Fertilizer granulation test was carried out by a small pan granulator. A premixture composed of SOP 60%, urea 22% and RP powder 18% was rolled in the pan granulator while 10% phosphoric acid solution(binder) was sprayed on the rolling powder bed. Granules were developed very fast along with a little amount of binder. Hardness, brittle ratio in water and hygroscopicity of granules were improved enough to evaluate physical properties of the fertilizer. Growth responses of tobacco plant to the fertilizer were investigated at seedling and flowering stage by pot experiment under plastic film roof. Seedlings showed poor growth at nursery pot cell. In virgin soil with deficient available phosphate tobacco plant showed poor growth until budding and flowering stage but good growth in tillage soil with high cumulative phosphate.

Using direct headspace sampling (DHS) method, volatile terpenoid content was measured according to carrot cultured areas and various portions of carrot. In comparison of volatile terpenoid content in xylem and phloem of carrot, every volatile terpenoid was distributed highly in the xylem rather than the phloem of carrot. The carrot was divided into three different sections; upper (crown), middle (midsection), and lower part (tip), and the volatile terpenoids were measured. The content of ${\alpha}-pinene,\;{\beta}-pinene,\;{\beta}-myrcene,\;and\;{\gamma}-terpinene$ tended to be distributed highly in the upper part rather than the lower part, whereas the content of terpinolene and total terpenoids tended to be high in the lower part. In comparison of volatile terpenoid content according to the carrot cultured areas, volatile terpenoid content of carrot cultured in Cheju island was higher than Yangsan and Haenam areas. In case of total terpenoids, the carrot clutivars cultured in Cheju island contained $1.6{\sim}2.3\;times$ higher than those of Yangsan, and $1.5{\sim}2.4\;times$ higher than Haenam. In order to investigate the above results, we sampled out soils from the carrot fields and measured physical and chemical characteristics of the soils. The pH did not show much difference in the three areas. However the organic carbon, total nitrogen, cation exchange capacity, and total exchangeable cation in soil from Cheju were $2.4{\sim}3.0\;times$ higher than Yangsan and $3.9{\sim}7.1\;times$ higher than Haenam. The physical characteristics of the soils was investigated. The soil from Cheju island was found to be loam; Yangsan, sandy loam, and Haenam, clay loam.

