This study was conducted to obtain the basic information to increase the practical use of soil survey data through the subdividing of lava shapes with soil sequences due to different elevations in Jeju. The numbers of soil series of lava topography had occupied many of whole soil series in Jeju. When its topography subdivide, it give more detailed soil information. The obtained results are as follows; The lava topography to subdivide lava topography were studied with 38 soil series according to elevation in Jeju. Division of elevation are less than 50m, 50m to 200m, and 200m to 400m and more than 400m. Name the depending on elevation, less than 50m is called lower part of lava, 50m to 200m is called middle part of lava, and 200m to 400m and more than 400m are called upper part of lava. The characteristics of lava subdivide are as follows; soil family texture of lower part of lava is fine silty to clayey, drainage classes are various, average of available soil depth is 75.3cm, average of gravely contents are 11.6%, average of slopeness is 7.2%, limiting factor are various and soil order are various. soil family texture of middle part of lava is fine silty to coarse silty, drainage classes are well to very well, average of available soil depth is 65.9cm, average of gravely contents are 14.7%, average of slopeness is 11.3%, limiting factor are ashy and soil order are Andisols and Inceptisols. Soil family texture of upper part of lave is fine silty, drainage classes are well, average of available soil depth is 72.8cm, average of gravely contents are 16.0%, average of slopeness is 14.9%, limiting factor are ashy and skeletal, and order are Andisols.

In Chugaryeong rift valley, lava plateau formation by the fissure eruption had vanished original landforms and effected on drainage derangement and revision. 4 rivers including Namdae-cheon, Bukhan-gang, Imjin-gang and Hantan-gang watersheds have shared Cheolwon-Pyeonggang lava plateau, that is, ownerless watershed. Main agency of the dividing process are central-eruption volcanic peaks such as Orisan(453m) and 680 Peak. Especially, Orisan has played the role of divide point for 4 watersheds. In the lower-relief plateau zone, complex drainage system have caused continually river capture between neighboring watersheds. In more elevated range slope, river capture have proceeded to headward erosion. Hydrogeomorphologically, lava-filled valley has initiated decrease of the original size of flood plain, maybe, causing higher capability of inundation by heavy rains, and then more active dissection of lava plateau layer.

The purpose of this study is to clarified the geology and geomorphic characteristics of the Hantan River Basin. In this area, some kind of landforms are developed such as pre-land forms, lava plateau, and present landforms etc. Some river terraces are peculiar features in the area. Some conclusions are as follows : The vicinity of the Hantan River is lava plateau formed from the volcanic activity. Some steptoes are located in the lava plateau. Baekeuiri formation means the river bed boulder beneath the lava formation. The development of drainage patterns are unstable and the bifurcation ratio, the ratio of mean length of the river are lower than the other rivers. The relative height of the terraces is about $5{\sim}25m$ and the terraces are alluvial terraces. In the Jiktang Fall area, bedrock is granite and basalt plateau covered the bedrock. In that point, the old erosion surface is relatively steeper than the horizontal-basalt plateau. Vertical columnar joints are developed and weathering materials creep on the valley wall. The cross section of the landform of the Kosukjung vicinities are somewhat different from the landforms of Jiktang Fall. The bedrock near the Kosukjung is granite that is the same with the Jiktang Fall. But the cross section shows a asymmetrical curve from each side.

전곡리 일대는 화산지형, 단층지형, 구석기 문화연구 등 여러 분야의 학문적 관심이 집중된 지역이다. 본 연구는 박편 분석, 물리화학 광물분석등이 수단을 활용하여 전곡리 용 암대지를 덮고 있는 피복물의 형성과 퇴적 후의 변화과정을 밝히려고 한 것이다, 여기서 다 음과 같은 사실을 밝힐수 있었다. 전곡리 용암대지는 Riss-Wrm 간빙기에는 별로개석되 지 않았다가 Wrm 빙가에 들어와 인근 황해의 해수면이 낮아지면서 개석된 것으로 추정 된다. 그리고 Wrm빙기 전기간에 걸쳐 용암대지에는 건육화된 황해와 인근 하천(한강, 임 진강) 범람원에서 바람에 의해 날려온 미립물질이 약 8m 이상 퇴적되었다. Wrm 빙기후 기에는 이풍적토(Loess)가 여름에도 녹지 않는 결빙층이 발달했을정도의 한랭 습윤했던 기 후의 영향을 받았다, 이로 인해 일련의 크랙(엽상구조를 이루는 수평크랙과 불규칙한 수직 방향크랙)들이 발달했고 풍적 물질의 미시적 조직과 구조도 많이 변화했다. 또한 결빙작용 으로 변형된 구조의 규제를 받으며 gleyzation 이 진전되었다. 단면 관찰에서 회백색 얼룩과 붉은 또는 검붉은 얼룩이 복잡하게 섞여 있는 모습은 바로 이것이 진전된 결과이다, 그간 발굴된 구석기 유물들은 결빙구조 및 gleyzation의 흔적이 잘 나타나는 부의에서 출토되었 다, 이사실은 본 지역의 구석기 인류가 생활했던 시기는 Wrm 빙기에서도 이러한 한랭 기후가 있기 이전이었음을 시사한다.

The Cheolwon-Pyeonggang Lava Plateau on the Chugaryeong tectonic valley is one of the most extensive volcanic areas in central Korea. However, formative age and process of the plateau still remains a controversial issue. This study presented OSL ages on the upper and lower sedimentary layers of basalt from four sites in the Cheolwon and Yeoncheon areas and estimated age and process of plateau formation based on sedimentary- and chrono-stratigraphy and topographic analysis. The results suggested that most of the initial topography of the plateau on the Cheolwon and Yeoncheon areas had been almost completed before approximately 90 ka. However, the last lava flow around Jangheung-ri, Cheolwon, seemed to occur until 20-30 ka and had led to complete the present plateau, while the last lava flow in the Jeongok area, Yeoncheon, was estimated to occur at approximately 40 ka.

This study tried to reveal incision rate and its change by formation of lava plateau in the Cheorwon-Jeongok area. Incision rates of 0.421 m/ka and 0.101 m/ka in the upper and lower reaches of Hantan-gang, respectively, were calculated from sites before formation of lava plateau. These incision rates indicate that the upper and lower reaches of Hantan-gang have much higher and slightly lower incision rates than streams with similar distances from the Taebaek Mountains. However, sites after formation of lava plateau mostly showed incision rates ranging from 0.5 m/ka to 0.9 m/ka. Streams flowed on the lava plateau revealed 2-3 times higher incision rates than unrelated-streams or paleo-streams to formation of lava plateau did. These results suggest that incision rate in the study area was greatly influenced by formation of lava plateau and resultant geomorphic avulsion with rearrangements of stream.

오대연지는 중국 흑룡강성의 덕도현 경내에 자리잡고 있는 화산지역이다. 본 지역에는 제4기이래에 형성된 화산들이 많이 분포되여 있는데 그 중심부위에는 구슬 모양으로 된 다섯개 못이 있기에 오대연지라 한다. 본 지역의 면적은 막 800$\textrm{km}^2$ 가 되는데 지형상에서는 주로 화산추와 용암대지로 이루어져 있다. 화산의 형성시대가 다르고 자연경관이 전형적이기 때문에 국내외에서 자연적인 화산박물관으로 널리 알려져 있다.(중략)
