 2010 but was recorded in the higher latitudes such as Gangwon-do, Incheon, Seoul, and Gyeonggi-do (max. Paju-si, 37.70° latitude) by 2020. A species distribution model showed that the annual mean temperature (Bio1; 63.2%) and the maximum temperature of the warmest month (Bio5; 16.7%) were the most critical factors influencing its distribution. Future climate change scenarios have predicted an increase in suitable habitats for this species. Conclusions: This study is the first to show the northward expansion in the distribution range of I. senegalensis in response to climate warming in South Korea over the past 40 years. In particular, citizen science was crucial in supplying critical baseline data to detect the distribution change toward higher latitudes. Our results provide new insights on the value of citizen science as a tool for detecting the impact of climate change on ecosystems in South Korea.

Background: Understanding the geographical distribution of a species is a key component of studying its ecology, evolution, and conservation. Although Schlegel's Japanese gecko (Gekko japonicus) is widely distributed in Northeast Asia, its distribution has not been studied in detail. We predicted the present and future distribution of G. japonicus across China, Japan, and Korea based on 19 climatic and 5 environmental variables using the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) species distribution model. Results: Present time major suitable habitats for G. japonicus, having greater than 0.55 probability of presence (threshold based on the average predicted probability of the presence records), are located at coastal and inland cities of China; western, southern, and northern coasts of Kyushu and Honshu in Japan; and southern coastal cities of Korea. Japan contained 69.3% of the suitable habitats, followed by China (27.1%) and Korea (4.2%). Temperature seasonality (66.5% of permutation importance) was the most important predictor of the distribution. Future distributions according to two climate change scenarios predicted that by 2070, and overall suitable habitats would decrease compared to the present habitats by 18.4% (scenario RCP 4.5) and 10.4% (scenario RCP 8.5). In contrast to these overall trends, range expansions are expected in inland areas of China and southern parts of Korea. Conclusions: Suitable habitats predicted for G. japonicus are currently located in coastal cities of Japan, China, and Korea, as well as in isolated patches of inland China. Due to climate change, suitable habitats are expected to shrink along coastlines, particularly at the coastal-edge of climate change zones. Overall, our results provide essential distribution range information for future ecological studies of G. japonicus across its distribution range.

In Korea, the direction of houses are typically determined by considering the directional orientation and shape of the mountain range rather than ignoring the geographical feature of the mountain range. Traditional villages of Korea are known to have very particular ways of adopting the geomantic surroundings of natural environment. This is very true especially have a high mountain in the back and a lower mountain in front. At the same time, most of the houses tend to prefer south as a man direction so that they can receive more sun light. However, if the mountain range faces north, it will not be easy to determine the directional orientation of houses. This paper, therefore, tries to identify how the houses of villages facing north, direst the orientation. This, the northern village, solves the problem by facing all direction rather than one major direction. The houses of the villages facing north, tend to revise the direction by changing the back mountain(주산) or front mountain(인산) that helps them change the direction towards he range of eastern or western direction. As a result, the houses tend to the direction towards east and wes compared to north and south. The directional orientation of houses was clearly distributed or concentrated by depending of the shape and directional orientation of the mountain range. This kind of research let us know the relationship between the natural north direction, the direction of geomantic surrounding, and the direction of houses in traditional Korean villages.

Background: Climate change significantly influences the geographical distribution of plant species worldwide. Selecting indicator species allows for better-informed and more effective ecosystem management in response to climate change. The Korean Peninsula is the northernmost distribution zone of warm temperate evergreen broad-leaved (WTEB) species in Northeast Asia. Considering the ecological value of these species, we evaluated the current distribution range and future suitable habitat for 13 WTEB tree species designated as climate-sensitive biological indicator species. Results: Up-to-date and accurate WTEB species distribution maps were constructed using herbarium specimens and citizen science data from the Korea Biodiversity Observation Network. Current northern limits for several species have shifted to higher latitudes compared to previous records. For example, the northern latitude limit for Stauntonia hexaphylla is higher (37° 02' N, Deokjeokdo archipelago) than that reported previously (36° 13' N). The minimum temperature of the coldest month (Bio6) is the major factor influencing species distribution. Under future climate change scenarios, suitable habitats are predicted to expand toward higher latitudes inland and along the western coastal areas. Conclusions: Our results support the suitability of WTEB trees as significant biological indicators of species' responses to warming. The findings also suggest the need for consistent monitoring of species distribution shifts. This study provides an important baseline dataset for future monitoring and management of indicator species' responses to changing climate conditions in South Korea.
