Abstract

This study aims to identify and reduce the gaps of understandings and thoughts of river restoration between river engineers and ecologists by logically re-examining the definition and value of river restoration. For this purpose, function, and goods and services of river ecosystem are analyzed based on the study of those by de Groot et al. (2002). From the result of this analysis, definitions and strategies of presently-known river restoration and its similar activities are re-examined. Next, presently-known river restoration models, ERM (Ecological restoration model), ARM (Amenity restoration model) and semi-ERM (semi-Ecological restoration model), are reinforced in their frameworks. This study is expected to narrow the gap, between the professionals of different fields, of their understandings and thoughts of river restoration.

본 연구는 하천복원에 대해 하천기술자들과 생태학자들 간 이해와 사고의 간격을 확인하고 그 간격을 줄이기 위해 하천복원의 정의와 의의를 학술적, 논리적으로 재 고찰 하는 것이다. 이를 위해 우선 하천생태계의 기능, 재화와 용역에 대해 de Groot et al. (2002)의 자료에 근거하여 분석하였다. 이를 토대로 지금까지 알려진 하천복원을 포함한 유사 활동의 정의와 복원전략을 재고찰 하였다. 그 다음 생태복원모형 (ERM), 어메너티복원모형 (ARM), 준생태복원모형 (semi-ERM) 등 기존의 하천복원모형의 개념을 보완하였다. 이 연구는 그 동안 하천복원에 대해 이해와 생각을 달리한 전문가들이 서로 간 사고의 간격을 줄이는데 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.
