The safety factor of an infinite slope tends to be analyzed as lower when the effects of root cohesion are not considered into the equation. Thus, it is essential to consider regional characteristics such as root cohesion and crown density in order to obtain a reasonable safety factor value. In this study, The safety factor of the landslide model, both before and after considering crown density and root cohesion, was calculated and a comparative analysis was carried out. The safety factor is increased by the effect of roots cohesion of the analysis results, the amount of increase in safety factor along the inclination of the slope angle has been analyzed with various things, the effect of reinforcing the roots cohesion, slope of the lower angle it was found that the higher the safety factor increase.

This study suggests the topographic index-based methodology which can be used to represent the saturation of soil and thereby change of variable runoff area at basin scale. ${\infty}$-flow direction method is applied to estimate topographic index because of its freedom from the restriction of 8-flow direction method as well as possibility of the minimum flow dispersion. From the comparison of topographic index distribution with the existing result the methodology is shown to be a workable one. It is judged that the representation of variable runoff area may be a systematic tool to investigate the dynamic and non-linear property of rainfall-runoff process because it can provide the explicit way to spatial distribution of basin saturation.

1960년대 산업화와 도시화 이전 우리나라 하천은 모래, 자갈 사주가 경관생태의 대부분을 이룬 이른바 'White River'이었으나, '70년대 이후 댐건설, 하천정비 등으로 유황과 유사이송 특성이 변하면서 수변에 식생이 번무하는 이른바 'Green River'가 진행 중이다. 하천에서 식생활착은 생태 측면에서 생물 종의 다양성에 일부 긍정적인 역할을 하는 반면에, 고유종이 감소, 소멸하는 문제가 생긴다. 치수 측면에서는 흐름저항 증가와 하도의 고착화를 촉진시켜 치수 안정성에 문제를 야기할 수 있다. 본 연구는 사주 상 식생활착 현상을 정량적으로 규명하기 위한 연구의 시작으로서, 하천 식생사주역에서 식생활착에 직접적인 영향을 주는 소류력과 토양 수분 등 2대 물리 요소 중에서 후자에 초점을 맞추어 토양수분 요인과 식생 이입, 활착, 천이와의 관계를 규명한다. 이를 위해 모래하천인 낙동강 제1지류 내성천의 국가하천 구간 하류 지점인 회룡포 직상류 약 4km 지점을 시험하천 구간으로 선정하여 하천수위, 지하수위, 토양수분을 연속적으로 측정할 수 있는 시설을 설치하였다. 이러한 관측 시설을 가지고 1차적으로 2010년 8월부터 2011년 4월 초까지 지하수위와 하천수위, 토양수분을 연속적으로 모니터링하고 상호 관계를 분석하였다. 사주 상 식생 활착 특성도 주기적으로 조사하였다. 이번 일차 기초 조사 및 분석 결과, 하안에서 약 140-240m에 위치한 지하수위 관측정에서 측정된 지하수위는 하천수위 변화에 비해 시간적으로 약 20시간 지체되는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 사주 토양수분은 일반적으로 지하 깊이에 따라 커지나, 동시에 토층구조(soil texture)에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다.

For the cases of constructing reinforced earth and gabion walls on the soft ground, an appropriate replacement area of soft ground required to maintain the stability of walls was investigated by FEM analyses. Incremental analyses were performed in FEM, in which construction sequences including consolidation of soft soil layer were simulated. As a first step to suggest the appropriate replacement area, a series of analyses for cases varying the replacement depth were conducted to examine the behaviors of wall and adjacent ground according to the construction sequence. The analysis results were, then, evaluated with the proper limiting values of displacements of wall, settlements and shear strains of ground to guarantee the stability of walls, which were specified based on the literature review. Consequently, the typical construction drawings could be suggested, in which appropriate replacement areas for varying wall heights for the ground condition investigated in this study were represented in terms of the ratio of replacement depth to the height of wall.

