The wetland ecosystem has a key role in climate change and can capture and store carbon long-term as blue carbon. Currently, the Republic of Korea and People's Republic of China are preparing for the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Phase II inscription, and cross-border cooperation among the two Koreas and the People's Republic of China is expected in term of the coastal wetland in the Yellow Sea region. However, there is a lack of research on the importance of coastal wetland in the Yellow Sea region for migratory bird habitats, roosting sites, feeding grounds, and stop-over sites. Thus, this study focused on the coastal wetland of the Yellow Sea region, including the southwestern coastal wetlands in the Republic of Korea, the Yancheng National Nature Reserve in the People's Republic of China designated as UNESCO World Natural Heritage, and the Mundok Migratory Bird Reserve in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, which is listed on the Tentative List. The cooperation for ecosystem conservation between the two Koreas and China was analyzed. The importance of coastal wetlands in the Yellow Sea region as habitats for migratory birds, roosting sites, feeding grounds, and stop-over sites, significant characteristics of Yellow Sea coastal wetlands, and conditions for cooperation among three countries, were analyzed. The direction of ecosystem conservation cooperation for coastal wetlands in the Yellow Sea region in this study will be developed into Pan-Yellow Sea conservation. 기후변화 위기상황에서 습지 생태계의 기후변화 완화 및 적응 기능이 더욱 강조되고 있으며, 탄소흡수원으로서 갯벌의 생태계 서비스가 중요시되고 있다. 현재 황해지역 갯벌 중 남한과 중국의 경우 UNESCO 세계자연유산 2단계 등재를 위한 준비를 하고 있으며, 향후 황해지역 갯벌을 통한 남북한 및 중국의 초국경협력이 기대되는 상황이다. 그러나 이동성 조류 서식지, 휴식지, 중간기착지로서 황해지역 갯벌의 중요성과 보전, 관리, 남북한 및 중국의 협력체계에관한 연구는 부족한 상황이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 UNESCO 세계자연유산으로 등재된 남한의 서남해안 갯벌과 중국의 옌청자연보호구, 잠정목록에 등재된 북한의 문덕 습지보호구를 포함한 황해지역 갯벌을 중심으로 남북한 및 중국의 생태계 보전 협력 여건을 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 이동성 조류 서식지, 휴식지, 중간기착지로서 황해지역 갯벌의 중요성과 황해 연안습지 주요 특징, 북한과의 협력여건 등을 분석하여 황해 연안습지의 초국경보전지역 등재를 위한 생태계 보전 협력 방향을 제시하였다.

Korean society has been recently promoting the restoration of coastal wetlands. These efforts might become the basis of a policy framework that compensates for the limitations of a regulation-oriented policy such as the designation of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). The shift in government policy could contribute to strengthening the socioeconomic infrastructure of coastal development through the accumulation of ecological capital. Although our scientific efforts and social demands in regard to the ecological restoration of the coastal wetlands have increased during the past years, the bases for restoration in Korea requires that scientific, technological, financial, social and legal aspects be enhanced. The present study re-examined the concept and attitudes behind coastal wetland restoration in the light of changing circumstances in Korea. Herein, we first defined coastal wetland restoration as “An act of recovering the functions of the ecosystem of coastal wetlands to a state that resembles conditions prior to being damaged.” Next, this study discussed the limitations and future directions of such restoration efforts based on the descriptive analyses of recent restoration practices from social, economic, and technological aspects. Finally, we suggest future policy directions regarding coastal wetland restoration on the basis of a PFST (Policy, Financial, Social, and Technological) analysis; 1) re-arranging legal mechanisms, 2) setting multidimensional restoration goals, 3) establishing a multi-discipline- and convergence based R&D system, 4) linking spatial management and local development to the restoration, 5) building restoration governance at the local level, 6) implementing an ecosystem service payment system, and 7) applying test-bed projects in accordance with proper directions.

