Carbon black has been used as a particulate soil to prepare artificial soiled fabrics for detergent study but it has two major defects. The one is the difficulty of quantitative analysis of carbon black for evaluate the detergency, the other is that there is no reliable correlation between the removal of carbon black and oily soil which is the major component of natural soil. In this study ferric oxinate was used as a particulate soil since it is in black color and can be soiled on fabric by suspension in water or by solution in chloroform and it is easily analysed quantitatively by extracting it from soiled fabric with chloroform to get correct value of soil removal. The characteristics of soil removal of ferric oxinate were compared with that of carbon black and Sudan black, an oil soluble dye, which had been proved that it's detergency correlated with that of oily soil The soil removal of ferric oxinate and Sudan black estimated from quantitative analysis and from K/S value were in good agreement whereas the result calculated by simple reflectance was consistently low. The soil removal of ferric oxinate was exceeded from that of carbon black without regard to surfactants, Triton and Las, but the effect of washing conditions such as temperature and washing time on soil removal of both soils with different suffactants showed no considerable difference. Though the soil removal of Sudan black was little effected by the conditions, the soil removal in Triton exceeded considerably that of in Las, which is the characteristic of oily soil. Thus the soil removal of Sudan black was in good agreement with ferric oxinate in Triton, a non-ionic surfactant, and with carbon black in Las, an artionic surfactant. We concluded that ferric oxinate is a more realistic model particulate soil for artificial soiled cotton fabric washed with non-ionic surfactant than carbon black.

This paper examines an assessment method for terminating the post-closure maintenance of a landfill using a simplified landfill gas model. The case study site is the Sudokwon Landfill in Incheon city, which was closed in 2000. The deviations of the results obtained by the regular model and the simplified model were both slightly over 10% from the measured data. Also, the deviation of the simplified model from the regular model has been less than 5% since 2005. Thus, the simplified model could be applied to other landfills that have been closed for at least 5 years. Additionally, the results of the mass balance analysis using the simplified landfill gas model indicated that 39% of the organic carbon was discharged, leading to organic carbon and organic matter content of 7.2 and 17.6%, respectively, in the landfill by the end of 2018.

Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a critical component of soil health and is crucial in mitigating climate change by sequestering carbon from the atmosphere. Accurate estimation of SOC storage is essential for understanding SOC dynamics and developing effective soil management strategies. This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing the spatial distribution of SOC storage in South Korea, using bulk density (BD) prediction to estimate SOC stock. The study utilized data from 393 soil series collected from various land uses across South Korea established by Korea Rural Development Administration from 1968-1999. The samples were analyzed for soil properties such as soil texture, pH, and BD, and SOC stock was estimated using a predictive model based on BD. The average SOC stock in South Korea at 30 cm topsoil was 49.1 Mg/ha. The study results revealed that soil texture and land use were the most significant factors influencing the spatial distribution of SOC storage in South Korea. Forested areas had significantly higher SOC storage than other land use types. Climate variables such as temperature and precipitation had a relative influence on SOC storage. The findings of this study provide valuable insights into the factors influencing the spatial distribution of SOC storage in South Korea.

Background: This study investigated the variation of soil organic carbon in four land cover types: natural and mixed forest, cultivated land, Eucalyptus plantation and open bush land. The study was conducted in the Birr watershed of the upper Blue Nile ('Abbay') river basin. Methods: The data was subjected to a two-way of ANOVA analysis using the general linear model (GLM) procedures of SAS. Pairwise comparison method was also used to assess the mean difference of the land uses and depth levels depending on soil properties. Total of 148 soil samples were collected from two depth layers: 0-10 and 10-20 cm. Results: The results showed that overall mean soil organic carbon stock was higher under natural and mixed forest land use compared with other land use types and at all depths ($29.62{\pm}1.95Mg\;C\;ha^{-1}$), which was 36.14, 28.36, and 27.63% more than in cultivated land, open bush land, and Eucalyptus plantation, respectively. This could be due to greater inputs of vegetation and reduced decomposition of organic matter. On the other hand, the lowest soil organic carbon stock under cultivated land could be due to reduced inputs of organic matter and frequent tillage which encouraged oxidation of organic matter. Conclusions: Hence, carbon concentrations and stocks under natural and mixed forest and Eucalyptus plantation were higher than other land use types suggesting that two management strategies for improving soil conditions in the watershed: to maintain and preserve the forest in order to maintain carbon storage in the future and to recover abandoned crop land and degraded lands by establishing tree plantations to avoid overharvesting in natural forests.