This experiment was carried out to Investigate the environmental changes of rhizosphere, behavior of nutrient components in soul, and nutrients uptake and growth response of the tobacco plant in the condition that mulch as polyethylene film, had been removed on the ridge at the 50th day after transplanting in comparison with continuous mulching condition. The results obtained were as follows; 1. After rainfall, soil moisture content In the plow layer was greatly increased without mulch in comparison with that of the plot with mulch. As a result, leaf water potential of tobacco plant without mulch was higher than that with mulch. 2. Available nutrients such as $NH_4-N, \;NO_3-N$, and total salts in the plow layer of the plot without mulch tended to be Increased, and especially accumulated on the surface layer owing to the redistribution of soil water by rainfall during the latter growth stage after removing mulch. 3. Nutrients uptake by tobacco was much more enhanced in the plot without mulch and resulted in higher contents of total nitrogen, $NO_3-N, \;P_2O_5, \;and K_5O$ in the tobacco leaf Especially higher content of nitrogen caused the delay of maturity resulting In the increased of dry weight of top part of tobacco in the plot without mulch toned to be Increased in comparison with that in mulching condition. Content of total nitrogen, $NO_3-N$, and nicotine in flue-lured leaves was much higher in the plot without. mulch than in mulching condition, but lower content of reducing sugar in the plot without mulch resulted in lower quality of tobacco.

We conducted this study to provide essential data for implementing restoration measures on the physical properties of the geology, topography, and soil of the landcreep areas in Yangpyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do. The strata of the survey area comprised topsoil, weathered soil, weathered rock, and soft rock layers. The landcreep area, caused by colluvial debris, was located in a convex topography shape distributed as bedrock with shales and incorporated with sandstone. According to the measurement of the displacement meter, the surveyed area has crept from 1.1 mm to 6.5 mm during the recurrent landcreep between 1 July and 27 August, 2020. The landcreep had progressed over two directions (S65° W, E45° S, and E70° S) which were similar to the groundwater flow direction (E82.5° S and S16.8° W). The average slope of the landcreep area occurred on a gentle slope (19.3°), lower than the average slope of the mountain area (25°) in Korea. The bulk density in the groundwater areas was lower than that in other surveyed areas.

The characteristics of the heavy metal contamination in the soils affected by the tailings of the Palbong mine have been studied. The soils in the studied area consist mostly of loam by the particle size analysis, but a little of it, located near the stream, consist of loamy sand to sandy loam, finally to loam downward. The organic contents of soils are significantly low aoom 2 percent and the pH is in acidic ranging 6.0 $\pm$ 0.1. The samples of the parent rocks, the normal soils, the tailings and the channel deposits from the studied area were chemically analysed. From the result, the heavy metal concenlration of the soils is a little Jow compared with that of the parent rocks, shows the hydrologic process of the surface and the groundwater. The contamination of the tailings from the ore mining are high in lead, copper and arsenic. In the channel deposits the concenlrations of lead and copper are abnormally high but that of arsenic is uniquely low. And most of heavy metal contamination are decreased with the distance from the mine. It is caused by the properties of the surface and the ground water during the process of the heavy metal migration. The correlation-coefficient between sand and silt contents and the concentrations of Cd, Cu and Pb are significant but the amounts of As and Hg are increased with the clay contents. The dispersion of the heavy metals with the distance shows that the concentrations of them in the soils sampled at distance of 100 m to 200 m along the stream started near the Palbong mine are extremely high compared with those from other distances. These discrepancies are significant in Cd, Cu, Pb and Hg, but low in As. All the samples contain below detection limit of Cr+6 In the present stream water the concentrations of the heavy metals are not detected. So, it is interpreted that the concentrations in the soils are caused by the activities of the mining during the operation and have been continued by the dispersion from the tailings since after the closure of the mining, especially by the surface and ground water. The concentrations are diminished with the distance from the mining site, but in the interval of 800-2000 m increases abruptly. In the soil samples counted on the dispersion direction by wind, the lowering of the concentration is relatively uniform with the distance from the mining site. So, the rapid increase of the heavy metal concentrations is presumed to have been caused by the ground-water movement. In the migration of the heavy metals, the groundwater conditions, such as pH, Eh, the contents of colloidal particles, and Mn and Fe oxides are closely involveo. Integrating with these factors, it is interpreted that the groundwater conditions which have caused the heavy metal contamination of the studied area are those that the pH is about 3 in oxidized conditions, the contents of the colloidal particles are low, and Mn and Fe oxides are not involved in the migration of the heavy metals. Meanwhile, the vegetables growing on the soils in the studied area are not affected by the contamination of the heavy metals.
