Abstract
This study was carried out to analyze Sungkyunkwan University Forest vegetation at Pocheon. Employing the releve method of Braun-Blanquet, 20 plots were sampled. The communities were classified into Larix leptolepis community, Quercus mongolica community, Pinus koraiensis community and Pinus densiflora community. Average coverage rate was 91% in tree layer, 39% in subtree layer, 44% in shrub layer, 43% in herb layer, respectively. The importance values were 61.79% in Larix leptolepis, 52.08% in Quercus mongolica, 44.6% in Pinus koraiensis, 30.35% in Pinus densiflora, 17.78% in Styrax obassia, 10.9% in Fraxinus rhynchophyllia. DBH range of most Quercus mongolica was between 6cm and 15cm. Therefore, Quercus mongolica will be dominant species in the study area for several more decades.
