A series of soil surveys was conducted in 102 high yielding paddies randomly selected. Each paddy field was the contest winner's in a county, a province or the nationwide during 1976 to 1979. The data on soils and yields of the paddies were evaluated to find out the better practices. Cultivation practices such as intermittent irrigation, deep ploughing and application of soil improvement materials were intensively carried out with the increasing rates of yield. But, the yield of rice in the high yielding paddies was not significantly different according to the paddy soil type or the suitability calss. About 70% of the high yielding paddies were distributed in loam and silty clay loam. The properties of top soil in the high yielding paddies were more improved as compared with the common paddies. The cultivated soil depth and nutrient holding capacity were thought of as the important soil factors for high yield.

This study was conducted to establish the selection criteria for the trees to be transplanted in the forest reserves which are expected to be developed in the future. The main task in this endeavor was to access the transplantability of the trees focused on their feature, diameter at breast height (D.B.H.), soil feature, etc. The selection of the trees for transplantation consisted of two stages. The first stage was to select trees on the basis of their indigenousness and forest successional stage. The second was to select trees on the basis of their type, D.B.H., the layers of soil, etc. At the first stage, the trees which are not indigenous or expected not to survive were eliminated from the selection list, and the result showed that approximately 5.9% (about 3,841 trees) of the trees proved to be inadequate for transplanting. At the second stage, the investigation of the trees based on the criteria of tree type, D.B.H., the layers of soil was carried out, and the result showed that approximately 33.7% (1,218) out of 3,613 trees turned out to adequate for transplanting however, 23.0% of the trees, which are 829 trees, were found to be impossible to transplant. In addition, it was discovered that in the case of approximately 43.3%(1,566 trees) of the trees there was little difference between transplanting cost and planting cost of new trees. Therefore the investigation indicated that it is more advisable to transplant trees to preserve the ecological environment. However, the study showed that there are other elements to be considered, such as tree feature and soil condition, for the successful tree transplantation, and the necessary information can be provided by the managing personnel who are in charge of the forest.

수문학적 토양유형은 복잡하게 세분되어 있는 토양의 종류를 수문학적인 목적에 따라 단순화하기 위해 만든 것으로 미농무성 토양보전국에서 고안한 개념이다. 우리나라 토양을 이 방법으로 구분하고자 하는 몇번의 시도가 있으며 그 중 대표적인 것이 정 등(1995)이 분류한 수문학적 토양군이다. 이는 토양의 침투 투수특성에 대한 실측자료가 부족한 우리나라의 실정을 감안하여 토성속(textural family), 배수등급(drainage class), 불투수층(impermeable layer), 투수성(permeability)의 네가지 토양특성을 분류특성으로 하여 각각에 1-4점 범위로 점수를 매긴 후 합산한 점수를 기준으로 수문학적 토양유형을 분류하는 것이다. 최근에는 토양의 한계침투속도에 따라 수문학적 토양유형을 분류하고자 하는 시도가 있으며 본 논문에서는 새로운 방법으로 분류할 때 기존의 방법과 어떠한 차이가 있는지 비교하고자 하였다. 정 등(1995)의 분류방법은 개념상 몇가지 문제점을 안고 있다. 먼저 토양의 수리특성은 같은 토성속이라 하여도 토양생성 과정과 토지이용 방법에 따라 그 차이가 매우 큼에도 불구하고 이에 대해 고려하지 못하였으며 다음으로 지표유거가 많아 배수가 양호한 토양의 강우 유출을 과소평가한다. 또한 얕은 토심에 존재하는 불투수층이 존재하는 경우 토양의 수리특성에 관계없이 적은 양의 강우에도 유출이 발생하므로 별도의 제한인자로 간주하여야 한다. 토양의 한계 침투속도를 이용한 분류방법은 이러한 문제점을 상당 부분 개선할 수 있다. 토양의 한계침투속도를 산정하기 위해 현장에서 지표 한계침투속도와 투수속도를 측정하였으며 이 자료를 확장하여 해석하기 위해 입자특성을 이용한 Pedo Transfer Function을 개발하였다. 토심 50 cm 포화시 토양 투수성을 한계 침투속도로 가정하였으며 50 cm 이내에 암반층과 지하수위가 존재할 경우 투수성에 관계없이 D유형으로 분류하였다. 새로운 방법으로 분류한 결과 기존의 분류와 몇가지 차이점이 발견되었다. 가장 큰 차이는 대부분의 논토양이 느린 한계침투속도의 영향으로 D유형에 속한 것이다. 산림토양과 밭토양은 기존 방법과 마찬가지로 A, B유형이 많았으며 암반층을 고려하기 전에는 기존 분류에 비해 강우 유출 가능성이 적은 쪽으로 평가되었다. 그러나 암반층이 존재하는 토양을 고려한 결과 A 또는 B 유형에 속하던 상당수의 산림토양이 새로운 분류에서 D유형으로 분류되었다. 지표 유거가 많아 배수등급이 매우양호로 분류되던 토양은 정 등(1995)의 분류와 비교하여 대부분 강우 유출 가능성이 큰 쪽으로 조정되었다. 새로운 수문학적 토양유형을 이용할 경우 낮은 토심에서 암반층이 발견되는 산림토양이 분포한 유역이나 산림, 밭 등에 식질 토양이 많이 분포하는 유역에서는 기존의 방법을 이용하는 것보다 강우 유출량이 높게 평가될 것으로 판단된다. 앞으로 강우 유출량 실측자료와의 비교를 통해 지속적인 보정을 하여야 할 것이며 특히 불투수층의 존재시 일괄적으로 D유형으로 분류된 토양의 경우 깊이에 따라 C 또는 D 유형으로 세분하여 조정할 필요가 있다.

