Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the vegetation of wetland and terrestrial lands in Jangdo wetland conserved area in Korea and to analyze the characteristics of the vegetation changes in the recent years. From the plant community, there were evergreen broad-leaved forests of the Machilus thunbergii, Castanopsis cuspidata, and Machilus thunbergii-Castanopsis cuspidata communities. Moreover, there were deciduous broad-leaved forests of the Salix koreensis, Mallotus japonicus, Mallotus japonicus-Pueraria thunbergiana and Celtis sinensis communities. Additionally, there were shrub forests of the Rosa multiflora-Rubus hirsutus, grassland of Molinia japonica-Miscanthus sacchariflorus and Miscanthus sacchariflorus-Imperata cylindrica communities, and plantation forest of the Pseudosasa japonica community. The area of the wetland vegetation (15%) was much narrower than that of the terrestrial land vegetation (85%). Comparing these results with those of the past 10 years, the wetland plant communities decreased by one-third and the proportion of neutral or dry plant communities increased. In order to mitigate landization succession of the wetland and maintain native wetland vegetation in this area, the expansion of the Salix koreensis community must be controlled to a suitable scale. In addition, it is urgently required to remove the invasive non-wetland plants, such as Pseudosasa japonica and Pueraria thunbergiana.

한국에서 습지보호지역인 신안장도습지에서 습지 및 육상 식생을 조사하고 그 변화상을 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 출현한 식물군락은 후박나무군락, 구실잣밤나무군락, 후박나무-구실잣밤나무군락의 상록활엽수림과 버드나무군락, 예덕나무군락, 예덕나무-칡군락, 팽나무군락의 낙엽활엽수림, 찔레-장딸기군락의 관목림과 진퍼리새-물억새군락, 물억새-띠군락의 초원 그리고 이대군락의 식재림이었다. 그 중 습지식생(면적의 15%)은 육상식생(85%)보다 매우 좁았다. 이 결과를 과거의 10년 전의 것과 비교해 볼 때 습지성 식물군락이 1/3로 감소하고 그 대신 중성 또는 건성 식물군락의 비율이 증가하였다. 이 지역에서 일어나는 육화천이를 억제하고 고유한 습지식생을 유지하기 위해서는 버드나무군락의 세력의 확장을 적절한 규모 이하로 통제해야 한다. 그리고 이대군락 및 칡과 같은 습지외 식물들의 침입을 제어하는 물리적인 제거 등의 생태적 관리가 필요하다.
