The major objective of this study was to quantify the effects of substrate depth and substrate composition on the development of sedum etc., in a sloped rooftop (6 : 12 pitch) environment during a 4-year period. The experiment was conducted from 2006 October to 2010 December under several conditions without soil erosion control : two substrate depth (5cm, 10cm), four substrate composition (A5N3C2, A3N3C4, A6C4, G5L3C2: A: artificial lightweight soil, N : natural soil, G : granite decomposed soil, C : leave composite, L : loess), four sloped roof direction ($E40^{\circ}W$, $W40^{\circ}N$, $S40^{\circ}W$, $N40^{\circ}E$). In this experiment 4 sedum etc., were used: Sedum sarmentosum, Sedum kamtschaticum, Sedum rupestre, Sedum telephium, flowering herbs (mixed seed : Taraxacum platycarpum, Lotus corniculatus, Aster yomena, Aster koraiensis), western grasses (mixed seed : Tall fescue, Creeping redfescue, Bermuda grass, Perennial ryegrass). The establishment factor had two levels : succulent shoot establishment (sedum), seeding (flowering herbs, western grasses). 1. Enkamat, as it bring about top soil exfoliation, was unsuitable material for soil erosion control. 2. Sedum species exhibited greater growth at a substrate depth of 10cm relative to 5cm. All flowering herbs and western grasses established only at a substrate depth of 5cm were died. A substrate depth of 5cm was not suited in sloped rooftop greening without maintenance. If additional soil erosion control will be supplemented, a substrate depth of 10cm in sloped rooftop greening without maintenance was considered suitable. 3. For all substrate depth and composition, the most abundant species was Sedum kamtschaticum. The percentage of surviving Sedum kamtschaticum was 73.4% at a substrate depth of 10cm in autumn 2007 one year after the roof vegetation had been established. But the percentage of surviving other sedum were 33.3%~51.9%, therefor mulching for soil erosion control was essential after rooftop establishment in extensive sloped roof greening was proved. To raise the ratio of plant survival, complete establishment of plant root at substrate was considered essential before rooftop establishment. 4. There was a significant interaction between biomass and substrate moisture content. There were also a significant difference of substrate moisture and erosion among substrate composition. The moisture content of A6C4 was highest, the resistance to erosion of A5N3C2 was highest among substrate composition. The biomass of plants were not significantly higher in A5N3C2 and A6C4 relative to A3N3C4 and G5L3C2, For substrate moisture and erosion resistance, A5N3C2 and A6C4 were considered suitable in sloped rooftop greening without maintenance. 5. There were significant difference among roof slope direction on the substrate moisture. Especially, the substrate moisture content of $S40^{\circ}W$ was lower relative to that of $N40^{\circ}E$, that guessed by solar radiation and erosion.

The resistance of soil to the tractive force of flowing water is one of the essential parameters for the stability of the soil when directly exposed to the movement of water such as in rivers and ocean beds. Biopolymers, which are new to sustainable geotechnical engineering practices, are known to enhance the mechanical properties of soil. This study addresses the surface erosion resistance of river-sand treated with several biopolymers that originated from micro-organisms, plants, and dairy products. We used a state-of-the-art erosion function apparatus with P-wave reflection monitoring. Experimental results have shown that biopolymers significantly improve the erosion resistance of soil surfaces. Specifically, the critical shear stress (i.e., the minimum shear stress needed to detach individual soil grains) of biopolymer-treated soils increased by 2 to 500 times. The erodibility coefficient (i.e., the rate of increase in erodibility as the shear stress increases) decreased following biopolymer treatment from 1 × 10-2 to 1 × 10-6 times compared to that of untreated river-sands. The scour prediction calculated using the SRICOS-EFA program has shown that a height of 14 m of an untreated surface is eroded during the ten years flow of the Nakdong River, while biopolymer treatment reduced this height to less than 2.5 m. The result of this study has demonstrated the possibility of cross-linked biopolymers for river-bed stabilization agents.

