Amounts of sap collected by DBH class and contents of mineral and free sugar in the sap of Acer mono for. rubripes indigenous in Geojedo were investigated. The collectable periods of sap of A. mono for. rubripes were 17 days and the total amount of sap was 193 l from 60 trees. Sap of A. mono for. rubripes were increased with increasing DBH, being 40 l (21 %), 49 l (25%) and 104 l (54%) from small, middle and large diameter tree, respectively. This may be due to increase in crown width and extention of root system. Amounts of sap was affected by temperature fluctuation between day and night. The pH and the contents of solid and sugar in the sap of A. mono for. rubripes were 6.5 and 2.40% and 1.99%, respectively. Free sugar determined in the sap was sucrose with 19.9 g/l, but glucose, fructose and maltose were not detected. The sap of A. mono for. rubripes contained seven kinds of minerals and the prominent minerals were Ca and K with their concentration being 441 mg/l and 383 mg/l, respectively.

This study was carried out to furnish basic information on the habitat through soil condition and vegetation structure of an Acer mono for. rubripes stand in Geoje, Gyeongnam Province. Soil pH of the A. mono for. rubripes stand was 5.17. The contents of organic matter, total N and available P205 were 8.7%,0.38%, 15.7ppm, respectively. A. mono for. rubripes, Meliosma oldhamii, Zelkova serrata, Styrax japonica, Sapium japonicum, Lindera erythrocarpa and Euonymus oxyphyllus appeared in all layers. The importance values of A. mono for. rubripes, Z. serrata and Quercus serrata in the upper layer were high, S. japonicum and M. myriantha were high in the middle layer and lower layer, respectively. Species diversity and evenness ranged from 0.931 of the middle layer to 1.638 of the lower layer, and from 0.706 of the upper layer to 0.959 of the lower layer, respectively. The study results provide basic information on soil condition and vegetation structure of the Acer mono for. rubripes stand native to Geoje, Korea.

Vegetational data obtained from 15 quadrats of Mt. Daeam area were analysed by applying two multivariate methods : two-way indicator species analysis(TWINSPAN) for classification and detrended canonical correspondence analysis(DCCA) for ordination. The dominant tree species were Quercus mongolica, Acer pseudo-sieboldianum, Betula costata, and Acer mono in descending order. The pH ranges were 5.0 to 5.5 in the 15 sites near bog and 5.3 to 5.4 in the 3 sites within bog. The forest communities in Mt. Daeam were classified into Quercus mongolica-Acer mono, Quercus mongolica-Prunus sargentii, Quercus mongolica-Abies nephrolepis-Acer tschonoskii var, rubripes, and Quercus mongolica-Abies nephrolepis-Betula costata according to the TWINSPAN. The relationships between the distribution of dominant species of forest vegetation and soil in the forest of Mt. Daeam were investigated by analyzing soil nutrition gradient. Quercus mongolica-Prunus sargentii forests were distributed in the good sites in nutrition levels of total nitrogen, cation exchange capacity, $Mg^{+{+}}$ and $Ca^{+{+}}$ but Quercus mongolica-Abies nephrolepis-Betula costata forests in the poor sites in the nutrition levels.

This study was conducted to analysis the growth characteristics and the diameter at breast height (10 cm) reached ages in natural stand and platation for the optimal planting density and planting timing of Acer mono for. rubripes. There was high correlation between the DBH and crown diameter (E-W: r=0.82, S-N: r=0.76) in natural stand, and between the DBH and crown diameter (E-W: r=0.76, S-N: r=0.90) in plantation. In natural stand, average reached age on DBH 10 cm was $21.1{\pm}7.0$, and was $9.2{\pm}1.3$ in plantation. Therefore, the collectable timing of sap in artificial planting short approximately 2.3 times over the natural regeneration.

This study was conducted to analyze to the applicability of refined saps of Acer mono, A. mono for. rubripes, A. okamotoanum through sap refining system. 1 species of Bacillus genus, 3-4 species of yeast and 2 species of fungi were detected in the origin sap of three Acer spp. The pH in the origin sap were 6.5, and decreased in refining sap as 6.3-6.4. Sucrose in sugar components was detected in the origin and refining sap of Acer spp., but glucose and fructose were not detected. Compared the origin and refining sap, mineral components decreased slightly in refining sap. These results indicate that refining sap of Acer spp. are drinkable with long-term storage.
