Abstract

This study was carried out to classify vegetation structure of the southern and northern slopes in the Deogyusan National Park using TWINSPAN classification and DCCA ordination analysis. The vegetation on the southern slope was classified into Quercus mongolica community, Q. serrata community, Q. variabillis community, Pinus densiflora community, Carpinus laxiflora community, Cornus controversa community and Fraxinus mandshurica community. The vegetation on the northern slope was classified into Q. mongolica community, Q. serrata community, P. densiflora community, C. laxiflora community, Betula davurica community, C. controversa community, F. mandshurica community, B. costata community, Abies koreana community and Taxus cuspidata community. To find out important value in each slope, we took 103 districts on the southern slope and 137 districts on the northern slope. As the result, Q. mongolica was highest value in the southern and northern slopes, followed by P. densiflora, Q. serrata, Q. variabillis, Styrax obassia, Acer pseudosieboldianum in the southern slope, F. mandshurica, A. pseudosieboldianum, Q. serrata, C. laxiflora, C. controversa, C. cordata, Rhododendron schlippenbachii in the northern slope. Species distribution and ecological features had differences between the southern and northern slopes communities. As the result of DCCA ordination analysis, sea level and water availability had high correlation with community distribution. Besides, T-N, O.M., exchangeable Ca and pH did in the southern slope. And exchangeable Ca, pH also did in the northern slope.

본 연구는 덕유산국립공원 남 북사면 산림 식생을 TWINSPAN으로 분류하고 DCCA ordination으로 분석한 결과, 남사면에서는 신갈나무군락, 졸참나무군락, 굴참나무군락, 소나무군락, 서어나무군락, 층층나무군락 및 들메나무군락으로 구분되었으며, 북사면에서는 신갈나무군락, 졸참나무군락, 소나무군락, 서어나무군락, 물박달나무군락, 층층나무군락, 들메나무군락, 거제수나무군락, 구상나무군락 및 주목군락으로 구분되었다. 사면별 중요치를 남사면에서는 103개 조사구를 대상으로, 북사면에서는 137개 조사구를 대상으로 분석한 결과 신갈나무가 남 북사면 모두에서 높은 중요치를 보였고 남사면에서는 신갈나무 다음으로 소나무, 졸참나무, 굴참나무, 쪽동백나무, 당단풍 순으로 나타났다. 북사면에서는 신갈나무 다음으로 들메나무가 높은 값을 나타냈고, 당단풍, 졸참나무, 서어나무, 층층나무, 까치박달, 철쭉꽃 순으로 나타났다. 남 북사면에서 군락 간에는 종조성 및 생태적 특징에 다소 차이가 있는 것으로 조사되었다. DCCA ordination 분석한 결과 해발고도와 수분요소가 남 북사면에서 모두 군락의 분포와 상관이 높은 것으로 나타났고 그 외에 남사면에 서는 T-N, O.M., Ca 양료와 pH가 비교적 높은 상관관계를 보였으며, 북사면에서는 Ca 양료와 pH도 비교적 높은 상관관계를 보였다.
