We observed the physical and chemical properties of a soil on pine mushroom picking areas where were located in the most upper and lower parts showing a comparative climatic characteristics in Korea. The slope gradients within the investigation areas which were divided into 100 quadrates of $1m^2$ ranged from $5.7{\sim}8.6{\beta}$ to $24{\sim}22.7{\beta}$ (left to right) and $4.5{\sim}6.8{\beta}$ to $13.5{\sim}17.8{\beta}$ (top to bottom) for Ponghwa and Gansung, respectively. The amount of clay and thickness of organic matter were significantly decreased with increasing slope gradient, resulting in decrease of the soil moisture content around a fairly ring-colony of Tricholoma matsutake which was observed under the relatively thicker organic matter layer beyond 3 cm depth. Soil pHswere weak acid and average EC was $0.44dS\;m^{-1}$ in both areas. The cations were in the order of Fe K > Na > Mg > Ca and Fe > K > Na > Ca > Mg for the upper(Gansung) and the lower (Ponghwa) part. And the amount of Fe was approximately $80dS\;m^{-1}$ or greater in the pine mushroom picking soil. From this, we could assume that the growth of the pine mushroom was closely related not only with iron but also soil moisture content.

This study was performed to determine carbon (C) storage of urban parks [Hadae park (established year: 1977), Songlim park (established year: 1990), Pyeonggeo park (1992), Chojeon park (2005)] in Jinju-si, Gyeongsangnam-do. The soil at 0-30 cm depth was collected to measure soil C concentration. Bulk density in all soil depths was not significantly different among the four parks, whereas coarse fragments (>2 mm) were significantly higher in the Chojeon park than in the Pyeonggeo park. Soil pH and electrical conductivity were highest in Chojeon park among four parks. Soil C concentrations in all soil depths were significantly higher in the Hadae park established in 19 77 compared with the other parks established since 1990. Mean soil C concentration at 0-30 cm was the highest in the Hadae park (1.04%), followed by the Chojeon park (0.87%), the Songlim park (0.75%), and the Pyeonggeo park (0.57%). Soil C storage at 0-10 cm was not significantly different among the four urban parks, whereas soil C storage at 10-20 cm and 20-30 cm was higher in the Hadae parks than in the other parks. Total soil C storage was significantly higher in the Hadae park (28,425 kg C ha^-1) than in the Pyeonggeo park (15,622 kg C ha^-1). Mean soil C concentration and C storage were positively correlated with silt content and negatively correlated with sand content. The results suggest that soil C storage of urban parks in Jinju-si might be related to the established period of parks and silt contents.

토양수분은 수문 분석에 있어 매우 중요한 인자 중 하나이며 최근 기후변화로 인한 가뭄, 홍수 및 산불발생과 같은 물 관련 재해 발생에 직 간접적으로 영향을 미치기 때문에 지표 토양수분산정은 매우 중요하다. Sentinel-1 SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar)는 능동형 위성으로 10m의 공간해상도로 제공되기 때문에 기존의 토양수분 전용위성인 SMOS(Soil Moisure and Ocean Salinity), SMAP(Soil Moisture Active Passive) 및 GCOM-W1(Global Change Observation Mission Water) 등 다르게 고해상도 토양수분 산정이 가능하다. 그러나 Sentinel-1 SAR 센서에서는 고해상도 지표 관측 이미지 자료만 제공하며, 토양수분 자료를 직접적으로 제공하지 않는다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2018년도 Sentinel-1 A/B IW(Interferometric Wide swath) 모드의 VH(Vertical Transmit - Horizontal Receive) 편파 영상과 Sentinel-1 SAR 위성자료 전처리 도구인 SNAP(Sentinel Application Platform)을 이용하여 후방산란계수를 산정하였으며, 산정된 후 방산란계수와 농촌진흥청에서 제공하는 65개 지점의 실측 TDR(Time Domain Reflectrometry) 토양수분의 관계를 이용하여 회귀모형을 도출 및 토양수분 공간분포를 산정하였다. 비록 불확실성은 어느정도 발생 하였으나, 전체적으로 TDR 관측값과 $10m{\times}10m$ 해상도의 Sentinel-1 SAR 기반 토양수분이 일치하는 경향을 보였다. 본 연구 결과는 수문, 농업, 산림, 재해 등 다양한 분야에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

최근 산림지 및 조림지역에의 축산 분뇨 액비 처리가 자연순환농업의 일환으로써 하나의 대안으로 대두되고 있는데 액비처리에 의한 환경영향, 특히 수분 및 영양성분 수지의 불균형을 초래하여 수질 오염 및 토양에 과잉 영양분을 축적할 우려가 있어 이에 수질에 미치는 영향에 대한 모니터링과 분석 시행함으로써 적용의 문제점 및 대책 방안 도출이 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 산림 유역에서 SCB액비 처리에 따른 지하수에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 지하수의 수질 모니터링을 실시하였다. 질산태 질소 중심으로 SCB액비 처리에 의한 지하수의 수질 영향을 분석하고, 질소 동위원소비를 이용하여 지하수의 질산태 질소 오염원을 판별하였다. 그 결과 바이오순환림이 액비처리에 의해 지하수 하류부에서 질산태 질소가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었는데, 이는 질소 동위원소비 분석 결과, 액비로부터 침출된 것으로 분석되었다. 반면에 유휴지의 경우, 액비 시용으로 인한 지하수 수질 영향은 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 추후 SCB액비 시용에 따른 산림유역에 대해서 지속적인 모니터링과 샘플링을 실시하여 다양한 항목에 대한 조사 및 분석을 이루어진다면 조림지와 같은 산림지역에서의 SCB액비 시용에 따른 수질 영향 모델링 및 모형 구축의 기초 자료로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

