  • 본 연구는 북한산 국립공원을 대상으로 등산로가 산림경관의 파편화에 미치는 영향을 분석한 후, 이를 토대로 소유역별 경관생태학적 건전성을 평가하였다. 등산로 개설에 의한 영향 분석 결과에 따르면, 산림패치의 크기는 감소한 반면 패치 및 가장자리 밀도는 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 패치형태는 보다 복잡해지고, 핵심지역의 면적은 뚜렷하게 감소하였고, 패치간의 근접도는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 소유역별 경관생태학적 건전성 평가 결과, 종합적인 건전성은 북한산유역이 3.7점으로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 구기유역이 1.6점으로 가장 낮게 평가되었다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때, 산림의 경관생태학적 보전과 관리를 위해서는 불필요한 등산로의 개설을 금지하고, 훼손 및 교란 지역에 대한 자연적인 생태학적 복원이 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the current urban forest network and future plan of forest framework using nearest features program where stepping stones within 5km from the core forest were selected in the program. We found several conclusions as follows: First, we found that cities in inland area including Daegu, Dajeon and Gwangju have quite different types of forest network with comparing to the cities nearby coastline including Busan, Incheon and Ulsan. The cities in inland area have large mountain patch around each city. However they have small and lower number of island forests within their urban area. Otherwise, cities nearby coastline have more forest patches than in the cities in inland area, and Busan and Incheon especially have strong forest network using various size of forest patches. Second, Daegu and Daejeon have much smaller forest patches distributed in each urban area. So additional forest patches should be added to have highly strong forest network within urban area. Third, Ulsan and Gwangju have most stepping-stone forests close to the large mountain patches in suburban area, which are not able to connect to the forest patches in the central area of each city So additional forest patches are needed to be added in the central area of each city for reinforcing the effect of stepping stone in the central area. Though there should be an addition approach except for forest size and its isolation to construct the ecological network in an urban area, this indices can be a good method to check an environmental and ecological status in an urban area.

  • This work investigated heavy metal pollution in surface sediments of rivers in Busan, Korea. Surface sediments were analyzed in order to conduct contamination assessment of organic matter, nutrients, and heavy metal concentrations. Contamination assessment of heavy metals was conducted using geoaccumulation index (Igeo), pollution load index (PLI), and potential ecological risk index (RI). Accumulation of organic matter and nutrients were affected by water discharged from sewage treatment plant. The concentrations of organic matter and nutrients were found to be greater in points which were close to the sewage treatment plant more than points furthest. The concentrations of Pb, Zn, Cu, Cd, Hg, As, Cr, and Ni were found to be greater in surface sediment more than in the background. The mean concentrations of heavy metals were in the order of Zn (323.5 mg/kg) > Cu (70.5 mg/kg) > Pb (39.8 mg/kg) > Cr (33.4 mg/kg) > Ni (13.5 mg/kg) > As (9.4 mg/kg) > Cd (0.84 mg/kg) > Hg (0.092 mg/kg). The result of geoaccumulation indices indicated that Hg > Cr > Cu > Ni > Zn > As > Pb > Cd were found in order of severe contamination by heavy metals. From PLI and RI analysis, it was evident that the Suyeonggang 2 was the most contaminated river.

  • Hwapocheon stream is located in Gimhae-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, and a part was declared a protected wetland area in 2017. In 2020 and 2021, we investigated the community structure of benthic macroinvertebrates of the Hwapocheon stream to provide ecological information for the management of the wetland. As a result, 4 phyla, 6 classes, 20 orders, 51 families, 83 species, and 2,621 individuals of benthic macroinvertebrates were identified. The average indices of diversity, richness, and evenness were the highest in the midstream area, whereas the highest average index of dominance was observed upstream. Seven biological water quality evaluations based on the distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates showed that the Biological Monitoring Working Party was an extremely suitable method for environmental evaluation of the Hwapocheon stream. Regarding functional feeding groups, the number of species of predators and gathering-collectors was the highest, and considering habitual dwelling groups, the number of species of clingers and sprawlers was the highest. The species number of Odonata, Hemiptera, and Coleoptera increased toward the downstream area, whereas the community loss index was the highest upstream. We also investigated relative resistance and resilience based on the distribution of aquatic insects and found that community stability was the highest downstream, whereas the lowest upstream.

