  • This study investigated Quaternary sand deposits in the process of surveying Quaternary deposits distributed in Yonghan-ri, Heunghae-eup, Pohang city. Field geological surveys were conducted and OSL dating samples were taken. The altitude of the Quaternary sand deposits layer is about 15m, and there are two upper and lower sand dune layers, and a peat layer is developed between them. The sampling point are just above the peat layer, and the altitude level is about 13.4m (YHO-1) and about 13.7m (YHO-2). OSL dating was performed for YHO-1 and YHO-2 and the results were 69 ± 6 ka and 62 ± 5 ka, respectively. The date analyzed are interpreted as MIS 4. On the other hand, the formation time of the peat layer at an altitude of about 13.2 to 13.7m can be compared with the results of the OSL dating of the above sandy deposits. The peat layer can be inferred to have formed during MIS 5a or earlier.

  • 韓半島에 분포하는 第四紀 地層들에 대한 기존의 지질학적 연구는 극히 미소한 편이였으며 계곡이나 평야등지에 분포하는 沖積層들이 第四紀 동안의 유일한 地層으로 대표되어 왔다. 따라서 韓半島의 第四紀 地質時代는 그 대부분이 堆積보다는 浸蝕이 우세하였던 시대로 認識되었으며 기존의 지질도들에 의하면 沖積層의 형성시기를 제외한 第四紀는 不整合으로 표시되었다. 이는 韓半島의 지질과 지형이 第四紀 地層이 형성되어 현재까지 殘存해 있을 수 있는 커다란 堆積盆地를 이루지 못한데 있다. 이와 반면에 現 地形의 산록이나 해안주변등에서는 서로 堆積 환경과 時代를 달리하는 第四紀 地層들이 소규모적이나 수직적으로는 良好한 분포를 보이는 지역들을 발견할 수 있다. 그 대표적인 예로서 동해안의 3개지역(북평, 울진, 포항)과 서해안의 고창지역에서는 砂礫이나 砂質粘土등으로 구성되어 있는 第四紀 地層들이 발달하여 있다. 本 地層들의 분포위치, 堆積相 및 古地磁氣 연구로서 地質時代를 규명하였으며 堆積構造와 粘土광물 분석등을 통하여 이들의 古環境을 해석하여 第四紀 동안 韓半島의 地質史를 규명하였다.

  • 한국 서해 경기만 반월조간대 퇴적층(체)의 제 4기 후기 층서가 상부조간대(upper tidal flat)의 퇴적층에서 실시된 심부시추(기반암까지 시추)의 자료에 근거하여 설정되었다 즉, 선캠브리아 변성퇴적암의 기반암위에 선현세 하성-충적층(빙하기의 낮은 해수면 시기)인 Unit II의 층서퇴적단위가 부정합적으로 놓이고 Unit II는 현세 중기-후기(middle-late Holocene)의 상부조간대층(체)인 Unit I에 의하여 부정합적으로 피복된다. 이러한 제 4기 후기 층서는 해양퇴적학으로 분석된 자료에 의하여 설정되었으며, 또한 고기후-고해수면 변동의 고환경적 요건으로 해석되었다.

  • In Korea terrestrial fluvial sequences can be used as pedological and sedimentological markers indicating a millenium-scale environmental and climatic changes imprinted in fluvial sub-environments, which in turn are represented by the cyclicity of fluvial sands, backswamp organic muds, and flooding muds intercalations of frostcracked or dessicated brown paleosols. Post LGM and Holocene fluvial and alluvial sedimentary sequences of Korea are formed in such landscapes of coastal, floodplain, backswamp and hillslope areas. Among them, the most outstanding depositional sequences are fluvial gravels, sands and organic mud deposits in coastal, fluvial, or alluvial wetlands. The aim of this study is to explain the sedimentary sequences and palynofloral zones since the last 15,000years, on the basis of organic muds layers intercalated in fluvial sand deposits. Jangheung-ri site of Nam river, Soro-ri site of Miho river, Youngsan rivermouth site in Muan, Oksan-ri site of Hampyeong and Sanggap-ri site of Gochang are illustrated to interpret their sedimentary facies, radiocarbon datings, and palynofloral zonation. Up to the Middle to Late Last Glacial(up to 30-35Ka), old river-bed, flooding, and backswamp sequences contain such arboreal pollens as Pinus, Abies, and Picea, and rich in non-arboreal pollens like Cyperaceae, Gramineae, Ranunculaceae, and Compositae. During the LGM and post-LGM periods until Younger Dryas, vegetation has changes from the sub-alpine conifer forest(up to about 17-11Ka), through the conifer and broad-leaved deciduous forest, or mixed forest (formed during 16,680-13,010yrB.P), to the deciduous and broad-leaved forest (older than 9,500yrB.P). In the Earliest Holocene flooding deposits, fragments of plant roots are abundant and subjected to intensive pedogenic processes. During Holocene, three arboreal pollen zones are identified in the ascending order of strata; Pinus-Colyus zone(mixed conifer and deciduous broad-leaved forest, about up to 10Ka), Alnus-Quercus forest (the cool temperate deciduous broad-leaved forest, about 10Ka-2Ka), and Pinus forest (the conifer forest, about after 2Ka), as examplified in Soro-ri site of Cheonwon county. The palynological zonations of Soro-ri, Oksan-ri, Sanggap-ri, Youngsan estuary, and Gimhae fluvial plain have been recognized as a provisional correlation tool, and zonations based on fluvial backswamp and flooding deposits shows a similar result with those of previous researchers.
