Models estimating carbon budget at land surface are mainly interested in vertical flux of carbon. On the other hand, studies on horizontal flux are obviously lacked to confirm that relationship between the hydrological flux of organic carbon discharged from catchment and terrestrial carbon production, a relation between Total Organic Carbon(TOC) and Gross Primary Production(GPP) tried analysis through cross correlation. The best correlation structure is correlation between GPP and TOC of flow-weighted mean concentration from watershed without delay. Furthermore, cross correlation analysis was performed by consider periodicity. The correlation between TOC and GPP in summer was similar to correlation without periodicity. Therefore, correlation between GPP and TOC was most regulated by the correlation between GPP and TOC at summer. As a result, the vegetation carbon and organic carbon from watershed is recognized a close relationship on the seasonal. Therefore, future research is correlation analyzing between vegetation variables according season, GPP and TOC, we are expected to use quantitative understanding that horizontal flux flow of carbon from the surface.

가뭄이 장기간 지속되어 농업적 가뭄 상태가 되면 토양의 수분이 마르기 시작하면서, 식생의 생장활동이 방해되고, 이는 식생의 광합성 활동까지 영향을 미친다. 광합성을 통해 대기 중의 이산화탄소가 흡수되고 산소 발생이 증가하는데, 광합성이 활발하지 못하면 상대적으로 대기 중의 이산화탄소 농도가 증가한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 토양수분, 식생활동과 대기 중 이산화탄소의 농도의 관계를 다중분광센서인 MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 산출물을 이용하여 분석하였다. 기존 토양수분의 경우, 마이크로파 센서를 통해 산출된 값을 활용했지만, 이는 상대적으로 공간 해상도가 조악하다는 단점을 갖고 있어서 면적이 작은 연구지역을 분석할 때에는 한계점을 갖고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 상대적으로 고해상도인 광학센서를 이용한 토양수분 산정 방법을 적용하였다. 또한, MODIS 총 일차생산량 (Gross Primary Productivity, GPP) 산출물을 이용하여 식생 호흡량과의 관계식을 통해 이산화탄소 플럭스를 계산하였다. 원격탐사 기반의 토양수분, 식생지수, 이산화탄소 플럭스를 한국에서 발생한 가뭄 기간 중, 2014년과 2015년도에 대하여 지점 관측자료인 플럭스 타워에서 제공되는 값과 비교 분석하였다. 분석한 결과 토양수분, 식생 지수, 탄소플럭스는 순차적으로 지연시간을 두고 상관성이 발생함을 확인하였다. 토양수분과 식생 지수 사이에는 1개월, 식생지수와 탄소플럭스는 0.5개월의 지연시간 후에 가장 높은 상관성을 보였다.

기후변화 대응을 위한 탄소 중립의 중요성이 대두되는 요즘, 생태계의 가장 큰 메탄 저장소로서 지구의 탄소 순환에 주요한 영향을 미치는 습지에 대한 이해는 필수적이다. 전지구 지면 모델인 Community Land Model(CLM)에 Functionally Assembled Terrestial Ecosystem Simulator(FATES) 외부 모듈을 함께 구동한 지면 생태계 모델 CLM-FATES는 지면 heterogeneity와 다양한 식생 종류를 고려하여 에너지 플럭스, 토양 수문, 생화학적 과정 등을 모의함으로써 탄소 동태 변화를 포함한 장기적 생태계 동태 변화 모의를 가능하게 한다. 본 연구는 CLM-FATES 모델을 미국 캘리포니아주 Mayberry Wetland (US-Myb)와 Twitchell East End Wetland (US-Tw4)에 적용하였다. 모델의 대기 입력 자료로는 FLUXNET-CH4에서 제공하는 에디 공분산 기반 플럭스 관측 자료를 사용하였다. 기존 CLM-FATES 모델은 토양이 장기간 포화 혹은 침수되어 지표 위 혹은 지표면 가까이 발달한 지하수면을 가지고 있는 습지의 수문학적 특성을 잘 반영하지 못해 정밀한 습지 생태계 동태 변화 모의에 한계를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 CLM-FATES를 통한 보다 정확한 습지 생태계 모의를 위해 모델 내 토양 수문 관련 모듈을 수정하여 모델이 습지의 수문학적 특성을 반영할 수 있도록 하였다. 모델 구동 결과 도출한 잠열, 총일차생산량(Gross Primary Production: GPP)과 순생태계생산량(Net Ecosystem Production, NEP) 플럭스, 메탄 플럭스, 엽면적지수(Leaf Area Index; LAI)와 지표수 높이에 대해 관측값 대비 RMSE 및 R² 값을 계산하여 모의 결과의 적절성을 분석하였다. 이러한 모델 개선 경험을 바탕으로 추후 우리나라 습지 사이트에 모델을 적용하여 습지 탄소 동태 예측에 활용할 계획이다.

