In and around the Korean Peninsula, 9 intraplate earthquake mechanisms since 1936 were analyzed to understand the regional stress orientation and tectonics. These earthquakes are largest ones in this century and may represent the characteristics of earthquake in this region. Focal mechanism of these earthquakes show predominant strike-slip faulting with small amount of thrust components. The average P-axis is almost horizontal ENE-WSW. This indicate that not only the subducting Pacific Plate but also the indenting Indian Plate controls earthquake mechanism in the far east of the Eurasian Plate.

On the basis of lithology, the Precambrian Hongjesa Granitic Gneiss can be locally zoned into granoblastic granitic gneiss, porphyroblastic granitic gneiss, migmatitic gneiss from its center to the marginal part. There are no distinct differences in mineral assemblages by lithologic zoning, but it partly shows the change of mineral assemblage in the adjacent with migmatitic gneiss, thus mineral assemblage can be subdivided into Zone I and Zone II. In terms of mineral compositions, the characteristics of Zone I are coexisting K-feldspar+muscovite+sillimanite. The characteristics of Zone II are (1) breakdown of muscovite, (2) coexisting garnetScordierite, (3) coexisting garnet+cordierite + orthoamphibole. The Buncheon Granitic Gneiss is mainly composed of augen gneiss. In the adjacent area with Honjesa Granitic Gneisses, Buncheon Granitic Gneiss has the mineral assemblage of sillimanite+biotite+K-feldspar+(kyanite). Kyanite occurs as relict grains in the Buncheon and Hongjesa Granitic Gneissess. Kyanite shows anhedral to subhedral form and coexists with sillimanite in only one of these samples. Garnet from a migmatitic gneiss (Zone 11) has relatively high $X_{Fe}$ value in core and rim. Garnet from a porphyroblastic granitic gneiss(Zone I) has relatively homogemeous core but compositionally-zoned rim. Biotites show various colour from greenish-brown, brown to reddish brown at maximum adsorption. Also, the Ti, and Mg content in biotites increases from Zone I to Zone II. The plagioclases shows the chemical composition of $Ab_{84}An_{16}$ -$Ab_{70}An_{30}$ (oligoclase) in Zone I and $Ab_{70}An_{30}$ -$Ab_{50}An_{50}$(andesine) in Zone 11. These variations indicate that the gneisses in the study area experienced a upperamphibolite facies. The presence of kyanite as relict grains indicates that the metamorphic rocks in this area exprienced a high-temperature/medium-pressure type metamorphism, followed by high-temperaturellow-pressure metamorphism. Metamorphic P-T conditions for each gneiss estimated from various geothermobarometers and phase equilibria are 698-$729^{\circ}C$/6.3-11.3 kbar in augen gneiss, 621-$667^{\circ}C$/1.0-5.4 kbar in migmatitic gneiss, and 602-$624^{\circ}C$/1.9-3.4 kbar in porphyroblastic granitic gneiss. These data suggest that the study area was subjected to a clockwise P-T path with isothermal decompression (dP/dT=about 60 bar/$^{\circ}C$).

A geochemical technique based on rare earth element geochemistry was used to clarity the source of the Asian dust (Yellow sand) in the Daejeon area. The Asian dusts were collected 4 times during 31th March- 2nd April and 25th May-27th May 2007. The Yellow sand shows PAAS (Post Archean Australian Shale)-normalized REE pattern of the flattened LREE and slightly depleted LREE without Eu anomaly, whereas the Daejeon soil has slightly enriched LREE and depleted HREE with negative Eu anomaly. Our results show that REE patterns of the Asian dust are LREE-flattened similar to those of the sediment from the south-eastern part of Ordos desert. This suggests that Asian dust in the Daejeon area might be derived from the south-eastern part of Ordos desert.

REE, major and trace elements, and Sr-Nd isotopic ratios of surface sediments around Jeju Island were analyzed for identifying the origin of the sediments. The Chemical Index of Alteration (CIA) between 44.2 to 68.9 (av. 59.4) shows a similarity with the Huanghe sediment. The most sediments found within the study areas show a very similar chondrite-normalized REE pattern that has enriched LREE ($La_{(N)}/Sm_{(N)}$ >3) and small negative Eu anomaly, typically of average shales. The UCC-nornalized REE patterns of the southwestern offshore sediment samples show a very similar pattem with the Changjiang sediment with enriched in most REE and more convex REE pattern than those of the Huanghe and Keum rivers sediments, which indicates that the Changjiang River's suspended sediments have been transported into the western part of Jeju Island. The $^{87}Sr/^{86}Sr$ isotopic ratios vs ${\varepsilon}_{Nd}(0)$ values were thus used as a tracer to discriminate the provenance of sediments in the study area. Based on the discriminated diagram, it clearly showed that most sediments in the western and northwestern part were closely plotted with sediments of the Huanghe River. However, the sediments in the southwestern part near the Changjianf estuary were closely plotted with submerged delta sediments of the Changjiang River. In contrast, the sediment samples of the northeastern part showed discriminative figures from those of the Chinese rivers. It suggests that sediments around Jeju Island must be originated from diverse sources.

