A new mixed-effects model was developed that predicts individual-tree total height for Pinus densiflora trees in Gangwon province as a function of individual-tree diameter (cm). The mixed-effects model contains two random-effects parameters. Maximum likelihood estimation was used to fit the model to 560 height-diameter observations of individual trees measured throughout Gwangwon province in 2007 as part of the National Forest Inventory Program in Korea. The new model is an improvement over fixed-effects models because it can be calibrated to a local area, such as an inventory plot or individual stand. The new model also appears to be an improvement over the Forest Resources Evaluation and Prediction Program for the ten calibration trees used in this study. An example is provided that describes how to estimate the random-effects parameters using ten calibration trees.

본 연구는 2006년부터 시작된 국가산림자원조사부터 표본점 설계방법과 적용 단목재적식을 변경하여 적용함으로써 과거와는 다른 임목축적 추정치의 경향을 보이고 있어 그 원인을 구명하기 위해 수행하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 20개 집락의 80개 표본점을 대상으로 제4차 및 제5차 국가산림자원조사의 표본점 설계방법에 따라 자료를 수집한 후, 현재 사용하고 있는 수종별 단목재적식과 과거에 사용하였던 단목재적식을 적용하여 임목축적을 추정한 후 표본점 설계 방법 및 적용 단목재적식의 변경에 따른 임목축적 추정치의 차이가 있는지를 평가하였다. 임목축적 차이의 원인을 구명하기 위해 t-검정을 실시한 결과 표본점 설계방법의 변경에 따른 임목축적의 차이는 인정되지 않았으며, 사용된 단목재적식의 변경에 의해서 통계적으로 인정할 수 있는 임목축적의 차이가 발생하는 것으로 분석되었다. 결과적으로 제5차 국가산림자원조사를 통해 얻어지는 임목축적은 적용 단목재적식의 변경에 의해 차이가 발생하기 때문에, 국제기구에 보고하기 위해서는 재계산을 통해 2006년 이전의 임목축적 추정치의 보정이 필요할 것으로 평가되었다.

Interests in ecosystem services have increased and a number of attempts to perform a quantitative valuation on them have been undertaken. To classify the ecosystem types landcover classification maps are generally used. However, some forest types on landcover classification maps have a number of errors. The purpose of this study is to verify the forest types on the landcover map by using a variety of field survey data and to suggest an improved method for forest type classifications. Forest types are compared by overlaying the landcover classification map with the 4th forest type map, and then they are verified by using National Forest Inventory, 3rd National Ecosystem Survey and field survey data. Misclassifications of forest types are found on the forest on the forest type map and farm and other grassland on the landcover map. Some errors of forest types occur at Daegu, Busan and Ulsan metropolitan cities and Gangwon province. The results of accuracy in comprehensive classification show that deciduous forest is 76.1%; coniferous forest is 54.0%; and mixed forest is 22.2%. In order to increase the classification accuracy of forest types a number of remote sensing images during various time periods should be used and the survey period of NFI and the National Forest Inventory and National Ecosystem Survey should be consistent. Also, examining areas with wide forest patch should be prioritized during the field survey in order to decrease any errors.

This study was conducted to estimate carbon stock and uptake for Larix kaempferi Lamb., the single species, which is the most widely distributed one following Pinus densiflora, using data from 6th national forest inventory and forest type map of 1:5,000. Overall distribution area of Larix kaempferi in South Korea was shown as 272,800ha, in detail, Gangwon-do was the most widely distributed region with 39.6% (108,141 ha) of the whole forest area, and Gyeongsangbuk-do was 18.6%(50,839 ha), Chungcheongbuk-do was 15.1%(41,205ha) in order. As the results of analysis in carbon stock and uptake for each province, the values were high with Gyeonggi-do 109.0 tC/ha, $10.3tCO_2/ha/yr$, Gangwon-do 349.1 tC/ha, $9.7tCO_2/ha/yr$ in order, and Jeollabuk-do was the lowest with 78.3 tC/ha, $7.6tCO_2/ha/yr$. Also, the results of estimation in total carbon stocks and uptakes by year (1989~2015) were turned out that total carbon stocks and uptakes were 24,891 thousand tC, $2,428thousand\;tCO_2$ in 2015, increasing about 4.8 times and 3.8 times each compared with 5,238 thousand C/ha, $640thousand\;CO_2$ in 1989. Although forest area was decreased 26.6% with 371,884 ha in 1989 to 272,800 ha in 2015, carbon stocks and uptakes were increased in 2015 in that forest stock was increased 126% compared to 1989.

According to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), all parties have to submit the national GHG inventory report. Estimating carbon stocks and changes in Land Use, Land-Use Changes and Forestry (LULUCF) needs an activity data and emission factors. So this study was conducted to develop carbon emission factor for Robinia pseudoacacia L., Betula platyphylla var. japonica, and Liriodendron tulipifera. As a result, the basic wood density ($g/cm_3$) was 0.64 for R. pseudoacacia, 0.55 for B. platyphylla, and 0.46 for L. tulipifera. Biomass expansion factor was 1.47 for R. pseudoacacia, 1.30 for B. platyphylla, and 1.24 for L. tulipifera. Root to shoot ratio was 0.48 for R. pseudoacacia, 0.29 for B. platyphylla, and 0.23 for L. tulipifera. Uncertainty of estimated emission factors on three species ranged from 3.39% to 27.43% within recommended value (30%) by IPCC. We calculated carbon stock and change using these emission factors. Three species stored carbon in forest and net $CO_2$ removal was $1,255,398\;t\;CO_2/yr$ during 5 years. So we concluded that our result could be used as emission factors for national GHG inventory report on forest sector.

