Potassium is well-known to improve turfgrass tolerance to environmental stresses such as low temperature and drought stress. Low mowing height reduces leaf area of turfgrass that is main place for photosynthesis and carbohydrate production. Closely-mowed turf would suffer from summer decline by low level of carbohydrate resulted from low photosynthesis of reduced leaf area. The objective of the study is to investigate K rate and mowing height for Kentucky bluegrass. The K rate treatments were 5, 10, and $20g\;K_2O\;m^{-2}$ for the low, medium and high K rates, respectively. The bi-weekly mowing treatment was made for treatments. Mowing was implemented at 40 and 100 mm using a rotary mower. Regardless K rates, the high mowing height would be required when the air temperature is higher than $28.5^{\circ}C$ and high turfgrass quality of Kentucky bluegrass is needed. When the air temperature is optimal for cool-season grass, the high mowing height and the low K rate is needed for the root length of Kentucky bluegrass.

Mongolian herders rely significantly on grazing their animals, such as goats, sheep, cattle, horses, yaks, and camels, in broad rangelands throughout the year. The availability of appropriate forage, the amount of hay and forage to be kept, and whether the animals will acquire physical strength from the pasture to make it through the impending cold season are all determined by the meteorological conditions of the year. Herders' principal source of income is animals, therefore preventing mortality is a top priority. In Mongolia, meadows are a major element determining cattle live weight. However, in the summer of 2022, Mongolia faced a drought, which resulted in inadequate pastures and starved cattle. Livestock might lose weight in these situations due to a lack of supplemental feeding.

한국은 양적으로 강수량이 풍부하지만 강우현상이 편중되어 매년 일정기간의 가뭄기를 겪는다. 더구나 그 토양은 대부분 화강암에서 유래한 거친 입자의 것으로서 보수력이 낮다. 수 종의 참나무류와 소나무의 수분스트레스에 대한 반응 결과는 수분수지가 식생의 분포를 결정하는 주 요인임을 보여주었다. 뿐만 아니라 몇몇 상록식물의 월동기간 중 내한성 기작에 기인한 탈수 정도는 자연상태에서 그들의 분포와 밀접하게 관계되었다. 수분스트레스 처리 실험 결과 소나무는 건조에 대해 강한 내성을 보였지만 그 유식물은 가뭄기에 높은 고사율을 나타내었다. 그 고사율은 지소의 토양수분함량에 비례하는 경향이었다. 가뭄이 심한 6월 중 삼림토양의 수분함량과 수분스트레스 처리 실험에서 소나무 유식물이 영구위조점에 도달한 시점에서 배지토양의 수분함량을 비교한 결과는 가뭄기에 소나무 유식물의 높은 고사율이 수분부족에 기인함을 입증하였다. 대기오염물질 폭로실험 중 측정된 시료식물의 수분포텐셜은 시료식물에서 가시피해의 발생과 그 내성에 수분요인이 관계될 가능성을 보여주었다. 야외 현장 조사와 실내실험 결과 둘 다에서 심한 대기오염에 노출된 식물은 그렇지 않은 것과 비교하여 수분소실이 빠르게 일어나는데, 그것은 오염물질에 의한 잎 표면의 손상 정도와 관계되었다. 산성 토양에서 높은 함유량을 보이는 알루미늄은 식물의 뿌리생장을 억 제하거나 비정상적 분포를 가져와 수분스트레스를 유발하였다. 대기오염과 토양 산성화에 기인한 이러한 수분스트레스 효과는 한국의 기후와 토양이 가지는 기존의 수분결핍효과에 덧붙여져 삼림쇠퇴를 유발하는 주 요인으로 작용할 가능성이 있다. 토양의 유기물 함량을 높여 포장용수량 증가에 기여할 수 있는 sludge는 산성토양을 개량하는데 기존의 개량제 못지않은 효과를 보였고, 낙엽 추출물 또한 알루미늄에 의한 수분스트레스 효과를 완화시키는데 기여하였다. 이러한 결과를 종합하여 한국에서 삼림쇠퇴를 유발할 수 있는 스트레스요인들의 잠재적 상호작용을 모식화하였다. 나아가 그것을 완화할 수 있는 복원방안을 토양개량과 식생복원의 측면에서 제시하였다.

