Influence of herbicide oxadiazon on soil microbial activity and nitrogen dynamics was evaluated. Soil samples were treated with oxadiazon at field and tenfold field rates and incubated. Organic amendment was added as an additional substrate for soil microorganisms. Tenfold field rate oxadiazon stimulated substrate-induced respiration (SIR) and dehydrogenase activity (DHA) in amended soil as compared to unamended soil and control treatment. Soil urease activity was not affected by oxadiazon treatment. In both amended and unamended soils, treatment of the herbicide at higher rate had not significant influence on $NH_4$-N and $NO_3$-N concentrations. Higher dose of oxadiazon was degraded in both soils, but dissipation rate in amended soil was higher than unamended soil, with half-lives ($t_{1/2}$) of 23.1 and 138.6 days, respectively. Recommended field rate did not affect microbial activity and nitrogen dynamics in soil ecosystem. Results showed influence of oxadiazon on cycling processes of nitrogen in soil was not significant however its effect on microbial activity was a tendency depending on addition of organic amendment to soil.

The microbial degradation of $poly-{\beta}-hydroxybutyrate$ (PHB) films was studied in soil microco는 incubated at a constant temperature of 2, 10, 20, 30 and $40^{\circ}C$ for up to 49 days. The degradation rate measured through loss of weight was enhanced by incubation at a higher temperature. At the soil temperature $40^{\circ}C$, $poly-{\beta}-hydroxybutyrate$ was rapidly degraded at a decay rate of 3.5% weight loss per day. The degradation of $poly-{\beta}-hydroxybutyrate$ did not affected significantly the chemical properties of soils such as pH and electric conductivity. However, microbial activity of soil in terms of dehydrogenase activity was increased by the degradation of $poly-{\beta}-hydroxybutyrate$.

지리산 국립공원 동부지 역에 위치한 중산리, 백무동, 대원사 산구야영장 등 4개의 야영장조성지와 인접한 산림지역의 토양 특성을 비교한 결과 토양용적밀도, 토양경도, 토양 pH, 투수율, 토양호흡율 등의 토양 특성은 산림지역과 야영장 조성지 사이에 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 그러나 표토($0{\sim}15cm$)와 심토($15{\sim}30cm$) 사이에 깊이별 토양특성은 야영장 조성지와 산림지역 모두 차이가 없었다(p>0.05). 토양용적밀도의 경우 산림지역 $0.95g/cm^3$, 야영장 조성지 $1.29{\sim}1.44g/cm^3$로, 야영장 조성지가 산림지역에 비해 높았으며, 토양경도는 산림지역 $1.44kg/cm^2$, 야영장 조성지 $2.9{\sim}4.0kg/cm^2$로 유의적인 차이가 있었다(p<0.05). 토양공극율의 경우 산림지역은 64.3%로 야영장 조성지 $45.7{\sim}51.4%$에 비해 높았고, 토양 PH는 산림지역 pH 5.46, 야영장 조성지 $pH\;5.49{\sim}pH\;6.38$ 범위에 분포하였다. 투수율의 경우산림지역 18.7cc/초, 야영장 조성지 $0.79{\sim}2.06cc$/초, 토양호흡율은 산림지역 $0.58gCO_2/m^2/h$로, 야영장 조성지 $0.13{\sim}0.34gCO_2/m^2/h$에 비해 높게 나타났다.

퇴비, 화학비료, 중금속, 합성세제를 첨가한 토양중 살균제 oxadixyl의 분해성에 대하여 연구한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 토양중 oxadixyl은 매우 느리게 분해가 진행되는 lag phase후에 분해가 빨라졌으며 분해 반감기는 10.5일이었다. 퇴비 첨가는 oxadixyl의 분해를 크게 촉진시켰다. Oxadixyl의 분해는 칼리 첨가에 의하여 크게 촉진되었으나 질소와 인산에 의하여는 거의 영향을 받지 않았다. 토양중 oxadixyl의 분해는 중금속 첨가에 의하여 억제되었으며 억제 정도는 Ni이 가장 컸으며 다음은 Cd, Cr, Cu, Zn순이었다. 합성 세제 첨가 또한 oxadixyl의 분해를 억제시켰다. 각종 물질을 첨가한 토양중에서 oxadixyl의 분해율은 토양의 microbial biomass나 호흡률과 높은 정의 상관 관계를 보여 각종 첨가 물질이 oxadixyl의 분해를 촉진 혹은 억제하는 것은 이들 첨가 물질이 분해 미생물의 생육을 촉진 또는 억제하였기 때문으로 판단되었다.

Background: To assess the carbon sequestration capacity and net ecosystem productivity (NEP) of Quercus glauca forests, we analyzed the net primary productivity (NPP), carbon storage, and carbon emission of soil in a Q. glauca forest on Jeju Island (South Korea) from 2016 to 2018. Results: The average carbon stock in the above- and below-ground plant biomass was 223.7 Mg C ha^-1, while the average amount of organic carbon fixed by photosynthesis was 9.8 Mg C ha^-1 yr^-1, and the average NPP was 9.6 Mg C ha^-1 yr^-1. Stems and branches contributed to the majority of the above- and below-ground standing biomass and NPP. The average heterotrophic carbon emission from the soil was 8.7 Mg C ha^-1 yr^-1, while the average NEP was 1.1 Mg C ha^-1 yr^-1. Although the carbon stock, carbon absorption, and soil respiration values were higher than those reported in other oak forests in the world, the NEP was similar or lower. Conclusions: These results indicator that Q. glauca forests perform the role of a large carbon sink through the CO₂ absorption in the plants in terms of carbon balance. And it is judged to be helpful as data for assessment of carbon storage and flux in the forests and mitigation of elevated CO₂ in the atmosphere.

