Abstract

The purpose of this study was to provide data for the basic research to found the effective conservation and management plan for the Geumdangsil Pine Forest of Yecheon designated as Natural Monument No. 469. Furthermore, this paper suggest efficient sustainable forest preservation and using. In order to achieve the sustainable forest preservation, this study was to analyse topography, land use, tree growth, soil environment, forest usage and forest management, etc. According to analysis the results, the site area is located in the flatlands where is from 130 to 140 m above sea level. The around forest was transformed into agricultural land. The 565 individuals of Pinus densiflora grows in the forest, whereas, 25 trees was cut down or died. There are signs of 25 stumps. The most of 565 trees' diameter at breast height(DBH) was centerized between 30 cm and 50 cm, moreover, the average life expectancy of trees were 85.4 years. The oldest age of tree was estimated to be 200 years. The Sample trees of rate of branch growth is from 4.3 cm to 5.1 cm per year. The middle branch which is more vigorous growth grow 24.2 cm for 3 years. Moreover, the result of soil physico-chemical properties analysis of 7 plots, 4 categories which is soil organic matter, total nitrogen, available phosphoric acid, specific electrical conductance was generally good, however, the 2 categories which is soil pH, exchangeable cation needed improvement. Currently, the site was not pressured by facilities and usage, however, there might be threaten by agriculture such as encroaching on forest. Therefore, there should establish comprehensive ecosystem management such as facility management, visitors management and operation management In this paper considered 4 fields that is ecosystem management, facility management, visitors management and operation management for sustainable management.

본 연구는 천연기념물 제469호로 지정된 예천 금당실 송림의 실질적인 보존관리방안 수립을 위한 기초자료를 확보하고 지속가능한 관리 및 보호방안을 제안하였다. 숲에 영향을 주는 문제점을 방지하고 저감하여 숲의 지속가능한 이용과 보전을 위해 본 연구에서는 지형 및 지세, 토지이용, 수목 생육현황, 토양환경, 이용 및 관리현황 등을 조사 분석하였다. 예천 금당실 송림은 해발 130~140m의 평탄지에 위치하며, 주변지역은 대부분 경작지로 이용되었다. 송림에 식재된 수목은 총 565주이며, 이중 소나무가 558주이고 25개의 밑둥이 확인되었다. 식재된 소나무는 흉고직경 30~50cm에 집중되어 있었으며, 평균 수령은 85.4년이었고, 최고 수령은 약 200년으로 추정되었다. 표본목의 가지 생장량은 연간 4.3~5.1cm이며 가장 생장이 왕성한 중앙의 가지는 3년간 평균 24.2cm의 생장을 보였다. 7개 조사구의 토양 이화학적 특성 분석 결과 유기물 함량, 전질소, 유효인산, 전기전도도 항목은 비교적 양호하였으나, 토양 pH, 치환성 양이온 등의 항목에서 개선이 필요하였다. 현재 내부의 시설물와 이용압력은 많지 않은 상태이나, 경작에 의한 잠식 등의 위협요인이 남아있으며, 생태계 관리에 치중한 관리로 시설물, 이용객, 운영 관리 등의 종합적인 관리가 필요한 상태이었다. 본 연구에서 제시한 지속가능한 관리방안은 생태계관리, 시설물관리, 이용객관리, 운영관리 4가지 부분을 고려하였다.