Export fluxes of particulate organic carbon were estimated for the first time by using $^{234}Th/^{238}U$ disequilibrium in the southwestern East Sea during August 2007. They were calculated by multiplying POC/$^{234}Th_p$ ratios of sinking particles (larger than 0.7 ${\mu}m$) obtained from 150-200 m water depths to $^{234}Th$ fluxes that were estimated by integrating $^{234}Th/^{238}U$ disequilibrium from surface to 100 m water depth. Export fluxes ranged from 14 to 505 mg C $m^{-2}$ $day^{-1}$, with the highest value at station A2 and the lowest value at station D4. Primary production was well correlated with export flux, indicating that it was a major factor controlling export flux. Export flux in the East Sea was generally higher than those estimated in the open ocean and similar to or somewhat higher than those in the continental marginal seas. Export flux/primary production (EF/PP) ratios varied from 0.29 to 0.62, with an average of 0.43 and were somewhat higher in the basin area than in the coastal area. EF/PP ratio in the East Sea was rather similar to those estimated in the North Sea and Chukchi Sea, but much higher than those in the Labrador Sea, Barents Sea, and Gulf of Lions. Therefore, the East Sea is one of the major areas where a large amount of organic carbon produced in the euphotic zone sinks into the deep layer below 200 m water depth.

지표와 대기 사이의 상호작용에 의해 일어나는 지표층의 물과 에너지, 탄소 등의 순환을 이해하기 위해 이곳에서 교환되는 물질 및 에너지를 관측하는 것이 필요하다. 지표 플럭스를 관측하는 미기상학적 방법에는 경도법, 에디공분산법 등이 있다. 이 중 에디공분산법은 보존 방식을 근간으로 하여 에디 확산성에 대한 가정 없이 플럭스를 구하는 방법이다. 에디공분산법을 이용한 다양한 장/단기 관측이 국내/외에서 수행되고 있으며, 관측자료의 품질검증과 보정을 통한 양질의 자료생산은 관측 시스템의 최적화에 필수적이다. (중략)

Forests are the largest carbon (C) sinks in terrestrial ecosystems. Recently, as enhancing forest C sequestration capacity has been proposed as a basic direction of the Republic of Korea's "2050 Carbon Neutral Strategy," accurate estimation of forest C sequestration has been emphasized. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change guidelines, sequestration quantity is calculated from changes in C stocks in forest C pools, such as biomass, deadwood, litter and soil layer, and harvested wood products. However, in Korea, only the overstory biomass increase is now considered the amount of sequestration quantity, so there can be a significant difference from the actual forest C sequestration. In this study, we quantified forest C exchange through C flux measurement using an eddy covariance system and an automated soil chamber system in a 57-year-old Korean pine plantation located in Mt. Taehwa, Gwangju-si, Gyeonggi-do. Then, the net amount of C sequestration was compared with the amount of the overstory biomass increase. We estimated the annual C stock change in the remaining C pools by comparing the net sequestration amount from the C flux measurement with the overstory biomass increase and C stock change in the litter layer. Therefore, the net C sequestration of the Korean pine plantation estimated from the flux measurement was 5.96 MgC ha^-1, which was about 2.2 times greater than 2.77 MgC ha^-1 of the overstory biomass increase. The annual C stock increase in the litter layer was estimated to be 0.75 MgC ha^-1, resulting in a total annual C stock increase of 2.45 MgC ha^-1 in the remaining C pools. Our results indicate that the domestic forest is a larger C sink than the current methods, implying that more accurate calculations of the C sequestration capacity are necessary to quantify C stock changes in C pools along with the C flux measurement.

Carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) and methane ($CH_4$) were measured in a rice-barley double cropping and rice mono cropping paddy fields, which are located in the southwestern coast of Korea, over a one-year period. Net ecosystems $CO_2$ exchange (NEE) and ecosystem respiration (Re) were estimated by the eddy covariance (EC) method, and an automatic open/close chamber (AOCC) method was used to measure $CH_4$ fluxes. Environmental factors (solar radiation, air temperature, precipitation etc.) were also measured along with fluxes. After the quality control and gap-filling, the observed fluxes were analyzed. As a result, NEE was -603.0 and $-471.5g\;C\;m^{-2}\;yr^{-1}$ in rice-barley double cropping and rice mono cropping paddy field, respectively. $CH_4$ emissions increased during the course of flooded days and were similar in two cropping paddy field. Accoding to rough results considering only fluxes of $CO_2$ and $CH_4$, it was estimated that the carbon absorbation in rice-barley double cropping paddy field was higher than that in rice mono cropping paddy field by $128.9g\;C\;m^{-2}\;yr^{-1}$.

