이암층 역암층 그리고 화산암층과 같은 특수지질 불량구간에서 터널과 암반사면의 합리적인 시공을 달성하기 위해서는 먼저 대상지질에 대한 지질조건과 암반특성을 정확히 이해하는 것이 필요하며, 이를 바탕으로 지반특성에 적합한 보강대책을 수립하도록 하여야 한다. 본 고에서는 포항지역과 경주지역에서의 미고결 이암 및 역암층 그리고 제주도 화산암층에서의 암반 구조물에 대한 설계 및 시공사례를 검토하고 전형적인 미고결 지층으로 알려진 신생대 지층에서의 터널과 암반과 같은 암반구조물에 대한 설계 및 시공상의 제반 문제점을 고찰하므로서 이에 대한 합리적인 대책을 수립하고자 하였다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between geology and geothermal gradient in South Korea using GIS. For the analysis, 352 temperature logging wells were constructed to spatial database and the relationships beween geothermal gradient and geological time and lithology were analyzed using the overlay the wells layer and 1:1,000,000 scale geological map layer. The average of the geothermal aradient of South Korea is 29.34$^{\circ}C$/km. In the geologic sequence, Cenozoic strata has 39.7$0^{\circ}C$/km, Mesozoic strata has 30.63$^{\circ}C$/km , Paleozoic strata has 22.32$^{\circ}C$/km, Proterozoic strata 23.15$^{\circ}C$/km geothermal gradient value. In the lithological aspect, plutonic rocks 33.96$^{\circ}C$/km, sedimentary rocks have 24.78$^{\circ}C$/km and sedimentary and volcanic rocks have 26.85$^{\circ}C$/km geotermal gradient value. The result can be used to develop geothermal energy and hot spring as a reference.

This paper conducted the general review of the 6 genera and 22 species of ginkgoaleans known from the Mesozoic and Cenozoic strata of Korea based on the recent palaeontological knowledge. Species diversity and leaf form of the Mesozoic and Cenozoic ginkgoaleans were discussed. Results showed that 4 genera 8 species from the Mesozoic strata and 1 genus and 1 species from the Cenozoic strata were recognized respectively. Laminae of the Mesozoic type of ginkgoaleans were mostly split into narrow lobes, but those of the Cenozoic type were characterized by their fan-shaped simple leaf.

This study focuses on the investigation of geologic distribution and stratigraphy in the eastern part of Yeongdeok-gun, based on Lidar imaging, detailed field survey, microscopic observations, SHRIMP and LA-MC-ICPMS U-Pb age dating, and a new geological map has been created. The stratigraphy of the study area is composed of the Paleoproterozoic metamorphic rocks consisting of banded gneisses of sedimentary origin and schists ($1841.5{\pm}9.6Ma$) of volcanic origin, Triassic Yeongdeok plutonic rocks ($249.1{\pm}2.3Ma$) and Pinkish granites ($242.4{\pm}2.4Ma$), Jurassic Changpo plutonic rocks ($193.2{\pm}1.9Ma{\sim}188.8{\pm}2.0Ma$) and Fine-grained granites ($192.9{\pm}1.7Ma$), Formations [Gyeongjeongdong Fm, Ullyeonsan Fm. (~108 Ma), Donghwachi Fm.] of the Early Cretaceous Gyeongsang Supergroup and acidic volcanic rocks and dykes erupted and intruded in the Late Cretaceous, Miocene intrusive rhyolitic tuffs ($23.1{\pm}0.2Ma{\sim}22.97{\pm}0.13Ma$) and sedimentary rocks of the Yeonghae basin, and the Quaternary sediments. The Triassic Pinkish granites, Jurassic Changpo plutonic rocks and Fine-grained granites are newly defined plutonic rocks in this study. Miocene intrusive rhyolitic tuffs bounded by the Yangsan Fault, which was first discovered in the north of Pohang city, are believed to play an important role in the understanding of the Miocene volcanic activity and the crustal deformation history on the Korean Peninsula. It is confirmed that The NNE-SSW-striking Yangsan Fault penetrating the central part of the study area and branch faults are predominant in the dextral movement and cutting all strata except the Quaternary sediments.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the geothermal anomaly based on the relationship between heat flow values and geologic settings in South Korea. For this, a total of 247 heat flow data was constructed to spatial database and the spatial database was overlaid with 1 : 1,000,000-scale digital geologic map using GIS. As the result, the average of heat flow is 64$\pm$14mW$m^{-2}$in South Korea. In the lithological aspect, the area of sedimentary rock shows high heat flow of 74mW$m^{-2}$, sedimentary/volcanic rock area 62mW$m^{-2}$, plutonic rock area 63mW$m^{-2}$ and metamorphic rock area 61mW$m^{-2}$. In the geologic time sequence, the Cenozoic strata has 91mW$m^{-2}$, the Mesozoic and Paleozoic strata 65mW$m^{-2}$, the Proterozoic strata 55mW$m^{-2}$ and the Archean strata 61mW$m^{-2}$.

