본 연구에서는 습지식물의 유형에 따라 습지의 주요 수 환경에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 부유식물로는 부레옥잠(Eichhornia crassipes)을 침수식물로는 붕어마름(Ceratophyllum demersum)을 인공습지 실험구에 도입한 후 pH, 용존산소, 수온, 산환환원전위, 영양물질 농도 등 주요 수 환경의 변화를 조사하였다. 수 표면에 주로 존재하는 부유식물은 빛이 수체내로 투과하는 것을 막아, 다른 처리구에 비해 수온이 낮게 나타났으며 주 야 모두 상 하층 수온의 차이도 관찰되었다. 오염물 유입 후 모든 실험구에서 용존 산소가 일시적으로 감소하였다가 다시 회복되었는데 특히 수중에서 광합성을 하는 침수식물 처리구에서 주기성을 가지면서 증가하였고 상승폭 또한 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다. pH 또한 침수식물 처리구에서 주기성을 가지면서 변동하는 것으로 나타나 용존산소의 경우와 같이 광합성의 영향임을 보여주었다. 본 연구에서 습지토양의 산환환원전위가 수생식물의 유무나 유형에 따라 영향을 받을 수 있음이 관찰되었으며 이와 관련된 생지화학적 기작에도 영향을 줄 수 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 수체 내 총질소와 총인의 농도는 물만 있는 대조구 <물과 토양이 있는 대조구 < 부유식물 처리구 < 침수식물 처리구의 순으로 감소한 것으로 나타나 식물이 영양물질 제거에도 효과적임을 보여주었다. 부유식물과 침수식물 모두 조류발생을 억제하는 것으로 나타났는데 특히 부유식물의 경우 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.

Urban wetlands provide various ecosystem services and are subject to restoration and creation projects due to their increased value in the context of climate change. However, the vegetation structure of wetlands is sensitive to environmental changes, including artificial disturbances, and requires continuous maintenance. In this study, we conducted a vegetation survey of three wetlands created as part of a project to restore urban degraded natural ecosystems and monitored the quantitative changes in wetland vegetation structure using an unmanned aerial vehicle. The vegetation survey revealed 73 species in Incheon Yeonhui wetland, and the change in vegetation composition based on wetland occurrence frequency was 11.5% on average compared to the 2018 vegetation survey results. The vegetation survey identified 44 species in Busan Igidae wetland, and the proportion of species classified as obligate upland plants was the highest at 48.8% among all plants, while the proportion of naturalized plants accounted for 15.9% of all plants. The open water surface area decreased from 10% in May 2019 to 6.7% in May 2020. Iksan Sorasan wetland was surveyed and 44 species were confirmed, and it was found that the proportion of facultative wetland plant decreased compared to the 2018 vegetation survey results, and the open water surface area increased from 0.4% in May 2019 to 4.1% in May 2020. The results of this study showed that wetlands with low artificial management intensity exhibited a tendency for stabilization of vegetation structure, with a decrease in the proportion of plants with high wetland occurrence frequency and a relatively small number of new species. Wetlands with high artificial management intensity required specific management, as they had a large change in vegetation structure and a partially high possibility of new invasion. We reaffirmed the importance of continuous monitoring of vegetation communities and infrastructure for wetlands considering the function and use of urban wetlands, and restoration stages. These research results suggest the need to establish a sustainable wetland maintenance system through the establishment of long-term maintenance goals and monitoring methods that consider the environmental conditions and vegetation composition of wetlands.

