In hydrological surveys, observation through representative location is essential due to temporal and spatial limitations and constraints. Regarding the use of hydrological data and the accuracy of the data, there are still insufficient observatories to be used in a specific watershed. In addition, since there is virtually no standard for the location of the current evapotranspiration, this study proposes a method for determining the location of the evapotranspiration. To determining the location of evapotranspiration, a grid is selected in consideration of the operating range of the Flux Tower using the eddy covariance measurement method, which is mainly used to measure evapotranspiration. The grid of representative location was calculated using the factors affecting evapotranspiration and satellite data of evapotranspiration. The grid of representative location was classified as good, fair, and poor. As a result, the number of good grids calculated was 54. It is judged that the classification of the grid has been achieved regarding topography and land use as a characteristic that appeared in the classification of the grid. In particular, in the case of elevation or city area, there was a large deviation, and the calculated good grid was judged to be a group between the two distributions.

In this paper, lysimeter was installed to analyze the moisture fluctuations on the surface of a forest. The weight of the soil was measured, and the moisture fluctuations were calculated through the difference in weight over time. The amount of dew condensation on the surface of the ground was about 2-7 mm. January experienced the most dew condensation (7.2 mm). It was found that about 43 mm of dew condensation was generated over one year. To analyze the characteristics of evapotranspiration in the forest, the evapotranspiration on the surface was measured by the lysimeter method and the evapotranspiration on the upper part of the canopy was measured by the eddy covariance method. These results were compared and analyzed. Until mid-October, the evapotranspiration of the forest was active, and the amount of evapotranspiration on the top of the canopy was higher than the amount on the surface. Thereafter, the amount of evapotranspiration on the top of the canopy decreased due to the lowering of temperature and net-radiation. The amount of evapotranspiration on the surface and above the canopy showed the same tendency.

This study was conducted to find out the methodology of carbon budget assessment among soil, atmosphere and plant. Soil respiration, net ecosystem productivity of herbs and net ecosystem productivity of woody plants have been measured in 30 years old pear orchard at Naju. Closed Dynamic Chamber (CDC) method was used to measure soil respiration and net ecosystem productivity of herbs. Net ecosystem productivity of woody plant (pear) was determined by eddy covariance method using the EddyPro (5.2.1) program. As for soil respiration, $429.1mgCO_2m^{-2}h^{-1}$ was released to atmosphere and sensitivity of soil temperature ($Q_{10}$) was 2.3. In case of herbs, respiration was superior to photosynthesis during measurement period. From 20 to 24 Jun 2015, the sum of absorbed and released $CO_2$ by herb's photosynthesis and respiration was $156.1mgCO_2m^{-2}h^{-1}$. Woody plants showed the $680.1mgCO_2m^{-2}h^{-1}$ of absorption by photosynthesis. In a farm scale, the sum of soil respiration, and net ecosystem productivity of herbs and woody plants was $0.04tonCO_2ha^{-1}$ during the measurement period, and it showed that pear orchard act as a $CO_2$ sink. This study using various approaches is expected to present a methodology for evaluating the carbon budget of perennial woody crop plantations.

The standardized eddy covariance flux data processing in KoFlux has been updated, and its database has been amended accordingly. KoFlux data users have not been informed properly regarding these changes and the likely impacts on their analyses. In this paper, we have documented how the current structure of data processing in KoFlux has been established through the changes and improvements to ensure transparency, reliability and usability of the KoFlux database. Due to increasing diversity and complexity of flux site instrumentation and organization, we have re-implemented the previously ignored or simplified procedures in data processing (e.g., frequency response correction, stationarity test), and added new methods for $CH_4$ flux gap-filling and $CO_2$ flux correction and partitioning. To evaluate the effects of the changes, we processed the data measured at a flat and homogeneous paddy field (i.e., HPK) and a deciduous forest in complex and heterogeneous topography (i.e., GDK), and quantified the differences. Based on the results from our overall assessment, it is confirmed that (1) the frequency response correction (HPK: 11~18% of biases for annually integrated values, GDK: 6~10%) and the stationarity test (HPK: 4~19% of biases for annually integrated values, GDK: 9~23%) are important for quality control and (2) the minimization of the missing data and the choice of the appropriate driver (rather than the choice of the gap-filling method) are important to reduce the uncertainty in gap-filled fluxes. These results suggest the future directions for the data processing technology development to ensure the continuity of the long-term KoFlux database.

