지진에 의한 변동과 전조 현상을 규명하기 위한 다양한 연구들이 진행되었으며, 기존 연구들에서는 지진 발생의 주요 원인은 주로 단층 운동에 의한 지각 반응을 중심으로 분석하고 그 결과들을 제시하였다. 지하층에서 지진이 발생하나 발생의 원인은 지각뿐만 아니라 수환경과 연계된 인자들까지 존재하여 매우 다양하다. 즉, 지각, 토양, 토질 등 지하의 변동과 연관성이 매우 높고 수 많은 수환경자료들(지하수위, 라돈, ph, 기타 수질 요소)을 통해서 지각운동에 따른 변화와 지진발생 가능성에 대한 상관관계를 규명할 수 있는 가능성이 매우 높다. 기존 지진이 나타나는 주요 원인은 주로 활성 단층 운동에 의한 지각 반응의 영향으로 지진 발생 이전에 지각의 팽창과 변형에 의해 지하수, 지하수 수질요소(라돈, 전기전도도, 수온 등)의 지화학적 변동이 일어날 수 있는 가능성이 존재하며, 이러한 수환경 빅데이터는 지진 발생 가능성 증대와 재현기간 및 규모 증대 등 상관성이 매우 큰 것으로 분석된다. 본 연구에서는 국내발생하는 지진에 대한 경향성 분석을 통하여 내륙에서 발생하는 지진과 바다에서 발생하는 지진의 경향성 및 연관성을 분석하고자 한다. 또한 지진 발생 지역에 대하여 수환경 빅데이터(지하수위, 라돈, 수온, 전기전도도, 강수량 등)와 지진발생과의 상관관계를 분석하여 주요 원인을 제시하고자 한다.

In this study, we analyzed the results of previous studies on different types of agricultural ecosystems to understand how environmental factors in soils, which serve as significant carbon reservoirs within agricultural ecosystems, a type of terrestrial ecosystem, affect soil carbon storage and soil respiration. As a result, most previous studies have been conducted on paddy field and facility cultivation area. And, the carbon storage in the soil and the soil's chemical properties, such as soil pH, electrical conductivity, soil organic matter content, and total nitrogen content, were higher in paddy field and orchard compared to field, facility cultivation area, and other cultivation area. The soil respiration in paddy field was also higher than in other types of agricultural ecosystems. Furthermore, soil carbon storage showed a significant correlation with soil organic matter (R²=0.7237, p=0.0000), total nitrogen (R²=0.8419, p=0.0000), and available phosphorus (R²=0.3123, p=0.0024), while soil respiration had a significant relationship with soil organic matter (R²=0.5644, p=0.0000). In this study, agricultural ecosystems were found to act as carbon sinks, with soil carbon storage measured at 49.1±8.9 tons C ha^-1 in orchard, 31.8±6.9 tons C ha^-1 in paddy field, and 25.3±28.0 tons C ha^-1 in facility cultivation area. Therefore, agricultural ecosystems need to manage soil carbon storage and carbon emissions through proper soil nutrient management.

Water sources in volcanic Jeju Island are almost entirely dependent on groundwater because there are actually no perennial streams or rivers due to the permeable nature of surface soils derived from basaltic or trachytic rocks. Uncontrolled development of groundwater resulted in substantial water-level decline, groundwater pollution, and seawater intrusion in several places of the island. To maintain its sustainable groundwater, the provincial government has declared some parts of the island as the Special Groundwater Conservation/Management Area since 1994. Hence, all the activities for the groundwater development in the area should obtain official permit from relevant authorities. Furthermore, to acquire information on groundwater status, a network of groundwater monitoring was established to cover most of the low land and coastal areas with the installation of automatic monitoring systems since 2001. The analysis of the groundwater monitoring data indicated that the water levels had decreased at coastal area, especially in northern part of the island. Moreover, very high electrical conductivity (EC) levels and their increasing trends were observed in the eastern part, which was ascribable to seawater intrusion by intensive pumping in recent years. Water level decline and EC rise in the coastal area are expected to continue despite the present strict control on additional groundwater development.

The optimal operation conditions, including voltage applied, reaction time, distance between electrodes. and electrode material. were investigated for the treatment of soil flushing effluent using electrofloatation. When 3V was applied for 1 hour, 88% oil-water separation efficiency was achieved. In case of 6V and above, 90% efficiencies were achieved. As reaction time and distance between electrodes were longer, separation efficiencies were higher and lower, respectively. Separation efficiencies for different anode materials were copper > aluminum > iron > titanium. It might result from the differences of their electrical conductivities.

This experiment was conducted to obtain basic information for the management of soil and fertilization for plastic-house soil cultivated Khwari green pepper in Dang Jin area of Chung Nam Province. The range of pH with highest frequency for 36 sites investigated was 6.1~6.5, OM 1.6~2.5%, available phosphorous 601~800mg/kg, CEC 12.1~14.0 c mol/kg, clay 16.1~18.0% and below 2.0ds/m for electical conductivity of soil. Fesh fruit weight of green pepper showed very high significant positive correlation with organic matter, clay content and cation exchange capacity, while negaive correlation with electrical conductivity. Electrical conductivity showed highly significant negative correlation with CEC, clay content and organic matter in soil, respectively. To decrease below 2.0 dS/m of electrical conductivity in plastic-house soil, the content of clay and organic matter could be maintained at above 1.8% and 2.3%, respectively.