지난 20여년간 대기 중 이산화탄소 농도의 증가가 육상 생태계에 미칠 영향에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되었다. 그러나 전지구적 물질 순환에 중요한 역할을 담당하는 습지 생태계에서 일어나는 반응에 대한 연구는 미흡하다. 본 종설에서는 대기 중 이산화탄소 농도가 증가했을 때 습지의 식생들이 어떠한 반응을 보일 것인지에 대해 알아보고자, 이와 연관하여 발표된 논문들의 결과를 모아 정리하였다. 특히, 습지 식생의 일차생산성, 군집 구조, 증발산량, 식물체의 영양소 등에 미치는 영향을 살펴 보았다. 이산화탄소 증가가 개개 식물의 광합성량을 증가 시키는 것은 많이 관찰 되었으나,이러한 현상이 바로 습지식생의 탄소보유를 증가시키는 것으로 결론 내릴 수 없었다. 그 이유는 고정된 탄소의 지하부로의 전달, 개개 종의 상이한 반응, 종간의 상호작용, 영양소의 부족 등 다른 요인들의 작용 때문이다. 그러나 이산화탄소 농도의 증가는 전반적으로 습지 식물의 증발산량을 감소 시키는 경향을 보였다. 한편, 육상 식물의 반응과 유사하게 많은 습지에서 이산화탄소의 증가가식생의 C/N비를 증가 시키는 것이 일부 종에서 관찰 되었으며,이러한 종에서는 장기적인 유기물분해의 속도가 감소될 수 있음을 암시한다. 그러나 지하부로 유입되는 새로운 광합성 산물들의 동태에 대한 더 많은 정보가 모아져야 정확한 예측이 가능할 것이다.

Constructed wetlands are being used for the removal of nutrients from livestock wastewater. However, natural vegetation typically used in constructed wetlands does not have marketable value. As an alternative, agronomic plants grown under flooded or saturated soil conditions that promote denitrification can be used. Studies on constructed wetlands for swine wastewater were conducted in wetland cells that contained either natural wetland plants or a combination of soybeans and rice for two years with the objective of maximum nitrogen reduction to minimize the amount of land required for terminal treatment. Three systems, of two 3.6 by 33.5 m wetland cells connected in series were used; two systems each contained a different combination of emergent wetland vegetation: rush/bulrush (system 1) and bur-reed/cattail (system 2). The third system contained soybean (Glycine max) in saturated-soil-culture (SSC) in the first cell, and flooded rice (Oryza sativa) in the second cell. Nitrogen (N) loading rates of 3 and $10kg\;ha^{-1}\;day^{-1}$ were used in the first and second years, respectively. These loading rates were obtained by mixing swine lagoon liquid with fresh water before it was applied to the wetland. The nutrient removal efficiency was similar in the rush/bulrush, bur-reed/cattails and agronomic plant systems. Mean mass removal of N was 94 % at the loading rate of $3kg\;N\;ha^{-1}\;day^{-1}$ and decreased to 71% at the higher rate of $10kg\;N\;ha^{-1}\;day^{-1}$. The two years means for above-ground dry matter production for rush/bulrushes and bur-reed/cattails was l2 and $33Mg\;ha^{-1}$, respectively. Flooded rice yield was $4.5Mg\;ha^{-1}$ and soybean grown in saturation culture yielded $2.8Mg\;ha^{-1}$. Additionally, the performance of seven soybean cultivars using SSC in constructed wetlands with swine wastewater as the water source was evaluated for two years, The cultivar Young had the highest yield with 4.0 and $2.8Mg\;ha^{-1}$ in each year, This indicated that production of acceptable soybean yields in constructed wetlands seems feasible with SSC using swine lagoon liquid. Two microcosms studies were established to further investigate the management of constructed wetlands. In the first microcosm experiment, the effects of swine lagoon liquid on the growth of wetland plants at half (about 175 mg/l ammonia) and full strength (about 350 mg/l ammonia) was investigated. It was concluded that wetland plants can grow well in at least half strength lagoon liquid. In the second microcosm experiment, sequencing nitrification-wetland treatments was studied. When nitrified lagoon liquid was added in batch applications ($48kg\;N\;ha^{-1}\;day^{-1}$) to wetland microcosms the nitrogen removal rate was four to five times higher than when non-nitrified lagoon liquid was added. Wetland microcosms with plants were more effective than those with bare soil. These results suggest that vegetated wetlands with nitrification pretreatment are viable treatment systems for removal of large quantities of nitrogen from swine lagoon liquid.

