The effect of soil physico-chemical properties of pre and post soil preparation and permanent bed period on growth and yield was analysed by two models of annual variation and percent annual change (PAC). 1. Aggregation, porosity, bulk density except moisture were significantly different in each year from preparation to the 6th year while all soil chemical properties except Mg were significantly different in each year. 2. Soil physical properties showed significant simple correlation with yield and negative with the missing plant rate in each year while the electroconductivity ($EC_5$) of the 4th year showed significant correlation with yield. 3. Yield showed significant positive correlation with the variation of aggregation in permanent bed period, and negative with variation and PAC of aggregation of preplanting soil and variation of moisture in permanent bed period. Missing plant rate was negatively correlated with porosity variation of preplanting soil and positively with PAC of aggregation in preplanting soil and of moisture in permanent bed period. 4. According to multiple regression between yield and soil physical properties, porosity of preplanting soil was in the greatest contribution. Among aggregations, the variation in permanent bed period was in the greatest contribution.

Residue level of myclobutanil[2-p-chlorophenyl-2-(1H-1,2,4-trizol-l-yl-methyl) hexane nitril] and number of soil microorganism were investigated at different environmental conditions such as the sterile and the non-sterile soils, moisture content, pH, temperature, application rate, and soil types under laboratory and field to study the effect of those factors on degradation characteristics of this fungicide and change of microflora in soil. Decomposition rate of myclobutanil was 3.9 times faster in the non-sterile soil than in the sterile soil, 1.6 times in the field than in the laboratory, 1.4 times in the concentration of 10ppm than in that of 20ppm, and 1.2 times in the clay loam soil than in the silty loam soil. Degradation rate of myclobutanil was the fastest at pH 9.0 among the tested pHs and the latest at pH 5.5. Degradation rate of myclobutanil was in order of $27^{\circ}C$ > $37^{\circ}C$ > $17^{\circ}C$. Otherwise, the effect of soil water content on myclobutanil degradation was found not clear. Number of microorganism in the non-sterile soil was remarkedly more than that in the sterile soil. Numbers of microbes were not significantly different between treatment plot and non-treatment plot of myclobutanil at the different conditions of soil moisture content, pH, temperature and soil type. Numbers of fungi and total microbes were more in the treatment than in the non-treatment of myclobutanil at field test but the same trends were not found at laboratory test. Within non-treatment of myclobutanil, numbers of microbes were not significantly different under the various condition of pH, application rate, and soil type in laboratory and upland field. The number of bacteria were more in 60% moisture content of water holding capacity than in 40% and the number of fungi were more in $17^{\circ}C$ of soil temperature than in $37^{\circ}C$. Within the application plot of myclobutanil, numbers of microbes were not significantly different at various pH in laboratory and upland field. The number of bacteria and total microbes were more in 80% moisture content of water holding capacity than in 40% and 60% and actinomycetes were more at $27^{\circ}C$ in the clay loam soil than at $17^{\circ}C$ in the silty loam soil.

A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the dry matter weight of soybean plant, fertilization efficiency, and the changes of p uptake with different p application levels in cultivated and uncultivated soils controlling the soil moisture content to 2 levels. 1. The effect of irrigation was higher in cultivated soil than in uncultivated soil, and was higher in larger amount of p application than in small amount of p. 2. Efficiency of phosphate fertilization for soybean growth was higher in cultivated soil compared with uncultivated soil, and increased by irrigation to optimum soil moisture content for crop growth. 3. Adjustment of soil moisture content to optimum level for soybean growth increased the concentration of phosphate in plant and decreased the content of phosphate in soil. Therefore, it was obvious that soybean plant absorbed the high amount of p in the optimum soil moisture level and in large amount of p application.

This study was conducted to provide a rational forest management method for a natural oak (Quercus variavilis) forest stand in the central part of South Korea based on characteristics of growth and water relation parameters. Average volume per hectare was 175.1 ㎥ in the study site of oak stands. Basal area and volume of each direction appeared to increase as the slope direction moves from north to south, but annual mean increment and periodic annual increment of DBH for 10 years showed the lowest value at the southern aspect. Maximum water potentials measured between 12 and 14 o'clock were analyzed by direction and elevation in the oak stands. Water potential of oak decreased as the slope changed from the north to the south aspect and water potential increased at lower elevations. Soil water content for the oak stands tended to decrease as the aspect shifted from north to south. Water potential and soil moisture content were highly correlated. It appears that oaks have a higher moisture requirement at the southern aspect, because of stand density related to intraspecific competition.

