This paper aims to excavate and make storytelling of cultural landforms around Shincheon, Geumho river in Daegu and then to build the strategy for making its application. The main results are as follows. 1) There are main cultural landforms such as Yongdubawi(龍頭岩, river cliff), river cliff, rock shelter(岩蔭), sheeting joint landform, river cave, tor, etc. around Shincheon. 2) there are main cultural landforms such as riverine wetland, ferry, point bar, river cliff, Hwadam(畵潭, pool), Donghwacheon(stream), Mutae(無怠), Chimsan(hill), Yeonamsan(hill), Sanghwadae(river cliff), etc. around Geumho river. 3) It is necessary to excavate and restore cultural landforms around Shincheon and Geumho river for protection, Also the valuable cultural landforms should be designated as cultural assets in order to prevent damage. 4) Considering from application of cultural landforms around Shincheon, natural observation site need to be designed for experiencing culture, history and ecological environment. However, in viewpoint of application of cultural landforms around Geumho river, it is much better to plan a few of Geumho river cultural landform trails for self-guided tour.

This paper deals with the classification and distribution of geomorphic surfaces and analysis on effects of geomorphic processes on the landforms in the inaccessable DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) to Wonsan Bay of East Sea coast of Chugaryeong Rift Valley, Central Korea. DEM (Digital Elevation Model) and Landsat images are used for the above anlaysis. The geomorphic surfaces are classified by TPI (Topographical Position Index) for the analysis of the convexity and concavity calculated using topographical elements such as elevation, steepness, and relief. In the Chugayreong Valley, 10 geomorphic surfaces are classified as steep valley, shallow valley, upland drainage, U-shaped valley, plain, open slope, upper slope, local ridge, midslope ridge, and high ridge. Zonal Statistics presents average characteristics of geomorphological processes of surfaces by the relationships between bedrock and relief, surface and relief, and between surface and NDVI. So, these analysis can help to understand geomorphological process such as dissection of lava plateau and watershed divide evolution.

Minor erosional forms in the bedrock river, like potholes, are not just research subject for the professional geomorphologis. In addition, these features attract general public and make them understand the social contribution and importance of geomorphologic research activities. In this paper, the studies on bedrock minor forms in Korea was reviewed. For further researches, some of major erosional processes and minor forms in bedrock rivers were discussed in detail. Cavitation, plucking, hydro-wedging, and abrasion by passing sediment particles are the major processes to create the longitudinal or transverse minor forms like pothole, furrows, flutes, and runnels. Especially the definition of furrows and runnels are explained to prevent the confusion with pothole, weathering pits and grooves. To make a progress in research on bedrock minor forms the quantitative relationship between the variables should be studied. New techniques for scientific estimation of erosion rates and exposure ages of bedrock surfaces should be used in this field.

Recently, ten geosites have been considered in Hwaseong for endorsement as national geoparks, including the Jebudo, Gojeongri Dinosaur Egg Fossils, and Ueumdo geosites. The Jebudo geosite in the southern part of the Seoul metropolitan area has great potential for development as a new geoscience educational site because it has geological, geographical (landscape), and ecological significance. In this study, we described the geological characteristics through field surveys in the Jebudo geosite. We evaluated its potential as a geo-education site based on comparative analysis with other geosites in Hwaseong Geopark. In addition, we reviewed the practical effect of field education at geosites on the essential concepts and critical competence-oriented education emphasized in the current 2015 revised science curriculum. The Jebudo Geosite is geologically diverse, with various metamorphic rocks belonging to the Precambrian Seosan Group, such as quartzite, schist, and phyllite. Various geological structures, such as clastic dikes, faults, joints, foliation, and schistosity have also been recorded. Moreover, coastal geological features have been observed, including depositional landforms (gravel and sand beaches, dunes, and mudflats), sedimentary structures (ripples), erosional landforms (sea cliffs, sea caves, and sea stacks), and sea parting. The Jebudo geosite has considerable value as a new geo-education site with geological and geomorphological distinction from the Gojeongri Dinosaur Egg Fossils and Ueumdo geosites. The Jebudo geosite also has opportunities for geo-education and geo-tourism, such as mudflat experiences and infrastructures, such as coastal trails and viewing points. This geosite can help develop diverse geo-education programs that improve key competencies in the science curriculum, such as critical thinking, inquiry, and problem-solving. Furthermore, by conducting optimized geo-education focused on the characteristics of each geosite, the following can be established: (1) the expansion of learning space from school to geopark, (2) the improvement of understanding of specific content elements and linkage between essential concepts, and (3) the extension of the education scope throughout the earth system. There will be positive impacts on communication, participation, and lifelong learning skills through geopark education.

