국내 합판 산업계는 오랫동안 남양재 활엽수를 주로 사용하여 왔으나, 환경 보존적인 측면에서 열대재의 벌채를 규제하는 등 여러 요인으로 인하여 합판용 원목의 수입이 어려워지고 있다. 이에 대응하기 위하여 합판용 원목을 침엽수재로 대체할 필요가 있으며, 침엽수 합판 제조를 위한 기초 자료를 제공하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 공시 수종은 국내에서 조림한 낙엽송과 시베리아산 낙엽송 및 뉴질랜드산 라디에타 소나무였으며, 공시원목으로부터 얻어진 단판의 품질과 이들 단판으로 제조한 합판의 접착력과 휨강도를 조사하였다. 이면 할렬실험에서 시베리아산 낙엽송은 다른 수종에 비해 할렬 밀도가 낮게 나타났다. 단판 품질은 접착력 및 휨강도에 거의 영향을 미치지 않았으나 합판의 휨강도에서는 심재와 변재에 따른 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이는 합판제조사 심재와 변재를 구별하여 사용할 필요가 있었다. 라디에타 소나무의 변재부로 만든 합판 MOR은 다른 수종에 비해 우수하게 나타났다. 접착력 실험에 있어서는 페놀 접착제를 사용하여 만들어진 합판만이 구조용으로써 사용할 수 있음을 알았다. 목파율은 동일 수종 합판에서는 라디에타 소나무 구성이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 이수종(異樹種) 합판에서는 표판을 국산 낙엽송, 심판을 라디에타 소나무를 사용하여 만든 합판에서 가장 높게 나타났다.

This study was conducted to analyze the relationships between distributions of major hardwood species and characteristics of topography in natural hardwood forest at Mt. Joongwang, Pyongchang-gun, Gangwon-do which belongs to mid-northern part of the temperate forest. Acer pictum var. mono, Acer manshuricum and Quercus mongolica were affected by elevation, while Ulmus davidiana var. japonica and Fraxinus rhynchophylla were affected by the change of slope. Importance values of A. pictum, Betula costata, Ulmus laciniata and Cornus controversa in valley were 13.41%, 5.68% and 3.29%, respectively, which were higher than in any other topography. Species diversity of valley was the highest with 0.98. Ratio of A. pictum and Q. mongolica in dominant species were 24% and 14%, respectively in valley, while were 19% and 23% in slop. Q. mongolica ratio in ridgeline was higher than any other species. Importance values of A. pictum increased continuously until elevation 1,200 m. importance values of F. rhynchophylla was 6.6% which was the highest value found on elevation 800 m. Distributions of major hardwood species were different according to the elevation. The ratio of Q. mongolica and A. pictum were 6.4%~17.5% and 6.0%~10.7% respectively, which were the highest ratio. Species diversity increased according to the increase of the elevation.

The successional status and potential natural vegetation were examined in the natural deciduous forest in Mt. Chombong area. The examination was based on the subsequent process of generation replacement by understory saplings for the dominant canopy trees within 106 20mx20m square sample plots. The transition matrix model, which was modified from mathematical theory of Markov chain, was employed to analyze the successional status of the study forest. The model suggests that study forest is still seral, and it is considered to be more than 500 years away from the steady state or climax in terms of species composition. The simulations predict a remarkable decrease in the proportion of species composition of the present dominant Quercus mongolica and Kalopanax pictus from current 42.6% and 8.1% to less than 13.3% and 0.5%, respectively, at the steady state. On the contrary, the proportions of Abies holophylla, Acer mono, Fraxinus mandshurica, Tilia amurensis, and Acer pseudo-sieboldianum will increase at the steady state. The change of predicted composition ratio was generally coincide with the result of tolerance index to be compared with the study model. The hypothesis and sensitivity of the model were also discussed to evaluate the applicability to the real situation. The overall results indicated that the present dynamics of the forest must reflect the seral state due to previous disturbance mainly by human related interference.

Perforated ray cells are identified for the first time in the Korean species of Deutzia glabrata, Deutzia sieboldiana, Hydrangea paniculata, and Philadelphus schrenckii that belong to Hydrangeaceae but not observed in Deutzia gracilis. These ray cells have simple to scalarifrom perforations in Deutzia glabrata which have vessel elements with scalariform perforations, and have scalariform to reticulate perforations in Deutzia sieboldiana, Hydrangea paniculata, and Philadelphus schrenckii which have vessel elements with scalariform perforations. Thus, the perforations of ray cells in Korean Hydrangeaceae appeared not to be exactly the same as the types of scalariform perforation plates in the vessel elements of same wood.

