울릉분지와 후포분지의 퇴적물 코어 시료(각 분지에서 하나씩 03GHP-02와 HB13-2)를 대상으 로 광물학적 연구를 수행하였다. 광물조성, 점토광물 성분, 그리고 총 인 성분 및 인의 연속추출법 연 구 결과, 두 시료들은 각 값에 대하여 또한 깊이에 따라 어느 정도 차이가 있음을 보이고 있다. 두 시 료 모두 광물 종에는 차이를 보이지 않았으며 주로 석영, 미사장성, 장석, 방해석, 오팔A, 황철석, 그 리고 점토광물(일라이트, 녹니석, 카올리나이트, 스멕타이트)로 구성되어 있었다. 후포분지의 경우 울 릉분지에 비하여 오팔A 함량이 훨씬 많은 것으로 나타났다. 두 시료 모두, 특히 후포분지 시료에서 기존에 동해에서 보고된 것보다 더 많은 스멕타이트가 동정되었는데 이는 고황하강의 영향과 한반도 의 제3기 지층 암석에 영향을 받은 것으로 사료된다. 울릉분지 시료의 경우 약 0.7-3.5 m 깊이에 오팔 A의 함량 감소 그리고 일라이트 결정도 지수도 낮게 나오며 이는 빙하시대의 추운 기후에 해당된다. 이 깊이의 시료에서는 인의 함량도 상대적으로 낮게 나오고 있다. 이는 이 기간 동안 동해는 해수면의 하강으로 외부 해역과 단절되었고 해협 및 하천을 통한 퇴적물의 유입도 적었기 때문으로 판단된다. 후포분지 시료의 경우 울릉분지에 비하여 깊이에 따른 점토광물 변화와 인의 성분 변화는 크게 관찰 되지 않는다. 이러한 경향은 울릉분지에 비하여 비교적 짧은 기간에 퇴적되었거나 퇴적환경의 변화가 별로 없는 환경에서 퇴적되었기 때문으로 해석된다. 점토광물의 결정도 지수는 울릉분지에 비하여 약 간 높아 퇴적되었을 당시 비교적 온난한 환경이었을 것으로 추측되며 인의 연구 결과로 미루어 볼 때 비록 어느 정도 변화는 있지만 또한 온난한 환경을 지시한다.

This study was performed to assess functions of 10 man-made wetlands in Gunsan City, Jeollabuk Province by means of RAM (Rapid Assessment Method), a technique recommended by Ramsar Convention to appraise wetlands. The assessment of the wetlands value found Gunsan reservoir to have the highest function points while Bukchosan reservoir was estimated to have the lowest function among the wetlands surveyed. By detailed factors of valued 10 man-made wetland, the wetlands were found to function most favorably in terms of vegetational variety and as habitat for wild animals. They need to have more improved functions as habitats for fish and amphibians․reptiles, for preservation and betterment of water quality as well as for supplement of underground water, though. From the assessment of vegetational naturalness of the surveyed reservoirs, Gunsan reservoir turned out to be the most favorable wetland from the viewpoint of vegetation science whereas, however, Anjeong wetland was rated as the lowest in the assessment of vegetational value due to simplicity in its vegetation and lots of dangers in its neighborhood threatening its vegetation and ecology. The assessment of vegetational values for Gunsan, Gongchang, Daewi, Bukchosan, Anjeong, Geumgul, Changan and Chuksan reservoirs showed the same orextremely similar results as RAM function assessment. Geumsan reservoir only, however, featured the opposite result.

