강우침식인자는 강우사상(rainfall event)으로 인한 토양침식량을 산정하는 지표(index)로서 일정기간 토양침식의 정도를 산정할 수 있는 범용토양유식공식(Universal Soil Loss Equation)을 구성하고 있는 인자 중 가장 값의 변동성이 크고 동일한 조건에서 토양유실량 산정에 큰 영향을 미치는 인자다. 강우침식인자의 산정은 유량탐사 센서나 강우게이지 자료(pluviograph)로부터 12.7mm이상, 최소 15분간 6.35mm이상의 호우사상을 추출하여 해당하는 호우사상에 대한 강우에너지식에 30분 최대강우강도를 곱한 값의 연평균값을 계산한 것이다(Wischmeier and Smith, 1978). 본 연구에서는 범용토양유실공식(USLE)의 강우침식인 자(R)를 산정하고 지리정보시스템(GIS)을 활용하여 공간적 분포를 나타낼 수 있는 만경강 유역 상류부에 위치한 봉동 수위관측소 유역의 토양침식도를 연도별로 도시하였으며, 2001~2010년까지의 10개년 강우량을 바탕으로 토양침삭량을 산정하였다. 그 결과는 강우량이 많을수록 침식인자가 크게 산정되는 일반적인 결과를 기대 할 수 있지만, 2001~2010년까지 10개년 강우침식인자를 분석한 결과 강우량이 많다하여 침식인자의 변화 값이 크게 반응하는 값보다 강우강도에 의해 침식인자가 크게 반응하는 결과를 보였다. 따라서 강우침식인자는 강우량보다는 강우강도에 좌우됨을 알 수 있었다.

This study was conducted to evaluate soil erosion risk with a standard unit watershed in the upper Upper Nakdong River Basin according to soil characteristics and landuse using the spatial soil erosion map. The study area is $3,605.6km^2$, which consists of 2 subbasins, 35 standard unit watersheds (Andong basin 18, Imha basin 17). As a evaluation of soil erosion potential using the spatial soil erosion map, total annual soil loss and soil loss per area estimated $2,013{\times}10^3Mg\;yr^{-1}$ (Andong basin 979, Imha basin 1,034) and $6.1Mg\;ha^{-1}yr^{-1}$ (Andong basin 6.0, Imha basin 5.2), respectively. 54.2% of soil loss was originated from Arable land (Andong basin 49.0%, Imha basin 59.0%), and the area of regions, graded as higher "Moderate" for annual soil loss, was $201.7km^2$ (Andong basin 84.9, Imha basin 116.8). Average soil loss per area of unit watersheds by classification according to soil dominant parent material types ranked "Sedimentary rock group" > "Mixed group" > "Metamorphic rock group" > "Igneous rock group". In conclusion, the results of this study inform that the classification of soil parent material type would be effective for soil erosion analysis and interpretation in the Upper Nakdong River Basin.

범용토양유실공식(RUSLE)은 연간 토양유실량을 산정하기 위해 제시된 경험식이며, 강우침식인자(R factor)는 유실량을 결정하는 요소 중 강우강도의 특성을 고려하는 주요인자이다. 토지피복, 식생 등에 대한 타 인자의 경우 한정된 실험에 의해 도출된 경험치를 대상지역에 맞게 적용하는데 반해 강우침식인자는 강우강도 기반 강우에너지 산정법을 적용하여 계산과정이 비교적 복잡하고 다양하다. 국내에서도 강우침식인자 산정법이 개발된 바 있으나 현제까지 간편법을 비롯한 다양한 공식들이 적용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강우침식인자를 산정하는 과정에서 다른 강우 운동에너지식을 적용하거나 연평균 강수량 등을 대체지수로 활용한 간편법 적용시 결과의 결과의 다양성에 대해 분석하고자 하였다. 합리적인 30분 강우강도 산정을 위해 79개 기상청 종관기상관측 지점에 대한 분단위 강우자료(1997~2014)를 수집하고 기존의 국내외 강우운동에너지 식과 대체지수를 적용하여 산정된 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 연구결과 간편법을 사용한 결과가 대부분 지점에 대해 강우에너지식을 사용한 강우침식인자보다 과대산정(지점평균 약 74%)하였으며 다른 강우에너지식 적용에 따른 평균 변동계수가 약 0.12로 나타나 지점간 차이를 보였으나 적용방법에 따른 침식인자의 분포가 다소 다르게 나타남을 확인하였다. 관측자료가 부족한 토양유실량 예측에 있어 강우 침식인자 산정을 위한 최적 방법론 도출이 어려운 만큼 다중모델 결과를 조합하는 방법론 개발이 필요하다고 판단된다.

