Meteorological measurements were carried out in the basin of Cheong-Kwan located Yang-San near Pusan city, from Oct. 30 to Nov. 1, 1988. According to the measured data, we vended the close relationship between the variation of nocturnal Inversion layer and the meteorological elements. The nocturnal intrersion layer by radiative cooling in this site extends up to 130 meters or so. And the nocturnal jet ap- pears just above or at the top of the inversion layer, and the stronger of the prevailing wind blows, and the lower of the jet level appears. Some meteorological features such as heating, cooling etc., began to change in or in the slightly higher level of the inversion layer, when they are formed, reinforced and disappeared. And the it In the basin preserves its character because It Is not affected by local scale air flow.

The Kyongsang Basin is the most representative Cretaceous basin in the Korean Peninsula where extensive crustal deformation and non-marine sedimentation took place in the early Cretaceous period. The lithology of the basement of the basin and adjacent areas is comprised of mainly Precambrian gneiss complex and Mesozoic granite intrusions. We have carried out magnetotelluric (MT) surveys to investigate the deep geoelectric structure around the Kyongsang Basin. The MT data were collected in the frequency range from 0.00042 to 320 Hz at 24 sites along a profile across the northern part of Kyongsang Basin. The results of MT inversion show that the thickness of sediments is estimated about 3 km to 9 km and the depth to base of granite intrusion is about 20 km. A remarkable discovery in this study is the highly conductive layer beneath the basin, having the resistivity of 1 ohm-m to 30 ohm-m and the thickness of about 3 km to 4 km or more. Although we are not able to reveal the nature of this layer, the result of this study could provide some basic information with respect to the formation process and deposit environment of the proto-Kyongsang Basin.

The reservoir basin bedrock produced significant impact on the long-term service safety of super-high arch dams. It was important for accurately identifying geomechanical parameters and its evolution process of reservoir basin bedrock. The deformation modulus mechanism research methods of reservoir basin bedrock deformation modulus for super-high arch dams was carried out by finite element numerical calculation of the reservoir basin bedrock deformation and in-situ monitoring data analysis. The deformation modulus inversion principle of reservoir basin bedrock in a wide range was studied. The convergence criteria for determining the calculation range of reservoir basin of super-high arch dams was put forward. The implementation method was proposed for different layers and zones of reservoir basin bedrock. A practical engineering of a super-high arch dam was taken as the example.

The Chungnam basin is a crucial area for studying the Mesozoic crustal evolutionary history of the Korean Peninsula. This study reports the revised geology and new isotopic ages from the northeastern Chungnam Basin based on detailed geological mapping and LA-ICP-MS zircon U-Pb analysis. Our renewed geologic map defines intra-basin, basin-bounding, and basement fault systems closely related to hydrothermal gold-bearing quartz vein injections. Here, we propose the directions of (micro)structural and geochronological future work to address issues on the relationship between the tectonic process, basin evolution, and hydrothermal fluid migration in the southwestern Korean Peninsula.

Numerical prediction of nocturnal thermal high in summer of the 1995 near Taegu city located in a basin has been carried out by a non-hydrostatic numerical model over complex terrain through one-way double nesting technique in the Z following coordinate system. Under the prevailing westerly winds, vertical turbulent fluxes of momentum and heat over mountains for daytime hours are quite strong with a large magnitude of more than $120W/\textrm{m}^2$, but a small one of $5W/\textrm{m}^2$ at the surface of the basin. Convective boundary layer (CBL) is developed with a thickness of about 600m over the ground in the lee side of Mt. Hyungje, and extends to the edge of inland at the interface of land sea in the east. Sensible heat flux near the surface of the top of the mountain is $50W/\textrm{m}^2$, but its flux in the basin is almost zero. Convergence of sensible heat flux occurs from the ground surface toward the atmosphere in the lower layer, causing the layer over the mountain to be warmed up, but no convergance of the flux over the basin results from the significant mixing of air within the CBL. As horizontal transport of sensible heat flux from the top of the mountain toward over the basin results in the continuous accumulation of heat with time, enhancing air temperature at the surface of the basin, especially Taegu city to be higher than $39.3^{\circ}C$. Since latent heat fluxes are $270W/\textrm{m}^2$ near the top of the mountain and $300W/\textrm{m}^2$ along the slope of the mountain and the basin, evaporation of water vapor from the surface of the basin is much higher than one from the mountain and then, horizontal transport of latent heat flux is from the basin toward the mountain, showing relative humidity of 65 to 75% over the mountain to be much greater than 50% to 55% in the basin. At night, sensible heat fluxes have negative values of $-120W/\textrm{m}^2$ along the slope near the top of the mountain and $-50W/\textrm{m}^2$ at the surface of the basin, which indicate gain of heat from the lower atmosphere. Nighttime radiative cooling produces a shallow nocturnal surface inversion layer with a thickness of about 100m, which is much lower than common surface inversion layer, and lifts extremely heated air masses for daytime hours, namely, a warm pool of $34^{\circ}C$ to be isolated over the ground surface in the basin. As heat transfer from the warm pool in the lower atmosphere toward the ground of the basin occurs, the air near the surface of the basin does not much cool down, resulting in the persistence of high temperature at night, called nocturnal thermal high or tropical night. High relative humidity of 75% is found at the surface of the basin under the moderate wind, while slightly low relative humidity of 60% is along the eastern slope of the high mountain, due to adiabatic heating by the srong downslope wind. Air temperature near the surface of the basin with high moisture in the evening does not get lower than that during the day and the high temperature produces nocturnal warming situation.

