  • The study aims to establish a direction for forest ecological restoration by classifying forest types and understanding the ecological characteristics of the Uljin forest area damaged by a large fire in 2022. Hierarchical cluster analysis and indicator species analysis were conducted on 78 survey plots located in the forest fire-affected area, and four forest cover types were derived: P. densiflora pure forests, P. densiflora dominant forests, mixed broad-leaved forests, and Q. variabilis dominant forests. As a result of visually comparing changes in forest types before and after forest fire damage, by classifying data according to whether or not upper dead trees are included, it was confirmed that pine forests, which have a high proportion of pine trees, spread widely due to forest fire damage. However, broad-leaved mixed forests and oyster oak dominant forests showed characteristics of maintaining concentration, indicating that pine forests were severely damaged. As a result of the important value analysis, during the process of natural recovery after a forest fire, the species that appear early in the lower layer are the sprouts of existing species such as Quercus mongolica Fisch. ex Ledeb., Quercus variabilis Blume, Fraxinus sieboldiana Blume, Rhododendron mucronulatum Turcz. The distribution of diameter at breast height by forest cover type showed that among areas with extreme forest fire damage, the proportion of dead trees was relatively high and structural changes were large in P. densiflora pure forests and P. densiflora dominant forests where pine trees had a high distribution ratio. However, if continuous monitoring is carried out in the future with reference to the results of this study and plant data is collected and analyzed from a mid- to long-term perspective, it is believed that it will be used as useful data to promote forest ecological restoration projects in forest fire-affected areas.

  • 본 연구는 2019년 발생한 강원 고성·속초, 강릉·동해 대형산불 직후 산불의 영향으로 수목의 수관부가 완전 연소되거나, 직간접적인 열해 피해로 인해 고사되어 가는 과정을 다목적실용위성(KOMPSAT-2호, 3호) 영상자료를 활용하여 시간경과에 따른 산불 피해강도별 피해면적의 변화를 정확하게 산정하는데 목적이 있다. 피해강도별 피해면적 산출을 위해 산불 직후 위성영상자료와 15~18일 경과 후의 두 시기 영상자료를 이용하였다. 산불 직후와 일정기간 경과 후 촬영한 위성영상자료의 산불피해강도 분석결과는 '수관전소(Extreme)' 지역에서는 큰 변화가 없었으나 '수관열해(High)' 지역과 '지표화(Low)' 지역에서는 큰 면적차이를 보였다. 이러한 피해강도의 차이에 따른 피해면적의 변화는 산불 영향으로 인해 수관부가 서서히 갈색으로 변색되어 가는 과정에 의한 것으로 판단된다. 산불피해지역의 위성영상 분석결과와 현장사진, 드론 영상을 종합해 볼 때 산불 직후 3~4일 후부터 수관부의 갈변현상(Browning)이 나타나고 10~15일 경과 후엔 수관부의 갈변현상이 뚜렷해지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구결과를 통해 향후 대형산불지역의 신속한 피해면적 파악은 물론 수관열해로 인한 고사 기작을 파악함으로써 산불피해지 복구계획 수립을 위한 의사결정의 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • With the increase of apartments and expansion of balcony areas, fire safety issues are becoming more important. Many researchers have conducted a lot of researches to reduce vertical flame spread in the balcony when an apartment unit is in fire. However, there have rarely been studies to use balcony area as a space for fire escape and evacuation. The study aims to examine the conditions of balcony use in apartments in order to find out prevention elements from fire escape and evacuation, and to investigate residents' satisfaction with balcony. For this study, questionnaires were collected from apartment residents and workers of architectural planning and construction companies. The findings show as follows: first, the balcony is generally used as a storage in each apartment unit nowadays. Second, when fire breaks out, many storage items could disturb residents' safe escape by blocking escape route, and easily promote to spread flame vertically in the balcony.

