  • Structural inversion refers to the reverse reactivation of extensional faults that influence basin shortening accommodated by contractional faults or folds. On the Korean peninsula, Miocene inversion structures have been found, but the Cretaceous rocks on Geoje Island may have undergone inversion as early as the Upper Cretaceous. To evaluate the structural inversion on Geoje Island, located on the eastern side of South Korea, and to determine the effects of preexisting weakness zones, field-based geometric and kinematic analyses of faults were performed. The lithology of Geoje Island is dominated by hornfelsified shale, siltstone, and sandstone in the Upper-Cretaceous Seongpori formation. NE and NW-oblique normal faults, conjugate strike-slip (NW-sinistral transpressional and E-W-dextral transtensional) faults, and NE-dextral transpressional faults are the most prominent structural features in Geoje Island. Structural inversion on Geoje Island was evidenced by the sinistral and dextral transpressional reactivation of the NW and NE-trending oblique normal faults respectively, under WNW-ESE/NW-SE compression, which was the orientation of the compressive stress during the Late Cretaceous to Early Cenozoic.

  • The status of Pinworm (Enterobius vermicularis) egg positive rate of Primary school children in Geoje island was investigated by using adhesive cellotape anal swap method, in September, 2002. Total egg positive rates of E. vermicularis were 9.8% (74/754) and those of male and female were 10.8% and 8.7%, respectively. Among three schools examined, Myeongsa primary school showed the highest egg positive rate (12.6%) followed by Yeoncho [9.8% (26/266)] and Geoje[9.1% (35/385)]. As for the age groups, the 2nd grade had the highest egg positive rate (15.3%), whereas the 5th grade showed the lowest egg positive rate (2.6%). The above result led us to confirm that the egg positive rates of E. vermicularis in primary school children in Geoje island were not significantly different from the those in the whole country including urban and rural areas, showing more than 10%.

  • Kinematic analyses of magmatic intrusions and faults can provide useful information on stress conditions and chronological relationships between dike emplacement and brittle deformation events. We studied structures in rocks exposed on a coastal platform in Geoje Island off the southern Korean Peninsula because of its well-developed dikes and faults. The geology of the study area includes the Cretaceous Seongpo-ri Formation, which is composed mostly of shale, sandstone, and hornfels intruded by magmatic dikes. Most of the dikes are developed along pre-existing structural features (faults and fractures), indicating that their emplacements were structurally controlled. Because dikes commonly open along the direction of the minimum principal stress, the direction of this stress can be obtained from dike geometry and orientation through the matching of piercing points on either side of a dike. In addition, the deformed dikes can give information regarding later deformation. On the basis of the kinematic analyses, we identified five deformation events in the study area, which are kinematically related to changes of the regional maximum principal stress. Results indicate that the structures in the study area have been controlled predominantly by episodes of reactivation of the NNE-trending Yangsan strike-slip fault, located to the northeast of the study area, under different stress regimes. In a wider tectonic context, the brittle deformation of the rocks of Geoje Island was probably induced by interactions among the Philippine Sea, Pacific, and Eurasian plates, including changes in subduction parameters with respect to the latter two plates over time.

  • Distributional characteristics of dinoflagellate cysts in surface sediments were investigated in relation to environmental factors in the eastern part of Geoje Island, Korea. Samples were collected from 10 stations in February of 2004 and water temperature and salinity were measured in February, May, September and November of 2004. Total 30 taxa of dinoflagellate cysts were identified representing 19 genera, 28 species and 2 unidentified species. Among these dinoflagellate cysts, Brigantedinium spp. of which relative proportion in th e total dinoflagellate cysts was 23.5%, was the most abundant at all stations except St. 1, and was followed by Spiniferites bulloideus (8.6%), Lingulodinium machaerophorum (8.2%) and Diplopsalis lenticula (6.7%). In addition, ellipsoidal cysts of the genus Alexandrium (Alexandrium catenella - tamarense type) and Gymnodinium catenatum, known to be causative organisms for PSP, occurred with high concentrations. Scrippsiella trochoidea was also found; however, its cyst concentration was low. Generally, species composition in the study area was similar to these reported from Jinhae Bay and Busan Harbor and several dinoflagellate cysts reflected the eutrophic condition. Cyst distribution in th e eastern part of Geoje Island seems to be influenced by the Tsushima Warm Current flowing from the southwest. The mean water temperature was $12.0^{\circ}C$ in February, $14.7^{\circ}C$ in May, $20.9^{\circ}C$ in September and $17.2^{\circ}C$ in November, which was most favorable for Alexandrium spp. growth. The abundances of dinoflagellate cysts rang e d from 528 to 2,834 cysts/g dry sediment. Higher concentrations were recognized in sediments of west area of the Jisimdo than at other stations. The cyst composition of this area was closely related to these of Jinhae Bay and Busan Harbor from which currents flow into this area. Higher cyst concentration in the west area of Jisimdo might be due to formation of the gyre.