토양유실에 영향을 미치는 기후 인자로는 강우, 기온, 바람, 습도 및 태양열 복사 등이 있다. 이들 중 강우는 토양침식에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 인자로 토립장의 이탈로 인한 토양침식을 유발한다. 토양침식을 예측하는데 있어 강우의 영향을 나타내는 지표의 설정은 매우 중요하다. 이러한 강우침식인자는 각 강우사상에 대한 강우에너지와 30분 최대 강우강도의 곱의 합으로 정의된다. 강우침식도를 정확하게 계산하기 위해서는 다년간 측정된 분단위 강우자료가 필요하며, 강우자료 획득의 제한과 강우의 분류 및 계산과정 등이 복잡하여 실무적으로 산정하기 어려운 점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 1분 상세강우자료를 이용하여 개정범용토양유실공식(RUSLE)의 강우침식도 R의 추정을 위해 2001년부터 2015년까지 15년간 전국 61개 기상청 관측소의 강우 자료를 수집하여 지점별로 새롭게 계산한 연 강우침식도 및 경험식을 산정하였으며 남한전체($99,720km^2$)를 대상으로 연 강우침식량의 공간분포맵을 작성하였다. 지점별 산정된 경험식은 연평균 강우량과 1분 강우자료로부터 산정된 강우침식도와의 상관관계로 회귀식을 도출하였다. 1분 강우자료로 계산된 강우침식도와 연평균 강우량의 상관관계로부터 도출된 경험식과의 결정계수($R^2$, determination coefficient)는 0.70 ~ 0.98로 높은 상관관계를 나타냈으며 또한, 기존의 국내에서 적용된 경험식과 비교하여 평균 $R^2$가 0.59에서 0.80로 실측값과의 정확성이 높게 개선됨을 알 수 있다.

The land use map of the Nakdong River watershed was classified by each land use contents and analyzed to rank the risk of soil loss and erosion. Also, the soil loss and erosion was evaluated in the Nakdong River watershed using Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the subbasin with high risk of soil loss was evaluated with the analysis results of land use contents. Finally, the analyzed results were also compared with the landslide risk map, hence the practical application methods using developed and analyzed results were considered in this study. As a result of land use analysis and RUSLE calculation, it was represented that the Naesung Stream watershed had the high risk for soil loss among the subbasins of the Nakdong River watershed. It was also presented that the high risk area identified by computation of RUSLE was corresponding to the landslide risk area. However, the high risk of soil erosion by land use near the river or wetland was confirmed only through the calculation results of RUSLE.

The periodic application effects of two different herbicides on soil physical properties were observed in a slightly hilly orchard of pear tree located on the southestern flank of the Palbong Mountain in Gongju Chungnam : (1) bare surface vegetation; (2) glyphosate-treated plot; (3) paraquat-treated plot. The slope of experimental plots ranged from 5.5%to 10.2%at an altitude of 125 mand 896 $m^2$ ($28m{\times}32m$) in area. The total respective rainfall events were 47, 52, 52 times during experimental period from 2006 to 2008, while approximately 65 percent of daily rainfall intensity from2006 to 2008 was less than 20 mm a day. The organic matter contents on the surface 15 cm soil ranging from1.23%to 1.84%in 2006 were changed into from1.35 %to 2.28%in 2008 in the order of control > glyphosate > paraquat > bare plot in 2008, indicating that the herbicide treatment influenced the accumulation organic matter in soil. The changes in soil particle contents showed that the loss of soil particles in top 5 cm soil depth was greater in a bare soil than in other treatments such as control, glyphosate, and paraquat-treated plot. The net changes in the bulk densities showed that there were little variations between May of 2006 and Nov. of 2008 even though there were some losses of the soil particles. The soil strength of the glyphosate-treated bare plots was much greater than those of other plots such as control, glyphosate, and paraquat plots. However the soil strengths in control plots were lower than those in the plots of glyphosate and paraquat treated ones.

Three different experiments were carried out to investigate the runoff and erosion losses of endosulfan from sloped-field by rainfall. The mobility of endosulfan and which phase it was transported by were examined in adsorption study, the influence of rainfall pattern and slope degree on the pesticide loss were evaluated in simulated rainfall study, and the pesticide losses from soybean-grown field comparing with bare soil were measured in field lysimeter study. Adsorption parameter (K) of endosulfan ranged from 77 to 131 by adsorption method and K values by the desorption method were higher than those by the adsorption method. By the SSLRC's classification for pesticide mobility endosulfan was classified as non-mobile class ($K_{oc}>4,000$). Runoff and erosion loss of endosulfan by three rainfall scenarios ranged from 3.4 to 5.6%and from 4.4 to 15.6%of the amount treated. Endosulfan residues were mainly remained at the top 5 cm of soil depth after the simulated rainfall study. Pesticide loss in case of 30%-slope degree ranged from 0.6 to 0.9 times higher than those in case of 10%-slope degree. The difference of pesticide runoff loss was related with its concentration in runoff water and the difference of pesticide erosion loss would related closely with the quantity of soil eroded. Endosulfan losses from a series of lysimeter plots in sloped land by rainfall ranged from 5 to 35% of the amount treated. The erosion rate of endosulfan from soybean-plots was 66% of that from bare soil plots. The effect of slope conditions was not great for runoff loss, but was great for erosion loss as increasing to maximum $4{\sim}12$ times with slope degree and slope length. The peak runoff concentration of endosulfan in soybean-plots and bare soil plots ranged from 8 to 10 and from 7 to $9{\mu}gL^{-1}$ on nine plots with different slope degree and slope length. Therefore the difference of the peak runoff concentrations between bare soil plots and soybean-plots were not great.

