This study investigates a neotectonic context of the past 5 Ma for the Otway Ranges along the southern Victoria coast, SE Australia by evaluating the distribution and development of marine terraces along the mountainous coastal area. Uplift rate derived from low terrace deposits using OSL dating method is determined to evaluate the extent to which mild intraplate tectonism has the capability to influence the geomorphic evolution of continental interiors. This study also investigates the stratigraphic relationship between Quaternary marine terraces and Pliocene strandlines, which suggests a change of tectonic activity in the Late Neogene. The intensified tectonic response is well addressed in terms of an increase of the Australian intraplate stress level due to the change of relative motion and increased forces in the boundary between the Australian and Pacific plate.

Low-field anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) was measured with 247 samples from 17 sites of Pre-Cambrian anorthositic rocks in the Hadong-Sanchong area, southwestern part of the Ryongnam Block. Tectonic stress-direction is defined by the minimum susceptibility (k3) direction, and flow-direction by the maximum susceptibility (k1) direction. Five sites rendered self-consistent NW-SE site-mean tectonic stress-direction. Even though a general fold test for every site was not possible due to the homoclinal nature of the bedding attitudes, a site with various bedding attitudes shows far better clustering of the k3-direction before the bedding-tilt correction. The in-situ NW-SE tectonic stress-direction is consistent over the study area and compatible with petrographic foliation observed in metamorphic rocks in and arround the study area, suggesting a regional compressive force acted after the emplacement of the anorthositic rocks. On the other hand, flow-directions obtained from six sites varies from site to site. Strong-field IRM experiments show predominance of titanomagnetites over a small amount of hematite in some samples.

The Earth's surface deforms vertically in response to a variety of sources relating to lithospheric and sub-lithospheric processes, and distinguishing the continental mechanisms for vertical motions of the lithosphere remains a fundamental challenge in geosciences. A key prerequisite to the challenge is documentation of the temporal and spatial pattern of vertical motions in different tectonic settings. This study is aimed at elucidating the geodynamic factors that can contribute to vertical motions of the Earth's surface in intraplate continental settings including the Neogene uplift in the Korean peninsula based on numerous recent achievements in relevant fields. Ultimately, deciphering the interplay between the Earth's surface and the Earth's interior processes leads us to the notion of "the importance of geomorphic landscape" as a prism to view the dynamics of the Earth's inside.

자연재해위험지구란 자연재해로부터 안전하지 못하여 국민의 생명과 재산에 피해를 줄 수 있는 지역과 자연재해의 피해를 저감할 수 있는 시설을 포함한 주변지역으로서 자연재해대책법 제12조의 규정에 의하여 지정된 지구를 말한다. 자연재해대책법에 따라 시장 군수 구청장은 상습침수지역 산사태위험지역 등 지형적인 여건 등으로 인하여 재해가 발생할 우려가 있는 지역에 대하여는 자연재해위험지구로 지정 고시한다. 2010년에 특별 재고시 되어진 재해위험지구 지정현황을 비롯하여 최근 지정해제 등 변경사항을 고려하여 총 683개(2011년 현재)의 지구를 대상으로 조사한 결과, 침수위험지구는 401개(전체의 59%), 붕괴위험지구는 128개(전체의 19%), 유실위험지구는 98개(전체의 14%), 취약방재위험지구는 28개(전체의 4%), 고립위험지구는 18개(전체의 3%), 해일위험지구는 10개(전체의 1%)로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서는 2010년 특별 재고시된 자연재해위험지구(침수위험지구)의 2011년도 현황을 바탕으로 기 지정된 재해위험지구에 대한 대규모 하천정비 및 기후변화에 따른 침수위험의 변화영향을 검토하였다. 이는 대규모 하천정비 및 기후변화에 따른 기존의 침수영향변화를 복합적으로 검토하여 한강, 낙동강, 금강, 영산강 수계 자연재해위험지구(침수위험지구)의 복합 영향의 범위를 분석하였다.
