This case study is about the sampling and interpretation of soil pore water in order to understand and to predict the diffusion and behavior of soil pollution. For the measurement of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) in two representative hydrocarbon-contaminated sites, the extraction system of the soil pore water was set up with respect to soil depths and the behavior of contaminants was interpreted. The soil solution extraction system consisted of peristaltic pump, and extraction and sampling compartment, and can measure simultaneously the soil water pressure. The concentration of PAHs with respect to extraction pressure and time decreased due to dilution through soil pore water. Particularly, the concentration of PAHs was more reduced under the unsaturated oxic condition than saturated anoxic condition. Therefore, the soil solution extraction with respect to soil water pressure can interpret the extent of equilibrium between porewater and soil surface.

계절에 따른 토양공극의 수리학적 변화를 파악하기 위해서 설마천 유역의 범륜사 독립사면과 광릉 원두부 소유역의 독립사면을 대상으로 장력침투실험을 실시하였다. 토양수분 확보에 신뢰를 받기위해서 TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry)및 현장에서 토양의 불포화 투수계수 측정이 가능한 장력침투계(Tension infiltrometer)를 이용하였다. 계절에 따른 자료수집을 위해서 2008년 3월 20일 부터 약 6주간격으로 10월 29일까지 5회에서 6회 토양수분 자료 및 토양장력침투 자료를 획득하였다. 획득한 자료를 이용하여 포화 및 불포화 수리전도도, 대공극 유효흐름분율(macropore flow), 대공극 유효부피분율을(effective macroporosity) 나타내었다. 분기별로 자료분석 결과 계절별 특성이 나타남을 알 수 있다. 수리전도도는 3월, 5월, 10월은 유사한 반면 6월과 7월 그리고 9월은 상대적으로 높았다. 이는 여름철에 공극 발달이 활발하다는 것을 의미한다. 선행토양수분은 수리전도도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 대공극의 발달은 삼림과 같은 복잡 경관에서는 강우사상에 따른 토양수분의 공간 분포 및 이송, 유출과정이 물순환에 영향을 미친다. 지형분석을 통한 공극의 흐름특성과 토양수분 유의성에 대하여 논의하였고, 대공극 변화에 밀접한 관계가 있는 식생과 그밖에 계절적으로 발달을 일으키는 요인을 모색 하였다. 본 연구는 계절에 따라 변하는 수리전도도를 기초로 하여 불포화대에서 토양공극의 수리학적 변화와 시공간적으로 침투흐름에 얼마나 영향을 주는가를 보여준다.

본 연구에서는 다양한 토지이용의 불교란 토양칼럼 시료를 대상으로 토양 물리화학 특성 및 자연강우에 대한 토양배수 양상을 분석하였다. 공극률은 토양컬럼에서의 유효공극률과 투수계수 및 자연강우에 대한 배수율과 대체로 정의 상관관계를 보인다. 미국 통일분류법에 따라 토양을 분류하였을 때 소성성이 낮은 실트질 토양과 점토질 토양은 유효공극률이 낮으면서 배수율도 낮고, 소성성이 없는 실트질이 섞인 자갈(유구-논)과 실트질 모래는 유효공극률이 비교적 높으면서 배수율이 다소 높았다. 불교란 토양컬럼을 완전 포화상태에서 자연배수할 때 대부분의 토양은 50시간 전후로 거의 다. 배수되며 $150{\sim}200$시간 경과되면 거의 모든 토양에서 완전배수가 되었다. 일부 500여시간이 경과되어도 지속적으로 배수되는 토양이 있는데 이는 토양수분보유특성에 기인하는 것으로 사료된다. 배수량으로 가정한 함양량 실측실험에서는 오송(전의)임야 > 무주-밭, 무주-논 > 유구-임야 > 김해-밭 > 유구-논, 유구-밭 순으로 높았으며 이들 시료들의 함양률은 50% 이상이었다. 토성에 따른 자연강우 배수상태를 보면, 소성성이 낮은 실트질 토양의 배수율이 낮고, 실트질 모래는 다양한 배수상태를 보이나 대체로 배수율이 높다. 그리고 1차, 2차 실험에서 선행 강우 5mm 미만은 토양배수에 영향을 미치지 않았다.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the mixture ratio of a soldier fly casts (SFC), compost and cocopeat on the soil physicochemical properties. The mixture ratios of soil amendment were 0%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 10% (V/V) incorporated with sand which met to the USGA particle standard. To analyze the effects of amendments on soil chemical properties, pH and EC were measured. The porosity, capillary porosity, air-filled porosity, bulk density and hydraulic conductivity also measured to analyze the physical properties. Chemical properties were significantly different by mixture ratios of a SFC, compost and cocopeat. Capillary porosity was a factor involved in soil physical properties by blending with a SFC and compost. It was affected on the volume of porosity or hydraulic conductivity. To analyze the correlation of mixture ratio versus to physical characters, the ratios of SFC were significantly different in capillary porosity, air-filled porosity, and hydraulic conductivity. These results indicated that mixing ratios of SFC were affected on soil physicochemical properties such as porosity and hydraulic conductivity of the root zone on the USGA sand green.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the mixture ratio of soil amendments blended with coco peat (Coco) and American soldier fly cast (SFC) on the physicochemical properties on the sand green. pH and EC of soil were significantly related to mixture ratio of SFC, Mix1, Mix2 and Mix3. Capillary porosity, air-capillary porosity and total porosity of root zone mixed SFC, Coco, Mix1, Mix2 and Mix3 were met to the USGA green specification. The mixture ratios of Mix1 and Mix2 in root zone were positively related capillary porosity and total porosity, and air-capillary porosity was negatively related capillary porosity and hydraulic conductivity. Capillary porosity of Mix1, Mix2 and Mix3 blended SFC and Coco was affected by SFC and Coco, and total porosity by Coco. These results showed that soil amendments blended SFC and Coco was developed capillary porosity and hydraulic conductivity on the USGA sand green than these of SFC.

