Growth and yield prediction methods, ranging from whole-stand models to individual-tree models, have been developed for forest types managed for wood production. The resultant models are used for a host of purposes including inventory updating, management planning, evaluation of silvicultural alternatives, and harvest scheduling. Because of the large investment in developing growth and yield models for improved genotypes and silvicultural practices for loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) in the Southern United States, this region serves to illustrate approaches for modelling intensively managed forests. Analytical methods and computing power generally do not restrict development of reliable growth and yield models. However, long-term empirical observations on stand development, which are time consuming and expensive to obtain, often limit modelling efforts. Given that growth and yield models are used to project present volumes and to evaluate alternative treatment effects, data of both the inventory type and the experimental type are needed. Data for developing stand simulators for loblolly pine plantations have been obtained from a combination of permanent plots in operational forest stands and silvicultural experiments; these data collection efforts are described and summarized. Modelling is essential for integrating and synthesizing diverse information, identifying knowledge gaps, and making informed decisions. The questions being posed today are more complex than in the past, thus further accentuating the need for comprehensive models for stand development.

This study developed rice packaging paper with exterminating performance against rice weevils such as Tenebroides mauritanicus and Sitophilus oryzae. The exterminating performance of packaging paper was given by treatment of garlic extractives and pine-leaf powder, respectively. For the exterminating test, rice weevils were put in petri dish containing non-treated packaging paper and functional packaging paper for twenty days. Right after being put in the petri dish, the rice weevils moved fast toward the area in the non-treated paper escaping from that in the functional paper. The lethality of the rice weevils on the functional paper reached over 50 per cent. The physical properties of the functional packaging paper were rarely changed in spite of treatment of the exterminating agents.

This study was carried out to analyze annual diameter growth characteristics for major 11 tree species using the data for Gangwon province of the National Forest Resources Inventory in 2007. The annual diameter growth of coniferous species was 5.02 mm, 4.70 mm, and 3.90 mm in Korean white pine, Japanese larch, and Korean red pine, respectively. In growths of the deciduous trees, dogwood, basswood, and cork oak had 3.55 mm, 3.48 mm and 3.01 mm, respectively. Average of the annual diameter growths for all species was 3.38 mm. The relationship between diameter growth and age class showed that the growth rate decreased for all species as age increased. The age class II had the highest annual diameter rate. In relation of the stand density(trees per hectare) and diameter growth, the diameter growth tended to decrease as the stand density increased for most species, especially Korean white pine, cork oak, and basswood. Finally age had the highest value in the correlation coefficients between measurement factor and growth rate regardless of species.

본 연구에서는 우리나라에서 수관화에 취약하다고 밝혀진 소나무림을 대상으로 수관층의 연료특성을 잎과 가지 굵기 별로 구분하여 수분함량, 연료밀도로 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 대구 팔공산에서 소나무 10그루를 벌채하여 각 부위별로 건중량을 측정하였다. 분석결과 수관층 살아 있는 부위의 평균 수분함량은 53%, 죽은 부위는 15.3%였으며, 생엽의 수분함수율은 평균 56%이었다. 수관화 확산시 실제적으로 연소되는 잎과 직경 1 cm 이하의 가지를 합한 연료량은 전체 바이오매스에서는 16.2%, 수관층 바이오매스에서는 55%를 차지하였다. 수관 연료밀도는 평균 0.24 kg/$m^3$이었으며, 잎과 1 cm 굵기 이하의 가지를 합한 유효 수관연료밀도는 0.1325 kg/$m^3$이었다.

