Electric and electromagnetic surveys were conducted to investigate the deep structure of the Ulsan fault in Ipsil area, south of Kyeongju. On this study, especially high-frequency magnetotelluric method of electromagnetic survey in the frequency range of 10~100,000 Hz was mainly employed to study the deep subsurface configuration. High-frequency MT survey was performed at 70 points of spacing 30~50 m, making 3.8 km survey line. As a survey result, a 2-km-depth 2-D cross-section was achieved. It shows vertical and horizontal subsurface variations of resistivity values. Near-surface layer having low resistivity value becomes thicker eastward up to 800m. There is a steep low resistivity zone in the west side of survey line, and there exists two low resistivity zones dipping west in the east side of survey line. Two low resistivity zones are interpreted to be related to major movement pattern of the Ulsan fault. This suggests that major fault lines are developed on both peripheral sides of the broad fault zone.

We applied electrical resistivity survey using modified pole-pole array and small-loop electromagnetic survey to delineate the zone of seawater inflow through a tide embankment. The tide embankment is generally affected by tidal variation and has low resistivity characteristic due to the high saturation of seawater. For this reason, the electrical resistivity survey using modified pole-pole array, which is relatively more effective to the conductive media, was carried out to detect the inflow zone of seawater and small-loop electromagnetic survey using multi-frequency with 300 to 20,010 Hz was conducted. As a result of both electrical resistivity survey using modified pole-pole array and small -loop electromagnetic survey, these survey methods are found to be quite effective for investigation of seawater inflow zone in the sea dike.

다른 물리탐사법과는 달리, 전자탐사의 실질적인 국내 활용과 연구는 1980년대부터이다. 이렇게 늦게나마 시작하게 된 것은 1970년대 미국 유학한 네 명의 연구자들의 영향이고, 이 들과의 공동연구와 유대는 현재까지 지속되고 있다. 그 동안 국내 연구진이 이룬 성과는 괄목할 만 하다. 이제 우리는 MT와 CSAMT탐사, 지자기수직탐사, 소형루프탐사, VLF탐사, GPR탐사, 시간영역 전자탐사 등 전 분야에 걸쳐 국제 수준의 기술력을 확보하게 되었고 신기술인 고주파수 전자탐사, 시간영역 전자탐사, 역산기법 분야에서 창의 있는 연구 성과를 내고 있다. 활용 분야도 지하자원탐사에서 지반조사, 환경조사, 고고학조사, 구조물 결함조사, 땅굴조사 등으로 엄청나게 확장되었다. 아직도 자료해석이 난삽하기 이를 데 없는 전자탐사법을 한 단계 높일 결정적인 돌파구가 국내 연구진에 의해서 나올 날이 멀지 않을 것이다.

Recently, concerns about health risks exposed to electromagnetic fields have been brought in the safety of electric power lines. A number of governmental and international organizations have advised to avoid the magnetic field exposure to the schools and residential areas. Some epidemiologic studies showed that electromagnetic fields should not exceed the exposure limits of 2-3mG to the people living near high-voltage transmission lines. In this study, the principles, ranges and survey methods of the assessment for powerfrequency electromagnetic fields were reviewed from the relevant research papers and documents. The ranges of electromagnetic fields were determined from 50m to 100m and have been defined according to the properties of each electric power lines and a new methodology was suggested in this study. It would be necessary to develop and improve specific assessment methods for various high-voltage transmission lines projects.

Electromagnetic and electric surveys were performed to reveal the deep structure of the Yangsan fault in the Bong-gye and Unyang areas, Kyeongnam Province, Korea. Especially, high-frequency magnetotelluric (HFMT) method of EM survey was mainly employed to study the deep subsurface configuration of Yangsan fault. HFMT survey was performed at 25 points of spacing 50 m, making 1.3 km survey line in Unyang area and 13 points of spacing 50 m, making 0.6 km survey line in Bong-gye area. Two 2-D cross-sections (Unyang and Bong-gye areas) were achieved as results. Electric survey by dipole-dipole array was performed to study the structure of shallow subsurface and compare the results with HFMT surveys. The results of HFMT and electric surveys show that Yangsan fault is a geologic boundary. It is very narrow and steep (about $80^{\circ}C$), and extends to 1~1.5 km depth.

