  • This study was carried out to introduce current status and development strategy for an environmental restoration of stream side in Japan, and to consider a methodology which could be effectively applied for the environmental restoration of stream side in Korea. The strategy prospects of environmental restoration in Japan were summarized as follows: 1. We should establish a new paradigm of forest road, forest conservation and erosion control which can emphasize the restoration of the streamside ecosystem and reduce the effects of soil movement change in the areas. And we should maintain the biotic habitats to conserve native biotic community when we practice forest road, forest conservation and erosion control works. 2. In the point of view ecological conservation aspects, we should evaluate the effects of new forest conservation and erosion control methods which is emphasized on the restoration of the streamside ecosystem to apply desirable methodology to the environmental restoration of the streamside area. 3. In the past, the objective of forest conservation and erosion control was to fix a soil by construction of permanent structures. Whereas, the direction of future's forest conservation and erosion control needs to change new forest conservation and erosion control technology to prevent large scale soil movement but allow small scale soil movement to conserve sound ecosystem and biotic habitats. 4. The restoration of the streamside ecosystem should provide continuity of the streamside environment which allows desirable biological habitats, and environmentally sound facilities to harmonize the environment.

  • In this study, we investigated the effect of seed collection stage and alternating temperature on the germination of Deutzia paniculata (Hydrangeaceae). The seeds were collected from naturally growing D. paniculata populations in Mt. Palgong, Gyeonsangbuk-do, Korea every two weeks over a three month period from August through October, 2014, totaling five collections. We examined seed characteristics such as seed size (length and width) and weight, and germination percentages for each collection stage under four different germination temperature regimes. We also examined germination after 30 and 60 days of cold moist stratification. Each collection phase had a different germination percentage and the lowest germination percentage was observed in the seeds from phase I (average GP of 15.7%). The germination percentage was similar at the later collection phases and in the higher temperatures suggesting that later collection times and higher temperatures are optimal for D. paniculata germination. We found that the optimum collection stage with high viability and germination percentage of for D. paniculata was during the middle of the September.

  • 삼림의 급격한 황폐화의 원인은 지구 환경의 악화와 무분별한 목재 자원의 남벌에 있다. 이러한 대규모의 삼림자원의 파괴에 의해 사라져가는 삼림 면적의 크기도 중요하지만 그에 못지 않게 그 안에 들어있는 식물종이 감소되어 가고 멸종되어 가는 것이 더욱 큰 문제가 된다. 이러한 종의 감소나 멸종이 가시적인 것이라고 한다면 종내의 유전변이의 감소는 눈에 보이지는 않지만 진화과정에 있어서 종을 유지하는데 필수적인 유전자 변이 폭이 좁아지기 때문에 매우 심각한 문제가 된다. 재배작물에 있어서 유전자 보존은 육종을 위한 측면에서 중요한 연구분야로 인식되어 왔다. 그러나 야생종인 삼림의 경우에는 현재 인간이 육종에 필요한 최소한의 개체만 유지 보존함으로써 유전변이가 심하게 축소되어 지속적으로 생존 진화할 수 있는 기본적 유전자 변이를 잃어버리게 될 위험에 처할 수 있기 때문에 삼림의 유전자보존이 절대적으로 필요한 것이다. 현재의 삼림 유전자 보존 정책은 현지보존, 현지외 보존, 시설내 보존으로 나누어 수행하고 있는데 아직도 그 방법이 확정되어 있지 않아서 많은 시행착오를 거듭하고 있다. 특히 광범위하게 분포되어 있는 같은 종의 삼림내 임목들간의 유전자변이를 조사 분석할 적당한 방법이 없으며 (동위효소변이에 많은 것을 의존하고 있으나 동위효소변이만으로 충분하지 못하다), 현지보존의 경우에도 얼마나 큰 집단을 또 어떤 행태로 보존해야 하는가에 대한 집단유전학적 이론 정립이 완전하지 못하다. 또한 현지외 보존의 경우 현지보존림의 유전변이를 빠짐없이 포함되도록 조성해야 할 구체적인 방법을 알지 못하고 있는 실정에 있다. 시설내 보존의 경우 종자 보관이나 화분 보관과 같은 기술적인 것은 재배작물의 방법을 적용하면 되지만 어떤 집단의 종자나 화분을 채집 보관해야 하는지에 대한 집단유전학적 근거가 아직 확실히 마련되고 있지 않다. 시설내 보존인 경우 기왕에 육종에 의해 선발된 개체를 유전자형(개체) 상태로 보존함으로써 부가가치를 높일 수 있을 것이며, 이러한 연구는 새롭게 개발되고 있는 조직배양 및 유전공학적 기법을 이용하므로써 발전할 수 있는 여지가 많은 연구 분야이다. 현지보존의 경우 유전자 보존만의 목적으로 조성된 삼림뿐만 아니라 다른 목적으로 보호 받고 있는 많은 삼림, 예를 들면 국립, 도립공원, 보안림, 노거수 등에 대한 적절한 생태유전학적인 연구를 통하여 유전자원으로 이용할 수 있는 방법이 강구되어야 하며, 현지외 보존의 경우에도 유전자원 보존림의 조성 뿐만 아니라 임목육종과정에서 기 조성되어 있는 채종원, 산지시험림, 차대검정림, 클론보존원 등에 대해서도 적절한 유전학적 연구 조사를 수행함으로써 현지외 유전자 보존림으로 이용할 수 있게 될 것이다.

