  • 본 연구는 다음과 같은 분석결과를 제시한다. 먼저 우리나라 10개 산업의 기술생태지형을 결정하는 상호연관관계 K는 9개로 나타났다. 이러한 주성분요인분석결과는 K=N-1의 기술생태지형 구조를 가지고 있음을 보여준다. 둘째, Kauffman NK모형에 따른 우리나라 기술생태지형은 K=N-1인 경우로 다 극점을 존재하는 적응체계로 매우 울퉁불퉁한 기술생태지형을 가지고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 우리나라의 기술생태계경우에 기술 또는 산업의 수 N이 증가함에 따라서 국소 최적 점의 수는 매우 빠르게 증대할 수 있다. 도출된 분석결과에 따를 경우에 매우 많은 국소 최적 점을 가진 기술생태지형에서 기술탐색과정은 전체 최적 기술조합 또는 기술개발에 효율적으로 도달하기 어려우며, 우리나라 기술생태지형은 매우 복잡한 진화 및 발전체계를 갖고 있음을 의미한다. 본 연구결과의 기술 정책적 시사점은 우리나라 산업간 그리고 기술간에 보다 너무 높은 상호연관성은 기술생태지형에서 효율적이고 창조적 기술개발에 어려움을 수반할 수 있다.

  • This study aims to explore how elementary students perceive and approach the issue of plastic debris in marine habitats by examining students' perspectives on the ecosystem and environmental solutions. The study was conducted to 143 Grade Four elementary school students in Seoul. After implementing two class-units on plastic waste, students' constructed responses on the problem of and solutions to plastic debris in marine habitats were collected. Data were analyzed through semantic network analysis and the keywords were visualized to reflect their relationships. Furthermore, students' responses on how they perceive environmental problems were further analyzed based on the following analysis criteria: students' perspectives on the ecosystem, the level of complexity of food chain(s), and the scope of their perspective. Also, student responses on environmental solutions were classified to be either at a personal or social level. Through semantic network analysis, keywords identified for students' perceptions on the problem were the sea, plastic, debris, animals, living things, humans, extinction, while keywords extracted for the solutions were plastic, debris, recycling, disposable, and I. Based on the analysis criteria, it was found that students were well aware of the food chain concept, could perceive the ecosystem as having comprised of both biotic and abiotic factors, and could approach the problem beyond the scope of the marine environment. Also, most students mentioned the solutions only at a personal level. Based on the findings, implications on how to move forward in educating environmental issues related to the ecosystem in science education is further discussed.

  • The purpose of this study is to emphasize the indispensability and generalization of ecological approach in landscape planning and design, by describing the main ecological principles and the process and method applying them to landscape planning and presenting the case study of ecological planning. Landscape architecture is the science dealing with nature and therefore ecological approach in it cannot be emphasized too much. The main ecological principles that must be considered in landscape planning and design are energy flow, food chains, biogeochemical cycles, limiting factors, carrying capacity and homeostasis, vegetational succession, ecotone and edge effect, ecological niche, etc.. The seven component factors of natural ecosystem are climate, geology, physiography, hydrology, soil, vegetation, wildlife. These seven factors are interrelated by the above mentioned ecological principles. In landscape planning and design process, it is necessary that landscape architect should interpret and assess not only the component factors of natural ecosystem but also the interrelationships and ecological principles immanent in them and apply the data to final plan.

  • 생태계서비스 상쇄 효과(Trade-off) 규명과 같이 서비스 간 상호관계를 측정하는 것은 한정된 환경자원을 관리하는 측면에서 매우 중요하다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 약 30여 년간 토지 피복이 변화함에 따라 파생된 생태계서비스 우세경향 및 증감을 파악하고, 시간의 경과에 따라 발생한 생태계서비스 상호 간 관계 변화를 추적하였다. 이를 통해 토지 피복 변화와 생태계서비스 변화 간의 관계 및 지역마다 상이한 서비스 변화의 특성을 규명하였다. 연구는 생태계서비스 평가 모델인 InVEST Model을 주로 활용하였고, 평가결과를 0-1사이로 표준화한 후 차원축소기법 중 하나인 주성분 분석을 거쳐 시계열변화를 관찰하고 서비스 상호 간 관계를 파악하였다. 연구 결과, 시가화 지역 면적은 1989년에서 2019년 사이 급격하게 증가했으며, 산림은 2009년에서 2019년 사이 크게 증가하는 양상을 나타냈다. 1989년에서 2019년 사이에 생태계서비스 공급량에 있어 전국적으로 수량 공급은 13.9% 감소, 질소 저류는 10.5% 감소, 인 저류는 2.6% 증가, 탄소 저장은 0.9% 감소, 대기정화는 1.2% 증가, 서식처 질은 3.4% 감소하였다. 우리나라는 지난 30여 년간 시가화 지역이 증가하고, 농경지가 감소하며, 산림이 증가하는 동안 인 저류 기능과 서식처 질 사이에 상쇄 효과를 보였다. 본 연구는 우리나라의 환경관리 정책이 도시화로 인해 하락한 생태계 질을 향상시키고 생태계서비스를 극대화하는데 기여했다는 결론을 도출하였다. 이러한 연구 결과는 정책결정자들이 지속 가능한 자연환경 보전과 생태계 서비스 제공에 중점을 둔 조림 정책을 수립하고 추진하는 데 도움을 줄 수 있다.

