This study was established to build and suggest the Ecological Performance Standards for replaced wetlands as the mitigation strategies for the construction projects. The request performance and assessment factors and standards were derived by bibliographic review and verified by the field survey for the reference wetlands. And the weights for each factor were derived by AHP(Analytical Hierarchy Process) method. The results are as follows : 1) Assessment factors were induced by in-depth research of many wetland assessment models and benchmarks evaluated ecological functions. This study proposed final 12 assessment factors through ecological specialist and experts interviews added with literature analysis. 2) 10 natural wetlands were selected as Reference Wetlands as the measure to propose assessment factors and assessment criteria. Those reference wetlands are well-conserved inland natural wetlands classified to the one having worthy to conserve (grade "high") according to RAM(Rapid Assessment Method). Reference wetlands chosen by the study are Parksilji, Jeongyangji, Mulkubi, Bawineupkubi, Jilnalneup, Jinchonneup, Doomoso, Haepyung wetland, Whangjeong wetland, and Whapo wetland. The research developed assessment criteria for the performance assessment factors based on several explorations of the reference wetlands. 3) "Requiring performance" of replaced wetlands is defined as "to carry out similar or same ecological functions provided by natural wetlands", in overall. The detailed requiring performances are as follows; ${\bullet}$ to play a role of wildlife habitats ${\bullet}$ to have biological diversity ${\bullet}$ to connect with other ecosystems ${\bullet}$ to provide water environment to perform good ecological functions 4) The assessment factors for required performance are categorized by wildlife habitat function, biological diversity, connectivity of adjacent ecosystem, and water environment. Wildlife habitat category is consisted of wildlife habitat creation, size of replacement wetland, and site suitability. Biological diversity category contains the number of plant species, the number of wildlife species, and number of protected species as the sub-factors. Connectivity of adjacent ecosystem is comprised of wildlife corridor, green network and distance from other ecosystem. Finally, water environment make up with water quality, depth of water body, and shape of waterfront. 5) Finally, every assessment factors were verified and weighted by the AHP methods and the final standards were proposed. The weights of factors of requiring performance suggested as habitat (0.280), connectivity (0.261), diversity (0.260), hydraulic environment (0.199). And those of detailed sub-factors are site suitability (0.118), protected species (0.096), distance to neighbor ecosystem (0.093), habitat creating (0.091), green corridor (0.090) etc.

Recent years, nationwide projects for ecological restoration are implemented with emerging issues on the stream ecosystem. In order to enhance effectiveness of the ecosystem restoration and reduce negative impact, the appraisal of effectiveness through the follow-up monitoring and the adaptive management process are executed in consecutive phase. In this study, planning phase, monitoring and adaptive management in Hakui stream which is part of An Yang stream restoration project is introduced as representative ongoing case of effective adaptive management. The aim of this study is to verify the adaptive management process and suggest direction of effective restoration. Restoration project of Hakui stream resulted in increasing number and diversity of species (vegetation, fish, bird, invertbrates, amphibian and reptilia) according to monitoring from 2004 to 2013, and enhancing natural river landscape by evaluation of river naturalness among 2001(before restoration), 2007 (after), 2015 (recent). However, excessive vegetation expansion or sediment deposition on channel over time caused unexpected results such as terrestrialization or degradation of habitats. Adaptive management action such as removing disturbance species (Humulus japonicus)(2007), coppicing willow (2007), release of march snail (2007), creation of wetland (2014) were implemented based on monitoring results. And then appraisal of management action was discussed.

