A closed chamber system was used for measuring $N_2$0 fluxes from an agriculturally managed upland soil in Kunsan during the growing season from May to July 2002. It is known that soil is one dominant source of atmospheric $N_2$O, contributing to about 57% (9 Tg y $^{-1}$ ) of the total annual global emission. Hence, its increasing emissions and concentrations are largely associated with agricultural activities. In order to elucidate characteristics of soil nitrogen emissions from intensively managed agricultural soils and to understand the roles of soil parameters (soil moisture, soil pH, soil temperature, and soil nitrogen) in the gas emission, $N_2$O soil emissions were measured at every hour during the experimental period (21 days). Soil $N_2$O fluxes were calculated based on changes of $N_2$O concentrations measured inside a closed chamber at every hour. The analysis of $N_2$O was made by using a Gas Chromatography (equipped with Electron Capture Detector). Soil parameters at sampling plots were also analyzed. Monthly averaged $N_2$O fluxes during May, June, and July were 0.14, 0.05, and 0.13 mg-$N_2$O m$^{-2}$ h$^{-1}$ , respectively. Soil temperature and soil pH did not significantly vary over the experimental period; soil temperatures ranged from 12∼$25^{\circ}C$, and soil pH ranged 4.56∼4.75. However, soil moisture varied significantly from 32% to 56% in WFPS. Relationships between soil parameters and $N_2$O fluxes exhibited positive linear relationships. Strong positive correlation ($R^2$ = 0.57, P< 0.0001) was found between $N_2$O flux and sil moisture. It suggests that soil moisture has affected strongly soil $N_2$O emissions during the experimental periods, while other parameters have remained relatively at constant levels. $N_2$O flux from agricultural soils was significant and should be taken account for the national emission inventory.

During the growing season from June to August, 2000, the soil NO and $N_2$O fluxes were measured to elucidate characteristics of soil nitrogen emissions from different types of intensively managed agricultural soils at outskirts of Kunsan City, located in the western inland of Korea, Flux measurements were made using a closed chamber technique at two different agricultural fields; one was made from upland field, and the other from rice paddy field. The flux data from upland field were collected for both the green onion and soybean field. Concentrations of NO and $N_2$O inside a flux chamber ar 15 minute sampling interval were measured to determine their soil emissions. Either polyethylene syringes of teflon air bags were used for gas samples of $N_2$O and NO. The analysis of NO and $N_2$O was made using a chemiluminesence NO analyzer and GC-ECD, respectively no later than few hours after sample collection at laboratory. The gas fluxes were varied more than one standard deviation around their means. Relatively high soil gas emissions occurred in the aftermoon for both NO and $N_2$O. A sub-peak for $N_2$O emission was observed in the morning period, but not in the case of NO. NO emissions from rice paddy field were much less than those from upland site. It seems that water layer over the rice paddy field prevents gases from escaping from the soil surface covered with were during the irrigation and acts as a sink of these gases. The NO fluxes resulted from these field experiments were compared to those from grass soil and they were found to be much higher. Diurnal and daily variations of NO and $N_2$O emission were discussed and correlated with the effects of nitrogen fertilizer application on the increase of the level of soil nitrogen availability.

논포장에서 배출되는 메탄가스를 측정하기 위하여 간이폐쇄정태 chamber법을 이용하여 대표적인 시료를 채취할 수 있도록 chamber내 시료채취 높이, 시료채취시 시간간격, 하루중 시료 채취시간을 검토하였다. 1. 대표적인 시료채취를 위한 chamber내 높이는 65cm이었고 chamber 하반부에서 시료가 균일하게 섞이도록 DC fan을 추가로 설치할 필요성이 인정되었다. 2. 시간경과에 따른 chamber내 메탄농도의 변화 및 기온의 변화에서 보면 시료채취를 개시하여 30분이내에 시료를 채취하는 것이 바람직하였다. DC fan으로 chamber내부의 공기가 섞이도록 하는 것은 대표적인 시료를 얻기 위한 것 뿐 아니라 chamber내열평형을 이루어 시료(試料) 채취기간중(採取期間中) 식물(植物)의 생리적(生理的) 활성(活性)에 최소한(最小限)의 변화를 주는 방법으로 판단되었다. 3. 하루중 대표적인 메탄 배출량을 나타내는 오전 9시~12시에 시료를 채취하여 분석하되 부득이한 경우에는 또 하나의 평균적인 배출량을 나타내는 오후 6시~8시의 시료를 채취하여 분석하여도 가능할 것으로 판단되었다. 4. 수도주간(水稻株間)진 토양(土壤)에서 메탄 배출을 측정하는데 사용하는 소형의 chamber는 토양을 교란할 수 있으므로 설치한 후 최소한 6시간이 경과되어야 chamber내 메탄농도가 주위의 메탄 농도로 회복되었다.