According to previous research on evaluating vegetative value of wetland and RAM evaluation targeting the man-made wetland in Gunsan, Gunsan Reservoir and Gongchang Reservoir had been found to have satisfactory results while Anjeong Reservoir and Changan Reservoir had been found to have unsatisfactory results. Aimed at those reservoirs, a vegetation survey was conducted to analyze differences in terms of flora and growth habit. As for the flora, Gunsan Reservoir ranked first with 433 kinds of plants, followed by Gongchang Reservoir with 306, Changan Reservoir with 176 and Anjeong Reservoir with 167. As for specific plant species by floristic region, it was identified that Gunsan Reservoir had 18 species, larger than other wetlands and also, it had more species of naturalized plants than others. This phenomenon is related to various wetland environments resulted from wider area of Gunsan Reservoir. In the case of dormancy form, hemicryptophytes were mainly distributed in Gunsan Reservoir and Gongchang Reservoir while annual plants were mainly distributed in Anjeong Reservoir and Changan Reservoir with heavy disturbance.

A study on vegetation in the Mangyeong River and Dongjin River basins and the surrounding regions of the Saemangeum Reclaimed Land was conducted in a series of efforts to determine the expected ecological changes in the salt marshes, to restore their vegetation, to explore the restoring force of halophyte, to examine the community mechanism and, ultimately, to rehabilitate marshy land vegetation along the lakeside, coastal dune and salt marshes of the Saemangeum Project Area. The findings of the study may be summed up as follows: Five species such as Suaeda japonica, Salicornia herbacea, Atriplex gmelini, Aster tripolium and Suaeda asparagoides that are mostly distributed in the estuary of the Saemangeum Reclaimed Land were analyzed to examine the mechanism of halophyte to maintain their community. To find out the strategies of plants for survival and the cause of forming community structure, a research was made as for appearance ratio of young sapling. From the results of laboratory analysis into dynamics of the saplings of halophyte, it was revealed that the germination ratio of the dry area and submerged area decreases in the order of Suaeda asparagoides, Suaeda japonica, Salicornia herbacea, Atriplex gmelini and Aster tripolium.

The purpose of this study was to research about salt marsh flora and vegetation in the Dongjin-river estuary area where has a project for Sea Man Geum Reclaimed Land so that we can foster foundation on restoration of an ecological habitat, development of applicable plant and establishment of a conservation policy after deceloping the reclaimed land for salt marsh vegetation which has great value ecologically. In conclusion, we was distributed that there are 7 families 21 genera, 25 species, 2 varieties of vascular plant at the Dongjin-river estuary area which have 27 taxa in total and are 0.64% among 4,191 of korean vascular plant. There are also 2 family, 2 genus, 2 species of a naturalized plant which are 1.1% of indicator of a naturalized plant salt marsh vegetation of the downstream are very much affected by the time of inundation, tidal water so that a low degree of salt marsh has frequent flooding by sea water and has a pure group of Suaeda japonica. A Phragmites communis, Carex scabrifolia are distributed mainly around a waterway of salt marsh and Zoysia sinica, Atriplex subcordata, Phragmites communis are living in stock as forming into patch around medium salt marsh. Suaeda asparagoides, Phacelurus latifolius are living around a little high ground and a Phragmites communis is a behind vegetation of Phacelurus latifolius and a part of the Phragmites communis are living along with waterway in a salt marsh as a community. By the Z-M method twelve plant communities were recognized ; Suaeda japonica, Carex scabrifolia, Zoysia sinica, Artemisia scoparia, Phacelurus latifolius, Phragmites communis, Suaeda maritima, Suaeda japonica-Atriplex gmelini, Phragmites communis-Suaeda japonica, Suaeda japonica-Salicornia herbacea, Salicornia herbacea-Suaeda asparagoides and Scirpus planiculmis community. The actual vegetation map was constructed on the grounds of the communities classified and other data.

CCA (Canonical Correspondence Analysis) was used so as to analyze the relation between vegetation and soil environment of Mankyeong river located in Jeollabuk-do. Vegetation survey consulted 1:5,000 topographical map, set up 30 plot and analyzed from June, 2001, to september, 2001. Plant communities of Mankyeong river was investigated by phytosocialogical method. The species composition of plant communities showed high correlation to soil pH, soil organic matter, P2O5, total nitrogen, EC, when they were analyed by CCA. According to the results of CCA hydrophyte communities were distributed in the region that high pH. But the vegetation of disturbed site and wetland plants were distributed in a good nutrients.
