본 연구는 난대산림연구소의 제주시험림에 있는 붉가시나무(Quercus acuta)에 대한 개체목의 수간곡선식 추정 및 간재적을 추정하기 위하여 수행되었다. 최적의 추정식을 선택하기 위하여 Max and Burkhart식, Kozak식 및 Lee식을 적용하여 각 식의 직경 추정에 대한 검정 통계량 및 실측치와 추정치간의 오차분포를 검증하였다. 그 결과 Max and Burkhart식 및 Lee식이 특정 구간에서 과대치 또는 과소 추정치를 보인데 반하여 Kozak식은 전구간에서 고른 분포를 보였다. 추정력이 가장 좋은 Kozak식을 활용하여 수피포함 재적표를 작성하였다.

Background: Natural regeneration of seedlings as well as saplings of Korean fir has been significantly impacted by the browsing from the early stages of their development, potentially, by roe deer for the last two to three decades at the study site since late 1980s. This study was carried out to investigate current status of the disturbance in the seedling development of Korean fir (Abies koreana) on Mt. Hallasan, Jeju Island, Korea. Methods: Field survey was carried out during June and August in 2016 to measure the characteristics of study site and understory vegetation by applying systematic sampling to 125 plots of $5m{\times}5m$ quadrat located on eastern slope of the mountain. Correlation and regression analyses were applied to the variables quantified from the data sets using the SAS software. Results: No saplings with their diameters at breast heights smaller than 5.0 cm were found at the study site indicating the serious disturbance in the natural regeneration of Korean fir at the study site. No seedlings with their heights taller than 36.0 cm were found at the study site indicating even more serious disturbance during earlier stage of the natural regeneration of Korean fir at the study site. A total of 616 individuals of the seedlings of Korean fir were found at 54 out of 125 sampling plots. One hundred thirty-eight seedlings (22.4%) out of 616 individual seedlings have the vestiges for being grazed, potentially, by roe deer. Conclusions: Due considerations should be given to the effects of browsing of the seedlings by roe deer to promote the natural regeneration of Korean fir, ultimately to restore Korean fir. It is needed for the managers of the forest to install fences around the forest area. Exclosure experiments as well as enclosure experiments of different densities of browsing should be carried out. In addition, treatment with different densities of Jeju dwarf bamboo should also be included in the experiment on Mt. Hallasan National Park, Jeju Island, Korea.
