  • 본 연구는 강원도 평창 지역의 천연 활엽수림을 대상으로 입지유형별 임분의 생장 특성과 생태적 특성을 구명함으로써 각 임분 특성에 맞는 산림관리 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 연구 대상지를 방위, 해발고도, 지형 조건에 따라 36개의 입지유형으로 구분하고 각 입지유형별로 직경 생장량과 직경 생장률 그리고 Shannon-Wither의 다양성지수, 균재도, 풍부도를 파악하여 임분의 생장 특성과 생태적 특성을 비교 분석하였으며, 이를 근거로 산림관리 방안을 제시하였다. 임분의 생장 특성은 방위에 따라서는 동쪽 사면과 서쪽 사면이, 해발고도에 따라서는 서쪽 사면을 제외하고는 해발고도가 낮아짐에 따라, 그리고 지형 조건에 따라서는 사면과 계곡이 양호한 생장 상태를 유지하고 있었다. 생태적 특성은 적정한 습도 조건을 유지할 수 있는 지역으로 방위별로는 북쪽 사면과 서쪽 사면, 지형 조건별로는 계곡의 종 다양성이 높게 나타난 반면 해발고도에 따른 일정한 경향은 찾아볼 수 없었다. 입지유형별 산림관리 방안은 남쪽 사면과 동쪽 사면의 경우 임목 생장과 생태적 특성을 함께 고려한 무육작업이 필요한 반면 서쪽 사면과 북쪽 사면은 생장 촉진을 위주로 한 밀도조절이 필요한 것으로 파악되었다. 해발고도에 따라서는 저지대는 생태적 특성을 고려한 무육관리가 필요하며, 고지대와 중지대는 직경 생장률이 2% 미만인 지역에 대해서는 생장 촉진을 위한 무육작업이 시급한 것으로 나타났다. 한편 지형 조건에 따라서는 남쪽 사면의 중지대와 고지대를 제외하고는 계곡의 생태적 안정성이 기장 양호한 것으로 나타나 친환경적 경영에 가장 적합한 지역으로 평가되었다.

  • 이 연구는 가래나무의 조림에 대한 성적평가와 개선대책을 마련하고자, 강원도 홍천군 내면지역에 1979-1982년에 대규모의 활엽수 조림단지를 조성했던 지역의 가래나무 조림지와 천연림으로 비교적 생장이 양호한 평창군 진부면 지역의 물푸레나무와 가래나무가 많은 활엽수림에 대한 임분구조 및 직경생장을 조사, 비교하였다. 조림 후 9년까지의 직경생장에 가래나무 임분기원간 통계적 유의차가 인정되었다. 천연림의 가래나무의 연평균직경성장량은 7.31mm/year로 최대값이었으며, 다음으로 맹아림에서는 6.93mm/year, 조림지 에서는 5.28mm/year로 최소값을 보였다. 조림한 가래나무의 초기의 직경생장이 맹아갱신된 나무나 천연생의 나무보다 지극히 낮다는 것은 가래나무 나근묘의 식재는 성적이 매우 불량함을 나타낸다고 판단된다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때, 가래나무림 갱신에서는 맹아, 천연하종, 직파조림 등의 다른 갱신법들도 적극 검토할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.

  • Since the demands not only for value-added timber but the environmental functions of forests had been increased, native tree species has been, and is rapidly being replaced by foreign tree species in many parts of the world. However, the studies on population structure and regeneration characteristics of native tree species were not conducted enough. Regeneration of Kalopanax septemlobus growing among other hardwoods in natural forests is very difficult because of its low seed viability and germination rate. The study examined the distribution of mature trees of K. septemlobus and their regeneration pattern at the 1.12 ha study plot in natural deciduous broad-leaved forest of Mt. Jeombong. The density and mean DBH of K. septemlobus was 97 trees per ha and 32 cm, respectively. The spatial distribution of K. septemlobus showed a random pattern (aggregation index is 0.935) in the 1.12 ha study plot. The age of 90 trees among 99 sample trees of K. septemlobus ranged from 90 to 110 years and represented a single cohort, thus suggesting that K. septemlobus in advance regeneration has regenerated as a result of disturbances such as canopy opening.

  • To understand natural regeneration and stand development after fire in mixed broadleaved-coniferous forests of Sikhote-Alin Mountains, ten sample plots of $50m{\times}50m$ size were established in 1975 and 1983 at the stands burned by wildfires in 1973 and 1982, respectively. And, the number of naturally regenerated seedlings were monitored in two $50m{\times}4m$ subplots in each plot. The most fire-sensitive conifer species is Abies nephrolepis, while Betula costata is the most fire-sensitive broadleaved tree species. The most fire-resistant species were Q. mongolica, T. taquetii and A. mono. The results of 20 and 30 years after the fire showed that pioneer tree species, e.g. Populus, Salix, and Betula, were regenerated immediately at the early stage of stand development and grew where there is a mono canopy layer with high density. On the other hand, the densities of successors, e.g. Pinus koraiensis, Picea jezoensis, Abies nephrolepis, Acer mono and Tilia taquetii, which were present in the study plots before the fire, increased gradually. Naturally regenerated tree species after forest fire by the growth rate were divided into three groups according to their annual height growth. The seral tree species (Betula costata, Betula platyphylla, Padus maackii, Populus tremula and Sarix caprea) belong to the first group and have the highest growth rate (from 40 to 96 cm per year). The late successional broad-leaved trees (Tilia taquetii, Acer mono and Quercus mongolica) belong to the second group and have intermediate annual height growth (from 3.7 to 13.5 cm per year). The late successional coniferous species (Picea jezoensis, Pinus koraiensis and Abies nephrolepis) form the third group and have the least annual height growth (from 1.4 to 3.5 cm per year).

