도시의 가로수들이 열악한 부지 조건과 적절하지 않은 가로수 관리로 인해 죽는 현상이 몇몇 도시에서 발생하고 있다. 열악한 부지 조건과 적절하지 않은 가로수 관리에는 생물학적·기상학적으로 많은 요소들이 있고, 그 밖에 도시 설계로 인한 요인들로 다양하다. 그중 연구지역인 춘천시에서는 가로수가 죽는 원인 중 토양수분이 가장 큰 원인일 것이라고 판단하였다. 토양수분 분포의 시간적 공간적 특성들은 증발, 침투, 지하수 함량, 토양 침식, 식생 분포 등을 지배하는 중요한 요소이며, 토양수분 연구는 물순환과정의 특성을 이해하는데 있어서 필수적인 과정이다. 하지만 토양수분 분석은 중요성에 비해 활발한 연구가 이루어지지 않고 있으며, 특히 가로수 토양수분에 대해서는 연구가 없는 실정이다. 따라서 가로수 토양수분 모니터링을 실시하였고, 장기적인 가로수 관리를 위해 모델링을 하였다. 모델링 기초자료 확보를 위한 토양수분 모니터링은 춘천시의 가로수 중 세 군데를 선정해 각각 10, 20, 30 cm에 센서를 설치하였다. 이를 통해 약 1년간의 토양수분 함량 데이터를 수집하였고, 모니터링 지점의 토양을 샘플링 후 분석하여 물리, 화학, 생물성 데이터를 수집하였다. 모델링은 RZWQM(Root Zone Water Quality Model)을 이용하여 시나리오를 구성하였다. 모델링 결과를 활용해 가로수 및 도시 표토 기능을 위협하는 요인을 분석하였다.

This study measures the influence of grass cover on water use and shoot growth of apple trees growing under different soil water regimes in temperate climate conditions and evaluates monthly crop coefficients of such conditions during four months of the growing season in 1995. To do so, double pot lysimeter experiments of 3-year-old Fuji' apple (Males domestica Borkh.) trees under a transparent rain shield were designed and installed. Trees were triplicate under three soil water regimes: (A) drip-irrigation at -50 kPa of soil matric potential (IR50). (B) drip-irrigation at -80 kPa of soil matric potential (IR80), and (C) constant shallow water table at 0.45 m below the soil surface (WT45). In each treatment, two soil surface conditions were tested: the soil surface bare, and covered with turf grasses. Mean monthly water use increased with increasing soil matric potential for drip irrigation and was greatest in the WT45 treatment. Monthly crop coefficients increased linearly in time for drip-irrigated apple trees ($r^2$ values of $0.953^{***}$ for turf grass-covered system and of $0.862^{***}$ for bare surface system), while those obtained in the WT45 treatment fluctuated, Duncan's multiple range tests for shoot growth showed that grass-covered IR50 was most favorable to apple trees. while bare surface waterlogged situation was most adverse at least in part due to a lack of oxygen in the root zone. Mid-season leaf Kjeldahl-N was higher in drip-irrigated apple trees than in WT45 trees, while soil Kjeldahl-N was not different irrespective of treatments.

Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort. is included in Umbelliferae family, it is one of the Korean traditional medicinal plants as the roots have been used to treat diseases. In this study, the growth characteristics and active compound contents of L. chuanxiong were compared among the different forest sites. As a result, root diameter and root length of L. chuanxiong was the highest in Jeongseon. Also, the fresh weight and dry weight of L. chuanxiong were the highest in Jeongseon. The total content of active compound was 23.27 mg/g the highest in Bonghwa, and 21.59 mg/g in Jeongseon, 15.87 mg/g in Hamyang was accumulated. In this study compares three forest site for cultivating of L. chuanxiong in different climate zone that the best site to product yield were Jeongseon. In this sites were located in higher altitue and lower temperature than other sites, also there were shown that lower soil moisture contents and well-drained soil. It was shown yield and active compound contents of L. chuanxiong was influenced by micro-environment conditions like as altitude, temperature, soil conditions.

This study was carried out to investigate effects of soil water content on growth and antioxidative enzymes activity of tomato seedlings during the nursery period. The water stress significantly damages morphological, physiological, and biochemical activities in plants. The seedlings planted with soil on the tray were irrigated and categorized into 3 groups with 30 g, 40 g, and 50 g of plant-soil weight. After then, the changes in weight of the soil and the seedling were measured evey 2 hours for 4 days and the leaf temperature was measured with the thermal-camera at the same time. The antioxidant enzymes were measured to determine the level of stress using all of the seedling samples. The result showed that the decrease of soil weight in the day time was faster than that in the night time, but there was no significant difference in the weight loss of the seedlings and soil among the groups. However, the group with 50 g of wight showed the highest SOD and POD contents. This is considered that the continuously wet soil on the root zone of the seedlings caused more stress for the seedlings. Therefore, it is concluded that the excess moisture content causes stress to stimulate the secretion of antioxidant enzymes, and the effect of stress is required to be analyzed comprehensively using environmental data and also the physiological data that are collected over a longer period.

The lower portion of sloping paddy fields normally contains excessive moisture and the higher water table caused by the inflow of ground water from the upper part of the field resulting in non-uniform water content distribution. Four drainage methods namely Open Ditch, Vinyl Barrier, Pipe Drainage and Tube Bundle for multiple land use were installed within 1-m position from the lower edge of the upper embankment of sloping alluvial paddy fields. This study was conducted to evaluate soil physical characteristics by drainage improvement in poorly drained sloping paddy field. The results showed that subsurface drainage by Pipe Drainage improves the productivity of poorly drained soils by lowering the water table and improving root zone soil layer condition. In an Pipe drainage plot, soil moisture drained faster as compared to the other drainage methods. Infiltration rate showed high tendency to Piper Drainage method about $20.87mm\;hr^{-1}$ than in Open Ditch method $0.15mm\;hr^{-1}$. And Similarly soil water and degree of hardness and shear strength phase of soil profile showed a tendency to decrease. From the above results, we found that when an subsurface drainage was established with at 1m position from the lower edge paddy levee of the upper field in sloping poorly drained paddy fields Pipe Drainage was the most effective drainage system for multiple land use.

Maintenance of adequate soil tension or content during the period of crop growth is necessary to support optimum plant growth and yields. A better understanding of soil tension and content for precision irrigation would allow optimal soil water condition to crops and minimize the adverse effects of water stress on crop growth and development. This research reports on a comparison of soil water tension and content variations in differently textured soils over time under drip irrigation using two different water management methods, i.e. pulse time and required water irrigation methods. The pulse time-based irrigation was performed by turning the solenoid valve on and off for preset times to allow the wetting front to disperse in root zone before additional water was applied. The required water estimation method was a new water control logic designed by Rural Development Administration that applies the amount of water required based on a conversion of the measured water tension into water content. The use of the pulse time irrigation method under drip irrigation at a high tension of -20 kPa and high temperatures over $30^{\circ}C$ was not successful at maintaining moisture tensions within an appropriate range of 5 kPa because the preset irrigation times used for water control could not compensate for the change in evapotranspiration during day and night. The response time and pattern of water contents for all of the tested soils measured with capacitance-based sensor probes were faster and more direct than those of water tensions measured with porous and ceramic cup-based tensiometers when water was applied, indicating water content would be a better control variable for automatic irrigation. The required water estimation-based irrigation method provided relatively stable control of moisture tension, even though somewhat lower tension values were obtained as compared to the target tension of -20 kPa, indicating that growers could expect to be effective in controlling low tensions ranging from -10 to -20 kPa with the required water estimation system.
