  • There is a great deal evidence concerning crustal uplift, after deglaciation, in the vicinity of Syowa Station $(69^{\circ}S,\;39^{\circ}E)$ from tide gauge data, seismic evidence, raised beaches, marine terraces, etc. The geomorphological and tide gauge data show that the crustal uplift is going on around Syowa Station. Seismic observations at Syowa Station started in 1959. Phase readings of the earthquakes have been published by National Institute of Polar Research once a year since 1968, as one of the Data Report Series. Eighteen local earthquakes were detected on short period seismograms at Syowa Station in 1990-2000. The seismicity during the period from 1990 to 2000 was lower than that from 1987 to 1989 when epicenters of local earthquakes were determined by tripartite seismic array. Local earthquake activity corroborates the crustal uplif4 which is an intermittent phenomenon. Sea level falling of 4.5 mm/y was found using data in 1975-1992. This felling rate is consistent with the geomorphological data. A route for repeat leveling survey was established in East Ongul Island. No appreciable change of sea level was observed for the last 14 years. A dynamics of the crustal uplift around Syowa Station has been discussed using geomorphological data, ocean tide, and seismic and leveling data, which is estimated to be an intermittent phenomenon. When local seismic activity is high, the crustal uplift is estimated to be going on. On the contrary, the crustal uplift is in dormancy when the local seismicity is low. Repeated leveling measurements suggest no significant changes, which further supports the idea that the crustal uplift in offshore is not a tilt trend movement but a block movement.

  • 역사지진 카탈로그 즉, 1960년대 전과 이후 1995년까지의 지진관측을 이용하여 한반도의 지진활동과 응력상태가 연구되었다. 이씨왕조의 처음 1400-1600년대의 200년동안 역사지진 카탈로그는 크게 완성되었다. 그후부터 카탈로그는 거의 강진만 완성하는데 주력했다. 강진분포를 볼때 한반도 지진대는 서울-평양 지진대, 남부지진대, 그리고 북부지진대로 나눌 수 있다. 이들 강진의 초동 메카니즘은 그리드 테스팅 방법(grid testing method)에 의해서 재분석되었다. 지진메카니즘 결과는 압축방향이 동서방향을 따라서 수평으로 놓여 있음을 발견했다.

  • The results from the Individual Plant Examination of External Event of Yonggwyang nuclear power plants, unit 3 & 4, in Korea have shown that the high degree of diversities of the experts' opinions on seismicity and attenuation models is su, pp.sed to be generic cause of uncertainty of APEs(annual exceedance probability) in the PAHA(probabilistic seismic hazard analysis). This study investigated the sensitivity of the focal depth, which is one of the most uncertain seismicity parameters in Korea, Significant differences in resultant values of annual exceedance probabilities and much more symmetrical shape of the resultant PDFs(probability density functions), in case of consideration of focal depth, are found. These two results suggest that, even for the same seismic input data set including the seismicity models and ground motion attenuation models, to consider focal depth additionally for probabilistic seismic hazard analysis evaluation makes significant influence on the distributions of uncertainties and probabilities of exceedance per year for the whole ranges of seismic hazard levels. These facts suggest that it is necessary to derive focal depth parameter more effectively from the historical and instrumental documents on earthquake phenomena in Koran Peninsula for the future study of PSHA.

  • 균일한 모델에 대하여 해석적인 방법을 적용하여 한반도 남동부의 감쇠상수 고유치를 분리하였다. 해석적인 방법에 의한 이론치와 759 지진자료에 의한 관측치를 다중지연시간창법으로 비교하여 분리를 행하였다. 이전의 연구에서 한반도의 전체 $Q_i^{-1}$$Q_s^{-1}$ 값은 매우 낮은 값이 도출되어 지진 안정지대의 값을 반영하는 것으로 풀이된 반면, 한반도 남동부는 비교적 높은$Q^{-1}$값이어서 이는 한반도 타지역에 비해 높은 지진활동도와 연관된 것으로 보인다.