Using fractal dimensionality theory proposed by Riew and Sposito (1991), we attempted to analyze quantitatively the characteristics of porous distribution for built-in soils in the mini-lysimeter and artificial seed-bed media. The 2" stainless core soil samples were taken from lysimeter soils. Artificial seed-bed media were compacted in the acrylic core filled with raw materials consisted of cocopeat, zeolite and perlite. N (Constant number of partitioned group size smaller media volumes) and r (Self-similarity ratio) parameters consisting of fractal dimension D=log(N)/log(1/r) were obtained by Excel Programme using the Riew and Sposito's fractal model. The pore distribution of tested media was screened in pore size and its occurring frequency. The results reveal that the distribution range of pores is wider in the lysimeter soils than in the seed-bed media, while average size of pores in the media is smaller in lysimeter core soils than in seed-bed media.

Tow Kinds of Soils, vertisol and alfisol, were selected and analyzed pore space distribution(PSD) by mercury intrusion method and soil water potential after freeze-drying from different water conditions, such as 0.033MPa, 1.5MPa and ovendry. The PSD values measured by mercury intrusion method were higher in large pores than the values from soil water potential. Also, there were big differences of PSD by the changes of the water content befor freeze-drying.

Until now, the pore size distribution, PSD, of soil profile has been calculated from soil moisture characteristic data by water release method or mercury porosimetry using the capillary rise equation. But the current methods are often difficult to use and time consuming. Thus, in this work, theoretical framework for an easy and fast technique was suggested to estimate the PSD from unsaturated hydraulic conductivity data in an undisturbed field soil profile. In this study, unsaturated hydraulic conductivity data were collected and simulated by the variation of soil parameters in the given boundary conditions (Brooks and Corey soil parameters, ${\alpha}_{BC}=1-5L^{-1}$, b = 1 - 10; van Genuchten soil parameters, ${\alpha}_{VG}=0.001-1.0L^{-1}$, m = 0.1 - 0.9). Then, $K_s$ (1.0 cm $h^{-1})$ was used as the fixed input parameter for the simulation of each models. The PSDs were estimated from the collected K(h) data by model simulation. In the simulation of Brooks-Corey parameter, the saturated hydraulic conductivity, $K_s$, played a role of scaling factor for unsaturated hydraulic conductivity, K(h) Changes of parameter b explained the shape of PSD curve of soil intimately, and a ${\alpha}_{BC}$ affected on the sensitivity of PSD curve. In the case of van Genuchten model, $K_s$ and ${\alpha}_{VG}$ played the role of scaling factor for a vertical axis and a horizontal axis, respectively. Parameter m described the shape of PSD curve and K(h) systematically. This study suggests that the new theoretical technique can be applied to the in situ prediction of PSD in undisturbed field soil.