  • 에머지 개념을 이용하여 영산강하구역, 섬진강하구역, 한강하구역의 자연환경과 사회경제활동을 평가하고 하구역 관리와 관련한 시사점을 제시하였다. 영산강하구역, 섬진강하구역, 한강하구역의 자연환경과 사회경제활동에 대한 에머지 평가는 대형 하천이 유입하는 환경적 특성과 주변 지역의 사회경제활동 중심으로 기능하는 경제적 특성 등 이들 하구역의 특성을 잘 보여주었다. 각 하구역으로 유입하는 주요 자연환경 에머지는 하천, 조석, 강수 등 이었다. 그러나 이들 재생가능에머지가 세 하구역의 전체 에머지 유입량에서 차지하는 비율은 8% 미만으로 아주 적었다. 이에 비해 하구역의 외부에서 구입하여 지역경제에 투입하는 에머지의 비율은 $92{\sim}98%$로 대부분을 차지하였다. 단위면적당 에머지사용량, 인구수용력, 환경부하비율, 에머지지속성지수 등 다양한 에머지 지수가 현재 영산강하구역, 섬진강하구역, 한강하구역에서 이루어지고 있는 사회경제활동의 지속성이 아주 낮다는 것을 보여주었다. 영산강하구역, 섬진강하구역, 낙동강하구역의 자연환경이 우리 경제에 기여하는 가치는 $729{\sim}2,206$만 Em\/ha/yr으로 높게 평가되었다. 이는 우리나라 전체평균보다 2배 이상 높은 것인데, 하구역의 자연환경이 가지고 있는 생태경제적 중요성을 반영한다. 따라서 각 하구역이 가지고 있는 생태적 경제적 잠재력을 유지하고 회복하기 위한 하구환경관리정책의 수립 시행이 시급하다고 할 수 있다. 이는 인구 및 경제 집중의 완화, 하구의 환경수용력을 고려한 이용 개발 등 하구환경에 압력에 미치는 부정적 영향을 줄이기 위한 수요조절 측면의 정책과 훼손된 생태계의 복원, 인공생태계의 조성 등 생태계의 구조와기능을 회복하여 우리가 이용할 수 있는 생태계 서비스를 증가시키는 공급조절 측면의 두 가지 방향으로 추진할 필요가 있다.

  • Community structure of benthic macroinvertebrates in the water system of Anyang Stream was analyzed from August, 2002 to April, 2003. Species number of benthic macroinvertebrates was 78 species, 33 families, 11 orders, 5 classes in 3 phyla. They were collected 49 species at 1st survey, 51 species at End survey and 53 species at 3rd survey, respectively. Species numbers at each tributary were 43 species at the Wanggok Stream, 44 species at the Mokgam Stream, 33 species at the Ohjeon Stream and 26 species at the Hakeu Stream, while it was only 9 species at the Dangjeong Stream. Species number of the main course of Anyang Stream was 24 species. Dominant species of benthic macroinvertebrates at the Wanggok, Ohjeon and Hakeu Stream were Baetis fuscatus, Alainites muticus, Physa acuta and chironominae sp. They were mainly intermediate and tolerant species. Dominant species and subdominant species of the Dangjeong Stream were Limnodrilus socialis, Psychoda KUa and Telmatoscopus KUa as indicator species for severe sewage pollution. Dominant species at Geumjeong-dong and KUa bridge in the main course of Anyang Stream were Physa acuta, Limodrilus gotoi, Chironominae sp., Species diversity indices at the Mokgam Stream were $high(3.53\~4.28\;range)$ and those of the Hakeu, Wanggok and Ohjeon Stream were some what high$(2.00\~3.13\;and\;2.34\~3.10\;range)$. But, species diversity indices in the Dangjeon Stream were low$(1.36\~1.70\;range)$ too. and those of the main course of Anyang Stream were low$(0.86\~1.79\;range)$ too. Species richness indices in the Wanggok and Mokgam Stream were very high$(3.55\~4.02\;and\;2.96\~5.31\;range)$ and those of Geumjeong-dong and Kia bridge in the main course of Anyang Stream were low$(0.89\~1.98\;range)$. Stream bed and riparian bank of middle reach in the Wanggok Stream were good condition and water was clean. The Mokgam Stream had various microhabitats, good water weed area, hetero geneous substrates and etc.. And, stream bed in the Hakeu Stream was in good condition. So, above streams should be continuously in good ecological condition and useful area for citizens.

  • 영국은 1990년대, 특히 신노동당 정부 이후 지속가능발전 또는 탄소규제를 국가 발전의 핵심 전략으로 추진해 왔다. '정부를 녹색화'하고자 하는 이러한 영국 환경정책과 더불어 실제 에너지환경지표의 가시적 성과는 '저탄소 녹색성장'을 추구하고자 하는 우리나라의 정책 입안가 및 연구자들의 주목을 끌었다. 이 논문은 이러한 영국의 탄소규제 전략과 환경정책의 특성을 단순히 정책적 통합화 또는 주류화를 넘어서 새로운 국가발전 전략, 즉 '생태적으로 근대화된' 국가, '생태국가' 또는 '녹색국가' 전략으로 규정하고자 한다. 즉 최근 영국은 탄소규제를 국가 정책의 통합적 원칙으로 설정하는 한편 주로 시장-의존적 신자유주의에 바탕을 두고 국가 전체를 동원하는 녹색국가 전략을 추진하고 있는 것으로 이해된다. 이러한 점에서 이 논문은 영국의 탄소규제 관련 환경정책의 전개과정을 서술한 후, 탄소규제를 녹색국가 발전을 위한 새로운 원칙이며, 실제 중앙정부 부처들과 지자체들을 통합하기 위한 거버넌스 구축의 바탕이지만, 신자유주의에 포섭된 것으로 재평가하고자 한다. 또한 이 논문은 영국의 이러한 녹색국가 전략의 직 간접적 성과라고 할 수 있는 최근 에너지 환경지표의 동향을 분석하고, 경험적 재평가로서 영국의 에너지 수입의존도 증대, 에너지 혼합에서 석탄 비중의 증가, 전력 생산의 민영화, 재생가능에너지 생산의 한계, 그리고 에너지 이용 및 온실가스 배출의 공간적 불평등 등을 지적하고자 한다.