  • Water-resisting key stratum (WKS) between coal seams is an important barrier that prevents water inrush from goaf in roof under multi-seam mining. The occurrence of water inrush can be evaluated effectively by analyzing the fracture of WKS in multi-seam mining. A "long beam" water inrush mechanical model was established using the multi-seam mining of No. 2+3 and No. 8 coal seams in Xiqu Mine as the research basis. The model comprehensively considers the pressure from goaf, the gravity of overburden rock, the gravity of accumulated water, and the constraint conditions. The stress distribution expression of the WKS was obtained under different mining distances in No. 8 coal seam. The criterion of breakage at any point of the WKS was obtained by introducing linear Mohr strength theory. By using the mechanical model, the fracture of the WKS in Xiqu Mine was examined and its breaking position was calculated. And the risk of water inrush was also evaluated. Moreover, breaking process of the WKS was reproduced with Flac3D numerical software, and was analyzed with on-site microseismic monitoring data. The results showed that when the coal face of No. 8 coal seam in Xiqu Mine advances to about 80 m ~ 100 m, the WKS is stretched and broken at the position of 60 m ~ 70 m away from the open-off cut, increasing the risk of water inrush from goaf in roof. This finding matched the result of microseismic analysis, confirming the reliability of the water inrush mechanical model. This study therefore provides a theoretical basis for the prevention of water inrush from goaf in roof in Xiqu Mine. It also provides a method for evaluating and monitoring water inrush from goaf in roof.

  • 일본, 중국 등 인접 지진다발 국가에서 큰 지진동이 전파되어 오는 경우, Lg파가 최대 진폭을 갖게 되어 Lg파의 감쇠상수($Q^{-1}$)는 매우 중요한 의미를 갖게 된다. 지진연구협의회(IRIS)의 자료를 바탕으로 관측점간 경로거리가 긴 자료에 대하여 두관측점법을 이용하여 Lg파의 감쇠상수 값을 도출한 결과, 지진활동도에 상응하는 감쇠값을 얻었다. 일본지역을 잇는, 해양지각을 통과하는 경로는 높은 감쇠값을 보여서 지진활동도 및 지각의 감쇠특성을 잘 나타내고 있으며, 또한 큰 지진이 많았던 중국 상해지역을 잇는 경로도 일본지역 다음으로 높은 감쇠값을 보인다. 반면, 한반도 및 만주지역을 잇는 경로는 지진활동상황과 상응하는 매우 낮은 값을 보였다.

  • 한반도 주위의 새로운 구조력(neotectionics)을 이해하고, 지진 위험을 평가하기 위해서, 한반도와 그 인접지역의 지진활동을 시간적 및 공간적으로 조사 연구한다. 본 연구는 역사적문헌에서 얻은 기술적인 지진자료와 세계지진 관측망 (WWSSN)에서 얻은 기록등을 사용하여 수행되었다. 한반도의 지진 활동은 13 세기부터 17 세기까지에 가장활발하였다. 지진정지기 (seismic quiescence)는 18 세기에 들어와서 시작하여 약 200 년동안 계속되었다. 최근에와서 지진활동dms 다시 활발하다는 것이 발견되었다. 지진의 위험 분포와 지진회복주기 (return period) 는 축적규모진도수에 의한 통계학적 방법에 의해서 결정되었다. 최근 한반도에서 지진 위험지역은 반도의 서남부 및 서부지역에서 더욱 크다는 것이 발견되었다. Focal mechanism에 의한 일본해 부근의 지진잠재력(neotectonic stress)에 관해서 고찰하면, 옛날의 Paleotectonics의 주력은 지구의 crust의 확장설(expanding)에 의해서 큰 지배를 받았지만, 최근은 태평양 plate가 유라시아 대륙이나 필립핀 plate 밑으로 충돌하여 들어가는 subducting motion 에 큰 지배를 받고 있다는 것이 발견되었다.

