초록

Mollic Hapludalfs로 분류되고 있는 장호통을 재분류하기 위하여 장호통 대표단면의 형태적 특성을 조사하고, Soil Taxonomy의 표준 분석방법인 Soil Survey Laboratory Methods Manual에 따라서 토양을 분석하여 Laboratory data sheets를 작성하였다. BAt층에서 BCt층 (14~120+ cm)까지 점토집적층인 argillic층을 이루고 있다. 기준깊이인 argillic층 상부 경계 하부 125 cm 깊이, 즉 139 cm 깊이에서의 염기포화도 (양이온 합)가 20.7%로 낮으며, 기준깊이 뿐만 아니라 전 토층에서 염기포화도 (양이온 합)가 35% 미만으로 낮다. 따라서 장호통은 Alfisols이 아니라 Ultisols로 분류되어야 한다. Argillic층의 상부 15 cm 깊이에서 유기탄소 함량이 $12.8\;g\;kg^{-1}$으로 $9\;g\;kg^{-1}$ 이상이라는 조건을 충족시키고 있으며, 또는 $1m^2$ 면적의 깊이 100 cm까지 단위용적당 유기탄소 함량이 15.7 kg으로 12 kg 이상이라는 분류기준을 충족시키므로 아목은 Humults로 분류 된다. 우리나라에 분포하는 Ultisols은 모두 Udults로 분류되고 있는데, 장호통은 Humults 아목으로 분류될 수 있다. 기준깊이에서 fragipan, kandic층, sombric층, plinthite 등을 보유하지 않으며, Haplohumults의 분류 기준을 충족시키고 있다. 아군은 Typic 분류기준을 충족시키므로 Typic Haplohumults로 분류된다. 토성 속 제어부위에서의 점토함량이 35% 이상이고, mesic 토양온도상을 보유하고 있다. 따라서 장호통은 fine silty over clayey, mixed, mesic family of Mollic Hapludalfs가 아니라 fine, mixed, mesic family of Typic Haplohumults로 분류되어야 한다.

This study was conducted to reclassify Jangho series based on the second edition of Soil Taxonomy : A Basic System of Soil Classification for Making and Interpreting Soil Surveys. Morphological properties of typifying pedon of Jangho series were investigated and physico-chemical properties were analyzed according to Soil Survey Laboratory Methods Manual. The typifying pedon of Jangho series has very dark grayish brown (10YR 3/2) gravelly silt loam A horizon (0~14 cm), very dark brown (7.5YR 3/2) silty clay BAt horizon (14~31 cm), dark brown (7.5YR 3/4) silty clay Bt1 horizon (31~58 cm), brown (7.5YR 4/4) silty clay Bt2 horizon (58~90 cm), and brown (7.5YR 4/4) clay Bt3 (90~120 cm) horizon. That is developed on river terraces. The typifying pedon has an argillic horizon from a depth of 14 to more than 120 cm and a base saturation (sum of cations) of less than 35% at 125 cm below the upper boundary of the argillic horizon. That can be classified as Ultisol. The typifying pedon has 0.9 % or more organic carbon in the upper 15 cm of the argillic horizon, and can be classified as Humult, which is reported for the first time in Korea. That does not have fragipan, kandic horizon, sombric horizon, plinthite, etc. in the given depths, and keys out as Haplohumult. Also that meets the requirements of Typic Haplohumult. That has 35 % or more clay at the particle-size control section, and has mesic soil temperature regime. Jangho series can be classified as fine, mixed, mesic family of Typic Haplohumults, not as fine silty over clayey, mixed, mesic family of Mollic Hapludalfs.
