Nonpoint sources of pollution (NPS) is defined as diffuse discharges of pollutants (e.g., nutrient, pesticide, sediment, and enteric microorganism) throughout the natural environment and they are associated with a variety of farming practices. Previous studies found that water soluble anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) is one of the highly effective measures for enhancing infiltration, reducing runoff, preventing erosion, controlling nonpoint source of pollutants, and eventually protecting soil and water environment. Potential benefits of PAM treatment in agricultural soil and water environments have been revealed by many research and they include low cost, easy and quick application, and suitability for use with other Best Management Practices (BMPs) for NPS control. This study reviews the various applications of PAM and discusses its further potentials in agricultural environment.

토양오염은 인간의 활동에 의해 만들어진 물질로 인해 발생하고 있으며, 인간뿐만 아니라 모든 생물에게 피해를 주고, 정화비용이 크다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서 정밀한 토양오염분석 활용을 위한 심도별 3차원 토양오염지도 구축을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 연구대상지인 부산광역시 동래구에서 기존 토양오염조사 지점의 최근린분석을 실시하였고, 0.72로 군집되는 경향을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 군집지역 이외에는 오염 값의 정확도가 보다 낮다. 이에 조사지점을 $1km{\times}1km $ 격자의 중심을 조사할 것을 제시하였고 일정한 조사지점으로 균일한 정확도를 나타낼 수 있도록 하였다. 또한, 지표면 및 지하공간에서 토양오염 기준은 5단계로 나눴으며 지표면의 경우 토양 단위 무게 당 오염물질의 양을 IDW 보간법을 이용하여 지도를 구축을 하였다. 지하공간에서의 토양오염분석은 지표면의 오염, 지형을 통한 오염물질의 흐름과 국토지반정보시스템에서 504개의 시추정보로 투수계수, 지하수위를 영향인자로 선정하였으며, 영향인자의 특성을 종합점수로 나눠 0~20점으로 산정하였다. 토층에 특성을 고려한 지표면-지하공간의 심도별 3차원 토양오염지도 구축이 가능하였고, 이후 토양오염의 지반 침투 시 전체적인 침투 분석이 가능할 것으로 판단되었다. 또한, 심도별 영향분석과 지하수 오염에 대한 보다 정확한 예측이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

As grouting materials for ground improvement, silicate materials such as water glass, silica-sol and so forth are used worldwide. However, they may pollute underground water. In this study, fish poison test(Korean standard industrial code KS M 0111) which estimates toxicity for fish is applied to evaluate the toxic effect by grouting materials. From the test result of the sample made of LW, LC50(Median Lethal Concentration) reaches within 24 hours. In case of the silica-sol, it does not even in 96 hours. Therefore, we can conclude that the sililca-sol grouting method is more free from the danger of underground water pollution. From the result that the mortality of fish under the condition of pH 8.6 is 0% within 96 hours, the groundwater can be saved by controlling pH below 8.6 for the grouting in the field.

Shallow groundwater in rural areas is primarily polluted by agricultural activities. Nitrate-nitrogen is an indicator of artificial pollution. In this study, the hydrochemical characteristics and nitrate-nitrogen pollution of shallow groundwater were examined in two agricultural villages (Hyogyo-ri and Sinan-ri) in Chungcheongnam-do Province, Korea. Physicochemical quality analysis of shallow groundwater and stream water in the field, and chemical analysis in the laboratory were conducted from July 2020 to October 2021. In Hygyo-ri and Sinan-ri villages, shallow groundwater mainly belonged to the Ca-Cl, Ca-H CO₃, Na-HCO₃, and Na-Cl types, whereas stream water predominantly belonged to the Ca-HCO₃ type. The nitrate-nitrogen concentration in shallow groundwater varied depending on the season, displaying an increased concentration of nitrate-nitrogen in the dry season compared to the rainy season. Stream water may be influenced by runoff into villages from the surrounding area, although both shallow groundwater and stream water are affected by artificial pollution. In addition, the nitrate-nitrogen concentration in stream water was lower than that in shallow groundwater.

The escalating growth of industrial sectors has led to a pervasive global problem—oil pollution, particularly in industrial areas. The release of substantial volumes of oil and its by-products into the environment has resulted in extensive contamination. Multiple factors contribute to the entry of these substances into water bodies and soils, thereby inflicting irreparable consequences on ecosystems, natural resources, and human health. Consequently, it becomes imperative to comprehend the characteristics and behavior of oil pollution, anticipate its impacts, and develop effective mitigation strategies. Understanding this intricate issue requires considering the physicochemical properties of the environment, the interactions between oil and sediments, and biological factors such as evaporation and dissolution. Although the oil industry has brought about remarkable advancements, its activities have raised significant concerns regarding pollution from extraction and production processes. Oil-rich nations face a particularly challenging predicament of soil pollution caused by petroleum compounds. The areas surrounding oil exploration mines and refineries often endure contamination due to oil leakages from storage tanks and transmission lines resulting from deterioration and damage. Investigating the dispersion of such pollutants and devising methods to remediate petroleum-contaminated soil represent crucial and intricate issues within the realm of environmental geotechnics.

