Abstract

Recently there are many disasters caused by volcanic activities such as the eruptions in Tungurahua, Ecuador(2014) and $Eyjafjallaj\ddot{o}kull$, Iceland(2010). Therefore, it is required to prepare countermeasures for the disasters. This study analyzes the Baekdu Mountain area, where is the risky area because it is active volcano, based on the observed data and scientific methods in order to assess a risk, produce a hazard map and analyze a degree of risk caused by the volcano. Firstly, it is reviewed for the research about the Baekdu mountain volcanic eruption in 1215(${\pm}15$ years) done by Liu Ruoxin. And the factors causing volcanic disaster, environmental effects, and vulnerability of Baekdu Mountain are assessed by the dataset, which includes the earthquake monitoring data, the volcanic deformation monitoring data, the volcanic fluid geochemical monitoring data, and the socio-economic statistics data. A hazard, especially caused by a volcano, distribution map for the Baekdu Mountain Area is produced by using the assessment results, and the map is used to establish the disaster risk index system which has the four phases. The first and second phases are very high risky area when the Baekdu Mountain erupts, and the third and fourth phases are less dangerous area. The map shows that the center of mountain has the first phase and the farther area from the center has the lower phase. Also, the western of Baekdu Mountain is more vulnerable to get the risk than the eastern when the factors causing volcanic disasters are equally applied. It seems to be caused by the lower stability of the environment and the higher vulnerability.

2014년 에콰도르의 툰구라와 화산폭발, 2010년 아이슬란드 에이야프야틀라이외쿠틀 화산폭발 등과 같이 최근 화산활동으로 인한 재해피해가 증가하고 있으며 이에 대한 대책마련이 시급한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 현재 폭발 위험성이 높은 활화산 중 하나인 백두산을 대상으로 객관적 관측자료와 과학적인 방법에 근거하여 재해위험지역 분석을 실시하였다. 첫 번째로 중국학자 Liu Ruoxin의 연구에 근거하여 1215(${\pm}15$)년 백두산 화산 대폭발 화산재해 데이터를 참조하여 백두산지역의 지진관측자료와 화산지역 형태변화 관측자료, 화산지역 유체지구화학관측자료, 사회경제 통계데이터를 이용해 재해유발요소, 잠재적인 재해유발환경, 피해대상의 취약성을 종합적으로 평가하였다. 평가결과를 토대로 대상지역에 대한 백두산화산재해위험등급분포도를 산출하였으며, 그 결과 백두산화산재해위험등급을 4단계로 체계화하였다. 분석결과 백두산화산재해위험등급은 중심부에서 주변으로 갈수록 점차 등급이 낮아지는 것으로 분석되었으며 1,2급 위험지역은 화산폭발 시 위험도와 피해가 클 것으로 예상되는 고위험지역으로, 3,4급 위험 지역은 화산재해위험이 상대적으로 낮은 지역으로 나타났다. 또한 같은 강도의 화산재해요소의 작용하에서는 연구지역의 서쪽지역이 받는 위험성이 동쪽지역보다 높은데 이는 비교적 낮은 잠재적인 재해유발환경의 안정성과 높은 피해대상 취약성에 의해 결정됨을 확인할 수 있었다.
