We investigated the growth response and population regeneration of four halophyte species: Suaeda japonica, Salicornia europaea, Suaeda maritima and Suaeda glauca, when climate change proceeds caused by increased CO2 concentration and temperature. The plants collected from habitat in 2018 were transplanted into Wagner pots, and cultivated for two years in greenhouse divided into a control (ambient condition) and a treatment (elevated CO2+elevated temperature). The shoot length of halophytes was measured in July of each year, and the population regeneration rate was measured in October 2019. The shoot lengths of S. japonica and S. glauca had no difference between control and treatment for two years. Those of S. europaea were longer in control than treatment for two years. Those of S. maritima had no difference between control and treatment in 2018 but were longer in control than treatment in 2019. In control, the shoot lengths of S. japonica, S. europaea and S. glauca had no difference between years while those of S. maritima were longer in 2018 than in 2019. In treatment, those of S. japonica, S. europaea and S. maritima were shorter in 2019 than 2018 but S. glauca had no difference between years. The regeneration rates of S. japonica, S. europaea and S. glauca were lower treatment than control, and there was no difference in the regeneration rate of S. maritima. In conclusion, if climate change progresses caused by the increase of CO2 concentration and temperature, the shoot lengths of S. japonica, S. europaea and S. maritima will be shortened, and the regeneration rate of population will be increased only in the S. maritima.

작물의 생산량은 광합성과 밀접한 관계가 있으며, 광합성 속도는 다양한 환경 요인에 의해 변화한다. 광합성 속도는 작물의 생육 상태나 생육 속도를 판단하는 지표로 사용되며, 작물 재배 시설을 구축하는 데 고 려해야 하는 중요한 요인이다. 이 연구의 목적은 광도, CO2 농도 및 생육 단계에 의해 변화하는 로메인 상추 의 군락 광합성 속도 모델을 개발하는 것이다. 군락 광합성 속도는 정식 후 5, 10, 15, 20 일차에서 5단계의 CO2 농도(600-2,200μmol·mol-1)와 5단계의 광조건(60-340μmol·m-2·s-1)이 처리된 3개의 밀폐 아크릴 챔버(1.0 × 0.8 × 0.5m) 내에서 측정하였다. 먼저 세 가지 환경 요인을 사용하는 식들을 곱하여 만든 단순곱모델을 구성 하였다. 이와 동시에 생육 시기에 따라 변화하는 광화학 이용효율과 카르복실화 컨덕턴스, 호흡에 의한 이산화탄소 발생 속도를 포함하는 수정 직각쌍곡선 모델을 구성하여 단순곱 모델과 비교하였다. 검증 결과, 단순곱 모델의 R2는 0.923이었으며, 수정 직각쌍곡선 모델의 R2는 0.941을 나타내었다. 따라서 수정 직각쌍곡선 모델 이 광도, CO2 농도, 생육 단계의 3 변수에 따른 군락 광합성 속도를 표현하는 데 더욱 적합한 것으로 판단하 였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 군락 광합성 모델은 식물공장에서 상추 재배를 위해 생육 단계별로 설정해야 할 최 적의 광도와 CO2 농도를 결정하는데 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다.

The advanced method for CO2capture is currently one of the most important environmental issues in worldwide and it is therefore necessary to have available technologies, which minimize the discharge of CO2 including Carbon-14 from nuclear facilities into the atmosphere. A key aspect of this work is to provide the technically principal data required to improve a CO2 removal system for the utilization of regenerative sorbent use, specifically include suggestions regarding its modified column design (parallel dual-bed assembly), stop-restart operation and the economic feasibility of sorbent use. The removal performance of soda lime and the effects of relative humidity (RH) and packing bed-depth (BD) on CO2 removal were investigated. In a single-bed, it revealed that the utilization of soda lime for CO2 removal at line velocity of 13 cm/sec and bed depth of 12 cm increased with the increased relative humidity up to 85%. However, in the parallel dual-bed assembly applied with the stop-restart operation, a maximum utilization rate of soda lime for CO2 removal was obtained even at 55% of RH and 8 cm of BD, specifically the utilization rate of soda lime by using this CO2 removal assembly was about two-fold superior to that in a single-bed.

본 연구는 배양기의 환기횟수(0.1 h-1 또는 2.8 h-1), 광도(70, 150 또는 220μmol. m-2 . s-1), C O2 농도(400-500, 1000 또는 2000μmol.mo l-1)가 국화 소식물체의 기내생장에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다. MS 배지에서 혼합영양배양 상태 하에서 번식시킨 줄기 마디 절편체를 채취하여 1.25meq. L-1의 H2S O4-가 추가로 첨가된 MS 기본배지가 담긴 3.7×10-4 m3의 배양기에 용기당 4개씩 치상하였다. 환기횟수(NAEH)를 0.1 h-1에서 2.8 h-1로 향상시키기 위하여 배양용기의 뚜껑에 직경 10mm의 구멍을 뚫어 통기성의 필터를 부착하였으며, 당과 생장조절제는 첨가하지 않았다. 배양실에 C O2를 공급하기 위하여 공기 순환통로에 C O2 가스 공급구를 설치하여 액화 C O2 가스를 명기 동안에만 공급해 주었다. 생체중과 건물중, 초장, 최대근장, 엽수, 엽면적은 광도(PPF)가 높은 처리구에서, 특히 C O2 농도가 높을 때 증가되었다. 그리고 환기횟수가 낮은 처리구에서보다 높은 처리구에서 더 컸으며, 처리효과는 배양후기로 갈수록 뚜렷이 증가되었다. 국화 소식물체의 기내생육은 환기횟수가 2.8 h-1, PPF가 220μmol. m-2 . s-1, 그리고 C O2 농도가 2000μmol.mo l-1일때 가장 빨랐다.

Seasonal changes in the CO2 fixation rate and water-use efficiency in the leaves of six evergreen and two deciduous broad-leaved tree species on Jeju Island, Korea, were measured using a portable photosynthesis analyzer, to identify which species are most efficient in taking up CO2 from the air. The CO2 fixation rate was high in the deciduous species in spring and summer and decreased in fall, whereas it was high in the evergreen species in summer and fall and decreased in winter. The rate remained high in the deciduous tree Prunus yedoensis from spring to fall (> 7.1 μmol CO2/m2/s) and in two evergreen trees, Castanopsis cuspidata var. sieboldii and Cinnamomum camphora, in summer and fall (7.0 9.9 μmol CO2/m2/s). Therefore, these tree species fix atmospheric CO2 effectively. The water-use efficiency was higher in evergreen species than in deciduous species regardless of the season. Exceptionally, it was high in the deciduous species Zelkova serrata in spring and summer (> 100 μmol CO2/mol H2O), suggesting that Z. serrata is a useful tree for dry conditions due to its tolerance of water stress. The regressions of the CO2 fixation rate versus the evaporation rate and stomatal conductance were linear and non-linear, respectively. This suggests that the stomatal activity of leaves plays an important part in CO2 fixation of plants. In conclusion, C. cuspidata var. sieboldii, C. camphora, and P. yedoensis should be planted along roads or in urban spaces for the greening of cities and mitigation of CO2 concentrations in the air.
