This experiment was carried out from 1979 till 1983 to elucidate the underdrainage effect on soil salinity and growth of rice plastic underdrainage was established 5m and 8m intervals in April of 1979 and Jinjubyeo the medium maturing rice variety was transplanted by hand at late of May. The results are as follow; The desalination effect was higher in 5m interval underdrainage than 8m interval underdrainage and the salt content was lower than 0.3％ at 1 year after in 5m interval, 2 years after in 8m interval underdrainage and 3 years after at control. Farther the distance from underdrainage position, less the desalinization rate that desalinization was least at center part of the underdrainage position. Desalinization effect was highest 30cm of soil depth and decreased deeper than it. Shorter the underdrainage interval, more the panicle number, heavier 1, 000 grain weight and higher the milled rice yield. But the milled rice yield wasn't significantly different between the underdrainage interval from 3 years after underdrainage.

Two sample varieties of Yushin and Jinheung were used for the experiment in low-level wetty paddy field which was arranged with PVC pipe underdrainage of 6m in distance and 60cm, 90cm, and 120cm in depth and control, using sprit plot design with three replications. On the yield of brown rice, Yushin was increased by 24.8% in the 90cm plot and Jinheung by 16.7% in the 120cm plot, respectively, over the control. The ratio of matured grains of these two varieties was increased significantly by the underdrainage and the number of grains per head of Yushin was also increased in drained plots. Otherwise, the underdrainage enhanced the plant height in the early growth of rice plant and further increased the culm height and panicle length. It seemed that these results might enhance the light-receiving effciency in the latter growth of rice plant and bring about the effect fo increased yields by the underdrainage.

Objective of this research was to remove the accumulated salts in the plastic film house soils by installing the perforated PVC (${\phi}10cm$) underdrainage pipes at 50 cm depth of soils with cultivating vegetables. Efficiency of the underdrainage pipes was assessed based on the changes of soil chemical properties such as pH, EC, and cations, and growth and yield parameters of the vegetables between the two treatments; the control and the underdrainage pipe treatments. The EC of the underdrainage pipes installed soils after two growing seasons were in the ranges of $1.42-2.88dS\;m^{-1}$ but those of the control were in the ranges of $3.86-4.53dS\;m^{-1}$, indication the underdrainage pipes effectively removed the accumulated salts in soils. The pHs of the control soils and the underdrainage pipe installed soil were in the ranges of 7.2-7.5 and 6.9-7.3, respectively. There was a significant correlation between pH and cation exchange capacity (CEC) of the soils ($CEC=17.107{\times}pH-106.2$, $r^2=0.759$, P < 0.05). The ECs of the soils at different depths were compared between the two treatments after cultivating vegetables with lettuce-lettuce-garland chrysanthemum rotation systems. The ECs of the control soils at depths of 0-10, 10-20, 20-30, 30-40, and 40-50 cm were 3.45, 3.47, 3.03, 2.03, and $2.28dS\;m^{-1}$, respectively, with decreasing with soil depths. On the other hand, the respective ECs of the underdrainage pipes installed soils were 2.43, 2.52, 2.28, 4.00, and $4.23dS\;m^{-1}$ with increasing with soil depths. This might be derived from the salts moved downward with the draining water into the subsoil. The order of cations moved downward was Mg > Ca > K, based on the ratios of cations at specific depth over those at the surface soil. The survival rates of lettuce after 15 days of transplanting in the underdrainage pipe installed soils were 98.2% as compared to 86.6% of the control. The underdrainage pipe treatment also increased the diameter of the lettuce stalk from 12.9mm of the control to 13.7mm. Overall results demonstrated that the installment of the underdrainage pipes in the subsoils of the salt accumulated plastic film house soil effectively removed the salts by leaching downward,resulting in lowering soil EC and enhancing the growth and yield of vegetables.