본 연구에서는 순천만(전남 순천시 해룡면 농주리) 연안습지에서 온도(퇴적물/대기), 퇴적물 내 유기탄소 및 대기 중 이산화탄소의 관계에 대해 분석하였다. 현장관측은 2008년 3월 16일11시부터 15시 사이에 수행되었으며, 약 300 m X 100 m의 갯벌 지역 내 30개 지점에서 조사되었다. 퇴적물과 대기의 온도와 대기 중 이산화탄소량은 현장에서 측정되었으며, 각 지점에서 채취된 퇴적물 내 유기탄소량은 부경대학교 공실관에서 TOC Analyzer를 이용하여 분석되었다. 퇴적물과 대기 중의 온도는 각각 13.2$\sim$17.5$^{\circ}C$ 및 15.0$\sim$18.9$^{\circ}C$의 범위이었으며, 평균은 15.65$^{\circ}C$와 17.51$^{\circ}C$로서 대기 온도가 약 2$^{\circ}C$ 정도 높았다. 대기 중 이산화탄소량은 퇴적물 직상부, 상부 0.5 m 및 1.0 m의 3개 지점에서 측정되었다. 각 지점별 평균 이산화탄소량은 퇴적물 직상부 352 ppm, 상부 0.5 m 지점 355 ppm, 상부 1.0 m 지점 363 ppm으로서 거의 유사하였으나, 퇴적물에서 상부로 갈수록 약간 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 대기 중 이산화탄소량의 분산은 퇴적물 직상부와 상부 0.5 m 지점에 비해 상부 1.0 m 지점에서 약 3배 정도 높게 나타났으며, 이는 주변 대기의 영향에 의한 것으로 판단된다. 현장에서 채취된 퇴적물 내 유기탄소량은 0.60$\sim$1.12%의 범위이었으며, 평균은 0.72% 이었다. 유기탄소량의 분산은 0.01로서 매우 낮았으며, 또한 1개 지점(1.12%)을 제외하면 유기탄소량의 범위는 0.60$\sim$0.82% 정도로서 연구지역 내 유기탄소량의 공간적인 분포가 비교적 균질함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해, 대기 중 이산화탄소량은 온도효과와 주변 대기와의 혼합 정도에 따라 영향을 받고 유기탄소는 이러한 영향성이 적었음을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this research were to find ways to detect ecotone between the Mt. Pukhansan National Park and adjacent urban residential areas, to measure the width and size of ecotone around the park, and to investigate temporal change of ecotone around the Park. Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI) derived from TM data (May of 1985, 1987, and 1993) and the analytical capabilities of GIS were used to investigate the impacts of human activities inside of and outside of the boundary of the park. Major findings of the study can be summarized as follows: First, ecotone around the boundary of the national park could be identified from NDVI-distance curves derived by a series of buffering operations with a GIS. Second, average width of ecotone around the park was nealy doubled during 1985-1993 period. Third, NDVI vaules of the park were about 14 percent higher than those of surrounding areas. Finally, it seems that the expansion of the ecotone of the park is related to heavy trampling of visitors and various types of environmental pollution of the adjacent urban areas.

최근 기후변화로 인해 예측이 어려운 국지성 호우가 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 국지성 호우는 대량의 홍수를 일으켜 유송잡물을 동반한 흐름을 야기할 수 있다. 대량의 유송잡물이 하상에 퇴적되면 통수능을 저하시키기도 하며 식생효과와 마찬가지로 유목주변으로 유속이 증가하면서 세굴현상이 발생하게 되는데, 이는 하상저하를 일으키며 수공구조물의 안정성에 지속적으로 피해를 줄 수 있다. 기후변화는 또한 강우패턴을 변화시켜 식생의 성장과 활착에도 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구지역인 내성천 회룡포의 경우, 2015년 대가뭄 발생 이후 식생활착으로 인해 식생대 면적이 증가하고 잇는 상황이다. 이는 연구지역의 흐름과 사주교란 및 하상변동에도 큰 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단되며, 특히 식생의 증가는 유송잡물의 증가를 야기 할 수 있기 때문에 식생과 유송잡물의 영향이 하천에 미치는 영향을 예측하는 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2차원 흐름모형인 Nays2D와 입자법기반의 유목동역학 모형을 활용하여 식생과 유송잡물이 하상변동에 미치는영향에 대한 수치실험을 수행하고 결과를 분석하였다. 여기서, 식생의 경우, 식생성장모형을 적용하여 시간에 따라 식생이 성장하여 항력이 증가하는 것으로 가정하였으며 유송잡물의 경우, 하상에 퇴적되는 유송잡물의 개수와 면적만큼 항력이 증가하는 것으로 가정하였다. 흐름의 경계 조건은 일반화된 부정류 수문곡선을 입력하였으며 초기 하도의 형상은 일정한 경사를 가지는 평지로 가정하여 부정류에 따라 하상변동이 발생하는 것으로 모의하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 유송잡물보다 식생대 번성이 하상변동에 상대적으로 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며, 유송잡물의 경우 국부적으로 퇴적 분포되어 그 주변으로 침식을 일으키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 유송잡물은 하안의 얕은수역에서 주로 퇴적되었다. 본 연구는 만곡부 하상변동에 대해 식생과 유송잡물을 고려하여 예측모의를 수행한 사례로서, 식생과 유송잡물이 흐름과 하상변동에 미치는 영향을 이해하는데 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다. 또한 이는 추후에 식생을 고려하는 하천관리방안을 수립 시, 식생과 유송잡물의 영향을 물리적으로 설명할 수 있는 근거자료로 제시할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

