| Popis: | The coppice forests (summer-green secondary forests) in Sanda city, Hyogo Prefecture were managed by cutting lucidophyllous shrubs and bamboo grasses for the purpose of creating the physiognomy of summer-green high forests, increasing the species richness in the forests and proposing a method of the management of the coppice forests by citizen participation. Six quadrates of 100m² were set in the forests, which were identified with Quercetum variabili-serratae. Persons ranging from 8 to 15 investigated the floristic composition and tree census, and managed the vegetation of each quadrate. In this method of forest management, lucidophyllous shrubs and bamboo grasses were cut one species after another species, and the time required for cutting and the number of individuals each species were recorded. The basic rate needed for the above mentioned management work of the coppice forest by citizen participation was 5.1m² per man-hour. |