The objectives of this paper were to simply estimate soil loss levels as caused by wind in reclaimed tidal flat land (RTFL) and the threshold wind velocity in the RTFL. For this experiment, RTFL located at Haenam Bay was selected and a total of 150 soil samples were collected at the Ap horizon from the five soil series. The particle distribution curves, including the limit of the non-erodible particle size (D > 0.84 mm) for each Ap horizon soil, show that the proportions of non-erodible particle sizes that exceeded 0.84 mm were 4.3% (Taehan, TH), 8.9% (Geangpo, GP), 0.5% (Bokchun, BC), 1.6% (Poseung, PS) and 1.4% (Junbook, JB), indicating that the amount of non-erodible soil particles increased with an increase in the sand content. The average monthly, daily and instantaneous wind velocities were higher than the threshold friction velocity (TFV) calculated according to the dynamic velocity (V_d) by Bagnold, while the average monthly wind velocity was lower than those of the TFV suggested by the revised wind erosion equation (RWEQ) and wind erosion prediction system (WEPS). The susceptible proportions of erodible soil particles from the Ap horizon soil samples from each soil series could be significantly influenced by the proportion of sand particles between 0.025 and 0.5 mm (or 0.84 mm) in diameter regardless of the threshold wind velocity. Thus, further investigations are needed to estimate more precisely soil erosion in RTFL, which shows various soil characteristics, as these estimations of soil loss in the five soil series were obtained only when considering wind velocities and soil textures.

고랭지 농업은 표고가 높은 산지의 경사지에서 이루어지고 있고, 비료 및 퇴비 등의 고투입농법에 의존하고 있기 때문에 토양유실 가능성이 상당히 높고 따라서 환경에 악영향을 미칠 가능성이 크다. 이 연구는 식생을 이용한 토양 유실저감효과를 규명하기 위하여 경제성이 있는 산채작물을 재배함으로서 이들의 토양 유실 저감 정도를 평가하였다. 2005년 실험에 따르면 배추포장에 비하여 눈개승마와 참취 포장의 토양 유실량은 1/2로 저감되었으며, 유출량 또한 상대적으로 눈개승마 재배 포장과 침취 재배 포장에서 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 경사도(15%, 30%, 45%)에 따른 토양유실량은 경사도가 증가할수록 증가하였으며, 15% 포장에서 눈개승마의 경우 52.50 kg, 30% 포장에서 눈개승마의 경우 108.33 kg, 45% 포장에서 눈개승마의 경우 171.50 kg로 나타났으며, 배추포장의 경우는 눈개승마 포장에 비해 2~3배 많은 토양 유실량을 보였다.

우리나라 제방 중 내부침식에 의한 붕괴는 약 10% 이상을 차지하고 있다. 내부침식 뿐만 아니라 월류, 제체 불안정 등으로 인한 제방의 붕괴를 사전에 방지하고 최소한의 피해를 위하여 다양한 연구들이 시도되고 있고, 그 중 하나가 바이오폴리머 적용에 관한 연구이다. 바이오폴리머의 적용 분야에는 강도, 식생, 내침식성으로 나뉘며 본 연구에서는 내침식성에 대한 내용을 다룰 것이다. 본 연구의 목적은 모형제방의 다짐도 및 내부침식 유도로에 따른 붕괴양상을 검토하고 적합한 조건을 선정하여 바이오폴리머 혼합토 제방의 효과를 검증하기 위한 실규모 실험 기초자료를 확보하는 것이다. 모형제방의 다짐도를 상, 중, 하로 나누어 각각의 유도로 조건에 따른 침식양상을 검토하여 가장 적합한 실험 조건을 선정하였으며, 바이오폴리머 혼합토 처리 유무에 따른 효과를 확인하였다. 실험결과, 바이오폴리머 혼합토를 적용한 제방에서의 내부침식률이 크게 감소하였으며, 실제 제방에 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 스케일을 축소시킨 모형제방에 바이오폴리머 혼합토를 적용하여 실제 적용 가능한지 여부를 연구하였다. 따라서, 실제 현장적용성 평가를 위해서는 실규모 제방실험이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was initiated to build runoff plots, install soil and water quality monitoring systems and collect background data from the plots and neighboring soils as the 1st year study of a 5 year project to assess soil quality and develop the management practices for environmentally sound agriculture in mountainous soils. Eleven $3{\times}15m$ runoff plots and monitoring systems were installed at a field of National Alpine Agricultural Experiment Station to monitor soil quality and discharge of nonpoint source pollutants. Corn and potato were cultivated under different fertilizer, tillage and residue cover treatments. The soil has a single-layered cluster structure that has a relatively good hydrologic properties and can adsorb a large amount of nutrient. Concentrations of T-N, $NH_4$-N, and $NO_3$-N of surface soil sampled in the winter were relatively high. Runoff quality in the winter and thawing season in the spring was largely dependent on surface freezing, snow accumulation, temperature, surface thawing depth and so on. Runoff during the thawing season caused serious soil erosion but runoff quality during the winter was relatively good. Serious wind erosion from unprotected fields after the fall harvest were obserbed and best management practices to reduce the erosion need to be developed.

