This study was conducted to investigate the changes understory vegetation composition (shrub and herb layers) in Mt. Gyebang as a northern-temperate deciduous broadleaf forest. Tracheophytes were 146 taxa, consisting 56 families, 93 genera, 124 species, 17 varieties, 3 forma, 2 sub-species and 1 unknown taxa in research subject area. As species area curve analysis, herbaceous layer and shrub species have been decreased over time. As a result of Mantel-test, basal area of upper layer affects to understory vegetation change (p<0.0001). Mean importance value was dominated Lindera obtusiloba (21.585%), Rhododendron schlippenbachii (19.774%) in the shrub layer, identified Sasa borealis (14.082%) and Lindera obtusiloba (7.921%) in the herb layer. According to NMS analysis of shrub layer, Species characterized by strong correlation have been reduced as time goes by. And it reports different species as an increasing in basal area of the upper layer. Herb layer plots of the NMS analysis, Rhododendron schlippenbachii and Rhododendron mucronulatum consistently were affected in shrub layer. In consequence of MRPP-test for changes in vegetation composition, It was analyzed that there are no significant differences for vegetation composition changes on shrub layer in 5-10 years. As a changes of vegetation composition on herb layer were analyzed significantly, composition change of herb layer species was larger than shrub layer species in understory vegetation.

A mixed forest community of broad-leaved trees in Guryongsan area was studied to determine the adequate number of plots of tree and shrub strata for investigating forest community structure. Fifteen 10m$\times$10m plots were set up in the tree stratum and fifteen 5m$\times$5m plots were set up in the shrub stratum. Species-area curves and performance curves were made from vegetation analysis of the plots. In tree stratum, the minimum number of plots where a given percentage increase in number of plots produced less than the same percentage in number of species was five. In tree stratum, minimum number of plots where a given percentage increase in nuts her of plots produced less than the half of the percentage increase in number of species was ten. In tree stratum, minimum number of plots where the dominant species was distinguished from the subdominant species was four In tree stratum. minimum number of plots where the subdominant species were distinguished from each other was eight. In tree stratum, the difference of species diversity(H') between seven or more plots and total fifteen plots was less than 0.05 Similarity index was more than 80% between aye or more plots and total fifteen plots, and more than 90% between nine or more plots and total fifteen plots. In shrub stratum, the minimum number of plots where a given percentage increase in number of plots produced less than the same percentage in number of species was five . In shrub stratum, the minimum number of plots where a given percentage increase in number of plots produced less than the half of the percentage increase in number of species was twelve.

기존 연구 문헌의 고찰로 서울시 야생조류상의 현황 및 관리방안은 다음과 같이 결론지을 수 있다. 1. 서울시 야생조류상에 대하여 물새와 산새를 모두 연구한 결과가 아직 발표되지 않아 정확한 현황은 파악하기 어려우나 번식기에는 약 40 여종, 겨울철에는 40여종이 서식하는 것으로 볼 수 있으나, 앞으로 정교하며 지속적인 모니터링이 필요하다. 2. 도시림 뿐만 아니라 주변의 패치를 동시에 고려한 통합적 접근방식(intergrated approach)으로 도시림을 연구하여 관리해야 할 것이다. 3. 도시림의 면적은 도시림에 번식하는 야생조류의 종 수에 큰 영향을 미치는 지배적인 인자로써 도시림이 더 이상 다른 토지이용 형태로 전환되지 않도록 관리하는 것이 가장 기초적인 관리 지침이다. 4. 대면적의 숲이 세분화 될 경우, 여름철새의 번식에 지장이 있을 수 있으므로 대면적 숲의 세분화를 막아야 하며, 가능한 한 생태통로(eco-corridor)로 세분화 된 숲을 연결할 수 있는 기술을 개발해야 할 것이다. 5. 도시림에 생육하는 임목 중 대경급 임목은 나무구멍을 둥지자원으로 이용하는 조류의 중요한 은신처와 둥지이므로 대경급 임목을 대신할 수 있는 인공새집의 설치는 나무구멍을 둥지로 이용하는 조류의 번식 종 수를 높이는 방법이다. 또한, 도시림이 시민에 의해 과도하게 이용될 경우, 관목층이 제거되어 관목층을 둥지자원으로 이용하는 조류의 서식에 불리한 조건을 제공할 수 있으므로 등산로 주변에 관목성 수목을 밀식하여 등산로의 확폭과 파괴를 막아야 할 것이다. 풍부한 먹이 자원을 제공하기 위하여 관목층 보호를 꾀하고 임목의 조림과 무육에 힘써야 할 것이다. 6. 동일한 면적에서 번식 조류 종 수를 높이는 방법은 엽층의 피도량을 늘이는 것이다. 현재 서울의 도시림은 엽층의 분화보다는 우선, 피도량의 증가를 위해 노력해야 하며 후에 엽층의 다양성을 높여 산림의 수직적 구조를 다양하게 만들어야 할 것이다. 7. 들고양이와 들개에 의한 소형 조류의 피해가 늘고 있으므로, 야생조류의 천적인 들고양이와 들개를 구제해야 할 것이며, 이에 앞서 서식실태가 조사되어야 할 것이다. 8. 한각을 비롯한 지천의 하변에 서식, 월동하는 물새류와 서식지에 대한 연구와 관리가 시급히 이루어져야 할 것이다. 9. 산불방지와 도시림 정비의 일환으로 실시해 온 관목층과 낙엽 및 죽은 가지를 제거하는 비과학적인 관행과, 하천유지유량을 높이고 하변 정비 및 산불 방지으 ㅣ한 방편으로 진행된 하변 식생 제거는 전문가와 충분히 제고한 후, 없어져야 할 것이다.

We recorded the movement of wildbirds nine times at Hoam 1st Tunnel, Kkachisan Park, Deungneung pass to compare the movement between eco-corridor and neighboring crossing road from June to September, 2006. Among three areas, birds did not prefer the eco-corridor at pass type such as Kkachisan Park and Deungneung pass, however number of species and individuals were high at the eco-corridor at Hoam 1st Tunnel. Over 90m width and the slope location of eco-corridors can be beneficial for wild birds to enhance the movement along eco-corridors between isolated two patches. Average foliage volume under two meters showed the relation with bush nesters, and that from 7 to 8m had the highest relationship with canopy nesters. In Seoul city, target species should be considered at the construction of eco-corridors according to site characteristics, but Paradoxornis webbianus could be suggested as a main target species at eco-corridors. To enhance the movement of diverse wildbirds, we would implement that eco-corridors could be located at the slope area with the size of 1ha (over 90m width), eco-corridors could be planted and managed with the high foliage volume of shrub layer under twometers and canopy layer over 8 meters.