  • 본 연구는 북한 및 비무장지대 등 접근불능지역에 대한 기상에 의한 산불발생예측 알고리즘을 개발하고, 실제 현장과 현업에서 활용할 수 있는 실시간 산불위험예보 체계를 개발하는데 있다. 산불기상위험지수 산출 모형 개발을 위해 자료의 취득과 검증을 위한 현장조사가 불가능하다는 연구적 한계가 존재하므로, 이를 해결하기 위해 MODIS 위성자료를 활용하여 접근이 불가능한 지역의 산불발화지점(fire spot)을 과학적 근거를 가지고 추정하였다. 추출된 산불발화지점을 대상으로 기상청에서 생산된 과거 기상 재분석자료(5㎞ 해상도)를 활용하여 산불발화지점에 대한 기상특성을 추출하여 데이터베이스화 하였다. 접근불능지역의 산불발화지점에서 추출된 기상요소들은 산불발생과 기상요인들과의 통계적 상관성과 산불발생 유무(산불발생 1, 산불 미발생 0)를 추정할 수 있는 로지스틱 회귀모형을 활용하여 실시간 기상변화에 의한 산불기상위험지수(Fire Weather Index, FWI)를 개발하였다. FWI 모형의 예측정확도는 66.6%로 나타나 모형의 적합도는 비교적 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구결과는 남 북한의 산불 방지를 위한 정책 입안자들의 의사결정에 유용하게 활용될 것으로 기대한다.

  • 본 연구는 강원도 고성, 강릉, 삼척의 3개의 산불지에서 딱정벌레군집에 대한 산불강도와 복원방법의 영향을 평가하기 위해서 수행되었다. 4개의 조사지는 산불강도와 복원방법에 의해서 야기된 교란강도(Disturbance Degree, DD)에 따라 각 조사지역에서 선정되었다. 조사지의 교란강도는 미피해지 (DD = 0), 지표화피해지 (DD = 1), 수관화피해지 (DD = 2), 수관화피해 후 인공복원 (DD = 3)로 구분하였다. 함정트랩법으로 채집된 딱정벌레류는 부식자, 식식자와 포식자의 3개 기능군으로 분류되었다. 딱정벌레류의 종수와 풍부도는 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었지만, 비산불지(DD = 0)보다 산불지(DD = 1-3)에서 다소 높았다. 딱정벌레군집은 산불의 강도나 복원방법에 따라 차이가 나타났다. 인공복원과 자연복원 두 방법을 사용한 산불지의 복원은 산불지역에서 딱정벌레군집의 다양성을 증가시키는 것으로 판단된다.

  • The red imported fire ant is considered one of the most notorious invasive species because of its adverse impact on both humans and ecosystems. Public concern regarding red imported fire ants has been increasing, as they have been found seven times in South Korea. Even if red imported fire ants are not yet colonized in South Korea, a proper quarantine plan is necessary to prevent their widespread distribution. As a basis for quarantine planning, we modeled the potential distribution of the red imported fire ant under current climate conditions using six different species distribution models (SDMs) and then selected the random forest (RF) model for modeling the potential distribution under climate change. We acquired occurrence data from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and bioclimatic data from WorldClim. We modeled at the global scale to project the potential distribution under the current climate and then applied models at the local scale to project the potential distribution of the red imported fire ant under climate change. Modeled results successfully represent the current distribution of red imported fire ants. The potential distribution area for red imported fire ants increased to include major harbors and airports in South Korea under the climate change scenario (RCP 8.5). Thus, we are able to provide a potential distribution of red imported fire ant that is necessary to establish a proper quarantine plan for their management to minimize adverse impacts of climate change.

  • To control the spread of surface fire in the rangelands and to check the entry of fire into forest systems from grassland patches, 26 evergreen / succulent species were selected and among them 3 shrubby species such as Berberis tintoria Lesch, Elaeagnus kologa Schlecht and Rhodomyrtus tomentosa Wt. were screened for vegetational fire breaks on the basis of leaf moisture content and some other ecological characters. The fire trail experiments indicate that crossing of fire was checked by the fire belt size of 5 ${\times}$ 1.5m for all the three species. However, due to higher fire retardant capacity, the Ire belt of R. tomentosa was effective in comparison to other two species.

  • this study was focused on the effects of fire on spatial change of vegetation landscape in rural region. Fire types recognized as erown fire, severe surface fire and light surface fire in order of increasing intensity were described in a fire map. GIS was introduced to understand the relationship between fire types and topographic conditions or vegetation types. We also investigated land-use type and regeneration strategies after burning. Fire intensity depended on topographic conditions and vegetation types. Special land-use type in this area was collection of edible mushroom (Tricholoma matsutake). Mushrooms had been obtained from Pinus densiflora forests existing as edaphic climax or managed artificially. Regeneration strategy in burned areas was to make sprouts from burned oak stumps. A higher density and growth rate of sprouts, as compared to those on unburned areas, facilitated vegetation succession from P. densiflora forest to oak forest and consequently led to change of landscape pattern.
