  • The oriental stork (Ciconia boyciana) is listed as an endangered species internationally. Its resident population has been extirpated in South Korea since 1971. Its predicted historical habitat included forests (54%), rice paddy fields (28%), grasslands (17%), river-streams (less than 1%), and villages (less than 1%) based on pre-extirpation records in a previous study. However, habitat attributes of recently reintroduced oriental storks since 2015 remain unknown. To examine habitat use patterns and home ranges of recently reintroduced oriental storks, 2015-2017 tracking data of 17 individuals were used to analyze their spatial attributes with a Kernel Density Estimate method and breeding status. Their habitat use patterns from peripheral to core areas were highly associated with increasing rice paddy fields (26%) and decreasing forested areas (55%). Scale-dependent home ranges were 51% smaller for breeders than for non-breeders on average. Our study results highlight that the habitat use pattern of reintroduced oriental storks seems to be comparable to the historical pattern where the used area is likely to be more centralized for breeders than for non-breeders in South Korea. Furthermore, the direction of habitat management for oriental storks should focus on biodiversity improvement of rice paddy fields with chemical free cultivation and irrigation.

  • This work carried out to define the characteristic of Cymbidium kanran habitat at Mt. Halla in Jejudo, Korea from the ecological point of view including geological and topographical features, air and soil temperature, relative humidity, fluctuations of light intensity, habitat vegetation, distribution altitude, area limit, and etc. And another goal of this study consider the conservation counterplan of the cymbidium habitat. Natural distribution areas of the cymbidium were observed more abundantly on the well drained south and east-facing slopes. Soil acidity was ranged from pH 4.1 to 5.3, and electric conductivity was ranged from 176.4 to 299.9 us/cm (average 215.3 us/cm). Base-saturation percentage of the habitat soil was below 50%, bulk density 0.42g/$cm^2$, particle density 2.05g/$cm^2$, humus content 26%, total nitrogen 0.82%, available phosphate 4.2 mg/kg, exchangeable potassium 0.63 Cmol/kg, calcium 0.44 Cmol/kg and magnesium 0.67 Cmol/kg. Annual mean air temperature was $15.4^{\circ}C$, however, air temperature was ranged $11.7{\sim}18.2^{\circ}C$ in spring, $21.2{\sim}23.8^{\circ}C$ in summer, $12.8{\sim}22.0^{\circ}C$ in fall and $5.5{\sim}7.8^{\circ}C$ in winter season. Annual mean soil temperature at depth of 10cm was $13.2^{\circ}C$ And minimum value was recorded $4.7^{\circ}C$ on January, and maximum value $22.5^{\circ}C$ on August. Relative humidity was ranged 90.8~94.7% in summer, 80.8~91.5% in fall and 77.6~84.2% in winter season. Minimum value was 56.5% on December, and maximum value was 100% on July and August. Light intensities were ranged from 400 to 1,800 lux at the greater part of Cymbidium kanran sites in Jejudo. Summer regarded as an lower light intensities was recorded to be range of 500~600 lux; however, autumn and winter were shown higher light regimes ranged from 3,500 to 3,800 lux. Therefore, one must be suprised that the cymbidium grow at the light condition of 6 lux (minimum) or 10,000 lux (maximum). Tree species keeping higher frequency rate and density were Eurya japonica, Camellia japonica, Castanopsis cuspidata, Carpinus laxiflora and Pinus densiflora. Number of trees growing in a 5${\times}$5m quardrat was 35 as an average, and proportion of evergreen versus deciduous was 5:1. Distribution altitude of the orchid habitat was ranged from 120m (low) to 840m (high) from sea level on the south facing slope of Mt. Halla, and was ranged eastern borderline of Gujwaup, Bukjejugun to western boundaries of Jungmundong, Seogwipo city. For the stable conservation of Cymbidium kanran habitat, sunlight regimes must be increased more by means of cutting trees or twigs in the site.

