Abstract

In this study, we investigated the vertical distribution and vascular plants on Joryeongsan Mountain in Baekdudaegan, Korea. The results of four field surveys from April to September 2023 identified a total of 552 taxa, representing 491 species, ten subspecies, 43 varieties, six forms, and two hybrids in 314 genera and 101 families. The elevational distribution ranges of 360 taxa of vascular plants were also identified. Among them, 19 taxa were endemic to Korea, and two taxa were rare plants. The floristic target plants amounted to 100 taxa, specifically two taxa of grade V, seven taxa of grade IV, 25 taxa of grade III, 33 taxa of grade II, and 33 taxa of grade I. Seventy-eight taxa were northern lineage plants. In all, 29 taxa of alien plants were recorded in the investigated area, with a naturalized index of 5.3% and an urbanization index of 7.4%. Two plants disturbed the ecosystem. Species richness along the elevation showed a reversed double-hump shape with peaks at low, mid, and high elevations. The results of a cluster analysis showed a high degree of similarity between adjacent elevation sections, except in lowlands. Detrended Correspondence Analysis ordination also supported distinct groups by elevation. Warmth index values ranged from 62.1℃·month to 92.9℃·month on Joryeongsan Mountain. Our results provide primary data on vascular plants and valuable information on the current distribution ranges of plant species on Joryeongsan Mountain. These data could serve as a baseline for comparing species shifts at elevations under future climate changes.

본 연구는 백두대간 조령산의 관속식물과 고도별 수직분포 조사를 조사하였다. 2023년 4월부터 2023년 9월까지 총 4회에 걸쳐 조사한 결과, 관속식물은 101과 314속 491종 10아종 43변종 6품종 2교잡종의 총 552분류군이 확인되었다. 또한 우리는 관속식물 360분류군에 대해 고도별 분포범위를 구축하였다. 한반도 특산식물은 19분류군, 희귀식물은 2분류군이었다. 식물구계학적 특정식물은 총 100분류군으로 V등급에 2분류군, IV등급에 7분류군, III등급에 25분류군, II등급에 33분류군, I등급에 33분류군이 확인되었다. 북방계 식물은 78분류군, 외래식물은 29분류군이며, 귀화율 5.3%, 도시화지수 7.4%로 나타났다. 생태계교란식물은 2분류군이 확인되었다. 종 풍부도는 저지대와 중간 고도, 정상부에서 높은 패턴이 나타났다. 고도별 종 조성의 유사도는 저지대인 해발 200~300 m를 제외하고 인접한 고도구간일수록 유사성이 높게 나타났다. 조령산은 고도에 따라 62.1~92.9℃·month의 온도 범위를 보여주었다. 본 연구는 조령산 관속식물의 분포 자료로써 추후 기후변화에 따른 식물의 분포변화 연구를 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것이다.
