Abstract

This study is to examine the environmental characteristics of subpopulations of Ilex crenata var. microphyllla Max. distributed in the east-west slopes of Mt. Halla National Park based on analyzing the factors of environment, vegetation and soil. The result of the TWINSAPN analysis conducted on 56 study plots between the altitudes of 500 m and 1600 m of east-west slopes of Mt. Halla National Park can be divided into five communities-Prunus maximowiczii Rupr., Manshurian fullmoon Maple, Carpinus tschonoskii Max., Daphniphyllum macropodum Miq., Quercus serrata Thunb. ex Murray and Pinus thunbergil Parl. Among these communities, the plot with high importance percentage of the subpopulation of Ilex crenata var. microphyllla Max., is the Carpinus tschonoskii Max.-Daphniphyllum macropodum Miq. included in the altitude of 600m~1200m radius. The dominant species of the upper shrub layer was Carpinus tschonoskii Max.(I.P.: 29.82%) while the dominant species of the canopy layer was Daphniphyllum macropodum Miq.(I.P.: 26.76%). For the understory layer the dominant species was Ilex crenata var. microphyllla Max.. Species diversity index was on the low end with 0.7424, indicating the stably formed climax community of Carpinus tschonoskii Max.. The analysis of soil properties showed high concentrations of organic matters, available phosphate and Ca, Mg, the high importance percentage of the of Ilex crenata var. microphyllla Max. is found in altitude of 600m~800m on the eastern slope and the altitude of 800m~1,000m radius on the west slope. This region is included in the southern part of the cold/hot forest zone, its high importance percentage of Carpinus tschonoskii Max. and low in the species diversity index of 0.7424, and has formed stable climax community of Carpinus tschonoskii Max. in Mt. Halla.

본 연구는 한라산국립공원의 동 서사면에 자생하는 좀꽝꽝나무 아개체군의 환경특성을 파악하기 위하여 환경요인, 식생 및 토양분석을 실시하였다. 한라산국립공원의 동 서사면 해발고 500m~1600m 내에 설정한 56개 조사지를 대상으로 TWINSPAN 분석결과 주목-산개벚지나무군집, 당단풍나무군집, 개서어나무-굴거리나무군집, 졸참나무군집, 곰솔군집 등 5개의 유형으로 구분되었다. 이 중 좀꽝꽝나무 아개체군의 우점치가 높은 군집은 개서어나무-굴거리나 무군집으로 해발고 600m~1200m 지점에 포함되며, 교목상층의 우점종은 개서어나무(I.P.: 29.82%)이고 아교목층의 우점종은 굴거리나무(I.P.: 26.76%), 관목층은 좀꽝꽝나무(I.P.: 33.08%)이었다. 이곳의 토양은 유기물함량, 유효인산 및 Ca, Mg의 양료가 많은 곳이다. 좀꽝꽝나무 아개체군의 우점치가 높은 곳은 동쪽사면 해발고 600m~800m, 서쪽사면 해발고 800m~1,000m 부근으로 이곳은 냉온삼림대 남부에 해당되는 곳으로 개서어나무의 우점치가 높고 종다양도지수도 0.7427로 낮은 편으로 개서어나무의 극상림을 형성한 안정된 상태로 보인다.
