This experiment was conducted to investigate the direction or orientation of clay particle movement in argillic horizons (Bt) for clarifying the soil classification of soils. Soil samples were collected from 22 soil series containing Bt horizons. Physical and chemical characteristics and mineral and chemical compositions of clay in the soils were analyzed. Micoromorphological characteristics of the Bt horizons were also investigated with thin sections of the natural undisturbed and oriented soil samples. Average clay content in the Bt horizons was 28% and 1.33 times higher comparing to that in the surface layer. Soil pH was higher, but cation exchange capacity (CEC) and organic matter content were lower in Bt horizon than those in the surface layer. There was an evidence of clay accumulation in Bt horizons of all soil series examined except Bangog series. Although there was an increase of clay content in the horizons in Bangog series, the clay was not originated from illuviation process. The translocation of clay was in the order of an 2:1 expandable clay minerals > 2:1 non-expandable clay minerals > 1:1 clay minerals. The illuvial substances in argillic horizon were composed with clay, amorphous iron and opaque mineral. The micoromorphological features of Bt horizon were void coating, channel infilling and grain coating. There was an apparent boundary between clay coating and the groundmass in residuum and colluvium, but Bt horizon of alluvium was composed of a skew plane amputated by the physical operation.

This study presents the effects of temporally varied groundwater table on hydrological components such as surface runoff, evapotranspiration, and soil water content. To this end, the SWAT-MODFLOW model in which the groundwater module of SWAT is replaced with MODFLOW model has been used with a modification to enhance the coupling between the water content in soil profile and the groundwater in shallow aquifer. The variable soil layer construction technique (VSLT) is developed in the present work to represent the direct interaction of soil water and groundwater more realistically, and then the VSLT is incorporated into SWAT-MODFLOW model. In VSLT, when the simulated groundwater table rises within the soil zone, the soil layers below the water table is regarded as a portion of the shallow aquifer, so that those layers are excluded from the initially defined soil zone and are governed by the MODFLOW. From the simulation tests for the Musim river basin, the improved SWAT-MODFLOW model with VSLT is found to correctly evaluate the spatial distributions of overland flow, soil moisture, evapotranspiration according to the groundwater table variation.

국가적인 수자원 다변화 정책의 일환으로 충적층을 활용한 강변여과, 지하수댐, 직접 함양 등의 다양한 충적층 지하수 인공함양 활용 가능성이 점차적으로 증대되고 있지만, 국내에서는 이를 구체적으로 활용하기 위하여 필요한 충적층 지하수의 개발 및 관리를 위한 충적층 수문지질도를 찾아보기 힘든 실정이다. 따라서, 본 발표에서는 부여 군수리 지역을 시범 대상 지역으로 선정하여 수자원 개발을 위한 충적층 활용 가능성을 평가하기 위해 기본적으로 필요한 지형적, 지질학적, 수리적 및 환경적 요소들을 포함하는 시범 충적층 수문지질도를 작성하였다. 본 충적층 수문지질도에는 지하수위 및 수질 변화, 지표 토양조건 및 지하 대수층 분포 등를 추정할 수 있는 다양한 자료들을 포함하고 있으며, 대부분의 이들 자료는 직접 현장 조사를 통해 획득되었다. 이러한 시범 충적층 수문지질도의 작성은 향후 충적층 지하수의 개발 및 관리시에 기본 자료로 활용될 것이다. 그러나, 앞으로 보다 정밀하고 효용성 있는 충적층 수문지질도 작성을 위해서는 이번 시범 작성을 참조하여 보다 많은 개선과 표준화가 요구된다.

This study aims to investigate the formation and sedimentary environment including formative period, grain composition and climate change from loess-paleosol sequence deposited on a gravel bed of river terrace in the Jincheon Basin, Chungbuk Province. The Jincheon section consists downward of a surface layer, loess-paleosol sequence, transitional layer I, transitional layer II and gravel bed. It can be suggested from the OSL age dating that the sequence was deposited during MIS 6 to 4. The sequence can be divided into four horizons based on the variation in the magnetic susceptibility values. Grain size analysis reveals that the sequence indicates similar properties of grain size to loess deposits in Korea and especially, the Y values in the sequence are lower than those in the loess and paleosol horizons in the Chinese Loess Plateau and similar to those in the Red Clay in the Chinese Loess Plateau and Xiashu loess in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. These Y values in the sequence can be attributed to the remote source and/or experience of intensive weathering process after deposition in the Korean Peninsula.

한정된 수자원을 관리하기 위한 물관리시스템을 구축운영하는데 수문학적 물손실의 관점에서 증발산은 매우 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 증발산이 실제 유역에서 변화하는 것을 일별로 추정하기 위해서 유역일증발산 모형을 개발하여 실제증발산을 추정하였다. 실제증발산은 잠재증발산을 먼저 산정하고 이를 이용하여 강우차단에 의한 증발, 토양증발, 지표하 증산으로 나누어 추정하였다. 잠재증발산 추정방법은 토양-식생-대기의 관계를 정교히 모식할 수 있는 Penman-Monteith 방법을 채택하였고, 강우차단에 의한 증발은 Bultot와 Dupriez가 제안한 모형을, 토양증발은 Ritchie가 제시한 모형을 채택하였다. 증산은 토양층을 상부·하부층으로 나누어 상부층증산과 하부층 증산으로 분리 추정하였으며, 증발산과 토양수분의 관계는 Thornthwait-Mather의 관계를 이용하여 추정하였다. 이 모형의 타당성을 임업연구원에서 운영하고 있는 2개의 시험유역을 대상으로 검토하였다. 그결과 실제일증발산을 년단위로 계산한 실제증발산값은 물수지 개념에 의한 실제증발산결과와 비교할 때 약 8~30% 오차를 수반하고 있었다. 이러한 결과는 모형의 실제유역의 적용에 있어서 입력되는 여러 매개변수가 가정에 의해 결정된 것이기 때문일 것이라고 판단된다.