Physiological characteristics of Panax ginseng were reviewed in relation to temperature. According to the old literatures and records of cultivator's experiences it was elucidated that ginseng plants require light but hate high temperature and that the cultural methods were developed to content two characteristics in contradiction. Low temperature (cool climate) during growing season seems (or ginseng to be essential and to escape from the extreme coldness according to air and soil temperature of natural habitat and cultivated area. Optimum temperature of dehiscence (15∼below 20$^{\circ}C$) is a little higher than that of germination (10∼15$^{\circ}C$). Optimum temperature for growing of new buds (18∼20$^{\circ}C$) is similar to that for growing after emergence (17∼21$^{\circ}C$). Dormancy of both matured embryo and new buds is broken at the same temperature (2∼3$^{\circ}C$). It seems reasonable that optimum temperature of photosynthesis (22$^{\circ}C$) is similar to that of growth. Respiration quotients of various organs or of whole plant ranged from 1.7 to 3 incrased with high temperature. Respiratory consumption and oxygen limitation seem to be potential factors to induce decay during dehiscence and germination of seeds and root rot in fields. Research on organ differentiation. photosynthesis, respiration and growth with age is needed for the development of cultivation methods.

본 연구에서는 천안시 두정공원을 대상으로 도시공원의 식재유형별 수목의 탄소저장량, 연간 탄소흡수량, 연간 토양호흡량을 측정하여 비교하였다. 두정공원에서 소나무식재림, 상수리나무군락, 상수리나무-아까시나무식재림, 아까시나무식재림을 선정하여 2012년 3월부터 2013년 2월까지 각 식재림을 분석하였다. 탄소저장량과 연간 탄소흡수량은 수목의 흉고직경을 이용한 상대생장식을 활용하여 산정하였고 토양호흡량은 Li-6400을 이용하여 측정하였다. 소나무식재림, 상수리나무군락, 상수리나무-아까시나무식재림, 아까시나무식재림에서의 탄소저장량은 각각 17.36, 88.63, 115.38, $49.88tonCha^{-1}$였고, 연간 탄소흡수량은 각각 1.04, 2.12, 6.47, $3.67tonCha^{-1}yr^{-1}$로 산정되었다. 개체목당 평균 연간 탄소흡수량은 소나무, 상수리나무, 아까시나무에서 각각 1.81, 17.86, $9.14kgC{\cdot}treeyr^{-1}$로 상수리나무가 가장 높았다. 평균 토양호흡량은 각 식재유형별로 2.20, 1.90, 2.47, $2.51{\mu}mo{\ell}CO_2m^{-2}s^{-1}$로 측정되었고 연간 토양호흡량은 각각 6.66, 5.33, 7.20, $7.25tonCha^{-1}yr^{-1}$로 추정되었다. 본 조사지의 식재유형 중 상수리나무-아까시나무식재림이 탄소저장량과 연간 탄소흡수량이 가장 많아 공원의 탄소흡수원 역할에 크게 기여했고, 소나무식재림은 가장 적게 평가되었다. 본 연구결과는 이산화탄소 흡수원의 역할을 하는 도시공원 수목의 식재와 관리에 필요한 자료로 활용될 수 있다.

Effects of elevated $CO_2$ on soil microorganisms are known to be mediated by various interactions with plants, for which such effects are relatively poorly documented. In this review, we summarize and syn­thesize results from studies assessing impacts of elevated $CO_2$ on soil ecosystems, focusing primarily on plants and a variety the of microbial processes. The processes considered include changes in microbial biomass of C and N, microbial number, respiration rates, organic matter decomposition, soil enzyme activities, microbial community composition, and functional groups of bacteria mediating trace gas emission such as methane and nitrous oxide. Elevated $CO_2$ in atmosphere may enhance certain micro­bial processes such as $CH_4$ emission from wetlands due to enhanced carbon supply from plants. How­ever, responses of extracellular enzyme activities and microbial community structure are still controversy, because interferences with other factors such as the types of plants, nutrient availabilitial in soil, soil types, analysis methods, and types of $CO_2$ fumigation systems are not fully understood.

This experiment was carried out to study the effects of light intensity and soil water regimes on the growth of ginseng seedling. The results were as follows: 1. The maximum light intensity and optimum temperature in 1,le photosynthesis of ginseng seedling were 10,000 lux and 23 $^{\circ}C$. Respiration rate was increased at high temperature. 2. Air and soil temperature under the shading were increased as the increase of light intensity but soil water contents were decreased as the increase of light intensity, whereas air and soil temperature were decreased as the increase of precipitation under the shade b5: soil water contents were increased as the increase of precipitation under the shade. 3. The higher the transmittance of the shade, the greater the specific leaf weight (S.L.W.) and stomatal density. In contrast, however, the contents of total chlorophyll, chlorophyll a and b, and stomatal length was decreased. There was no any significant difference light intensity of the a/b ratio of chlorophyll. 4. The highest photosynthesis was occurred in ginseng leaves grown under the shade 5% L.T.R. and net photosynthesis rates increased with increasing soil water contents. 5. Optimum condition for usable seedling yield were 5% L.T.R. and 3.3% precipitation under the shade. Useless seedling increased with increasing precipitation under the shade.
