This study was conducted to compare the physical and chemical properties of soils in Quercus acutissima, Q. mongolica, Q. serrata, and Q. variabilis stands. A total of 423 plots (Q. acutissima 72 plots, Q. mongolica 150 plots, Q. serrata 97 plots, and Q. variabilis: 104 plots) were examined to determine the soil properties of A and B horizons throughout the country. The physical and chemical properties of soils were significantly different among the four different Quercus spp. stands. The sand content in both horizons was significantly higher in Q. acutissima stands than in the other three oak stands, whereas the clay content was lowest among the four stands. The soils in Q. mongolica and Q. serrata stands were more acidified than those in Q. acutissima and Q. variabilis stands. The concentrations of organic carbon and total nitrogen in both soil depths were significantly higher in Q. mongolica stands than in Q. serrata, Q. variabilis, and Q. acutissima stands. The content of available phosphorus was significantly higher in Q. mongolica and Q. serrata stands than in Q. acutissima and Q. variabilis stands; whereas the contents of exchangeable potassium, calcium, and magnesium were lower in Q. mongolica and Q. serrata stands than in Q. acutissima and Q. variabilis stands. The cation exchange capacity was highest in Q. mongolica stands, followed by that in Q. serrata, Q. variabilis, and Q. acutissima stands. These data indicate the need to design a nutrient management plan to enhance the low soil pH and exchangeable cation in Q. mongolica and Q. serrata stands.

효과적인 국내 충적층 지하수의 이용을 위해서는, 충적 대수층의 내부 구조를 정밀하게 평가하여야 한다. 특히, 강변여과, 인공 침투지 등의 적극적인 충적 대수층의 활용을 위해서는 충적 대수층의 퇴적 환경에 대한 이해가 요구된다. 국내 충적층의 대부분은 하천 둔치 주변에서 하도의 수평 이동에 의해 형성된 경사 지층으로, 니질 박층이 협재하므로 내부의 분균일성에 의해 인접한 취수 공간에도 지하수체의 이동 특성 및 화학적 특성이 달라질 수 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 불균질성을 박히기 위해 지하투과레이다(GPR)를 이용하여 부여 군수리 지역의 천부 충적층에 대한 퇴적학적 분석을 시도하였다. 군수리 지역은 크게 상하 두 개의 충적층으로 구분되며, 상부 수평층은 범람에 의해 형성된 것으로 수직 불균질성이 크고 수평 불균질성은 낮다. 하부 경사층은 수평, 수직 불균질성이 모두 크다. 특히 하부 경사층내에 발달한 하도곡은 인접한 충적층과 분리되어 이 층내의 지하수체 이동은 제한적일 것이고 수질 특성 또한 크게 다를 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구는 충적 대수층에 대한 물리 화학적 특성의 정확한 해석을 위해서 퇴적학적 해석이 선행되어야 함을 시사한다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of soil types and soil properties on wood preservative leaching. Radiata pine (Pinus radiata Don.) sapwood stakes, which had been treated with 2.0%(w/v) CCA, were leached for 12 weeks by a common laboratory method in four different soils and for 14 days by the AWPA standard leaching method in water. The physical and chemical properties of the four soils were determined, and the percent leaching of the individual component of CCA was correlated with the various soil properties. The data show that leaching of preservative chemicals from treated wood exposed to soil is influenced by the type of soil. The preservative leaching was greater when wood was exposed to water than when the wood was in contact with water-saturated soil. The greatest chromium, copper and arsenic leaching from CCA-treated stakes were observed in the sandy loam, loam, and sand, respectively, and the least amount of leaching of CCA components occurred in the silty loam. The leaching of preservative components from treated wood is extremely complex and appears to be influenced differently by the soil properties. The extent of copper leaching from CCA treated wood appears to be related to exchangeable Mg and sum of bases. There is a reasonably good relationship between chromium leaching and exchangeable Mg, and between arsenic leaching and exchangeable K, soil Ni, Mn, Fe, Cr, or Cu content. Since this study was conducted based on laboratory leaching method using small cross-sectional dimensions; thus, data obtained from this experiment should not be used to predict leaching characteristics from commercial-size wood used in real situation. Accordingly, further studies are necessary using outdoor ground-contact leaching.

