매립지 차수층에는 다짐점토층이 사용되고 있지만 건조/수축, 동결/융해 등의 환경적인 영향에 대한 내구성을 향상시키기 위한 기능성 복합차수층에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 원지반토양에 고화재를 첨가한 BLT층과 벤토나이트와 미생물 배양액을 첨가한 BLM 층으로 구성된 복합차수층의 차수기능과 BLM층에서 미생물 배양액 첨가에 따른 Bio-barrier 기능을 평가하였다. 원지반토양에 고화재와 벤토나이트를 각각 8, 10%(w/w)를 첨가하였r고, 미생물 배양액은 1%(v/w)을 첨가하였다. 실험결과 원지반토양은 SC계열의 토양으로 분류되었고, BLT, BLM 차수층의 8% 혼합비율에서도 1$\times$ $10^{-7}$cm/sec 보다 낮은 투수계수를 나타내었다. BLM 층에 첨가된 미생물 배양액에 의한 Bio-barrier 기능 실험결과 미생물 배양액 첨가에 의하여 침출수에 대한 내구성이 향상된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In order to conserve soil functions to the highest degree in development projects, it is necessary to identify and manage specific area (so called soil management area) including soils with good or excellent functions. Therefore, in this work, we conducted a preliminary study how to identify soil management area in environmental impact assessment on development projects. To do this, quantitative evaluation was carried out on two example projects, using InVEST model considering a couple of soil functions, i.e., erosion control and carbon sequestration functions. Then, soil management area was identified through overlay analysis. The methodology developed in this study is able to be used widely for more detailed analysis with high resolution and furthermore overlay anaysis with other assessment items. For more perfect assessment, other soil fuctions needed to be taken into account into our methodology.

Heavy metals leaching from closed mines have been causing severe environmental problems in nearby soil ecosystems. Mine reclamation in Korea has been recently implemented based on the heavy metal immobilization (a.k.a., stabilization). Since the immobilization temporarily fixes the heavy metals to the soil matrix, the potential risk of heavy metal leaching still exists. Therefore the appropriate monitoring and the related policies are required to safeguard the soils, where all the cultivations occur. The current monitoring methods are based on either heavy metal concentration or simple toxicity test. Those methods, however, are fragmented and hence it is difficult to evaluate the site in an integrated manner. In this study, as the integrated approach, ecological functional state evaluation with a multivariate statistical tool was employed targeting physiochemical soil properties, heavy metal concentrations, microbial enzymatic activity, and arsenic respiratory reductase gene quantity. Total 60 soil samples obtained from three mines (Pungjeong, Jeomdong, Seosung) were analyzed. As a result, the stabilized layer soil and lower layer soil have shown the similar pattern in Pungjeong mine. In contrast, Jeomdong and Seosung mine have shown the similarity between the stabilized layer soil and the cover layer soil, indicating the possible contamination of the cover layer soil.

토양에 함유된 수분은 식물의 생육뿐만 아니라 식물뿌리의 호흡, 미생물 활성 및 토양의 화학적 상태에 큰 영향을 미친다. 즉, 토양수분은 물에 용해된 무기물과 토양 내의 양분을 녹여 식물 뿌리로 흡수될 수 있도록 이동시키며, 토양 속의 온도를 조절하여 뿌리의 영양분 흡수 능력을 향상시키는 기능을 한다. 또한 토양 속으로 수분이 이동하면서 고갈된 산소를 공급하는 등의 중요한 기능을 하고 있다 (Hillel, 1980). 따라서 토양 내 수분이 과다하거나 부족한 경우 인위적으로 최적 상태의 함수비로 조절하는 물 관리 기술의 중요성이 대두되고 있으며 물 관리 기술의 개발에서 가장 중요한 기술 중의 하나는 토양의 수분 함량을 온라인으로 계측하는 것으로서 관개배구 자동화 기술의 핵심부분이라고 할 수 있다.

To restore the ecological function of contaminated soil and maximize the ecological services provided by the soil, besides the toxicity orrisk caused by pollutants, the functional aspects of the soil ecosystem should be considered. In this study, a method for evaluating the health of cleaned soil was presented, and the applicability of the proposed evaluation method was examined by applying it to soil treated with washing and landfarming. Productivity, habitat, water retention capacity, nutrient cycling, carbon retention capacity, and buffering capacity were used as soil health evaluation indicators. The results showed that the soil health was not completely recovered after remediation, and even in the case of the washed soil, the health was lower than before remediation. On the other hand, there was no significant change in soil quality due to oil pollution, but soil health deteriorated. Unlike the slightly improved soil quality after landfarming treatment, soil health was not completely restored. Therefore, the results of this study indicate that it is desirable to consider both soil quality and health when evaluating the remediation effect. The soil health evaluation method proposed in this study can be usefully utilized for the sustainable use of cleaned soil and to promote ecosystem services.

Multifunctionality of agriculture has been an important international issue in terms of environmental benefits and public concerns. We calculated soil loss mass in national basis using the USLE, and attempted to evaluate its economical benefits by replacement cost method. Soil loss mass ranged from 1.4 to $18MT\;ha^{-1}\;yr^{-1}$ was fairly fitted to measured values for 13 cropping systems. In national basis, the factors in USLE were evaluated as: 429.4 for rainfall and runoff factor. R, 0.15 for soil erodibility factor, K, 1.72 for topographic factor, LS, 0.275 for cover and management factor, C, and 0.856 for support practice factor, P. The soil loss estimated from upland farming using the USLE was $26.1MT\;ha^{-1}\;yr^{-1}$, but soil loss from the bare soil was $110.8MT\;ha^{-1}\;yr^{-1}$, the ratio of soil loss from upland farming to bare soil was 23 percents. Function of reducing soil loss in comparison with the bare soil was $84.7MT\;ha^{-1}\;yr^{-1}$, of which national soil loss mass was 62.6 million MT per annum in south Korea. Agriculture economic replacement cost of soil loss reduction was 497 billion Wons(398 million dollars) for the cost of upland soil dressing. For conservational purposes to increase the environmental benefits of upland farming, the agricultural practice including contour, strip cropping, terracing and division ditches should be implemented.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of mulching materials on the emergence rate, root dry weight and grain weight of sesame using variety Poong Nyun Ggae and also their effects on physical properties of soil, evapotranspiration and weed growth on the respective plots were studied. The effect of soil water holding capacity at mulching with polyethylene film and straw increased 5.4%, 2.8% to non-mulched plot respectively. The maximum soil temperature was raised up to 4$^{\circ}C$ by applying clear film and was dropped down to 7$^{\circ}C$ by straw. The minimum soil temperature was raised up to 2$^{\circ}C$ by clear film and was dropped down to 3$^{\circ}C$ by straw. In the early stage, the soil physical properties of clear film mulching were better than those of non mulching, and so was in emergence rate. In the late stage, soil strength was high at non mulching, and soil porosity, soil aeration and water infiltration rate were high at film and straw mulchings. Total root dry weight was great at clear film mulching, and root dry weight was concentrated mainly in the upper 10 cm of soil profile. The amount of weeds collected was the least at black film mulching. There were of little difference in evapotranspiration among treatments. The grain yield of sesame was increased to 57% by polyethylene film and 25% by straw mulching.