The Chuwang valley-Kumunkwangi valley forest in Chuwangsan area was studied to investigate forest structure in relation to altitude and part of slope. Forty eight quadrats were set up in the valley forest along altitude of 470m to 780m and part of the slope. Density and basal area of trees in tree strata decreased as increasing elevation. With increasing elevation the importance values of Quercus mongolica, Fraxinus rhynchophylla increased, while those of Pinus densiflora, Lindera obtussiloba decreased. As going from lower part to upper part of the slope, the importance values of Quercus valiabilis and Lindera obtussiloba increased while those of Fraxius rhynchophylla, Acer mono decreased. Species diversity tended to decreased as going to upper parts of the slope. The range of similarity indices between elevation belts, and parts of the slope were 74.4~84.2% and 68.0~96.3%, respectively. According to importance value and cluster analysis, the studied valley forest was classified into three forest communities of Pinus densiflora-deciduous tree species community of lower part of slope, Pinus densiflora-Quercus variabilis community of middle and upper part of slope, Pinus densiflora community of the top area.

Hundred pieces of peat woods(ca. 2500 years old) were excavated in 1995 at Hyunwhari, Pyungtaek in the west-central coast of the Korea Peninsula. Among them, 63 samples representing 21 trenches were selected for the species identification. Because most peat woods were rotten by fungi for long period, only 27 samples could be identified. Due to the deteriorated structure of peat woods, all samples were embedded in PEG(polyethylene glycol 2000) and then sectioned using a rotary microtome. Major species were Alnus spp.(55.6%), Fraxinus spp.(33.3%) and Quercus (Lepidobalanus)(11.1%). No conifers were found. The species composition indicates that the sample region was a swamp or lakeside, which appeared to be formed because of the sea-level rise after last-glacial period.

The characteristics of ecological niche, breadth and overlap, for seventeen major tree species were evaluated in the natural deciduous forest in Mt. Chumbong area. Employed by the plot sampling method, the environmental gradient for vertical niche was based on the intensity of light within the forest, and that for horizontal niche was based on multi-dimensional resources in distribution pattern. The result showed that Fraxinus rhynchophylla had the highest value of vertical niche breadth and Maackia amurensis had the lowest, and Acer pseudo-sieboldianum had the highest value of horizontal niche breadth and Betula costata had the lowest. There was no significant correlation between both measures of niche breadth. However, the tolerance index for each species was positively correlated to the values of niche breadth. Spearman's rank correlation coefficients were applied to test the correlationship between the species ranks of tolerance index and those of two ecological niche breadths. The coefficient of $r_s=0.432$ ($P{\leq}0.1$) was not enough to support significant correlationship between the tolerance index and vertical niche breadth at the 95% probability. If Carpinus cordata, rarely reach canopy of the forest due to its own growth form, are excluded from the analysis, coefficient was calculated as $r_s=0.650$ ($P{\leq}0.01$), resulting in highly significant correlationship. The Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was $r_s=0.797$ ($P{\leq}0.01$) for tolerance indices and the values of horizontal niche breadth, indicating highly significant. Four distinctive species groups, produced by cluster analysis on the basis of ecological niche overlap for each pair of species, were in considerable accord with the positively associated species constellation pattern created by the inter-species association analysis.

This study was carried out to scrutinize possibility of manufacturing pitch pine (Pinus rigida) glued laminated timber in order to add values of pitch pine trees. Also, it was investigated to improve bending performance of pitch pine glulam. Pitch pine was imported as one of major plantation species in Korean peninsula. Machine stress rated grades of pitch pine lumber mostly ranged between E7 and E9. which grades were more or less inferior to producing high quality glulam. However, the adhesive properties between pitch pine and pitch pine, and between pitch pine and Japanese larch (Larix kaempferi Carr.), such as shear bond strength, wood failure rate and de-lamination rate of bonded layer submerged in cold and boiling water, were higher than Korean Standard criteria. These properties are essential for manufacturing glulam with single species or multiple species. The modulus of rupture (MOR) of pitch pine glulam exceeded the criterion of Korean Standard for glulam strength grade but modulus of elasticity (MOE) was lower than the criterion. On the other hand, the bending performances (MOR and MOE) were improved 20 percent by mixing with Japanese larch laminar. It is effective to arrange higher quality Japanese larch laminar at the outer layer of glulam for improving bending performances. In conclusion, it is possible to use low quality pitch pine as laminar of structural glulam for adding values of pitch pine.

This study was conducted to investigate and compare species composition, stand structure, and growth pattern for two different sites in which silvopastoral system has been taking place. One site was the pasture area where a number of trees were removed and grasses were planted for cattle grazing, and the other site was the deciduous forest that has been established by ecological succession. The results were as follows: 1. Nine tree species were present equally in the pasture area and the deciduous forest. Of these species, seven tree species were growing in common for two sites. However, the species composition, including density and frequency, was varied by sites. 2. The number of stems per hectare in the pasture area was 71, and that in the deciduous forest was 1,433, having shown the big difference. It is estimated that, considering the growth rate, better grown trees were remained at the time of harvesting in 1996. 3. The growth of diameter, height, and basal area in the pasture area was superior to that in the nearby deciduous forest. In spite of higher values of diameter and height, the timber volume of pasture area per unit area was less than 15% of that in the deciduous forest. 4. Providing sufficient growing space, the pasture area supported higher values of diameter and height. The wider growing space also had influence on the expansion of crown of trees by the result of deliquescent growth pattern. From this point of view, more research would be needed to establish appropriate number of trees for silvopastoral system.
