단호박의 억제재배시 착과율 향상 및 유인노력 절감을 위한 한라산 중산간지(해발 600m) 육묘 효과를 검토 하였다. 정식직전 묘의 T/R율은 평지 육묘 9.5로 도장된 경향을 보였으나 중산간지 육묘에서는 5.4로 건실한 묘 생육을 보였다. 육묘 지역에 따른 1번 암꽃의 착생 위치는 평지 육묘 26.0마디에 비하여 중산간지 육묘 19.4마디로 크게 낮아졌으며 2번 암꽃 및 그 이후에 착생되는 암꽃들도 평지 육묘에 비하여 3~5마디 아래에서 착생되어 유인노력을 20% 정도 절감할 수 있었다. 2번과 착과율은 중산간지 육묘 17.2%로 평지 육묘 1.4%에 비하여 16%정도향상 되었다. 상품 수량의 경우 평지 육묘 3,500kg/10a에 비하여 중산간지 4,460kg/10a로 27%가 증가하여 한라산 중산간지를 이용한 여름철 육묘 효과가 크게 나타났다.

구상나무의 묘목을 이식하여 활착률을 높이는 방법을 찾고자, 한라산국립공원 어리목대피소(해발 900m)에서 양묘된 2~6년생 묘목을 식재시기별(하기와 춘기), 지표처리별(코이어 매트. 코이어 네트 및 무처리)로 시험식재하고 활착률과 신초생장량을 조사.비교하였다. 하기식재의 경우 묘목의 연령이 높을수록 활착율이 높았으며, 지표처리에 따른 차이는 없었다. 춘기식재의 경우에는 묘목의 연령이 낮을수록 활착률이 높았으며, 지표처리 및 차이는 없었다. 하기식재된 구상나무 묘목의 신초생장에 있어서는 지표처리의 효과가 통계적으로 인정되었다. 코이어 매트를 처리한 시험구가 평균 2.11mm로 가장 많이 성장하였고, 대조구는 평균 1.47mm 성장하는 데 그쳤다. 묘령은 신초생장에 영향이 없었으며. 상대적으로 3년생 묘목을 코이어 매트 처리한 경우가 2.26mm로 가장 잘 자랐다. 춘기식재된 구상나무 묘목의 신초생장에 있어서는 지표처리나 묘령의 통계적 유의성은 인정되지 않았다.

현재 한라산 국립공원의 경관과 생태계를 보전하기 위하여 관리계획을 수립하고 있다. 국립공원 관리자와 지역주민들은 한라산 경관에 미치는 관리시책의 시각적 영향에 관심이 많다 계획과정에서 가장 중요한 측면의 하나는 제안된 관리시책의 수용여부를 판단할 수 있도록 관리시책의 영향을 정확하게 예측, 평가하는 것이다. 그러므로 국립공원 관리자나 일반대중이 국립공원관리시책의 경관영향을 예측, 평가할 수 있는 간편한 기법과 방법이 필요하다. 제안된 관리시책의 시각적 영향을 CCG 포토몽타쥬 기법에 의해 작성한 합성사진에 나타냈고 설문응답자들은 이 합성사진들을 7점 SD 척도로 평가했다. 이 연구를 통하여 CCG 포토몽타쥬 기법의 실용성, 훼손지 복구의 필요성, 제안된 복구시책의 타당성 등이 파악되었다. 이 연구에서 사용된 경관예측기법과 연구결과는 관리계획을 수립하고 그 계획과정에 주민을 참여시키는데 도움을 줄 것으로 생각한다.

한라산국립공원에서 이용객에 의한 등산로와 등산로주변의 환경훼손실태조사를 1990년에 실시하였다. 등산로폭과 주변의 나지노출폭은 이용강도와 정(＋)의 상관관계를, 주변식생의 수고와 경사도와는 부(-)의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 노면의 깊이는 노폭 및 나지노출폭과 상관관계를 나타냈다. 이용객에 의한 등산로주변의 면적훼손은 아고산지역에서 주로 발생하고 있었으며, 주 훼손지역의 총 면적은 121,000m2로, 그중 생태계보전사업이 시급한 면적은(훼손등급 4급이상) 약 72,000m2로 추정되었다. 등산로와 주변의 훼손유형은 10가지로 밝혀졌으며, 총 침식량은 약 62,000m2로 추정되었다.