지하에 매설된 각종 시설물의 위치 및 깊이를 조사하기 위한 비파괴적인 조사방법으로 GPR(Ground Penetrating Radar; 지하투과레이다; 지하레이다) 탐사법이 국내외적으로 많이 활용되고 있으나, 가탐심도가 일반적적로 5m이내로서 낮으며, 지하매질이 불균질하거나 점토, 염분, 자갈 등이 많은 곳 및 주변의 전자기적 잡음이 심한 곳에서는 조사가 안 되는 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 비파괴 GPR 탐사법의 제약을 극복하고자 일반적인 매설심도(물리탐사적으로는 얕은 곳)에 위치한 지하매설물임에도 불구하고 탐지가 안 되는 지역을 선정하여, 토질분석에 의해 탐사가 되지 않는 원인규명과 함께 효과적으로 지하매설물을 탐지할 수 있는 새로운 비파괴 전자(電磁) 탐사법을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 2kHz-4MHz 대역의 지하조사를 위한 고주파수대역 전자탐사법을 개발, 적용하였다. 고주파수대역 전자 탐사는 주파수대역 탐사이며 인공적으로 에너지원(源)을 방출하는 능동적인 탐사법으로서 가탐심도는 약30m 정도이다. 서로 수직한 전기장과 자기장을 측정하여 임피던스를 계산하며, 이로부터 측점 하부의 수직적인 전기비저항 분포를 해석하게 된다. 또한, 비접촉 용량전극을 채택하여 측정시간을 대폭 줄일 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 콘크리트, 아스팔트 및 잡석으로 포장된 지역에서도 조사가 용이하며, 신호중첩에 의해 고압선 등에 의한 잡음을 감소시킬 수 있게 되었다. 다른 탐사방법으로는 발견할 수 없었던 지하매설관에 대해서 본 고주파수대역 전자탐사를 성공적으로 정밀하게 적용할 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과를 지하매설물의 위치 및 깊이 확인을 위한 정밀 지하측량 지반조사 및 문화 유적지조사 등에 효과적으로 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The electromagnetic (light) waves are limited to penetrate the media, ie, water and sea-bottom layers, due to high energy attenuation, but acoustic (sound) waves play as the good messenger to gather the underwater target information. Therefore the acoustic methods are applied to almost of ocean equipments and technology in terms of in-water and sub-bottom surveys, Generally the sound character is controlled by its frequency. In case that the sound source is low frequency, the penetration is high and the resolution is low. On the other hand, its character is reversed at the high frequency. The common character at the both of light and sound is the energy damping according to the travel distance increase.

We present a high frequency electromagnetic (EM) inversion scheme for detecting and characterizing a fracture using single-hole data. At high frequencies, say above tens of mega-hertz, since displacement currents cannot be ignored, electrical permittivity as well as electrical conductivity is to be considered together for analyzing the EM scattering data. In this paper, we have developed a three-step inversion scheme to map the fracture and to evaluate its electrical conductivity and permittivity. We performed EM profiling along the z-axis using three-component receivers for each source. The model was excited by a vertical magnetic dipole and the resistant magnetic fields were inverted using the non-linear least-squares method. Background resistivity and permittivity were easily obtained using vertical magnetic fields below 1 MHz and above 10 MHz, respectively. Both the vertical and dipping sheets were successfully mapped using the phase difference between 40 and 41 MHz. The electrical property of the sheet was well resolved using the information obtained in the previous two steps and secondary magnetic fields. Our study shows the potential of imaging the fracture in single-hole survey environment using the high frequency EM method.

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) survey is a geophysical method that utilizes electromagnetic waves reflecting from a boundary where the electromagnetic property changes. As the frequency of the antenna is about 25 MHz ~ 1 GHz, it is effective to acquire high resolution images of underground pipe, artificial structure, underground cavity, and underground structure. In this study, we analyzed the change of signals reflected from the same underground objects according to the arrangement of transceiver antennas used in ground penetrating radar survey. The antenna used in the experiment was 200 MHz, and the survey was performed in the vertical direction across the sewer and the parallel direction along the sewer to the sewer buried under the road, respectively. A total of five antenna array methods were applied to the survey. The most used arrangement is when the transmitting and receiving antennas are all perpendicular to the survey line (PR-BD). The PR-BD arrangement is effective when the object underground is a horizontal reflector with an angle of less than 30°, such as the sewer under investigation. In this case study, it was confirmed that the transmitter and receiver antennas perpendicular to the survey line (PR-BD) are the most effective way to show the underground structure. In addition, in the case where the transmitting and receiving antennas are orthogonal to each other (XPOL), no specific reflected wave was observed in both experiments measured across or parallel to the sewer. Therefore, in the case of detecting undiscovered objects in the underground, the PR-BD array method in which the transmitting and receiving antennas are aligned in the direction perpendicular to the survey line taken as a reference and the XPOL method in which the transmitting and receiving antennas are orthogonal to each other are all used, it can be effective to apply both of the above arrangements after setting the direction to 45° and 135°.