Soil moisture data have been collected at 11 agrometeorological stations operated by The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). This study aimed to verify the accuracy of soil moisture data of KMA and develop a correction formula to be applied to improve their quality. The soil of the observation field was sampled to analyze its physical properties that affect soil water content. Soil texture was classified to be sandy loam and loamy sand at most sites. The bulk density of the soil samples was about 1.5 g/cm³ on average. The content of silt and clay was also closely related to bulk density and water holding capacity. The EnviroSCAN model, which was used as a reference sensor, was calibrated using the self-manufactured "reference soil moisture observation system". Comparison between the calibrated reference sensor and the field sensor of KMA was conducted at least three times at each of the 11 sites. Overall, the trend of fluctuations over time in the measured values of the two sensors appeared similar. Still, there were sites where the latter had relatively lower soil moisture values than the former. A linear correction formula was derived for each site and depth using the range and average of the observed data for the given period. This correction formula resulted in an improvement in agreement between sensor values at the Suwon site. In addition, the detailed approach was developed to estimate the correction value for the period in which a correction formula was not calculated. In summary, the correction of soil moisture data at a regular time interval, e.g., twice a year, would be recommended for all observation sites to improve the quality of soil moisture observation data.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of no-tillage on sequential cropping supported from recycling of first crop ridge on the growth of pepper plant and physical properties of soil under green house condition. 1. Degree of crack on soil by tillage and no-tillage Soil cracks found in ridge and not found in row. At five months of tillage, crack number and crack length in length ridge were 3 and 37~51 cm in tillage. Maximum width and maximum depth in length ridge were 30 mm and 15.3cm in tillage. Crack number and crack length in width ridge were 7.5 and 7~28 cm in tillage. Maximum width and maximum depth in width ridge were 29 mm and 15.3 cm in tillage. At a year of no-tillage, crack number and crack length in length ridge were 1.0 and 140~200 cm in tillage. Maximum width and maximum depth in length ridge were 18 mm and 30 cm in a year of no-tillage. Crack number and crack length in width ridge were 11 and 6~22 cm in a year of no-tillage. Maximum width and maximum depth in width ridge were 22 mm and 18.5 cm in a year of no-tillage. Soil crack was not found at 2 years of no-tillage in sandy Jungdong series (jd) soil. Soil crack was found at 7 years of no-tillage in clayish Jisan series (ji) soil. 2. Penetration resistance on soil Penetration resistance was increased significantly at no-tillage in Jungdong series (jd). Depth of cultivation layer was extended at no-tillage soil compared with tillage soil. Penetration resistance of plow pan was decreased at 1 year of no-tillage compared with than tillage soil. Penetration resistance was linearly increased with increasing soil depth at tillage in Jisan series (ji). Penetration resistance on top soil was remarkably increased and then maintained continuously at no-tillage soil. 3. Drainage and moisture content of soil Moisture content of ridge in top soil was not significant difference at both tillage and no-tillage. Moisture content of ridge in 20 cm soil was 14% at no-tillage soil and 25% at tillage soil. 4. Change of capacity to retain water in soil Capacity to retain water in top soil was not significant difference at 1 bar both tillage and no-tillage. Capacity to retain water in soil was slightly higher tendency in 1 year and 2 years of no-tillage soil than tillage soil. Capacity to retain water in soil was increased at 15 bar both tillage and no-tillage. Capacity to retain water in subsoil was slightly higher tendency at 1 bar and 3 bar in 2 years of no-tillage than tillage soil and a year of no-tillage soil.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of no-tillage on sequential cropping supported from recycling of first crop ridge on the productivity of crop and physical properties of soil under green house condition. This study is a part of "No-tillage agriculture of Korea-type on recycled ridge". From results for distribution of soil particle size with time process after tillage, soil particles were composed with granular structure in both tillage and no-tillage. No-tillage soil in distribution of above 2 mm soil particle increased at top soil and subsoil compared with tillage soil. Tillage and one year of no-tillage soil were not a significant difference at above 0.25 mm~below 0.5 mm, above 0.5 mm~below 1.0 mm, and above 1.0 mm of water-stable aggregate. Two years of no-tillage soil was significantly increased by 8.2%, 4.5%, and 1.7% at above 0.25 mm~below 0.5 mm, above 0.5 mm~below 1.0 mm, and above 1.0 mm of water-stable aggregate, respectively, compared with one year of no-tillage. Bulk density of top soil was $1.10MG\;m^3$ at tillage and $1.30MG\;m^3$ at one year of no-tillage. Bulk density of top soil was $1.14MG\;m^3$ at two years and $1.03MG\;m^3$ at three years of no-tillage, respectively. Bulk density of subsoil was a similar tendency. Solid phase ratio in top soil and subsoil was increased at one year of no-tillage compared with tillage soil, while soil phase ratio decreased at two and three years of no-tillage. Pore space ratio in tillage top soil (58.5%) was decreased by 8.5% at compared with no-tillage soil (51.0%). Pore space ratio was 56.9% and 61.2% at two and three years of no-tillage soil, respectively. Subsoil was a similar tendency. Gaseous phase ratio was decreased at one year of no-tillage soil, and increased at two and three years of no-tillage soil compared with tillage soil. Liquid phase ratio in top soil was increased at one year of no-tillage (28.3%), and decreased at two years (23.4%) and at three years (18.3 %) of no-tillage soil compared with tillage soil (24.2%). Subsoil was a similar tendency. Liquid phase ratio in subsoil was increased than top soil.

유해물질의 거동에 대한 이해를 돕기 위해서 대도시지역을 대상으로 하여 fugacity를 이용한 level-III 다매체환경거동모형이 개발되었다. 이 모형에 의한 거동의 예측결과에 민감한 영향을 주는 입력과정과 변수들을 찾아내기 위하여 체계적으로 민감도분석을 수행할 수 있도록 하는 기법을 개발하고 사례연구로서 서울지역과 2, 3, 7, 8-TCDD을 대상으로 그 기법을 적용하였다. Sensitivity index에 의한 평가한 결과, 일정한 배출속도조건에서는 대기중의 바람속도, 그리고 대기에서 수체나 토양으로 전이되는 건식 및 습식 침적과정이 다매체거동에서 전체적으로 가장 중요한 과정인 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이들 거동과정 자체에 영향을 미치는 변수들에 대한 민감도 분석의 결과 건식침적의 경우 중력에 의한 입자들의 침강속도가, 습식침적의 경우 평균 강우속도가 대단히 중요한 변수임이 파악되었다. 물질의 물리화학적 특성 가운데에서는 z-값에 직접 영향을 주는 변수들, 즉, 헨리상수와 옥타놀-물 분배계수 등이 결과에 민감한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 사례연구는 본 연구에서 개발된 민감도분석기법이 유해물질의 다매체 거동모형을 개선하고 좀더 중요한 거동과정에 대한 이해를 넓히는데 효율적으로 사용될 수 있다는 것을 보여주고 있다.

