Abstract

This study was conducted to analyze the effect of climate change on the tree-ring growth of Pinus koraiensis in Korea. Annual tree-ring growth data of P. koraiensis collected by the $5^{th}$ National Forest Inventory were first organized to analyze yearly growth patterns of the species. When tree-ring growth data were analyzed through cluster analysis based on similarity of climatic conditions, five clusters were identified. Yearly growing degree days and standard precipitation index based on daily mean temperature and precipitation data from 1951 to 2010 were calculated by cluster. Using the information, yearly temperature effect index(TEI) and precipitation effect index(PEI) by cluster were estimated to analyze the effect of climatic conditions on the growth of the species. Tree-ring growth estimation equations by cluster were developed by using the product of yearly TEI and PEI as independent variable. The tree-ring growth estimation equations were applied to the climate change scenarios of RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 for predicting the changes in tree-ring growth by cluster of P. koraiensis from 2011 to 2100. The results of this study are expected to provide valuable information necessary for estimating local growth characteristics of P. koraiensis and for predicting changes in tree-ring growth patterns caused by climate change.

본 연구는 기후변화가 잣나무의 연륜생장에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해 수행하였다. 잣나무의 연도별 생장패턴을 분석하기 위해 제5차 국가산림자원조사에서 수집된 연륜생장 자료를 정리하였다. 기후조건의 유사성에 근거한 군집분석 결과 잣나무 분포지역은 5개의 군집의 분류되었다. 시군별로 정리된 1951년부터 2010년까지 60년 동안의 월별 평균기온과 강수량 자료에 근거하여 각 군집의 연도별 생장도일과 표준강수지수를 산출하였다. 이 정보를 이용하여 기후조건이 생장에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 각 군집에 대한 연도별 온도효과지수와 강수효과지수를 추정하였다. 온도효과지수와 강수효과지수의 곱으로 표현되는 독립변수에 의해 연륜생장을 추정할 수 있는 연륜생장 추정식을 군집별로 개발하였다. 이 추정식을 기후변화 시나리오 RCP 4.5와 RCP 8.5에 적용함으로써 기후변화가 군집별 잣나무의 연륜생장에 미치는 영향을 예측하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 잣나무의 지역별 생장특성의 추정뿐만 아니라 기후변화에 따른 생장패턴의 변화 예측에 필요한 유용한 정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