Surface energy and $CO_2$ fluxes have been measured over a farmland in Haenam, Korea since July 2002. Eddy covariance technique, which is the only direct flux measurement method, was employed to quantitatively understand the interaction between the farmland ecosystem and the atmospheric boundary layer. Maintenance of eddy covariance system was the main concern during the early stage of measurement to minimize gaps and uncertainties in the dataset. Half-hourly averaged $CO_2$ concentration showed distinct diurnal and seasonal variations, which were closely related to changes in net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of $CO_2$. Daytime maximum $CO_2$ uptake was about -1.0 mg $CO_2$ m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ in August whereas nighttime $CO_2$ release was up to 0.3 mg $CO_2$ m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ during the summer. Both daytime $CO_2$ uptake and nighttime release decreased gradually with season. During the winter season, NEE was from near zero to 0.05 mg $CO_2$ m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ . FK site was a moderate sink of atmospheric $CO_2$ until September with daily NEE of 22 g $CO_2$ m$^{-2}$ d$^{-1}$ . In October, it became a weak source of $CO_2$ with an emission rate of 2 g $CO_2$ m$^{-2}$ d$^{-1}$ . Long-term flux measurements will continue at FK site to further investigate inter-annual variability in NEE. to better understand these exchange mechanism and in-depth analysis, process-level field experiments and intensive short-term intercomparisons are also expected to be followed.

현재 국내외에서는 양질의 증발산을 관측하여 활용하기 위해 증발접시 (evaporation pan), 침루계 (lysimeter) 등을 이용하여 실측하거나 Flux Tower에서 Eddy covariance technique, Bowen ratio method 등을 이용하여 경험적으로 산정하고 있다. 이러한 방법으로 산정되는 증발산은 크게 두 분류로 나눌 수 있다. 일반적인 기후 상태에서 유역의 토양이 증발산에 방해를 받지 않을 정도로 충분히 물을 포함하고 있고, 식생이 조밀한 상태에서의 증발산량을 의미하는 잠재 증발산과 실제 산정치인 실제 증발산으로 나눌 수 있다 (Thornthwait, 1939). 본 연구에서는 유역의 잠재 증발산을 산정하여 실제 증발산과 비교를 통해 적용성을 확인하고자 한다. 잠재 증발산을 산정하는 방법은 Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 인공위성 데이터를 이용한 원격탐사 기술을 적용하여 산정한다. 원격탐사 기술은 지상 관측의 단점을 보완한 것으로써, 날씨, 인간 활동 등 주변 외부 환경의 영향에 민감하게 반응하여 공간적인 분포 현황을 파악하는 것이 어려운 지상 관측의 한계점을 대체하기 위한 방법이다. 이들 방법으로는 가장 널리 쓰이는 Penman-Monteith (Penman, 1948; Monteith, 1965), 일별 최대, 최저, 평균 기온을 이용한 Hargreaves 방법 (Hargreaves, 1985)과 Priestley-Taylor 방법 (Priestley and Taylor, 1972) 등의 세 가지 방법을 소개하였다. 세 가지 방법으로 산정된 잠재 증발산을 통해 해당 유역의 잠재 증발산의 공간적인 거동을 파악해 볼 수 있다.

최근 기후 변화로 인한 기상이변으로 인해 가뭄의 심도와 지속시간이 길어져 이로 인한 피해가 가중되고 있다. 본 연구는 국가 물 관리에 필요한 증발산량 자료 생산과 특성을 분석할 목적으로 수행되었으며, 본 연구 결과는 국가 물 관리 및 가뭄 분석 등에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 2010년 국토교통부에서는 "국가수문관측망"에 증발산량 관측소를 포함하여 증발산량 자료가 정기적으로 생산될 수 있게 하였다. 계획수립 이후 일정기간 동안은 관측 방법과 품질관리 방법 등의 체계화되지 않아 전국적으로 확대되지 못하다가 최근에 와서 확대 설치되고 있다. 현재에는 증발산량 관측소가 한강수계 4개소, 금강수계 2개소, 영산강수계 3개소에서 운영되고 있다. 국토교통부 증발산량 관측소는 에디공분산 방식으로 구축되어 있으며, 자료는 30분 간격으로 생산되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 설마천 관측소의 3개년(2015년~2017년) 자료로 산지 증발산량의 경년 변화를 분석하였다. KoFlux 표준화 프로그램(spike 제거, 밀도 보정 등)으로 자료를 처리하였으며, 자료 보충(Gap-filling)은 FAO-PM, MDV, Kalman Filter 방법으로 수행하였다. 설마천 관측소에서 증발산량을 산정하여 산지 증발산량의 경년변화를 분석한 결과, 증발산량은 강수량과 순복산량의 규모에 따라 상이하였다. 또한 비교적 강수량이 적은 해에 증발산 비율이 커지는 특성을 나타내었다. 이는 가뭄 시 증발산을 왕성하게 하는 환경이 조성되어 발생되는 것으로 분석되었다.

