한 지점의 수문 반응을 결정짓는 주요 인자 중의 하나는 유역의 형상과 유역 내 하계망 구조이다. 유역의 형상과 하계망 구조는 지질시간 규모에 걸쳐 서서히 형성된 것으로, 주로 지반운동, 암석 및 지질구조, 그리고 이에 대응하는 지표 침식 정도에 의해 결정된다. 따라서, 암석 및 지질구조가 균질하다면, 유역의 특성은 지반운동과 지표 침식에 의해 좌우될 것이다. 본 연구는 지반운동의 시간적인 분포가 서로 다른 조건일 때 유역 특성이 각각 어떠한지를 수치지형발달모형(numerical landscape evolution model)을 이용한 모의실험을 통해 이론적으로 탐색해보았다. 구체적으로 모의 기간 동안의 총 지반융기량은 동일하더라도, 융기율이 전 기간동안 동일한 조건, 융기율이 특정 시점에 집중되는 조건, 그리고 융기율이 높았던 때와 낮았던 때가 반복되는 조건 등 세가지 시나리오를 실험하였다. 각 조건에 대해, 유역 형상과 하계망 구조는 어떻게 형성되는지를 살펴본 것이다. 모의결과 유역의 형태와 하계망 구조는 총융기량보다는 융기율의 시간 분포에 결정적인 영향을 받는다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 융기율의 시간분포는 유역의 전반적인 경사(하천 종단의 요형도)와 충적하상 및 기반암하상 하도의 분포 등에 큰 영향을 주었다.

The most common method for estimating the uplifting rate is to measure the height of the coastal terraces. Coastal terraces are basically formed at the sea level position. During the Holocene age, both the height of the sea level and the coastal terrace are uncertain. The purpose of this paper is to clarify that the uplifting rate of the Korean Peninsula varies depending on the region, based on the height of sea level, the height of coastal terraces, and GPS observations. Gangwon-do and Jeolla-do provinces seem to have been stabilized at least since the beginning of the Holocene period. Overall distribution pattern of the uplifting rates on the Korean peninsula is likely to be related to the massifs. Of course, the boundaries of the massifs are faults, so the role of faults would be great. Essentially however, it is reasonable to consider that the difference in local uplift rates depends on the characteristics of the massif itself. The characteristics may include differences in response to stresses from tectonic movements, differences in crustal thicknesses, and so on.

The amount of material upheaved owing to the installation of a granular compaction pile (GCP) in the seabed was analyzed by a field execution. The amount of material upheaved was predicted by existing equations, proposed by the Korea Construction New-Technology Association (KCNET; 2003) and Shiomi and Kawamoto (1986), and compared with the amount measured by bathymetry in the field. As a result, the upheaval heights were found to show a clear increase with increasing replacement ratio. The measured amount was larger than the amount predicted by the equations, but the amount predicted from the equation proposed by KCNET (2003) was relatively close to the measured amount. The upheaval heights were found to be more sensitive to the replacement ratio than the installation depth. The increasing trends of the upheaval heights with the installation depth as predicted by the equation of KCNET (2003) were in agreement with the measured trends at a replacement ratio of 25%. As a result of comparing the coefficients of upheaval by the equations, the coefficients of upheaval determined by the equation of KCNET (2003) were larger than those determined by the equation proposed by Shiomi and Kawamoto (1986), which were relatively close to the measured trends. Specifically, the difference between results obtained by both these equations was large when the replacement ratio was relatively low.

This study tried to produce an uplift rate map and reveal the spatial distribution of the rate with topographical characteristics and absolute ages on marine terrace in the East Coast of the Korean Peninsula. Based on a total of 57 ages at 26 sites from previous study and 13 ages at 13 sites from this study, the coast showed the rates ranging from 0.145 m/ka to 0.410m/ka with an average of 0.258 m/ka. The highest and lowest rates were found from the Jeongdongjin area in Gangneung and the Goraebul area in Yeongdeok, respectively. However, some areas in the coast showed large differences in the rate among the sites. In addition, areas with only 1 age were also found, indicative of low reliability. This study suggests that a more reliable and precise interpretation on the rate can be made with more ages identified, especially in Goseong to northern part of Gangneung, middle and southern parts of Samcheok and Yeongdeok, southern part of Pohang to northern part of Gyeongju, and Ulsan.