  • 현장시추코어를 이용한 역학적, 수리학적 분석을 수행하여 거제지역 화강암체의 공학적 특성을 산정하였다. 코어분석시에 현장응력의 영향이 고려될 수 없어서 암반불류에 의거하여 산정된 공학적 성질들이 현장실험결과와 상이하게 도출되기도 하였다. 암반분류, 공내실험 및 실내실험 결과에 근거하여 지하공동 설계에 대한 경험적 계수들을 산정하였다. 거제도 남단에 분포하는 화강암체의 경우, 비록 균열대가 존재하지만, 상당히 양호한 암반상태를 나타내고 있으며, 대규모 지하시설도 용이하게 건설될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • 본 연구는 거제시의 마을 이름 중에 그 명명 기반이나 유래가 자연환경, 즉 자연지리적 요소에 있다고 믿어지는 것을 가려낸 다음, 그 속에 담긴 의의를 고찰한 것이다. 거제시의 마을 이름 중에는 해당마을 일대의 특징 있는 지형 기상 토양 등을 명명기반으로 한 사례가 적지 않다. 특히 급사면의 산지가 넓고, 리아스식 해안이 발달한 거제도의 지형 특징이 뚜렷하게 반영되어 있다. 기상(기후)와 토양과 관련된 것으로 추정되는 관련 마을 이름도 여럿이어서 관심을 끈다. 자연지리적 특성이 부각된 마을 이름은 그 자체만으로도 의미가 있으며, 명명 주체인 주민들의 환경지각, 자연환경의 역사적 변천 등과 관련된 연구 자료로도 활용할 수 있다.

  • 본 연구는 최근 지리학에서 많이 이용되고 있는 GIS를 지형분석에 적응하기 위하여 한반도의 남해안에 위치하는 거제도를 해상으로 지형 및 하계망의 특성 및 지질과 지형, 지질과 하계망, 지형과 하계망과의 관련성을 GIS를 이용하여 분석한 것으로 상용 Data인 DTED와 지형도상의 Data를 같이 사용하고 이를 비교하여 봄으로써 장차 지형분석에 GIS의 이용 가능성과 DTED를 이용한 지형 및 하계분석의 가능성을 평가하고자 한다. 거제도의 자연 환경을 지형도 Data와 DTED를 이용 GIS Tool로 분석하여 그 결과를 비교한 결과 GIS Tool로 지형분석에는 문제가 없었으나 GIS자체가 지형분석을 위해 만들어진 Tool이 아니기 때문에 방법상의 문제가 제기되었다. 또한 지형도상의 Data와 DTED의 분석결과를 비교한 결과 DTED가 지형도 Data에 비해 정밀도가 떨어지고 좌표상의 오차가 발생하였다. 이러한 문제가 있기는 하나 접근이 불가능한 지역이나 넓은 지역을 대상으로 한 분석에서는 DTED가 유용한 자료로 사용될 수 있다.

  • In order to provide the basic data required for setting up the proper strategies to minimize the future marine pollution in the vicinity sea area of the Geoje Island, the general water quality parameters and dye diffusion experiment were carried out from January to March, 1983. Although TSS and COD level in the investigated sea area showed still slightly lower than the area of Seaside Industrial Complex Zones, seriously increasing due to the construction of heavy industrial plants. Dissolved oxygen showed more than 8 ppm, and inferred still enough for the reservation of the investigated sea area. The dye patches moved south-eastward with forming an elliptical shape and then turned slowly to the area of Kujora during flood tide, and it moved northwestward and then blocked the entrance of Jangseungpo during ebb tide, The diffusibility in the area may be assessed to be quite better than other coastal areas.
