To analyze soil properties of unsaturated zone, we applied electrical resistivity tomography(ERT) of high resolution image. From linear relationship with each soil texture between results of ERT and soil properties such as electrical conductivity of pore water, water contents and ionic contents, we could be analyzed the result of ERT more effectively. Consequently, ERT can be useful for estimating soil properties between the two holes and evaluating indirectly pH and organic contents of soil.

Chemical characteristics and their interrelationships of 156 soils included by 74 sandy loam and 82 loam soils collected from plastic film house in Chungbuk area were investigated from 1998 to 2001. Seventeen chemical properties including pH, organic matter (OM), electrical conductivity (EC), inorganic nitrogen, available phosphorus, exchangeable cations, CEC, etc., were analyzed by correlation, standardized partial regression coefficient, and principal factor analysis. Standardized partial regression coefficients of chemical properties were estimated to determine the degree of contribution of EC and OM contents in soils. Principal factor analysis was applied to classify the studied chemical properties into different groups having similar chemical properties. The pH of experimental soils ranged from 4.24 to 7.14 and 4.95 to 7.35 for loam and sandy loam soils, respectively. The EC of soils varied from 0.93 to $15.65dS\;m^{-1}$ for loam and $0.91{\sim}22.30dS\;m^{-1}$ for sandy loam soils, respectively with significant differences among them. The EC measured by 1:5 $H_2O$ dilution method and saturation method were significantly related with 8.163 and 8.599 as the slopes of regression equation for loam and sandy loam soils, respectively. These slopes more than 8.0 in this regression equation was higher than the slope of 5.0 that is estimated from dilution coefficient suggesting that EC measured by 1:5 dilution method might be erratic. The standardized partial regression coefficient of different chemical properties for the estimation of EC was in the order of $NO_3{^-}$ > $Cl^-$ > OM > exchangeable Mg for loam soils and $NO_3{^-}$ > exchangeable Mg > $Cl^-$ for sandy loam soils. Contribution order of the chemical properties based on standardized partial regression coefficient differed 1:5 dilution method and saturation method, indicating that different chemical compounds might be present in the extract solutions of these two methods. Consequently the measurement of EC by saturation method was thought be still better for estimation of chemical property because accuracy of EC measurement by 1:5 dilution method can't be improved by any specific coefficient for adjustment of EC. Regardless of differences in soil textures and extraction methods, correlation coefficients between EC and the other chemical properties were routinely in the order of $NO_3{^-}$ > $Cl^-$ > degree of base saturation > exchangeable Mg > exchangeable Ca > $SO{_4}^{2-}$. The principal factor analysis revealed four factor groups of the chemical properties studied. The groups for sandy loam were as follows; ; 1. salt components, 2. soil reaction components, 3. fixed and adsorption components, 4. CEC components. The groupings of loam soils were similar to sandy loam except that exchangeable Na substituted the CEC of sandy loam.