  • 본 연구에서는 우리나라의 갯벌에서 조사대상으로 삼는 멸종위기야생생물이자 해양보호생물, 흰발농게(Austruca lactea)의 전체 개체수 추정 방법을 검토하였다. 일반적으로 무한모집단에 대한 전수조사는 불가능하며 이는 갯벌 내 제한된 서식처에서 개체수를 추정하더라도 마찬가지이다. 표본으로부터 추정되는 서식 밀도 역시 다양한 생물학적, 생태학적 요인들로 인해 높은 변동성을 보인다. 서식처 경계와 면적은 측정 오차뿐만 아니라 생물의 주기성이나 리듬 활동(주야, 간만 주기 등)에 따라서도 달라진다. 따라서 밀도와 서식처 면적으로 산출되는 전체 개체수는 일시적인 것으로 간주되어야 한다. 이 같은 추정은 인천 송도 갯벌에서 3년 간 관찰된 흰발농게(A. lactea)의 평균 밀도와 표준오차 범위 그리고 공간분포의 시공간적 변동성에 근거하면 타당한 것으로 볼 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 로지스틱 회귀모형의 출현 확률인 50%를 기준으로, 서식처 보존 가치의 중요성을 반영하는 잠재적 서식처 면적을 전체 개체수 추정의 대안으로 제시하였다. 보편성을 갖춘 모형으로부터 예측되는 잠재적 서식처는 대상종의 주요 환경조건이 급격하게 변하지 않는다면 시간에 따라 일정한 모습을 유지할 것이다. 특정종을 대상으로 개발되는 모형은 추후 서식처 복원/조성 사업에서도 원하는 생물의 정착을 유도하는데도 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

  • In this study, 12 environmental factors were used to evaluate the potential habitat of Pteromys volans living around some development areas. The analyzed value ranged from 0 to 20.1, and the area with a score of 10 or less was analyzed to have a low possibility of inhabiting Pteromys volans. To verify the analyzed results, a field survey was conducted on areas with 10 or more scores, and traces of habitat of Pteromys volans were confirmed in areas with 16 or more scores. All the areas with an evaluation score of 16 or higher showed high crown density and age class. However, despite the high crown density and age class, the evaluation score in some areas was low owing to the influence of other environmental factors. Therefore, in evaluating Pteromys volans habitats, it is necessary to apply various and complex criteria suitable for field conditions rather than applying uniform and fragmentary environmental factors only.

  • This study was carried out to propose the new procedure to apply Habitat Evaluation Procedure(HEP) of target species using delphi technique, which is suitable to develop endangered species with few researches and ecological knowledges. To identify habitat quality of specific species in development project site, we can develop habitat model and create habitat suitability maps. In this study, we select the Common Kestrel(Falco tinnunculus) as target species in four areas(Paju, Siheung, Ansan, Hwaseong) which is located near the Seoul metropolitan area. The Delphi technique was selected to get the reliable information on the species and habitats requirements. Through the delphi approach, seven habitat components were determined as suitable variables for the Common Kestrel: density($n/km^2$) of small mammals, area($km^2$) of bare-grounds, pasturelands and riparian, and open area(%), spatial distribution and area of croplands, landscape diversity, breeding sites(tall trees, cliffs, high-rise buildings), and the length of shelf. Habitat variables used in this model were classified into two categories: % of suitable land-cover type(open areas, croplands, pasturelands, wetlands, and baregrounds) and the quality of feeding sites(within 250m from edges of woodlands). Habitat quality of the Common Kestrel was assessed against occurred sites derived from the nationwide survey. Predicted habitat suitability map were closely related to the observed sites of the endangered avian species in the study areas. With the habitat suitability map of the Common Kestrel, we assess the environmental impacts with habitat loss after development project in environmental impact assessment.

  • Seed zones were constructed using temperature and precipitation data for the Korean Peninsula and were described as 65 zones. Seed zones for South Korea were reclassified, and they were classified into 34 districts. This study was conducted to define the spread of 5 native seed species (Pinus densiflora, Quercus acutissima, Quercus variabilis, Acer pictum, Carpinus tschonoskii) by linking the seed zones with MaxEnt. The emergence point of native seeds was acquired through the 1:5,000 Forest Type Map and the 4th national natural environment survey data. Based on the MaxEnt result, regions with a habitat probability of 0.5 or more were extracted and overlapped with seed zones to identify the native seed habitat. After analyzing the climate regions with high habitat density, regions with high habitat density of native seeds for each administrative district were identified. In the case of Pinus densiflora, Quercus acutissima, and Quercus variabilis, the Winter minimum temperature(WMT) -9.4~-6.6℃, Annual Heat:Moisture(AH:M) 19~24℃/m was 37%, 43%, and 34%, respectively. occupied the largest area. In Acer pictum, WMT -6.6~-3.8℃ and AH:M 16~19℃/m accounted for 42% of the area, and Carpinus tschonoskii had WMT -3.8~-1.1℃, AH:M <16℃/m Districts accounted for the largest area at 33%. The regions with high density of Pinus densiflora, Quercus acutissima, and Quercus variabilis by administrative district were distributed in high density in Seoul, Southern Gyeonggi-do, Chungcheong-do, and Gyeongsangbuk-do. Acer pictum was distributed in high density in Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do, and Carpinus tschonoskii in Jeju, Jeollanam-do and Gyeongsangnam-do. Through this study, seed zones for each of the 5 native seeds were established, and it is expected to provide basic data for the management of native seeds.

