3 3/37 Global mean temperature near the Earth's surface rose 0.74±0.18°C during the past century. Climate models referenced by the IPCC project that global surface temperatures are likely to increase by 1.1 to 6.4 °C between 1990 and 2100. The effects of global warming is becoming more apparent on various parts of the world including dynamics in natural ecosystems. Backgrounds

4 4/37 Backgrounds ① Camellia japonica L. ① ② Sasa quelpaertensis Nakai ② 1996 2000 2005 ③ Quercus mongolica ③

5 5/37 To choose a suitable climate model in the Korea To verify connection between plant communities and environmental factors To predict potential distribution of Pinus densiflora, Quercus Spp., Alpine Plants and Evergreen Broad- Leaved Plants To assess a vulnerable area in climate change Objectives
