Abstract

This research is performed in order to suggest seasonal effective research time that is applied to wild birds research which lives in a forest. The subject area of this research is Mulgun-ri village forest in Samdong-Myeon, Namhe-gun. To investigate suitability of the project, existing land-use, existing vegetation, vegetational structure, and etc. of the subject and whole area are figured out. To suggest adequate research time, based on seasonal sun rise and set time for 3days, repetitive research is performed at hourly intervals. The subject area is connected with a forest and is possible for forest wild birds to flows in and provides various habitats and feeding areas. And also the subject area is a appropriate area for wild birds research and is like a natural forest in that a layer structure development of the forest itself, a distribution of Zelkova serrata and Aphananthe aspera and so on. 105 species which is observed in subject area are categorized and mountain birds are classified. After time-based peak value is selected in each season, hourly species richness, diversity, and index of similarity are analyzed as compared with the appearing number of species and individual bird. As a result, 7~11 hour is the most effective time in spring, and 8~9 hour is the best time. In summer, 6~9 hour is the most appropriate time when whole appearing species are similar to species structure. In fall, 7~11(30~60 minutes after sun rise) when wild birds movements are vigorous is analyzed easy to observe and 8~9 hour is the most appropriate research time because each analysis shows the best values. In winter, 7~12 hour is the most effective time although 10~11 hour is the best time but it is decided that similar results are drawn because hourly deviation is not so big except 1 hour before sun rise. In every four season, it is decided that 30~60 minutes after sun rise is appropriate to research a group of wild birds in the subject area.

본 연구는 산림을 기반으로 서식하는 야생조류의 효율적인 조사시간을 계절별로 제시하기 위하여 남해군 삼동면 물건리 방조어부림을 대상으로 수행하였다. 적합성을 규명하기 위해 대상지 및 일대의 토지이용현황, 현존식생, 식생구조 등을 파악하였으며, 산림성 야생조류의 적정 조사시간을 제안하고자 계절별 3일간 일출 몰 시간을 기준하여 1시간 간격으로 반복 조사하였다. 방조어부림은 주변 산림과 연결되어 산림성 야생조류의 유입이 가능하고 숲 자체의 층위구조 발달, 대경목의 느티나무와 푸조나무가 분포하는 등 자연림과 유사하여 다양한 서식처 및 채이장소를 제공할 수 있어 야생조류를 연구하기에 적합한 장소이다. 관찰된 105종을 유형화하여 산새류를 구분하였고 각 계절별로 시간대별 최고값을 선정한 후 총 출현 종수 및 개체수에 대해 시간대별 종풍부도, 종다양도, 유사도지수를 분석하였다. 그 결과 봄철에는 8~9시까지가 최적의 조사시간이었고 여름철에는 전체 출현종과의 종구성이 유사한 6~9시의 시간대가 적정 조사시간이었다. 가을철에는 일출 후 30~60분 이후부터인 오전 7시부터 11시까지의 시간대에 야생조류의 움직임이 활발하여 관찰이 용이한 것으로 분석되었으며 그 중 8~9시에 종풍부도가 가장 높아 최적의 조사시간이었다. 겨울철은 7~12시의 시간대가 효율적이며 10~11시가 최적 시간이나 일몰 전 1시간을 제외하면 시간대별 편차가 크지 않아 유사한 결과를 도출할 수 있을 것이다. 4계절 모두 일출 후 30~60분 후부터 조사를 실시하는 것이 대상지역의 야생조류 군집을 파악하기에 바람직한 것으로 판단되었다.
