Abstract

This study tried to find out whether there is a change over time in the functional classification of forests in relation to human demand for forests. The level in which the concept of ecosystem services has been considered in national forest management plans was also examined. A total of 98 current and previous national forest management plans were available for this study. The composition ratios of the six functions of forests in both the current and previous national forest management plans were surveyed. We used a parametric t-test when the mean values of two (current and previous) groups were normally distributed and used nonparametric Wilcoxon code rank test when the assumption of normality was not met. Timber production forests were shown to follow a normal distribution, while five others, including water regeneration forests, disaster prevention forests, natural environment conservation forests, recreation forests, and living environment conservation forests were not shown to follow a normal distribution. Timber production forests and natural environment forests showed significant changes in the proportion of forest area between previous and current forest management plans. The concept of 'ecosystem services' began to actively appear in the 6th Basic Forest Plan, which started in 2018. However, the level of frequency of the ecosystem services mentioned varied by Regional Forest Services.

본 연구는 산림의 기능구분에서 시간에 따라 변화가 있는지 여부를 알아보고자 하였다. 또한 생태계서비스 개념이 현재 국유림 관리계획에서 고려되는 수준을 파악하고자 하였다. 자료는 98개 국유림의 경영계획구의 현재와 직전 기간의 경영계획서를 활용하였다, 경영계획서상 전, 현차기의 경영계획구별 산림기능별 면적의 구성 비율을 분석대상으로 삼았다. 전차기, 현차기의 2개 그룹의 평균이 정규분포를 따르는지 우선 검정하였다. 그 결과, 정규분포를 따르면 모수적 t-검정, 그렇지 않은 경우 비모수적 Wilcoxon 부호순위 검정을 실시하였다. 정규분포를 따르는 것은 목재생산림 경우가 해당되고, 나머지 5가지 기능: 수원함양림, 산지재해방지림, 자연환경보전림, 산림휴양림, 생활환경보전림은 정규분포하지 않는다. t-검정 또는 Wilcoxon 부호순위 검정을 실시한 결과, 유의미한 기능별 산림면적 비율의 변화를 보인 것은 목재생산림, 자연환경보전림이었다. '생태계서비스' 개념이 활발하게 언급되기 시작한 것은 2018년에 시작된 제6차 산림기본계획에서 부터이다. 지방산림청별 지역산림계획에서는 차이가 있었는데, 동부와 서부지방산림청 소관 지역산림계획에서는 위 개념에 대한 언급이 빈번하게 이루어졌으나 나머지 3개 지방산림청의 계획들에서는 그렇지 않았다.
