초록

남동해안의 호미곶과 구룡포 인근지역의 해안단구에는 3조의 제4기 단층이 인지 되며, 이중 2조는 4단구와 2단구의 평탄면을 자르고 있다. 호미곶 남쪽 하정리의 하정단층은 4단구를, 호미곶 구만리의 구만단층은 2단구를 자르고 있다. 하정단층은 역단층운동을 하였으며 주향과 경사는 하부에서 $N55^{\circ}W/45^{\circ}NE$, 상부에서 $N45^{\circ}W/40^{\circ}N$E로 수직 변위는 약 180 cm이다. 하정단층은 MIS 7~MIS 5c 동안 단층운동 시 형성된 4조 붕적퇴적층이 발달하고 있어, 4회의 단층 운동이 있었음을 알 수 있다. 호미곶 구만리에 위치하고 있는 구만단층은 3조의 역단층이 관찰되며 단층의 주향과 경사는 $N80^{\circ}E{\sim}N70^{\circ}W/25^{\circ}-35^{\circ}SE{\sim}30^{\circ}SW$로 수직이동거리는 9 cm~18 cm이다. 구만단층은 부정합면 직상위의 최하위 퇴적층만 이동시켰으며, MIS 5a의 80 ka 이후, MIS 4의 71 ka 이전 기간 동안 1회 운동하였다. 이 하정단층과 구만단층의 자세를 고려해 볼 때, 남동해안에는 후기 플라이스토세 기간동안 동북동-서남서 압축력과 남북 압축력이 작용한 것으로 생각된다. 하정리의 4단구 퇴적층과 구만리의 2단구 OSL연대 결과, 대보 지괴의 4단구는 MIS 7, 2단구는 MIS 5a임을 재검증하였다.

Three Quaternary faults have been revealed in marine terraces nearby the Homigot and the Gurongpo in the southeastern offshore of Korean Peninsula. The Hajung fault cuts the $4^{th}$ marine terraces and the Guman fault the $2^{nd}$, respectively. The Hajung fault strikes $N55^{\circ}$ to $45^{\circ}W$ and dips $40^{\circ}$ to $45^{\circ}NE$ with reverse-displacement of 180cm vertically. There are four sets of colluvial sediment strata that would be produced by faulting and indicate four times of fault movements during MIS 7 and MIS 5c. The Guman fault site consists of three sets of reverse faults that strike $N80^{\circ}E$ to $N70^{\circ}W$ and dip $25^{\circ}{\sim}35^{\circ}SE$ to $30^{\circ}SW$ with vertical displacement of 9~18 cm. The Guman faulting occurred during 80 ka (MIS 5a) to 71 ka (MIS 4) but it extends only to the lowest bed, the pebble sand bed, lay just on the unconformity, and not to the upper. Considering the attitude of the faults, we inferred that the Hajung fault was activated under the ENE-WSW compression during MIS 7 to MIS 5c and the Guman under N-S trending compression during MIS 5a. Using the OSL age dating results, we reconfirmed that the $2^{nd}$ terrace is correlated to MIS 5a and the $4^{th}$ terraces to MIS 7.