  • As a Biodiversity Management Plan in S. Korea, barley fields are being prepared for the wintering migratory birds. However, the effectiveness of barley fields as a feeding habitat has not been evaluated. In 2003/04 wintering period, we installed exclosures in the barley fields to evaluate the waterfowl grazing effectiveness. Approximately 8,000 waterfowls used the Dongup Reservoir System and utilized the barley fields during the daytime. The white-fronted goose Anser albifrons occupied more than 90% of the all barley-feeding waterfowls. Waterfowls significantly impacted to the shoot density and biomass of barley. In the closed plot, barley shoot density gradually increased to $267{\pm}27/m^2$ in January, 2004. Shoot density in open plots (site 1) declined sharply from.15 December ($189{\pm}18/m^2$) to 5 January 2004 ($25{\pm}11/m^2$). However, barley shoot density in open plots (site 2) was stable in January 2004 because of human disturbances. The changes in barley biomass and shoot density showed similar trend in both open and closed plot. From the exclosure experiment, it was clear that barley fields were important feeding habitat for wintering waterfowls in this area. Further, human disturbances such as noise from traffic and other human activities (farming and hiking) had significant impact on waterfowls' grazing activity. Collectively, winter barley fields were effective for waterfowl feeding, but the location of barley fields should be carefully selected for the maximum utilization of the barley feeding.

  • 하천에서의 수목은 생물다양성 증진의 환경적 기능과 하안을 보호하는 치수적 기능을 가지는 반면, 과도한 수목 발달로 인하여 사주가 고정화되고, 통수단면적이 부족해지는 부정적인 영향을 미치기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 실제 하천 현장조사를 통하여 수목밀도를 산정하고, 수목밀도를 반영한 2차원 수치모의 (Nays2D) 결과를 활용하여 유량과 수목밀도에 따른 하상변동이 생물 서식처 변화에 미치는 영향을 PHABSIM모의를 통하여 추정한다. 2가지 유량 조건 (평균 댐운영 방류량과 2년빈도 방류량)과 4가지 수목 밀도 조건 (2021년 수목 밀도, 밀도를 0으로 조정한 전체 벌채, 밀도를 0.5배 감소한 경우, 밀도를 2배 증가하는 경우)을 이용한 8개의 시나리오를 Nays2D모의를 수행하여 도출한 하상변동 결과를 PHABSIM의 입력자료로 활용하여 피라미를 대상으로 시나리오 별 가중가용면적 (WUA)을 산정하였다. 그 결과 수목이 없는 경우에 하상 변동이 더 현저하게 발생하게 되고, 그에 따라 피라미 서식 환경에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 추정할 수 있었다.

  • 도시화로 인한 서식지의 훼손과 단편화는 전세계적으로 양서류에게 큰 위협이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 도시화가 청개구리의 분포와 수도에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자, 인천와 그 주변에 위치한 18개 논에서 청음으로 청개구리의 수도를 측정하고 서식지 환경과 토지 이용을 조사하였다. 인천과 주변 논에서 청개구리의 수도는 0 - 17마리 / 서식지 또는 0 - 41마리 / ha이었다. 청개구리의 수도는 서식지와 도로와의 거리가 멀어짐에 따라서 서식지의 둘레길이 면적이 켜질수록 증가하였다. 일반적인 예측과는 달리 청개구리의 밀도는 서식지의 크기와 음의 상관을, 주변의 토지이용 강도와는 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 따라서 도시화에 의하여 서식지 면적이 감소하고 주변이 개발됨에 따라서 청개구리리가 좁은 서식지로 집중화될 수 있다고 생각된다.