This study was conducted to monitor the growth and development of Abies koreana seedlings in the Hallasan Mountain. Accordingly, the obtained results indicate that the number of A. koreana seedlings increased by 2.6 and 4.8 times in the Yeongsil and Jindallaebat areas, respectively, over the 10-year period. Most of these seedlings were found to be growing on moss-covered rocks. The average tree height over the last 10 years was obtained as 20.4 cm in the Yeongsil area and 3.6 cm in Jindallaebat with growths of 4.1 cm and 1.4 cm, respectively over the last 2 years. Of all the mature trees that were surviving in 2009, 6 died in Yeongsil in 2014 (with an additional 4 in 2018) and 13 in Jindallaebat in 2016. Over the 10-year period, the diameter at breast height of the trees in Yeongsil and Jindallaebat has increased by an average of 0.6 cm and 4.2 cm. Similarly, an average of 6.8 cones was found in the Yeongsil area in 2014 and 26.3 in Jindallaebat in 2016. However, in 2018, no additional cones were found in the former, although an average of 1.4 cones was observed in the latter. With respect to the average temperature and relative humidity, no significant difference could be observed between two monitored areas from 2016 to 2018. However, in July 2017 and February 2018, the average temperature was higher in the Jindallaebat area, while relative humidity was higher in Yeongsil, there by possibly affecting cone growth and flowering between areas. These results indicate the survival and growth of A. koreana seedlings in the Hallasan Mountain is sensitive to the environments of each area. Hence, continuous monitoring of the environment changes and in-depth studies on the flowering and fruiting of A. koreana seedlings needs to be carried out in order to analyze the relationship between their survival rates and changes in weather conditions.

In this study, mass concentrations and chemical compositions of PM2.5, including water-soluble ions and elements were determined at the 1,100 m-highland of Mt. Hallasan in Jeju Island across four seasons from August 2013 to August 2014. The average mass concentration of PM2.5 was 12.5±8.41 /m3 with 45.8% of the contribution from eight water-soluble ionic species. Three ionic species (SO4 2-, NH4 +, and NO3 -) comprised 96.2% of the total concentration of ions contained in PM2.5 and were the dominant ions, accounting for 43.5% of the PM2.5 mass at Mt. Hallasan. On the basis of the mass concentration level, seasonal variation, enrichment factor, and relationship among elements, we can presume that Mg, K, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Sr, Ba, Nd, and Dy originated mainly from crust or soil and that V, Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, and Pb were significantly enriched in PM2.5 owing to the effects of the anthropogenic emissions. These results and the local distribution of emission sources and topographic characteristics near this sampling site suggest that the compositions of PM2.5 collected at the 1100 m-highland of Mt. Hallasan were largely influenced by inflow from outside of Jeju Island.

The ambient mass concentration and chemical composition of the PM2.5 were determined at the highland site with 1,100 m above sea level on Jeju Island from June 2013 to November 2014. Yearly averaged mass concentration of PM2.5 was 11.97±8.63 /m3. PM2.5 concentrations were highest during the spring, while they tended to be lowest during the summer. Eight water soluble ionic species attributed 45.5% to PM2.5 mass. SO4 2-, NO3 - and NH4 + were major ions, which occupied to 27.9%, 3.7% and 12.3%, respectively. The greatest contributors to total mass concentration of water-soluble ions contained in PM2.5 were sulfate, ammonium and nitrate. These three ions accounted for 96.6% in total ions mass concentration of PM2.5. We could infer that these three secondary ions exist mostly in the form of (NH4)2SO4 and NH4NO3. Ca2+ and Mg2+ had a good relationship and with r=0.9. The molar ratio of Mg2+/Ca2+ in this study was lower than the value observed in sea water and higher than that in soil dust, indicating that these two ions originated from other sources rather than ocean and soil dust in this study.

