Many toxic pesticides as aqueous-base sprays are dispensed for protection of food crops from pests into farm fields. When dispensed with conventional nozzles, a large portion of the spray is often lost by airborne drifts of droplets away and lack of deposition onto the plants due to rapid gravitational settling of droplets to the soil beneath. And target deposition efficiencies poorer than 20％ are often encountered in agricultural pesticides. An electrostatic spraying technology offers a very favorable means to increasing pesticides droplets deposition onto biological surfaces of living crops. In this paper a corona type spray nozzle, utilizing a set of corona charging devices and a pulsed droplet-charging voltage applied, has been proposed and tested its potential experimentally. As a result, it exhibits a large current deposition of aqueous pesticide sprays on the sensing target, which, however, promise to be as one of the effective electrostatic spraying nozzle.

The main objective was to develop and assess a dynamic fate and transport model for lead in air, soil, sediment, water and vegetation. Daejeon was chosen as the study area for its relatively high contamination and emission levels. The model was assessed by comparing model predictions with measured concentrations in multi-media and atmospheric deposition flux. Given a lead concentration in air, the model could predict the concentrations in water and soil within a factor of five. Sensitivity analysis indicated that effective compartment volumes, rain intensity, scavenging ratio, run off, and foliar uptake were critical to accurate model prediction. Important implications include that restriction of air emission may be necessary in the future to protect the soil quality objective as the contamination level in soil is predicted to steadily increase at the present emission level and that direct discharge of lead into the water body was insignificant as compared to atmospheric deposition fluxes. The results strongly indicated that atmospheric emission governs the quality of the whole environment. Use of the model developed in this study would provide quantitative and integrated understanding of the cross-media characteristics and assessment of the relationships of the contamination levels among the multi-media environment.

일반적으로 레미콘(ready-mixed concrete(RMC))은 시간이 경과하면 굳게 되므로 드럼내부의 잔류 콘크리트를 세척해야만 한다. 이에 따라 발생하게 되는 레미콘 세척수는 일반 토양에 그대로 방류하게 될 경우 강한 알칼리성분과 중금속에 의한 수질오염으로 생태계에 영향을 미치게 된다. 레미콘 공장에서 세척수로 사용되는 물의 약 10~15%가 토양이나 하천으로 방류되고 있으나 이로 인한 구체적인 토양오염 보고는 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 전국 레미콘공장의 세척수를 채취 분석하고 이를 여러가지 투수성을 가진 토양에 침투시켰을 때 토양에 잔류하는 중금속 성분과 pH성분을 분석하였다. 실험에 사용된 시료는 풍화토와 각각 입경이 다른 모래를 사용하였으며, 일정한 층 두께를 유지하고 24시간 동안 침투시켰다. 세척수는 침전 처리 전(슬러지수)과 침전처리 후(상등수)로 나누어 토양에 침투시켰으며, 슬러지수를 토양에 침투시킨 결과 Cu와 Mn, Fe, Zn이 23~90% 이상 잔류하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 침전 처리를 거친 상등수는 풍화토에서만 Cu와 Mn이 60%이상 잔류하는 것으로 분석되었다.

The groutability depends on the properties of the grout, its injection processes, and on the mechanical properties of the soil formation. During the process of pouring cement-based grouting into a porous medium, a variation with time occurs in the viscosity of grout suspension. In addition the particle filtration phenomenon will limit the expansion of the grouted zone because cement particles are progressively stagnant within the soil matrix. In this paper, a closed-form solution was derived by implementing the mass balance equations and the generalized phenomenological filtration law, which can be used to evaluate the deposition of cement-based grout in the soil matrix. The closed-form solution relevant to a particular spherical flow was modified by a step-wise numerical calculation, considering the variable viscosity caused by a chemical reaction, and the decrease in porosity resulting from grout particle deposition in the soil pores. A series of pilot-scale chamber injection tests was performed to verify that the developed step-wise numerical calculation is able to evaluate the injectable volume of grout and the deposition of grout particles. The results of the chamber injection tests concurred well with that of the step-wise numerical calculation. Based on the filtration phenomenon, a new groutability criterion of cement-based grout in a porous medium was proposed, which might facilitate a new insight in the design of the grouting process.

