Geomorphological development and distribution at the macro scale provide a clue to the geotectonic characteristics that have affected the geomorphological system. This is because the developmental characteristics and distribution of the landform at the macro scale remain spatial characteristics due to tectonic processes, such as fault activity. From the perspective of tectonic geomorphology, this study identified the developmental characteristics and distribution of the Quaternary landforms in central-southern Yangsan fault and discussed its relevance to fault activity. In this paper, we presented examples and results of morphotectonic analysis of the Yangsan fault, and will present the results of age dating, stratigraphic relationship of the Quaternary landforms, and calculation of cumulative slip rate in the next paper.

Junior Ranger is a self-directed interpretation program for young visitors at national parks in the United States. The success of this program can be largely attributed to the role of an activity book which is given an applicant free of charge at a visitor center. This study aims to analyze the main characteristics of activity books for 14 national parks' Junior Ranger and to draw some implications for Korean geomorphological education. Although the activity books are varied in size, volume and printing, all of them offer diverse activities which are composed of different contents related to park resources in four fields and are performed in different ways such as Q&A, picture and word game, and creative activity. The time-consuming activities including attendance at a ranger-led program prevent the participant from making a superficial visit to be a junior ranger. The implications of the study are as follows: Firstly, the geomorphological education for children is needed to be strongly based on field experience learning and to be more carried out using a way of game rather than conventional Q&A, suggesting that it encourages students not to lose their interest for learning. Secondly, it is also necessary for the learning contents to be focused on various resources related to landform as well as landform itself. In addition, a creative activity such as writing verse or drawing feeling should be more applied to the geomorphological education in order to enhance their effects on affective domain beyond cognitive one. It is likely to be an alternative approach to understand landform by internalizing a sense of landform.

This study has analyzed and revised the geomorphological terms in the Reference Guide for Geography Textbook Compilation issued by the Ministry of Education in 2017. The current geography glossary is composed of 1,150 terms of which 24.4 percent are geomorphological one. They also amount to 52.2 percent of the terms registered in the physical geography glossary. The number of terms in coastal landforms is the maximum of fifty-eight, while the one in weathering landforms is the minimum of six. This suggests a large difference in the number of terms among landform types originating from varying geomorphic processes. A lot of ordinary words are included in the geomorphology glossary. Since they have been already registered in the Korean Standards Dictionary which is another reference guide for textbook compilation, it is appropriate to delete them out of the geomorphological terms. The geomorphology glossary also contains difficult terms written in Chinese characters, inappropriate terms and even incorrect terms which are likely to lead to misconception on landforms. The revised glossary consists of 284 geomorphological terms in which 101 terms are newly added after taking all the problems into consideration.

This study documents the distribution of (active) faults around the southern part of the Yangsan Fault and the Moryang Fault and the middle part of the Dongrae Fault. For this objective, we extracted lineaments and fault-related landforms by analyzing aerial photos and digital elevation models and with the result of fieldwork on fault-relating features of the Quaternary landforms. Geomorphological techniques for active fault study are not only preliminary but also essential methods because, in general, an active fault can be defined only with fault-deformed Quaternary sediments when there is no way to detect precise timing of faulting. Therefore, geomorphological interpretation in active fault research is necessary to determine the extent, direction, termination and timing of fault. This study addresses the results of such geomorphological analysis and geomorphic markers for tracing the active faults in the study area. It is plan to investigate with geophysical and geological techniques the sites referred in this study.

본 연구는 사도(중도와 증도를 포함)에 분포하는 지형 및 지질경관의 특성을 조사하여 생태관광 및 지오투어리즘 그리고 학생을 위한 현장체험학습의 기초 자료를 제공하는데 목적이 있다. 연구지역에 분포하는 지형 및 지질경관은 국립환경과학원(2007)의 분류 안에 따르면 9종류의 지형경관 그리고 한국환경정책 평가연구원(2003)의 분류 안을 따르면 17종류가 분포하고 있다. 이러한 지형 및 지질경관은 사도를 찾는 관광객을 위한 생태관광, 지오투어리즘을 위한 기초 자료가 될 뿐 아니라 초, 중등 학생이 교과서에 제시된 다양한 지형과 지질의 예를 경험하고 관찰할 수 있는 현장체험학습의 자료로서도 활용가치가 있다. 또한 한국환경정책 평가연구원(2003)에서 제시한 지형 및 지질 유산의 조사 대상에 대해서는 보다 전문적이고 정밀한 조사를 통해 이들의 보존가치를 판단할 필요성이 있다.

This study aims to investigate geomorphological and geological landscapes in the Taeanhaean National Park to ensure they are well-preserved. This study discovered 390 geomorphological and geological landform resources distributed in the coastal zone of Taeanhaean National Park. Representative geomorphological and geological landforms include : sea cliffs, sea caves, wave-cut platforms, sea-stacks, pebble beaches, sand beaches, tidal flats, coastal dunes, coastal dune wetlands and folds (or micro folds) landforms. Deposition landforms are developed more and erosion and weathering landforms are less on the land zone than island zone. These landform resources vary from district to district and can be developed for geo-tourism resources. Combined efforts from the Taeanhaean National Park authorities and residents are essential to manage ecological programs using geomorphological and geological resources.

Massive coastal sand dunes are distributed in Ui-island, Shinan-gun. The sand dunes in Ui-island is worth studying, in terms of preserving natural environment without anthropogenic impacts. In this study, we surveyed geomorphological processes of the sand dune based upon measuring of geometric properties, grain size analysis, and OSL(Optically Stimulated Luminescence) age dating. The sediments of the dune consist mainly of well sorted medium sand with about 250$\mu$m. Based on spatial distribution of sand dunes, we found that they are formed by northwest monsoon during winter, and sands are supplied from Seongchon area in northern UI-island. According to OSL age dating, the sand dunes were deposited from $0.07{\pm}0.01ka$ to $0.17{\pm}0.04ka$. This result shows that the transformation of the dune due to the sand movement by wind was active during the last 100-200 years. The aerial photograph indicates that the dimension of the largest sand dune has decreased since 1945. Further research is needed to get more detailed information on geomorphic changes of sand dunes in UI-island.

Advances that have been made in improving luminescence dating techniques over the past decade have ushered in new powerful tools in geomorphological research. The method was initially developed for archaeological purposes as a dating technique for fired artefacts such as pottery, tiles and bricks.(omitted)

기후지형학 관점에서 몽골의 지형환경은 대륙성 한랭-건조 지형의 대표성을 지니고 있다. 본 연구는 이곳 스텝지역의 지형환경 특색을 파악하려는 것이다. 이곳에서의 지표과정은 매우 역동적이다. 기온교차가 심한 한랭 환경임과 동시에 제한된 양이지만 동계강설로 공급되는 수분은 이곳을 서릿발작용에 의한 기계적 풍화가 강하게 진전되는 지역으로 만들고 있다. 이렇게 생성된 풍화물들은 하계 폭우시의 지표수와 봄철 바람작용에 의해 침식·제거되고 있다. 몽골 스텝지역의 사면들은 토층발달이 미약한 박토상태인데도 모든 사면에서 평활하게 펼쳐져 있다. 이는 풍화와 풍화물 침식이 균형을 이루는 모습이다. 몽골의 지형환경은 서릿발작용에 의한 풍화, 지표수와 바람에 의한 침식, 이들 모두가 활발하면서도 서로 균형을 이룬다는 특색을 지니고 있다.
