Abstract

This study was done to classify the vegetation structure and ecological characteristics in Nakdong-jeongmaek. Therefore, we set up 34 plots($100m^2$) in 9km range. As a result of vegetation analysis, the vegetation of Seongsi valley was classified into the type of 6 communities i.e. Pinus densiflora community, Quercus variabilis community, Q. mongolica community, Q. serrata community, Betula schmidtii community, Larix leptolepis community. The average number of species and individuals were ranged from 8.5~10.5 and 27.5~75.6 respectively. Species diversity index(H') of groups were ranged from 0.6061~0.8736 per units, and it was highest and lowest in B. schmidtii and P. densiflora communities respectively. Similarity index of groups were slightly low. It was low in P. densiflora community, Q. mongolica community and L. leptolepis community, and lowest in Q. variabilis-Q. mongolica community.

낙동정맥 구간 중 성시골 지역의 식생구조를 파악하기 위하여 총 9km 구간을 대상으로 $10m{\times}10m$($100m^2$) 방형구34개소를 설치하여 주요 환경인자 및 식생구조를 조사하였다. 낙동정맥 성시골 지역의 식물군락은 소나무군락, 박달나무군락, 굴참나무군락, 졸참나무군락, 신갈나무군락, 일본잎갈나무군락의 6개 유형으로 구분되었다. 단위면적($100m^2$)당 군락별 평균 출현 종수는 8.5~10.5종이었고, 출현 개체수는 평균 27.5~175.6개체이었다. 종다양도지수는0.6061~0.8736로 나타났으며 소나무군락이 가장 낮았고 박달나무군락이 가장 높았다. 유사도지수는 10.03~39.72로비교적 낮았으며 소나무군락 및 신갈나무군락과 일본잎갈나무군락의 유사도가 가장 낮았고 굴참나무군락과 신갈나무군락의 유사도가 가장 높았다.