We analyze the comprehensive three-dimensional (3D) magnetic structure characteristics from the seafloor to the deep layer of the Tofua Arc (TA) 12 seamount in the Tonga Arc, Southwestern Pacific, using bathymetric and geomagnetic data, and magnetization vector inversion (MVI) results. The seafloor features surrounding TA 12 highlight a NW-SE-oriented elliptical caldera at the summit of the seamount, two small cones in the depressed area. A large-scale sea valley is present on the western flank of the seamount, extending from these caldera cones to the southwestern base of the seamount. TA 12 seamount exhibits a low magnetic anomaly in the caldera depression, whereas a high magnetic anomaly is observed surrounding the low magnetic anomaly across the caldera summit. It is therefore presumed that there may be a strong magnetic material distribution or magma intrusion in the caldera. The 3D MVI results show that the high anomaly zones are mainly present in the surrounding slopes of the seamount from the seafloor to the -3,000 m (below the seafloor) level, with the magnetic susceptibility intensity increasing as the seafloor level increases at the caldera depression. However, small high anomaly zones are present across the study area near the seafloor level. Therefore, we expect that the magma ascent in TA 12 seamount migrated from the flanks to the depression area. Furthermore, we assume that the complex magnetic distribution near the seafloor is due to the remnant magnetization.

Because of the technological innovation of information-communication, the liberalization of world trade and the intensification of regionalisation, the world economic space is in progress of globalization that is not only a product but also a capital, technology and labour move freely over the countries. In the globalized economic space, the multinational finns accelerate a globalization of capital and labour by exporting the capital to the peripherals countries for the low cost of production and importing the low wage labour from the peripherals countries. East Asia which appeared one of the world triad economic axis with a rapid regional economic growth after 1980's intensifies the regionalisation of capital and labour. As the increase of gap in cost of production and income level among the countries, not only the direction of flows of capital and labour but also the traits of migrant labour also changes remarkably.

The Jinan Basin which includes Maisan locates in the central part of the northern boundary of the Yeongnam Massif. The basement rocks of the Jinan Basin and surrounding area are Precambrian gneiss and Mesozoic granite which were exposed on the surface before Cretaceous. The Jinan Basin, one of the Cretaceous pull-apart basins in South Korea, formed along the Yongdong-Gwangju fault system. Maisan is composed of conglomerate deposited in the eastern slope of the Jinan Basin showing the shape of horse ears and the unusual topography where many tafonies were developed. The strike slip fault that caused the Jinan Basin was connected to the deep depth so that the magma formed at 200 km depth could have extruded on the surface causing active volcanic activity in and around the Jinan basin. As a result, Cheonbansan composed of pyroclastic rocks, Gubongsan consisting of volcanic neck and WoonilamBanilam formed by the lava flow, appear around Maisan forming a specific terrain. After the formation of the Jinan Basin and surrounding volcanic rocks, they uplifted to form mountains including Masian; the uplifting time may be ca. 69-38 Ma. At this time, the Noryeong mountain range may be formed in the regions which extended from Chugaryeong through Muju and Jinan to Hampyeong dividing the Geumgang and Seomjingang water systems. Due to the ecological barrier, the Noryeong mountain range, Coreoleuciscus splendidus living in the Geumgang water systems was differentiated from that in the Soemjingang water system. In addition, the Geumgang and Mangyeong-Dongjingang water systems were separated by the Unjangsan, which developed in the NNW direction. As a result, diverse ecosystem have been established in and around Maisan and at the same time, diverse cultural and historical resources related to Maisan's unique petrological features, were also established. Therefore, Maisan and surrounding area can be regarded as a place where a geotourism can be successfully established by combining the ecological, cultural and historical resources with a geological heritage. Therefore Maisan and surrounding areas have a high possibility to be a National Geopark and UNESCO Global Geopark.