Objective : Despite rapid evolution of shunt devices, the complication rates remain high. The most common causes are turning from obstruction, infection, and overdrainage into mainly underdrainage. We investigated the incidence of complications in a consecutive series of hydrocephalic patients. Methods : From January 2002 to December 2009, 111 patients underwent ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunting at our hospital. We documented shunt failures and complications according to valve type, primary disease, and number of revisions. Results : Overall shunt survival time was 268 weeks. Mean survival time of gravity-assisted valve (GAV) was 222 weeks versus 286 weeks for other shunts. Survival time of programmable valves (264 weeks) was longer than that of pressure-controlled valves (186 weeks). The most common cause for shunt revision was underdrainage (13 valves). The revision rate due to underdrainage in patients with GAV (7 of 10 patients) was higher than that for other valve types. Of 7 patients requiring revision for GAV underdrainage, 6 patients were bedridden. The overall infection rate was 3.6%, which was lower than reported series. Seven patients demonstrating overdrainage had cranial defects when operations were performed (41%), and overdrainage was improved in 5 patients after cranioplasty. Conclusion : Although none of the differences was statistically significant, some of the observations were especially notable. If a candidate for VP shunting is bedridden, GAV may not be indicated because it could lead to underdrainage. Careful procedure and perioperative management can reduce infection rate. Cranioplasty performed prior to VP shunting may be beneficial.

This paper is concerned with the actual comparison analysis for the freshening process in the two selected experimental reservoirs. At the deep freshening reservoir, the salinity and depth of the freshwater layer were estimated by simulation technique using the quantitative equation for the two-layered flow structures. First of all, it is shown that the effects of underdrainage conduit in the lower layer were reported more effective for the control of upper layer salinity comparing with the case of no underdrainage conduit. Further the results of computation were later compared with the real observed values and the relating parameters of the salt-balance equation are conformed even though approximately. Finally it was represented that the salinity of upper layer is easily diluted not only by the tidal gate but also by the underdrainge conduit in the lower layer of the freshening reservoir.

The result which I tried to get double crops of potatoes on the wet paddy fields through the underdrainage of P V.C pipe from March 1977 to June 1977 in Jung cheon-Ri, Jinseong-men, Jinyang gun, Kungsangnamdo are followings.1. During this experimental period, the temperature on the average was 15.67$^{\circ}C$ (yearly mean 14.78$^{\circ}C$ that was suitable in growing potatoes, while the amount of rainfall was not much heavier from middle of April to early in May. Therefore the yield of potatoes in the wet fields was so high. 2. The soil temperature of the treated plot in the underground of 10cm, 30cm, 60cm, 80cm, has risen to 1.38$^{\circ}C$, 1.32$^{\circ}C$, 1.45$^{\circ}C$, 1.28$^{\circ}C$, comparing to the soil temperature in the control plot respectively. 3. The discharge from subdrainage pipes was 0.6751/sec/ha on the average. 4. The treated plot showed better growth than the control plot, and the yield has been increased 424.8%, while they have been preserved to be voluntary from the level of "t" test.

The area of paddy fields for upland crop cultivation is gradually increasing. In this context, we developed a chain type mole drainer that can be attached to a tractor to prevent the wet injury of crops. To conduct a field test, we formed underdrains at 2 m intervals in a paddy field wherein soybeans are cultivated, and we investigated the status of the soil moisture, groundwater level, and soybean growth during the cultivation period. The soil moisture content decreased by 22.3~26.8% in the test plot and by 5.9~6.9% in the control plot during a period of 57~88 hour after a rainfall of 41.5~157.0 mm. The effect of underdrainage was clear as the hourly groundwater level decreased approximately 2.8 times faster in the test plot compared with the control plot. Moreover, the soybean yield was greater by 78.6 kg/10a in the test plot than in the control plot. Therefore, for soybean cultivation in paddy fields, the use of the developed mole drainer is expected to help in improving the drainage and increasing the soybean yield.
