Characteristics of quantiy and quality for bulk precipitation and stemflow of 5 tree species in Mt. Joongwang, Gangwon-do - A centering around the pH value

摘要

The objectives of this study were to investigate inputs and pH values of stemflow of bulk precipitation and 5 tree species (Deciduous species : Quercus mongolica, Betula costata, Kaloppanax septemlobus, Fraxinus rhynchophylla, Plantation species : Larix kaempferi), in Mt. Joongwang, Pyongchang-gun, Gangwon-do, from June to October in 2004 and 2005. The amount of stemflow during study period was the greatest in Q. mongolica (9.9 mm), and B. costata (7.5 mm), K. setemlobus (5.9 mm), L. kaempferi (3.8 mm), F rhynchophylla (3.2 mm), respectively. Stemflow of each species increased with bulk precipitation. Increment with bulk precipitation was smaller in 2004 when the intense bulk precipitation occurred more. pH values of stemflow was the highest in F rhynchophylla (5.91), and K. setemlobus (5.64), B. costata (5.80), Q. mongolica (5.56), L. kaempferi (5.25), respectively. Generally, pH values of stemflow of all species increased with bulk precipitation pH value, and lower than that (6.39).