  • We investigated leaf disease intensity of Kalopanax septemlobus (prickly castor oil tree) caused by the parasitic fungus Mycosphaerella acanthopanacis, in thirty natural host populations in the Japanese Archipelago. The disease intensity observed for individual trees were analyzed using a generalized additive model as a function of tree size, tree density, climatic terms and spatial trend surface. Individual tree size and conspecific tree density were shown to have significant negative and positive effects on disease intensity, respectively. The findings suggest that the probability of disease infection is partly determined by dispersal of infection agents (ascospores) from the fallen leaves on the ground, which can be enhanced by aggregation of host trees in a forest stand. Regional-scale spatial bias was also present in disease intensity; the populations in northern Japan and southern Kyushu were more severely infected by the fungus than those in southwestern Honshu and Shikoku. Regional variation of disease intensity was explained by both climatic factors and a trend surface term, with a latitudinal cline detected, which increases towards the north. Further research should be conducted in order to understand all of the factors generating the latitudinal cline detected in this study.

  • Approximately 67% of the total land area of the Korea is covered by forest. Eutrophication, defined as the enrichment of waters beyond natural levels, principally by the nutrient phosphorus (P), is a serious cause of concern at the present time. The contribution of forestry to P loading in catchment waters has not been intensively studied in Korea, but is potentially important because forests are often located in near-pristine environments. Phosphorus is retained by most mineral soils and, as a consequence, losses are usually negligible. However, it is much more mobile in organic soils where it can be relatively easily leached or lost through surface runoff, as these soils have a low capacity to retain free phosphate. This report has been prepared to study the influence of arable land used for paddy, upland, and forestry on water quality in the basin of Daechung reservoir.

  • It has long been recognized that wild vegetation are sort of improving fitness. Many peoples are now ingesting them instead of the vegetables that are grown in green house. In this regard, Parasenecio firmus, which is considered to be one of the rare species in Korea, has been given a lot of attentions as edible green plants recently. Hence it may be necessary to provide the information people who want to commercially cultivate the plants. Regarding appropriate forest stands that are fit for the cultivation. Firstly, we collected the seeds from 4 natural habitats to find out how many seeds are fully matured in the natural conditions. The quality of the seeds collected were found to be very low. However, it appeared as clear differences when screened seeds were grown in covered seed beds over winter. In this case the germination rate of the seeds was 95%, indicating that there may be no difficulty for mass production of plantlets. Secondly, in the field of planting test in an appropriate cultivating site among 6 of forest stands, those in Pinus koraiensis stand were the highest in survival rate, but somewhat low with those in Quercus mongolica and broad-leaved stands. Thus, it was demonstrated that forest stands dominated with conifer like P. koraiensis are more appropriate for the cultivation of P. firums.

  • We evaluated the carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) status of litterfall in a natural red pine (Pinus densiflora) stand damaged by pine wilt disease in Jinju City, which was one of the areas severely affected by the disease in Korea. A significant correlation (P < 0.05) was found between tree density and basal area and the C and N status of litterfall components, but C and N status was not correlated with mean diameter at breast height in the pine wilt disease stands. Needle-litter C and N concentrations were linearly related (P < 0.05) to basal area in pine wilt disease stands. Needle-litter C concentration decreased with a decrease in damage intensity due to pine wilt disease, whereas litter N concentration increased with an increase of basal area in pine wilt disease stands. The linear regression equations developed for litterfall C and N inputs were significant (P < 0.05), with basal area accounting for 50-86% of the variation, except for cone and flower litter. The results indicated that the incidence of pine wilt disease could impact the quality and quantity of C and N in litterfall of pine stands suffering from pine wilt disease.

  • The continuous release of nutrient sources into natural water resource can be a continuing problem in eutrophication, as well as severe reductions in water quality. However, any desirable measure is not developed yet even though so many researches and efforts have been done to solve this problem. Forest as one of troublesome nonpoint sources may contributes most to nutrient loading, but the loading of N and P from forest in order to grasp the eutrophication potential of nonpoint sources has not been evaluated. The nutrient sources from the organic litter accumulated on the surface of forest soils can be a critical factor in continuity of eutrophication of a lake. The decomposition rate of litter can be estimated to predict release of N and P from the forest stand. The loss rate of nitrogen is complicated but depends in part upon the physical matrix of the element. Therefore, long-term nutrient budget and flux estimates at stand would be useful tools in calculating potential nutrient fluxes into the watercourses in a sustainable way. The present investigation can give insight to the actual situation of the eutrophication potentials of forest as the practical nonpoint sources.