Terrace stratigraphy of the southeastern coastal areas of Korea is reappraised on the basis of terrace mapping and geochronology. Coastal terraces are divided into uHT ($90{\sim}130\;m$), HT ($63{\sim}86m$), MT ($36{\sim}55\;m$), and LT ($8{\sim}25\;m$) according to altitude. Among these, the Lower Terrace I is interpreted to have formed during MIS 5e based on Tephras Aso-4 (MIS 5c), Ata(MIS 5d or 5e) and OSL data. The age of Lower Terrace II is thought to be MIS 5a based on tephras and OSL data. The uplift rate in the SE part of Korea during the formation of the Lower Terrace (i.e. the MIS 5) ranges from 0.08 to 0.25 mm/yr and averages as 0.15 mm/yr. Such value is quite small in comparison to that of Japan, Taiwan or many other tectonically active areas in the world.

This study tries to reveal and compare uplift rates in the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula, based on absolute ages from coastal terrace on the coast. The uplift rate in the East Coast from previous study ranges from 0.258 to 0.357 m/ka with a median rate of 0.262 m/ka and shows an increase trend from north to south. Median uplift rate of 0.082 m/ka with minimum and maximum rates of 0.053 m/ka and 0.127 m/ka, respectively, is calculated in the South Coast from previous and this studies. The uplift rate in the West Coast from 3 absolute ages in this study is 0.082~0.112 m/ka with a median rate of 0.090 m/ka. Based on these uplift rates in the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula, it can be concluded that since MIS 5, the East Coast has experienced 3 to 4 times faster uplift rate than the West and South Coasts. However, this study suggests that more discussion on whether these uplift rates are long-term tectonic movement associated with tilted warping movement since the Tertiary or short-term tectonic movement associated with isostatic rebound due to sea level change since the Last Interglacial is needed.

Researches onmarine terrace in Korea have been drastically progressed during the last two decades.main themes of researches include vertical and horizontal distribution of paleo-shoreline, sedimentary facies ofmarine terrace deposits, OSL dating of terrace deposits and estimation of uplift rate. At present, it is noted thatmarine terraces distributed at the same altitude do not always show the same sedimentary facies, nor have the same ages.marine terraces are generally divided into five terrace systems, of which ages increase in ascending order. There are some arguments about discrimination between 2nd and 3rd terrace systems and their age. The core discrepancy lies on the question of whether the level of the last interglacial terrace is on the level of about 20m or on the 30~35m(~40m) in altitude. The uplift rate based on the paleoshoreline distribution ranges between 0.10 and 0.20m/ka.

This study investigated root damage characteristics and correlations between roadside trees and street furniture through the investigation of the root damage conditions and the current status of roadside trees and street furniture in Seo-gu, Daejeon City where the occurrence of pavement uplift is frequent. The study area was divided into six areas by species of trees as Metasequoia glyptostroboides and Platanus occidentalis focusing on the streets that were installed with trees chest height and 8cm round planted at the time of the development of the Dunsan-dong Housing Site Development in Seo-gu, Daejeon metropolitan city (1990~1994). The damage rate of roadside protection frames (95.3%) was higher than that of curbstones (19.7%) at the study site. Streets without a protective frame were more likely to have damaged pavement. In addition, the frequency of breakage of protective frames was lowered when a drinking water area was increased to more than a certain level. The frequency of the type of uplift in the sidewalk pavement surfaces is in the order of tail type > mounding type > irregular type, and the frequency of the uplift direction is the highest in Direction 1 ($0{\sim}44^{\circ}C$), Direction 2 ($45{\sim}89^{\circ}$), and Direction 3 ($95{\sim}134^{\circ}$) when $180^{\circ}$ of the street direction is based on $90^{\circ}$ parallel to the curbstone. The uplift length is about 31~60cm and it is most often at a height of 3~6cm. When comparing the results of uplift deformation, Metasequoia glyptostroboides was found to be higher than the deformation of Platanus occidentalis. In addition, it can be seen that the larger the length, width and height of the ridge, the larger the deformation becomes. The relationship between the diameter at breast height, the dimension of the pavement width, the frequency of the ridge phenomenon and the deformation amount is not necessarily proportional, and there seems to be a gap due to external factors such as soil humidity and planting base. Therefore there is a need for a multi-directional approach in reducing uplift.

This study tries to reveal uplift rates inferred from relative and absolute ages on coastal terrace in the West and South Coasts of South Korea. Uplift rate from relative ages on Pleistocene coastal terrace in the West Coast rangesfrom approximately 0.059 to 0.282 m/ky, while a range of approximately 0.020~0.385 m/ky is calculated from the South Coast, suggesting that the South Coast shows higher rate than the West Coast. Based on absolute ages on coastal terrace during MIS 5 in the South Coast, on the other hand, the uplift rates 1 and 4 have ranges of approximately 0.042~0.062 m/ky and 0.051~0.087 m/ky, respectively, indicating that uplift rate in the South Coast is one-third to one-fourth to that in the East Coast. No research on absolute ages in West Coast terrace and lack of relative and absolute ages in the West and South Coasts are considered as the limit in this study.
