Abstract

The study investigates the correlation between the seasonal changes in the absorption of fine dusts and the fine structure of surface on each type of street tree, such as Quercus myrsinifolia, Quercus glauca, Quercus salicina, Camellia japonica, and Prunus × yedoensis in the southernareas of Korea. The absorption ranges of fine dust were 31.51~110.44 ㎍/cm2 in January, 23.20~79.30 ㎍/cm2 in November, 22.68~76.90 ㎍/cm2 in May, and 9.88~49.91 ㎍/cm2 in August. The absorption value was about 54.4% higher in January than in May. With the grooves and hairs on the leaf surface and lots of wax, Q. salicina seems related to the high absorption rate of fine dust for each fine dust particle size. The one with gloss and smooth leaf surface has a low amount of wax. C. japonica Prunus × yedoensisshowed a low absorption rate of fine dust in each season. Whereas the increase in porosity density, length, and leaf area size can be related to the reduced PM and increasedabsorption rate, the leaf surface roughness, total wax amount, and porosity width can be related to the increase in the PM absorption rate. There was also a high correlation between the total wax amount and absorption rate of the leaf surface at the size of PM0.2 than PM10 and PM2.5. These results imply that the quantitative and qualitative trais of leaf, such as wax amounts and leaf surface,can increase the absorption of fine dusts, and the small-sized particles seem to be highly adsorbed with the high wax amounts.

본 연구는 한국 남부지역의 주요 조경수 가시나무(Quercus myrsinifolia), 종가시나무(Quercus glauca), 참가시나무(Quercus salicina), 동백나무(Camellia japonica), 왕벚나무(Prunus × yedoensis) 등 5수종을 대상으로 계절별 미세먼지 흡착량 및 수종별 잎 표면 미세구조와의 관계를 연구하였다. 계절별 미세먼지 흡착량 범위는 1월(31.51~110.44 ㎍/cm2), 11월 (23.20~79.30 ㎍/cm2), 5월(22.68~76.90 ㎍/cm2), 8월(9.88~49.91 ㎍/cm2) 순으로, 8월보다 1월에 54.4% 더 높은 미세먼지 흡착량을 보였다. 잎 표면에 홈이 있고 털을 갖고 있으며, 왁스층 함량이 높은 Q. salicina는 미세먼지 입자 크기별 흡착량이 높게 유지되었으며, 광택이 있고 잎 표면이 매끄러우며, 왁스층 함량이 낮은 C. japonica와 Prunus × yedoensis는 계절별 미세먼지 흡착량이 낮았다. 엽면적 크기, 기공밀도 및 기공 길이의 증가는 PM 흡착량의 감소와 관련이 있고 반면, 잎 표피 거칠기, 왁스층 함량, 기공 폭의 증가는 PM 흡착량의 증가와 관련이 있었다. 또한, 잎 표면 왁스층 함량이 증가할수록 잎 표면 PM 흡착량도 증가하였으며, PM10, PM2.5 보다는 PM0.2와 관련이 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, 앞으로 개별 수종에 대한 미세먼지 저감 효율을 정량적으로 판단할 수 있는 기준을 통한 저감 수종 선발과 더불어 미세먼지 저감을 위한 숲 조성 가이드라인 또한 제시되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.
