기후변화로 인한 곰솔림과 소나무림의 세력은 약해질 것으로 예상되고 있으나, 곰솔과 소나무에 대한 식재요구도는 여전히 높은 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 한반도 난온대림지역에 속하는 부산일대, 남동부지역에 주요 조경수목인 소나무림과 곰솔림을 대상으로 자연림의 생육밀도를 파악한 후 난온대림에 적합한 생태적 식재밀도를 제시하고자 하였다. 연구는 한반도 남동부에 해당하는 부산광역시를 중심으로 소나무림 22개소, 곰솔림 60개소를 선정하여 $100m^2$ 방형구를 설치하여 조사구 내 출현하는 교목, 아교목층 수종의 흉고직경 및 개체수를 조사한 후, 회귀분석을 통해 평균흉고직경급별 적정 개체수 산정을 위한 회귀식을 도출하였다. 회귀분석 결과, 흉고직경의 생장에 따른 교목층 생육개체수 예측모형의 결정계수는 곰솔림 0.700, 소나무림 0.533으로 단일 요인에 의한 설명력으로는 매우 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 예측 회귀모형은 곰솔림의 경우 $Y=31.176e^{-0.055x}$, 소나무림의 경우 $Y=38.351e^{-0.059x}$(X=흉고직경, Y=개체수/$100m^2$)였다. 남동부지역의 곰솔림과 소나무림의 생육밀도는 중부지방보다 다소 높았다.

본 연구는 경상북도 춘양지방 금강소나무림(이하 춘양목소나무림)의 식생구조 및 생육밀도를 밝히기 위하여 36개 조사구(단위면적: 100$m^2$)를 설치하고 식생조사를 실시하였다. 36개 조사구는 교목층의 흉고직경의 크기에 따라 군집을 분류한 결과. 군집 I (대경목), 군집 II (대경목), 군집 III(중경목), 군집 IV(소경목)의 4개 소나무군집으로 분리되었고, 교목층은 소나무, 아교목층은 쇠물푸레와 신갈나무, 관목층은 철쭉꽃과 진달래가 우점하였다. 4개 군집의 종다양도는 0.4320~0.9487(단위면적: 400$m^2$)로 낮은 상태이었으며 군집간 유사성이 높았다. 생육밀도 분석결과 흉고단면적은 평균흉고직경 이 작은 군집일수록 낮았으며, 평균흉고직경, 개체수, 최단거 리 간의 회귀분석결과 생육거리(m) = 0.0934$\times$흉고직경(cm)+0.6117, 개체수=242.47$\times$흉고직경(cm)$^{-1.1009}$, 생육거리=9.643$\times$개체수$^{-0.7016}$이었다. 아울러 본 군집들은 수령 30~50년생, 낙엽층 두께 0.5~2.5cm, 관목피도율 20% 정도로 송이생육에 적합한 것으로 판단되었다.

The data used to develop distance-independent individual models for natural mixed forests were collected from 712 remeasured permanent sample plots (25,526 trees) of 10-year periodic from 1990 to 2000 in Baihe Forest Bureau of Changbai Mountains, northeast China. Based on analyzing relationship between diameter increment of individual trees with tree size, competitive status, and site condition, the diameter growth models for individual trees of 15 species growing in mixed-species uneven-aged forest stands, that have simple form, good predicting precision, and easily applicable, were developed using stepwise regression method. The main variables influencing on diameter increment of individual trees were tree size and competition, however, the site conditions were not significantly related with diameter increment. The tree size variables (lnDBH and $DBH^2$) were the most significant and important predictors of diameter growth existing in all 15 growth models. The diameter increment was directly proportional to tree diameter for each species. For the competitive factors in growth model, the relative diameter (RD), canopy closure (P), and the ratio of diameter of subject tree with maximum diameter (DDM) were contributed to the diameter increment at a certain extent. Other measures of stand density, such as basal area of stand (G) and stand density index (SDI), were not significantly influenced on diameter increment. Site factors, such as site index, slope and aspect were not important to diameter increment and excluded in the final models. The total variance explained by the final models of squared diameter increment ($R^2$) for all 15 species ranged from 35% to 72% and these results compared quit closely with those of Wykoff (1990) for mixed conifer stands. Using independent data set, validation measures were evaluated for predicting models of diameter increment developed in this study. The result indicated that the estimated precision was all greater than 94% and the models were suitable to describe diameter increment.