본 연구는 보다 정확한 소나무림의 분포현황을 이용하여 효과적으로 소나무림을 보전관리하기 위한 기초자료를 제공하는 데 목적이 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 기후변화에 의한 남한지역에 서식하고 있는 소나무림의 지리적 분포 변화를 예측하고 연령대별 소나무림의 공간적 분포 특성을 평가하고자 한다. 이를 위해서 종 분포 변화를 예측하는데 유용한 MaxEnt 모델을 현재와 미래 시기의 기후변화 시나리오 자료에 적용하여 소나무림의 잠재적인 분포 변화를 예측하고, 연령대별 분포면적과 변화에 미치는 생물 기후 변수의 영향을 분석하였다. 소나무림의 잠재적 분포지역은 남한지역에서 10~30년생의 소나무림이 상대적으로 많이 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 연령대별 소나무림에게 기후적으로 적합한 지역의 면적이 클수록 감소 지역은 커지고, 새롭게 확장되는 지역은 작아지는 경향으로 나타났다. 이는 서식 적합한 지역의 대부분이 중복되는 지역으로서 유사한 기후환경에서 소나무림의 연령대별 상호작용이 상호 촉진 관계에서 경쟁적인 관계로 변하는 데 기인할 것으로 추측된다. 기온변화보다 강수량이 소나무림의 분포에 더 큰 영향을 주고, 소나무의 지리적인 분포 변화는 평균적인 기후 특성보다 건조한 시기의 강수량 및 최고 한기의 기온과 같이 기후의 극한성에 영향을 더 받는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 최고 건기의 강수량에 의한 소나무림의 분포 변화에 대한 영향은 연령대와 상관없이 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 향후 기온 상승에 따른 수분결핍이 증가하여 결국 생장과 생리반응에 영향을 주는 가뭄과 연관된 기후환경이 조성되어 소나무림의 감소를 초래할 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구에서 유도된 결과는 기존에 구축된 다양한 생물 자원 정보를 활용하여 기후변화에 따른 지리적인 변화를 예측하는 데 유용한 방법으로 적용될 수 있고, 자연생태계 분야에서 산림식생보전과 관련된 기후변화 적응정책 수립에 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구는 기후변화에 따른 소나무 잠재분포변화 예측 및 환경요인과의 관계를 파악하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 입력자료인 종속변수는 1:5,000 임상도에서 추출한 소나무 출현자료를 사용하였으며, 독립변수는 RCP 시나리오 기후자료 및 임상도, 입지도에서 추출한 기후, 입지, 생육환경자료 등 총 14개의 환경요인 변수를 사용하였다. 이러한 입력자료를 바탕으로 생태적 지위 개념을 기반으로 한 종 분포 모형 중 하나인 MaxEnt (Maximum Entropy Modeling) 모형을 구동하여 미래의 소나무 잠재분포를 예측하였다. 분석결과 training AUC (Area Under Curve)가 0.79로 우수한 수준의 정확도를 보였으며 현존 소나무 분포 자료와 유사한 현재 잠재분포 결과를 보였다. RCP 시나리오를 적용한 결과 소나무 잠재분포지는 시간이 지남에 따라 지속적으로 감소할 것으로 나타났으며 RCP8.5 기준으로 2050년과 2070년에 각각 11.1%, 18.7%의 잠재분포지가 줄어들 것으로 예측되었다. 입력자료의 소나무 잠재분포 판단에 대한 기여도는 계절기온, 고도, 겨울철 기온 등이 높게 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 기후변화로 인한 소나무림 보전 및 대책 수립을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

Fine root decomposition and nutrient release patterns were examined using in situ buried fine root (< 2mm in diameter) bags inserted vertically into the mineral soil to a depth of the top 15 cm in a sawtooth oak (Quercus acutissima) and a Korean pine (Pinus korainesis) stands in the Jungbu Forest Experiment Station, Kyonggi-do, Korea. The pine roots compared with the oak roots showed rapid mass loss in early stages of decomposition, but decomposed similarly after 12 months of incubation. Decomposition rates of fine roots were about 33%/yr for the oak roots and 37%/yr for the pine roots. Nutrients except for calcium and phosphorus showed similar concentrations between the oak and the pine roots during the study period. However, calcium concentration was significantly higher in the oak than in the pine roots. Nutrient concentrations in both stands except for nitrogen decreased during the study period. In addition, potassium compared with other nutrients was the most mobile ion and about 70% of initial amount was released during the first 3 months of incubation. The results indicate that tree species influence mass loss and nutrient dynamics of fine roots on similar site conditions.

Decomposition rates of fine roots were about 33%/yr for the oak roots and 37$\%$/yr for the pine roots.

Vegetation carbon sequestration and regeneration are the two major parameters of forest research. In this study, we analyzed the vegetation carbon stock and regeneration of community-managed pine plantation of Kathmandu, central Nepal. Vegetation data were collected from 40 circular plots of 10 m radius (for the tree) and 1m radius (for seedling) applying a stratified random sampling and nested quadrat method. The carbon stock was estimated by Chave allometric model and estimated carbon stock was converted into CO₂ equivalents. Density-diameter (d-d) curve was also prepared to check the regeneration status and stability of the plantation. A d-d curve indicates the good regeneration status of the forest with a stable population in each size class. Diversity of trees was very low, only two tree species Pinus roxburghii and Eucalyptus citriodora occurred in the sample plots. Pine was the dominant tree in terms of density, basal area, biomass, carbon stock and CO₂ stock than the eucalyptus. The basal area, carbon stock and CO₂ stock of forest was 33±1.0 ㎡ ha^-1, 108±5.0 Mg ha^-1 and 394±18 Mg ha^-1, respectively. Seedling and tree density of the plantation was 4,965 ha^-1 and 339 ha^-1 respectively. The forest carbon stock showed a positive relationship with biomass, tree diameter, height and basal area but no relationship with tree density. Canopy cover and tree diameter have a negative effect on seedling density and regeneration. In conclusion, the community forest has a stable population in each size class, sequestering a significant amount of carbon and CO₂ emitted from densely populated Kathmandu metro city as the forest biomass hence have a potentiality to mitigate the global climate change.