  • The study aims to establish a direction for forest ecological restoration by classifying forest types and understanding the ecological characteristics of the Uljin forest area damaged by a large fire in 2022. Hierarchical cluster analysis and indicator species analysis were conducted on 78 survey plots located in the forest fire-affected area, and four forest cover types were derived: P. densiflora pure forests, P. densiflora dominant forests, mixed broad-leaved forests, and Q. variabilis dominant forests. As a result of visually comparing changes in forest types before and after forest fire damage, by classifying data according to whether or not upper dead trees are included, it was confirmed that pine forests, which have a high proportion of pine trees, spread widely due to forest fire damage. However, broad-leaved mixed forests and oyster oak dominant forests showed characteristics of maintaining concentration, indicating that pine forests were severely damaged. As a result of the important value analysis, during the process of natural recovery after a forest fire, the species that appear early in the lower layer are the sprouts of existing species such as Quercus mongolica Fisch. ex Ledeb., Quercus variabilis Blume, Fraxinus sieboldiana Blume, Rhododendron mucronulatum Turcz. The distribution of diameter at breast height by forest cover type showed that among areas with extreme forest fire damage, the proportion of dead trees was relatively high and structural changes were large in P. densiflora pure forests and P. densiflora dominant forests where pine trees had a high distribution ratio. However, if continuous monitoring is carried out in the future with reference to the results of this study and plant data is collected and analyzed from a mid- to long-term perspective, it is believed that it will be used as useful data to promote forest ecological restoration projects in forest fire-affected areas.

  • This study was carried out to analyze water cycle characteristics and evaluate water retention function in Jeju Gotjawal forest from 2013 to 2017. The average ratio of throughfall, stemflow, interception loss in Seonhul Gotjawal (SH) and Cheongsu Gotjawal (CS) was 43.1%, 15.8%, and 41.1%, respectively. Rainfall-throughfall, rainfall-stemflow, and rainfall-interception loss were expressed as linear regression equation (p<0.001). The comparison results showed that SH was higher than CS (p<0.05), indicating that the canopy area had an important effect on the difference in stand structure. The average water resources retention rate of the Gotjawal region was 41.9%, which is similar to the total water resources retention rate (40.6%) of Jeju Special Self-Governing Province (JSSGP). Currently, the development of Gotjawal is in progress in JSSGP. The development of Gotjawal will lead to a decrease in the water resources retention rate due to changes in the surface environment such as an increase in impervious areas, which will affect the total groundwater content of JSSGP. Therefore, the conservation of the Gotjawal area is judged to be very important from the point of view of water conservation.

  • Calamus andamanicus Kurz is one of the commercially important solitary rattans endemic to Andaman and Nicobar islands. The habitat suitability modeling program, MaxEnt, was used to predict the potential ecological niches of this species, based on bioclimatic variables. The study revealed high potential distribution of C. andamanicus across both Andaman and Nicobar islands. Of the 33 spatially unique points, 21 points were recorded from South and North Andamans and 12 from Great Nicobar Islands. The islands like Little Andaman, North Sentinel, Little Nicobar, Tllangchong, Teressa were also predicted positive even though this rattan is not recorded from these islands. Mean diurnal range, higher precipitation in the wettest month of the year, annual precipitation and precipitation in the driest month are the main predictors of this species distribution.

  • This study was carried out to lead the scientific management of the urban forest by estimating the forest environment. Forest environmental information was constructed using IDRISI system based on survey data, soil, plant, and digital elevation data. Forest environmental information was consisted of soil depth, soil organic content, soil hardness and parent rock as a soil environmental factor, and forest community, tree age, crown density as a plant environmental factor. Plant activity and topographic environment also were analyzed by using remote sensing data and digital elevation data. Environmental function of urban forest was estimated based on results of soil conservation and forest productivity. 70% of urban forest is located in elevation of lower than 200m and 55% of forest area have the slope of lower than 15 degree. Analyzed soil conservation status and forest productivity were almost the same as the soil chemical properties of collected soil sample and the vegetation index estimated using remote sensing data, respectively. Thus, the constructed forest environmental information could be useful to give some ideas for management of urban forest ecosystem and establishment of environmental conservation planning, including forests, in Taejon. The best forest environmental function was appeared at the natural ecology preservation zone. Current natural parks and urban parks were appeared to establish the environmental conservation plan for further development. The worst forest environmental function was appeared at the forest near to the industrial area and an overall and systematic plan was required for the soil management and high forest productivity because these forest was developing a severe soil acidification and having a low forest productivity.

  • This study was conducted to determine the changes in soil chemical properties and the growth of seedling according to the different dredged soil improving methods at slope of Saemangeum sea dike. Undersea dredged soil was improved by five different methods. Seedlings of Ulmus davidiana var. japonica, Chionanthus retusa, Celtis sinensis, and Pinus thunbergii were planted after 9 month of experience site installation, then soil pH, NaCl concentration in soil, soil organic matter (SOM), and survival rate and height of seedling was measured. Initial soil pH was highest in the control plot but it decreased to the similar level with other soil improving plots after 35 months. There were no differences in NaCl concentration between the control and soil improving plots, and it showed decreasing tendency during the study period. In the control plot, initial SOM was lowest among that of other plots during the study period. The survival rate of 36 months after planting of P. thunbergii was highest among the species. The gap of the tree growth of P. thunbergii between the control plot and the soil improving plots was small, however, other species showed relatively higher tree height in the soil improving plots than the control plots. Creation forest with P. thunbergii might be a cost effective afforestation in coastal reclaimed land since it rarely needs additional improvement of dredged soil.
