The Hongjeom formation of the Pyeongan Supergroup in the Munkyeong coalfield mainly consists of metapsammite and metapelites. Metampelites occur as slate preserving chloritoid+chlorite+muscovite and andalusite+biotite+chlorite+muscovite mineral assemblages. Chloritoid and andalusite occur as porphyroblast, and the matrix composed of fine-grained micas. Metamorphic P-T conditions for these mineral assemblages are $510-520^{\circ}C$ and 3.0-3.5kbar based on P-T pseudosection in $MnO-K_2O-FeO-MgO-Al_2O_3-SiO_2-H_2O(MnKFMASH)$ system and isopleth intersections of Fe/(Fe+Mg) ratios in chloritoid and chlorite. The medium temperature and low pressure metamorphism resulted from a higher geothermal gradient ($40-45^{\circ}C/km$) condition than that of burial metamorphism. The youngest (SHRIMP U-Pb age; ca. 327-310 Ma) detrital zircon grains from the Hongjeom formation display oscillatory zoning and relatively high Th/U ratio (0.60-1.12). Based on the previous sedimentary, paleontological, and geochronological studies in the Taebaeksan basin together with results of this study, we suggest that (1) initial deposition of the Hongjeom formation was contemporaneous with a magmatic activity in the provenance, (2) the Pyeongan Supergroup was deposited in an arc-related basin at an active continental margin during the Carboniferous to Permain, and (3) magmatic activities occurred repetitively in relatively short interval in the active continental margin had continuously supplied sediments to the basin.

The occurrence of natural radionuclides like uranium and radon in groundwater was hydrochemically examined based on 40 well groundwaters in Mungyeong area. The range of electrical conductivity (EC) value in the study area was $68{\sim}574{\mu}S/cm$. In addition to the increase of EC value, the content of cations and anions also tends to increase. Uranium concentrations ranged from $0.03{\sim}169{\mu}g/L$ (median value, $0.82{\mu}g/L$) and radon concentrations ranged from 70~30,700 pCi/L (median value, 955 pCi/L). Only 1 out of 40 wells (2.5%) showed uranium concentration exceeding the maximum contaminant level (MCL; $30{\mu}g/L$) proposed by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Radon concentrations of eight wells (20%) exceeded AMCL(Alternative maximum contaminant level) of the US EPA (4,000 pCi/L). Four out of those eight wells even exceeded Finland's guideline level (8,100 pCi/L). When concentrations of uranium and radon were investigated in terms of geology, the highest values are generally associated with granite. The uranium and radon levels observed in this study are low in comparison to those of other countries with similar geological settings. It is likely that the measured value was lower than the actual content due to the inflow of shallow groundwater by the lack of casing and grouting.

꿀벌의 실내월동에 이용되는 월동용 저온양봉사의 내부환경에 영향을 주는 요소에는 외기온, 저장봉군수, 환기량 등이 있다. 이러한 환경요인을 고려하여 설계 제작된 국내 월동용 저온양봉사의 성능 및 저장봉군수와 양봉사 내부온도의 관계를 분석하고자 경상북도의 7개 지역에 설치된 월동용 저온양봉사(내부크기 폭4.5m×길이3m×높이3m)에 대하여 2000. 11. 25부터 2001, 2. 15까지 실내월동 실험을 수행하였다. 실험대상 지역은 포항, 문경, 상주, 칠곡, 성주, 영양, 안동이며, 지역별 저장봉군수는 각각 14, 74, 85, 110, 163, 170, 260군이다(Table 1). 꿀벌의 월동기간 중 안동과 성주지역을 제외한 5개 지역의 실내 월동성적은 폐사율이 10％미만으로 대체적으로 우수한 것으로 조사되었으나, 월동기간중 지역별 외기온을 분석한 결과, 평균외기온 및 최저외기온이 가장 낮은 지역은 안동이었으며, 그 값이 각각 -3.1℃와 -9.4℃일 때 양봉사 내부의 평균온도와 최저온도는 5.2℃와 3.8℃로 나타났다. 반면에 평균외기온 및 최저외기온이 가장 높은 지역은 포항이었으며 그 값이 각각 1.3℃와 -4.1℃일 때 양봉사 내부의 평균온도와 최저온도는 각각 3.1℃와 1.2℃로 나타나 저온양봉사 내부의 온도환경 조절성능이 모두 우수한 것으로 판단되었다(Table 1). 또한 월동기간중 주.야간으로 양봉사 내.외부의 온도변화를 분석한 결과, 저장봉군수의 증가에 따라 주야간 모두 양봉사 내.외부 온도편차가 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며 양봉사 내부의 주.야간 평균온도는 모두 꿀벌의 월동에 적정한 범위인 2℃-9℃를 유지하는 것으로 분석되었다(Table 2). 그리고, 월동기간중 외기온이 가장 낮은 시기(1월 13-19일)의 평균 외기온이 -8℃--9℃로 유사한 문경, 상주, 영양, 안동지역의 월동용 저온양봉사의 평균 내부온도는 각각 -2.0℃, -1.0℃, 0.2℃, 4.2℃로 나타나 저장봉군수가 증가함에 따라 월동용 저온양봉사의 내부온도가 증가하여 꿀벌의 월동에 적합한 온도범위를 유지함을 알 수 있었다. 실험기간동안 대부분의 저온양봉사 내부온도는 꿀벌이 월동하기에 적정한 온도범위(2℃-9℃)로 유지하였다(Fig. 1).

