오대산국립공원 중대사-비로봉 구간 식물군집구조 The Structure of Plant Community in Jungdaesa-Birobong Area, Odaesan National Park
pp.764-776
본 연구는 오대산국립공원 해발 1,000m 이상의 고지대인 중대사~비로봉 구간에 대한 산림식생현황 및 천이계열, 변화양상을 파악하는데 그 목적이 있다. 중대사~비로봉 구간의 식물군집구조를 파악하기 위하여 20m×20m(400㎡)의 방형구 17개소를 설정하였다. 설정된 조사구별 상대우점치, 흉고직경급별 분포, 표본목의 생장량 및 수령, 유사도지수, 종다양도지수 등을 분석하였다. DCA분석 결과, 군집 Ⅰ(신갈나무-피나무군집), 군집 Ⅱ(신갈나무-낙엽활엽수군집), 군집Ⅲ(신갈나무-잣나무군집), 군집Ⅳ(전나무-신갈나무군집), 군집 Ⅴ(전나무-낙엽활엽수군집) 등 5개 식물군집으로 분류되었다. 조사구별 상대우점치 분석결과, 신갈나무는 해발고가 높을수록, 전나무는 해발고가 낮을수록 군집내 상대 우점치가 높아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 군집Ⅰ, 군집 Ⅱ, 군집 Ⅲ은 현상태가 지속적으로 유지될 것으로 판단되었으며, 군집 Ⅳ, 군집Ⅴ에서는 신갈나무의 세력이 약화될 것으로 파악되었다. 표본목의 수령은 85~161년(평균 123년)이었다. 유사도지수 분석결과 5개의 군집은 이질성이 강한 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 높은 해발고의 군집 Ⅰ과 낮은 해발고의 군집 Ⅳ, Ⅴ간의 이질성이 높았다. 단위면적 400㎡당 샤논의 종다양도지수를 분석한 결과, 군집 Ⅲ(1.1109) > 군집 Ⅱ(1.0475) > 군집 Ⅰ(1.0125) > 군집 Ⅳ(0.9918) > 군집 Ⅴ(0.8686)의 순으로 높았다. 신갈나무가 우점하는 군집의 종다양도는 과거 연구 및 주변 지역 연구 결과와 비교하여 유사한 반면, 전나무가 우점하는 군집의 경우 다소 낮은 것으로 확인되었다.
This study aims to identify the structure of the plant community, and the ecological succession sere and the change in the forest ecosystem in Jungdaesa-Birobong area, Odaesan National Park_(i._e., located at high altitudes(over 1,000m)). It seeks to offer the basic data for the planning of vegetation management. In order to verify the status of the forest vegetation between Jungdaesa-Birobong, seventeen plots(size is 20m×20m) were set up as research sites at high altitudes. Importance value, distribution by diameter at breast height(DBH), the growth volume and age of the sample trees, similarity index and species diversity index of each survey plot were analysed. According to the results of DCA(Detrended Correspondence Analysis), one of the multivariate statistical techniques. It was found that the plant communities were classified into five groups: communityⅠ_(Quercus mongolica-Tilia amurensis community), community Ⅱ_(Q. mongolica-Deciduous broad-leaved community), community Ⅲ_(Q. mongolica-Pinus koraiensis community), community Ⅳ_(Abies holophylla-Q. mongolica community) and community Ⅴ_(A. holophylla-Deciduous broad-leaved community). Community Ⅰwhich is dominated by Quercus mongolica and Deciduous broad-leaved communities is located at an altitude of over 1,300 meters(ranging from 1,335m to 1,495m), the community Ⅳand Ⅴwhich are dominated by Abies holophylla are located at an altitude of under 1,200 meters(ranging from 1,115m to 1,175m) and the community Ⅱand Ⅲwhich include the main species of Quercus mongolica, Pinus koraiensis and Abies holophylla are located at an altitude of between 1,160 meters and 1,300 meters. The results showed that Quercus mongolica tends to have a higher importance value of woody species at a higher altitude while Abies holophylla tends to have higher importance value at a lower altitude. For the importance value woody species and –DBH class distribution, the communites Ⅰ, Ⅱand Ⅲare expected to continuously maintain the present status. Whereas, for the influence of communities Ⅳand Ⅴ, Q. mongolica is predicted to be weakened. The age of sample trees was between 85 and 161; the average age was 123. The index of Shannon's Species diversity (H') showed heterogeneity was found among community Ⅰ_(i._e., located at high altitude) and communities Ⅳand Ⅴ_(i._e., located at low altitude). As a results of analysing the index of Shannon's Species diversity (H': unit: 400㎡), community Ⅲshowed the highest diversity intex with 1.1109 followed by community Ⅱwith 1.0475, community Ⅰwith 1.0125, community Ⅳwith 0.9918 and community Ⅴwith 0.8686. This study verified that the index of Shannon's species was significantly different by plant communities. For instance, when comparing the index of Shannon's species diversity in Quercus mongolica communities of this study and that of past relevant research, the value of index is very similar. However, the diversity index for the community which is dominated by Abies holophylla showed lower value when compared to the results from past relevant research.