한국은 양적으로 강수량이 풍부하지만 강우현상이 편중되어 매년 일정기간의 가뭄기를 겪는다. 더구나 그 토양은 대부분 화강암에서 유래한 거친 입자의 것으로서 보수력이 낮다. 수 종의 참나무류와 소나무의 수분스트레스에 대한 반응 결과는 수분수지가 식생의 분포를 결정하는 주 요인임을 보여주었다. 뿐만 아니라 몇몇 상록식물의 월동기간 중 내한성 기작에 기인한 탈수 정도는 자연상태에서 그들의 분포와 밀접하게 관계되었다. 수분스트레스 처리 실험 결과 소나무는 건조에 대해 강한 내성을 보였지만 그 유식물은 가뭄기에 높은 고사율을 나타내었다. 그 고사율은 지소의 토양수분함량에 비례하는 경향이었다. 가뭄이 심한 6월 중 삼림토양의 수분함량과 수분스트레스 처리 실험에서 소나무 유식물이 영구위조점에 도달한 시점에서 배지토양의 수분함량을 비교한 결과는 가뭄기에 소나무 유식물의 높은 고사율이 수분부족에 기인함을 입증하였다. 대기오염물질 폭로실험 중 측정된 시료식물의 수분포텐셜은 시료식물에서 가시피해의 발생과 그 내성에 수분요인이 관계될 가능성을 보여주었다. 야외 현장 조사와 실내실험 결과 둘 다에서 심한 대기오염에 노출된 식물은 그렇지 않은 것과 비교하여 수분소실이 빠르게 일어나는데, 그것은 오염물질에 의한 잎 표면의 손상 정도와 관계되었다. 산성 토양에서 높은 함유량을 보이는 알루미늄은 식물의 뿌리생장을 억 제하거나 비정상적 분포를 가져와 수분스트레스를 유발하였다. 대기오염과 토양 산성화에 기인한 이러한 수분스트레스 효과는 한국의 기후와 토양이 가지는 기존의 수분결핍효과에 덧붙여져 삼림쇠퇴를 유발하는 주 요인으로 작용할 가능성이 있다. 토양의 유기물 함량을 높여 포장용수량 증가에 기여할 수 있는 sludge는 산성토양을 개량하는데 기존의 개량제 못지않은 효과를 보였고, 낙엽 추출물 또한 알루미늄에 의한 수분스트레스 효과를 완화시키는데 기여하였다. 이러한 결과를 종합하여 한국에서 삼림쇠퇴를 유발할 수 있는 스트레스요인들의 잠재적 상호작용을 모식화하였다. 나아가 그것을 완화할 수 있는 복원방안을 토양개량과 식생복원의 측면에서 제시하였다.

This result showed that the middle school students' response for the environment condition was highly negative. The major findings of this study are as follows. 1. Students would become to know the environmental pollution through reading of newspapers and TV rather than school education. 2. Students' response for air and water pollution was seriously accepted in city areas than in country areas, and in large cities than in small cities. 3. Students' response for air pollution showed that the quality of air was getting worse and major factor of air pollution was the exhausts of automobiles. 4. It showed that students' concern for water pollution was increased and water pollution was being accelerated by the increase of domestic and industrial sewages, the overuse of the agricultural chemicals, the entrophication and acid rain. 5. Students thought that soil pollution was mainly due to factory sewage, life sewage, heavy metal and agricultural medicines and so on. But now they think it is due to the degenerated and inseparable things such as used vinyle for farm and plastics. 6. Most students thought of the pollution of our country as serious. But they thought it could be removed if we tried to get rid of pollution. 7. Now students' consciousness to protect the nature took an active interest turn and was strong. Putting these various findings together, I suggested that, the efforts to turn students affirmative consciousness for the environment and a powerful plan by the nation to take off pollution should be needed. Also the education to enforce the environment preservation had to be needed.

Non-point source pollution, which is found in soil, urban area, and agricultural area, is difficult to have its amount to be estimated. Moreover, it is hard to come up with a counterplan to cope with this pollutant. Hence, the watershed of Mandae-cheon located at the upstream of Soyang Lake was chosen as our site of study. We analyzed the relationship between precipitation level of each month and pollution load in the watershed by using statistical methods: measuring BOD, T-N and T-P - which are the causes of eutrophication - in the water; and analyzing the changes in water quality caused by precipitation level of nth.

Enormous volumes of mining wastes from the abandoned and closed mines are disposed without a proper treatment at Southeastern part of Kangwon Province. Erosion of these wastes contaminates soil, surface water, and sediments with heavy metals. Objectives of this research were to fractionate heavy metals in the mine waste and to assess the potential S. P. A. G.(Soil Pollution Assesment Guidance) of each metal fraction. Mine wastes analyzed for physical and chemical properties. pH of wastes ranged from 3.3 to 8.0. Contents of total N and loss on ignition matter were in the ranges of 0.2~5.6%, and 0.8~15.3%, respectively. Heavy metals in the wastes were higher in the coal mines than those in the other mine wastes. Total concentrations of metals in the wastes were in the orders of Pb > Zn > Cu > Cd, exceeded the corrective action level of the Soil Environment Conservation Law and higher than the natural abundance levels reported from uncontaminated soils. Relative distribution of heavy metal fractions was residual > organic > reducible > carbonate > adsorbed, reversing the degree of metal bioavailability. Mobile fractions of metals were relatively small compared to the total concentrations. Soil Pollution Assesment Guidance(SPAG) values were ranged from 0.08 to 9.14 based on labile fraction of metal concentrations. SPAG values of labile concentration were lower than those of total concentration.