Korea is peninsular country surrounding three coastal areas and huge tidal flat ecosystems in the world level. However, there were few research reports on tidal flat ecosystem rather than that of other ecosystems in Korea. It is followed reclamation and devastation of tidal flat ecosystem and coastal landscape owing to the results of short-term researches and environmental policy. As the world class ecosystem, the presence of Korean tidal flat ecosystem is meaningful in view of biological diversity as well as geomorphological point of tidal wetland. They have still very valuable scientific items. Especially, diverse culture in coastal areas has been strongly depended on tidal flat ecosystem, and they are supporting background for developing marine culture as well as environmental history. Since 1990, new consciousness for ecosystem conservation of tidal wetland ecosystem was reflected in the environmental policy, but political identity on wetland ecosystem (including tidal flat) in Korea is not established yet. Because there are many overlapping and contact points in the viewpoints of legislative, administrative, sociological, environmental and cultural cases, the conflicting problems on development and preservation are always occurring in tidal flat areas. Designating UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in Sinan Dadohae is the one of meaningful ways to sustainable uses of tidal flat ecosystem.

Coastal wetlands are among the most productive biomes in the Earth. The economic values include the direct use of a coastal wetland`s ecosystem services, such as food, raw materials, recreation, and tourism. Other values comprise the indirect use of a coastal wetland`s ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration, waste-water treatment, and erosion prevention. In particular, Suncheon Bay is recently attracting attention as the most successful case of the preservation and restoration. This study applies Travel Cost Method (TCM) to estimate the economic value by drawing the demand curve for trips to Suncheon Bay. The TCM is an approach used for economic valuation of non-market goods and services. Based on the results of TCM, this study shows that the economic benefit from recreational uses of the site adds up to .174.7 billion per year. It is also significant in the sense that monetary information is suggested to help local policy makers evaluate the realistic values of coastal wetlands.

Coastal dune wetland has an important ecological implication in that it could be closely related to the coastal dune ecosystem by providing various ecological habitats as well as ecological corridor. This paper aims to investigate the hydrological characteristics and aquatic biota of Mokgimiyeonmot (pond), coastal dune wetland in Gulupdo (island). Mokgimiyeonmot located in the lowland dune flat areas has six months long hydro period a year and can be categorized into wet dune slack type coastal dune wetland. As a result of this study, two species of freshwater fishes, two species of amphibia, and 35 species of benthic macro-invertebrates are recognized. Talitridae sp. belonging to Amphipoda also recognized in this survey for the first time from Korea. The results of this study are expected to be basic data necessary to understand the aquatic ecosystems and manage the ecological function of coastal dune field.

대한민국 서해안의 4개 갯벌에 대한 변화 탐지를 위해 다중분광 고해상도 다목적 위성인 KOMPSAT 시리즈 영상 자료를 분석하였다. 무감독 분 류법을 이용하여 고해상도 위성 이미지에서 생성된 토지이용 및 토피피복 지도의 활용성과 연안 습지 변화의 경향을 결정할 때 시간 궤적 분석과 통합된 변화 탐지 방법론을 평가했다. 자연 현상과 인위적 활동에 대한 토지이용 및 토지피복 변화 분석을 통해 갯벌면적을 추출하고, 양질의 주제 지도를 제공하기 위한 고해상도 KOMPSAT 데이터의 실질적인 적용 가능성을 확인하였다. 경기도와 전라북도의 갯벌 지역은 조석 차에 영향으로 면적 변화가 나타난 것으로 추정되었으며, 새만금 지역의 갯벌지역은 대규모 매립 및 도시화로 인한 인위적 활동에 따른 것으로 나타났다. 또한 전 라남도 증도 갯벌지역의 경우 연안습지보호지역으로 지정되어 연안 갯벌 보전에 대한 사회적, 환경적 정책의 효과를 확인하였다. 따라서 고해상도 KOMPSAT를 이용한 습지변화 모니터링은 연안환경 관리 및 정책결정을 위해서 유용할 것으로 기대된다. A series of multispectral high-resolution Korean Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT) images were analyzed to detect the geographical changes in four different tidal flats in the west coast of South Korea. The method of unsupervised classification was used to generate a series of land use/land cover (LULC) maps from the satellite images, which were used as the input of the temporal trajectory analysis to detect the temporal change of coastal wetlands and its association with natural and anthropogenic activities. The accurately classified LULC maps extracted from the KOMPSAT images indicate that these multispectral high-resolution satellite data is highly applicable to generate good quality thematic maps for extracting wetlands. The result of the trajectory analysis showed that, while the tidal flat area of Gyeonggi and Jeollabuk provinces was estimated to have changed due to tidal effects, the reductive trajectory of the wetland areas belonging to the Saemangeum province was caused by a high degree of human-induced activities including large reclamation and urbanization. The conservation of the Jeungdo Wetland Protected Area in Jeollanam province revealed that the social and environmental policies can effectively protect coastal wetlands from degradation. Therefore, monitoring for wetland change using high resolution KOMPSAT is expected to be useful to coastal environment management and policy making.

