옥상조경에 식재된 식물소재에 대한 종다양성 분석

Abstract

The following are the results of the analyses that investigated the status of the plants planted for rooftop landscaping, and their life and growth forms as well as the diagnoses of life form, species diversity and similarity of the plants by region and use of buildings. The analyses found that a total of 163 plants of 57 families, 124 genera, 128 species, 30 varieties and 5 races were planted for rooftop landscaping at 34 object sites. As for use of plants by building, 137 types of plants were planted for rooftop landscaping by public institutions, 34 by private houses, 30 in commercial areas, 20 by apartments, and 28 by schools. It can be seen from the analyses that the largest number of plants were used for rooftop landscaping by public institutions. In terms of species diversity, there was no significant difference by region and use of building, showing that plants for rooftop landscaping have been selected and designed indiscriminately without regard to the regional characteristics and function as well as use of buildings.