Catchments soil erosion, one of the most serious problems in the mountainous environment of the world, consists of a complex phenomenon involving the detachment of individual soil particles from the soil mass and their transport, storage and overland flow of rainfall, and infiltration. Sediment size distribution during erosion processes appear to depend on many factors such as rainfall characteristics, vegetation cover, hydraulic flow, soil properties and slope. This study involved laboratory flume experiments carried out under simulated rainfall in a 3.0 m long ${\times}$ 0.8 m wide ${\times}$ 0.7 m deep flume, set at $17^{\circ}$ slope. Five experimental cases, consisting of twelve experiments using three different sediments with two different rainfall conditions, are reported. The experiments consisted of detailed observations of particle size distribution of the out-flow sediment. Sediment water mixture out-flow hydrograph and sediment mass out-flow rate over time, moisture profiles at different points within the soil domain, and seepage outflow were also reported. Moisture profiles, seepage outflow, and movement of overland flow were clearly found to be controlled by water retention function and hydraulic function of the soil. The difference of grain size distribution of original soil bed and the out-flow sediment was found to be insignificant in the cases of uniform sediment used experiments. However, in the cases of non-uniform sediment used experiments the outflow sediment was found to be coarser than the original soil domain. The results indicated that the sediment transport mechanism is the combination of particle segregation, suspension/saltation and rolling along the travel distance.

본 연구에서는 경사도 20%의 강원도 경작지 실험포장(가로 3 m${\times}$세로 18 m)을 대상으로 자연강우 조건하에서 폴리머 기반 토양개량제인 polyacrylamide (PAM) 및 바이오폴리머의 처리가 토양유실 및 작물의 생장에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 40 kg/ha PAM 및 바이오폴리머 처리시 토양입단 안정도는 대조구에 비해 최대 11% 증가하였다. 생육조사 결과 폴리머 처리에 따라 무(Raphanus sativus)의 엽장은 증가하였으나 수확량의 경우 유의적인 차이를 나타내지는 않았다(P>0.05). 토양유실의 경우 폴리머 기반 토양개량제 처리시 토양유실량이 최대 41% 감소하였으나 유거수량에는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 또한 토양유실량은 강우강도의 증가에 따라 대수관계($R^2=0.85$)로 증가함을 확인하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 피복이 완전치 못한 경사지 경작지에 대한 폴리머 기반 토양개량제 시용은 토양유실 저감에 효과적이며 작물생육 촉진 및 토양질 향상에도 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

기존의 비탈면녹화공법인 식생기반재취부공법은 결합력의 부족이나 건조화, 유기물의 부족 등의 문제점들을 보이고 있다. 특히 비산이 심한 지역의 비탈면은 식생피복율이 현저히 떨어지고 시간이 경과함에 고사율이 증가되어 피복율이 더 저하되고 또다시 침식 및 비산이 증가하는 악순환이 이루어지고 있는 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 침식이나 비산에 저항하기 위해 친환경 토양안정재를 적용하고, 적정 배합비 결정을 위해 장기침수시험과 유수저항시험을 실시하였다. 친환경토양안정재와 기존의 녹화토기반재를 활용한 장기침수시험결과, 토양안정재의 혼합율 0%는 30시간, 2%는 40일 후 100% 붕괴가 발생되었으며, 4% 이상의 혼합비에서는 실험종료시까지 시료의 원형이 그대로 남아 있어 2% 이상의 토양안정재가 극한 조건에서도 형상을 유지하는데 영향을 줄 수 있는 혼합비임을 확인하였다. 또한, 식생기반재의 구조적 안정성을 평가하기 위해 인공강우시험을 40, 45, $55^{\circ}$ 경사비탈면에 대해 실시하였으며, 토양안정재의 혼합비 0, 4, 8%에 대해 유수저항시험을 실시하고 침식저항능력을 평가하였다. 실험결과, 토양안정재의 혼합에 따라 유실률이 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보이는 등 비산을 방지하거나 우수에 의한 침식에 저항하기 위해 적용한 친환경 토양안정재가 큰 유실감소효과를 거둘 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