This study’s purpose was to provide basic data for the monitoring of ecological changes caused by change of vegetation structure of Abies koreana forest in a study site susceptible to climatic change in Yeongsil area of Hallasan Mountain, Jeju Island. Surveys revealed this: in Yeongsil area of Hallasan Mountain, per 1 ha of A. koreana forests, total number 1,781, and A. koreana number 989, accounting for 55.5% of the total number of trees. 190 A. koreana or 19.2% were found to be dead. For the number of individual trees by DBH, trees standing 5 ㎝ -10 ㎝ tall formed the largest portion at 39.9%, and in the case of other trees except A. koreana, the number of individual trees below 5 ㎝ accounted for 23.5% of the total number of trees. The survey of importance by height revealed this: at the top level, the importance of A. koreana was the highest at 106.23, but the sum of importance of temperate deciduous broad-leaved trees (Prunus maximowiczii, Quercus mongolica, and Taxus cuspidata) was higher at 142.84 than that of A. koreana. The analysis of species diversity revealed 0.645 species diversity for the tree layer and 0.817 for the shrub layer; for evenness, 0.549 for the tree layer and 0.664 for the shrub layer; for dominance value; 0.451 for the tree layer and 0.336 for the shrub layer. The analysis of tree vitality revealed that for the A. koreana forests in Yeongsil, the composition ratio of A. koreana by type is AS type>AL type>DS type >DB type, and that of the other trees is AL type>AS type>AF type>AB type. Compared with the forests in other areas, the A. koreana forests in the Yeongsil area have a very high occurrence rate of dead trees, and a high importance of trees is shown in the deciduous broad-leaved tree forests. Compared with the A. koreana forests in the Jindallaebat area, with the same level above sea, the vegetation structures are fast changing. Also, due to dryness and other non-physical environmental changes caused by a lack of rainwater and dry winds in winter, dead trees are fast increasing in number. Environmental changes such as climate change diversely affect the maintenance of A. koreana in individual areas, and if environmental changes are fast and continue long, of the A. koreana forest areas in the Hallasan Mountain, the A. koreana forests in the Yeongsil area will decrease fastest in number and will experience changes in the vegetation structure. Thus, it is necessary to survey the vegetation changes in A. koreana forests, which are distributed in all directions but are centered on Hallasan Mountain, and to thus conduct long-term monitoring and research.

2014년 8월 2일에 발생된 태풍 나크리의 영향으로 한라산의 윗세오름 강우관측소에는 우리나라의 1일 최대 강우량이 기록되었다. 윗세오름은 한라산의 정상부근에 위치하고 있으며, 한라산의 다른 지역보다 강우량이 많이 관측되는 지역으로 알려져 있다. 그 원인으로는 산지효과가 자주 언급되고 있다. 그러나, 제주도에는 23개의 지상강우관측소만이 설치되어 있어 산지효과로 인한 강우량의 변화를 공간적으로 정확히 파악하기 어렵다. 이에 본 연구에서는 제주도의 한라산을 대상으로 성산기상레이더와 고산기상레이더의 반사도 자료를 이용하여 호우의 산지효과를 분석하였다. 먼저, 레이더 반사도의 고도를 250 m 간격으로 구분하고 지상에서 2,000 m 까지 반사도의 변화 양상을 조사하였다. 또한, 각 구간별로 레이더 자료와 가용한 AWS 자료를 이용하여 Z-R 관계식을 유도하였다. 마지막으로, 유도된 Z-R 관계식을 제주도 전역에 적용하여 최대 강수가 발생한 지점 및 그 크기, 아울러 제주도 전역에 내린 총 강수량의 분포를 추정하였다.

최근 아이슬란드 남부의 화산폭발은 유럽지역에 항공대란을 야기하였으며, 또한, 일본의 가고시마 화산 폭발은 대량의 화산재를 분출하여 도로 및 농작물에 많은 피해를 발생시켰다. 국내에서도 2002년 백두산 지역을 중심으로 강진에 의한 지표면 팽창현상이 관찰되면서 백두산의 화산폭발 위험성이 점증하고 있다. 백두산 화산폭발이 발생하는 경우 화산재의 처리에 따른 막대한 국가적 손실이 유발되므로, 화산재 처리 및 활용방안의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있는 실정이고 이를 위해서는 다양한 공학적 특성 분석 시험이 선행되어야 한다.본 연구에서는 SEM, XRD등의 미세구조 분석을 통해 화학성분 및 화산재의 내부구조를 고찰하고. 비중, 함수비, 입도 등의 시험을 실시하여 백두산 및 한라산 화산재를 친환경 건설재료로 활용하기 위한 공학적 자료를 제시하였다.

This study surveyed Abies koreana to identify the correlation between its vegetation structure according to its slope direction and seedling establishment in a bid to build basic research data on the changes and conservation of the A. koreana in Hallasan Mountain. The findings of its vegetation structure revealed that in both areas, Importance value was given to the A. koreana for its tree layer, the Taxus cuspidata for its shrub layer, and the Sasa quelpaertensis for its herb layer. However, in the Youngsil area with the tree layer, high importance was given to deciduous broad-leaved trees such as Prunus maximowiczii, Quercus mongolica, and the young species of the A. koreana in the shrub layer that can maintain the A. koreana forest’s greater importance in the Jindallebat than in the Youngsil. Thus, the A. koreana forest in the Jindallebat is believed to lastlonger. The findings of correlation between the quantity of seedlings and their location by area revealed that in each tiny quadrat, the A. koreana seedling averaged 5.3 in the Youngsil and 2.9 in the Jindallebat. Both areas were all found to have a positive correlation in terms of rock exposure ratio and dead tree ratio as well as a negative correlation with regard to the cover degree of S. quelpaertensis, the canopy gap, the total vegetation, and the herb layer. It was found that the cover degree of the herb layer in the Youngsil and the S. quelpaertensis in the Jindallebat had the largest impact on the A. koreana seedlings.