본 연구는 제 3차 전국자연환경조사 결과를 토대로 흰물떼새(Charadrius alexandrinus)의 시·공간적 분포현황과 흰물떼새가 선호하는 서식지 유형을 분석하였다. 2006년부터 2012년까지 흰물떼새는 전국 824 도엽 중 97개 도엽(약 11.8%)에서 기록되었고 주로 서해안과 남해안의 해안선을 따라 집중 분포하였다. 또한, 일부 동해안과 내륙의 주요 강(한강, 금강, 낙동강, 섬진강, 영산강) 주변, 제주도의 동쪽과 서쪽 해안선 일대와 대청도에서 관찰되었다. 주요관찰된 시기는 봄철 이동시기와 번식기, 가을철 이동시기이며 환경부 중분류 토지피복 분석 결과 수역과 습지의 넓이가 흰물떼새의 서식에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 환경부 세분류 토지피복의 연안습지 면적 분석 결과 흰물떼새가 관찰된도엽의 대부분(약 90%)에는 연안습지가 형성되어 있었고, 연안습지의 형성여부가 흰물떼새의 분포에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 흰물떼새는 서식지의 변화에 따라 번식지를 이동하며, 서식지 환경변화에 민감한것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 흰물떼새는 생물지표 기준으로서 연안습지 지역의 서식지 환경의 변화와 관련이 있고 시기별 개체수 산정이 가능하기 때문에 우리나라 조간대 연안의 생태적 가치를 판단하는 지표종으로 활용할 만한가치가 있는 것으로 판단된다. In this study we analyzed the spatial and temporal distribution and preferred habitat type of the Kentish plover (Charadrius alexandrinus) based on the 3rd National Ecosystem Survey. Kentish plovers were observed in 97 maps out of a total 842 maps (11.8%) between 2006 and 2012, mainly along the western and southern coasts of Korea. They were also observed in the eastern coast of Korea, inland rivers (Han, Geum, Nakdong, Seomjin, and Yongsan River), the western and eastern coast of Jeju island, and Daecheong Island in the Yellow Sea. The observations were mainly made during the spring breeding season and migration seasons in spring and autumn. The occurrence of kentish plovers was positively influenced by the area of water and wetland according to the middle classification level of land cover type analysis and the area of coastal wetlands in the detailed classification level of land cover types. Most (90%) of the kentish plovers recorded maps had coastal wetlands. Kentish plovers were known to be susceptible to change of habitat. As the occurrence of kentish plovers could be associated with the habitat-change of coastal wetlands and it is possible to estimate the number of individuals, it is recommended that kentish plovers be used as a bioindicator species for the ecological assessment of ecosystem in intertidal zones.

Sentinel-2 위성영상과 SRTM DEM을 활용한 연안습지 탐지: 서해안 곰소만을 사례로

정윤재 ( Yun-jae Choung ),김경섭 ( Kyoung-seop Kim ),박인선 ( Insun Park ) 한국지리정보학회 2021 한국지리정보학회지 Vol.24 No.2

