Infection Properties of Oak Wilt Disease in Bukhansan National Park Adjacent to Metropolitan Areas in Korea
Journal of Environmental Science International pISSN: 1225-4517 eISSN: 2287-3503 26(7); 803~815; July 2017 https://doi.org/10.5322/JESI.2017.26.7.803 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Infection Properties of Oak Wilt Disease in Bukhansan National Park Adjacent to Metropolitan Areas in Korea Jin-Woo Choi, Jung-Hun Yeum1)* Environmental Ecosystem Research Foundation, Seoul 05643, Korea 1)National Wetlands Center, National Institute of Environmental Research, Changnyeong 50303, Korea Abstract In this study of the oak wilt disease that has occurred in a large scale in a protected area located near South Korea’s metropolitan region, a detailed analysis has been conducted on the terrain, species and Diameters at Breast Height (DBH) of infected trees to identify the distribution of infection properties in the affected area. Taking into consideration the distribution of oak tree vegetation, a total of 4,640 quadrats in a size of 10 m by 10 m, have been set; and oak tree species, the DBH and infection damage per quadrat have been investigated. Geological properties have been analyzed according to elevation, slope, aspect and micro topography while a weighted value has been given according to the degree of infection in order to calculate an infection index. Through correlation analysis, the infection ratio of seriously-damaged and withered trees and the infection index have been analyzed with regards to the geological properties, tree species and DBH. The analysis shows that the disease tends to affect an area with medium elevation rather than those in the highest or lowest areas and that serious damage has been observed at rugged spots with a steep gradient (more than 30°). -

Seoraksan National Park, South Korea
Seoraksan National Park, South Korea Rugged mountains at Seoraksan National Park, South Korea Spread across 398.539 square kilometers, the Seoraksan National Park features the mighty Mount Seoraksan (also known as Mt. Sorak) with ridges, peaks, valleys, waterfalls, flora, fauna, and a number of historical structures. This mountain is part of the Taebaek mountain range in the eastern part of South Korea. Its natural sights make it one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country. As you enter through So Gong Won, the entrance gate to the Seoraksan National Park, you will be drawn towards the panoramic views of the Seoraksan Mountain. A day tour of Seoraksan usually involves sightseeing the Giant Bronze Buddha statue, Sinheungsa Temple, Gwongeumseong Fortress (after a wondrous cable car ride), Yongpyong Dragon Peak, and the Biseondae Cliff. If you have some more time or another day to spare, you can go on a hike to see the 7th-century Baekdamsa Temple. Seoraksan Hiking & Camping Seoraksan is, in fact, a hiker’s paradise. It has numerous hiking courses on offer that lead to some of the most stunning and diverse landscapes, like the Biryong Falls, Daecheongbong Peak (highest in Seoraksan), Gongnyong Ridge, Ulsan Bawi rock formations, Heullimgol Valley, and Geumganggul Cave. The courses range from a day to three days, and are determined according to their difficulty level and distance. While hiking around you may spot a wide range of wildlife species like the Musk Deer and Koral Goral. The park is also home to over 1,400 rare species of plants. Another popular activity in Seoraksan is camping. -
