This study aimed to identify different sedimentary environments of Gochang coast according to geomorphic conditions of each bore hole. To achieve the aim, this study utilized the classification of sedimentary environmental conditions of surface sediment, which was based on grain size distribution characteristics.In other words, three sedimentary environmental conditions ofsandy flat + sand beach, coastal sand dune and weathered bedrock soil, which were distinguished based on grain size distribution characteristics of mean-sorting for surface sediments, were applied to the sediments of bore holes. Four sedimentary environments could be identified in Gochang coast. First, the lake sedimentary environment originated from terrestrial sediments seems to have been dominated by weathered bedrock soil that the surface flow has deposited in a coastal wetland or a boundary, which is affected by the sea. Second, the lake sedimentary environment that is little affected by coastal sand dunes is located at the center of a valley, which is connected to the land, and the dune slack of Saban-ri. The surface flow of weather bedrock soil is the main source of deposits. However, there seems to have been a temporary influence of the sea. Third, the lake sedimentary environment that is strongly affected by coastal sand dunes is located at the dune slack of Yeongjeong-ri. This environment shows traces of a change from a coastal sand dune into the dune slack. Finally, the coastalsand dune sedimentary environment, which wasinvestigated by boring the current coastal sand dune, shows a temporary influence of the land but seems to have maintained the overall stability. Consequently, this study demonstrated that the grain size distribution characteristics of the present surface sediments could be effectively applied to identify the sedimentary environments of the paleo bore hole sediments. In addition, the paleo change of sedimentary environment could also be identified in many places of Gochang coast. If the results of this study are combined with the age dating and geochemical analysis in future works, the paleo environmental change in Gochang coast will be restored more precisely.

Samples from two boreholes of coastal dune field at Jangho-ri coast, Gochang was studied. These were analyzed by grain size analysis geochemical analysis, and the application of OSL dating method to understand the development during the Holocene. The boreholes SB8 and SB9 were classified into three different sedimentary layers by their mean grain size and geochemical characteristics. The results revealed that the upper sand layer is equivalent to the present coastal dune layer, which developed since 1,200 years ago; the silt layer in the middle to the dune slack or lagoon sedimentation layer, which developed between 1,200 and 6,000 years ago; and the sand layer at the bottom to the paleo coastal dune that developed between 6,000 and 7,000 years ago. It was proposed that the forming material of current coastal dune was supplied from the sandy flat in coastal area, while the middle silt layer was supplied from the weathered soil of a bed rock by the comparison with material of surrounding area. In the case of coastal dune, concentrated layer of sands were identified which were buried about 300 and 1,200 years ago, which is identified as the little ice age. This study confirmed the development of Jangho-ri coastal dunes after Holocene Climate Optimum period, and it is likely to assist in the understanding of coastal dunes development.

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.

영광지역에는 대규모 해안사구가 형성되어 있지만 형성작용은 멈춰있다. 현재 인간의 점유로 많은 부분이 해체되어 있지만, 송림으로 덮인 사구가 남아 있다. 겨울 북서풍에 마주하고 있으며, 전면은 일직선인데 배후는 굴곡지어진 헤어핀 모양을 하고 있다. 사구의 지형적 특징을 밝히기 위해 노두의 관찰, 입도분석, 표면분석 등을 실시하였다. 특히 입도분석은 서해안의 다른 사빈과 사구지역도 함께 실시하였다. 사질 단면 노두에서는 사질층의 교란이 있다. 이런 교란의 형태는 cryoturbation과 유사하고 사구의 형성 시기는 300~400년 전으로 추정되어 소빙기와 관련성이 사료된다. 입도분석과 형태 및 분석에서 영광 해안 사구퇴적물의 입자는 주로 세립질의 모래가 중심으로 되어 있다 극히 일부의 조립사도 있지만 대부분의 입자가 고운 세립질이 중심이다. 분급은 그리 좋은 편이 아니다. 대체로 서해안의 사빈과 사구의 퇴적물이 입도가 거의 비슷한 세립질의 모래들로 이루어졌다. 실체현미경을 이용한 사구사의 분석은 석영의 비율이 전체적으로 70~80%에 이르고, 전체적으로 원마도는 sub-angular가 주로 많이 나타난다. 또한 원마도나 V자형 crack에서 풍화환경이 기계적 풍화환경에 놓여 있음을 보여주고 있다. 끝으로 영광의 해안사구는 다른 지역과 달리 인간의 점유가 일찍 시작되고 역사적 기록이 남아 있음과 동시에 현재의 지명들이 사구와 모래와 관련성이 매우 크게 나타나므로 사구의 이용에 따른 촌락의 형성과정이 이루어지고 있는 사회와 문화화된 경관지역으로 가치가 있다.