This study was carried out to investigate the distribution and their change of Pinus densiflora forests by climate change in Mt. Hallasan. The results showed that the areas of P. densiflora forests of Mt. Hallasan varied by region, with a total area of 1,324.3 ha, concentrated mostly in the region 1,000 m - 1,400 m above sea level. The temperate coniferous forest zone are distributed in the upper part of temperate forest zone composed of deciduous broad-leaved trees. Most of the P. densiflora forests in the lower parts were found not to be spreading because they are located close to the deciduous broad-leaved trees. However, the P. densiflora forests in the Sajebi and Pyeonggwe regions composed of the grasslands and shrub forests were found to be spreading. In addition, the altitude of the P. densiflora forests distribution increased by about 50 m and 90 m in the Sajebi and Pyeonggwe regions, respectively. The spread rate is expected to become faster than in the past due to the rate of climate change. The structure of the vegetation in Mt. Hallasan and the changes in the vegetation due to various factors need to be investigated from a long-term point of view.

This study focuses on the fauna, seasonal prevalence and altitudinal distribution of the flies from March to November, 2008 in Mt. Hallasan, Jejudo Island, Korea. The fauna of flies was 39 species belonging to 5 Families which consist of 12 Calliphoridae, 19 Muscidae, 5 Sarcophagidae, 1 Dryomyzidae 1, Scathophagidae and 1 Anthomyiidae. The total number of flies collected was 21,605 with sex ratio of 57.98% in Mt. Halla. The ratio is higher than that of the residential area and other mountain survey sites. The average number of per trap individuals collected on the trapping day is 267, which is similar with the average of Mts. Jiryong, Juwang, Palgong and Gumo. The five dominant species showed a distinctive seasonal prevalence of 92.6% of the total flies: Chrysomyia pinguis (34.2%), Calliphora lata (25.3%), Hydrotaea dentipes(23.1%), Fannia scalaris (5.1%), and Lucilia caesar (4.9%). The seasonal prevalence of the flies was from the beginning of March to the end of November, and the highest peak time of the whole flies, males and females were different respectively. In the similarity index of the flies collected in different altitude, that of between 1,000 meters and 1,500 meters was the highest among the indices of 500 meters and above 1,000 meters. The index at each altitude was above 80% because of the same area. The diversity index of fly species was between 0.00 and 0.88 through altitudinal traps monthly. The highest index in Trap 1 was 0.88 in October, in Trap 2, 0.82 in July and in Trap 3, 0.63 in July. The diversity above 1,000 meters was most various in July. The five dominant species of C. pinguis, C. lata, H. dentipes, F. scalaris, and L. caesar showed distinctive seasonal prevalence, relative abundance and altitudinal distribution respectively.

This study was performed to get more knowledge on the flora and their life form spectrum in the Hallasan Natural Reserve. The vascular plants include 83 species 35 genera 12 families of pteridophytes, 5 varieties 5 species 3 families of gymnosperm, 100 taxa in 2 varieties 98 species 58 genera 8 families of monocotyledon and 362 taxa in 3 forma 10 varieties 349 species 186 genera 65 families of dicotyledon in Hallasan Natural Reserve. The total of vascular plants is 550 taxa in 3 forma 11 varieties 536 species 284 genera 88 families. Among these, 204 species in total including 19 species of pteridophytes, 2 species of conifers, 45 species of monocotyledon and 138 species of dicotyledon are found only in the Hallasan Natural Reserve. The pteridophyte-quotient is 4.52 and floristic richness is 1.94. In the analysis of life form spectrum, there are 190 species (34.5%) of hemicryptophytes and 122 species (22.2%) of geophytes so that two life forms take large portions, 312 species (56.7%) of the vegetation in Hallasan Natural Reserve. Megaphanerophytes and microphanerophytes take 14.5% including 80 species followed by 83 species (15.1%) of nanophanerophytes, 42 species (7.6%) of chamaephytes, 29 species (5.3%) of therophytes, 24 species (4.4%) of hydrophytes and 18 species (3.3%) of epiphytes. According to the life form spectrum hemicryptophytes dominated high portions, which suggests Hallasan Natural Reserve has hemicryptophytic climate and similar to middle parts in the Korean Peninsular. The differences, however, were noticed by that it has more chamaephytes and less therophytes than that of the Peninsular and partially shows the characteristics of artic or subalpine climate.
