Abstract

충남 부여지역의 홀로세(약 8,400 yrs B.P.~현재) 기간의 환경 특히 기후환경을 복원하기 위하여 부여군 가탑리 일대에 분포하는 선상지 퇴적물을 대상으로 탄소동위원소분석과 대자율분석을 실시하였다. 탄소동위원소분석 결과에 의하면, 조사지역에서는 크게 5회의 기후변화가 확인되었는데 I기(期)부터 VI기(期)로 가면서 가장 냉량 건조${\rightarrow}$온난 습윤${\rightarrow}$냉량 건조${\rightarrow}$온난 습윤${\rightarrow}$IV기(期)에 비해 건조${\rightarrow}$V기(期)에 비해 습윤한 환경으로 변천하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 특히 약 5,900~3,200 yrs B.P.의 기간이 상대적으로 가장 온난 습윤했던 것으로 밝혀졌다. 하지만 대자율분석에 의하면 시료채취지점 일대의 환경변화는 크게 4개의 시대로 구분되는데 ii-기(期)에 가장 대자율이 높다. I-기(期)는 배후습지 기원의 퇴적물로 이루어져 있으며, 시간의 경과에 따라 토양화가 진전되었다. 이에 비해 ii-기(期)와 iii-기(期)에서 대자율이 다른 시기에 비해 높은 이유는 구릉사면의 풍화와 토양화 과정에서 강자성 광물이 집적된 토양층이 침식에 의해 제거되고 이들이 운반되어 선상지 퇴적물을 형성했기 때문이다. iv-기(期)는 경작층으로 이용되는 현재에 대비된다.

Multi-proxy analysis was used to produce a high-resolution paleoclimatic record from a thick section of the Holocene alluvial fan deposit in Gatap-ri, Buyeo. According to ${\delta}^{13}C$ analyses, five minor climate fluctuations can be determined. From the stage I to stage VI, climate changes are as follows: cool-dry, warm-humid, cool-dry, warm humid, drier than stage IV, and finally more humid environment than stage V. According to magnetic susceptibility records, four different stages can be identified, among which stage ii shows the highest susceptibility. Stage-i deposit is derived from sediments of back marsh-type wetland. Stage-ii and stage-iii deposits, however, show higher magnetic susceptibility because magnetite-enriched soil from weathered upland was transported to the area to form an alluvial fan deposits. Stage-iv deposit is comparable to the modern plow horizon.