Calcined clay granules (pellet) have been used as a soil conditioner. The space among the pellets can secure drainage of water in soil and, simultaneously, can keep water for plants in the inner pore of that. However, the usage of the pellet has been restrained because fabrication of that requires a high energy and cost for heating over the temperate of $1000^{\circ}C$. Recently, SCS(Self-propagating Combustion and Sintering) method was developed and this method use the combustion energy of the preliminary mixed combustible. The SCS method is suitable to fabrication of small porous aggregate and requires a very low cost. This research applied the SCS method to coal refuses for fabrication of soil conditioner pellets. The coal refuses were pulverized under the size of $100{\mu}m$ and the pulverized powders were pelletized to the size of 4~6mm. The pellets were heated at the temperature of $1200^{\circ}C$ in the SCS furnace that was specially prepared for this research. Characteristics of the pellets were investigated and were compared with that of ordinary calcined clay pellet of kaolin; porosity, pore size distribution, bulk density, pH and etc.. Characteristics of the moisture retention in the pellets were measured by the centrifugal method: ASTM D425-88. The pellets of the coal refuses showed the higher values of the field capacity and the plant-available water than that of kaolin pellet. These results suggest the very low cost process that can utilize the coal refuses and can fabricate the lightweight porous soil conditioner of the very high plant-available water.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in soil temperature, soil moisture content, light availability (photosynthetically active radiation, PAR) and diameter growth in 46-year-old Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis Siebold et Zuccarini) plantation located in Gwangneung experimental forest after 4 years from thinning. Three different thinning intensities [control, 45%(T45), and 60%(T60) basal area reduction] were applied in 2004. Mean soil temperature and soil water content were $8.9^{\circ}C$ and 14.3% for control, $10^{\circ}C$ and 16.1% for T45 and $10.2^{\circ}C$ and 16.1% for T60, respectively. Mean soil temperature and moisture content were significantly different among the treatment plots (p<0.05). Mean PAR in control, T45 and T60 was 44, 143 and178 ${\mu}mol/m^2$/sec, respectively and the differences were also statistically significant among the treatment plots (p<0.05). Mean annual diameter growth in control, T45 and T60 was 0.4, 1.5 and 1.2 mm, respectively. Diameter growth of Pinus koraiensis was steadily increased after thinning in comparison to control. Consequently, the results suggested that soil temperature, soil moisture content and light availability were likely to last beyond the 4 years after thinning in this Korean pine plantation.

Anaerobic soils limit the amount of free oxygen available in the rhizosphere and therefore will impede grass root development and restrain nutrient availability for turf growth. An in-situ study was conducted on existing greens to investigate the relationship between $CO_2$ content in the rhizosphere and turf quality. Nine greens were selected in the study. On each green, five 1-m diameter circular plots were randomly selected for conducting the experiment. The greens were sampled 7 times from August, 1998 to August, 1999. Data collected from each plot included turf quality index, $CO_2$ content, and physical properties of the rooting mixtures. Turf quality declined drastically when $CO_2$ content in rhizosphere increased to $5\;to\;6{\mu}LL^{-1}$ during the late summer season. The $CO_2$ content increased as water content in the root zone increased, but was inversely related to infiltration rate. Cultivation of a golf green may reduce $CO_2$ content in the rhizosphere, but the benefit of cultivation decreased with time.

배나무잎 이상반점증상의 발병환경 조건을 조사하고자 실험한 결과 주간 23$^{\circ}C$, 야간 18$^{\circ}C$ 온도조건에서 병징발현이 가장 심하였고 이보다 높은 온도인 28/23$^{\circ}C$와 낮은 온도인 18/13$^{\circ}C$에서는 발병이 아주 적었다. 배나무잎에 봉지를 피복하면 발병이 전혀 없거나 극히 저조하였다. 이것은 봉지내의 온도가 최고 46.8$^{\circ}C$까지 올라가 고온에 의하여 발병이 억제된 것으로 생각된다. 이병주 토양과 건전주 토양의 화학성을 조사한 결과 이병주 토양에서는 건전주 토양보다 유효인산량이 많게 나타났다. 토양수분이 많거나 적었을 때는 병징발현이 다소 늦어지기는 하나 최종 조사시 발병정도는 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다.
