Functional values for wastewater treatment and atmospheric regulation in coastal wetland and rice paddy ecosystems are quantified, and an illustration is given on how to integrate biophysical parameters into a valuation framework. This is one of most controversial issues in economic analysis for wetland preservation versus wetland conversion to agricultural use. This paper includes theoretical considerations for estimating functional values of environmental ecosystems, and the integration of biophysical data and replacement cost method employed. Specific physical and geographical characteristics and data on ecosystem functions and services in coastal wetlands and rice paddies are addressed for evaluating their values in economic terms. In particular this paper indicates double counting problems and overestimation in the previous studies, and demonstrates how to avoid them and to maintain the consistency of valuation process involving a least-cost method, thus enables an accurate integration of the coastal wetland ecology and wetland economics. As a result which is far away from the previous studies, the total economic present value of wastewater assimilation by coastal wetland is estimated at 7,484,640 won/ha, and the net present value of positive effect for atmospheric regulation, negative effects for air pollution and water pollution by rice paddy is estimated at -37,934 won/ha, assuming that resources are infinitely long-lived and the annual value and the rate of discount (10%) is constant every year. In conclusion, for further reliability and validity of functional values for natural resources it is very noteworthy that a general equilibrium framework that could directly incorporate the interdependence between ecosystem functions and services would be preferred to the partial equilibrium framework.

Beside that the fish species and their sub-populations are highly important as a keystone species in the coastal and marine ecosystem, there are very few studies on their presence, distribution and temporal variations within and around the lagoon ecosystems in Albania. This paper provides an updated review on the life cycle, fishery, exploitation state and management of the main species that are subject of commercial fishing in the Karavasta lagoon, southeastern Adriatic coast of Albania. Due to the fact that lagoons represent a continuum between continental and marine aquatic ecosystems they play a crucial role in species life cycles. Further on in the circumstances of rapid utilizations and environmental changes, anomalies in salinity and temperatures, accelerated anthropogenic influences their rate of vulnerability is highly increased. Following the requirements of the Water Framework Directive, transitional water, coastal lagoons and estuaries there is a need for urgent monitoring and management approaches. The commercial species include: European eel (Anguilla anguilla), species of Family Mugilidae (Mugil cephalus, Liza ramada, Liza salienes and Chelon labrosus), Seabream (Sparus aurata), Seabass (Dincentrarchus labrax), etc. Fish productivity is oscillating from maximum value of 61.95 kg/ha is recorded in period of 1975-80 and lower value of 31 kg/ha in year 2020. Our study highlights importance of fish and fishery long-term monitoring, and contributes to understand the driving factors in productivity, migration patterns and species ecology in the vital coastal ecosystems.

The objective of this study is to enforce systematic evaluation on the present condition and ecosystem of coastal wetland to use frame of environmental indicators. For this, the indicators for evaluation of coastal wetland are established and are applied to the present condition. Then, the application possibility of this evaluation indicators and management method by group of coastal method are presented.

기후변화 위기상황에서 습지 생태계의 기후변화 완화 및 적응 기능이 더욱 강조되고 있으며, 탄소흡수원으로서 갯벌의 생태계 서비스가 중요시되고 있다. 현재 황해지역 갯벌 중 남한과 중국의 경우 UNESCO 세계자연유산 2단계 등재를 위한 준비를 하고 있으며, 향후 황해지역 갯벌을 통한 남북한 및 중국의 초국경협력이 기대되는 상황이다. 그러나 이동성 조류 서식지, 휴식지, 중간기착지로서 황해지역 갯벌의 중요성과 보전, 관리, 남북한 및 중국의 협력체계에 관한 연구는 부족한 상황이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 UNESCO 세계자연유산으로 등재된 남한의 서남해안 갯벌과 중국의 옌청자연보호구, 잠정목록에 등재된 북한의 문덕 습지보호구를 포함한 황해지역 갯벌을 중심으로 남북한 및 중국의 생태계 보전 협력 여건을 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 이동성 조류 서식지, 휴식지, 중간기착지로서 황해지역 갯벌의 중요성과 황해 연안습지 주요 특징, 북한과의 협력여건 등을 분석하여 황해 연안습지의 초국경보전지역 등재를 위한 생태계 보전 협력 방향을 제시하였다

Trace metals were investigated for the surface seawaters and mussels collected in adjacent sea to the Dokdo during 1999-2000. This study reports the temporal and spatial distributions of trace metals in seawaters and mussels of the Dokdo coastal areas. Clean technique for trace metal analyses was employed in all manipulations including the sampling and pretreatment procedures. The concentrations of dissolved Cu, Cd and Pb in the surface seawaters were similar to those of the previous data in the East Sea. Contents of particulate Al, Fe, Mn and Co were influenced by input of detrital materials from the Dokdo. The average EFs of particulate metals were to the order of Cd > Zn > Pb > Cu > Ni > Mn > Co > Fe, and the high values in Cd and Zn may be closely related to the preferential uptake of biogenic particles. With the exception of Cd, all metal contents in the mussels were in the same ranges with those from other world coastal areas. The Cd accumulation factor of mussel/seawater in this study was abnormally much higher than previous data from the Korean coasts.

Gunsan coastal area is one of region increasing pollution problems. To improve water quality, the reduction of these nutrients loads should be indispensible. In this study, the three-dimensional numerical hydrodynamic and ecosystem model were applied to analyze the processes affecting the eutrophication. In field survey, the average concentrations of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and dissolved inorganic phosphorus(DIP) at surface waters were found to be 0.43mg/$\ell$ and 0.03mg/$\ell$ respectively, which were exceeding second grade of water quality criteria. In hydrodynamic modelling, the comparison between the simulated and observed tidal ellipses showed fairly good agreement. The ecosystem model was calibrated with the observed data in study area. The simulated results of DIN were fairly good coincided with the observed values within relative error of 32.39%, correlation coefficient(r) of 0.99. In the case of DIP, the simulated results were fairly good coincided with the observed values within relative error of 24.26%, correlation coefficient(r) of 0.82. The simulations of DIN and DIP concentrations using ecosystem model were performed under the conditions of 20∼80% reductions for pollutant loading. At simulation results, concentration of DIN and DIP were reduced to 20∼80% and under 10% in case of the 80% reduction of pollutant loading, respectively.

최근 국내에서는 자연의 보호와 가치를 배려한 개발의 필요성과 그에 수반한 환경 의 다양한 가치가 국민들 사이에 인식되기 시작했다. 때문에 요즈음은 개발계획에 있어서 환경창조, 친환경, 또는 Mitigation 등의 캐치프레이즈 하에 구체적으로 지속 가능한 개발이 가능토록 계획되고 있다. (중략)

It is inevitable for dredging to increase the suspended sediment concentration (SSC) of the ambient waters in some degree, which has the potential to affect the coastal ecosystem in various manners. Thus, quantitative under- standing of dredging-induced sediment loss is essential fur the reliable environmental impacts assessment. (omitted)