부산 동래지역 지열수에 대한 지화학적 진화과정을 밝히기 위하여 지열수, 지하수 및 해수에 대한 수리화학 특성과 이들의 연관성을 고찰하였다. 또한 심부환경에서의 지화학 특성을 규명하기 위하여 각종 이온지질온도계와 다성분 지질온도계를 적용하였으며, 동위원소특성과 함께 지화학 모델링을 통하여 심부환경에서의 온천수의 지화학특성을 밝히고자 하였다. 동래 지열수의 수리화학적 특성은 해수의 영향을 받아 높은 이온함량을 보이며 Na-Cl형을 보여준다. 지열수는 주변 지하수와의 크게 혼합된 양상을 나타낸다. 지화학 모델링에 따르면 지열수는 심부에서 약 5% 영향을 받은 것으로 추정된다. 즉, 심부로 순환하는 지열수가 해수와 혼합되며, 이들이 지열에 의해 가열되면서 광물의 용해 및 침전, 이온 교환반응 등 물-암석 반응을 거치면서 심부지열수를 형성하였으며, 지열수가 천부환경으로 상승하는 과정에서 동래지역 주변 천부지하수와 다양하게 혼합되면서 현재 동래온천수의 화학조성을 갖는 온천수를 형성하는 것으로 지열수의 진화 과정을 설명할 수 있다.

This study was conducted to assess the geochemical contamination degree of As, Cd, Cu, Pb, Sb, and Zn in the soil and water samples from an abandoned gold mine. Enrichment Factor (EF), Geoaccumulation Index (Igeo), and Pollution Load Index (PLI) were carried out to assess the geochemical contamination degree of the soil samples. Variations of sulfate and heavy metals concentration in water samples were determined to identify the geochemical distribution with respect to the distance from the mine tailing dam. Geochemical pollution indices indicated significant contaminated with As, Cd, Pb, and Zn in the soil samples that areas close to the mine tailing dam, while, Sb showed similar indices in all soil samples. These results indicated that the As, Cd, Pb, and Zn dispersion has occurred via anthropogenic sources, such as mining activities. In terms of water samples, anomalies in the concentrations of As, Cd, Zn, and SO₄^2- was determined at specific area, in addition, the concentrations of the elements gradually decreased with distance. This result implies the heavy metals distribution in water has carried out by the weathering of sulfide minerals in the mine tailing and soil. The study area has been conducted the remediation of contaminated soil in the past, however, the geochemical dispersion of heavy metals was supposed to be occurred from the potential contamination source. Therefore, continuous monitoring of the soil and water is necessary after the completion of remediation.

Overall objective of this study was to evaluate the electrochemical characteristics of fine soils during the electrokinetic(EK) remediation. Zeta potential of kaolinite as a function of solution pH and surfactant concentration was investigated to make a relationship with electroosmotic flow direction and rate. During the EK experiments, pH of pore solution, electroosmotic permeability($k_e$), electric conductivity($\delta_e$) and voltage distribution was measured, respectively, The point of zero charge(PZC) of kaolinite was estimated to be about 4.2 and the zeta potential of kaolinite above PZC was more negative as solution pH increased. Sorption of surfactants on the kaolinite altered the zeta potential of kaolinite. resulting from the variation of electrochemical characteristics of kaolinite surface. hs the EK experiment progressed, low pH was predominant over most of the kaolinite specimen and thus resulted in very low mass and charge flow. The $k_e$ and $\delta_e$ was also affected by the variation of voltage drop across the EK column with time. Results from this study implied that zeta potential of kaolinite affected by the pH variation of pore solution and voltage distribution in soil column played important role in the determination of mass and charge flow during EK process. It was also suggested that pH adjustment or addition of suitable sorbates could alter the electrochemical characteristics of soil surface and thus maintain high mass and charge flow rate with time.

