Abstract

본 연구는 백두대간 남부권역의 황악산, 박석산, 덕유산, 지리산 등 네 지역을 대상으로 복잡 다양한 천연림 군집을 분류하고 산림피복유형을 집약하였다. 점표본법을 이용하여 851개의 표본점에서 식생자료를 수집하였다. 조사된 식생자료를 대상으로 Cluster 분석을 실시하여 총 18개 군집으로 분류하였으며, 분류된 군집의 상층 수종 구성의 유사성을 바탕으로 중생혼합림형, 기타활엽수림형, 굴참나무-졸참나무림형, 신갈나무림형, 소나무림형, 서어나무림형, 구상나무림형 등 총 7개의 산림피복유형으로 집약하였다. 연구 대상지에서 신갈나무림형이 가장 넓게 분포하였고, 위도가 낮아질수록 신갈나무림형이 분포하는 평균해발고는 높아졌다. 중생혼합림형과 기타활엽수림형은 계곡에 많이 분포하였고, 신갈나무림형과 소나무림형은 능선 부위에 많이 분포하는 경향이 있었다. This study was carried out to classify forest communities and to aggregate forest cover types for the complex and diversified natural forest areas of Hwangaksan, Bakseoksan, Deogyusan, and Jirisan in southern region of Baekdudaegan Mountains. The vegetation data were collected by point-centered quarter sampling method. Eight hundred fifty one sample points were subjected to cluster analysis to classify 18 forest communities, which were aggregated into 7 representative forest cover types on the basis of community similarity from composition of canopy species. They were mixed mesophytic forest cover type, the others deciduous forest cover type, Quercus variabilis-Quercus serrata cover type, Quercus mongolica cover type, Pinus densiflora cover type, Carpinus laxiflora cover type, and Abies koreana cover type. The Quercus mongolica cover type was most widely distributed in the study areas, and this cover type tended to occur in the place of higher altitude as latitude was getting lower. Mixed mesophytic forest and the others deciduous forest cover type were commonly distributed in the areas of valley, on the other hand, Quercus mongolica cover type and Pinus densiflora cover type tended to be distributed in the areas of ridge.
