Abstract

In this study, we selected 6 vegetation sites (reed community) and 6 non-vegetation sites (tidal flat) in the Muan tidal flat of Hampyeong Bay, and observed seasonal changes in carbon dioxide concentration, flux and soil temperature at low tide conditions. The study was conducted to identify the characteristics of seasonal changes in vegetation and non-vegetation areas through the data observed in May 30, August 8, 2012 and January 31, 2013. The average carbon dioxide concentration in the vegetation area was the highest in winter, followed by spring and summer, and the non-vegetation area showed the same concentration change as the vegetation area. The carbon dioxide flux in the vegetation area showed a positive (+) value in both spring and summer, but it was negative (-) in the winter. The average value of carbon dioxide flux was the highest in spring, but it was almost similar to summer, and winter was the lowest negative value. Non-vegetation areas showed positive emission in spring, and negative uptake in summer and winter; mean values were the highest in spring, and the difference between summer and winter was small. In summary of seasonal change characteristics of the research area, the emission of carbon dioxide was dominant in both areas in spring. In summer, carbon dioxide emission was dominant in the vegetation area, and the non-vegetation area was observed to uptake by photosynthesis of phytoplankton, but it was very small. In winter, changes in flux in both areas were very slight.

본 연구에서는 함평만에 속하는 무안 지역의 갯벌에서 갈대가 서식하는 식생 지역과 갈대가 없는 비식생 지역을 6개 지점씩 선정하여 저조시에 계절별로 이산화탄소 농도와 플럭스 및 지온의 변화를 관측하였다. 관측은 2012년 5월 30일(봄)과 8월 8일(여름), 2013년 1월 31일(겨울)에 각각 수행되었다. 관측 결과, 식생 지역의 이산화탄소 평균농도는 전체적으로 겨울에 가장 높았고 봄, 여름 순으로 나타났으며, 비식생 지역도 식생 지역과 같은 농도변화를 보였다. 식생 지역의 이산화탄소 플럭스는 봄과 여름에 모두 양(+)의 값으로 방출(emission)의 형태를 보이나, 겨울에는 반대로 흡수(uptake)하는 음(-)의 값으로 나타났다. 이산화탄소 플럭스의 평균값은 봄이 가장 높았으나 여름과 거의 유사하였고, 겨울은 낮은 음의 값으로 나타났다. 비식생 지역은 봄에 양의 값으로 방출의 형태를 보였고, 여름과 겨울에는 흡수하는 음의 값으로 나타났다. 평균값은 봄이 가장 높았고, 여름과 겨울의 차는 작게 나타났다. 연구지역 이산화탄소 플럭스의 계절적인 변화특성은 봄의 경우 식생과 비식생 지역 모두 호흡에 의한 방출이 우세하였으며, 여름은 식생 지역에서 방출이 우세하였고 비식생 지역은 식물플랑크톤의 광합성에 의한 흡수가 확인되었으나 매우 미미하였다. 겨울은 식생 지역에서 이산화탄소 플럭스의 변화가 거의 나타나지 않았으며, 비식생 지역은 흡수가 일부 확인되었으나 매우 미미하였다.