오염원의 이송확산에 관한 많은 연구들이 수행되어 왔으나 특히 비포화 영역에서 오염원 이송확산을 측정하는 것은 매우 어려운 것으로 알려지고 있다. 비포화 토양에서의 오염원 이송확산은 매질의 함수량 변화에 영향을 받기 때문에 오염원 거동특성을 이해하려면 비포화 흐름 분석을 선행한 후 오염원의 이송확산 특성을 분석하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 비포화 영역에서의 오염원 이송특성을 분석하기 위하여 TDR(Time Domain Reflectometry)을 이용하여 비포화 흐름 및 오염원 이송을 측정하였다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 TDR을 이용하여 오염원 이송을 측정하는 방법을 개발하였으며, 이 방법을 이용하여 1차원의 토양기둥시료에서 비포화 흐름 및 오염원 이송확산에 관한 실험을 수행하고 수치모형을 적용함으로써 비포화 영역에서 오염원의 이송확산에 관한 거동특성을 규명하였다. 본 연구에서는 두 종류의 국내 토양시료(SUS, KUS)를 사용하였는데, 토양의 물리적 특성을 예비실험을 통하여 규명한 후 토양기둥시료를 이용한 본실험을 수행하였다. 비포화 천이흐름하의 오염원 이송확산 실험에서는 급격한 습윤전선의 전진에 따른 종형의 함수량변화를 관측할 수 있었고, 이때 오염원의 농도는 함수량의 천이구간의 중심점으로부터 전방영역의 농도분포가 습윤전선에서의 함수량 분포와 유사한 종형을 이루고 있음을 관측할 수 있었다. 비포화 정상흐름하의 오염원 이송확산 실험에서는 오염원이 이송하며 농도 천이구간이 확장되어지는 전형적인 형태를 보였다. 또한 예비실험에서 측정한 매개변수를 입력자료로하여 수행한 수치결과와 실험결과를 비교하였는데 비포화 흐름특성은 실험결과와 수치결과가 정량적으로 일치하는 경향을 보였으나, 오염원 이송확산 특성은 정량적으로 수치결과가 실험결과보다 더 많이 확산되는 경향을 보였다. 따라서 수치모형을 현장에 적용할 경우 확산지수 결정에 주의하여야 할 것으로 판단된다. 즉, 수치모형에 적용할 확산지수는 BTC 실험을 통하여 측정한 확산지수, 수치확산, 흡착계수, 적용영역의 크기 등을 고려하여 결정하여야 한다. 특히 본 논문에서는 TDR을 이용하여 최초로 천이상태의 함수량과 오염원 농도를 측정하였는데 이를 위하여 전기전도도와 함수량관계를 추정하는 식을 제안하였으며, 전기전도도와 토양수 농도, 전기전도도와 함수량의 관계를 이용한 천이상태의 오염원 농도 측정방법을 개발하였다. 특히 제안식에서는 한계함수량의 개념을 도입하여 전기전도도와 함수량관계를 추정하므로 추정식의 실험값 반영 정도를 증가시켰다. 본 연구에서 제안된 식을 이용하여 추정된 전기전도도와 함수량관계는 다른 제안식에 비하여 개선된 결과를 보여 주었고, 본 연구에서 개발한 오염원 농도 측정법을 이용하여 측정한 결과 함수량이 0.15이하에서는 측정오차가 크지만 함수량이 0.15이상일 경우 매우 좋은 결과를 보였는데 질량평형을 검토한 결과 약 5-10%의 오차율을 보였다. 따라서 본 논문에서 개발된 천이상태의 오염원 농도측정법은 용존 오염물질의 이송에 관한 정확한 실험을 제공할 것으로 판단된다.

Management of phosphorus availability in the plastic film house soils in Korea merits attention because salts have been accumulated for last decades due to the heavy application of fertilizers and intensive cropping practices. In an attempt to characterize the P availability, available phosphorus contents and electrical conductivity of the saturated extracts ($EC_e$) were measured for soils collected from the 169 plastic film houses in Kangwon-do. Soil phosphorus contents were analyzed by methods of Lancaster, Bray No. 1, Olsen, Truog, water extractable and saturation extracts. Phosphorus concentrations in the saturated extracts of the plastic film house soils ranged from 0.02 to $34mg\;L^{-1}$, with the average of $8mg\;L^{-1}$. The available $P_2O_5$ of the soils ranged from 136 to $3,689mg\;Kg^{-1}$, with the average of $1,261mg\;Kg^{-1}$. The water soluble $P_2O_5$ ranged from 2 to $118mg\;L^{-1}$, with the average of $39mg\;L^{-1}$. A significant correlation existed between saturation extract P (Y) and available $P_2O_5$ (X) [Y = -5.075 + 0.018X, $r=0.662^{***}$] indicating $1.0mg\;P\;L^{-1}$ of in the saturated extract was equivalent to $337mg\;Kg^{-1}$ of the available $P_2O_5$ by Lancaster method. Electrical conductivity of the saturated pastes ($EC_e$) was highly significantly correlated with EC (1:5), yielding the slope of 12.2 for the coarse textured plastic film house soils. Results of higher concentrations of available P in soil solution and dilution factor of 12.2 for $EC_e$ demonstrate that a special care must be taken in terms of fertilizer management and data interpretation for soils under this specific condition.

