We confirmed approximately 54,000 m2 of Gudeuljang paddy fields by an on-site survey. Of the Traditional Gudeuljang Irrigated Rice Terraces confirmed by onsite inspection, our survey showed that approximately 24,000 m2 are currently being used as paddy fields, approximately 15,000 m2 are being used as dry fields, and approximately 14,000 m2 are fallow. In terms of other non-agricultural land use, there was grassland, including graveyards; artificial arboreal land, such as orchards, rivers and wetlands, and man-made facilities, such as roads and residences. We also confirmed that the Traditional Gudeuljang Irrigated Rice Terraces had higher plant species diversity than conventional terraced rice paddies, and there was a difference in life form characteristics between the two types. Although the superficial topsoil structure is thesame for the Traditional Gudeuljang Irrigated Rice Terraces(TGIRTs) and conventional terraced rice paddies, it is thought that the differences in the subsurface structure of the TGIRTs contribute greatly to species and habitat diversity. However, the TGIRTs in Cheongsando are facing degeneration, due to damage and reduction in agricultural activity. The main cause is the reduction in the number of farming households due to an aging population in Cheongsando. In order to address this problem, we proposed a management plan, related to fallow paddy fields in South Korea, to initiate voluntary activities in the TGIRTs.展开更多

The cold resisting, heat resisting and freeze-thaw stability of liquid detergent were tested, and their foaming power, detergency, pH value as well as water-saving property were evaluated by Ross-Miles foam meter, Terg-O-tometer, pH detector and surface tensionmeter, respectively. The results showed that the ultra-concentrated liquid detergents product displayed excellent stability. pH value of liquid detergents were less than 9 with less skin irritation. The foaming power of 0.05% (weight fraction) of liquid detergents was appreciably lower than 0.2% standard liquid detergent.The detergency of 0.05% (weight fraction) of liquid detergents was better than 0.2% standard liquid detergent, especially for artificial sebum stained clothes; the water-saving of liquid detergents was better than standard liquid detergent, the surfactant concentration of second rinse solution of standard liquid detergent was 5.3 times than that of concentrated liquid detergent.展开更多