This study was carried out to examine the relationships between seasonal variations of soil $CO_2$ efflux rates and soil environmental factors in matured Pinus densiflora and Quercus variabilis stands in the Wola national experimental forests, southern Korea. Soil $CO_2$ efflux rates were measured monthly from March 2015 to February 2016. Mean soil $CO_2$ efflux rates during the study period were significantly higher in the Q. variabilis ($mean{\pm}standard$ error; $2.27{\pm}0.22{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$) than in the P. densiflora ($1.63{\pm}0.12{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}s^{-1}$) stands. Mean soil water content and pH were also significantly higher in the Q. variabilis ($26.96{\pm}0.93%$, pH 5.19) than in the P. densiflora ($21.32{\pm}0.89%$, pH 4.87) stands, while soil temperature was not significantly different between the P. densiflora ($13.92{\pm}0.67^{\circ}C$) and in the Q. variabilis ($13.52{\pm}0.70^{\circ}C$) stands. $Q_{10}$ values were higher in the Q. variabilis (3.35) than in the P. densiflora (2.72) stands. The results indicate that soil $CO_2$ efflux rates in Q. variabilis stand could be more sensitive by the change of soil temperature compared with P. densiflora stand under a similar site environmental condition.

This study was conducted to evaluate incorporation ratio of soil amendment 'Profile' to improve soil physicochemical properties and turfgrass growth. The soil amendment was added 0 (sand only), 3, 5, 7, and 10% to USGA Green-spec green sand soil. As incorporated with more 'Profile' amendment, soil electrical conductivity (EC), cation exchangeable capacity (CEC), capillary porosity and total porosity of root zone were increased than those of control, while bulk density and hydraulic conductivity decreased. Turfgrass index and clipping yield of creeping bentgrass grown in sand soil incorporated with 7% 'Profile' were improved than those of control. Correlation coefficient of turf color index and incorporation ratio of the soil amendment 'Profile' was found to show significantly positive correlation. These results indicated that application of the soil amendment 'Profile' to sand soil in golf course green improved turfgrass growth and quality by increasing CEC and porosity of root zone.

The quantification of soil respiration rates is important to understand carbon cycles of forest ecosystems. Soil respiration rates were assessed using Li-8100A soil flux system in one evergreen broadleaved (Quercus glauca Thunb.) and two coniferous (Cryptomeria japonica D. Don and Chamaecyparis obtusa Endl.) stands from May 2020 to April 2022 in southern Korea. Monthly variations of soil respiration rates were higher in the Q. glauca stand than in the C. japonica and the C. obtusa stands. The mean soil respiration rates were significantly higher in the Q. glauca stand (2.63µmol m^-2 s^-1) than in the C. japonica (0.93µmol m^-2 s^-1) and C. obtusa (0.99µmol m^-2 s^-1) stands. The three stands showed exponential relationships between soil respiration rates and soil temperature (R² = 0.44-0.80). The sensitivity of temperature (Q10 values) to soil respiration rates was highest in the Q. glauca stand (5.13), followed by the C. obtusa (3.10) and C. japonica (2.58) stands. These results indicate that soil respiration rates can be increased more in evergreen broadleaved stands than in coniferous stands under enhanced soil temperature.

This study was carried out to select salt tolerant zoysiagrass breeding lines. Eighty two native zoysiagrasses collected from S. Korea were used in this study. Saline water were prepared by mixing sea water and tap water. ECw levels of saline water treated ranged from 2 to $3dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Zoysiagrass planted in pot by sprigging were soaked into the plastic box containing saline water. Winter injury was investigated under the pot condition. Most of Z. japonica types did not show winter injury. But Z. tenuifolia type, Z. matrella type, and Z. sinica type showed winter injury under the pot condition at Cheonan area. NaCl level in soil was increased from 0% to 0.51% by treatment of saline water. Soil ECe measurement showed upto $170dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Z. tenuifolia type (Z5034), Z. matrella type ('Konhee', Z4109, 'Semill'), Z. japonica type (Z1055, Z1040, Z1008, 'Zenith', 'Millock') and medium leaf type zoysiagrass (Z6096, Z6118, Z6021, Z6074) resulted in below 30% leaf firing under the saline condition. This approach might be useful for selecting salt tolerant breeding lines.

The physico-chemical properties of the rainfall interception culture (85 sites) and the open field culture soils (85 sites) in the area of Gochang-gun, Jeollabuk-do were surveyed. Soil textural distribution of the rainfall interception culture and the open field culture soils was 74% and 64% for silt loam, 16% and 35% for loam, and 10% and 1% for clay, respectively. The percentage of aggregate rates was higher in the open field culture soils (60.06%) than rainfall interception culture soils (55.84%). Electrical conductivity, exchangeable cations, and anions in the rainfall interception culture soils were higher than those in open field soils. Specially, accumulated amount of anion in rainfall interception culture soils was remarkably higher 2~3 times than open field culture soils. The results from the analyses of rainfall interception culture soils suggested that the most critical problem is the salts accumulation caused by over-fertilization of chemical fertilizer and compost. Therefore, application rates of chemical fertilizer and compost should be controlled in order to conservation of soil and water for sustainable agriculture.