Yongneup wetland protected area, the only high moor in Korea, is a core area to conserve biodiversity. Even though the Yongneup wetland protected area is relatively small, various plant species are distributed in the Yongneup wetland protected area because it includes various habitats showing different environmental gradients. Vascular plants distributed in the Yongneup wetland protected area were identified as a total of 376 taxa that is composed of 73 families, 217 genera, 322 species, 3 subspecies, 44 varieties and 7 forms. For endangered plants designated by the Ministry of Environment, 5 species including Trientalis europaea var. arctica, Lilium dauricum, Halenia corniculata, Lychnis wilfordii and Menyanthes trifoliata were found and 34 taxa were confirmed to be distributed only in the mountainous wetland habitats. Regarding naturalized plants, a total of 11 taxa were distributed, but most of them were distributed in the areas where artificial interference has occurred. And in areas inside the wetlands that are relatively well preserved, 2 species of Bidens frondosa and Erigeron annuus were observed. In this study, the occurrence and distribution of Pseudostellaria baekdusanensis M. Kim, which was recently found in Mt. Baekdu and reported as a new species, were identified in the Yongneup wetland protected area. A wetland is a very vulnerable area to drastic environmental changes and damages to its ecosystem could cause the extinction of rare plant species which are distributed only in the wetlands. Therefore, it is mandatory that current status of the Yongneup wetland protected area is evaluated and actions to prevent rapid environmental changes are taken. Fourteen separate investigations were conducted in 2013 and another four in 2014, to evaluate current status of the Yongneup wetland protected area. These investigations have provided us the basic information for future actions of conservation and restoration.

The performance and characteristics of nutrient removal in wetlands influenced by plant type. We tested a floating plant, Eichhornia crassipes, and a submerged plant, Ceratophyllum demersum, under the same environmental conditions to understand the differences in nutrient uptake by these different plant forms. The total nitrogen and phosphorus in the water decreased in the following order: Water Only < Water + Soil < Floating Plants ${\approx}$ Submerged Plants and Water Only < Water+Soil < Floating Plants < Submerged Plants. Nitrogen and phosphorous concentrations increased in both plants; however, the phosphorous concentration was greater in C. demersum than E. crassipes. The submerged plant exhibited higher phosphorus uptake per unit biomass than the floating plant, but nitrogen uptake did not differ significantly. These results suggest that the presence of soil influences nitrogen and phosphorus removal from water, and that wetland plants play an important role in the assimilation and precipitation of phosphorus. Understanding the differences in contaminant removal performance and characteristics of various plant forms can help in the selection of diverse plants for constructed wetlands to improve water quality and provide ecosystem services such as wildlife habitat and landscape enhancement.

The wetland is a biologically integrated system consisting of water, soil, bacteria, plants, and animals. The wetland helps sustain the ecosystem, control the micro-climate and flood, maintain the ground water level, and provide fishing grounds. From the environmental standpoint, the wetland plays a vital role in reducing water pollution by filtering out sand and other polluted matters, producing oxygen, absorbing chemicals and nutrients. For these reasons, interest in restoring the wetlands has been steadily increasing. Artificial wetland, which is also referred to as created wetland or constructed wetland, is an alternative to natural wetland. Like natural wetland, artificial wetland is environmentally friendly and can effectively lower pollutant levels. The Korea government is actively reviewing the construction of artificial wetlands in mining and water supply areas to decrease nonpoint pollutant sources. This paper attempts to develop a pollutant removal model for the water quality improvement function of artificial wetlands. Artificial wetland can improve the quality of the water; however, depending on the type of water inflow, vegetation and hydrology, its effect can be different.
