This study was carried out to examine the optimal road spacing and road density to minimize the total harvesting cost(road construction cost plus yarding cost) for mechanized yarding system to roadside by one - and two-stage two-way in Forestry build-up region. Chunchon-kun, Kangwon-do. The estimated road construction costs were ranged from ten million won to sixty million won per km. The results have indicated that cable crane was appropriate for yarding machine by one-stage, two-way, and estimated optimal road spacing was 1,698m~4,192m, averaged 3,087m, and road density was 3.44m/ha~8.44m/ha, and averaged 5. 12m/ha. In hilly terrain, combination of medium yarder and Logging bogie was suited to yarding machine by two-stage, two-way, and calculated optimal road spacing was 1,483m~3,481m, averaged 2,589m, and road density was 4.05m/ha~9.46m/ha, averaged 5.90m/ha. In steep terrain, combination of medium yarder and jinsung winch was suited, and estimated optimal road spacing was 1,693m~3,982m, averaged 2,960m, and road density was 3.68m/ha~8.64m/ha, averaged 5.38m/ha.

The uncemented breccia consisted of conglomerate and breccia, which are not originated from volcanic clastics, shows wide variation of engineering properties depending on the characteristics of matrix of the uncemented breccia. These uncemented breccia have breccia and matrix irregularly distributed according to their depth and position. Clay minerals are also included in the matrix of these uncemented breccia, so they are expected to show expansive behavior and weakness against weathering process. In this study, the volumetric ratio of breccia on the cores had been calculated using digital image processing technique (performed on recovered core box and their sections). The 3-axial compressional strength test had been done with a shaping of rapid cooling method, and the shear strength (c, ${\phi}$) of uncemented breccia due to the breccia content had been calculated by applying BIMROCK model curve suggested by Goodman. A reliable analysis on the engineering properties of uncemented breccia had been also possible by using borehole density logging and borehole loading test for the accurate determination of the unit weight and the deformation constants deformation modulus.

Single beam echo sounding was used to delineate bathymetry sea bottom in the area of hydrography and marine navigation. This research was aimed at measuring the thickness of floating silty clay sediment with dual frequencies echo sounding system. There occur discrepancies in penetrating depth through sea beds between high frequency(200 KHz) and low(33 KHz) frequency. RI density logging was employed to characterize the floating silty clay sediment of Guangyang bay, which was chosen to investigate the proposed site for reclamation field. The volume of floating silty clay sediment was used to design by estimating size of reclamation site. The estimation strategies developed in this study will be readily applicable to measure the Pattern of sedimentation via regular hydrographic survey in the future.

A combination of drilling, hydrogeochemical survey, geophysical survey and the numerical modelling for the flow and transport of groundwater was performed to evaluate the seawater intrusion in Baeksu-eup, Yeonggwang-gun, Korea. The survey area extends to over 24 $km^2$. Twelve wells were also drilled for the collection of geologic, geochemical, hydrologic, and geophysical logging data to delineate the degree and vertical extent of seawater intrusion. To evaluate and map the salinity in a coastal aquifer, geophysical data and hydrogeochemical results were used. Layer parameters derived from VES data, various in situ physical properties from geophysical well loggings, and the estimated equivalent NaCl concentration were used as the useful input parameters for the numerical simulation with density-dependent flow. Our multidisciplinary approach for evaluating the seawater intrusion can be considered as a valuable attempt to enhancing the utilization of various data and the reliability of numerical ground modelling.

A seismic refraction study in estimation of depth to the bedrock demonstrates that 1) the average velocity in the medium is about 250 m/s in the surface layer (< 4 m), 2,500 m/s in the weathered formation, and greater than 3,000 m/s in the bedrock, 2) the depth to the deepest reflector assumed to be the bedrock is about 17 m; however, according to the cores collected in a borehole in study area, the bedrock (granite) occurred at depth 25 m, 3) according to the density and velocity logging, at depth 17 m, a measurable velocity and density increase are observed, and 4) the velocity of the weathered formation is relatively high and therefore, the acquisition offsets ($70{\sim}80m$) are turned out not to be long enough to record the refracted signal from the bedrock at depth 25 m as first arrivals.