최근들어 세계환경의 화두는 습지와 더불어 논습지 그리고 습지의 생태계서비스 기능에 집중 조명되고 있지만, 논습지의 생태계서비스를 평가 할 수 있는 연구체계가 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 기존의 습지평가체계를 논습지에 적용하여 습지로서 논의 가치를 평가해보는 동시에 논습지 중심의 평가체계를 구축하는 기초자료로 활용하고자 연구를 진행하였다. 연구 대상지는 고도와 토양을 기준으로 16곳을 선정하였다. 습지평가 결과 연구대상지 16곳은 총점 110점~118점, 평균 2.17~2.50으로 선행연구 사례지인 호수형습지, 소택형습지, 하천형습지와 비교해도 습지로서 가치가 인정되었다고 할 수 있다. 하지만 고도, 토성에 따라서는 평가결과의 차이는 없었으며, 보전가치는 모두 같게 나타났다. Pearson 상관분석을 통해 보전가치에 가장 밀접하게 작용하는 요인을 찾아본 결과, 면적이 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 기존의 습지평가체계로 논습지에 적용하기에는 한계가 있는 것으로 사료되어 논습지 평가를 위해서는 재배유형, 지형적 특성, 식생특성, 생육환경, 생물다양성 등의 다양한 후속 연구를 통해 습지평가체계를 보완할 필요가 있는 것으로 판단하였다.

Background: The creation of the National Institute of Ecology began as a national alternative project to preserve mudflats instead of constructing the industrial complexes by reclamation, and achieve regional development. On the other hand, at the national level, the research institute for ecology was needed to cope with the worsening conditions for maintaining biodiversity due to accelerated climate change such as global warming and increased demand for development. In order to meet these needs, the National Institute of Ecology has the following objectives: (1) carries out studies for ecosystem change due to climate change and biodiversity conservation, (2) performs ecological education to the public through exhibition of various ecosystem models, and (3) promotes regional development through the ecological industry. Furthermore, to achieve these objectives, the National Institute of Ecology thoroughly followed the basic principles of ecology, especially restoration ecology, in the process of its construction. We introduce the principles and cases of ecological restoration applied in the process. Results: We minimized the impact on the ecosystem in order to harmonize with the surrounding environment in all the processes of construction. We pursued passive restoration following the principle of ecological restoration as a process of assisting the recovery of an ecosystem degraded for all the space except in land where artificial facilities were introduced. Reference information was applied thoroughly in the process of active restoration to create biome around the world, Korean peninsula forests, and wetland ecosystems. In order to realize true restoration, we pursued the ecological restoration in a landscape level as the follows. We moved the local road 6 and high-voltage power lines to underground to ensure ecological connectivity within the National Institute of Ecology campus. To enhance ecological diversity, we introduced perch poles and islands as well as floating leaved, emerged, wetland, and riparian plants in wetlands and mantle communities around the forests of the Korean Peninsula in the terrestrial ecosystem. Furthermore, in order to make the public aware of the importance of the intact nature, the low-lying landscape elements, which have disappeared due to excessive land use in most areas of Korea, was created by imitating demilitarized zone (DMZ) landscape that has these landscape elements. Conclusions: The National Institute of Ecology was created in an eco-friendly way by thoroughly reflecting the principles of ecology to suit its status and thus the impact on the existing ecosystem was minimized. This concept was also designed to be reflected in the process of operation. The results have become real, and a result of analysis on carbon budget analysis is approaching the carbon neutrality.

Space-based Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) observations have been widely and successfully applied to acquire invaluable temporal and spatial information on wetlands, which are unique environments and regarded as important ecosystems. One of the best studied wetland area is Everglades, which is located in southern Florida, USA. As a World Heritage Site, the Everglades is the largest natural and subtropical wilderness in the United States. The Everglades wetlands have been threatened by anthropogenic activities such as urban expansion and agricultural development, as well as by natural processes, as sea level changes due to climate change. In order to conserve this unique wetland environment, various restoration plans have been implemented. In this review paper, we summarize the main studies using space-based SAR observations for monitoring the Everglades. The paper is composed of the following two sections: (1) review of backscattered amplitude analysis and observations, and (2) review of interferometric SAR (InSAR) analysis and applications. This study also provides an overview of a wetland InSAR technique and space-based SAR sensors. The goal of this review paper is to provide a comprehensive summary of space-based SAR monitoring of wetlands, using the Everglades wetlands as a case study.

