To classify the surface sedimentary facies using IKONOS image collected over Hwangdo tidal flat in Cheonsu Bay, the optical reflectance was compared for characterizing various sedimentary environments such as grain size, tidal channel pattern and area ratio of surface remnant water. The intertidal DEM (Digital Elevation Model) was generated by echo-sounder for analyzing the relationship between IKONOS image and sedimentary environments including topography. The boundary of the optical reflectance between mud-mixed facies and sand facies was distinct, and discrimination of the associated sandbar feature was also possible. The mud-mixed facies coupled with intricate tidal channels is confined to the relatively hi호 topography of Hwangdo tidal flat. The boundary between mud and mixed flat was indistinct in IKONOS optical reflectance but it would have a difference in the area ratio of surface remnant water. The dark area in the image represented the well developed sand facies having a lot of surface remnant water due to the relatively low surface topography. The overall accuracy of characterizing the surface sediment facies by maximum likelihood classification method was 86.2 %. These results demonstrate that high spatial resolution satellite imagery such as IKONOS coupled with knowledge of grain size, surface remnant water and tidal channel network can be effectively used to characterize the surface sedimentary facies (mud, mixed and sand) network of the tidal flat environments.

This paper classifies the topography of the Saemangeum Tidal flats based on Landsat TM satellite images by unsupervised ISODATA method, and analysis of the spatiotemporal changes of the classified shapes. The sedimental topography represents various properties according to the Saemangeum Tidal Embankment progress. We well proceed this study of the sedimental changes and distributions. By specifying the topographic characteristics of inner sea areas respectively, the investigation on the case study area according to the changes of the tidal will be useful in the establishment of land reclamation plan and the land use of the reclaimed area. In addition, the estuary image can be divided into tidal flats and sea surfaces using the band 4, also the detailed topography using the band 5, respectively among Landsat TM 7 bands. This paper contributes to the efficient image processing of the spatiotemporal sedimental changes.

The change of surface sediment composition, shoreline and transection of geography were studied to investigate the Typhoon(Maemi) effect in Naa Beach located in the south area of East sea. In the backshore the volume of gravel is do creased, and increased in the volume of sand. The erosion in the sediment occurred to 4 m in the thickness and effected to 10 m in depth. And the coastline retreated to 12 m after typhoon. During typhoon conditions, higher amplitude waves deepen the wave base, causing much of the lower beach face and the offshore. The upper beach face is extensively eroded during typhoon and sand sediment is redeposited.

This study introduces an analysis of the quantitative characteristics of topography and topographical changes based on precise 3D topography through 6 times surveys from December 2008 to January 2010 using Terrestrial LIDAR on the Malipo beach. The Malipo sand beach is mostly located between 0m to 1.5m MSL. The area of the beach above 2.25m, the Mean High Water, is very small. It have characteristics of topographical change of erosion and deposition along the entire coast line which more apparently appear in the northern beach than the southern part of the beach. Erosion prevails from spring to autumn, while during winter both erosion and deposition largely occur. Volumes from first and last survey were almost equal.

The purpose of this study is to review research trends and issues of coastal geomorphology in general of Korea, which is divided into two periods; the former and later periods of 1990s when The Korean Geomorphological Society was established. In this study, coastal geomorphology in general refers to the landforms except tidal flats and coastal terraces. The descriptive statistics of research papers published in 5 major geography journals since 1990s were computed and these papers were classified according to their main subjects. The methodology for coastal landform study was analyzed by sub-fields of landform change and sediment analysis. The study of coastal geomorphology in Korea started from around 1970s and has progressed significantly in terms of the scope and the number of papers published since 1990s. There is few paper published in 1990s on coastal geomorphology in general, but so many research has achieved and came to be the major part of coastal geomorphology study since 2000s. Further methodology is necessary for morphodynamics study in the future.