  • 산림의 단편화와 같은 인위적 교란은 유역생태계의 지속성에 영향을 미치기 때문에, 본 연구는 각종 개발사업에 따른 산림의 단편화를 사전에 예방하기 위해서 경관지수와 GIS를 이용하여 금호강 유역에 분포하는 산림구조를 정량화하였다. 소유역 단위의 경관지수값은 인자분석에 의해 전체 분산을 85% 정도 설명하는 3개의 공통인자를 단순화하였다. 산림단편화 정도는 소유역별 인자점수를 토대로 계산하였고, 이는 도시지역 면적률(r=0.827, p<0.01, $R^2$=0.685), 고도(r=-0.637, p<0.01) 그리고 경사도(r=-0.593, p<0.01)와 상호관련성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상과 같이 본 연구는 금호강 유역관리를 위한 산림경관의 건전성 빛 구조적 패턴을 평가하기 위한 방법론과 경관지수값을 제시하였다. 향후에는 경관패턴 및 그 변화가 유역환경의 건전성에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위한 연구가 필요할 것이다.

  • Mushroom surveys and collections were conducted in the western and eastern forest areas in Cambodia, and then fungal biodiversity was analyzed by identifying mushrooms. One thousand and three hundreds eighty three specimens were identified by morphological and genetical characteristics, and were classified into 238 species, 160 genera, 52 families, 15 orders, and 3 phylums. The collected mushrooms were immersed in 70% ethyl alcohol for DNA extraction, and the rest of them were dried in the portable mushroom dryer for 12 hrs. Among these mushrooms, the genera Mycena (8.7%), Ganoderma (5.6%), Microporus (5.3%), Marasmius (4.2%), Marasmiellus (3.0%), Phellinus (2.5%), Trametes (2.5%), Hygrocybe (1.9%) and Pycnoporus (1.5%) were dominant. In the western Cambodia, 1,061 specimens were collected from Koh Kong forests, while 263 specimens were collected from the eastern Cambodia, Seima and Mondulkiri forests. Elevations of surveyed sites were ranged from 0 to 750 m above sea level. The number of species observed in the elevation of 251-500 m was the highest as compared to the other ranges of elevation. Daldinia concentrica, Microporus vernicipes, Microporus xanthopus, Pycnoporus coccineus, Stereum hirsutum, and Stereum ostrea were commonly distributed in all ranges of elevation, while the distribution of Ceratomyxa fruticulosa, Panus fulvus, Schizophyllum, Trametes versicolor, and Tyromyces chioneus were limited under 500 m. One hundred and forty one species including Amauroderma sp., Bjerkandera adusta, Trichaptum abietinum, and Tyromyces chioneus were collected only in Cardamom, while 20 species including Auricularia auricula-judae, Coriolopsis sanguinaria, Rigidoporus microporus, and Xylaria polymorpha were collected only in Seima. Ganoderma sp., Mycena sp., Marasmius sp., Microporus xanthopus, Phellinus sp., and Russula sp. were dominant species in both the western and eastern Cambodia. Species diversity indices in the eastern and western survey sites were 1.83 and 1.77, respectively, while evenness indices were 0.92 and 0.90. The species similarity index between two survey sites was 0.42.

  • The objective of this study was to investigate the pollution assessment of organic matters, nutrients, and metals in sediment in major lakes (5 lakes and 17 sites) of Buk-han river using various sediment pollution assessment guidelines and indices. The concentrations of organic matters and nutrients were lower than class IV (Sediment pollution assessment guidelines of Korea) and Severe Effect Level (SEL, Sediment pollution assessment guidelines of Ontario). This results indicated that the lakes sediments were unpolluted and tolerable level for sediment dwelling organisms by organic matters and nutrients. However, several sites of Chuncheon and Soyang lakes were evaluated "heavily polluted" level by organic index (Org-index). The order of lakes by metals concentrations from the one with the highest concentration was Hwacheon, Chuncheon, Cheongpyeong, Uiam, Soyang. All lakes except Hwacheon were assessed unpolluted to marginally and tolerable level for sediment dwelling organisms by metals based on sediment pollution assessment guidelines (Korean and Ontario), indices of geoaccumulation ($I_{geo}$), pollution loading (PLI) and ecological risk (RI). In Lake Hwacheon, every investigated sites were polluted with metals, especially Hg, based on sediment pollution assessment guideline of Korea and indices ($I_{geo}$, PLI and RI). The dwelling organisms in sediment of Hwacheon Lake were likely to be severed by metals.