This paper presents transient response behavior and frequency-dependent ground impedance of a single carbon ground electrode. The ground impedance of the carbon ground electrode was measured as a function of frequency of injected currents and simulated by using the distributed parameter circuit model with due regard to the frequency-dependent soil parameters, and the transient response behavior of the carbon ground electrode against impulse currents were investigated. As a consequence, the frequency-dependent ground impedance of the carbon ground electrode showed the capacitive behavior, that is, the ground impedance decreases with increasing the frequency of injected currents and lowers at the fast front time of impulse current. It was found that the carbon ground electrode is effective in grounding system for lightning protection. The ground impedance simulated with due regard to the frequency-dependent soil parameters was in good agreement with the measured data. The adequacy of the simulation technique and the distributed parameter circuit model for the carbon ground electrode was verified. It is expected that the simulation methodology, which analyzes the frequency-dependent ground impedance of the carbon ground electrode proposed in this work, can be used in the design of a grounding system for protection against lightning.

An in-situ probe-based spectrophotometer has been developed. This system used two spectrometers to measure soil reflectance spectra from 450 nm to 2200 nm. It collects soil electrical conductivity (EC) and insertion force measurements in addition to the optical data. Six fields in Kansas were mapped with the VIS-NIR (visible-near infrared) probe module and sampled for calibration and validation. Results showed that VIS-NIR correlated well with carbon in all six fields, with RPD (the ratio of standard deviation to root mean square error of prediction) of 1.8 or better, RMSE of 0.14 to 0.22%, and $R^2$ of 0.69 to 0.89. From the investigation of carbon variability within the soil profile and by tillage practice, the 0-5 cm depth in a no-till field contained significantly higher levels of carbon than any other locations. Using the selected calibration model with the soil NIR probe data, a soil profile map of estimated carbon was produced, and it was found that estimated carbon values are highly correlated to the lab values. The array of sensors (VIS-NIR, electrical conductivity, insertion force) used in the probe allowed estimating bulk density, and three of the six fields were satisfactory. The VIS-NIR probe also showed the obtained spectra data were well correlated with nitrogen for all fields with RPD scores of 1.84 or better and coefficient of determination ($R^2$) of 0.7 or higher.

계면활성제를 사용하는 토양 세척공정에서 발생하는 세척수에서 계면활성제를 재사용하고자 활성탄 흡착 공정을 적용하였으며 이때 오염물질의 흡착분배를 평가하기 위해 수학적 모델을 적용하여 해석하였다. 오염물질로는 phenanthrene을 계면활성제로는 Triton X-100을 사용하였다. Phenanthrene을 200 mg/kg으로 오염시킨 토양을 10 g/L의 계면활성제 용액으로 세척을 수행하였으며 이 세척액을 대상으로 다양한 농도의 입상 활성탄을 첨가하여 선택적 흡착을 수행하였다. 활성탄의 주입량이 2.5 g/L에서 99.3%의 phenanthrene이 흡착 제거되었으며 이 때 액상에 존재하여 재이용 가능한 계면활성제의 회수율은 88.9%였다. 활성탄 흡착 평형에서 오염물질의 흡착량은 단일 성분 표준모델에서 예상할 수 있는 양보다 훨씬 많은 양이 선택적으로 흡착되었으며 이는 활성탄에 흡착된 계면활성제 미셀에 의한 표면 용해 현상에 의한 것으로 해석할 수 있었다. 이러한 현상으로 인해 흡착 계면활성제의 흡착 효율 인자는 1보다 매우 큰 값을 나타내었고 흡착 몰 당 오염물질 용해 비가 액상 값보다 훨씬 높은 결과를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 활성탄 흡착에 의한 계면활성제 재이용 시 이론적 분배보다 더 우수한 효율로 오염물질의 선택적 분리가 가능함을 제시한다고 할 수 있다.

