In a survey of periphytic and benthic diatoms in Korea, diatoms of genus Stauroneis were found to be widely distributed over freshwaters, rivers and streams, lakes and reservoir, wetlands in lowland and mountain areas, and even subaerial terrestrial habitats. However, it is clear that Stauroneis diatoms prefer peatlands, which can be more or less acidic or oligotrophic environments in freshwaters. In this study, Staurones diatoms were collected mainly from mountain peatlands. Twenty five taxa were confirmed to be species, while some specimens remain unidentified. Approximately twenty species have been reported in Korea in the past, but these are largely S. anceps Ehremberg sensu lato, S. phoenicenteron (Nitzsch) Eherenberg sensu lato, and their infraspecies variety or forma. Sixteen of the twenty five Stauroneis taxa found in this survey are reported for the first time in Korea.

인도네시아의 열대 이탄지는 황폐화되고 농경지 및 조림지로 전용되어왔다. 수로는 열대 이탄지의 지하수위를 관리하고 작물의 생산성을 높이기 위해 설치되었으나, 열대 이탄지의 구조를 파괴하고 침하 및 산불 발생 위험을 증가시켰다. 이에 따라, 인도네시아 정부는 수로로 인한 문제를 막기 위한 정책과 모라토리엄을 마련하였다. 그리고 해당 정책들에 따라 이탄지 재습지화에 관한 시범사업들이 일부 수행되었다. 우리나라가 열대 이탄지를 재습지화 한다면 추후 탄소 배출권을 확보할 수 있는 가능성이 있으므로, 적절한 재습지화에 관한 자료가 필요하다. 이에 따라, 본 연구에서는 열대 이탄지에 적용되는 정책의 흐름을 조사하고 이 시범사업들의 설치 계획, 고려사항, 댐 설계, 재료, 설치 방법, 모니터링 방법, 그리고 소요 시간 및 비용 등에 대해 분석하였다. 이탄층의 깊이가 3 m 이상인 지역은 개발이 제한되고 개발 허가 발급이 중단되었으며, 복원을 위한 수로차단이 설치되었다. 이 지역에서는 댐의 지속성과 지역 이해당사자들의 참여를 독려하는 것이 우선순위로 여겨졌다. 개발 허가지역의 경우에는 개벌과 화전이 금지되었으며, 지하수위를 유지하기 위한 수로차단에 목적을 두었고, 수로차단을 설치할 때에는 작업 및 비용의 효율성이 우선적으로 고려되었다. 조사 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 인도네시아 열대 이탄지의 규제 적용 및 수로차단 설치 시 적용할 수 있는 방안들을 제시하였다. 이러한 결과는 동남아시아 지역의 배수된 열대 이탄지에 적합한 수로차단을 계획하는 데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Peatlands are marginal agricultural lands due to highly acidic soil conditions and poor drainage systems. Drought stress is a big problem in peatlands as it can affect plants through poor root development, so technological innovations are needed to increase the productivity and sustainability of upland rice on peatlands. Rhizobacteria can overcome the effects of drought stress by altering root morphology, regulating stress-responsive genes, and producing exopolysaccharides and indole acetic acid (IAA). This study aimed to determine the ability of rhizobacteria in upland rice to produce exopolysaccharides and IAA, identify potential isolates using molecular markers, and prove the effect of rhizobacteria on viability and vigor index in upland rice. Rhizobacterial isolates were grown on yeast extract mannitol broth (YEMB) medium for exopolysaccharides production testing and Nutrient Broth (NB)+L-tryptophan medium for IAA production testing. The selected isolates identify using sequence 16S rRNA. The variables observed in testing the effect of rhizobacteria were germination ability, vigour index, and growth uniformity. EPS-1 isolate is the best production of exopolysaccharides (41.6 mg/ml) and IAA (60.83 ppm). The isolate EPS-1 was identified as Klebsiella variicola using 16S rRNA sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. The isolate EPS-1 can increase the viability and vigor of upland rice seeds. K. variicola is more adaptive and has several functional properties that can be developed as a potential bioagent or biofertilizer to improve soil nutrition, moisture and enhance plant growth. The use of rhizobacteria can reduce dependence on the use of synthetic materials with sustainable agriculture.

습지내의 용존유기탄소의 함량과 구성은 이차생산, 다양한 생지화학적 반응, 그리고 수생태계의 기능에 중요한 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 북구이탄습지 (bog, fen, swamp)의 공극수내의 용존유기탄소와 페놀계열 물질의 농도를 1997년도에 1년에 걸쳐 조사하였다. 일반적인 미생물의 활성 (토양 호흡도)와 페놀산화효소의 활성도 측정하여, 용존유기탄소와 페놀계열 물질의 변화에 대한 기작을 밝히고자 했다 용존유기탄소 농도는 25.5-45.4 (bog), 29.2-71.4 (fen), 13.5-87.6 (swamp) mg/L를 보였고, 페놀계열 물질의 경우에는 13.3-45.4 (bog),7.6-29.5 (fen),4.9-30.8 (swamp) mg/L의 변화정도를 보였다. Swamp에서의 계절적인 변화양상을 살펴보면, 낙엽생산이 용존유기탄소의 변화에 많은 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다 Bog에서의 미생물활성도와 페놀산화효소의 활성이 가장 낮게 나타났는데 이것이 bog내의 높은 페놀계열물질의 농도를 야기시킨 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구의결과는 습지내 용존유기탄소의 양 뿐만 아니라 그 화학적인 구성이 습지 생지화학에서 중요함을 보여주었다.