Atmospheric concentrations of acidic pollutant were measured by the 4 stage filter pak method at Chunchon and by the 3 stage filter pack method at Seoul and Anmyon-do from January to December 1998. The sample was collected for 24 hours on every Wednesday. Concentrations of particulate matters were highest at Anmyon-do. The particulate concentration was much higher during the warm season than other seasons. While the particulate concentration was higher during the warm season, the concentration of gaseous matter was higher in winter. Dry deposition flux was calculated by using reported deposition velocities and concentration of pollutants measured in this study. The dry deposition velocities used in this study for SO$_2$, SO$_{4}^{2}$, HNO$_3$,NO$_{3}^{-}$ and NH$_3$ were 0.29, 0.15, 2.08( 2.13 only for Anmyon-do), 0.20 and 1.00cm/sec, respectively. At Chunchon, annual sulfur flux originated from dry deposition was 384 kg/$textrm{km}^2$, and the flux from wet deposition was 782kg/$textrm{km}^2$. Dry deposition of sulfur was 33% of total sulfur deposition. The annual nitrogen flux originated from dry deposition was 1,892kg/$textrm{km}^2$. And the flux from wet deposition was 1,066kg/$textrm{km}^2$. Dry deposition of nitrogen was 64% of total nitrogen deposition. Dry deposition as well as wet deposition have to be considerd in the study on acidification of environment such as soil or watershed.

기후변화에 의해 집중호우의 빈도 및 강도가 증가하고 지속적인 유역개발에 따른 토지이용의 증가는 토양침식 및 토사유출로 인한 재해 및 환경문제를 야기한다. 현재 광범위하게 사용되고 있는 토양침식량 산정기법은 대부분 대상유역내의 평균 토양침식량을 산출하는 총량적 개념의 경험식이므로 호우기간동안의 침식 및 퇴적의 시 공간적 변화양상을 모의할 수 없다는 한계를 지니고 있다. 따라서 보다 합리적인 유역규모의 강우-유사-유출 메카니즘 해석을 위해서는 기존의 집중형 모의기법을 대체하고 다양한 기상학적/지형학적 정보를 활용할 수 있는 물리적 기반의 분포형 모형이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 사면의 지표 및 지표하 흐름을 고려한 유출모의 모듈과 단위수류력 이론을 기반으로 하는 유사유출 모의모듈을 결합한 분포형 강우-유사-유출 모형을 확장개발하고, 용담댐 상류부의 천천유역에 적용하여 모형의 재현성 평가를 수행하였다. 수문곡선의 모의 결과 모형의 재현성은 우수하였으며, 유사량곡선의 경우 첨두부분에서 과소선정되는 경향이 나타났다. 또한, 지표면 유동거리 및 국부경사에 따른 침식 및 퇴적의 공간분포를 분석한 결과, 침식된 토사는 비교적 경사가 완만한 하천주변에 퇴적되었으며, 강우량과 침식 및 퇴적의 공간분포의 분석결과, 강우량의 증가에 따라 침식량이 증가하였으며, Thiessen망 유역별로 침식 및 퇴적 분포는 상이하게 나타났다.

We described the above-ground plant species composition and measured a range of soil physico-chemical properties and the composition and size of the soil seed bank in the remnant natural vegetations on the flood plains of the Han River within Seoul, South Korea. We used analysis of variance and multivariate analyses to analyse the data and S${\o}$rensen's similarity index to compare the composition of the vegetation and seed banks. The soils were circum-neutral and composed of mainly sand and silt fractions with a very limited clay component; a gradient based on sand/clay proportions was identified. The soil seed banks varied markedly between- and within-sites and had much greater species diversity than the above-ground vegetation. Two of the major dominants in the vegetation (Miscanthus saccariflorus and Phragmites australis) were found at very low densities in the seed bank. The site differences appeared to be correlated with the sand-clay gradient, suggesting that the soil properties differentially affected seed inputs into the soil, or that the processes than controlled sediment deposition during floods was also important in differentially affecting seed deposition. Lastly, there was relatively little similarity between the vegetation, dominated mainly by perennials, and the seed bank which contained a relatively large proportion of annuals and biennials. This result suggests that after disturbance caused by flooding there is the potential for many other species to colonize. This may impinge on the regeneration potential of the sites and cause concern for the future conservation of these important remnants of natural vegetation.
