Old big tree transcends the simple meaning of trees as they are the natural monuments that embody the people's history and culture of this land. The Cultural Heritage Administration of Korea (CHA) defines and protects old big tree based not only on the size of the tree but also on its definitive cultural and natural factors such as value, implications, and originality. This research aims to identify and analyze the habitation and measurements, the soil conditions, as well as the protective facilities of 14 old big tree spread throughout the Gangwondo. The research examined the soundness of the arboreal form, the degree of damage on the bark, as well as the quantity of leafs levels to evaluate the overall condition of growth and development. Then, the tree height, the eastwest and south-north width of the crown, the sternum circumference, and the root circumference were recorded to identify the measurements of the selected old big tree. Also, the research analyzed 9 elements such as soil texture, pH levels, and organic contents in order to determine the scientific characteristics of soil upon which the trees draw nutrition. Finally, the research evaluated supporting pillars, lightning rods, iron pulling-facilities, as well as notice boards to study the protective facilities of old big tree. The research procedures revealed that 78.57% of the old big tree identified as natural monuments in the Gangwondo have average to above average habitation conditions. Also, the average tree height reaches 18.80m above ground while the average root circumference measures 7.34m. Moreover, the results of the scientific analyses conducted on the soil elements determined that most chemical values were within the defined levels, with the exception of phosphoric acid levels falling within the hyper-nutritious range. Finally, although most of the protective facilities did support the habitation of the Old big tree, there were some supporting pillars and iron pulling-facilities that actually damaged the trees. This research means to provide foundational reference data for the analysis of the habitation and management conditions of natural monument old big tree within the Gangwondo. A follow-up topic led by the results of this research is the identification and analysis of correlating environmental elements that affect the habitation of the old big tree.

Pinellia tripartita(Blume) Schott is a herbaceous perennial plant belonging to the Araceae and distributed on Asia including of Korea, Japan, and China. P. tripartita is often used for gardening but has not been developed mass-breeding methods. In this study, we compared the tuber growth in different combinations of mixed soils used six compositions. Tubers used to study was cultured in vitro and divided into two groups. Type I was diameter more than 1cm and the group of Type II was diameter below than 1cm. Enlargement of tubers and growth of aerial parts were measuring the plant height, number of fresh leaves and dead leaves, number of bullets, tuber size, and fresh / dry weight. The size/weight and numbers of tubers from the mixed soil B (coir 68.0%, peat moss 14.7%, perlite 3.0%, vermiculite 7.0% and zeolite 7.0%) were the best grown up for eight weeks. In case of Type I, GI (Growth index) of tuber size and weight were 45% and 101%, respectively. The difference of growth was doubled compared to the bad growth treatment as the mixed soil E(Coir 14.3%, peat moss 14.3%, perlite 42.9%, vermiculite 14.3%, and zeolite 14.3%). These results could be used as the basic information for the similar experimental design for the P. ternata.

To investigate the structure and the conservation strategy of natural forest at Dosolbong area in Mt. Sobaek, 20 plots(400$m^2$) set up with random sampling method. Three groups were classified by cluster analysis. High positive correlations was proved between Acer pseudo-sieboldianum and Tilia amurensis, Weigela subsessilis, Corylus heterophylla var. thunbergii and Stephanandra incisa, Lespedeza bicolor and Styrax obassia, and high negative correlations was proved between Rhododendron schlippenbachii and Symplocos chinensis, Carpinus cordata. Species diversity(H') of investigated area was calculated 2.2521-2.3772. Leontopodium japonicum community at Dosolbong area in Mt. Sobaek should be conserved.

To investigate the structure and the conservation strategy of natural forest at Dongdaesan, Turobong, Sangwangbong Area in Odaesan National Park, 27 plots(20$\times$20m) set up with random sampling method. Three groups were classified by cluster analyses. High positive correlations was proved between Tilia amurensis and Acer pseudo-sieboldianum, Malus faccata and Syringa reticulata var. mandshurica, Prunus padus and Viburnum sargentii, and High negative correlations was proved between Quercus mongolica and pronus padus, Tilia amurensis and Prunus padus, Acer pseudo-sieboldianum and Prunus padus. Species diversity(H') of investigated area was calculated 0.9586~1.1814.

본 연구는 경남 함양군 삼봉산의 관속식물을 조사한 후 식물상 현황과 특정식물종 및 귀화식물 등을 정리하였으며, 차후 식물상의 보호 관리에 있어 기초 자료로 활용하고자 실시하였다. 삼봉산은 전북 남원시 산내면 중황리, 인월면 상우리와 경남 함양군 마천면 구양리, 함양읍, 죽림리가 접하는 지역으로 남쪽으로는 국립공원 지리산의 연봉이 길게 늘어서 있고 북쪽으로는 광주대구 고속도로 건너 함양군의 백운산과 괘관산 등 1,000m가 넘는 산이 많은 지역내에 위치하고 있다. 삼봉산지역에 자생하는 관속식물은 총 80개과 182개속 254개 종이 생육하는 것으로 나타났다. 삼봉산 지역의 특정식물종은 식물구계학적 특정식물 V등급인 승마 Cimicifuga heracleifolia Kom.)와 IV등급인 도깨비부채(Rodgersia podophylla A.Gray), 점현호색 (Corydalis maculata B.U.Oh & Y.S.Kim), 솔붓꽃 (Iris ruthenica KerGawl.), 산복사나무 [Prunus davidiana (Carriere) Franch.] 등이 분포하는 것으로 확인되었다. 조사결과 가흥지역에서 환경부 멸종위기종은에 해당하는 분류군은 없었으며 특정식물종 V등급에 해당되는 승마와 IV등급에 해당되는 4개 분류군이 확인되었다. 국립공원지리산 근처의 1,000m이상의 산지임에도 전체적으로 50년 전부터이루어진 조림과 능선 바로 아래까지 경작지가 존재하는 등 식생의 파괴가 심하여 전체적인 관속식물의 다양성은 낮은 것으로 확인되었다.

Background : This text was conducted to evaluate the distribution, shape characteristics and habitat condition of Crypsinus hastatus in Buyeo Korea. Methods and Results : In Buyeo, Crypsinus hastatus was distributed at an altitude of 31.2 m, a slope of 82.5% and a distance from river water of 27.2 m. The leaf blade was oblong, 2.7 cm long, 1.2 cm wide with a petiole length of 2.3 cm. The total population comprised 2,100 individuals, with the highest proportion being individuals with a leaf blade of length 0.5 - 1 cm. The temperature and light intensity of the growth point were lower, but the humidity higher, than that of growth around. The chemical properties of the soil were as follows: pH 4.42, organic matter 77.99 g/kg, electrical conductivity 0.50 dS/m, nitrate nitrogen 20.50 mg/kg and available phosphate 165.7 mg/kg. Exchangeable cation content of potassium, magnesium, sodium and calcium was 0.35, 0.70, 0.09 and $2.04cmol^+/kg$, respectively. Conclusions : In Buyeo, Crypsinus hastatus was distributed in $5.3m^2$ area of Nakhwaam, Naeseongri and Jeongamri. However, the population of the medicinal resources seemed to decrease owing to the poor environmental conditions of the habitat.

Here we report the occurrence of a seagrass species, Halophila nipponica J. Kuo, which was recently collected from Ando-ri, Yeosu-city, Jeollanam-do in Korea. H. nipponica, which was first collected from Japan, is the only Halophila species distributed in temperate regions, and was reported as a new species recently. The new Korean common name of this species, 'Hae-ho-mal' was given considering its habitat.