The study of germination and seedling growth characteristics of Neem under different soil and environment conditions was undertaken. The seed germination started 8 days after sowing in commercial bed soil, whereas, delayed germination was observed in sandy-loam (15 days) and sandy (19 days) soil. The highest germination (73.33%) was observed in commercial bed soil in green house, whereas, the lowest germination was observed in sandy soil (16.67%) and sandy-loam soil (8.33%). The seeds in the open field (sandy soil) also showed poor (10%) germination. The mean number of germination seed/day (GD) and seed germination vigor rate (GV) both were highest in the commercial bed soil with 0.733% and 16.67% respectively in the green house, whereas sandy and sandy-loam soil in green house and open field (sandy soil) all showed much lower GD and GV values. The seedling characteristics of nursery revealed that the seedling grown in the growth chamber in commercial bed soil was significantly higher in all the parameters comparing to others grown in green house and open field. The growth was nearly 7 fold in the chamber compared to that of the green house nursery observed in three months old seedlings. Likewise, HPLC analysis revealed that the green house grown seedling contain higher quantity of pigments compare to the chamber grown seedlings. Among the soils used the commercial soil alone or in combination with sandy and sandy-loam soil in the ratio of 2:1:1 respectively with the temperature of $27{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ showed better for Neem nursery preparation.

The soil NO flux measurements in Korea were made from 17 May 1997 to 16 June 1997 on grass land at Kunsan National University in southwestern Korea by using flow-through chamber technique. The experiment was conducted in an effort to determine the role of natural emissions of NO on rural atmospheric photochemistry, and to understand the soil NO emission mechanism with respect to soil parameters. Soil NO fluxes were measured every minutes and averaged in every 15 minutes as well as soil temperature. Soil samples were analyzed for $NO_3^-, NH_4^+$, and moisture in soil. Soil nitrate was not detected in most times, and total N-containing was limited in site soils. There was a optimum range of soil moisture and temperature for soil NO flux. The overall average of soil NO emission rates were found to be 1.30 $\pm 0.92 ngNm^{-2}s^{-1}$ (n=1219), and ranged from 0.01 ngNm^{-2}s^{-1}$ to 5.62 ngNm^{-2}s^{-1}$. Diurnal variation of soil NO emission was typical, which was in higher level during daytime, and was in lower level over the night. NO flux showed a strong soil temperature dependence $(r^2=0.78)$, but not with soil moisture and soil N-containing during this experimental period; NO fluxes increased exponentially as soil temperature increased. In order to assure the relevant relationship between soil NO flux and the soil parameters, long-term soil flux measurement on different types of land use should be planned and conducted continuously.

This study investigated how the combined changes in environmental conditions and nitrogen (N) deposition influence the mineralization processes and carbon (C) dynamics of wetland soil. For this objective, we conducted a growth chamber experiment to examine the effects of combined changes in environmental conditions and N deposition on the anaerobic decomposition of organic carbon and the emission of greenhouse gases from wetland soil. A chamber with elevated $CO_2$ and temperature showed almost twice the reduction of total decomposition rate compared to the chamber with ambient atmospheric conditions. In addition, $CO_2$ fluxes decreased during the incubation under the conditions of ambient $CO_2$ and temperature. The decrease in anaerobic microbial metabolism resulted from the presence of vegetation, which influences the litter quality of soils. This can be supported by the increase in C/N ratio over the experimental duration. Principle component analysis results demonstrated the opposite locations of loadings for the cases at the initial time and after three months of incubation, which indicates a reduction in the decomposition rate and an increasing C/N ratio during the incubation. From the distribution between the decomposition rate and gas fluxes, we concluded that anaerobic decomposition rates do not have a significantly positive relationship with the fluxes of greenhouse gas emissions from the soil.

본 연구는 토양호흡 측정방법을 소개하고 국내에서 관측된 토양호흡 자료를 고찰하고, 토양호흡 관측 자료 비교시 발생하는 문제점을 정리하였다. 토양호흡측정 방법은 측정원리에 따라 알칼리흡습법, 밀폐상법, 밀폐상역학법, 통기법으로 분류된다. 국내 토양호흡연구를 종합분석한 결과, 국내의 생태계에 적용 된 토양 호흡 측정 방법은 밀폐상역학법(62%), 알칼리흡습법(17%), 통기법(13%), 밀폐상법(8%)이 이용되었고 이러한 방법에 사용된 기기로는 LI-6400-09, EGM-3, EGM-4, 자동토양호흡측정기 등이 있다. 또한, 국내 토양호흡은 대부분 산림 생태계에 국한되어 관측이 이루어졌으며 관측된 평균 토양호흡은 130~900mg $CO_2\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$ 범위였다. 그러나 국내 토양호흡 관측이 산발적 불연속적으로 이루어져 축적된 자료가 매우 빈약한 실정이며, 토양호흡의 상호 비교 및 정량화를 위해 측정방법간의 비교 및 오차에 대한 검증된 연구가 없어 관측된 토양호흡값의 상호비교가 어려운 실정이다. 이로 인해 한반도 생태계의 탄소수지의 정확한 예측자료를 생산하기 위한 기초 자료로서의 가치를 저하시키고 있다. 한반도 탄소순환 메커니즘의 이해를 위해서는 보다 다양한 생태계의 토양호흡 관측이 시급히 이루어져야하며 토양호흡을 조절하는 환경요인과 상호작용에 관한 연구, 다양한 기상 조건을 포함하는 토양호흡 연구가 절실히 요구된다. 더불어 토양호흡의 발생원 별 구분에 대한 국내의 연구결과는 대단히 미약한 수준으로 토양호흡의 메카니즘이해와 정확한 탄소수지이해를 위해 발생원 별 토양호흡량 정량에 대한 연구가 이루어져야한다.

