To identify the soft marine clay of the Daebul reclaimed area, the south western part of Korea, and determine their engineering properties, a series of the laboratory and field tests are conducted. The main findings are summarized from laboratory and field investigations. It is also formulated the basic geotechnical characteristic data for the porject area. The established correlations for the engineering properties are reviewed and their applicabilities are studied.

This paper describes a simple procedure for the quantitative analysis of 7 PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) in soils on the waste reclaimed land, The procedure involved sample clean up using silicagel column, acetonitrile partition and sulfuric acid procedures. The instrumental technique is applied GC/PDD(gas chromatography/pulsed discharge detector) and GC/ECD(gas chromatography/electron capture detector). Concentration of $sub-{\mu}g/g$ level was attainable with 20g soils on the waste reclaimed land.

The purpose of this study is to analysis the grain distribution and compaction characteristics of structural backfill with reclaimed soil. Five(5) reclaimed soil samples which passed #200 sieve have been used in the test. The study showed that the maximum dry density and the bearing value rate turned out to be becoming smaller when the more the quantity passed #200 sieve, the smaller the soil grain. The maximum dry density value calculated from the compaction md relative density test showed wet method > compaction method > dry method. The correlation coefficient between Rc and Dr based on the grain distribution and the compaction characteristics showed that the maximum dry density value by the wet method is little higher than the compaction method and dry method.

The newly designed mole drainage plower which is attached to tractor is tested for work capacity comparing with the pulling by man animal and winch. Besides. the effect of desalinization by the mole drainage in reclaimed tideland was observed. The results as obtained in this experiment are as follows: 1. The mole drainage plower of tractor attachment has higher work capacity by 3 to 5 times than that of winch 2. The suitable soil moisture content to carry out the layout of mole drains is from 21 to 25 percent. 3. The new design mole drainage plower requires th lowest cost as comparing with the other methods. 4. Carrying out the mole drainage in reclaimed tideland it is effective in desalinization from 2 to 3 times than the only use of irrigation water. 5. The reasonable depth and interval of mole drains may be 60cm and 3m respectively. 6. The desalinization by the mole drainage increases the yield of rice from 40 to 45 percent in reclaimed tideland.

The effects of salinity on the growth and production of rice were studied at Seosan reclaimed land from July to October, 1995. The plant height, the number of living aleaves, dead leaves and total leaves, the number of the grains and the dry weight of the grains per individual, and the dry weight of above the ground in $25cm{\times}25cm$ quadrat were investigated on 5 plots whers were different salinity. The plant height, the number of living leaves and total leaves and the number of grains and the dry weight of grains per individual, and the dry weight of above the ground decreased as the salinity of water increase and the number of dead leaves of rice increased as the salinity of water decrease. The effect of salinity on the reproductive production is severer than the vegetative production. Because of the salinity, the growth and the production of the rice at Seosan reclaimed land are worse than the normal rice field.

The survey was carried out over an area representing about 29％ of the reclaimed paddy fields of west and south seashore in Korea. Scirpus maritimus L. was heavily infested all over the reclaimed paddy fields. But the weed was scarcely found in double cropping fields cultivating barley at paddy after rice or in reclaimed paddy fields where the cultivation was taken a long time.

This paper reports the observation of the interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) phase anomaly on a newly reclaimed mudflat, Hwaong, in west coast of Korea, detected by a series of Radarsat-l SAR data obtained mostly during 2003. The observed phase anomaly could be from subsidence of mud land caused by volumetric contraction of mud in dry season. This process must have been initiated from March 2002 when tidal water supply to this region was permanently blocked by the newly constructed embankment. The maximum subsidence rate measured from InSAR signal is about 3 cm per month. The local heterogeneity of the subsidence rate over the reclaimed mudflat may indicate various mud composition, surface-subsurface hydrological processes, or subsurface information of the mud and basement rock structure. In-situ measurement must follow to support this observation from space.

In this study, the effects of reclaimed wastewater irrigation on the concentration of heavy metals such as lead, zinc, cadmium, and copper in soil and vegetables were investigated by monitoring an experimental area irrigated with reclaimed wastewater. Three treatments and three replications on $10{\times}2$-m plots were installed and heavy metal concentrations in soil and vegetables were monitored from 2005 to 2007. The treatments applied in this study were groundwater irrigation (control treatment), wastewater irrigation, and irrigation with filtered reclaimed wastewater treated with ultraviolet light. The monitored results showed that the concentrations of Cu, Cd, and Pb in soil during the experimental period were lower than initial soil levels before irrigation, whereas Zn increased in all treatment plots. However, the ranges of Zn, Cu, Cd and Pb in soil were below the soil pollution standards in the Republic of Korea. Heavy metal concentrations in vegetables showed insignificant variations for all treatments.

Chemical properties of soil in the proposed horticultural complexes of Saemangeun reclaimed tideland were studied for sustainable development of the newly reclaimed land resources. The soil texture of Gwanghwal, Gyehwa, Mangyeong and Okgu complex area were sandy loam. The pH and ESP (exchangeable sodium percentage) were 7.42 to 7.82 and 61.05 to 73.62 %, respectively. Compared to general agricultural land in Korea, the soil organic matter and other plant nutrients were low. The concentrations of heavy metals in the soil were found to be acceptable except several sites where they doesn't meet the warning standard of agricultural land contamination. Continuous monitoring and interception of external pollutants are suggested for water-soil-plant system conservation.