Two different experiments, adsorption/desorption and runoff by rainfall simulation of four pesticides, such as alachlor, ethalfluralin, ethoprophos and pendimethalin were undertaken their runoff and erosion losses from sloped land and to assess the influence of their properties and environmental factors on them. The mobility of four pesticides and which phase they were transported by were examined in adsorption study, and the influence of rainfall pattern and sloping degree on the pesticide losses were evaluated in simulated rainfall study. Freundlich adsorption parameters (K) by the adsorption and desorption methods were 1.2 and 2.2 for ethoprophos, 1.5 and 2.6 for alachlor, respectively. And adsorption distribution coefficients (Kd) by the adsorption and desorption methods were 56 and 94 for ethalfluralin, and 104 and 189 for pendimethalin, respectively. K or Kd values of pesticides by the desorption method which were desorbed from the soil after thoroughly mixing, were higher than these ones by the adsorption method which pesticides dissolved in water were adsorbed to the soil. Another parameter (1/n), representing the linearity of adsorption, in Freundlich equation for the pesticides tested ranged from 0.96 to 1.02 by the desorption method and from 0.87 to 1.02 by the adsorption method. Therefore, the desorption method was more independent from pesticide concentration in soil solution than the adsorption method. By Soil Survey and Land Research Center (SSLRC)'s classification for pesticide mobility, alachlor and ethoprophos were classified into moderately mobile $(75{\leq}Koc<500)$, and ethalfluralin and pendimethalin were included to non-mobile class (Koc > 4000). Runoff and erosion loss of pesticides by three rainfall scenarios were from 1.0 to 6.4% and from 0.3 to 1.2% for alachlor, from 1.0 to 2.5% and from 1.7 to 10.1% for ethalfluralin, from 1.3 to 2.9% and from 3.9 to 10.8% for pendimethalin, and from 0.6 to 2.7% and from 0.1 % 0.3% for ethoprophos, respectively. Distribution of pesticides in soil profile were investigated after the simulated rainfall study. Alachlor and ethoprophos were leached to from 10 to 15 cm of soil layer, but ethalfluralin and pendimethalin were mostly remained at the top 5 cm of soil profile. The losses of the pesticides at 30% of sloping degree were from 0.2 to 1.9 times higher than those at 10%. The difference of their runoff loss was related with their concentration in runoff water while the difference of their erosion loss must be closely related with the quantity of soil eroded.

This study was performed to estimate the soil loss on a national scale and grade regions with the potential risk of soil erosion. Universal soil loss equation (USLE) for rainfall and runoff erosivity factors (R), cover management factors (C) and support practice factors (P) and revised USLE for soil erodibility factors (K) and topographic factors (LS) were used. To estimate the soil loss, the whole nation was divided into 21,337 groups according to city county, soil phase and land use type. The R factors were high in the southern coast of Gyeongnam and Jeonnam and part of the western coast of Gyeonggi and low in the inland and eastern coast of Gyeongbuk. The K factors were higher in the regions located on the lower streams of rivers and the plain lands of the western coast of Chungnam and Jeonbuk. The average slope of upland areas in Pyeongchang-gun was the steepest of 30.1%. The foot-slope areas from the Taebaek Mountains to the Sobaek Mountains had steep uplands. Total soil loss of Korea was estimated as $50{\times}10^6Mg$ in 2004. The potential risk of soil erosion in upland was the severest in Gyeongnam and the amount of soil erosion was the greatest in Jeonnam. The regions in which annual soil loss was estimated over $50Mg\;ha^{-1}$ were graded as "the very severe" and their acreage was $168{\times}10^3ha$ in 2004. The soil erosion maps of city/county of Korea were made based on digital soil maps with 1:25,000 scale.

Objective of this study was to evaluate the adaptation and the soil conservation effect of improved wild vine in sloped upland of highland about 600m from sea level in Korea. A mainly producing district of the improved wild vine in Korea was distributed 230m to 540m from sea level, and its rainfall ranged 1,200 to 1,700 mm. The lowest temperature was from -19.6 to $-25.4^{\circ}C$. Their soil texture was from sandy loam to clay loam, where drainage class was well drained and the contents of soil organic matter and total nitrogen in the improved wild vine's cultivation area were higher than those of Chinese cabbage's cultivation area in the highland. According to improved wild vine's cultivation methods, the amounts of soil erosion were 25.5,4.1, and $1.8MT\;ha^{-1}$ in clean culture, part sod + mulching, and nature sod, respectively. Those were below 30 to $80MT\;ha^{-1}$ of sloped upland at highland in Korea. The result suggests that it is possible to cultivate the improved wild vine over wintering at 600m of highland above the sea level. We can substitute the improved wild vine for Chinese cabbage in the highland for soil conservation.
