우리가 사는 지구 내부에서 만물을 순식간에 녹여버릴 듯한 불덩이가 솟구치는데, 그것을 화산이라고 한다. 화산이라는 용어인 volcano는 '불의 신'이라 불리는 'vulcan'에서 유래되었다. 즉, 이 '불의 신'이 끓어오르는 '화기(火氣)'를 주체하지 못할 때 화산활동은 시작되는 것이다. 화산활동이 일어나는 지역의 원시부족들은 불을 내뿜는 화산을 '신의 분노' 혹은 '신의 저주'라고 해석한다.

This study aims to investigate the characteristics and to classify the foreign volcanic disaster maps. Authors try to extract the components of volcanic disaster maps and apply them to the Mt. Baekdu volcano that receives worldwide attention recently has been on an early stage in Korea. Internationally, volcano ash disaster maps are derived and reviewed through three analytical framework components: Hazard Map, Risk Map, and Damage Map. These derived components of volcano ash disaster mapping systems are: 1) cumulative map of past disaster records, 2) probabilistic risk map, 3) scenario-based map and case-by-case utilization maps (evacuation response type, emergency information type, disaster preparedness education type) based on this components are presented.

Volcano hazard mapping became a focus of scientific inquiry in the 1960s. Dwight Crandell and Don Mullineaux pioneered the geologic history approach with the concept of the past is the key to the future, to hazard mapping. The 1978 publication of the Mount St. Helens hazards assessment and forecast of an eruption in the near future, followed by the large eruption in 1980 demonstrated the utility of volcano hazards assessments and triggered huge growth in this area of volcano science. Numerical models of hazardous processes began to be developed and used for identifying hazardous areas in 1980s and have proliferated since the late 1990s. Model outputs are most useful and accurate when they are constrained by geological knowledge of the volcano. Volcanic Hazard maps can be broadly categorized into those that portray long-term unconditional volcanic hazards-maps showing all areas with some degree of hazard and those that are developed during an unrest or eruption crisis and take into account current monitoring, observation, and forecast information.

In this study, the variations of geoid measured by GRACE satellite are investigated in the 20 volcanic areas erupted since 2005, and it is recognized that a detailed geological study is necessary in using geoid data for a research of the magmatic activities under the volcano. Therefore, the relationship between the regional geoid variation obtained by GRACE satellite and the change of magma activity, is studied in Japan's Shinmoedake volcano in the Kirishima volcanic complex whose eruption in 2011 was studied in detail geologically. Throughout this study the increase of geoid from 2002 in the Shinmoedake volcanic area is confirmed to be caused by the increase of gravity under the volcano, which is well matched with geological interpretation of the continuous intrusion of basaltic magma into magma chamber during several years before the 2011 eruption. The result indicates that information of the geoid variation measured by GRACE satellite is useful for monitoring the possibility of volcanic eruption although there is a need to more study to be able to confirm the possibility.

동굴은 그가 위치하는 주위환경에 따라 그 특성이 달리 나타난다. 석회암지역에서 석회동굴이 형성되고 화산지역에서 용암동굴이 형성되듯이 달리 나타난다. 더구나 석회동굴은 지질구조와 밀접하게 관계되고 있는데 지질구조선에 따라 동굴은 발달한다.(중략)

Tephrochronology is the study of tephra layers to correlate and date geologic events. As tephra layers can be used as time-markers, they are essential for the dating of Quaternary deposits. In this study, two types of tephra layers were found in the upper and lower parts of marine terrace deposits distributed in the Sanha-dong and Jeongja-dong, Ulsan areas. Based on the morphological features of glass shards, refractive indices, major element compositions, and similarity coefficients, the upper and lower tephras were identified as AT (ca. 25 ka) and Ata (ca. 105-110 ka) tephra, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first official report of Ata tephra on terrestrial deposits in Korea. These results are expected to aidin the research of the Quaternary paleoclimate, paleoenvironment, and active faults in the southeastern part of Korea.

량강도 북부지역에서는 지질시대로부터 현대에 이르기까지 여러차례의 화산활동이 있어 자연경관을 훼멸, 복구하였다. 특히 갱신세에 분출된 현무암용암, 백두산 소백산에서의 알칼리성조면암의 발생, 800여년전에 분출한 부석은 원래의 자연경관을 훼멸,매몰하고 새로운 자연경관을 형성하기 시작하였다. 자연경관 형성에서 지질,지형,기후,식생,토양 등요소들이 종합적으로 작용하나 그중에서도 화산활동을 위주로한 지질작용이 주되는 인자로 되었다. 즉 용암의 분출에 의하여 본 지구의 지형을 1600m 높여 기후,식생,토양의 산지수직지대성을 형성하였고 강,호수의 형성도 식생,토양의 특성도 화산활동의 제한을 받았다. 모두어 말하면 본 지역의 자연경관은 800 여년 역사를 갖고 지금도 발전, 성숙과정에 있다. 본문에서는 백두산과 가까이 자리잡고 있는 량강도의 삼지연군, 대홍단군, 백암군, 보천군, 운훈군, 갑산군과 함경북도의 무산군, 연사군, 어랑군, 길주군의 일부지역 및 함경남도의 단천서북부가 포함된다. 지리위치로 보면 동경 128 도 16 분으로부터 동경 130 도 02 분까지이고 북위 42 도 10 분부터 북위 41 도 좌우이다.

The Cretaceous Yucheon Group is volcano-sedimentary successions that are formed by volcanic activities of the Gyeongsang Volcanic Arc. Lack of the detailed field researches on the Yucheon Group results in poor understanding of the formation time and the tempo-spatial development of the volcanic arc. Also, this causes difficulties to reconstruct the depositional history from the Sindong and Hayang groups to the Yucheon Group. In this study, we conducted field research targeting to the interface between topmost part of the Hayang Group and the lowermost part of the Yucheon Group from Hyeonpoong to Bugok areas. We also identified depositional timing of the lowermost part of the Yucheon Group using SHRIMP U-Pb zircon age dating. This Yucheon Group is composed of tuff and lapilli tuff, conformably overlying the Jindong Formation. The results of SHRIMP U-Pb zircon age are 97 to 96 Ma, indicating cessation of deposition of the Hayang Group at 97 to 96 Ma by input of pyroclastic materials into the Jinju Subbasin during the explosive volcanic eruptions from the Gyeongsang Volcanic Arc. In comparison with field researches and results of LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb age dating (88-85 Ma) of the lowermost part of the Yucheon Group in Gyeongju areas, the volcanic activities that formed Yucheon Group and their influence ranges varied tempo-spatially. This is probably due to distance difference from the volcanic arc or establishment of the paleo-drainage system from the Gyeongsang Volcanic Arc to nearby lowlands.
