한반도 중부에 위치한 대전 지진관측소(TJN) 하부의 세부 지각구조를 밝혀내기 위하여 수신함수를 이용한 선형화된 역산(linearized inversion) 방법을 적용하였다. 본 방법의 비단일해(nonuniqueness)와 초기 모델 의존성의 문제를 해결하기 위해 근사 초기 속도 모델로부터 72개의 서로 다른 초기 모델을 구하여 역산을 수행한 후 결과모델들의 평균 속도 모델을 제시하는 방법을 사용하였다. 역산 결과 총 72개의 모델 중 뚜렷한 지각-맨틀 경계를 보이는 43개의 모델만이 조건에 만족하는 결과를 나타내었다. 모든 모델에서 속도 구조는 전체적으로 깊이에 따라 속도의 불연속면이나 급격한 증가없이 연속적인 변화를 하며, 모호면의 깊이는 30～32.5 km의 범위로 나타났다. 평균적인 하부 지각의 속도는 6.5 km/s, 상부 맨틀의 속도는 7.8 km/s로 뚜렷한 속도 변화를 보였다. 결과 모델 군은 중부지각(mid-crust)에서의 속도를 기준으로 약한 저속도층을 나타내는 군과 상대적으로 일정한 속도를 가지는 군으로 구분되었다. 단지 지진파형의 비교만으로 두 모델군 중 합당한 모델군의 선택은 불가능하였다. 따라서 수신 함수를 이용하여 연구 지역의 신뢰할 만한 지각 구조를 구하기 위해서는 그 지역에 대한 지질학적, 지구물리학적 추가정보와의 동반 해석이 요구된다.

국내 지진관측망에 기록된 지진기록으로부터 관측한 PmP파의 주행시간을 이용하여 한반도 남부지역에서의 지각두께를 추정한다. 모호면으로부터 반사된 파형인 PmP파의 주행시간은 지각두께와 속도구조에 의존한다. 만약 실제 지각의 평균속도와 모델속도 사이의 차이가 작다고 가정하면, 계산한 주행시간과 실제 지진기록으로부터 관측한 주행시간의 상대적인 차이는 반사점에서 지각의 상대적인 두께차이에만 의존한다. 따라서 PmP파가 반사된 지점에서의 지각두께는 주행시간의 상대적인 차이가 표본추출간격보다 작은 값을 가질 때까지 지각두께를 변화시켜줌으로서 계산되어진다. 계산결과 한반도 남부지역에서의 지각두께는 지리산 부근 지역이 가장 두껍고 경상분지 지역이 가장 얇으며 호남지역은 중간 두께를 나타낸다.

A new technique of simultaneons inversion for 3-D seismic velocity structure by using direct, reflected, and refracted waves is applied to the center of the Korean Peninsula including Pyongnam Basin, Kyonggi Massif, Okchon Fold Zone, Taebaeksan Fold Zone, Ryongnam Massif and Kyongsang Basin. Pg, Sg, PmP, SmS, Pn, and Sn arrival times of 32 events with 404 seismic rays are inverted for locations and crustal structure. 5 ($1^{\circ}$ along the latitude)${\times}6$ ($0.5^{\circ}$ along the longitude) ${\times}8$ block (4 km each layer) model was inverted. 3-D seismic crustal velocity tomography including eight sections from the surface to the Moho, eight profiles along latitude and longitude and the Moho depth distribution was determined. The results are as follows: (1) the average velocity and thickness of sediment are 5.15 km/sec and 3-4 km, and the velocity of basement is 6.12 km/sec. (2) the velocities fluctuate strongly in the upper crust, and the velocity distribution of the lower crust under Conrad appears basically horizontal. (3) the average depth of Moho is 29.8 km and velocity is 7.97 km/sec. (4) from the sedimentary depth and velocity, basement thickness and velocity, form of the upper crust, the Moho depth and form of the remarkable crustal velocity differences among Pyongnam Basin, Kyonggi Massif, Okchon Zone, Ryongnam Massif and Kyongsang Basin can be found. (5) The different crustal features of ocean and continent crust are obvious. (6) Some deep index of the Chugaryong Rift Zone can be located from the cross section profiles. (7) We note that there are big anisotropy bodies near north of Seoul and Hongsung in the upper crust, implying that they may be related to the Chugaryong Rift Zone and deep fault systems.

지구물리학적 연구에서 있어서 가장 중요한 목적 중의 하나는 지각과 상부 맨틀의 상세한 구조를 규명하는 것이다. 3성분의 지진기록을 이용하여 관측소 하부의 지각구조를 연구하는 몇 가지 방법들이 개발되었으며, 수신함수분석(receiver function analysis)이 가장 널리 사용되고 있다 (Phinney, 1964: Burdick and Langston, 1977: Owens and Crosson, 1988). 수신함수는 원거리 지진의 P파와 관측소 하부의 Moho면에서 전환된 Ps 전환파를 이용하여 관측소 하부의 지각구조를 계산하는 것이다.