This study was carried out to analyze annual diameter growth characteristics for major 11 tree species using the data for Gangwon province of the National Forest Resources Inventory in 2007. The annual diameter growth of coniferous species was 5.02 mm, 4.70 mm, and 3.90 mm in Korean white pine, Japanese larch, and Korean red pine, respectively. In growths of the deciduous trees, dogwood, basswood, and cork oak had 3.55 mm, 3.48 mm and 3.01 mm, respectively. Average of the annual diameter growths for all species was 3.38 mm. The relationship between diameter growth and age class showed that the growth rate decreased for all species as age increased. The age class II had the highest annual diameter rate. In relation of the stand density(trees per hectare) and diameter growth, the diameter growth tended to decrease as the stand density increased for most species, especially Korean white pine, cork oak, and basswood. Finally age had the highest value in the correlation coefficients between measurement factor and growth rate regardless of species.

북한 산림황폐화를 방지하기 위한 남북한 협력 수단으로 REDD 메커니즘의 적용 가능성을 사전 검토하였다. 북한은 기후변화협약이 국가 단위의 REDD+ 메커니즘의 이행 조건으로 요구한 REDD+ 국가 전략 수립과 산림모니터링 시스템 등을 구비하지 못하였다. 또한 북한은 REDD 메커니즘을 적용하기 위한 토대인 산림자원 통계의 신뢰성 역시 부족하였다. 인공위성 영상자료를 활용하여 추정한 산림면적 자료를 제외한 대부분의 산림자원 통계는 신뢰할만한 산림조사 결과를 바탕으로 하지 않고 단순한 가정을 기초로 추정된 것이다. 이러한 검토 결과는 북한이 산림황폐지 복구 수단으로 REDD 메커니즘을 당장 적용할 수 없다는 것을 보여준다. 이를 바탕으로 향후 REDD 메커니즘을 북한에 적용하기 위한 연구 주제와 남북한 산림부문의 협력 의제를 제안하였다. (1) 최소한 2000년 이후 북한지역의 토지이용변화 탐지, 탄소축적변화 추정 및 산림전용 산림황폐화의 원인 구명 연구가 필요하다. (2) 남북한의 REDD+ 협력은 북한의 'REDD+ 국가 전략 수립' 및 '국가산림조사 체계 구축' 부문에 초점을 맞추어야 한다.

기후변화에 대응하기 위해 산림의 탄소저장 능력을 정량적으로 이해하기 위한 연구가 국내외적으로 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지상부바이오매스의 공간적 분포현황을 제공하기 위해 국가산림자원조사 표본점 단위로 계산된 지상부바이오매스를 임상도를 이용하여 공간규모를 확장(upscaling)하는 기법을 개발하고자 한다. 이를 위해 국가산림자원조사 자료를 이용하여 우세/준우세목 수고와 수관 밀도를 설명변수로 하는 지상부바이오매스 회귀모델과 영급을 설명변수로 하는 우세/준우세목 수고 회귀모델을 개발하였다. 그리고 이 회귀모델들과 임상도 속성정보(수종, 수관밀도, 영급)을 결합하여 지상부 바이오매스 공간분포를 추정하였다. 그 결과 단양군 산림의 지상부바이오매스는 6,606,324 ton으로 추정되었고, 표본점 기반 통계에 의한 추정치와 유의적인 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 임상도를 활용하는 본 기법은 손쉽게 대면적에 대한 바이오매스를 추정하는 장점이 있는 반면, 임상도의 주요 속성이 범주형이기 때문에 산림바이오매스 공간 변이의 세밀한 추정에는 한계가 있었다.

Bhutanese forests have been well preserved and can sequester the atmospheric carbon (C). In spite of its importance, understanding Bhutanese forest C dynamics was very limited due to the lack of available data. However, forest C model can simulate forest C dynamics with comparatively limited data and references. In this study, we aimed to simulate Bhutanese forest C dynamics at 6 plots with the Forest Biomass and Dead organic matter Carbon (FBDC) model, which can simulate forest C cycles with small amount of input data. The total forest C stock ($Mg\;C\;ha^{-1}$) ranged from 118.35 to 200.04 with an average of 168.41. The C stocks ($Mg\;C\;ha^{-1}$) in biomass, litter, dead wood, and mineral soil were 3.40-88.13, 4.24-24.95, 1.99-20.31, 91.45-97.90, respectively. On average, the biomass, litter, dead wood, and mineral soil accounted for 36.0, 5.5, 2.5, and 56.0% of the total C stocks, respectively. Although our modeling approach was applied at a small pilot scale, it exhibited a potential to report Bhutanese forest C inventory with reliable methodology. In order to report the national forest C inventory, field work for major tree species and forest types in Bhutan are required.