The performance of chamber and bag digesters for solid state anaerobic digestion (SS-AD) of separated solid fraction of swine manure was investigated using lab-scale digester (4,460 mL total volume and 1,800 mL of effective volume) operating at $37^{\circ}C$ for 63 days. The performance of two different digester types was evaluated in terms of the kinetic constants of methane production obtained from the Gompertz and Gaussian equations. Methane production potential of chamber and bag digester was 202 and $218N{\cdot}mL$ $CH_4/g$ VS. Time to produce 95% methane production potential (T95) and calculated effective anaerobic digestion time were 55.5 days and 41.8 days for chamber digester and 52.8 days and 43.5 days for bag digester, respectively. Our results reveal that the performance was not significantly different between chamber and bag digester.

A closed flux chamber system was used for measuring major greenhouse gas (GHG) emission from tideland and/or wetland soils in estuarine area at Saemankum, Kunsan in southwestern Korea during from months of February to June 2006. Hourly averaged GHG soil emissions were measured two to three times a day during the ebb tide hours only. Site soils were analyzed for soil parameters (temperature, pH, total organic contents, N and C contents in soil) in the laboratory. Soil GHG fluxes were calculated based on the GHG concentration rate of change measured inside a closed chamber The analysis of GHG was conducted by using a Gas Chromatography (equipped with ECD/FID) at laboratory. Changes of daily, monthly GHGs' fluxes were examined. The relationships between the GHG emissions and soil chemical contents were also scrutinized with respect to gas production and consumption mechanism in the soil. Soil pH was pH $7.47{\pm}0.49$ in average over the experimental period. Organic matter contents in sample soil was $6.64{\pm}4.98\;g/kg$, and it shows relatively lower contents than those in agricultural soils in Kunsan area. Resulting from the soil chemistry data, soil nitrogen contents seem to affect GHG emission from the tidal land surface. The tidal soil was found to be either source or sink for the major GHG during the experimental periods. The annual average of $CH_{4}\;and\;CO_{2}$ fluxes were $0.13{\pm}0.86\;mg\;m^{-2}h^{-1}\;and\;5.83{\pm}138.73\;mg\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$, respectively, which will be as a source of these gases. However, $N_{2}O$ emission showed in negative flux, and the value was $-0.02{\pm}0.66\;mg\;m^{-2}h^{-1}$, and it implies tidal land surface act as a sink of $N_{2}O$. Over the experimental period, the absolute values of gas fluxes increased with soil temperature in general. Averages of the ambient gas concentration were $86.8{\pm}6.\;ppm$ in $CO_{2},\;1.63{\pm}0.34\;ppm\;in\;CH_{4},\;and\;0.59{\pm}0.15\;ppm\;in\;N_{2}O$, respectively. Generally, under the presence of gas emission from agricultural soils, decrease of gas emission will be observed as increase in ambient gas concentration. We, however, could not found significant correlation between the ambient concentrations and their emissions over the experimental period. There was no GHG compensation points existed in tide flat soil.

토양 호흡은 주요 육상 생태계의 탄소 순환을 이해하는데 중요한 성분 중 하나이다. 토양 호흡 관측에서 쳄버 방법은 가장 일반적인 방법이다. 다양한 토양 호흡쳄버 방법에 의해 이루어지는 관측 값들을 비교하기 위해서는, 측기의 특성에 따른 오차를 파악하는 것이 필요하다. 이를 위하여 온도 조절이 가능한 식물 환경 조절 시스템에서 네 개의 폐회로 역학 쳄버와 자동 개폐 쳄버를 비교하였다. 식물 환경 조절 시스템의 내부의 이산화탄소 농도의 변동과 토양 수분의 변동으로 어느 정도의 오차가 포함된 결과이지만, 실험을 통해 토양 온도와 이산화탄소 농도의 변화에 따른 대한 네 측기들의 반응 특성과 실내 비교 실험의 계획과 방법에 대한 중요한 교훈을 얻을 수 있었다.