The Okjukdong dune in Daecheong Island attracts national attention because of its unique landscape that is not covered by vegetation. However, there has been little knowledge on the timing of the dune formation, associated wind regime, and conservational strategies. In this study, we used OSL dating and grain size analyses to reveal the history of the dune development. In addition, we analyzed the wind regime in the dunefield which is surrounded by artificial coastal forest. The fine sand at Okjukdong underlain by a colluvial gravel layer indicates that the dune has been developed since at least 5 ka. Aeolian sands were found to be deposited around 700 years ago. The dunefield appears to have been severely eroded 30~60 years ago. The dune landscape has been destroyed after constructing a windbreak forest around the dunefield. The sand seems to be moving south and north with the season.

This paper deals with grain size analysis, heavy mineral analysis and trace element analysis of the recent sediments of Han River basin between Cheongpyong, Gyeonggi province and Seoul. For each location the samples are taken at river shoreline, river berm and river dune. The size analysis discloses that the mean values range from $-1.37{\phi}$ to $-1.60{\phi}$, sorting values range from 0.25 to 1.84, skewness values range from -0.44 to 0.51 and kurtosis values range from -0.1 to 1.75. Based on the textural parameters, the dune sand can be distinguished from the shoreline-berm sand. The content of heavy minerals of each sample ranges from 0.04 to 4.7%. The principal heavy minerals are ilmenite, magnetite, leucoxene, garnet, amphibole, pyroxene, kyanite, zircon, monazite, tourmaline, epidote, limonite, and minor minerals are apatite, sillimanite, andalusite and olivine. In general, dune sand samples contain more heavy minerals than the samples of shoreline or berm sand. This suggests that the heavy mineral concentration is affected by wind action more than by any other causes. The content of ilmenite and leucoxene decreases, whereas the content of zircon and epidote increases as it approaches the downstream region. The differences result from the variance of geological occurrences. The emission spectrochemical analysis and colorimetry analysis revealed that the content of Ni and V in the heavy minerals of the study area are higher than those of other stream sediments in Korea. On the other hand the content of Cu, Ph, Zn, Mo, W, P, Mn, Cr, Ag and Sn are lower in the study area. It has been observed also that the contents of all the elements except for Bi are higher in this area than the samples of marine sediments of Yellow Sea.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the physicochemical characteristics and formation age of sand dunes in the Okjukdong and Dajindong, Daecheong Island. As a result, most of the sand deposited in Okjukdong were composed of medium sized sand with moderately well sorted. The $SiO_2$ and $Al_2O_3$ accounted for a very high proportion of these deposits. There were some differences in characteristics between the sands in the dune and beach, whereas similar characteristics were observed among the materials (OJ-B, OJ-C and OJ-D) in the dune. In case of Dajindong, heterogeneous geochemical characteristics were found in the lower point. It was estimated that this was due to the influence of Daejin-dong black beach. Age dating results showed that uncovered dunes in Okjukdong were deposited $0.44{\pm}0.02$ ~ $0.50{\pm}0.02ka$, and sand depositsin Dajindong were formed $0.16{\pm}0.01$ ~ $0.18{\pm}0.01ka$. In both Okjukdong and Dajindong, sand deposits estimated to be formed 70 years ago, therefore it can be estimated that sand movement was active throughout the area from about hundred years ago. In this study area, the growth of sand dunes has been active in recent several decades or hundred years. It seems that there were different regions where deposits predominated over time. The source of dune sand was also different from time to time. Since the windbreak forest was established, the natural growth of sand dunes was limited, and sand nourishment was carried out by period. Therefore, in order to protect and continuously utilize coastalsand dunesin Daecheong Island, it is necessary to prepare conservation plan.

천리포 해안사구 퇴적층에 대한 연대측정을 Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL)을 이용하여 Single Aliquot Regeneration (SAR) 법 중 열처리 조건을 일부 수정하여 실시하였다. 예열과 cut-heat을 각각 $260^{\circ}C$ 10 초 $-220^{\circ}C$ 0 초와 $270^{\circ}C$ 10 초 $-270^{\circ}C$ 10 초의 두 가지 조합을 적용하였다. 예열 및 cutheat의 열처리 과정을 변화시킴으로써 원하는 신호만을 선별하는 것이 가능했으며, 이를 등가선량을 구하는데 이용하였다. 또한 시료를 $75{\mu}m$, $150{\mu}m$, $200{\mu}m$의 표준체로 크기를 4개의 영역으로 구분하였고, 열처리 조건의 변화와 입자의 크기가 달라짐에 따라 등가선량이 다르게 측정되어 다른 연대가 산출되었다. 그 결과는 방사성탄소연대측정법에 의한 연대와 비교하였다. 입자의 크기에 따라 다른 연대가 산출된 것으로 미루어 천리포 해안사구 퇴적지층은 토양의 유입원이 혼합되어 구성되었음을 추정할 수 있었다.