기존 연구에서는 연안습지를 탐지하기 위해 위성/항공 영상의 다중분광 밴드로부터 산출한 식생지수 또는 토지피복도를 활용하였으나, 단일 센서만을 활용할 경우 토지피복정보와 지형정보를 동시에 고려하는 것에 한계가 있어 높은 정확도의 연안습지 탐지 및 대규모 연안습지 관리 업무 수행에 많은 지장을 초래하였다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 서해안 곰소만 지역을 촬영한 Sentinel-2 위성영상의 다중분광 밴드와 디지털 지형 모델인 SRTM(Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) DEM(Digital Elevation Model)을 사용하여 서해안 곰소만의 대규모 연안습지를 다음의 과정을 통해 탐지하였다. 우선 Sentinel-2 위성영상의 Green 및 근적외선 밴드를 활용하여 정규수분지수 영상을 제작하였다. 그리고 정규수분지수 영상에서 픽셀의 밝기값 0.2를 임계치로 설정하여 물과 육지를 구분하는 이진화 영상을 제작하였으며, SRTM DEM에서 픽셀의 밝기값 0을 임계치로 설정하여 해수면 아래와 해수면 위를 구분하는 이진화 영상을 제작하였다. 최종적으로는 두 장의 이진화 영상에 중첩 분석을 적용하여 이진화 영상 기반 연안습지 지도를 제작하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 기술을 활용하여 제작한 이진화 영상 기반 연안습지 지도의 정확도는 94%로서 매우 높은 결과를 보여주었으며, 연안습지가 아닌 내륙습지, 산지습지 등은 탐지되지 않아서 연안습지 관리 업무에 매우 효과적으로 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다. In previous research, the coastal wetlands were detected by using the vegetation indices or land cover classification maps derived from the multispectral bands of the satellite or aerial imagery, and this approach caused the various limitations for detecting the coastal wetlands with high accuracy due to the difficulty of acquiring both land cover and topographic information by using the single remote sensing data. This research suggested the efficient methodology for detecting the coastal wetlands using the sentinel-2 satellite image and SRTM(Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) DEM (Digital Elevation Model) acquired in Gomsoman Bay, west coasts of South Korea through the following steps. First, the NDWI(Normalized Difference Water Index) image was generated using the green and near-infrared bands of the given Sentinel-2 satellite image. Then, the binary image that separating lands and waters was generated from the NDWI image based on the pixel intensity value 0.2 as the threshold and the other binary image that separating the upper sea level areas and the under sea level areas was generated from the SRTM DEM based on the pixel intensity value 0 as the threshold. Finally, the coastal wetland map was generated by overlaying analysis of these binary images. The generated coastal wetland map had the 94% overall accuracy. In addition, the other types of wetlands such as inland wetlands or mountain wetlands were not detected in the generated coastal wetland map, which means that the generated coastal wetland map can be used for the coastal wetland management tasks.

대호 간척지내 농지와 농업자원에 대한 환경적으로 건전하고 지속가능한 개발모델

김귀곤 서울대학교 농업개발연구소 2000 농업생명과학연구 Vol.4 No.-

The coastal areas provide highly valuable wetlands and habitats for fish and wildlife. However, many coastal areas with wildlife and beautiful landscapes have been destroyed by urbanization and other development projects. To effectively address this problem, the damage done to the coastal ecosystem and ways to resolve it need to be identified. Then, through a partnership, such solutions need to be put into action. The outcome of such efforts would be not only to fix the problem, but also to change peoples' behavior into making ecologically sound decisions. The objective of this study was to utilize a reservoir and agricultural land, which are the product of a sea dyke construction, to develop a healthy coastal eco-park that would benefit both wildlife and people. Attempts were made to achieve this objective by: restoring as well as conserving habitats in the study area, improving the functions of existing habitats, and creating new habitats through a cooperative partnership with the local community. Through implementing suggestions for eco-parks, environment-friendly agriculture techniques, eco-tourism, eco-villages, and environmental awareness programs, the outcome of this study is expected to improve the structure and functions of the Korean western coast ecosystem by developing a coastal wetland in a 801 hectare-reclaimed agricultural land designated as the Environmental Agriculture Pilot Area. The biggest strength of this study is that it introduced a restoration ecology concept in the use of reclaimed tideland and produced and output similar to a detailed master plan. It will have significant implications for fishermen and government officials as well as for people involved in managing coastal areas. In this context, this study may contribute toward current discussions on the ecological conservation and management of coastal areas.
