초록

본 연구는 홍천군 명개리 열목어 서식지인 계방천의 어류 군집과 열목어 개체군 특성 및 서식지 주변 토지이용에 따른 상관성을 파악하고자 수행하였다. 조사는 2018년 7월, 9월, 10월 총 3회 조사를 실시하였다. 조사결과 총 6과 13종 882개체의 어류가 채집되었으며, 우점종은 금강모치, 아우점종은 참갈겨니로 확인되었다. 채집된 어류 중 법정보호종은 멸종위기야생생물 II급인 열목어와 가는돌고기가 출현하였으며, 천연기념물 제259호인 어름치가 확인되었다. 한국고유종은 총 10종으로 76.92%의 매우 높은 고유종 빈도로 나타났다. 계방천에서 열목어 추가조사를 포함하여 3회 조사 동안 총 99개체의 열목어가 채집되었다. 열목어 개체군의 생육상태와 생식능력 정도를 파악할 수 있는 전장-체중 상관관계 분석 및 비만도 지수(k) 분석을 실시한 결과 열목어의 회귀계수 b값은 3.1272, 비만도 지수(k)는 0.0006으로 분석되어 조사지역의 열목어 개체군은 비교적 안정적인 생육상태를 유지하고 있는 것으로 확인되었으나, 비교적 낮은 값을 유지하는 것으로 나타났다. 전장빈도분포 분석 결과 당년생 60~130mm, 1년생 140~200 mm, 2년생 이상의 개체는 200 mm로 추정되었다. QHEI는 130.0 (±2.0)~159.0 (±1.0)의 범위인 '양호~최적' 등급으로 분석되었다. HSI를 분석한 결과 최적의 수심은 0.45~0.55 m와 1.0 m 이상, 최적의 유속은 0.55~0.65m s-1, 하상은 Boulder를 선호하는 것으로 확인되었다. 조사지점별 인근 토지이용 비율을 분석한 결과 산림지역 66.26~96.31%, 농업지역 0.00~23.79%, 도시지역 0.00~4.19%, 기타지역 3.69~8.87%로 분석되어 대부분의 지점에서 산림의 비율이 높게 나타났으며, 다음으로 농업지역의 비율이 높게 나타났다. 지점별 출현한 열목어 개체수와 다양한 항목 간의 상관성 분석을 실시한 결과, QHEI와 산림지역과는 양의 상관성(p<0.05), 농업지역과 도시지역과는 음의 상관성(p<0.05, p<0.01)으로 분석되어 서식지 주변의 토지이용 유형 및 변화 정도에 따라 열목어 개체군에 많은 영향을 미치며, 열목어 개체군 보호 및 관리를 위해는 서식지 주변 토지이용에 따른 관리방안 마련이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to provide baseline ecological data for the conservation of the Manchurian trout habitat through the investigation of the growth status of Brachymystax lenok tsinlingensis, and Pearson's correlation analysis (PCA) between the B. lenok tsinlingensis population and the use of the land around Gyebangcheon stream. Sampling was conducted twice in July, September, and October 2018. During the July and September surveys, 882 individuals belonging to 13 species from six families were collected. The dominant species was Rhynchocypris kumgangensis and the subdominant species was Zacco koreanus. The total number of B. lenok tsinlingensis collected was 99. The results of the length-weight relationship in the B. lenok tsinlingensis population were analyzed with a regression coefficient b value of 3.1272 and a condition factor (k) value of 0.0006. Therefore, the growth condition of B. lenok tsinlingensis was regarded as fairly good. The QHEI(Qualitative habitat evaluation index) value in the B. lenok tsinlingensis habitat was 119.5(±0.5)-153.5(±0.5), indicating optimal-suboptimal conditions. As a result of the HIS (Habitat suitability index) analysis, it was confirmed that the optimal habitat for B. lenok tsinlingensis was 0.45-0.55m and >1 m in water depth, 0.55-0.65 m s-1 in water velocity, and boulder in the substrate. The ratio of the land use in this study site was analyzed as 66.26-96.31% for forest and grassland areas, 0.00-23.79% for agricultural areas, 0.00-4.19% for urbanized areas, and 3.69-8.87% for others. Correlation analysis of the number of B. lenok tsinlingensis and various factors revealed statistically significant correlations between QHEI and forest and grassland areas, agricultural areas, and urbanized areas.
