Optimum soil management of chestnut orchards is important to ensure high quality and yields of chestnut. This study was conducted to evaluate soil and green leaf characteristics by establishment periods of chestnut (Castanea crenata Sieb. et. Zucc.) orchards in Sancheong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do. Total 30 plots with the criteria of similar cultivation practices were chosen and classified into two establishment periods by over 20-year-old orchards (17 plots) and below 19-year-old orchards (13 plots). Soil bulk density was significantly higher (p<0.05) in over 20-year-old ($1.16g\;cm^{-3}$) than in below 19-year-old ($1.03g\;cm^{-3}$) plots. Soils in over 20-year-old plots were severely acidified with pH 4.56 compared to pH 4.73 in below 19-year-old plots. However, soil organic matter, total nitrogen, available phosphorus, and potassium were not significantly different (p>0.05) between both establishment periods. Leaf area, leaf mass, and nutrient (N, P, K, Ca, Mg) concentration of green leaves were also not significantly different (p>0.05) between both establishment periods. The results indicate that soil bulk density in chestnut orchards is dependent on the establishment periods, while soil chemical property and leaf nutrient concentration may be little influenced by the establishment periods.

Forest soils were analyzed on their biological and physicochemical properties for the ecological restoration of burnt forest soil using organic wastes and proper microorganisms. Three kinds of soil samples were collected from undamaged soil(US), naturally restoring soil(NS) and artificially restoring soil(AS). All soil samples were sandy soil and acidic soil, ranged pH 5.34~5.78. Moisture content was higher in the soil of NS region. And the others were similar. Total organic matter and soluble sugar were higher at the surface, generally. Heterotrophic soil microbes were abundant at the surface soil of NS and subsoil of AS. Dehydrogenase, cellulase and phosphatase activities were higher at the NS soil. Especially, Dehydrogenase activity as primary index of soil microbial process showed high correlationship with moisture content(r=0.90, P < 0.05).

This research aimed to analyze the characteristics of topsoil for soil conservation and promote the process of turning subsoil into topsoil. The physicochemical characteristics of topsoil and subsoil of different types of soil were compared, and their quantitative differences were examined. 204 soil samples were collected from a total of 102 areas according to rock types. These samples were tested to measure grain size, water content, and unit weight, along with XRF and XRD analyses. The topsoil and subsoil of the soil samples were also analyzed. The results of this research showed that the topsoil and subsoil had different physical characteristics, and that the chemical alteration index of the topsoil was higher than that of the subsoil. This would imply that the topsoil was high in clay minerals since it was directly affected by weathering more than the subsoil. In particular, vermiculite, one of the final products generated from weathering, was common in the topsoil.

The objectives of soil investigation in risk assessment of contaminated sites are to characterize the level and area of contamination, and provide the important physical and chemical properties of contaminated sites for later exposure assessment. This study suggests two soil investigation strategies to be considered in the soil risk assessment in Korea. First, soil investigation for characterizing soil properties is additionally required to the current investigation method that has focused on chemical analysis. Second, application of statistical concepts to soil investigation plan and soil data analysis are required for confidential decison-making on contamination and determining the exposure soil concentration. This study provides a practical soil investigation strategy to involve the current Korean soil analysis guidance with the minimum sample number required for satisfying statistical limits.

본 연구에서 이동상 모래하천에서 식생의 변화과정을 연구하였다. 연구 대상 하천은 낙동강 상류 하회지구를 대상으로 하였다. 이 지역은 우리나라에서 대표적인 모래하천으로서 지형적인 요인으로 형성된 사행하천의 만곡부에 해당하고 있다. 특히 상류에 댐과 취수보 등 수자원개발시설이 건설되면서 수십 년 동안 물과 유사의 공급이 조절되어 안동시권역에서부터 하류방향으로 향하면서 점차 바뀌어 가고 있는 실정이다. 이 가운데, 이동성을 지니고 있던 사주부에 식생이 유입되고, 식생역이 확장되면서 사주가 고정화되는 경향을 보이고 있다. 이러한 이동상 하도에서 이동사주내 식생역의 발달과정을 파악하기 위하여 사주내 토양의 물리화학적 조사를 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 안동 하회지구내 모래사주에서 식생이 정착 발달 확장 되어가는 과정을 파악할 수 있었다. 하회지구의 식생역의 발달은 시기적으로 홍수기와 비홍수기의 반복적인 출현에 영향을 받고 있었다. 그리고 공간적으로는 홍수기 동안의 유사의 퇴적과 세굴과정과 밀접한 관련이 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 식생역의 확장과정은 이러한 시공간적 상황으로 인해 유발되는 토양의 물리화학적 특성과 높은 상관성이 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Soil aggregation has been considered as an important factor not only for increasing soil productivity and soil quality but also improving nutrient use availability and water use efficiency. However, the relationship between soil aggregation and soil properties hasn't well reported for Korean soils. Objective of this research was to identify the relationship among soil water-stable aggregate (WSA), soil properties and soil dispersion ratio. Soil samples were analyzed for water-stable aggregate, Middleton's dispersion ratio, and soil physical and chemical properties. Water-stable aggregate was significantly correlated to soil textural properties, soil organic matter, and exchangeable cations. Middleton's dispersion ratio was significantly correlated with water-stable aggregate ($r=-0.76^{***}$). Regression equation for water-stable aggregate was estimated by Middleton's dispersion ratio (Y=-0.79X + 96.49; $r^2=0.58^{**}$). In this research, we conclude that water-stable aggregate was significantly correlated with some soil properties and was able to be estimated by rapid and easily measurable Middleton's dispersion ratio.

현장 균열망의 연결성 및 이에 따른 수리지질학적 특성을 규명하기 위하여, 기존의 통상적인 조사 기법을 한 지역에 집적하여 그 결과에 대한 통합해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구에 적용된 조사 방법은 양수시험, 물리검층, 다중심도 수리화학 분석, 전기비저항 토모그래피, 시추 코어 검층 등의 기련 특성 조사와, 추적자 시험, 다중 심도 수직 유향유속 시험 등 구간별 특성 조사 등이다. 이러한 조사 결과 본 조사 지역 내 균열의 전반적인 분포 특성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 각 균열의 수리적 특성에 대한 기본적 특성을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 추적자 시험과 유향유속 시험 결과를 통해 각 관정간의 균열을 통한 연결성에 대한 중요한 정보를 도출할 수 있었다. 이러한 성과는 추후 percolation, connectivity 등 모델 개념의 현장화를 위한 연구의 선행 연구로서 그 의미를 자리매김 할 수 있을 것이다.
