Abstract

The objectives of this study were to identify the root plate dimension of wind-uprooted trees and to analyze the relationship among wind direction, aboveground and belowground properties of the trees. The root plates of 77 Japanese larches (Larix kaempferi) and 24 Korean pines (Pinus koraiensis), which were uprooted by a typhoon in 2012, in the Taehwa Experimental Forest of Seoul National University, Korea, were investigated. The results showed the root plate shape could be assumed to be an oval or a circle in above view, and half an ellipse in side view, respectively. Also, the number and surface area of individual roots in root plates were greater in uprooting direction than in non-uprooting direction. The results of correlation analyses between aboveground and belowground properties indicated DBH had more significant correlation with belowground properties than tree height. Finally, simple linear relationships were derived for significantly correlated tree aboveground and belowground properties.

이 연구는 풍도목 근분의 구조형태적 특성을 파악하고, 풍향에 대응하는 수목뿌리의 발달 특성 및 수목의 지상부와 지하부 특성 간의 상관관계를 분석하고자 하는 목적으로 수행되었다. 이를 위해서 서울대학교 태화산 학술림에서 발생한 77 그루의 낙엽송과 24 그루의 잣나무 풍도목의 근분에 대한 현장조사를 실시하였다. 근분의 형태적 특성을 조사한 결과, 풍도목 근분은 타원형 혹은 원형의 평면형을 보이며, 측면에서 살펴보면 반 타원체의 형태를 보였다. 또한, 근분 내 뿌리의 발달 특성을 조사한 결과, 평균적으로 수목의 전도 방향에서 비전도 방향보다 뿌리의 개수가 더 많고, 뿌리 표면적이 더 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 수목의 지상부와 지하부 특성 간의 선형상관관계를 조사한 결과, DBH는 수고보다 근분 크기와 뿌리 표면적에 대해 상대적으로 강한 선형적인 상관관계를 보였다. 이러한 상관관계 분석 결과를 토대로 상관관계가 뚜렷한 수목 지상부와 지하부 특성 간의 단순선형회귀식을 수립하였다.
