본 연구는 산지계류 및 산림유역의 산사태 등의 재해를 예방과 함께 생태적 보전을 지키기 위해 시공되는 기존 사방댐의 생태투과율과 생태차단높이의 분석에 의한 생태연결성에 대한 유형분류에 대한 기초자료를 제공함에 목적이 있다. 분석결과, 평균 표준도, 규격별 표준도 및 시공사례에 의한 평균생태투과율은 전체적으로 에코필라사방댐(64.0%) > 와이어로프사방댐(13.9%) > 슬릿트사방댐(10.9%) > 다기능사방댐(7.2%) > 중력식사방댐(0.4%)의 순으로 나타났다. 사방댐의 생태차단높이는 중력식사방댐(3.2 m) > 다기능사방댐(1.7 m) > 와이어로프사방댐(1.2 m) > 슬릿트사방댐(0.6 m) > 에코필라사방댐(0.0 m)의 순으로 나타났으나, 생태차단높이의 기준은 명확하지 않았다. 사방댐의 생태투과율과 생태차단높이의 분석을 이용하여 생태연결성 유형을 구분한 결과, 사방댐은 생태연결형, 생태부분연결형 및 생태단절형으로 구분할 수 있었다. 즉 (1) 생태연결형 사방댐은 하천 바닥에서부터 생태계가 개방되고, 횡단면 전체의 투과율이 20%이상으로 포유류, 파충류, 어류 및 양서류 등의 동식물의 생태적 연결성이 양호한 형태, (2) 생태부분연결형은 하천바닥으로부터 차단높이가 2 m 이하이고 횡단면 전체의 투과율이 5% 이상 20% 미만으로 상당부분 개방되고, 어도가 설치되어 양서류, 어류, 파충류 및 포유류 등의 동물의 소통이 어느 정도 가능한 형태, (3) 생태단절형은 하천바닥으로부터 차단높이가 2 m 이상이고, 횡단면 전체의 투과율이 5%미만으로 산지계류를 통한 동 식물의 생태적 연결이 거의 단절되는 형태로 구분하였다. 이상과 같이 사방댐의 유형분류는 산지계류의 수변생태계를 고려한 연구개발이 지속적으로 이루어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

As populations inhabiting in natural ecosystem are fragmented by artificial barriers and habitats are destructed by development, extinction possibility of species is getting higher. It is necessary to design and to manage conservation areas and corridors considering animals' movement and migration for sustainable species diversity in present circumstances. 'Least-cost modeling' is one commonly employed approach in which dispersal costs are assigned to distinct habitat types and the last-costly dispersal paths among habitat patches are calculated using a geographical information system (GIS). This study aims to design ecological corridor using least-cost path method and to apply it to a regional ecological network considering movability of medium-large size mammals. This study was carried out over the metropolitan area, which has been deforested by rapid urbanization. Nevertheless there is connected with Gangwon province, Baekdudaegan mountain range and DMZ, considered where many forest species can migrate to this region. This study employs such an approach to develop least-cost path models for medium-large size mammals, have inhabited for this entire region. Considering those species, two forest areas as a source of species supply and forest areas more than 1,000ha are selected as focal forest areas. Movement and migration paths from species supply sources to focal forest areas are calculated by applying landscape permeability theory using land cover map, road density map and land slope map. Results showed least-cost paths from species supply sources to focal forest areas on two species. Wildcat and roe deer are different in some least-cost paths caused by their landscape permeability but paths show generally same specifics. The result of considering regional distribution of expected movement and migration paths to regional ecological network, low altitude mountains of western metropolitan area are evaluated important area for species connectivity. In national or regional levels ecological connectivity is essential to promote species diversity and to preserve integrated ecosystem. This study concludes that developing least-cost models from similar empirical data could significantly improve the utility of these tools.