Several sensors have been developed for soil and plants to assess plant stress due to climate change. Therefore, the objective of the study is to nondestructively evaluate temperature stress on plant by monitoring climatic and soil conditions and plant responses using various sensors. Plant responses were monitored by electrical conductivity in plant stem and sap flow rate. Electrical conductivity in plant stem reflects the physiological activity of plants including water and ion transport. Fully grown Brassica oleracea var. italica was exposed to 20/15 ℃ (day/night) with 16 h photoperiods as a control, low temperature 15/10 ℃, and high temperature 35/30 ℃ while climatic, soil, and plant conditions were monitored. Electrical conductivity in plant stem and sap flow rate increased during the day and decreased at night. Under low temperature stress, electrical conductivity in plant stem of Brassica oleracea var. italica was lower than control while under high temperature stress, it was higher than control indicating that water and ion transport was affected. However, chlorophyll a and b increased in leaves subjected to low temperature stress and there was no significant difference between high temperature stressed leaves and control. Free proline contents in the leaves did not increase under low temperature stress, but increased under high temperature stress. Proline synthesis in plant is a defense mechanism under environmental stress. Therefore, Brassica oleracea var. Italica appears to be more susceptible to high temperature stress than low temperature.

This study was conducted to obtain basic information on the desalinization in newly reclaimed tideland. A desalinization experiment with leaching method was carried out using the soil samples collected in Haenam tideland, and the early growth response of winter barley to salt stress during the desalinization was investigated by measuring emergence rate, plant height, leaf area and fresh weight. The soil in Haenam tideland was saline-sodic with 59mS / cm of electrical conductivity and pH 8.0, and the soil texture was silty loam with 16％ clay and 75％ silt. Depth of water for desalinization(DWD) to decrease the electrical conductivity below 4mS /cm was 140mm in 5cm depth soil and 240mm in 20cm depth soil. The value of pH of soil and leaching water increased from 8.0 to 8.3 until the electrical conductivity decreased to about 6mS / cm during the desalinization. .The emergence rate of winter barley was over 75％ in the DWD above 80mm and showed no significant difference with the DWD. The DWD for the normal growth of winter barley seedling was above 120mm at 1 and 2 weeks after sowing(WAS), and above 160mm at 3 and 4 WAS. The leaf area and fresh weight showed no response for salt stress with the DWD above 12mm at 2 WAS, and above 16mm at 3 WAS. It was estimated that the electrical conductivity of soil saturation extract for the normal growth of winter barley during early seedling growth stage in new reclaimed tideland would be below 9mS / cm in 20cm depth soil.

This study was carried out to investigate the factors of desalinization of the rainfall interception culture soils of Rubus sp. in Gochang-gun, Jeollabuk-do. Soil samples were collected from 85 different sites of the rainfall interception culture soils of Rubus sp. in Gochang-gun, Jeollabuk-do. The electrical conductivity in paste saturation of rainfall interception culture soils ranged from $1.0\sim28.4dS\;m^{-1}$ (average: $4.8dS\;m^{-1}$) and salt affected soil which EC was higher than $4dS\;m^{-1}$, covered nearly 55% of all field surveyed. Salts in rainfall interception culture soils were accumulated by increasing the cultivation period. Electrical conductivity in rainfall interception culture soils was positively correlated with water soluble anions such as chloride ion ($r=0.85^{**}$), nitrate ion ($r=0.94^{**}$), phosphate ion ($r=0.88^{**}$), and sulfate ion ($r=0.84^{**}$), respectively. As a result of desalinization experiments carried out by water management practices, the rinsing method was more effective than leaching method.

작물의 최대 수확을 위한 관개계획은 작물의 수분장력 스트래스와 삼투스트래스를 최소화 시킬 수 있도록 언제 얼마의 물을 어떤 속도로 공급해 줄 것인가를 결정하는 것이다. 이는 토양, 작물 및 대기의 여러 가지 요소를 측정하여 결정할 수 있다. 관개속도는 주로 토양의 투수계수에 의하여 결정되지만 관개시간과 양은 토양함수량과 경우에 따라서는 토양염도에 의하여 결정된다. Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR)는 한 개의 탐침으로 토양 함수량과 토양염도를 동시에 측정하는 새로운 기법이다. TDR의 측정원리와 상업용 TDR장비에 대하여 자세히 설명하였다. TDR 탐침의 간격, 직경 및 길이의 제한요소를 토양함수량과 전기전도도의 함수로 나타내었다. 토양 columm 및 현장에서의 TDR 전극 삽입과 케이블테스터의 신속한 분리기법과 토양층에 TDR 탐침을 영구히 설치하는 기법에 대하여 자세히 설명하였다.
