비오톱 정원 조성 후 모니터링 및 적응관리 방법 연구

Abstract

This study was carried out to monitor and observe the vegetation change of an aquatic biotope garden built in wetland. The study defined the concept of biotope garden and provided clues for ecologically adaptive management of biologically healthy garden. A biotope garden is a garden built with “biotope” as its main theme, to be easily approachable by public and serves as alternative garden offering ecological service in daily life. Also, a biotope garden focuses on wide usage of biotope instead of conservation. The main objectives and functions are such as enhancement biodiversity (wildlife habitat), climate change adaptation (carbon zero), water treatment (reduction nonpoint source from around landuses), water front and culture (amenities and storytelling), eco-healing (clean water and air, anion). especially protect the ecological precincts against ecological effects. The vegetation communities were selected from the standard vegetation community models derived by surveying vegetation, hydrologic and soil factors from reference wetlands. Water could be circulated from the ecopond to the retention reservoir by the circulation pump. Results of monitoring in 3 times, totally 54 species of vegetation were founded out. And the monitoring and adaptive management such as elimination of non-native species were conducted but introduced continuously, performance assessment and adaptive management based on the results of monitoring were required to manage the biotop garden as soundly. As a furthur studies with additional monitoring to verify the effect of promoting biodiversity for the animals and the carbon reduction by measuring the amount of carbon stored or reduced in soil, water bodies and vegetations will be necessary.