Incompetent sediments and competent volcanics are consisted of the Cenozoic geology in Korea. Although the Cenozoic area is small, it is necessary to special interesting for ground of these geological material. The Cenozoic geology shows heterogeneous characteristics. We can look at the weak Cenozoic sedimentary rocks under the hard Cenozoic basalt in the area. Some Cenozoic un(or half)-consolidated soft sediments have large, heavy and hard boulders. Some volcanics and tuffaceous sediments have swelling clays. These characteristics give very difficult problems to engineering geologists and civil engineers.

The Cenozoic geological structures and the tectonic evolution of the southern Ulleung Basin were studied with seismic profiles and exploration well data. Basement structure of the Korea Strait is distinctly characterized by normal faults trending northeast to southwest. The normal faults of the basement are most likely related to the initial liking and extensional tectonics of Ulleung Basin. Tsushima fault along the west coast of Tsushima islands runs northeastward to the central Ulleung Basin. The Middle Miocene and older sequences in the Tsushima Strait show folds and faults mostly trending northeast to southwest. These folds and faults may be interpreted as a result of compressional tectonics. The Late Miocene to Qauternary sequences are not much deformed, but numerous faults mostly N-S trending are dominated in the Tsushima Strait. The Ulleung Basin was in intial rifting during Oligocene, and then active extension and subsidence from Early to early Middle Miocene. Therefore SW Japan separated from Korea Peninsula and drifted toward southeast, and Ulleung Basin was formed as a pull-apart basin under dextral transtensional tectonic regime. During rifting and extensional stage, Tsushima fault as a main tectonic line separating SW Japan block from the Korean Peninsula acted as a normal faulting with right-lateral strike-slip motion as SW Japan drifted southeastward. During middle Middle Miocene to early Late Miocene, the opening of Ulleung basin stopped and uplifted due to compressional tectonics. The southwest Japan block converging on the Korean Peninsula caused compressional stress to the southern margin of Ulleung Basin, resulting in strong deformation under sinistral transpressional tectonic regime. Tsushima fault acted as thrust fault with left-lateral strike-slip motion. From middle Late Miocene to Quaternary, the southern margin of Ulleung Basin has been controlled by compressional motion. Thus the Tsushima fault still appears to be an active thrust fault by compressional tectonic regime.

뉴올리언스는 미시시피 강 하구에 위치하였으며 지난 2005년 허리케인 카트리나에 의해 큰 침수 피해를 입은 지역이다. 이 도시는 신생대 지층에 자리하고 있어 미고결층의 다짐작용 및 단층작용으로 최대 29mm 정도의 연간 침하율을 보여 왔다. 뉴올리언스의 계속된 침하작용은 평균해수면보다 낮은 지역에 위치한 도시의 침수위험성을 가중시키고 있어 현재 이에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. SAR영상을 이용한 차분간섭기법(DInSAR, Differential Interferometry of SAR)은 지반침하, 지진, 화산활동 등과 같이 수십 km$^2$에 걸쳐 발생하는 지표변위를 수cm-수mm의 정밀도로 관측 가능한 기술이다. 이 연구에서는 차분간섭기법을 이용하여 2005년 2월부터 2007년 2월까지 촬영된 21개의 RADARSAT-1 Fine beam mode(F5) 영상으로부터 25개의 차분간섭영상(DInSAR Interferogram)을 생성하였다. 또한 차분간섭도의 spatial decorrelation을 극복하고 시간에 따른 LOS 방향의 변위를 관측하기 위해 분석 알고리즘으로는 보완된 SBAS(small baseline subset)기법을 이용하였으며, 이 기법을 이용하여 대기의 영향 및 노이즈를 제거한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 우리는 LOS방향의 2차원 변위분포 맵을 작성하였으며, 그 결과 전체적인 침하율은 크지 않지만, 도시의 서쪽지점에서 나타나는 상대적으로 큰 -1.49cm/yr의 변위 값과 동쪽 지점에서 0.33cm/yr의 변위 값을 관측하였다. 이 같은 결과는 앞으로의 연구에서 실측 데이터 및 동일기간의 다른 SAR영상자료의 연구를 통해 보완해 나갈 것이다.