Changing patterns and the possibility of climate change in the area of Cheiudo island, the southernmost Island in Korea, were analyzed using daily temperature and Precipitation data observed at the Cheiu Regional Meteorological Office from May 1923 to December 1998. A hydrologic simulation model "BROOK" was used to simulate and analyze the dynamics of daily soil moisture content and soil moisture deficit by applying the daily weather data. During the period, significantly increasing pattern was observed in temperature data of both annual and monthly basis, while no significantly changing pattern was observed in precipitation data. During the last 76 years. mean annual temperature was observed to have risen about 1.4$^{\circ}C$, which may show the Possibility of the initiation of climate change on the island whose validity should be tested in future studies after long-term studies on temperature. Based on the simulation, due to increased temperature, significant increase was predicted in evapotranspiration. while no significant decrease was detected in simulated soil moisture content during the period. Changing pattern of annual soil moisture content was markedly different from those of precipitation. In some dominant trees, negative effects of the drought of the late season for the previous year were shown to be statistically significant to radial growth of the tree for the current year. As annual variation of radial growth of trees is mainly affected by the soil moisture content. the information on the dynamics of soil moisture deficit possibly provides us with useful information for the interpretation of tree growth decline on the mountain. mountain.

The back-filled soil of the New Incheon International Airport construction site was reclaimed with sea sand in near the Young-Jong island. The primary study was carried out from August 1993 to June 1997 to study soil amendment and to select salt resistance turfgrass species. This study dealt with low maintenance area that included most part of open space of airport site. The second experiment, from October 1996 to August 1998, focused on soil amendment and selection of turfgrass species for alongside runway where turf area was maintained. Through two previous studies, propagation methods with zoysiagrass were tested for alongside runway and surrounding areas at 1998. The study of construction methods with zoysiagrass, vegetative propagation showed better results on visual quality and cover rating compare with seeding propagation. However, significant different between vegetative and seeding propagation was not showed on visual quality and drought tolerance after one year of plot establishment. The cover rating by seeding construction methods reached in excess of 70% of limitation suggested by the Incheon International Airport Cooperation. Zoysia net and sprigging net methods were the most suitable where there requires rapid and high rate of ground cover. Seeding propagation should be acceptable to obtain a resonable cover rating where there allows relatively longer period of completion. Therefore, it should be possible to attain a proper rating of ground cover on the site of open space, alongside runway or areas similar to the New Incheon International Airport which is being built on dredged seashore sand. However, the methods of soil amendment, selecting salt tolerance species, and proper construction procedure should be considered at the a time.

This study was conducted to estimate groundwater demand and supply for agricultural activities in a frequent-drought area that requires implementation of optimal distribution plan utilizing the well-network system (WNS). The WNS has been considered as a viable strategic way of supplying groundwater to farmlands by connecting groundwater wells physically or virtually. The study area heavily relied on groundwater resources for irrigation up to 53% due to a lack of surface water resources. Two kinds of methods, HOMWRS software and FAO approach, were used for estimating irrigation water requirements for paddy and upland fields, respectively. During the latest 10 years (2010~2019), the water requirements was estimated to be 1,106 m³/day. The requirements notably increased to 1,121~4,004 m³/day during active farming season (May to September), which exceeded the total yield capacity of pre-existing groundwater wells (2,356 m³/day) in the area. Detailed and definite determination for groundwater demand and supply helped to determine optimal scale parameters of WNS. The WNS has achieved more balanced distribution of groundwater resources for irrigation over the study area.

This study was conducted to determine the characteristics of quality and yield in potatoes grown at paddy field before rice transplantation during the spring season. Three potato cultivars ('Jowon', 'Haryeong', and 'Goun') were grown in Gangneung (asl 5 m) and Seocheon (asl 20 m). In both locations, weather condition belonged to the fourth zone (spring cropping) in potato production location's distribution of Korea. Daily mean soil temperature in both the locations was $0.2-0.6^{\circ}C$ lower than air temperature, while soil moisture was adequate level to potato growth in spite of spring drought. TR ratio was not affected by location, but by cultivar. Specific gravity, starch content, dry matter rate, and yield were significantly influenced by location and by cultivar. There was no difference in total tuber number by location, however there was a large gap in marketable tuber yield according to locations and cultivars. There were high negative relationships between yield and main qualities such as dry matter rate and starch content, while high positive correlation was observed between main qualities. It was possible to produce potato before rice transplanting at drained paddy fields located in representative two locations of potato spring cropping and their characteristics in growth and quality were similar to those generally well known in upland cultivation. Paddy field was thought to be more favorable than upland in terms of available soil moisture supply against spring drought. Further research, however, was needed to increase soil temperature and also preliminary review on proper cultivar according to location seemed to be needed for high yield.