서태평양에 위치한 총 173개의 지진 관측소에서 획득한 2,026개의 지진 자료에 분할 파형 역산을 적용하여 서태평양 지역 맨틀 전이대 깊이까지 S파 등방성 속도 및 방사 이방성에 대한 연구를 수행했다. 그 결과 필리핀해판의 경우 페러스-벨라 분지(Parece-Vela basin)에서 고속도 이상이 30 km 깊이까지 나타나는 것에 비해 서필리핀 분지(West Philippine basin)에서 고속도 이상이 50 km 깊이까지 유지되었다. 페러스-벨라 분지 하부 약 80 km 깊이부터 나타나는 저속도 이상이 깊이가 깊어짐에 따라 서필리핀 분지로 확장되는 경향을 보였는데 이는 페러스-벨라 분지와 서필리핀 분지 사이의 연령차이에 의한 것으로 보인다. 또한 캐롤라인 해저 산열(Caroline seamount chain) 및 캐롤라인 판의 하부에서 강한 저속도 이상이 약 200 km 깊이까지 보인다. 방사 이방성 모델의 경우 서태평양에서 전반적으로 양의 이방성에 우세하게 나타났으며 페러스-벨라 분지에서 약 50 km 깊이까지, 마리아나 해구를 따라 섭입하는 태평양판의 약 220 km 깊이부터 음의 이방성이 관측되었다. 캐롤라인 해저산열 하부 약 200 km 깊이까지 강한 양의 이방성이 나타났는데 이는 해저산열을 형성한 플룸과 이동하는 태평양판 사이에 발생한 끌림(drag)에 의한 것으로 보인다. 온통-자바 해대(Ontong-Java plateau) 지역 하부에서는 40 ~ 180 km 깊이에서 고속도 이상이 발견되었으며, 이는 탈수된 플룸 물질의 부착으로 인한 비정상적으로 두꺼운 암석권의 존재를 나타낸다.

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.

서해 대륙붕 군산분지 까치-1공의 퇴적층을 통합층서적 접근을 통하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 까치-1공 내에서 (1)트라이아스기 돌로마이트 기반암층, (2) 후기 쥬라기 말-전기 백악기 초 퇴적층, (3) 전기 백악기 퇴적층, (4) 후기 백악기 퇴적층 및 (5) 중기 마이오세 이후 퇴적층 등 5개의 단위층들이 인지되었다. 각 단위층은 부정합에 의해 경계되는 구조층서 단위층으로 군산분지의 형성, 퇴적 및 변형에 대한 정보를 제공해 준다. 후기 쥬라기 말에 들어와 탄루탄층대를 따라 이차 및 삼차 순위의 주향이동 단층들이 분지되면서 소규모 열개 분지들이 형성되기 시작하였다. 전기 백악기 이후 팔레오세 말까지 지속된 분지단층들의 좌수향 이동에 의해 군산분지는 대규모의 인장력을 받게 되어 소규모 열개 분지들은 대규모의 인리형 분지로 확장되었다. 그러나 팔레오세 말에 시작된 인도판과 유라시아판의 연성충돌에 의한 1차 히말라야 조산운동의 영향으로 탄루단층이 우수향으로 이동을 시작하면서 군산분지는 서서히 변형을 받기 시작하였다. 이후 에오세 중기에 일어났던 인도판과 유라시아판의 강성충돌에 의한 2차 히말라야 조산운동에 의해 탄루단층의 우수향 이동이 본격화되면서 군산분지는 극심한 구조역전의 현상이 일어났다. 따라서 에오세 말과 올리고세 동안 군산분지에서는 심한 구조역전에 의한 분지변형이 일어났다. 올리고세 이후 현재까지, 군산분지는 간헐적인 해침과 함께 광역적인 침강을 유지하면서 안정된 대륙 연변부 침강분지로 전이되었다.

Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, is subject to high levels of atmospheric pollution during winter, which severely threatens the health of the population. By analyzing surface meteorological data, ground-based LIDAR data, and radiosonde data collected from 2008 to 2016, we studied seasonal variations in particulate matter (PM) concentration, visibility, relative humidity, temperature inversion layer thickness, and temperature inversion intensity. PM concentrations started to exceed the 24-h average standard ($50{\mu}g/m^3$) in mid-October and peaked from December to January. Visibility showed a significant negative correlation with PM concentration. Relative humidity was within the range of 60-80% when there were high PM concentrations. Both temperature inversion layer thickness and intensity reached maxima in January and showed similar seasonal variations with respect to PM concentration. The monthly average temperature inversion intensity showed a strong positive correlation with the monthly average $PM_{2.5}$ concentration. Furthermore, the temperature inversion layer thickness exceeded 500 m in midwinter and overlaid the weak mixed layer during daytime. Radiative cooling enhanced by the basin-like terrain led to a stable urban atmosphere, which strengthened particulate air pollution.

Tertiary Pohang basin distributed in south weatern part of the korean peninsula, is composed of Chunbuk formation as the basal conglomerate, Hakjon formation, Duho formation and intrusive basalt which is 15 Ma by absolute age data. The basement of the basin is represented by Cretaceous sedimentary rocks, Hakjon welded tuff and Chilpo welded tuff and rhyolite. The fault systems at the basement of the Pohang basin are consist of NNE direction fault, WNW to EW trend fault. NNE fault is not only strike-slip fault but also normal fault. n fault has sinistral strike-slip sene and the EW fault is strike-slip and normal fault. In the Tertiary basin, the fault system is represented by nm strike-slip fault, EW normal fault and NNE thrust fault. By these fault relationships and geometries, it is interpreted that NNE sinistral strike-slip fault and nomal fault have acted at Creceous times. At Tertiary tines, NNE dextralstrike-slip fault and EW normal fault has created. Progressively Tertiary Pohang basin was influenced by the trenspression to make thrust fault and fold, namely as inversion tectonics.