There are many traditional natural heritages, so-called Dongcheon-gugok, in the Sobaek mountainous region ranged from Sangju city to Mungyeong city. Because Yongyu-dong has the beautiful scenery, well conserved, and many related documents, making amusing storytelling is allowed. Therefore, this study is to construct the storytelling by putting together the geomorphological explanation of topographical landscape and travel writing or poetry and prose by ancient people. The main themes of storytelling are the sculpture of the letter, gutters and pot holes on the broad and flat rock, and the arguments of the forming processes of Yong-choo. I expect this storytelling to help understanding and symphasizing the traditional natural heritages.

After the notorious Taean Oil spill in Dec. 2007, a series of sand fences made of fishing net were installed in front of foredune in Shindu dune area. This paper aims to understand the temporal and spatial characteristics of morphological changes of the beach and foredune. About 1m high sand accumulated around sand fences for the last 2 years. While a lot of sand deposited during the winter season (from autumn to spring), small amount of sand eroded and deposited during summer season (from spring to autumn) without big morphological changes. These results mean that sand fences help nature deposit sand near beach and foredune area.

This study is to describe morphological linear anomalies manifested in the geomorphological landscapes of Woongcheon river-basin, situated in the western ends of Charyong Mountainous Range, and to elucidate their morphotectonic significance. The order of decreasing valley scale in the study area is NE-SW, NNE-SSW, NNW-SSE, N-S, and E-W series. The valleys of NE-SW lineament appear as the largest in the study area, having piedmont slope, terraces, low-relif hills. NNE-SSW lineament cross obliquely the geomorphological elements of the precedent lineament. NNW-SSE, N-S and E-W lineament cut the forms of higher orders showing NE-SW and NNE-SSW lineament. Scale of the linear valleys is not correlated with the order of streams. It is paradoxal that great valleys are not associated with the rivers of highest order. It owes to adaption of regional discharge system along the valleys exploiting the fracture resulted from succeeding tectonic accidents.

In the macro-tide open coast of the Korean western coast, typhoon effects were investigated in terms of variations on topography, surface sediment, and sedimentary environment, which appeared before and after the typhoon Kompasu of 2010. The Kompasu of small size and strong intensity landed on the southwestern coast of the Korean Peninsula and passed across the inland between September 1st and 2nd in 2010. Topography and surface sediments before and after the typhoon were measured and sampled along the survey line of 22 sites in the Gochang Donghori intertidal flat. The intertidal area was divided into high tidal zone, middle tidal zone, and lower tidal zone on the basis of mean high water level, mean sea level, and mean low water level. Topographic variation before and after the typhoon represented deposition of average 0.03 m in high tidal zone, erosion of average -0.15 m in middle tidal zone, and erosion of average -0.39 m in lower tidal zone, respectively. Surface sediments of the intertidal flat consisted mainly of fine to medium sands, and the ratio of fine sand was the largest both before and after the typhoon. Surface sediments after the typhoon became finer in mean grain size showing well sorting rather than those before the typhoon.

This research aimed to analyse geomorphic resources of Mt. palgong(in Daegu city and Gyeongbuk province) through some field surveys, and then to clarify geomorphic features. The main results are as follows. 1) The geological boundary of the south slope(granite) is more clear than one of the north slope(granite bedrock and metamorphic sedimentary rock). Small basins are along with fault line between granite bedrock and metamorphic sedimentary rock. 2) It is estimated that relatively big valleys on the north slope are due to local climate, geomorphic and geological features. 3) Tor, sheeting joint, gutter are well developed both on the south slope and on the north slope, however the development of polygonal cracking and boulder stream are more dominant on the south slope; river cliff, pool, waterfall are more dominant on the north slope with valleys that well developed. 4) Scenic geomorphic landscapes are mainly developed in Dongsan valley and Chisan valley on the north slope. 5) There are many interesting geomorphic resources in the viewpoint of storytelling in Mt. Palgong. So the specific design to utilize such resources is required
