본 연구는 온대 낙엽활엽수림의 하층식생 변화를 구명하여 산림생태계의 체계적 보전과 효율적 관리를 위한 기초자료를 제공하기 위하여 수행하였다. 2003년 경기도 포천 광릉 숲에 1ha 크기의 영구조사구를 설치하였으며, 영구조사구는 10×10m 크기의 부조사구 100개로 구성되었다. 영구조사구의 임분동태 및 하층식생은 2003년부터 2018년까지 5년 간격으로 조사되었다. 조사구에 출현하는 관속식물은 56과 128속 176종 18변종 4품종 1아종으로 총 199분류군 이었다. 관목층과 초본층의 종수는 시간이 경과함에 따라 모두 감소하는 경향을 보였다. MRPP-test 분석 결과 관목층의 종조성은 2008년-2013년을 제외한 모든 연도에서 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 초본층의 경우 모든 연도에서 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 평균 중요치에서 관목층은 참회나무(18.23%), 당단풍나무(16.48%), 작살나무(13.85%)가 우점하는 것으로 분석되었으며, 초본층에서는 단풍취(23.41%), 애기나리(9.45%), 주름조개풀(5.62%)이 우점하는 것으 로 나타났다. 관목층은 상층 임분의 흉고단면적과 임분밀도가 높을수록 청미래덩굴, 청괴불나무, 고광나무의 풍부도가 높았으며, 흉고단면적과 임분밀도가 낮을수록 당단풍나무, 물참대, 산뽕나무, 산딸나무의 풍부도가 높았다. 시간이 경과 할수록 흉고단면적과 임분밀도는 초본층에 미치는 영향이 적은 반면, 관목층의 참회나무와 당단풍나무의 피도는 초본층 종 구성에 미치는 영향이 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 결론적으로 광릉 장기생태조사지의 하층은 종수가 지속적으로 감소하고 있으며, 이 과정은 상층 임분의 종다양성과 흉고단면적, 임분밀도가 하층식생 종조성에 영향을 주는 것으로 판단되었다.

Moths were collected using a 22W UV black light trap in June through September in 2005 and May, June, August and September in 2006. The study sites were Namsan (Mt. Nam), Jirisan (Mt. Jiri), Woraksan (Mt. Worak) which are part of the Korean National Long Term Ecological Research (KNLTER). There were two common forest communities, Quercus mongolica and Pinus densiflora. The purpose of this study was to compare species diversity of the major plant feeding Lepidoptera in the two forest types at the regional KNLTER sites. We collected a total of 435 species from the KLTER sites in 2005 and 2006. Abundance of moths was highest at Woraksan (Mt. Worak) followed by Jirisan (Mt. Jiri). The Namsan (Mt. Nam) site had the lowest, with five families (Arctiidae, Geometridae, Noctuidae, Notodontidae, and Pyralidae). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed statistically significant differences at sampling date in species abundance as a response variable and at site in species richness as another response variable. Although we expected a distinct cluster with the forest type at each study site, one of ordination analyses, nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMS), showed distinct clusters with the moth assemblages at each site only but NMS did not show any distinct cluster with the different forest types at each site as we expected.

Moths were caught by using two 22W UV black light traps per treatment during May, June, August and September in 2007 from our study sites. Our study areas of the Korea Long Term Ecological Research (KLTER) sites were Mt. Nam with two plant communities (Quercus mongolica, Pinus densiflora), Mt. Jiri with three plant communities (Q. mongolica, P. densiflora, Abies koreana), Mt. Wolak with three plant communities (Q. mongolica, P. densiflora, Q. variabilis), and Mt. Jumbong with t재 plant communities (Q. mongolica, P. densiflora). The purpose of this study was to compare the species diversity of major plant feeders, Lepidopteran species (moths) at each forest type of the regional KLTER sites. Overall, the total numbers of moth species we’ve collected from the all KLTER sites in 2007 were 670 species. For the three plant communities, Mt.Jiri (11 family, 259 species, 2372 individuals) was the highest site and Mt. Wolak (7 family, 401 species, 2243 individuals) was the next highest. For the two plant communities, Mt. Jumbong (14 family, 166 species, 1750 individuals) was highest and Mt Nam (4 family, 21 species, 142 individuals) was very few. The ordination analyses, Nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMS) and cluster analysis, showed distinct clusters separating the assemblages of moth found at each site and each plant community of the KLTER sites (P<0.05 from MRPP). Therefore, we suggest that our sustainable monitoring will verify the distinct cluster with the forest type at each site with many replications.

The purpose of this study was to propose an efficient management plan for purchased land considering the hydrological, watershed characteristics and ecological functions of the target land and surrounding area based on the result of monitoring the water quality improvement effect obtained by purchasing the land in the watershed area in the Geum river system. For this purpose, this study investigated through literature review, and examined ways to apply them to this research by deriving implications from a comprehensive analysis of previous research cases. After that, the components of assessment were derived to evaluate the ecological function of the purchase land, and the ecological function evaluation model for each land and area was proposed. In order to select purchase and restoration priorities of the land, this study analyzed the ecological status of the purchased land in main watersheds and tributaries using Arc GIS ver 10.1. Through this, a process to select restoration priorities was developed. And this study constructed the integrated management process with proposing a mid - to long - term plan by integrating the purchased land valuation and restoration priority selection process. Based on this process, this study suggested an effective management plan for purchased land through the integrated ecological management system of lands purchased. It can be used systematically in appraisal valuation, land purchase system, restoration project, and follow-up management of land purchase.