In an experiment of organic manure to substitute for chemical fertilizers in rice-cropping, the amount of applied fertilizer tended to increase pH and organic matters, depending on chemical characteristics of soil with organic fertilizers. At first, that tendency about growth characteristics was shown in treatment group, which was applied organic manure and chemical fertilizers, comparing with control group. However, after growing period, leaf area, fresh weight, and dry weight in seventh treatment group applied 12 kg / 10 a of organic manure was higher than in other groups. There was no significant difference of the number of glumous flowers or percent ripened grain in terms of yield component, and control group and treatment group yielded above 500 kg per 10a. Especially, the highest figure was from seventh treatment group, 538 kg / 10 a. Furthermore, quality of rice grain showed not much difference, depending on whether or not applying organic fertilizers. As a result of the experiment, applying organic manure improves the physical property of soil. It is clear that organic fertilizers can be substituted for chemical ones since there is no difference from yield component and quality of brown rice, comparing with chemical fertilizers which have been used conventionally. The proper amount of organic manure is 267 kg per 10a; it makes good quality of yield.

물순환계를 종합적으로 관리하기 위해서는 물순환계의 모니터링과 해석모형의 구축이 필요하다. 실측자료만으로는 복잡 다양한 물순환계 구조 및 인과관계를 규명할 수 없기 때문에 시간적 공간적으로 변화하는 다양한 수문현상을 일관된 하나의 시스템으로 이해하기 위해 물순환 해석모델을 구축하여 검토할 필요가 있다. CAT(Catchment hydrologic cycle Analysis Tool)은 수문학적으로 균일하게 판단되는 범위를 소유역으로 분할하여 지형학적 요인에 의한 유출 특성을 객관적으로 반영할 수 있게 하며, 토양층에 따라 침투, 증발, 지하수 흐름 등의 모의가 가능하도록 하는 Link-Node 모형으로, 증발산은 기준 증발산을 외부에서 직접 입력하거나, Penman-Monteith 방법을 선택할 수 있으며, 침투는 토양의 수리전도도에 따른 연직방향 침투 및 사면방향 복귀류를 고려할 수 있다. 노드의 지하수 유거를 고려하여 기존 노드-링크 방식 모형의 장기 유출 해석시 제한점을 보완하였으며, Muskingum, Muskingum-Cunge, Kinematic wave 방법을 이용하여 하도추적을 모의할 수 있다. 또한 GUI를 통해 사용자가 손쉽게 모형을 적용하고 관리 할 수 있도록 하고, 여러 시나리오를 적용함에 있어서 편리하도록 개발 중인 모형이다. 본 연구에서는 개발중인 CAT 모형을 평가 하기위해 시험 유역으로 운영 중인 설마천 유역에 적용하여 소유역 분할(노드수), 계산 시간 간격(일/시단위) 등에 따른 적용성을 평가하였다. 관측 자료를 통해 구축 가능한 물리적 매개변수를 통해 해당 유역을 단일 노드 및 다중 노드로 간단히 모형화할 수 있었으며, 모의 결과, 관측 유량과 적절히 일치하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 1시간 단위에 대한 모의에서도 유출을 적절히 모의할 수 있었으며, 소규모 유역에 대한 정밀한 물순환 해석이 가능할 것으로 평가되었다.

Comparative biodegradation studies of liquid and solid alkanes and of two different solid alkanes were conducted by an isolated Acinetobacter sp., which degraded crude oil alkanes simultaneously. for the determination of degradation mechanism of hydrophobic crude oil constituents. Also a model oil experimental system composed of a solid alkane. heneicosane, as a substrate and a non-degradable non-aqueous phase liquid. pristane, as an oil matrix was established and studied. It was proposed that the Acinefobacter sp. utilized hydrophobic substrates directly on the surface of them with no difference in the degradation rates between the liquid and solid alkanes. On the basis of the results from the heneicosane/pristane system which imitates crude oil matrix containing solid constituents. the crude oil matrix was considered to reduce the bioavailability of contained substrates by reducing the specific surface area of substrates to contact with microorganisms.
