본 연구는 염해지역의 식재수종 선발에 대한 기초자료로 활용하고자 한국 남해안 방풍림 자생수목의 토양염분에 대한 내성과 염분비산 영향을 미치는 지대별 토양염분도와 출현수종을 조사 분석하였다. 조사지의 토양염분 EC1:5는 전체 평균 0.18dSm-1이었고, 최저 0.05dSm-1, 최고 0.58dSm-1이었다. 토양염분(EC1:5)은 I 지대를 제외하고는 해안 정선으로 부터 내륙으로 갈수록 낮았으며, II 지대〉llI지대〉I 지대〉IV지대 순으로 각각 EC1:5 0.22dSm-1 0.22dSm-1 0.19dSm-1 0.13dSm-1이었다. 출현한 자생식물은 45과 74속 9변종 100종 총 110분류군이었다. 토양염분이 가장 높은 단계인 EC1:5 0.50dSm-1를 초과하는 곳에 출현한 식물은 담쟁이덩굴과 안동이였으며, 그 다음으로 EC1:5 0.41~dSm-1까지 자생하는 식물은 꾸지뽕나무, 멍석딸기, 산초나무, 송악, 아까시나무, 졸참나무, 좀작살나무 퉁이었다. 전제 지대에 출현하는 수종은 정과 새머루이었고, 내조성이 높은 순비기나무는 I 지대에만 출현하였다. 전체 지대에서 중요도가 가장 높온 수종은 느티나무, 팽나무, 모감주나무, 예덕나무, 마삭줄, 칡 등이었다. 이러한 수종은 조사지의 자생 수종들 중에서 다른 수종에 버하여 상대적으로 내조성이 강한 수종으로 판단되었다.

This study was carried out to investigate the soil salinity and salt spray drift of the indigenous windbreak trees, and its main purpose was to provide basic data for the selection of salt-tolerant trees in the saline coastal region in the South Sea of Korea. The soil salinity(EC1:5)was 0.18dSm-1, which was an average degree of the whole areas of investigation whose salinity degree ranged from 0.05dSm-1 to 0.58dSm-1. The level of soil salinity gradually decreased as it moved farther inland, except the belt I. The level of decreasing soil salinity was found to be in the following order: belt II, belt III, belt I, belt IV. The degree of soil salinity was EC1:5 0.22dSm1:5, 0.22dSm1:5 0.19dSm-1 and 0.13dSm-1 respectively. The total 110 taxa, which consisted of 45 families, 74 genus, 101 species, and 9 varieties, were found to be tolerant to both soil salinity and salt spray drift. The trees that grow in the highest degree of salinity(EC1:5 0.50dSm-1)were Parthenocissus tricuspidata(Siebold & Zucc.), Planch and Lonicera japonica Thunb. The next group of trees that grow in the high degree of salinity ranging from EC1:5 0.41 to 0.50dSm-1 was Cudrania tricuspidata(Carr.) Bureau ex Lavallée, Rubus parvifolius L., Zanthoxylum schinifolium(Siebold & Zucc.), Hedera rhombea(Miq.) Bean., Robinia pseudoacacia L., Quercus serrata Thunb., Callicarpa dichotoma(Lour.) K. Koch, and so on. The woody species which grew in the entire belts were Pueraria lobata(Willd.) Ohwi and Vitis flexuosa Thunb., and Vitex rotundifolia L. f. which was known to be highly tolerant to salt spray drift was found only in belt I. The woody species with high important value(IV) were Zelkova serrata(Thunb.) Makino., Celtis sinensis Pers., Koelreuteria paniculata Laxmann, Mallotusjaponicus(Thunb.) Muell. Arg., Trachelospermum asiaticum(Siebold & Zucc.) NAKAI, and Pueraria lobata(Willd.) Ohwi. These species were classified as native windbreak trees that are comparatively more tolerant to salt spray drift than other kinds.
