Experimental Forests of the Korea Forest Research Institute Experimental Forests? Korea Forest Research Institute News 14-6 Experimental Forests of The Korea Forest Research Institute Experimental Forests? An Experimental Forest(EF), administered by the Korea Forest Research Institute(KFRI), is a forest provided for the research necessary for the sustainable forest management and the development of practical technologies. The following research projects are being conducted: • silviculture and forest management options; • forest tree improvement; and • long-term change of forest ecosystems, and climate change adaptation and monitoring. Additionally, the KFRI’s Experimental Forests are dedicated to the forest education which aims to increase people’s understanding of the importance of trees and forests, and the dissemination of knowledge and technologies developed by KFRI. 02 Management Strategy Strategic Goal Address the issue of forest and forestry by strengthening the linkage among policies, R&D and fields R&D Goal Increase the added value of forest R&D by developing technologies applicable to the forest and forestry fields Managerial Strategy Strategy Establish the infrastructure Strategy Conduct the research projects Strategy Dissemination of knowledge 01 for the sustainable 02 applicable to the forest policies 03 and technologies management of EF and forestry fields Protection and maintenance of EF Development of non-timber forest Establishment of model and Development of the web-based products as short-term income sources demonstration forests operational system Breeding of new timber varieties for Establishment of educational forests Establishment and management reforestation, and North Korea and for foresters and forest students of the database for the EF overseas plantations Operation of educational programs information Development of silvicultural technologies and services Expansion of EF and experimental Installation of flux towers for monitoring Diffusion of new varieties and their sites in EF the long-term change of forest cultivation methods Expansion of ex situ gene ecosystems and climate change conservation forests Test of the applicability of developed- technologies and models in the fields 03 Gwangneung Distribution of Seoul KFRI’s Experimental Suwon Forests 01 Headquarters Hongneung : 35 ha Urban forest ecosystems, Public education Jinju Seogwipo 02 Forest Practice Research Center 04 Southern Forest Resources Research Center Gwangneung: 1,072 ha Jinju: 749 ha Timber production, Gene conservation, Biodiversity conservation Public education 03 Dept.

Station Hongneung neighborhood park 06 Outline The Hongneung Experimental Forest is located at the southwestern foot of Mt. Cheonjang (elevation : 141 m a.s.l.), east of Seoul. In the past, the grave for Empress Myeongseong was located in the forest (The grave was moved to another region in 1919). The name of the Experimental Forest originated from the name of the grave, Hongneung (‘Neung’ means a grave in Korean). In 1922, Korea’s first arboretum was established in the forest with the foundation of the Forestry Experiment Station, the former of KFRI. Currently, the arboretum holds a total of 2,035 plant species (1,224 woody plant species and 811 herbaceous plant species). During the weekdays, the forest is opened to the students for educational purposes. Since 1993, the forest has been opened to the public on Saturdays and Sundays, to increase people’s understanding of the importance of trees and forests.

In 1911, most of the forest with the exception of the grave area was designated as the experimental forest. In 1912, an experimental nursery and an experimental site were set up in the forest. Since then, the Gwangneung Experimental Forest has played a key role in developing silvicultural technologies.

The study area was Yuncho-myen, Koje-si, Kyungnam, which is located in the southern part of Korea. Damaged area by pine wilt disease were extracted by analysis of DN value Red and NIR bands that was histogram analysis after image correction to topographical conditions (direction, slope, elevation etc.), also ground truth datum were helpful in terms of GPS field survey. These bands of IKONOS image have been used for lost of studies in the field of forest and vegetation. The result of analysis per topographical conditions, eight aspects (north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest) appeared striking difference of DN value. However, slope did not appeared difference of DN value. And elevation did not appeared difference of DN value, too. The result of extraction using satellite images was compared with real damaged tree, which was extracted from GPS field survey.

In this study, we propose urban disaster prevention plans based on the classification and characterization of flood vulnerable areas reflecting demographic changes. Data on the property damage, casualties, and flooded area between 2009 and 2018 in 229 municipalities in South Korea were collected and analyzed, and 74 flood vulnerable areas were selected. The demographic change in the selected areas from 2000 to 2018 was examined through comparative analyses of the population size, rate of population change, and population change proportion by age group and gender. Flood vulnerable areas were categorized into three types through K-mean cluster analysis. Based on the analysis results, a strategic plan was proposed to provide information necessary for establishing regional flood-countermeasure policies. Keywords: urban disaster prevention plan; flood vulnerability; climate change; demographic change; cluster analysis 1. Introduction Floods are one of the most dangerous and destructive natural hazards that can cause human loss and economic damages [1–3]. Climate change is expected to increase the frequency of flooding and the extent of damage caused by it [4–6].

Energy transition pursues systematic changes to the low-carbon society, and it can benefit from technological and institutional advancement in smart cities. The integration of the energy transition to smart city development has not been thoroughly studied yet. The purpose of this study is to find empirical evidence of smart cities’ contributions to energy transition. The hypothesis is that there is a significant difference between smart and non-smart cities in the performance of energy transition. The Smart Energy Transition Index is introduced. Index is useful to summarize the smart city component’s contribution to energy transition and to enable comparison among cities. The cities in South Korea are divided into three groups: (1) first-wave smart cities that focus on smart transportation and security services; (2) second-wave smart cities that provide comprehensive urban services; and (3) non-smart cities. The results showed that second-wave smart cities scored higher than first-wave and non-smart cities, and there is a statistically significant difference among city groups.

What were the objectives of the research project? Why is the research project important? Vulnerability of Agricultural Production Networks and Global Food Value Chains due to Natural Disasters in Korea and Austria: ICT Roles Extreme climate events damage agricultural production and are likely to cause even more damage with enhanced climate change. The role of ICT in reducing risks and to save harvests must be highlighted. We indicate the transferability of ICT applications from Korea to Austria. We show that ICT can increase the agricultural and food value chain on a regional and global scale but currently it a huge investment that has to be supported by state and provincial programs. 2. Were the objectives of the fellowship achieved? 1) To assess in how far extreme climate events have damaged or can damage production at Korean sites and to assess what is the role of ICT in reducing risks and to save harvests.
