수변지역은 하천의 수질 및 수생태계의 보전과 수변경관의 훼손 방지 특히, 안정적인 상수원의 확보를 위하여 다양한 정책과 계획이 수립되어 왔다. 그럼에도 불구하고 상수원보호구역과 수변구역 등 특정지역을 제외한 수변지역은 소규모 개발사업이 무분별하게 입지하게 되면서 하천의 수질 및 경관을 훼손되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 사업유형별로 동 식물, 지형 지질, 경관, 수질 등의 측면에서 예상되는 환경영향을 분석하고, 환경적 영향 정도에 따라 3-12점까지의 환경점수를 부여하여 중점검토사업과 일반검토사업, 간이검토사업 등으로 구분하였다. 마지막으로 사업유형별로 예상되는 환경영향을 회피하거나 최소화할 수 있도록 평가항목별로 평가기준을 마련하여, 수변지역의 소규모 개발사업을 합리적으로 규제하여 친환경적 개발이 이루어질 수 있도록 하였다.

IUCN 생태계 적색목록은 생물다양성의 감소 위험이 높은 생태계를 평가하고 식별하기 위한 글로벌 표준으로, 효과적인 생태계 관리 및 보전 정책 수립에 필요한 과학적 근거를 제공한다. IUCN 생태계 적색목록은 쿤밍-몬트리올 글로벌 생물다양성 프레임워크 목표 A의 핵심지표(A.1)로 지정하였다. 생태계 적색목록 평가는 특정 생태계 유형을 분포의 감소(기준 A), 제한된 분포(기준 B), 환경 황폐화(기준 C), 생물학적 상호작용의 변화(기준 D), 생태계 붕괴 위험의 정량적 추정(기준 E)으로 생태계 붕괴 징후를 판별한다. IUCN 생태계 적색목록은 2014년부터 110개 이상의 국가에서 평가를 진행하였다. 80% 이상이 육상 및 육상-담수 생태계에서 평가를 진행하였으며, 이중 열대림과 아열대림에 위협 받는 생태계가 집중 분포하고 있다. 평가 기준은 공간적 징후(기준 A 및 B)에서 68.8%로 집중되어 있다. 국내에서 생태계 적색목록을 평가를 적용하기 위한 고려사항은 크게 세가지로 나뉜다. 첫째, 국내 적용가 능한 지구 생태계 유형(GET)을 적립해야 한다. 둘째, 생태계 적색목록 범주·기준 중 공간적 징후 평가에서 국내의 소규모로 이루어진 다양한 생태계 유형에 적용 가능한지를 판단해야 한다. 마지막으로 평가를 위한 활용 가능한 시계열(50년) 데이터 수집을 고려해야 한다. 이러한 고려사항을 바탕으로 국내에 IUCN 생태계 적색목록 평가를 적용하면, 우리나라의 독특한 생태계 유형의 현재 상태를 정확하게 파악할 수 있을 것이며, 이는 세계적인 생태계 보전 및 복원 노력에 기여할 것이다.

A three-dimensional ecosystem model is applied to the Suyoung Bay, located at the southeastern part of Korea, to study of the material distribution in the time scale of several tens days. The model has included of the DIN(Dissolved Inorganic Nitrogen), DIP(Dissolved Inorganic Phosphate), phytoplankton, zooplankton and detritus, and also was coupled with the physical processes. The spatial distribution of chlorophyll-a and primary productivity in the model is determined by the physical and chemical-biological parameters. The horizontal distributions of the DIN, DIP and chlorophyll-a are decreased from the coast to the off-shore, though the nutrients show some more complicated pattern than the chlorophyll-a. The nutrient contents in the off-shore are low, and thus a relatively low productivity(chlorophyll-a) are presented. On the whole, the distribution of the results of model are smoother than the observed ones and some small scale variation in the observed data cannot be reproduced by the model due to the resolution limits of model. However, the basic pattern and the quantitavities has been reproduced by the model well.

The objective of this study was to introduce the current status and development strategy for the environmental restoration of stream side in Japan, and to consider the methodology which could be effectively applied to the environmental restoration of stream side in Korea. 1. We should establish a new paradigm of forest conservation and erosion control which can emphasize the restoration of the stream side ecosystem and reduce soil movement in the areas. Also, in the past, the objective of forest conservation and erosion control was to fix soil by constructing permanent structures. The direction of future forest conservation and erosion control needs to be new forest conservation and erosion control technology to prevent large scale soil movement but allow small scale soil movement to conserve sound ecosystem and biotic habitats. 2. In the past, the goal of forest conservation and erosion control planning was to fix the amount of soil movement by constructing permanent facilities. Forest conservation and erosion control planning in the future needs to change the techniques which could prevent soil movement from large scale of soil disasters, but allow soil movement effectively to a small and middle scale's soil movement. Also, it is considered to change erosion control dams from non passing type to passing type. 3. In the point of ecological conservation aspects, we should evaluate the effects of new forest conservation and erosion control methods which are emphasized on the restoration of the stream side ecosystem. Also, forest conservation and erosion control construction projects for restoring stream and river ecosystem should be planned for perfectly restorating their ecosystems by the way of sustainable maintenance and management. 4. The restoration direction of stream and river ecosystems needs to be restoring the diversity of small geographies such as waterway, shoal and puddles rather than flattening stream bed. And the restoration of the stream side ecosystem should provide continuity of the stream side environment which allows desirable biological habitats, and environmentally sound facilities to harmonize with the environment.

