Abstract

Hibiscus hamabo, the northernmost semi-mangrove species in East Asia, presents an important case study for examining climate change's impact on temperate ecosystems and shifts in Korea's subtropical vegetation. This study investigates vegetation characteristics of H. hamabo and evaluates environmental factors influencing their distribution. H. hamabo communities are classified by regional and coastal types. Group I is found in depressed areas within deep bays, cohabiting with herbaceous halophytes. Group II develops along coasts with exposed bedrock or on gravelly coasts, cohabiting with tide tolerance vine shrubs. Group III in Japan encompasses a broader range of coastal environments compared to Korea. A monospecific population with over 100 individuals appeared in this group. this study reveals that precipitation of warmest quarter is the most important environmental factor affecting the distribution of H. hamabo communities. This research analyzes the influence of climatic variables in the distribution of semi-mangrove species, contributing to our understanding of ecological responses to climate change.

황근은 동아시아에서 가장 북쪽에 분포하는 준맹그로브에 속한다. 황근의 식생 분포 변화를 살펴보는 것은 기후변화로 인한 우리나라의 난대 식생대 변화를 관찰하는데 유용할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 Hibiscus속 준맹그로브와 황근의 지리적 분포 관계를 살펴보고 황근 군락 분포에 영향을 미치는 환경요인을 분석하였다. 황근 군락은 지역과 해안 유형에 의해 구분할 수 있었는데, 그룹 I의 경우 깊은 만 안쪽으로 함몰된 지형에 발달한 토양을 기반으로 군락이 형성되어 있으며 초본 염생식물과 함께 출현하였다. 그룹 II는 기반암이 많이 노출된 해안 혹은 자갈 해안에서 강한 파도의 영향을 견딜 수 있는 덩굴성 해안 관목과 함께 발달하였다. 그룹 III은 일본에 위치한 군락으로 우리나라보다 다양한 해안 유형에서 나타나며, 100개체 이상 큰 규모의 순군락이 출현하였다. 황근 군락 분포에 영향을 주는 환경요인을 분석한 결과 가장 따뜻한 분기의 강수량이 가장 중요한 요인으로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서는 기후 인자들과 준맹그로브 분포의 관계를 분석하고 기후변화 영향에 대한 황근의 생태적인 반응을 이해하는 기반을 마련하고자 한다.