Effect of activators in flux on the printability and wettability of a solder paste was evaluated in this study. The activators in this study were dicarboxylic acids, which were oxalic acid (n = 0), malonic acid (n = 1), succinic acid (n = 2), glutaric acid (n = 3), adipic acid (n = 4), and pimelic acid (n = 5). When the solder pastes were observed with a SMT scope, solder with glutaric acid showed clean and shiny surface when it was melted. Slump ratio of the solder pastes was low when the carbon numbers of the dicarboxylic acid were 1-3. Spreadability was high when the carbon number was over 2. Zero cross time of wetting balance test was under 1 sec when the carbon number was over 3. When activator was oxalic acid or malonic acid, zero cross time was over 1 sec and maximum wetting force was low. Fluxes with the oxalic acid and malonic acid showed decomposition at the temperature close to melting point. Among the dicarboxylic acids, glutaric acid provided excellent slump, spreadability, and wettability.

The monthly inventory of dissolved inorganic carbon (C_T) and its fluxes were simulated using a box-model for the southeastern Yellow Sea, bordering the northern East China Sea. The monthly C_T data was constructed by combining the observed data representing four seasons with the data adopted from the recent publications. A 2-box-model of the surface and deep layers was used, assuming that the annual C_T inventory was at the steady state and its fluctuations due to the advection in the surface box were negligible. Results of the simulation point out that the monthly C_T inventory variation between the surface and deep box was driven primarily by the mixing flux due to the variation of the mixed layer depth, on the scale of -40~35 mol C m^-2 month^-1. The air to sea CO₂ flux was about 2 mol C m^-2 yr^-1 and was lower than 1/100 of the mixing flux. The biological pump flux estimated magnitude, in the range of 4-5 mol C m^-2 yr^-1, is about half the in situ measurement value reported. The C_T inventory of the water column was maximum in April, when mixing by cooling ceases, and decreases slightly throughout the stratified period. Therefore, the total C_T inventory is larger in the stratified period than that of the mixing period. In order to maintain a steady state, 18 mol C m^-2 yr^-1 (= 216 g C m^-2 yr^-1), the difference between the maximum and minimum monthly CT inventory, should be transported out to the East China Sea. Extrapolating this flux over the entire southern Yellow Sea boundary yields 4 × 10⁹ g C yr^-1. Conceptually this flux is equivalent to the proposed continental shelf pump. Since this flux must go through the vast shelf area of the East China Sea before it joins the open Pacific waters the actual contribution as a continental shelf pump would be significantly lower than reported value. Although errors accompanied the simple box model simulation imposed by the paucity of data and assumptions are considerably large, nevertheless it was possible to constrain the relative contribution among the major fluxes and their range that caused the C_T inventory variations, and was able to suggest recommendations for the future studies.

Measurements of net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of $CO_2$ based on the eddy covariance technique provide reasonable carbon balance estimates in response to local environmental conditions. In South Korea, the forest ecosystems cover approximately 64% of the total area, thereby strongly affecting regional carbon balances. Cultivated croplands that cover about 17% of the total area should also be considered when calculating the carbon balance of the country. In this study, our objectives were (a) to quantify the range and seasonal variation of NEE at forest ecosystems, including deciduous, coniferous, and mixed forests, and agricultural ecosystems, including rice paddies and a potato field, in South Korea and (b) to compare NEE at ten Fluxnet sites that have the same or similar ecosystems as found in South Korea. The results showed that the forest and agricultural ecosystems were carbon sinks. In Korea, NEE at the forest ecosystems varied between -31 and $-362gC/m^2/yr$, and NEE at the croplands ranged from -210 to $-248gC/m^2/growing$ season. At the deciduous forest, NEE reached low values in late spring, early summer, and early autumn, while at the coniferous forest, it reached low values in spring, early summer, and mid autumn. The young mixed forest was a much stronger carbon sink than the old-growth deciduous and coniferous forests. During each crop growing season, beet had the lowest NEE value within six crops, followed by wither wheat, maize, rice, potato, and soybean. These results will be useful for designing and applying management strategies for the reduction of $CO_2$ emissions.
