Abstract
This study presents multi-variable sequence model for a broader application of sequence concept proposed by Exxon group. The concept of the multi-variable model is based on the fact that internal organization and boundary type of the sequences are determined by three varying factors including 3rd-order cycles of eustasy, and tectonic movement and sediment influx with 2nd-order changes. Instead of Exxon group's systems tracts, this model adopts parasequence sets as the fundamental building blocks of the sequence, because they are descriptive stratigraphic units simply defined by internal stacking pattern, reflecting interactions of accommodation and sediment influx. Seven sequence types which vary in number and type of internal parasequence sets are formulated as associations of four types of accommodation development and three grades of sediment influx. In the southwestern margin of Ulleung Basin, the multi-variable sequence analysis of shelf-slope sequence shows systematic changes in stratal patterns and the numbs, of constituent parasequence sets (i.e. sequence type). These changes are interpreted to reflect temporal and spatial changes in type and rate of tectonic movement and sediment influx, as a result of back-arc opening and closing. During the back-arc opening, rapid subsidence, continuous rise of relative sea level, and high sediment influx gave rise to sequences dominantly of single progradational parasequence set. In the early stage of back-arc closing accompanied by local contractional deformation, different types of sequences contemporaneously formed depending on the spatial changes in tectonically-controlled accommodation and influx rates. During the subsequent slow back-arc subsidence, rise-dominated relative sea-level cycle was coupled with moderate to high sedimentation rate to have resulted in sequences consisting of
본 연구에서는 기존 Exxon group의 순차층서 모델이 갖고 있는 적용의 한계성을 극복하기 위하여 다중변수 순차층서 모델을 제시하였다. 이 모델에서는 2~3차수의 주기성을 갖고 변화되는 범세계적 해수면 변동, 지구조운동, 퇴적물 공급 등의 영향요소를 모두 변수로 간주하며, 이들 요소에 의해 순차층의 내부구성과 경계면 타입이 결정된다. 순차층을 구성하는 기본 단위로 해석적 층서단위인 퇴적계 연합체(systems tract)대신, 내부 지층의 집적형태에 의해 구분되는 기술적 층서단위인 부순차층세트(parasequence set)를 채택하였으며, 부순차층세트의 타입은 상대적 해수면 변동과 퇴적물 공급속도의 변화를 반영한다. 따라서 본 순차층서 모델은, 네 가지 타입의 상대적 해수면 변동과 세 등급의 퇴적물 공급 변화 사이의 조합으로써 예상되는 단일 또는