Background: Repeated and severe fires have led to a large investment in research directed towards recapturing the natural values of Indonesia's peatland forest resources. The aim of this study was to identify the patterns and trends in research on peatland restoration-related literature available on the Scopus database. Methods in this paper a bibliometric methodology, the Scopus database and VOSviewer were used explore the trends in the published peatland restoration literature in the period 1994-2021; the leading journals and most influential authors, affiliations, countries, documents and research themes were identified. Results: Three hundred and seventeen documents including 266 journal articles were identified. The leading journals based on numbers of articles published and citations were Restoration Ecology and Ecological Engineering. Authors affiliated to institutions in Canada and the United Kingdom were the most influential. Indonesia was the third most influential based on numbers of documents. The most influential article was "The underappreciated potential of peatlands in global climate change mitigation strategies" by Liefield J in Nature Communications with an annual average citation rate of 66/year. A keyword co-occurrence network identified nine main themes in peat restoration research. Conclusions: The findings of the study are used to outline the types of research in peat restoration now required to meet the outstanding and unmet challenges confronted in Indonesia. Three significant challenges have been identified: (1) anthropogenic, those that encompass issues related to community acceptance and participation in peatland restoration, (2) ecological, those associated with severely degraded peatlands, and (3) economic, the absence of secure funding to cover substantial costs.

Measurements of phosphatase activity in peatlands are made difficult by the low levels of activity and the characteristically high concentrations of dissolved organic matter within the sediments. These materials may cause high background absorbances in colorimetric assays, and quenching interference in fluorimetric assays. This review describes the development of a new approach which allows such problems to be overcome by using HPLC to separate the interferences from the products of enzymic hydrolysis. This approach is applicable to various environmental samples such as peat, wetland sediment, and sludge which may contain a large amount of interfering organic matters.

세 종류의 이탄습지 (bog, fen, swamp)에서 탄수유기물 분해에 관여하는 일군의 체외 효소 활성도. 미량 기체 ($CO_2$와 $N_2O$), DOC 변화 등을 12개월에 걸쳐 측정하였다 ${\beta}-glucosidase$, cellobiohydrolase, ${\beta}-xylosidase$, N-acetylglucosaminidase 등이 각각 $0.008-0.066\;{\mu}mole\;g^{-1}\;min^{-1}$, $0.003-0.021\;{\mu}mole\;g^{-1}\;min^{-1}$, $0.003-0.016\;{\mu}mole\;g^{-1}\;min^{-1}$, $0.004-0.047\;{\mu}mole\;g^{-1}\;min^{-1}$ 범위의 활성도를 보였다. 전반적으로 swamp에서의 활성도가 가장 높았고, fen과 bog의 순서로 나타났다. 세 종류 습지의 자료를 모두 합쳤을 때, 효소의 활성도는 미량 기체의 발생량이나 가용한 탄소의 양과 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 또한, 4가지 효소 활성도의 평균값은 미량기체와 가용한 탄소량의 변화에 있어서 20-40% 정도의 변이를 설명할 수 있었다. 이 결과로 비추어, 유기탄소 무기화에 관여하는 효소는 북구 이탄습지에서 미량기체 발생과 DOC 동태에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 사료된다.

Construction of an artificial wetland for the growth of Sphagnum palustre with emergent macrophytes (Phragmites australis, Typha angustifolia, and Zizania latifolia) was firstly tried and the growth of those plant components according to various environmental combinations has been monitored for three years. Above-ground dry weight of Z. latifolia ($1,500g/m^2$) was higher than T. angustifolia ($900g/m^2$) and P. australis ($500g/m^2$) under most environmental conditions. In overall, planted emergent macrophytes seemed to prefer polishing sand without moss peat as a substrate and relatively deep water-depth condition (20cm) rather than shallow water-depth (5cm). Despite of high calcium content in inflow water (> 15ppm) into the constructed wetland, S. palustre populations have survived in most experimental plots during the monitoring period. Substrate layer including moss peat with high surface-area might play a role as an ion-filter. After three years, relatively thicker litter-layer in Z. latifolia plots due to vigorous growth appeared to heavily depress S. palustre by physical compressing and complete shading processes. Most of all, for the continuous growth of S. palustre, physio-chemical characteristics of water and substrate must be carefully managed. In addition, companion emergent species should be also cautiously selected not to depress S. palustre by much litter production. We suggest P. australis and T. angustifolia as companion species rather than Z. latifolia.
