Infiltration Rate of Some Upland Soils in Korea

우리나라 밭토양의 수분침투속도(水分浸透速度)에 관하여

The infiltration rates of the upland soils on hill side slope were investigated in situ using rainulator of which rainfall intensity was 100mm/hr. The soil moisture profile after the water infiltration was compared with that calculated from Youngs' equation. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Time required for infiltration rate to reach constant during rainfall was 15 to 25 min. The infiltration rate measured after 30 min was considered to be final infiltration rate. 2. The final infiltration rates of clay soils were lower than 10mm/hr., loamy soils 10 to 20., coarse loamy soils 20 to 30, and sandy soils higher than 30mm/hr., respectively. 3. The saturated hydraulic conductivity of the surface soil of Samgag sandy loam was 0.47mm/min., Songjeong clay loam0.16 mm/min., and Jeonnam silty clay loam 0.14mn/min., respectively. 4. The soil moisture profile calculated from Young's equation was in close agreement with measured in situ.

강우강도가 100mm/hr인 인공강우기(人工降雨器)를 이용(利用)하여 밭토양의 강우침투성(降雨浸透性)을 조사(調査)하고, 침투수(浸透水)의 토양중재분포를 Youngs의 이론식(理論式)에 의(依)하여 추정(推定)한 것과 비교(比較)한 결과(結果)는 다음과 같았다. 1. 토양별 한계강우침투속도(限界降雨浸透速度)는 강우강도 100mm/hr 조건하(條件下)에서 식양토 내지(乃至) 식토(埴土)에서 10mm/hr 이하(以下), 양토에서 10~20mm/hr, 사양토에서 20~30mm/hr, 및 사토(砂土)에서 30mm/hr 이상(以上)으로 나타났으며, 한계강우침투속도(限界降雨浸透速度)에 도달(到達)하는 시간(時間)은 15~20분(分) 이었다. 2. 토양별 표토(表土)의 포화투수계수는 삼각사양토에서 0.47mm/min, 송정식양토에서 0.16mm/min, 그리고 전남미사질식양에서 0.14mm/min로 나타났다. 3. 강우후(降雨後) 토양수분의 재분포상양(再分布相樣)은 Youngs 이론식(理論式)에 의(依)하여 추정(推定)된 것과 거의 비슷한 경향이었다.