Air Sparging (IAS, AS) is a ground-water remediation technique, in which organic contaminants are volatilized into air as they rise from saturated to vadose soil zone. This study was conducted to investigate the variation characteristics of TPH, VOCs and $CO_2$ for air sparging of diesel contaminated saturated soil. Initial TPH concentration was 10,000 mg/kg for saturated soil phase and 1,001 mg/L for soil aquifer phase. After 36 days of air sparging, the equilibrium temperature of 2-Dimension experiment system was $24.9{\pm}1.5^{\circ}C$. The saturated soil TPH concentration (in the C10 port close to air diffuser) was reduced to 66.0% of the initial value. The mass amount of $CO_2$ was 3,800 mg and 3,200 mg in air space (C70 port) and in unsaturated soil zone (C50 port), respectively. The VOCs production kinetic parameter was 0.164/day in the air space (C70 port) and 0.182/day in the unsaturated soils (C50 port).

대수층 폭기법(aquifer air sparging)은 대수층에 가압공기를 주입하여 휘발성 유기오염물질을 제거하는 지반환경복원 기술의 하나이다. 본 연구는 전통적인 지하 대수층 폭기기술 시행에 있어서 특정층에 미리 수용액상 계면활성제를 수평방향으로 도입함으로써 오염물질이 실제로 존재하는 층에 선택적으로 폭기 되도록 하여 최소한의 공기량으로 제거 효율을 극대화 하는 기술을 개발하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구에서는 균일질 모래로 충진된 2차원 상자 모델을 사용하였으며, 표면장력 조절을 위하여 저농도(100mg/L) 음이온계 계면활성제(sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate) 수용액이 사용되었다. 실험은 계면활성제가 처방되지 않은 경우, 공기도입부 근처에 계면활성제 용액이 도입된 경우, 공기도입부와 토양표면의 중간부분에 계면활성제 용액이 도입된 경우의 세 가지 방법으로 실시되었다. 실험 결과, 계면활성제가 도입된 경우는 투입되지 않은 경우에 비하여 최고 5배에 해당하는 폭기영향권의 확대가 관찰되었으며 폭기영향권이 계면활성제가 도입된 수평층을 중심으로 형성되어 이 부분에 집중되어 존재하는 오염물질의 제거에 매우 유리할 수 있다는 점이다. 대수층 도입공기의 수평확산을 유도하는 기술로 본 연구는 기존의 대수층 폭기 복원기술의 효율을 획기적으로 개선할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Soil layer in vegetation filter strip is one of the very important factor for reduction of non-point pollutants by physical, chemical and biological reactions of it through infiltration process. This study was carried out to prepare more effective vegetation filter strip through modification of soil layer for river water quality improvement. Therefore, the main aims of this study are to compare and evaluate normal (straighten type) and modified (step type) vegetation filter strip, which make artificially change the soil layer to improve infiltration ability, through bench scale experiments. In the results of this study, vegetation filter strip of step type is much more highly reduction effectiveness of pollutants in surface flow compared with normal vegetation filter strip. In case of below effluent, however, it appeared that the vegetation filter strip modified soil layer showed lower reduction effectiveness of pollutants than the general vegetation filter strip. This result was judged because effluent through the vegetation filter strip of step type passed bigger size of aggregate or sand than the vegetation filter strip of straighten type. If we compare it as a definition of pollutant load to estimate total amount of reduced pollutants by vegetation filter strip, reduced pollutants load by step type showed higher than those by straighten type because below effluent amount relied on total effluent amount was higher at step type (4%) than at straighten type (2%). In conclusion, the vegetation filter strip of step type to improve infiltration effect is much more reduction effectiveness of pollutants than vegetation filter strip of straighten type.

Research was focused on the improvement of poor drainage problems on golf course fairway which had not been performed soil test or properly amended during the course construction. The analysis of the drainage problem basically was caused by a deterioration of soil physical properties by the top layer compaction. The soil hardness reached about 3,000 Kpa around 5~6 cm of soil profile. The slow infiltration speed to subsoil by the compaction was caused directly a poor drainage capacity. However, the properly amended sand soil showed an apparent value of 1,500 Kpa through the subsoil. The water content test showed a similar result that higher rate of 20~30% and ideal rate of 8~12% at poor drainage area and successfully amended area, respectively. However, an imported topsoil media which had higher content of silt and clay from a trans-planted sod had made a heterogeneous soil profile and that caused a poor drain capacity by a low infiltration rate. Those drainage problems triggered to buildup a reduced soil layer by poor soil gas exchange. The soil environment of deoxidation enhanced anaerobic microbial population and induced methane gas build-up to 55 ppm, and that resulted an adverse effect on turf growth by root growth retardation, consequently.