This study addressed soil disturbances following harvesting as well as soil physical and hydrological properties within three first-order headwater catchments characterized by ephemeral-intermittent streams. Four treatments representing a range of potential Best Management Practices(BMPs) for ephemeral-intermittent streams were used; BMP1, BMP2, clearcut and reference. This study includes 1 year of pre- and post-harvest observations. Results showed that post-harvest disturbances were closely related with harvesting intensity and generally tended to reflect changes in soil physical and hydrological properties following harvest with the except of bulk density and porosity. Forest clearcutting decreased macroporosity and saturated hydraulic conductivity, and increased soil resistence as a result of severe soil disturbances thereby increasing soil erosion. These impacts were reduced by implementing two BMP treatments during harvesting activities. The finding support the use of either BMP treatments for ephemeral-intermittent streams, however, the additional measure of leaving logging debris in BMP2 did not cover enough soil surface to reduce erosion.

In this study, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) were conducted to find the mineralized zone at the Geumpung mine in Dojeon-ri, Susan-myeon, Jecheon-si, Chungcheongbuk-do. The deviation of the inclined borehole was measured to obtain the exact positions of the electrodes for correcting apparent resistivity values from ERT. Geophysical loggings such as resistivity and natural gamma were conducted to obtain the properties of the material near the borehole. Measurements of the physical properties of the cores, such as porosity, water content, density, susceptibility, resistivity were performed to analyze the correlation between physical properties and resistivity. Grade analysis for core sample was also conducted to identify relationship between grade and resistivity. Rock property analysis shows that the resistivity is more dominated by susceptibility and grade than by porosity and water content in the mineralized zone. The results of ERT are well consistent with geophysical logging data and geologic column. So ERT is powerful method to identify conductive mineralized zone.

As a preliminary study to establish fracture network model in crystalline rocks, detail investigation on fracture characteristics were performed. Five fracture sets were determined on the basis of regional survey of geological structures and fractures on outcrops. Among the fracture sets, S1 set has the highest density and longest trace length of fractures which was identified on surface in the study area. S4 and S5 sets are composed of foliations and foliation parallel shear joints of gneisses, which are very important sets at the aspect of weighting of fracture length. For characterization of subsurface fractures, detail core logging was performed to identify fractures and fracture zones from five boreholes. Acoustic televiewer logging and borehole geophysical loggings produced images, orientations and geophysical properties of fractures which intersect with boreholes. According to the result of the investigations, subsurface fractures can be grouped as three preferred orientations(B1, B2 and B3), which correspond to S1, S2 and S4/S5 of surface fracture sets, respectively. Actually, B1 set is expected to be intensely developed at subsurface. However, it has low frequency of intersection with boreholes due to its parallel or sub-parallel direction to boreholes. According to the inference of conductive fractures, B1 and B3 sets have possibilities of water flow and their intersection lines are also thought to consist of important conduits of groundwater flow. In particular, faults which are parallel to foliations control major groundwater flow in the study area.

Suite of log analysis techniques consisting of geophysical well log, geological core log, and physical core log have been made to understand the well log responses and to determine the lithology of a test borehole-PABH1 located in Pungam sedimentary basin, Sosok, Hongchon-gun, Kangwon Province. Geological core logging has been precisely made over the cores taken between 64 and 124 meters, and 11 groups of rock types were deduced. Using the core samples divided by 11 groups, geophysical property measurements consisting of resistivity, natural gamma and density were made. Each rock group in the area is shown to have its characteristic physical response from geophysical well log and geophysical core logs. The outstanding physical responses particularly shown from siltstone, coarse sandstone to conglomerate, and granitic gneiss in the area were effectively used as keybeds in correlating the geophysical well logs to the result of geological core logs.

We analyzed the statistical properties for the conductive background fractures in the Low and Intermediate Level Waste(LILW) disposal site to conceptualize of its groundwater flow system. The background fractures were classified to fracture sets based on their trends and plunges that were obtained from the borehole logging data, and then the fracture transmissivity distribution was inferred from the fixed interval hydraulic test results. The fracture size distribution of each fracture set was estimated using the fracture density and fracture mapping data. To verify the analyzed results, we compared observed field data to simulated one from the DFN model that was constructed with the analyzed statistical properties of the background fractures, and they showed a good agreement.