This research was completed to provide fundamental data regarding the guidelines to installing and managing utility facilities & structures in wetland protected area to advance the functions and sustainable use of ecology services by preserving the ecology within wetland protected area. There were 5 on-site researching areas that were used as the main subject with these areas chosen and considered from 21 inland wetlands that have been designated and are being managed from the Ministry of Environment and by their designated dates as a wetland protected area. The utility facilities in these wetland areas were categorized by their types and a detailed on-site investigation was proceeded with investigation items chosen whereas these facilities are working by their roles from their location, size, used materials, types, information contents and etc., The results showed that regarding informational structures, several locations of information boards were distanced from the main exploring routes which did not consider the visitor's eye level which had their readability dropped and by sunlight, time lapse and water penetration, many information boards were damaged or corrupted so that it was hard to confirm the information noticed or understanding an image. Insufficient observation and educational structures were installed that considered the ecological characteristics of wild animals and their living conditions. Regarding convenience facilities, there were parking lots that were installed on the fore-land and to decrease non-point solution sources, some parking lots needed to be located in protected lowlands while some facilities' shape and colors did not harmonize with their natural surroundings, creating a sense of awareness, which will need some more consideration. As for safety facilities, they were very insufficient compared to other facilities. This means that additional safety structures are needed so that related personnel can be aware of where a visitor is located when an accident occurs. Protectional facilities strongly needed new structures and a management system to cut off entrances and do surveillance so that visitors do not go into areas outside of the managed areas and bring damages to restricted locations. Research labs needed to expand the use of automatic weather systems and water gauge equipments to build fundamental data regarding floodgates that are intimated to the forming of wetlands. Sensor cameras and other types of monitoring systems are needed to monitor the majority types of animals living in the wetlands as well.

본 연구는 최상위 포식자로 멸종위기종인 황새의 서식처 복원지역에 필요한 소택지 조성을 위해 선행연구의 적지선정모형과 습지평가기준을 근거해 소택지 적지선정 평가항목을 설정하고 이를 적용하여 적지선정을 수행하였다. 연구대상지는 황새공원이 포함되는 예산군 대리의 입구로부터 수치표고모델(DEM)을 이용한 유역분석을 실시하여 $5,884,800m^2$의 범위를 설정하였다. 수체, 토양, 경사, 토지이용, 인간간섭, 야생동물통로, 수자원종류 등 평가항목별로 GIS 프로그램을 이용하여 주제도를 작성하였다. 작성된 7항목의 주제도를 중첩하여 평가결과가 높게 나타난 지점을 중심으로 복원적지를 선정하였다. 도면중첩을 실시한 결과 21점 만점에 19~20점 지역은 면적이 작아 조성적지를 18점 이상의 지점으로 확대하여 총 8개 조성적지를 선정하였다. 선정된 대상지는 대부분 점토질로 이루어져 표토를 활용 할 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 지표수와 연결성 또한 높게 평가되어 용수 공급의 문제는 없을 것으로 판단하였다. 양호한 토지이용과 완만한 경사를 보여 조성이 용이할 것으로 판단되며, 주위 생태계와의 연결성 또한 양호하여 야생동물의 이동이 용이 할 것으로 사료된다. 습지의 이용 가능한 수원을 파악하고 개선방안을 도출하고자 수질분석을 실시한 결과 살목지 및 보강지로 유입되어 흘러가는 수체의 수질환경이 대체로 양호하지만, 지하수 용출 후 체류된 수체의 수질이 좋지 않아 향후 습지의 수문이 정체되지 않도록 인근 지표수의 연결이 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구의 한계로는 연구대상지의 물리환경을 중심으로 분석한 결과를 가지고 소택지의 조성 적지를 선정한 것으로, 향후 생물환경의 조사를 추가하여 생물다양성의 증진효과를 규명할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.
