  • A semi-empirical polarimetric backscattering model for bare soil surfaces is presented. Based on measurements by using polarimetric scatterometers and the JPL AirSAR, as well as the theoretical models, the backscattering coefficints $\sigma$$^0_w$, $\sigma$$^0_{hh}$ and $\sigma$$^0_{vh}$, and the parameters of the copolarized phase-difference probability density function, namely the degree of correlation $\alpha$ and the copolarized-phase-difference $\zeta$, are modeled empirically in terms of the volumetric soil moisture content m$_v$ and the surface roughness parameters $k_s$ and $k_l$, where k=2$\pi$f/c, s is the rms height and l is the correlation length.

  • Spectral characteristics depending on soil constituents and their proportion in a soil were firstly studied for monitoring of soil contamination using hyperspectral remote sensing. The reflectance spectra of heavy metals in soils were investigated in the VIS-NIR-SWIR regions (400-2500 nm) to observe spectral variation as a function of constituents and concentrations. Commercial kaolinite soils mixed with lead, copper, arsenic, and cadmium were used as synthetic soil samples for spectral measurement. In case of copper, relatively spectrally active regions was observed with some band shift whereas other heavy metals had only simple spectral variations expected to be related to the sorption phase and the amount of metal onto kaolinite. The reflectance spectrum of each metal on kaolinite could be identified in VIS-NIR region.

  • Wetlands are lands with a mixture of water, herbaceous or woody vegetation and wet soil. And linear spectral mixture analysis (LSMA) is one of the most often used methods in handling the spectral mixture problem. This study aims to test LSMA is an enhanced routine for classification of wetland land-covers in Paldang reservoir and vicinity (paldang Reservoir) using Landsat TM and ETM+ imagery. In the LSMA process, reference endmembers were driven from scatter-plots of Landsat bands 3, 4 and 5, and a series of endmember models were developed based on green vegetation (GV), soil and water endmembers which are the main indicators of wetlands. To consider phenological characteristics of Paldang Reservoir, a soil endmember was subdivided into bright and dark soil endmembers in spring and a green vegetation (GV) endmember was subdivided into GV tree and GV herbaceous endmembers in fall. We found that LSMA fractions improved the classification accuracy of the wetland land-cover. Four endmember models provided better GV and soil discrimination and the root mean squared (RMS) errors were 0.011 and 0.0039, in spring and fall respectively. Phenologically, a fall image is more appropriate to classify wetland land-cover than spring's. The classification result using 4 endmember fractions of a fall image reached 85.2 and 74.2 percent of the producer's and user's accuracy respectively. This study shows that this routine will be an useful tool for identifying and monitoring the status of wetlands in Paldang Reservoir.

  • Rhizobium and related genera are soil bacteria with great metabolic plasticity. These microorganisms survive in many different environments and are capable of eliciting the formation of nitrogen-fixing nodules on legumes. The successful establishment of symbiosis is precisely regulated and requires a series of signal exchanges between the two partners. Quorum sensing (QS) is a prevalent form of population density-dependent gene regulation. Recently, increasing evidence indicates that rhizobial quorum sensing provides a pervasive regulatory network, which plays a more generalized role in the physiological activity of free-living rhizobia, as well as during symbiosis. Several rhizobia utilize multiple, overlapping quorum sensing systems to regulate diverse properties, including conjugal transfer and copy number control of plasmids, exopolysaccharide biosynthesis, rhizosphere-related functions, and cell growth. Genomic and proteomic analyses have begun to reveal the wide range of functions under quorum-sensing control.

  • 위성 영상을 활용하여 대규모 또는 정밀 토양 수분도를 제작하는 방법의 개발과 이를 적용한 사례 연구는 원격탐사 응용 분야에서 중요한 연구 주제 중 하나이다. 이 연구는 제주도 연구 지역을 대상으로 토양 수분도를 제작하였다. 이를 위하여 선형으로 조정된 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) 편광 영상과 입사각 정보를 이용하여 광학 영상과 함께 토양 수분도를 산출하였다. SAR 영상은 Google Earth Engine (GEE)에서 제공하는 후반 산란 계수 Analysis Ready Data (ARD) 자료를 사용하였다. 또한 Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI)의 토지 피복도(land cover map)와 KOMPSAT-3 고해상도 위성 영상의 지표 반사도로부터 산출한 식생 지수 정보(normalized difference vegetation index, NDVI)를 토양 수분도 처리 과정에 적용하였다. 이처럼 SAR 영상과 광학영상 정보를 융합하여 처리하는 경우는 토양 수분 산출물의 신뢰도를 향상할 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 산출물의 과학적 분석을 위하여 KOMPSAT-3 영상으로 제작한 정규 수분 지수(normalized difference water index, NDWI)와 비교 분석을 실시하였다. 그리고 KOMPSAT-3 처리 결과의 검증을 위하여 Landsat-8 위성의 NDWI 처리 결과와 비교하였다. 이 연구를 통하여 산출한 토양 수분도 결과는 KOMPSAT-3 영상과 Landsat-8 위성으로 각각 처리한 NDWI 처리 결과와 높은 상관도를 나타냈다. 마지막으로 이 연구에 사용한 토양 수분 산출 알고리즘을 우리나라 고해상도 위성인 KOMPSAT-5 영상에 맞게 추가 개발하면 다른 외부 영상 없이 KOMPSAT 광학 위성정보와 KOMPSAT SAR 영상정보를 이용한 정밀 토양 수분도 제작이 가능할 것이라고 생각한다.