This study quantified the carbon storage and uptake by street trees in Seoul and explored suitable planting and management strategies. A systematic sampling model was used to select 50 plots to survey the structures of street trees. The average density and cover of street trees were approximately 5.8 trees/$100m^2$ and 12.1%, respectively. Trees with a dbh of less than 30 cm accounted for about 66.3% of the total number of trees surveyed. The total carbon storage and uptake by the street trees were approximately 103,641 t and 10,992 t/yr, respectively. The total carbon uptake equaled the amount of annual carbon emissions from driving of about 11,000 cars. Street tree planting and management strategies were proposed to enhance carbon uptake. They included multi-layered and multi-aged planting, securing ground and space for plant growth, and avoiding excessive tree pruning.

Background and objective: Urban street trees play an important role in carbon reduction in cities where greenspace is scarce. There are ongoing studies on carbon reduction by street trees. However, information on the carbon reduction capacity of street trees based on field surveys is still limited. This study aimed to quantify carbon uptake and storage by urban street trees and suggest a method to improve planting of trees in order to increase their carbon reduction capacity. Methods: The cities selected were Sejong, Chungju, and Jeonju among cities without research on carbon reduction, considering the regional distribution in Korea. In the cities, 155 sample sites were selected using systematic sampling to conduct a field survey on street environments and planting structures. The surveyed data included tree species, diameter at breast height (DBH), diameter at root collar (DRC), height, crown width, and vertical structures. The carbon uptake and storage per tree were calculated using the quantification models developed for the urban trees of each species. Results: The average carbon uptake and storage of street trees were approximately 7.2 ± 0.6 kg/tree/yr and 87.1 ± 10.2 kg/tree, respectively. The key factors determining carbon uptake and storage were tree size, vertical structure, the composition of tree species, and growth conditions. The annual total carbon uptake and storage were approximately 1,135.8 tons and 22,737.8 tons, respectively. The total carbon uptake was about the same amount as carbon emitted by 2,272 vehicles a year. Conclusion: This study has significance in providing the basic unit to quantify carbon uptake and storage of street trees based on field surveys. To improve the carbon reduction capacity of street trees, it is necessary to consider planning strategies such as securing and extending available grounds and spaces for high-density street trees with a multi-layered structure.

The study area, Kwangneung Experiment Forest (KEF) is located on the west-central portion of Korean peninsula and belongs to a cool-temperate broadleaved forest zone. At the old-growth deciduous forest near Soribong-peak (533.1m) in KEF, we have established a permanent plot and a flux tower, and the site was registered as a KLTER site and also a KoFlux site. In this study, we aimed to present basic ecological characteristics and synthetic data of carbon budgets and flows, and some monitoring data which are essential for providing important parameters and validation data for the forest dynamics models or biogeochemical dynamics models to predict or interpolate spatially the changes in forest ecosystem structure and function. We made a stemmap of trees in 1 ha plot and analyzed forest stand structure and physical and chemical soil characteristics, and estimated carbon budgets by forest components (tree biomass, soils, litter and so on). Dominant tree species were Quercus serrata and Carpinus laxiflora, and accompanied by Q. aliena, Carpinus cordata, and so on. As a result of a field survey of the plot, density of the trees larger than 2cm in DBH was 1,473 trees per ha, total biomass 261.2 tons/ha, and basal area 28.0 m2/ha. Parent rock type is granite gneiss. Soil type is brown forest soil (alfisols in USDA system), and the depth is from 38 to 66cm. Soil texture is loam or sandy loam, and its pH was from 4.2 to 5.0 in the surface layer, and from 4.8 to 5.2 in the subsurface layer. Seasonal changes in LAI were measured by hemispherical photography at the l.2m height, and the maximum was 3.65. And the spatial distributions of volumetric soil moisture contents and LAIs of the plot were measured. Litterfall was collected in circular littertraps (collecting area： 0.25m2) and mass loss rates and nutrient release patterns in decomposing litter were estimated using the litterbag technique employing 30cm30cm nylon bags with l.5mm mesh size. Total annual litterfall was 5,627 kg/ha/year and leaf litter accounted for 61% of the litterfall. The leaf litter quantity was highest in Quercus serrata, followed by Carpinus laxiflora and C. cordata, etc. Mass loss from decomposing leaf litter was more rapid in C. laxiflora and C. cordata than in Q. serrata litter. About 77% of C. laxiflora and 84% of C. cordata litter disappeared, while about 48% in Q. serrata litter lost over two years. The carbon pool in living tree biomass including below ground biomass was 136 tons C/ha, and 5.6 tons C/ha is stored in the litter layer, and about 92.0 tons C/ha in the soil to the 30cm in depth. Totally more than about 233.6 tons C/ha was stored in DK site. And then we have drawn a schematic diagram of carbon budgets and flows in each compartment of the KEF site.
