Abstract

This study was carried out to classify vegetation structure of the Hyangjeokbong in the Deogyusan National Park using the gradient analysis and phytosociological method. The vegetation was classified into Quercus mongolica community(Rhododendron schlippenbachii subcommunity, typical subcommunity), Q. serrata community, Q. variabillis community, Pinus densiflora community, Cornus controversa community, Fraxinus mandshurica community and Taxus cuspidata community. Ecological characteristics such as species composition, layer structure, vegetation ratio, and the distribution of individual trees by DBH(diameter at breast height) were significantly different among communities. The order of important value of the forest community with DBH 2cm above plants was Q. mongolica(81.2), F. mandshurica, Q. serrata, P. densiflora, Acer pseudosieboldianum, Q. variabillis, Rhododendron schlippenbachii, C. controversa, T. cuspidata. Distribution of DBH of Q. mongolica and Q. serrata had suggesting a continuous domination of these species over the other species for the time being. In contrast, F. mandshurica appeared limited to the valley of the sheet and a higher frequency of young individuals, suggesting a continuous domination of these species the development of a climax forest terrain. P. densiflora and T. cuspidata had suggesting a continuous domination of these species over the other species for the time being in maintain. Q. variabilis and C. controversa had a formality distribution, suggesting a continuous domination of these species over the other species for the time being. This study examined the correlation between each community and the environment according to DCCA ordination. The Q. mongolica community and T. cuspidata community predominated in the highest elevation habitats which had few moisture, Ca and in the low pH. The Q. serrata community mainly occurred in the low elevation habitats which had many moisture. P. densiflora community predominated in the middle elevation and south-facing slope habitats which had few moisture, Ca and in the low pH. F. mandshurica community predominated in the low elevation habitats which had many moisture, Ca and pH.

본 연구는 덕유산국립공원 향적봉일대 산림 식생을 식물사회학적 방법과 구배분석을 실시하여 분석한 결과, 신갈나무군락(철쭉하위군락, 전형하위군락), 졸참나무군락, 굴참나무군락, 소나무군락, 층층나무군락, 들메나무군락 및 주목 군락으로 구분되었으며 군락 간에는 종조성, 계층구조 및 식피율 등 생태적 특징에 많은 차이가 있는 것으로 조사되었다. 전체 군락에서 나타난 중요치는 신갈나무가 가장 높고(81.2) 다음으로 들메나무, 졸참나무, 소나무, 당단풍, 굴참나무, 철쭉, 층층나무, 주목 등의 순이었다. 중요치가 높은 주요종에 대한 흉고직경급을 분석한 결과 신갈나무와 졸참나무는 계속적으로 우점도가 높아질 것이며, 들메나무는 계곡부에 군락을 형성하고 역J자형에 가까운 분포로 나타나 지형적 극상림으로 발달할 것으로 생각된다. 소나무와 주목은 당분간 우점도 상태를 유지 할 것으로 예상되며, 굴참나무와 층층나무는 정규분포형을 나타내고 있어 현상태로 계속 우점도를 유지할 것으로 생각된다. 식물사회학적 방법에 의하여 분류된 7개 군락과 12개의 환경 요인으로 DCCA ordination 분석한 결과 신갈나무군락과 주목군락은 해발고가 높고 건조하고 Ca의 양료가 적으며 pH가 비교적 낮은 곳에 분포하였으며, 졸참나무군락은 해발고가 낮고 수분이 비교적 많은 지역에 분포하였다. 소나무군락은 남사면의 해발고가 중간 정도이고 pH가 낮고 Ca 등의 양료가 적은 건조한 지역에 분포하였다. 들메나무군락은 해발고가 낮고 수분이 많은 계곡부에 분포하고 있으며, Ca의 양료가 많으며 pH가 높은 지역에 분포하였다.