  • Because soil compaction is a concern in crop production and environmental pollution, quantification and management of spatial and vertical variability in soil compaction for soil strength) would be a useful aspect of site -specific field management. In this paper, a soil strength profile sensor (SSPS) that could take measurements continuously while traveling across the field was developed and the performance was evaluated through laboratory and field tests. The SSPS obtained data simultaneously at 5 evenly spaced depths up to 50 em using an array of load cells, each of which was interfaced with a soil-cutting tip. Means of soil strength measurements collected in adjacent, parallel transects were not significantly different, confirming the repeatability of soil strength sensing with the SSPS. Maps created with sensor data showed spatial and vertical variability in soil strength. Depth to the restrictive layer was different for different field locations, and only 5 to 16% of the tested field areas were highly compacted.

  • Achievements in the real-time soil spectro-photometer are: an improved soil penetrator to ensure a uniform soil surface under high speed conditions, real-time collecting of underground soil reflectance, getting underground soil color images, use of a RTK-GPS, and all units are arranged for compactness. With the soil spectrophotometer, field experiments were conducted in a 0.5 ha paddy field. With the original reflectance, averaging and multiple scatter correction, Kubelka-Munk (KM) transformation as soil absorption, its 1st and 2nd derivatives were calculated. When the spectra was highly correlated with the soil parameters, stepwise regression analysis was conducted. Results include the best prediction models for moisture, soil organic matter (SOM), nitrate nitrogen (NO$_3$-N), pH and electric conductivity (EC), and soil maps obtained by block kriging analysis.

  • 본 논문에서는 동축선 끝단에서의 마이크로파 반사를 측정하여 수분 함유량을 산출하는 알고리즘을 제시한다. 전파 반사는 공기층과 토양층 사이의 유전율 변화에 의해 발생하므로 반사 계수에서 유전율을 얻는 기술을 연구하였다. 우선, 유전체에 접촉한 동축선 끝단의 등가회로를 선 정하여 미지의 회로 정수를 설정하였다. 다음에, 수분함유량을 알고 있는 토양을 측정하여 미지 회로 정수를 발견하고 반사 계수와 유전율의 관계식을 실험적으로 찾았다. 토양의 유전율은 주파 수, 토양 형태에도 영향을 받지만 주로 수분 함유량에 의해 결정되므로 기존의 실험식을 이용하 여 유전율로부터 수분 함유량을 계산할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 Network Analyzer을 이용하여 4.65 GHz에서 각종 토양의 반사 계수의 크기와 위상을 측정하기를 반복하여 복소수 형태의 유전 율과의 관계식을 산출하였다. 이 실험식은 다른 토양에 이용되어 그 정확도가 검증되었다.

  • The objectives of this study were to estimate leaf area index (LAI) as a function of image-derived vegetation indices, and to compare measured and estimated LAI to the results of crop model simulation. Soil moisture, crop phenology, and LAI data were obtained several times during the 2001 growing season at monitoring sites established in two central Missouri experimental fields, one planted to com (Zea mays L.) and the other planted to soybean (Glycine max L.). Hyper- and multi-spectral images at varying spatial. and spectral resolutions were acquired from both airborne and satellite platforms, and data were extracted to calculate standard vegetative indices (normalized difference vegetative index, NDVI; ratio vegetative index, RVI; and soil-adjusted vegetative index, SAVI). When comparing these three indices, regressions for measured LAI were of similar quality $(r^2$ =0.59 to 0.61 for com; $r^2$ =0.66 to 0.68 for soybean) in this single-year dataset. CERES(Crop Environment Resource Synthesis)-Maize and CROPGRO-Soybean models were calibrated to measured soil moisture and yield data and used to simulate LAI over the growing season. The CERES-Maize model over-predicted LAI at all corn monitoring sites. Simulated LAI from CROPGRO-Soybean was similar to observed and image-estimated LA! for most soybean monitoring sites. These results suggest crop growth model predictions might be improved by incorporating image-estimated LAI. Greater improvements might be expected with com than with soybean.

  • This paper is aimed at analyzing the soil erosion hazard zone in farm land. RUSLE was used for an analysis of soil erosion amount, and for the spatial data of basin, soil erosion amount was calculated by extracting the respect topography space related factors of RUSLE using DEM, Landuse, Soil map as base map. As a result of analysis on the calculated soil erosion amount according to land use type, it was analyzed that the most soil erosion occurred in orchard area, i.e., 40.08ton/ha/yr at average. It was classified into 5 classes depending on the calculated soil erosion amount. of which Class V was decided as soil erosion hazard zone, and for this area, 72.5ha or so, $2.4\%$ of the entire farm land was assessed as erosion hazard zone.