정확히 가뭄을 모의하기 위해서는 수문기상학적 현상을 반영할 수 있는 가뭄지수가 필요하며, 국내에서 수문학적 가뭄을 모의하기 위해 MSWSI (Modified Surface Water Supply Index)를 활용한 여러 연구가 진행되었다. 본 연구에서는 MSWSI의 한계점을 분석하고 MSWSI의 불확실성을 정량화하였다. 우선 MSWSI 인자로서 활용가능한 수문기상인자의 선정에 따른 영향을 분석하였다. 기존 MSWSI에 적용한 하천유량, 지하수위, 강수, 댐유입량의 4개 입력인자별로 하나의 관측소자료만을 이용하였으나 본 연구에서는 중권역별 특성에 맞도록 댐저수위와 댐방류량도 포함하였으며, 여러 관측소의 자료를 취득하여 면적평균자료를 사용하였다. 2001년과 2006년 가뭄사례에 대해 MSWSI 모의검증 결과, 본 연구의 MSWSI가 실측수문기상자료의 경향을 더 잘 반영하여 가뭄을 모의하였으며, MSWSI 인자의 선정이 가뭄모의 정확성에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 다음으로 MSWSI 인자에 적용하는 확률분포의 선정에 따른 영향을 분석하였다. 강수자료는 Gumbel와 GEV 분포, 하천자료는 정규분포와 Gumbel 분포, 댐자료는 2-매개변수 대수정규분포와 Gumbel, 지하수는 3-매개변수 대수정규분포를 따르는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 중권역별로 최대 36개의 MSWSI를 산정하였으며, 확률분포의 선정에 따라 MSWSI 범위가 매우 다르게 나타나 어떠한 확률분포을 적용하느냐에 따라 MSWSI 결과는 매우 달라질 수 있음을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 maximum entropy를 이용하여 MSWSI 입력인자의 선정과 입력인자별 확률분포 선정의 영향에 따른 불확실성을 정량화하였다. 분석결과, 입력인자의 수가 많이 적용될수록 불확실성은 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 홍수기에 MSWSI 입력인자별 확률분포 적용에 따라 MSWSI의 불확실성이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

This study was carried out to investigate the consumptive use of water for red peppers and soy beans. The correlation between the soil moisture contents and the selected meteorological factors during the growing season was analyzed. Characteristics of the drought at Jinju, Yeosu, Gwangju, and Mokpo area were figured out in view of frequency analysis. The results obtained from this study could be used as a reasonable criteria for the estimation of the duty of water in the design of upland irrigation systems. Obtained results are summarized as follows: 1. Red peppers were grown at the three levels of soil moisture contents; 75 percent, 50 percent, and 25 percent, respectively. The red pepper grown at the 75 percent of soil moisture content showed the highest yield. The total evapotranspiration during the growing season from red peppers was 471. lmm, which was 86.6mm less than the pan evaporation. 2. The soy bean grown at 75 percent soil moisture content showed the highest yield, although there was no signicant difference in yields among treatments. The total evapotranspiration during the growing season from the soy bean was 342.8 mm, which was 119.2mm less than the pan evaporation. 3. Coefficients of consumptive use(k) and meteorological data are shown on Table-9. 4. The significant correlations between the evapotranspiration and the humidity and daily temperature range were observed. Results are shown on Table-11.. Evaporanspiration can be easily estimated from the humidity and daily temperature range by using the equation...... (1) Ept=4.808-0.041H+0.207T.......(1) where, Ept; evapotranspiration(mm/day) H ; humidity(%) T ; daily temperature range ($^{\circ}C$) 5. The variations of soil moisture content during the growing season at the soil depth of 5cm, 15cm, and 45cm are shown on Fig. 4~9. The results of the correlation analysis between the evapotranspiration from the crops and the soil moisture content are shown on Table-12. The evapotranspiration can be estimated from soil moisture content at the different depth of the soil by using the equation....... (2). Ept = 3.433 - 0. 364M1 +0. 359M$_2$- 0. 055M$_3$....... (2) where, Ept; evapotranspiration (mm/day) M1 soil moisture meter reading at 5cm depth M$_2$; " 15cm " M$_2$; " 40cm " 6. The estimated probab]e successive dry days in selected areas are shown on Table 13. Gumbel-Chow method was used to calculate the probable successive dry days. Further investigation are required to obtain the more detailed and reliable results.
