The achievements of Tateiwa Iwao's work in Korea are assessed as follows. Firstly, he pioneered the practice of stratigraphy in the Korean peninsula and completed geological maps of 21 sheets at 1:50,000 scale. Secondly, he published the results of a geological survey as bulletins, technical reports, and papers. Thirdly, he faithfully carried out the handover of assets and research outputs to Korea. Finally, after returning to Japan, Tateiwa wrote a book entitled The Korea-Japanese Tectonic Zone: History of a Geological Survey in Korea. However, he neglected to educate and train the next geologists for conducting geological surveys and exploration in Korea.

Both Earth science II and Korean geography textbooks emphasize the importance of content related to 'geology of the Korean Peninsula'. This study aimed to analyze the differences in the content related to the 'geology of the Korean Peninsula' presented in the textbooks, and to find out whether these differences are consistent with the latest scientific knowledge in any inconsistencies are found. For this purpose, seven textbooks (four Earth science II and three Korean geography) published under the 2015 revised curriculum were selected as the subject of analysis, and the difference in the description of the tectonic provinces of the Korean Peninsula, geologic time scale, and explanatory texts of geological characteristics between Earth science II and Korean geography textbooks were compared. As a result of the analysis, there are some cases of inconsistencies between Earth science II and Korean geography textbooks in terms of terminologies, names, and distribution ranges related to the tectonic provinces of the Korean Peninsula. The Korean geography textbooks had inconsistencies in the geochronologic data of the rocks as they cited outdated data. In addition, inconsistencies were found in the explanatory texts describing the 'distribution of rocks on the Korean Peninsula', 'characteristics of the Pyeongan Supergroup', and 'great hiatus of the Paleozoic Era'. Both Earth science and Geography have many concepts in common, therefore, effort is needed to minimize the differences in content. It is important to select the content appropriately which should reflect the latest scientific knowledge and presents the concepts consistently.

The modem kinematic behaviors of the rigid block motions are well developed using synthetic analyses of paleomagnetic, petrologic, paleontologic and geophysical data which have been established in the last a quater of a century. Phanerozoic geodynamic evolution and tectonic episodes of the Korean Peninsula and East Asia region are discussed and summarized here.

한반도 주요 지체구조구에 대한 최대지진을 지진 및 지질자료를 이용하여 여러 가지 방법으로 결정하였다. 한반도에서 발생한 가장 큰 지진은 MMI IX - X의 범위에 걸치며 이는 M= 7.0 - 7.7 에 해당한다. Gumbel의 극대치 제3분포를 이용하면 지체구조구별 최대지진은 M = 7.1 - 7.9의 범위에 놓이고, 응력방출 양상을 분석하면 M = 6.7 - 7.7 가 도출된다. 단층길이와 규모와의 상관관계에서 최대지진은 M = 7.4 - 7.6 에 놓인다. 한반도의 주요 지체구조구 사이에 최대지진의 현격한 차이를 나타내는 지진 및 지질학적 증거는 없다. 역사지진의 평가에서 강진들은 대략 1 계급( M=0.7) 과대 평가되는 경향이 있으므로, 한반도의 최대지진은 대략 M = 7.0으로 추정된다.

Geological information on the Korean Peninsula plays a significant role in science education because it provides a basic knowledge foundation for public use and creates an opportunity to learn about the nature of geology as a historical science. In particular, the Mesozoic Era, when the Korean Peninsula experienced a high degree of tectonic activity, is a pivotal period for understanding the geological history of the Korean Peninsula. This study aimed to analyze whether content regarding the geology of the Mesozoic Era are reliably and consistently presented in the 'Geology of the Korean Peninsula' section of Earth Science II textbooks based on the 2015 revised curriculum. Four textbooks for Earth Science II were analyzed, focusing on the sedimentary strata, tectonic movement, and granites of the Mesozoic Era. The analysis items were terms, periods, and rock distribution areas. The consistency within and among textbooks and of textbooks and scientific knowledge was analyzed for each analysis item. Various inconsistencies were found regarding the geological terms, periods, and rock distribution areas of the Mesozoic Era, and suggestions for its improvement were discussed based on these inconsistencies. It is essential to develop educational materials that are consistent with the latest scientific knowledge through collaboration between the scientific and educational communities.

어떤 지역에서 발생가능한 지진동을 확률적으로 예측하기 위해서는 그 지역을 포함한 광범위한 지역의 지진원(seismic source zone)을 정의하지 않으면 안된다. 지진원이란 동일한 지진학적, 지체구조적, 지질학적 양상을 가지는 지역을 의미하며, 지진활동이 지역내에서 균질로 하나의 지진규모 - 발생빈도 관계식에 의해 표현될 수 있는 지역으로 가정된다. 또한 하나의 지진원 내의 지진활동성은 그 지역 전반에 걸쳐 고르게 분포하고 미래의 지진은 그 지역내의 어떠한 곳에서도 발생할 수 있다고 가정된다. (중략)