  • 한국은 약 1900여 회의 역사지진자료를 보유하고 있다. 이 지진들의 진앙과 지노는 지진기록과 감진지역에 의하여 분석되었다. 그 결과 대부분의 지진들이 중생대의 지각변동들의 영향을 가장 적게 받은 북동부를 제외하고는 반도내의 주요 단층이나 지체구조의 경계를 따라 발생하였음이 발견되었다. 중생대의 지각변동으로 한반도 남부지역과 북서부지역의 지각이 심하게 파쇄되었고 이때 생성된 단층들의 일부가 현재까지 지진을 발생시켜 온 것으로 추정된다. 한반도의 지진활동은 제 1세기~14세기 간에 비교적 낮은 편이었으나 15세기~18세기에는 이례적으로 매우 높았고 그 이후로는 다시 낮은 상태가 지속되고 있다. 이례적으로 높은 지진활동의 기간은 중국 북동부와 일치하며 이는 이 두지역의 지진활동이 밀접하게 연관되어 있음을 시사한다. 한반도의 지진활동은 주로 히말라야 산맥에서 유우라시아판과 인도판이 충돌할 때 발생하는 응력에 기인하는 것으로 여겨진다. 한반도의 역사지진자료 목록은 아직 완전하다고 볼 수 없으며 이 방면의 연구가 현재도 진행중에 있다. 본 논문의 주목적은 현재까지 분석된 한반도 역사지진의 목록을 이러한 자료를 필요로하는 국내 지구과학자와 공학자에게 제공하는 데에 있다.

  • Peninsular Malaysia lying on the stable Sunda Plate has traditionally been considered safe with low to moderate seismicity. However, far field Sumatran mega-earthquakes have been shown to be capable of triggering ground motions felt in high rise structures in the major Malaysian cities while seismic impact from local earthquakes of moment magnitude 3.8 have reportedly induced nominal structural damages to nearby buildings. This paper presents an overview of the recent seismic activities in and around Peninsular Malaysia with reference to prominent earthquakes generated by far field interplate and local intraplate sources. Records of ground motion data and seismic hazard assessment (SHA) results available in the literature have been analyzed and discussed. The peak ground acceleration (PGA) values from historical records for few local intraplate events were observed to be higher than those for the events from Sumatran Subduction Zone. This clearly points to the need for a detailed and comprehensive SHA incorporating both far field and local sources. Such an analysis would contribute the knowledge required for secure and reliable infrastructure design and safeguard the Malaysian people and economy.

  • The seismic monitoring at Syowa Station$(69^{\circ}S,\;39^{\circ}E: SYO)$, located on the continental margin of the Eastern Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica, began in 1959. Phase readings of the earthquakes have been reported since 1967 and have been annually published as part of the Data Report Series of the National Institute of Polar Research since 1968. An observation of a tripartite seismic network was carried out at SYO for a period of three years from 1987 to 1990. Epicenters of local earthquakes were determined for the first time by using the array network for the three-year period. Many different types of earthquakes, such as the mainshock-aftershock type, twin earthquake, earthquake swarms, etc., were detected during the period. After this, local events around SYO have been detected empirically from their waveforms recorded on seismograms. The seismic activity for the period of 1987-1990 was higher than that of the following decade. Earthquake epicenters, occurring during that period, were highly localized along the coast and in the central part of the $L\"{u}tzow-Holm$ Bay (LHB). Nine local earthquakes, recorded during the period of 1990-1996, showed many different types of events. The seismicity for the period of 1990-1996 was very low and the magnitudes ranged from 0.1 to 1.4. The locations of some events were determined by using the single station method for SYO, i.e., using the particle motions of the initial phase and S-P time. Two local events were detected in 1998 and one event in 2001. It would be estimated that the stress concentration was related to the glacial rebound around the LHB. Afterwards, we will be able to eventually examine the relationship between the seismicity around Antarctica and deglacial phenomena such as crustal uplift, and sea level change within the earth environmental system.