This study aims to analyze the effect of urban ecosystem restoration projects by evaluating the short-term restoration performance of the project sites, from both qualitative and quantitative evaluations. In this study, for the qualitative evaluation, we derived the evaluation frame from previous studies and literature. For the quantitative evaluation, the changes in ecological connectivity after the restoration project were described using landscape permeability and network analysis. In addition, changes in habitat quality after the restoration project were evaluated by using InVEST Habitat Quality Model. These evaluations were applied to the three natural madang (ecological restoration) projects and two ecosystem conservation cooperation projects. As a result, three categories, 10 indicators, and 13 sub-indicators were derived from literature as the evaluation frame for this study. In the case of quantitative evaluation of restoration performance, habitat quality increased by 45% and ecological connectivity by 37% in natural-madang, and habitat quality by about 12% and ecological connectivity by about 19% in ecosystem conservation cooperation projects. This implies that the ecological restoration project can increase the ecological connectivity and the habitat quality of degraded sites even in a short period of time by improving the land-cover and land use. The results by applying the evaluation frame indicated that ecological and environmental factors and the ecological functions were improved by the restoration works, even though the magnitude of performances were diverse depending on the specific evaluation items, project type, and site characteristics. This study clarified that the success of ecological restoration project should be assessed by both of the short-term and long-term goals, which can be achieved by the maintenance and sustainable management, respectively.

Although a dry-system tunnel is not good for reasons fo economy and construction, it has been applied to some tunnels under construction owing to the advantages of good long-term maintenance of tunnel, prevention of consolidation settlement due to the drawdown of groundwater, preservation of the ecosystem, cutailment of operation cost, and so on. The stability of groundwater and the change of the applied water pressure after water proofing were analysed by the finite element method. Using this result, an example of designing the secondary lining for the dry-system tunnel which is to be constructed in low-permeability hard rock was presented.

중${\cdot}$저준위 방사성폐기물 처분시설의 주 인공방벽으로 콘크리트 구조물이 고려되고 있다. 콘크리트는 투수성이 낮아 물의 침투를 최소화할 수 있으며, 핵종 물질의 누출 차단에도 효과적이기 때문이다. 그러나 콘크리트에 열화가 발생하면 처분구조물의 구조적 안정성이 낮아지며, 투수성이 증가하여 외부로부터 물의 침투로 인한 핵종물질 누출 가능성이 높아진다. 따라서 처분구조물의 오염물질 격리 성능을 증진하기 위해서는 콘크리트의 열화를 최소화하여야 한다. 콘크리트 구조물의 대표적 열화 원인으로 황산염의 침투, 염화물 침투에 의한 철근 부식, 칼슘 수산화물의 침출, 알카리-골재 반응, 그리고 구조물의 반복적인 동결-융해가 있다. 이러한 열화과정의 공통적 원인은 구조물에 물 및 유해한 화학물질이 침투하기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 열화원인 및 메커니즘 검토에 기초하여 인공방벽으로서 콘크리트 처분구조물의 장기적 내구성을 확보하기 위한 설계 및 설계수명 평가 방안을 검토하였다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of environment-friendliness of waterproof materials based on comprehensive experiments on waterproofness in terms of coefficients of permeability, harmfulness of waterproof materials and fish toxicity of Oryzias latipes mortality to verify eco-toxicity of each method of construction and waterproof material, which are to be applied by taking eco-toxicity into account when building ecological flows in upper areas on natural and artificial grounds. As a result, the following conclusions have been reached in this study: 1. In regard of the harmfulness analyzed, each material showed a different result of analytical value in each lab tank. Compared to input water, pH, COD, SS, T-P, and T-N values increased a little, but DO value decreased. The value of turbidity analyzed independent of the water quality standard of aquatic ecosystem set forth by the Ministry of Environment increased a little compared to the value in input water. 2. In the experiment of fish toxicity, compacted quicklime, cement fluid waterproof material, cement mortar waterproof material and bentonite powder were found to have 100% of fish mortality, respectively, and membrane waterproof material showed 83.3% of mortality, indicating strong fish toxicity. Improved asphalt sheet (63.3%) and synthetic rubber sheet (53.3%) were analyzed to have medium fish toxicity, while bentonite sheet (6.7%), Hwang-toh (6.7%) and clay (3.3%) showed relatively lower mortality and fish toxicity. 3. Regarding the analysis on waterproofness in terms of the coefficient of permeability of each waterproof material, improved asphalt sheet, synthetic rubber sheet, membrane waterproof material, cement fluid and mortar waterproof material and bentonite sheet were found impervious in case no leakage takes place in construction. Bentonite powder was found practically impervious based on the analytical results from the experiment done in compliance with weight ratios. So were the clay and Hwang-toh from the experimental results. To sum up such results as found in the experiment mentioned so far, the values of harmfulness and waterproofness analyzed were different in each lab tank, but there was absolutely little correlation with the mortality gained from the experiment on fish toxicity. In the experiment of fish toxicity, environment-friendly waterproof materials were analyzed, and it was found that clay, Hwang-toh and bentonite sheet are highly environment-friendly. In contrast, synthetic rubber and improved asphalt sheets were found to have medium-level environment-friendliness. Also, membrane water-proof materials, compacted quicklime, cement fluid and mortar waterproof material and bentonite powder were analyzed to have low environment-friendliness.