Climate change is known to affect both natural and managed ecosystems, and will likely impact on the terrestrail carbon balance. This paper reports the effects of climate change on spatial-temporal changes in carbon reductions in South Korea's during 2000-2100. Future carbon (C) stock distributions are simulated for the same period using various spatial data sets including land cover, net primary production(NPP) and leaf area index (LAI) obtained from MODIS(Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer), and climate data from Data Assimilation Office(DAO) and Korea Meteorological Administration(KMA). This study attempts to predict future NPP using multiple linear regression and to model dependence of soil respiration on soil temperature. Plants store large amounts of carbon during the growing periods. During 2030-2100, Carbon accumulation in vegetation was increased to $566{\sim}610gC/m^2$/year owing to climate change. On the other hand, soil respiration is a key ecosystem process that releases carbon from the soil in the form of carbon dioxide. The estimated soil respiration spatially ranged from $49gC/m^2$/year to $231gC/m^2$/year in the year of 2010, and correlating well with the reference value. This results include Spatial-Temporal C reduction variation caused by climate change. Therefore this results is more comprehensive than previous results. The uncertainty in this study is still large, but it can be reduced if a detailed map becomes available.

전 지구적인 기후변화에 따라 산림 및 토양탄소의 역할은 탄소 저장고로서 매우 중요하며, 이들의 동태를 연구하기 위해서는 기존의 현장연구뿐만 아니라 적용 가능한 산림모델 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 산림토양탄 소모델인 Yasso의 주요 입력자료인 과거의 연간 낙엽량 자료를 연륜연대학적 자료구축과정을 통해 생산하고, 위 모델을 이용하여 광릉지역 천연소나무림(Pinus densiflora)의 토양탄소동태를 모의하였다. 연륜연대학적 자료구축과정을 통해 계산된 임분 내 낙엽(침엽, 가지, 줄기, 세근)의 생산량은 1971년부터 2006년까지 지속적으로 증가해왔다. 또한 2006년 낙엽 생산량(침엽, 가지)의 실측값과 추정값을 비교한 결과 유의적인 오차는 없었다. 모의된 30 cm 깊이까지의 토양탄소 저장량의 임분 전체평균은 $46.30{\pm}4.28tCha^{-1}$로 산림의 임목 내 탄소 저장량의 약 53%를 차지했으며, 실측값과 비교하여 유의한 차이 및 오차가 없었다. IPCC A1B 시나리오에 따른 한반도 기후변화추세를 반영한 이 지역의 모의된 토양탄소 추정량은 1971년부터 2041년까지 지속적으로 증가한 후 2100년까지 감소되는 것으로 나타났다. 기후변화를 고려하지 않는 시나리오의 결과와 비교하면 2100년에 이르러 최고 7.58%까지 토양탄소량이 감소될 수 있다. 본 연륜연대학적 자료 구축방법과 Yasso 모델을 이용한 모의과정은 천연소나무림의 토양탄소동태를 추정하는데 유용한 것으로 판단되었다. 향후 더욱 신뢰성 있는 결과를 생산할 수 있도록 연륜연대학적 방법 및 Yasso 모델의 개선과 다양한 환경에서의 적용 및 타당성평가와 같은 후속연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.

Carbon sequestration on soil is one of the counter measurements against climate change in agricultural sector. Increasing incorporation of organic fertilizer would increase soil organic carbon (SOC) but it could bring high potential of nutrient losses which would result in water quality degradation. In this paper, literature review on soil organic carbon behavior according to agricultural management is presented. The results of field experiment to identify the effect of organic and commercial fertilizer applications on SOC and runoff water quality were also presented. Field experiment confirmed increased SOC and nutrient concentrations in runoff water as application rate of organic fertilizer increase. The potential use of simulation model to develop best agricultural management practice considering carbon sequestration and water quality conservation at the same time is discussed and monitoring and modeling strategies are also suggested to achieve the goal.