울창한 숲에도 어느 정도 햇빛은 들 듯이, 태양복사에너지는 식생의 잎과 흙에 모두 미치며, 그로 인해 증산과 증발이 각각 발생한다. 이러한 사실을 반영하는 것은 현존하는 증발산 산정 방법을 개선하여 더 나은 증발산 추정치를 구하는 데에 도움이 될 것이다. 이 연구에서는 증발 표면을 수직적으로 흙층(soil layer)과 잎층(canopy layer)으로 나눠진 다층 구조로 바라보고, 각 층에서 증발산을 계산하는 방법을 도입했다. 증발 표면을 수직 상에서 구분했기에 각 층의 환경 조건은 그 층을 대표하는 높이에서 관측된 기상자료를 활용할 수 있다. 또한, 식생 활기에 따른 각 층의 복사에너지 유입량과 기공의 여닫힘에 따른 Bowen 비를 통해 식생이 증발산에 미치는 영향을 반영하는 것이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 Fluxnet에서 제공하는 공분산 방법(eddy covariance method)으로 측정한 자료를 참고하여 다층 구조가 실제 증발산 산정에 타당한가를 논했다. 시스템 내 변화는 주어진 조건에서 엔트로피가 최대로 생성되는 방향으로 발생한다는 Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) 이론을 기반으로 만들어진 증발산 산정법을 통해 각 층의 증발산을 계산했으며, 관측 증발산을 토대로 잎층과 흙층에 유입된 복사에너지의 크기를 비교했다. 결과적으로 잎층에 계산된 복사에너지 흡수능이 낙엽수림의 변화 주기를 잘 반영하는 것을 확인했으며 다층 구조를 도입하는 것이 증발산 산정 향상과 수문-식생 관계를 고려한 증발산 분석에 적절한 접근법임을 보였다.

Agro-ecosystem plays an important role in the mitigation of atmospheric $CO_2$ concentration through photosynthesis and soil carbon fixation. The perennial crops have capacity of carbon accumulation because they have lived for years in the same position. Carbon dioxide fixation occurs in the fruit orchard by photosynthesis and soil carbon sequestration. The objectives of this review are to introduce the fruit orchard as a carbon dioxide sink and to summarize the methods that measure $CO_2$ flux in the orchard. There are three difference methods (chamber, biomass, and eddy covariance method) to measure $CO_2$ exchanges on sites. However, there is no standard method suitable for fruit cultivation condition in Korea. Thus the standard method have to be developed in order to exactly estimate the carbon accumulation. In foreign studies, the carbon assessments were conducted in apple, peach, olive, grape orchard and so on. On the other hand the estimation of $CO_2$ exchange was carried out for apple and mandarine orchard in Korea. According to these results, fruit orchard is a $CO_2$ sink even though amount of carbon accumulation is smaller than the forest. To introduce certainly fruit orchard as greenhouse gas sink, long-term monitoring and further study have to be conducted under each planting condition.

Terrestrial ecosystem are a strong sink of carbon. Forest ecosystem, one of them, has been expected to play an important role in climate changing process by absorbing atmospheric carbon dioxide. On the other hand, agricultural ecosystem that consists mainly of annual crops is regarded as poor contributor to carbon accumulation, because its production (carbon hydrate) is decomposed into carbon at a short period, which is emitted to the atmosphere. However, it is thought that fruit tree plays a great role in decreasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration, same as forest. Net ecosystem exchange of $CO_2$ (NEE) was measured to estimate carbon fixation capacity using an eddy covariance (EC) system method in 2 years from 2005 to 2006 at an apple orchard in Uiseong, Gyeongbuk. Average air temperature values were higher in 2006 than in 2005 during the dormant season, and lower by about $5^{\circ}C$ over the growing season causing visible cold injuries. Accordingly, we investigated long-term exchange of carbon to determine how much difference of carbon fixation capacity was shown between 2006 and 2005 in terms of environmental and plant variables such as NEE, leaf area index (LAI), and Albedo. NEE was $4.8Mg\;C\;ha^{-1}yr^{-1}$ in 2005 and $4.7Mg\;C\;ha^{-1}yr^{-1}$ in 2006, respectively. Low temperature after July in 2006 decreased LAI values faster than those in 2005. Meanwhile, Albedo values were higher after July in 2006 than in 2005. These results show that the low temperature after July in 2006 apparently affected apple growth.