We carried out the sensitive high resolution ion microprobe (SHRIMP) zircon U-Pb age dating and whole-rock geochemical analysis of granitoids and felsic porphyries in the Ssangyong Valley, Yongchu Valley, and Mungyeong Saejae geosites in the Mungyeong Geopark. The igneous rocks crop out in the western, northwestern and central parts of the Mungyeong city area, respectively, and intruded (meta)sedimentary successions of the Ogcheon Metamorphic Belt, Cambro-Ordovician Mungyeong Group and Jurrasic Daedong Group. The U-Pb isotopic compositions of zircon from two felsic porphyries and one granite samples in the Ssanyeong Valley yielded the Cretaceous intrusion ages of 93.9±3.3 Ma (tσ), 95.1±4.0 Ma (tσ) and 94.4±2.0 Ma (tσ), respectively. On the other hand, a felsic dike sample and a granite in the Yongchu Valley and a porphyritic granite in the Mungyeong Saejae had intrusion ages of 90.2±2.0 Ma (tσ), 91.0±3.0 Ma (tσ) and 88.6±1.5 Ma (tσ), respectively. Based on the average standard error calculated in combination with results of previous studies in this area (Lee et al., 2010; Yi et al., 2014; Aum et al., 2019), the geochronological results show that spatial variation in intrusion age of ~5 Myr between the Ssangyong (94.5±0.2 Ma) and Yongchu Valleys (89.7±0.4 Ma) is apparent. The geochemical compositions of major and trace elements in the samples showed an affinity of typical post-orogenic granite, indicating their petrogenesis during the late stage of Early Cretaceous magmatic activity possibly in association with subduction events of the Izanagi Plate.

This study was carried out to compare species diversity of soil bacteria from Baekdudaegan mountain forests (Bonghwa-gun, Mungyeong-si and Sangju-si) in Gyeongsangbuk-do and to analyze the effects of soil environments on diversity and population of soil bacteria. Soil bacteria were isolated from soil samples by streak plate method, and identified by DNA extaction and 16S rDNA sequence analyses. The population of soil bacteria from the soil samples of Bonghwa-gun was the highest with $5.1{\times}10^5cfu/g$, and followed by those from Mungyeong-si and Sangju-si with $1.9{\times}10^5cfu/g$ and $1.1{\times}10^5cfu/g$, respectively. The population of soil bacteria from surface layer soil was the highest, and then gradually decreased according to soil depth. The increase in population of soil bacteria from soil samples of different sites was correlated with the increase of the altitude of soil sampling site, depth of A horizon, liquid phase among three phases of soil, water content and bulk density of soil. Two hundreds and sixty eight bacterial colonies from Bonghwa-gun were classified into 10 species, 8 genera. One hundred and thirty four bacterial colonies from Mungyeong-si were classified into 15 species, 9 genera. Forty four bacterial colonies from Sangju-si were classified into 5 species, 2 genera. The dominant species (occupancy rate) from Bonghwa-gun and Mungyeong-si were Bacillus weihenstephanensis (36% and 40%, respectively), and Sangju-si was Bacillus cereus (39%). The relationships between soil environment and community structure of soil bacteria were analyzed statistically by using ecological indices. The diversity, evenness and dominance indices of soil bacteria were 6.30, 2.04 and 0.59 in Bonghwa-gun, 9.09, 2.94 and 0.51 in Mungyeong-si, and 4.55, 2.34 and 0.71 in Sangju-si, respectively. The diversity and evenness indices were increased by the increase of water content, drainage condition and gravel content of soil, while the dominance index was decreased.

Recent seismicity of the central region of South Korea is investigated by using the micro-earthquake data recorded at the seismic network of KNUE(Korea National University of Education) since December, 1997. About two earthquakes are observed each month, which indicates relatively low seismic activities of the region, without showing any temporal characteristics of seismicity. The b-value of the region obtained from the data we used is found to be about 1.15. The epicenters of the micro-earthquakes are mostly located in the Okchon Zone, especially around Munkyong area, Poeun-Sokri Mt.-Youngdong area, and Kunsan-Nonsan area.

본 연구에서는 SIR-C MLC 영상자료와 환경부에서 제공하는 중분류 토지피복도 자료를 참조하여 식생피복지역으로 예상되는 논, 밭 지역으로 분류된 농업지역과 활엽수림, 침엽수림, 혼효림 지역으로 분류된 산림지역에 대한 산란특성을 고찰하기 위해 편광 반응특성을 측정하였다. 편광반응특성분석결과 농업지역과 산림지역의 거동형태는 구형 산란체나 편평한 면에서의 거동특성을 나타냈으며, 측정된 HH, VV, HV 편광매개변수의 후방산란계수 값들은 각각의 지역에서 다른 경향을 보였다.
