Abstract

The research was conducted to find optimal habitats of warm-temperate evergreen broad-leaved trees, and to investigate climate factors to determine their distribution using classification tree (CT) analysis. The warm-temperate evergreen broad-leaved trees model (EG-model) constructed by CT analysis showed that Mean minimum temperature of the coldest month (TMC) is a major climate factor in determining distribution of warm-temperate evergreen broad-leaved trees. The areas above the $-5.95^{\circ}C$ of TMC revealed the optimal habitats of the trees. The coldest month mean temperature (CMT) equitable to $-5.95^{\circ}C$ of TMC is $-1.7^{\circ}C$, which is lower than $-1^{\circ}C$ of CMT of warm-temperate evergreen broad-leaved trees. Suitable habitats were defined for warm-temperate evergreen broad-leaved trees in Korea. These habitats were classified into two areas according to the value of TMC. One area with more than$-5.95^{\circ}C$ of TMC was favorable to trees if the summer precipitation (PRS) is above 826.5mm; the other one with less than $-5.95^{\circ}C$ of TMC was favorable if PRS is above 1219mm. These favorable conditions of habitats were similar to those of warm-temperate evergreen broad-leaved trees in Japan. We figured out from these results that distribution of warm-temperate evergreen broad-leaved trees were expanded to inland areas of southern parts of Korean peninsula, and ares with the higher latitude. Finally, the northern limits of warm-temperate evergreen broad-leaved trees might be adjusted accordingly.

본 연구는 기후변화에 따른 한반도 난온대 상록활엽수의 분포변화와 CT분석을 이용하여 난온대 상록활엽수의 분포를 규정하는 기후요인과 분포적지를 밝히는 것을 목적으로 실시하였다. CT분석을 통해 구축된 한반도 난온대 상록활엽수 분포 모델(EG-model)에서 TMC(최한월최저기온)가 분포를 규정하는 주요 요인으로 작용하였으며, TMC(최한월최저기온)의 $-5.95^{\circ}C$이상을 난온대 상록활엽수의 분포적지로 하고 있다. 이러한 TMC값을 CMT(최한월평균기온)으로 환산한 값인 $-1.7^{\circ}C$는 동아시아 지역 상록활엽수림의 내성한계 온도인 최한월평균기온 $-1^{\circ}C$다 약간 낮은 것으로 분석되었다. 한반도의 난온대 상록활엽수는 최한월최저기온(TMC) $-5.95^{\circ}C$이상의 따듯한 지역에서는 하계강수량 (PRS)이 826.5mm이상인 지역에서, 최한월최저기온(TMC) $-5.95^{\circ}C$미만의 추운 지역에서는 하계강수량이 1219mm이상인 기후조건에서 높은 분포확률을 나타내었다. 이러한 분포경향은 일본의 난온대 상록활엽수의 분포경향과 비슷하였다. 또한, 난온대 상록활엽수는 한반도의 기온상승에 따라 고위도 및 남부내륙으로 분포를 확대하고 있으며 난온대 상록활엽수의 북방한계선 변화를 시사하고 있다.
