Depths to four seismic sequence boundaries and the thickness of each sequence were estimated and mapped based on multi-channel seismic data in the Ulleung Basin. These depth-structure and isopach maps were incorporated into the interpretation of gravity and magnetic anomaly maps. The sediment thickness ranges from 3,000 m to 4,000 m in the central basin, while it reaches 6,000 m locally along the southwestern, western, and southeastern margins. The acoustic basement forms a northeast-southwest elongated depression deeper than 5000 m, and locally deepens up to 7,500 m in the southwestern and western margins. Low gravity anomalies along the western and southern margins are associated with basement depressions with thick sediment as well as the transitional crust between the continental and oceanic crusts. Higher gravity anomalies, dominant in the central Ulleung basin, broaden from southwest toward northeast, are likely due to the shallow mantle and a dense crust. A pair of magnetic elongations in the southeastern and northwestern margins appear to separate the central Ulleung basin from its margin. These magnetic elongations are largely dominated by intrusive or extrusive volcanics which occurred along the rifted margin of the Ulleung basin formed during the basin opening. The crust in the central Ulleung Basin, surrounded by the magnetic elongations, is possibly oceanic as inferred from the seismic velocity. The oceanic crust can be mapped in the central zone where it widens to 120 km from the southwest toward northeast. Bending of the crustal boundary in the southern part of the Ulleung Basin suggests that the Ulleung Basin has been deformed by a collision of the Phillipine plate into the Japan arc.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Nd:YAG laser on mechanically exposed pulp of dog by the observation of pulpal inflammatory change and heal process including dentinal bridge, structural changes of fibroblasts of thr remaining vital pulp tissue. In experimental group 1, the exposed pulps were irradiated with Nd:YAG laser(3W, 30Hz, 0.2sec) for $2{\sim}3$ second followed by capped with aluminium tin foil. In group 2 and group 3, the exposed pulps were irradiated with Nd:YAG laser via contact(Group 2) and non-contact(Group 3) methods followed by capped with calciumhydroxide paste. The animal were sacrificed at the intervals of 3, 7, 14 and 30days for histologic evaluation. The results were as follows : 1. The dentinal bridges were formwd more fast and broadly in the experimental group 1 and 2 than other groups, but there were no histologic differences in the degree of their formation among control group, experimental group 1. 2. Odontoblastic activities at amputated pulp was increased in the experimental group 2, 3 than other group but there no histologic difference in the odontblastic activitiy among control group, experimental group 1. 3. The infalmmation was severe at the postoperative 1 week of all groups, but its condition subsideed with time elapsed. At the postoperative 3, 7 days, its condition in experimental group 2, 3 were less severe than in the group 1. 4. There were no histologic differences between the experimental group 2 and 3 according to the degree of dentin bridge formation.