On the basis of chemical composition of granite, gneiss and their weathering products, in this paper, rare earth elements (REEs) was estimated as tracer for clarifying a geochemical variance of earth surface material during weathering process. The chemical composition of clay, clay ware and pottery also were measured for testifying usefulness of REE geochemistry in clarifying the source material of pottery. It was observed that there was no systematic variation of chemical composition among source rock, weathered rock and soil during weathering process. The chemical composition of clay, clay ware and pottery also did not show systematic variation by baking pottery. However, PAAS (Post Archean Australian Shale)-normalized REE patterns of rock-weathered rock-soil and clay-clay ware-pottery are similar regardless of weathering process or ceramic art. Our results confirm that REE geochemistry is powerful tool for clarifying the source materials of surface sediment or archaeological ceramic products.

This study was carried out to estimate the effect of forest fire on herb layer development and chemical properties of soil. The forest fire was in April 2000 in Pinus rigida(softwood) and Robinia pseudoacacia(hardwood) dominant forests at Gaejoksan, Daejeon. Vegetation studies were in the two communities and herb layer development study was in July using dominance of Dierssen. The coverage of herb layer was higher in the burned area than in the unburned area in the two study communities. There was no different herb layer species number between the burned and unburned areas, but there was different herb layer species number between the two communities. Soil samples were collected at 0～10cm and 10～20cm soil depths from the unburned and burned sites after 3 days and 8 months of forest fire. There was no forest floor in burned site, but unburned site has the forest floor of 1.5cm thick. There were no significant differences in soil organic matter, total N, available P, exchangeable K, Ca, Na, and Mg, and CEC, pH in all soil depth, between unburned and burned sites after 3 days of forest fire and between burned site after 3 days and 8 months of forest fire, except in organic matter in 10～20cm soil depth in hardwood sites and in exchangeable Ca in the 10～20cm soil depth, and in Mg in the two soil depths in hardwood sites. It seems to be that forest fire had not changed the chemical soil properties in this study.

본 연구는 남한강 상류의 소지류인 쌍천 유역에 발달한 하성단구의 퇴적물을 모재로 발달한 토양 특성을 조사.분석하였다. 중위 단구의 A1층은 갈색(10YR 4/3)의 미사질토양이고 발달도가 낮은 입상구조이며 B1층은 황갈색(10YR 5/8)의 사질식양토로 아각괴상구조이다. 고위단구의 A1층은 옅은 적갈색(5YR 4/3)의 미사질양토 내지 황갈색(10YR 5/8)의 미사질식토로 발달도가 낮은 아각괴상구조이다. B1층은 적색(2.5YR 3/6)의 사질식토 내지 밝은 적갈색(2.5YR 4/6)의 식양토로 발달도가 양호한 아각괴상구조이다. 고위단구 퇴적층을 모재로 발달한 토양의 구조는 중정도의아각괴상구조이고 조직이 치밀하다. 토양은 A1층, B1층,B2층으로 되어 있으며 또한 B층은 점토가 집적되어 있고 점토 피막이 나타난다. 쌍천의 중위단구상에 발달한 토양은 황갈색토이고 고위 단구상의 토양은 적색토이다. 고위단구 퇴적물을 모재로 발달한 본 적색토는 생성시가가 민델-리스 간빙기의 이전에 생성된 것으로 현재보다 온난한 생물-기후 조건하에서 탈규산화를 동반하는 적색토화작용에 의해 형성된 것으로 추정된다. 고위단구에 발달한 적색토는 토양단면의 형태적 및 물리 화학적인 특성등으로 보아 고적색토로 분류된다.
