Abstract

This study was conducted to reclassify Bugog series based on the second edition of Soil Taxonomy : A Basic System of Soil Classification for Making and Interpreting Soil Surveys. Morphological properties of typifying pedon of Bugog series were investigated and physico-chemical properties were analyzed according to Soil Survey Laboratory Methods Manual. The typifying pedon of Bugog series has strong brown (7.5YR 4/6) loam Ap horizon (0~22 cm), brown (7.5YR 4/4) clay loam BAt horizon (22~41 cm), strong brown (7.5YR 4/6) silty clay loam Bt1 horizon (41~59 cm), strong brown (7.5YR 4/6) silty clay loam Bt2 horizon (59~78 cm), brown (7.5YR 4/4) silty clay loam Btx1 horizon(78~90 cm), and brown (7.5YR 4/4) Btx2 horizon(90~160 cm). That occurs on swale foot slope in area of mainly granite gneiss, granite, and schist rock materials. The typifying pedon has an argillic horizon from a depth of 22 to more than 160 cm and a base saturation (sum of cations) of less than 35% at 75 cm below the upper boundary of the fragipan. That can be classified as Ultisol, not as Alfisol. The pedon has udic soil moisture regime, and can be classified as Udult. That has a fragipan with an upper boundary within 100 cm of the mineral soil surface, and keys out as Fragiudult. Also that meets the requirements of Typic Fragiudult. That has 18% to 35% clay at the particle-size control section, and has mesic soil temperature regime. Bugog series can be classified as fine silty, mixed, mesic family of Typic Fragiudults, not as fine loamy, mixed, mesic family of Typic Fragiudalfs.

Alfisols로 분류되고 있는 부곡통을 재분류하기 위하여 부곡통 대표단면의 형태적 특성을 조사하고, Soil Taxonomy의 표 준 분 석 방 법 인 Soil Survey Laboratory Methods Manual에 따라서 토양을 분석하여 laboratory data sheets를 작성하였다. Ap층 (0~22 cm)은 진갈색 (7.5YR 4/6)의 양토이고, BAt층 (22~41 cm)은 갈색 (7.5YR 4/4)의 식양토, Bt1층 (41~59 cm)은 진갈색 (7.5YR 4/6)의 미사 질식양토, Bt2층 (59~78 cm)은 진갈색 (7.5YR 4/6)의 미사질식양토, Btx1층 (78~90 cm)은 진갈색 (7.5YR 4/6)의 미사질식양토, Btx2층 (90~160 cm)은 갈색 (7.5YR 4/4)의 미사질식양토이다. 부곡통은 화강편마암, 화강암, 또는 편암지대의 충적붕적층을 모재로 하는 토양으로 약한 경사지에 분포하며, 대부분 밭으로 이용되고 있다. Ap층 (0~22 cm)은 ochric 감식표층, BAt층에서 Btx2층 (22~160 cm)까지는 점토집적층인 argillic층을 보유하고, 78~160 cm 깊이에 fragipan을 보유하고 있다. 기준깊이인 fragipan 상부 경계 아래 75 cm 깊이인 153 cm 깊이에서의 염기포화도 (양이온 합)가 35.0% 미만으로 낮다. 따라서 부곡통은 Alfisols이 아니라 Ultisols로 분류되어야 한다. Udic 토양수분상을 보유하고 있으므로 부곡통은 Udults 아목으로 분류될 수 있다. 무기질 토양표면으로부터 100 cm 이내 깊이에 fragipan을 보유하고 있으므로 Fragiudults 대군의 분류기준을 충족시키고 있다. 우리나라 토양으로는 처음으로 보고되는 Fragiudults이다. 부곡통은 Fragiudalfs의 전형적인 특성을 나타내므로 아군은 Typic Fragiudults로 분류된다. 토성속 제어부 위에서의 토성속이 fine silty이고, mesic 토양온도상을 보유한다. 따라서 부곡통은 Fine loamy, mixed, mesic family of Typic Fragiudalfs가 아니라 Fine silty, mixed, mesic family of Typic Fragiudults로 분류되어야 한다.
