Abstract

To identify the overall status of vegetation in the nine ridges of the Jeongmaeks located in South Korea, the types of forest vegetation were analyzed with focus on the names of the plant communities that appeared in each Jeongmaek. The vegetation investigation data for the entire mountain ranges were used for quantitative analysis (TWINSPAN, DCA), thereby classifying the plant communities and understanding the structures and characteristics of the vegetation. Upon review of the ratios of the number of plant communities by each ridge of the Jeongmaeks, a relatively larger number of communities were found to be dominated by deciduous oak trees in the Honam and Nakdong Jeongmaek. In addition, the ratios of communities where deciduous oak trees and deciduous broad-leaved trees appeared were higher in the Hannam-geumbuk, Nakdong, Honam, Geumnam-honam, Geumnam and Geumbuk Jeongmaeks. On the other hand, Naknam, Hannam, and Hanbuk Jeongmaeks were shown to have the type of forest vegetation in which the ratio of artificial forests was high. According to the results of the quantitative analysis, eight communities were grouped as follows: Celtis sinensis-Mallotus japonicus, Deciduous oak, Pinus thunbergii-P. rigida, Quercus mongolica-P. densiflora, Q. mongolica-Q. variabilis, Q. mongolica-P. densiflora, Q. mongolica-broad-leaved deciduous and Q. mongolica-P. koraiensis communities. The typical forest vegetations in the Jeongmaeks were the Q. mongolica-dominant community, the P. densiflora-dominant community, and the deciduous oak-dominant community.

남한지역에 위치한 9곳의 정맥 마루금을 대상으로 식생상황을 파악하기 위해 각 정맥별로 출현한 식물군락명을 중심으로 산림식생유형을 분석하였고, 전체 정맥의 식생조사 데이터로 정량적 분석(TWINSPAN, DCA)을 실시하여 식물군락 분류 및 식생구조 특성을 파악하였다. 정맥별 출현군락명의 비율은 호남 및 낙동정맥에서 신갈나무, 굴참나무 등의 낙엽성 참나무류 우점군락이 상대적으로 많았다. 또한, 한남금북, 낙동, 호남, 금남호남, 금남, 금북정맥에서는 타 정맥에 비해 낙엽성 참나무류 및 낙엽활엽수류 출현군락명의 비율이 비교적 높았다. 이에 비해, 낙남과 한남, 한북정맥은 인공림 출현군락명의 비율이 높은 산림식생유형을 보였다. 정량적 분석 결과, 8개의 군락이 그룹화되었는데 그 군락은 팽나무-예덕나무군락, 낙엽성 참나무류군락, 곰솔-리기다소나무림, 소나무-신갈나무군락, 신갈나무-굴참나무군락, 신갈나무-소나무군락, 신갈나무-낙엽활엽수군락, 신갈나무-잣나무군락이었다. 정맥을 대표하는 산림식생유형은 신갈나무 우점군락, 소나무 우점군락, 낙엽성 참나무류군락 등이었다.