To understand the difference of runoff discharge processes between Gwangneung deciduous and coniferous forest catchments, we collected hydrological data (e.g., precipitation, soil moisture, runoff discharge) and conducted hydrochemical analyses in the deciduous and coniferous forest catchments in Gwangneung National Arboretum in the northwest part of South Korea. Based on the end-member mixing analysis of the three storm events during the summer monsoon in 2005, the hillslope runoff in the deciduous forest catchment was higher 20% than the coniferousforest catchment during the firststorm event. Howerver, hillslope runoff increased from the second storm event in the coniferous catchment. We conclude that low soil water contents and topographical gradient characteristics highly influence runoff in the coniferous forest catchment during the first storm events. In general, coniferous forests are shown high interception loss and low soil moisture compared to the deciduous forests. It may also be more likely to be a reduction in soil porosity development when artificial coniferous forests reduced soil biodiversity. The forest soil porosity is an important indicator to determine the water recharge of the forest. Therefore, in order to secure the water resources, it should be managed coniferous forests for improving soil biodiversity and porosity.

This study was conducted to distribution characteristic of root diameter class between natural and planted stands of one-age class in Pinus densiflora for. eracta in Gangwon. Root development presented that 0.5-2.0 mm diameter class was large part in total root number and length but 0.5-2.0 mm diameter class have a low distribution in each stand. Below 5.0 mm diameter class between natural and planted stands observed outstanding natural stand more than planted stand, but reverse over 5.0 mm diameter class. Root development depending on soil level of vertical and horizontal was presented various natural stand more than planted stand because root distribution of planted stand was concentrated low soil level in 10 cm of soil depth and 20 cm of soil horizontal layer. We can understand that the root distribution presented different between natural and planted stand, therefore this result can used as a basic information for correct of outplanting.

The characteristics of forest environmental factors were analyzed using the quantification theory (I) for prediction of the suitable area of erosion control dams. The results indicated that sediment discharge in small forest catchments was significantly correlated with dredging passage (0.7495) and age class (0.6000). In contrast, area (0.3416), slope gradient (0.3207), rainfall (0.3160), altitude (0.2990) and soil type (0.2192) were poorly correlated. Following quantification theory (I), we developed a selection decision table for erosion control dams based on sediment discharge rate as class I (highly suitable site, greater than 2.2496), class II (suitable site, 1.1248~2.2495), and class III (poorly suited site, lower than 1.1247).

This study is about the actual condition of forest devastation in North Korea and the cooperative plan between South and North Korea for the restoration. In other words, it aims to derive policy implications for 'forest restoration' from the phenomenon of severe forest devastation in North Korea. It is because forest devastation in North Korea causes floods, droughts, and soil losses on the Korean Peninsula, adding to food shortages, and assuming that the future unification of the two Koreas, the cost of forest restoration in North Korea will increase environmentally and economically. Therefore, this study derives policy implications by examining the causes and conditions of forest devastation in North Korea and comparing the differences and commonalities of forest policies in South and North Korea through analysis of forest policy strategies in North Korea.

Soil adsorption study was carried out to define the mobility of pesticides and to evaluate leaching potential in soils. Nine pesticides including metolcarb, molinate, fenobucarb, isazofos, diazinon, fenitrothion, dimepiperate, parathion and chlorpyrifos-methyl were subjected to adsorption experiment for four types of soils, such as upland, paddy, forest and volcanic ash soil. Based on Koc values, metolcarb and molinate were classified as mobile, fenobucarb as mobile or moderately mobile isazofos as moderately mobile, diazinon, fenitrothin, dimepiperate, and parathion as slightly or moderately mobile and chlorpyrifos-methyl as slightly mobile. Two evaluation methods, Groundwater Ubiquity Score (GUS) index and standard indices of soil-chemical adsorption and biodegradation (half-life), were used for the estimation of pesticide leaching potential. Leachabilities of metolcarb, molinate and fenobucarb were evaluated as high, and isazofos, dimepiperate and diazinon as a little potential, while fenitrothion, parthion and chlorpyrifos-methyl showed very low leaching potential. The leaching potential of pesticides was determined on the basis of intrinsic properties of the pesticides and the soil properties. Among the soil properties, organic matter gave a great influence on the leachability in soil. Therefore, leachabilities of the pesticides used were expected less in Sineom soil with relatively higher organic matter than Gangseo, Jungdong and Yesan soil with lower organic matter.
