The purpose of this study is to offer raw data on managing naturalized plants by researching the naturalized plants distributed in Gyeongju Campus, Dongguk University. The results are as follows. The numbers of naturalized plants were summarized as 47 taxa; 13 families, 37 genera, 45 species and 2 varieties. In an analysis of life forms, there were 1 taxa of megaphanerophytes, 5 taxa of chamaiphytes, 7 taxa of hemicryptophytes, 1 taxa of geophytes and 33 taxa of therophytes. The following summarizes the attributes of the naturalized plants. Most of the plants commonly originated from North America and Europe. The 5 naturalized degree that was widely distributed and had many individual was the most common. Until 1921, after the opening of 1 period was the most common in the introduced period. There were 4 taxa of invasive alien plants; Rumex acetocella, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Aster pilosus and Lactuca sativa. As regards the management of invasive alien plants, because Rumex acetocella, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, Aster pilosus and Lactuca sativa have a negative impact on the ecosystem, they need to be efficiently controlled.

This study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of waterfowls communities by point-count methods from December 2007 to February 2008 at seven lagoons located in eastern sea shores. We mapped the distribution pattern of waterfowls at the grid size of 30 × 30 meters and compared the area and patton’s diversity index with the characteristics of waterfowls’ communities. We suggest the two factors like density of Greater Scaup and the ratio of dabbling and diving ducks as characteristics of waterfowls at lagoons. Three lagoons like Gwangpo, Maeho and Hyangho showed the low values of above two factors. Patton’s index was a good predictor of species richness of waterfowls and size and perimeter length of lagoon was a good predictor of species richness.

We developed the “Nest Finder System” to detect the breeding ecology of cavity nesters. Nest Finder System is composed of three parts, camera, transfer and recorder parts. In camera part, we utilized three types like pin camera, CCTV camera and endoscope with CMOS lens. Electricity and information was transferred with cable lines, and the information were directly recorded into sony digital recorder (GV-HD 700) or hard disk. To survey the breeding status of cavity nester, we disassembled the cone lens (TVC-MN4428C) applicable to enter the natural tree hole ranging no less than 30 mm. To support the camera and transfer part reaching at the hole located about 15m height, we used a couples of carbon poles in size of 1.8m, and its slender ending part was designed to fit each other. Nest Finder System can be applied to monitor breeding status of forest wildlife including cavity nesters, canopy nesters and aquatics. We discussed the potential problem in applying the equipment and analyzing the obtained data. Nest Finder System enable us to monitor the inner part of nest located at the upper part of trees not only coniferous and deciduous forests, and it can be applied to monitor the breeding ecology of aquatic organism.

Unlike the general downtown parks, the new town landscaping work has significant residents’opinion with enormous influence on the work process. Therefore, mutual understanding with residents is very important in New Town landscape construction. To realize a role of residents, this study analyzed the types and characteristics of residents for landscape planting targeting Gwanggyo New Town at South Korea. 142 opinions of residents received officially to the project executor were used for research materials to the subject of landscape planting. As a result of analysis, residents' opinions were received in summer and spring owing to the nature of plant materials. Regarding the respondents, males are much more than females. In the opinion, there are most of ‘expressing complaints and demanding improvements’ rather than ‘contact and information request’ or ‘new proposals and recommendations’. As a result of typifying them after analyzing the contents of the opinions, 10 types were drawn. The demand for ‘dead wood processing’ was most, next, there are the demand for additional planting, that for slope vegetation, that for riverbed vegetation revetment loss, etc. The researcher looked into the opinions of residents in depth by analyzing the association between the number of opinions and the contents of opinions. Those who express the 1st opinion pointed out ‘vegetation revetment loss’ a lot but those who have the 6th-10th opinion mentioned ‘dead wood processing’ a lot so there was a significant difference finally.

This paper is a study on the visitor’s motivation and satisfaction to invigorate the Garden Expo that is spreading gradually since it was first held in 2010. 209 visitors of the Gyeonggi Garden Culture Expo, which was held in Gyeonggido Anseong, 2015, were surveyed. As the result of the survey, it was possible to find out that the visitors’ demographical/social economical backgrounds were so diverse the interest of Garden culture was highly popular. As the result of measuring the motivations using Maslow’s needs, the safety needs were the biggest but all 5 needs were shown relatively balanced. Women than men, and older generations than the younger generations showed higher self-actualization needs for creating a garden. The influence of the motivation on satisfaction was the highest in safety needs and self-esteem needs. Thus, it is able to see that in rest-oriented gardens decorated with plants, visitors feel safe and pleasant, while having pride that they are leading high level cultural life rather than mere entertainment. This result indicates the public's interests on what are not only high but also quite positive in Korean society, where Garden Expos are just starting out.