This research is to apply suitable natural ecosystem evaluation criteria in order to develop the ecosystem conservation, restoration and ways to build substitute habitats as a compensation plan for damaged soundly natural ecosystems in small-scale projects such as resource recovery facility, filtration, etc. The environmental ecology evaluation i.e. generally based on their actual vegetation, community structure, wildlife, water system survey were measured the primary plans for reflecting unique natural environment level of site. As a result, it is necessary to conserve the land in fallow type of wetland, good conservative condition of deciduous forest, wetlanded watercourse for amphibia and reptiles crossing. However, the plan of filtration plant was destroyed wetland(sound ecosystem), natural forest, asian toad spawning area. According to the result of it schemed to build alternative wetland and spawning area, plan to healthy ecosystem and surface soil transplantation as compensation plan. The alternative wetland and spawning area are not only created a various water levels like depth of water is $0{\sim}30cm,\;30{\sim}60cm$, more than 1.5m but also it leads to asian toad spawning and wildlife inhabitant. Moreover, the ecosystem and surface soil transplantation be applied to use the Quercus acutissima forest resources(114 upper trees, 71 canopy trees, 401 shrubs) and surface soil$(5,072m^3)$ in ecology creation sets.

본 논문에서는 대구광역시의 신천을 대상으로 거대홍수가 도시하천의 하천생태계에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 신천의 경우 외곽의 인공제방이 튼튼하여 거대홍수에도 범람하지 않았으므로, 거대홍수의 영향은 인공제방 내에서만 발생하였다. 신천의 하도 주변을 수변공원화 하기 위하여 하도 내에 콘크리트 보와 고무 보를 설치하고 물을 가두었으나, 거대홍수 시에는 이들 시설이 유수를 방해하는 저항으로 작용하여 주변 저수로의 제방이 붕괴되었다. 이러한 시설이 없는 구간에서는 하상의 기복이 사라져 하천생태계의 서식환경이 단순화 되면서 하천생태계의 다양성이 파괴되었고, 저수로를 범람한 유수는 고수부지의 약한 부분을 파괴하였다. 단순하게 변한 하상이 이후 소규모 홍수를 빈번하게 겪으면서 점차 원상태를 회복하면, 서식환경이 다양화됨으로써 하천생태계도 활기를 띠게 될 것이다.

Nature-based Solutions (NbS) are defined as practical and technical approaches to restoring functioning ecosystems and biodiversity as a means to address socio-environmental challenges and provide human-nature co-benefits. This study reviews NbS-related literature to identify its key characteristics, techniques, and challenges for its application in climate-adaptive water management. The review finds that NbS has been commonly used as an umbrella term incorporating a wide range of existing ecosystem-based approaches such as low-impact development (LID), best management practices (BMP), forest landscape restoration (FLR), and blue-green infrastructure (BGI), rather than being a uniquely-situated practice. Its technical form and operation can vary significantly depending on the spatial scale (small versus large), objective (mitigation, adaptation, naturalization), and problem (water supply, quality, flooding). Commonly cited techniques include green spaces, permeable surfaces, wetlands, infiltration ponds, and riparian buffers in urban sites, while afforestation, floodplain restoration, and reed beds appear common in non- and less-urban settings. There is a greater lack of operational clarity for large-scale NbS than for small-scale NbS in urban areas. NbS can be a powerful tool that enables an integrated and coordinated action embracing not only water management, but also microclimate moderation, ecosystem conservation, and emissions reduction. This study points out the importance of developing decision-making guidelines that can inform practitioners of the selection, operation, and evaluation of NbS for specific sites. The absence of this framework is one of the obstacles to mainstreaming NbS for water management. More case studies are needed for empirical assessment of NbS.

DNA metabarcoding is currently used for large-scale taxonomic identification to understand the community composition in various marine ecosystems. However, before being widely used in this emerging field, this experimental and analytic approach still has several technical challenges to overcome, such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) bias, and lack of well-established metabarcoding markers, a task which is difficult but not impossible to achieve. In this study, we present an adapted PCR-free small-organelles enriched metagenomics (SoEM) method for marine biodiversity assessment. To avoid PCR bias and random artefacts, we extracted target DNA sequences without PCR amplification from marine environmental samples enriched with small organelles including mitochondria and plastids because their genome sequences provide a valuable source of molecular markers for phylogenetic analysis. To experimentally enrich small organelles, we performed subcellular fractionation using modified differential centrifugation for marine environmental DNA samples. To validate our SoEM method, two marine environmental samples from the coastal waters were tested the taxonomic capturing capacity against that of traditional DNA metabarcoding method. Results showed that, regardless of taxonomic levels, at least 3-fold greater numbers of taxa were identified in our SoEM method, compared to those identified by the conventional multi-locus DNA metabarcoding method. The SoEM method is thus effective and accurate for identifying taxonomic diversity and presents a useful alternative approach for evaluating biodiversity in the marine environment.

For better understanding of carbon cycle dynamics of an agro-ecosystem, an accurate assessment of seasonal and daily $CO_2$ flux is essential to understand the relationship between various environmental factors and crop productivity. We developed the automatic sliding canopy chamber (ASCC) system that measured continuous net ecosystem productivity (NEP) over whole growing season under the natural meteorological rhythm. The ASCC was composed of two main parts which were sliding part for measuring NEP, and automatic opening and closing chamber (AOCC) for measuring soil respiration (SR) on the soil surface. The ASCC was developed by using open flow method for measuring soil $CO_2$ efflux. The disturbance of natural meteorological condition was minimized by opening the base frames. In the field test with barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), NEP was calculated at $140mg\;CO_2\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$ on a clear day using continuous data and eliminated the possibility of overestimate about 16% using one hour data during the day time. Unlike other small scale chamber system, installation on cropping-field made it possible to take any modifications which might be caused by natural environmental condition.