Simultaneous inversion of first-arrivals of local earthquakes recorded by the Korea Meteorological Administration(KMA) seismograph network from 1991 to 1998 is made to derive 1D crustal velocity structure of the Korean peninsula. Twenty-nine events with 178 observations are used in the inversion. Average crustal P-wave velocity turns out to be about 6.3 km/sec, and crustal thickness and upper mantle P-wave velocity are estimated as 33 km and 7.9 km/sec, respectively. Results of inversion indicate the possibility of the low velocity layer in the lower crust. Joint inversion is applied to estimate hypocenters, station delays, and velocities simultaneously. Relative station corrections for 11 stations range from zero to about 1.2 sec. Analysis of the synthetic data shows that estimates of hypocenter locations and station corrections as well as averaged crustal structure are reliable for the given data set..

As part of seismic experiments investigating crustal velocity structures of the Korean peninsula, permanent (fixed) seismographs of the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) network recorded seismic signals from four and eight large explosions in Korean Crustal Research Team (KCRT) profiles shot in 2004 and 2008, respectively. Among the seismograms recorded by 43 velocity sensors and 103 accelerometers at KMA stations distributed throughout the southern Korean Peninsula, 156 records with epicentral distances less than 120 km and high signal-to-noise ratios were analyzed to determine velocity anisotropy of the Pg phase. Relative elevation corrections of -101.6 to 105.3 ms were made using velocity information derived from the 2004 KCRT profile data and differences in elevation between the permanent KMA stations and the temporary stations in the KCRT profiles at the same source-receiver offsets. To remove site effects, receiver-station corrections of -89.6 to 192.2 ms were additionally made to the KMA station data by subtracting the average differences in traveltimes between KMA stations and portable stations at the same offsets for all available shots with different azimuths. With the exception of anomalously fast velocities along trends of the Chugaryeong fault zone and the Okchon fold belt and anomalously slow velocities in the regions of high terrestrial heat near Yeongduk and Ulsan, the analysis of crustal velocity anisotropy using the Pg phase indicates overall isotropy in the southern half of the Korean peninsula.

A new technique of simultaneous inversion for 3-D seismic velocity structure by using direct, reflected, and refracted waves is applied to the southeast part of the Korean Peninsula including Pohang Basin, Kyongsang Basin and Ryongnam Massif. Pg, Sg, PmP, SmS, Pn, and Sn arrival times of 44 events with 554 seismic rays are inverted for locations and crustal structure. $6{\times}6$ with $0.5^{\circ}$ and 8 layers (4 km each layer) model was inverted. 3-D seismic crustal velocity tomography including eight sections from surface to Moho, ten profiles along latitude and longitude are analyzed. The results are as follows: 1) the average velocity and thickness of sediment are 5.04 km/s and 3-4 km, and the velocity of basement is 6.11 km/s. The shape of velocity in shallower layer is agreement with Bouguer gravity anomaly (Cho et al., 1997). 2) the velocities fluctuate strongly in the upper crust. The velocity distribution of the lower crust under Conrad appears basically horizontal. 3) the average depth of Moho is 30.4 km, and velocity is 8.01 km/s. 4) from the velocity and depth of the sediment, the thickness, velocity and form of the upper crust, and the depth and form of Moho, we can find the obvious differences among Ryongnam Massif, Kyongsang Basin and Pohang Basin. 5) the deep faults (a Ulsan series faults) near Kyongju and Pohang areas can be found to be normal and/or thrust faults with detachment extended to the bottom of the upper crust.

Broadband receiver functions are developed from teleseismic P waveforms recorded at Wonju (KSRS), Inchon (IRIS), and Pohang (PHN), and are analyzed to examine the crustal structure beneath the three stations. The teleseismic receiver functions are inverted in the time domain to the vertical P wave velocity structure beneath the stations. Clear P-to-S converted phases from the Moho interface are observed in teleseismic seismograms recorded at the three stations. We estimated the crustal velocity structures beneath the stations using the receiver function inversion. The general features of inversion results are as follows: (1) For Pohang station, there is a high velocity gradient at a 4~5 km deep for SE and NW back azimuth and a low velocity zone at around 10 km deep. The Moho depth is 28 km for NW direction. (2) The shallow crustal structure beneath Wonju station is somewhat complex and there is a high-velocity zone ($V_p{\simeq}6.8km/sec$) at 3 to 4 km deep. The average crustal thickness is 33 km, and a transition zone exists at a 30~33 km deep of lower crust, of which velocity is abruptly changed 6.4 to 7.9 km/sec. (3) For Inchon station, the crustal velocity gradient monotonously increases up to the Moho discontinuity and the velocity is abruptly changed from 6.2 km/sec to 7.9 km/sec at 29 km deep.

The crustal structure of Korean Peninsula is investigated by analyzing phase velocity dispersion data of Rayleigh wave. Earthquakes recorded by three component seismographs during 1999 - 2004 in South Korea are used in this study. The fundamental mode signals of Rayleigh waves are obtained from vertical components of seismograms by multiple filter technique method and phase match filter method. Velocity dispersion curves of surface waves for 14 propagation paths on the great circle are computed from the fundamental mode signals on the great circle path by two-station method. Treating the shear velocity of each layer as an independent parameter, phase velocities of Rayleigh wave are inverted. The result models are regarded as average structure for surface wave propagation paths respectively. All the results can be explained by an earth model of the Korean Peninsula comprising crust of shear-wave velocity increasing from 2.8 to 3.25 km/sec from top to 33 km depth and uppermost mantle of shear-wave velocity between 4.55 and 4.67 km/sec.