선행 연구들을 통해 미세지형이 유역에서의 유사 유출량에 영향을 끼침을 알 수 있다. 그러나 여전히 유사-유출에 대한 미세지형의 영향이 불분명하여 유역 내 토양 침식 과정에서 미세지형적 거칠기를 고려할 때 혼란이 야기될 수 있다. 따라서, 유사유출량과 토양침식량에 대한 보다 정확한 예측 및 산정을 위해 미세지형이 토양 침식에 미치는 영향을 명확하게 하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 Hairsine-Rose 침식 모형과 동역학파(Dynamic wave) 모형을 사용하여 강우-유출에 따른 미세지형의 유사-유출 과정을 수치적으로 모의하였다. 모의 결과에 따르면, 미세지형은 동일 강우 및 유출 조건에서도 유역 내 유사 유출량을 변화시켰다. 또한, 본 연구의 모의조건 하에서 지반이 비교적 미세토사로 구성된 경우 미세지형이 거칠수록 침식률이 증가하는 반면 지반의 토사가 대부분 굵은 입경을 가질 때는 매끄러운 지형보다 거친 미세지형에서 토양 침식률이 감소함을 확인하였다. 따라서, 지형의 미세지형 변동 정도와 토양침식률 사이에 비례 또는 반비례 관계가 형성됨을 보이고, 이러한 관계를 형성하는 과정에 입경 분포가 미치는 영향을 제시하였다. 마지막으로, 본 연구 결과를 통해 장갑화(armoring) 과정이 입경 분포뿐만 아니라 미세지형의 거칠기에 따라 유역별로 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 유사-유출에 대한 미세지형의 영향을 적절하게 고려하기 위해 부상(Pick-up), 이류 및 퇴적 등 입경 별 퇴적물 이동이 다중 물리적으로 고려되어야 한다는 점을 강조한다. 본 연구를 통해 지표면의 미세지형적 거칠기 및 토양 입경에 대한 정확한 정보가 필요함을 알 수 있으며, 이를 충분히 고려한다면 강우 유출에 의한 토양 침식 메커니즘에 대한 이해도와 토양침식량에 대한 정량적 예측의 정확도가 향상될 것으로 예상된다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze landform characteristics and geomorphic processes in Dokdo seamount. For geomorphic analysis, bathymetry data were collected by multi-beam echosounder and the seismic survey was also conducted. Through the detailed analysis of depth, slope, aspect and erosional landform, Dokdo Seamount is characterized by a flat or gently sloping top of $2^{\circ}$ or less and seamount slope with $14{\sim}40^{\circ}$ gradient. There are protrusion of landform around the Dokdo on top of the Dokdo seamount. It is inferred that the features are formed by collapsed debris deposits or remained bedrocks by differential erosion in the past. The massmovement topography including slump and slide is shown on seamount slope with $14{\sim}40^{\circ}$ gradient. In addition, gullies with various length are developed on the Dokdo seamount slope. Slope erosional processes occur more actively along the submarine gullies on the Dokdo seamount. It is inferred that the massmovement processes on the slope of Dokdo seamount are related to earthquake activities and evolution of submarine volcano. Consequently, slope of the Dokdo seamount has retreated by erosional processes of mass-movement and submarine gullies.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze changes in the depositional landform in the channel of Cha-cheon, a branch stream of Nakdong river(main stream) since the artificial straight channel has been constructed in 1973. The results of analyses are as follow. First, the Cha-cheon has flooded over one time in a year, and flowed backward over three times annually, according to analyze the data of the Hyeonpoong Gauging Station of rainfall and water level during a decade(1993$\sim$2002). Second, the flood plain within the artificial straightened channel has a nearly plain profile between the small dike and last riffle(point A). Deposits thickness of flood plain reduce gradually toward upstream. Third, grain size distribution of the flood plain deposits(0$\sim$20cm) within the artificial straightened channel has a coarsening trend in downstream reach of C point. It implies that the backward flow of Nakdong river(the main stream of Cha-cheon) make effect on the depositional mechanism of lowest reach in Cha-cheon. Finally, the result of analyzing grain size distribution of the flood plain deposits(0$\sim$20cm) within the artificial straightened channel implies that the c-point is the boundary between the vertical deposition of suspended load due to the backward flow of Nakdong river and the deposition of bed load supplied from hillslope of Cha-cheon basin.