This study aims to quantitatively evaluate the conservation priorities of unexecuted urban parks in Seoul both from an ecological and public perspective. To this end, two methodologies, ecological network analysis based on graph and circuit theory and accessibility analysis, were employed in order to assess ecological connectivity of and public accessibility to unexecuted parks, respectively. This study applied linkage-mapping methods (shortest path and current flow betweenness centrality) of connectivity analysis to an integrated map of landscape permeability. The population-weighted accessibility to unexecuted parks was measured based on a negative exponential distance decay function. As a result, for both ecological connectivity and accessibility, Gwanaksan, Suraksan, and Bulamsan urban natural parks are found to be the most important (rank 1-3) to be conserved. For these sites, inner park areas with conservation priorities for connectivity and accessibility were identified. The findings of the study can be used for giving conservation priority to the unexecuted urban parks in terms of long-term sustainable urban planning.

일반적으로 레미콘(ready-mixed concrete(RMC))은 시간이 경과하면 굳게 되므로 드럼내부의 잔류 콘크리트를 세척해야만 한다. 이에 따라 발생하게 되는 레미콘 세척수는 일반 토양에 그대로 방류하게 될 경우 강한 알칼리성분과 중금속에 의한 수질오염으로 생태계에 영향을 미치게 된다. 레미콘 공장에서 세척수로 사용되는 물의 약 10~15%가 토양이나 하천으로 방류되고 있으나 이로 인한 구체적인 토양오염 보고는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 전국 레미콘공장의 세척수를 채취 분석하고 이를 여러가지 투수성을 가진 토양에 침투시켰을 때 토양에 잔류하는 중금속 성분과 pH성분을 분석하였다. 실험에 사용된 시료는 풍화토와 각각 입경이 다른 모래를 사용하였으며, 일정한 층 두께를 유지하고 24시간 동안 침투시켰다. 세척수는 침전 처리 전(슬러지수)과 침전처리 후(상등수)로 나누어 토양에 침투시켰으며, 슬러지수를 토양에 침투시킨 결과 Cu와 Mn, Fe, Zn이 23~90% 이상 잔류하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 침전 처리를 거친 상등수는 풍화토에서만 Cu와 Mn이 60%이상 잔류하는 것으로 분석되었다.

The use of antibiotics in aquaculture raises environmental and food safety concerns because chronic exposure of an aquatic ecosystem to antibiotics can result in the spread of antibiotic resistance, bioaccumulation of antibiotics in the organisms, and transfer of antibiotics to humans. In an attempt to overcome these problems, high-concentration red clay was applied as an alternative antibiotic against the following common fish pathogens: Aeromonas salmonicida, Vibrio alginolyticus, and Streptococcus equinus. The growth of A. salmonicida and V. alginolyticus was retarded by red clay, whereas that of S. equinus was promoted. Phase contrast and scanning electron microscopy analyses confirmed the attachment of red clay on cell surfaces, resulting in rapid gravitational removal and cell surface damage in both A. salmonicida and V. alginolyticus, but not in S. equinus. Different cell wall properties of grampositive species may explain the unharmed cell surface of S. equinus. Significant levels of oxidative stress were generated in only the former two species, whereas significant changes in membrane permeability were found only in S. equinus, probably because of its physiological adaptation. The bacterial communities in water samples from Oncorhynchus mykiss aquacultures supplemented with red clay showed similar structure and diversity as those from oxytetracycline-treated water. Taken together, the antibiotic effects of high concentrations of red clay in aquaculture can be attributed to gravitational removal, cell surface damage, and oxidative stress production, and suggest that red clay may be used as an alternative for antibiotics in aquaculture.
