Abstract

Hornbeams (Carpinus spp.), which are widely distributed in South Korea, are recognized as one of the most abundant species at climax stage in the temperate forests. Although the distribution and vegetation structure of the C. laxiflora community have been reported, little ecological information of C. tschonoskii is available. Little effort was made to examine the distribution shift of these species under the future climate conditions. This study was conducted to predict potential shifts in the distribution of C. laxiflora and C. tschonoskii in 2050s and 2090s under the two sets of climate change scenarios, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5. The MaxEnt model was used to predict the spatial distribution of two species using the occurrence data derived from the 6th National Forest Inventory data as well as climate and topography data. It was found that the main factors for the distribution of C. laxiflora were elevation, temperature seasonality, and mean annual precipitation. The distribution of C. tschonoskii, was influenced by temperature seasonality, mean annual precipitation, and mean diurnal rang. It was projected that the total habitat area of the C. laxiflora could increase by 1.05% and 1.11% under RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 scenarios, respectively. It was also predicted that the distributional area of C. tschonoskii could expand under the future climate conditions. These results highlighted that the climate change would have considerable impact on the spatial distribution of C. laxiflora and C. tschonoskii. These also suggested that ecological information derived from climate change impact assessment study can be used to develop proper forest management practices in response to climate change.

서어나무속 수종은 우리나라 온대중부지방 극상림을 이루는 주요 수종으로 인식되어 왔으며, 국내에서 넓은 분포역을 보인다. 기존 많은 연구들은 서어나무(C. laxiflora) 군락의 군집구조, 식생천이, 분포 현황 등에 대한 연구가 대부분을 이루었다. 그러나, 개서어나무(C. tschonoskii)의 경우, 개체종 수준에서의 집중연구보다는 임분 내 구성목으로서 다른 수목종들과의 군집구조 분석에 초점을 맞춰 아직까지 연구가 미흡실정이다. 또한, 두 수종에 대한 서식환경, 서식지 선호도, 기후 및 환경변화 등의 교란에 따른 서식지 변화에 대한 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 최대 엔트로피 모델링(MaxEnt; Maximum Entropy Modeling)기법을 사용해 서어나무와 개서어나무의 서식지 분포에 영향을 끼치는 환경인자를 분석하고 두 가지 기후 예측 시나리오인 RCP4.5 및 RCP8.5를 적용하여 각각 2050년대와 2090년대의 분포변화를 예측하였다. 연구결과 각 수종의 서식지 분포에 영향을 끼치는 주요인자로 서어나무는 고도, 온도 계절성, 연평균 강수량인 것으로 나타났고, 개서어나무는 온도 계절성, 연평균 강수량, 주간 일교차인 것으로 나타났다. 서식지 면적의 경우 서어나무는 RCP4.5, RCP8.5의 기후변화가 진행됐을 때, 현재 서식지 면적에 비해 각각 약 1.05배, 약 1.11배로 면적이 증가할 것으로 예측되었다. 개서어나무는 RCP4.5, RCP8.5의 기후변화가 진행됐을 때, 현재 서식지 면적에 비해 각각 약 1.24배, 약 1.33배의 증가가 보일 것으로 예측되었다. 본 연구는 분류학적으로 유사계통에 속하는 서어나무와 개서어나무의 기후변화에 따른 국내 분포확산과 분포지역 간 차이에 대한 미래예측 그리고 두 종의 서식지 및 개체군 관리에 있어서 잠재적 관리 대상지 및 고려사항에 대한 유의미한 정보를 제공할 것으로 판단된다.