  • 세계적으로 스마트폰 열풍을 일으킨 애플사의 아이폰(iPhone)이 국내에 시판되면서, 우리나라에서도 스마트폰 시대가 본격적으로 열렸다. 이후 약 1년 반 만에 스마트폰 이용자가 천만을 돌파하는 등 확산 속도가 예상보다 빨랐으며, 이로 인하여 IT 산업의 생태계가 근본적인 변화에 직면하고 있다. 그러나 국내 이통사 및 제조업체 등은 이에 대한 대비가 충분치 못한 것으로 평가받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스마트폰 생태계에 대한 올바른 이해를 통하여 산업 주체들이 대응전략을 수립하는데 필요한 시사점을 제공하기 위하여 스마트폰이 몰고 온 새로운 생태계의 변화를 분석하였다. 구체적으로 스마트폰 생태계의 작동원리와 주체별 기회요인과 위협요인을 분석하고, 앞으로 IT 산업환경의 변화 방향을 거시적으로 전망하였다. 특히 네트워크의 가치중립화로 인하여 지배력이 이동통신 네트워크 사업자에서 OS 사업자로 이동하는 현상이 작금의 생태계 변화에서 가장 중요한 원천임을 확인하였다. 또한 산업연관분석을 이용하여 스마트폰 생태계로 인한 국민경제적 파급효과도 산정함으로서, 가치사슬을 따라 전후방 연관산업 구조를 파악하였고, 동 생태계의 경제적 실체와 성공적인 대응을 위한 정책적 노력의 필요성을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 기업과 규제기관이 새로운 환경에 적응하는데 필요한 시사점을 제안하였다.

  • Decomposition of plant material is an important component in the study of forest ecosystem because of its critical role in nutrient cycling. Different tree species has different nutrient release patterns, which are related to leaf litter quantitative traits and seasonal environmental factors. The quantitative traits of leaf litter are important predictors of decomposition and decomposition rates increase with greater nutrient availability in the forest ecosystems. At the ecosystem level, litter quantitative traits are most often related to the physical and chemical characteristics of the litter, for example, leaf toughness and leaf mass per unit area, and lignin content tannin and total phenolics. Thus, the analysis of litter quantitative traits and decomposition are highly important for the understanding of nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems. By studying the role of litter quantitative traits on decomposition and nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems will provide a valuable insight to how quantitative traits influence ecosystem nutrient dynamics. Such knowledge will contribute to future forest management and conservation practices.

  • Arbuscular mycorrhizal(AM) fungi have significant role for ecosystem structure and function. They are the major component of forest soil ecosystems and critically important for water and nutrient cycling in the system. To understand the ecology of AM fungi the fungal spores were collected, identified and counted in forest soils under various climatic and edaphic conditions. In relation to soil depth 90% of AM fungi spores and mycorrhizas distributed within 15cm soil depth. Number of spores per $100m{\ell}$ forest soil volume was 5 to 36 spores from 1 to 3 fungal species. AM fungal species diversity was higher in warmer climates, and more moist and fertile soils. The most frequently found species were Gigaspora decipiens irrespective of soil moisture and Gi. gigantea irrespective of soil fertility. In the Jeju island the soils of Cryptomeria japonica plantations and Miscanthus sinensis var. purpurascens meadow had more AM spores than the other soils. We suggest AM fungi be considered as keystones species when restoring a disturbed forest ecosystem.

  • South Africa has developed a policy and law that calls and provides for the equitable and sustainable use of water resources. Sustainable resource use is dependent on effective resource protection. Rivers are the most important freshwater resources in the country, and there is a focus on developing and applying methods to quantify what rivers need in terms of flow and water quality. These quantified and descriptive objectives are then related to specified levels of ecological health in a classification system. This paper provides an overview of an integrated and systematic methodology, where, fer each river, and each river reach, the natural condition and the present ecological condition are described, and a level/class of ecosystem health is selected. The class will define long term management goals. This procedure requires each ecosystem component to be quantified, starting with the abiotic template. A modified flow regime is modelled for each ecosystem health class, and the resultant fluvial geomorphology and hydraulic habitats are described. Then the water chemistry is described, and the water quality changes that are likely to occur as a consequence of altered flows are predicted. Finally, the responses to the stress imposed on the biota (fish, invertebrates and vegetation) by modified flow and water quality are predicted. All of the predicted responses are translated into descriptive and/or quantitative management objectives. The paper concludes with the recognition of active method development, and the enormous challenge of applying the methods, implementing the law, and achieving river protection and sustainable resource-use.

  • Major objectives of the study were to analyze chemical and biological influences of the river ecosystem on the artificial weir construction at three regions of Sejong-Weir (Sj-W), Gongju-Weir (Gj-W), and Baekje-Weir (Bj-W) during 2008-2012. After the weir construction, the discharge volume increased up to 2.9 times, and biological oxygen demand (BOD) and electrical conductivity (EC) significantly decreased (p < 0.05). Also, the decrease of total phosphorus (TP) was also evident after the weir construction, but still hyper-eutrophic conditions, based on criteria by , were maintained. Multi-metric model of Index of Biological Integrity (IBI) showed that IBI values averaged 21.0 (range: 20-22; fair condition) in the Bwc, and 14.3 (range: 12-18; poor condition) in the Awc. The model values of IBI in Sj-W and Gj-W were significantly decreased after the weir construction. The model of Self-Organizing Map (SOM) showed that two groups (cluster I and cluster II) of Bwc and Awc were divided in the analysis based on the clustering map trained by the SOM. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was similar to the results of the SOM analysis. Taken together, this research suggests that the weir construction on the river modified the discharge volume and the physical habitat structures along with distinct changes of some chemical water quality. These physical and chemical factors influenced the ecosystem health, measured as a model value of IBI.
