Abstract

Soil is the foundation of human life and the basis for food security. Considering this it is prioritized in the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). Therefore, research on soil resilience in the agricultural environment is crucial for sound and sustainable soil management, especially in highly uncertain and unpredictable conditions. Soil resilience is defined in different ways by several researchers; however, its definition typically includes the concepts of recovery and resistance to stress. The physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of soils that are used to assess the soil resilience, i.e., the response of soil to various types of stress are summarized in this study. In addition, various statistical processing techniques and quantification methods are summarized considering the wide spatial and temporal scope of soil resilience research. Several soil resilience studies typically conduct the following five steps: (1) soil and site selection (2) stress (independent variable) setting (3) soil characteristics and indicator (dependent variable) setting (4) performing various spatiotemporal scale experiments (5) statistical analysis. The previous and present studies present a general introduction of soil resilience, based on which, further practical research considering domestic agricultural environment should be conducted. The extensive range of soil resilience measurements will require collaboration between researchers in various fields.

토양은 인간의 삶의 터전이자 식량안보를 책임질 수 있는 근간으로, UN의 지속가능한 개발 목표에서도 중요하게 다루고 있다. 농업환경에서 토양 리질리언스는, 불확실성과 예측불가능성이 높은 시대에 건전하고 지속가능한 토양 관리를 위해 반드시 필요한 연구분야이다. 토양 리질리언스의 정의는 연구자들마다 조금씩 다르나 교란에 대한 회복과 저항 개념을 공통적으로 포함하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 종류의 교란에 대한 토양 리질리언스의 반응을 평가하기 위하여 사용된 토양의 물리적, 화학적, 생물학적 특성들을 정리하였다. 이어서 토양 리질리언스 연구의 시공간적 범위가 넓은 것에 기인한 다양한 통계 처리 기법들과 리질리언스 정량화 방법들을 정리하였다. 또한 많은 토양 리질리언스 연구들은 공통적으로 (1) 토양 및 부지 선정 (2) 스트레스 및 교란 (독립변수) 설정 (3) 토양 특성 및 지표 (종속변수) 설정 (4) 다양한 시공간적 규모 (scale) 실험 수행 (5) 데이터 통계분석 등 5단계에 걸쳐 수행되어왔음을 확인할 수 있었다. 선행 및 이번 연구를 통해 토양 리질리언스의 일반적 개론을 다루었으며, 이를 바탕으로 국내 농업 환경을 고려한 실질적인 연구가 수행되어야 할 것이다.