To give basic information on the agricultural mechanization and multiple cropping adoptability of the paddified clayey terrace soils which have poor permeability and poor adoptability to mechanization, a scheme of drainage classification as well as taxonomic classification was intended. 1. The degrees of gleization of terrace paddy soils were well distinguished by the comparison of "Redness rating" of their profiles. 2. When the criteria of "Imperfectly drained" soils were defined as follows; Soils have more than 50cm of accumulated depth which has less than 0.5 in Redness rating within 1.2m of the profile, the Geugrag series could be classified to "Imperfectly drained." The tentative classification of drainage class of Geugrag soils seemed to well matching with land suitability groups, and give possibility of drainage recommendation in the case of dry land crop cultivation. 3. The Geugrag soil which was well paddified by artificial surface irrigation, could be proposed to classify "Anthroaquic Ochraqualfs."

The pollution status of heavy metals in the soils of children's playground was investigated for a sustainable soil environment in urban parks of Seoul. As sampling sites, 281 locations were selected from a 7 districts in the Seoul city. The overall mean concentrations of the heavy metals (Cd 0.21 mg/kg, Cu 5.97 mg/kg, As 2.40 mg/kg, Pb 7.55 mg/kg, Zn 34.08 mg/kg, Ni 4.22 mg/kg, Hg 0.02 mg/kg and Cr6+ not detected.) in the soils of the palygrounds were lower than the worrisome level in criteria for area 1 in Korea soil environment conservation act. In addition, when the soil pollution grade (SPC) was evaluated as an average value, it was found to be less than 100, the first grade, at all points in the seven autonomous districts, indicating thatthe soil was in good soil condition. However, when evaluated as the maximum value, some of the five districts showed values of 100 or more. Therefore, it was found that continuous management and interest of the local government, which is the management body of children's playgrounds, is necessary for a safe soil environment.

Soil erosion is influenced from a variety of factors such as rainfall distribution, soil type, land use, etc. This paper is aimed at analyzing the soil erosion hazard zone in cropland. RUSLE was used for an analysis of soil erosion amount, and for the spatial data of basin, soil erosion amount was calculated by extracting the respect topography space related factors of RUSLE using DEM, Landuse, Soil map as base map. This paper is targeting at the watershed of Gyeongan stream in Gyeonggi-do The result of an analysis of soil erosion amount showed that soil erosion occurred in the order of crop field(1210) planting area, orchard(1220), non-adjusted paddy fields(1120), and adjusted paddy fields(1110), and also the average soil erosion in these planting areas has the most amount in crop field planting area. As a result of analysis on soil erosion hazard zone of farm land by classifying it into 5 classes using the result of that result of analysis on the amount of soil erosion, in case of Class 5 in which the hazard of soil erosion is the highest, approximately 72.5ha that corresponds to 2.4% of the total farm land was decided as erosion hazard zone. For this erosion hazard zone, it was analyzed that dry field crop planting area was 72.4ha and orchard was 0.1ha, and Class 5 hazard zone did not appear in other farming areas. Also, it showed that Class II(1~50ton/ha/yr) area had the most ratio of the entire farm land, i.e., 70.2%, regardless of land use state. According to the result of analysis on soil erosion hazard zone of farm land by classifying it into 5 classes, the Class V has the highest soil erosion hazard, approximately 72.5ha that corresponds to 2.4% of the total farm land was estimated as an erosion hazard zone. This erosion hazard shows 72.4ha in dry field crop planting area, 0.1ha in an orchard, but the highest hazard zone, the Class V was not shown in other farming areas. Also, it showed that Class II area had the most ratio of the entire farm land, i.e., 70.2%, regardless of land use state.

The hazard maps for predicting collapse on natural slopes consist of a combination of topographic, hydrological, and geological factors. Topographic factors are extracted from DEM, including aspect, slope, curvature, and topographic index. Hydrological factors, such as soil drainage, stream-power index, and wetness index are most important factors for slope instability. However, most of the urban areas are located on the plains and it is difficult to apply the hazard map using the topography and hydrological factors. In order to evaluate the risk of subsidence of flat and low slope areas, soil depth and groundwater level data were collected and used as a factor for interpretation. In addition, the reliability of the hazard map was compared with the disaster history of the study area (Gangnam-gu and Yeouido district). In the disaster map of the disaster prevention agency, the urban area was mostly classified as the stable area and did not reflect the collapse history. Soil depth, drainage conditions and groundwater level obtained from boreholes were added as input data of hazard map, and disaster vulnerability increased at the location where the actual subsidence points. In the study area where damage occurred, the moderate and low grades of the vulnerability of previous hazard map were 12% and 88%, respectively. While, the improved map showed 2% high grade, moderate grade 29%, low grade 66% and very low grade 2%. These results were similar to actual damage.

The total acreage of 4,894ha of upland soils in Yeongyang area, the main crop cultivated were red-pepper. They were distributed mainly on local valleys and alluvial fans(54.9%), about 61.2% had 7~15% slopes, and about 73.2% had fine loamy family in soil texture. the soils were classified into Ochrepts(73.7%). Udalfs(16.9%), Fluvents(6.2%) and Psamments(3.2%) etc. The upland soils with 100~250m in altitude and "moderately well drained" had higher contents in inorganic nutrients. The red-pepper Produced in the high altitude(>400m) were lower in quality and yields, while the content of sugar and yields of pepper produced in fine loamy textured soils were higher than other soil textures. The yields of red-pepper produced in the "moderately well drained" soils which had better water supply capacity were higher than "well drained" soils.
