The purpose of this study is to analyze the geomorphic characteristics of two erosional basins with same geological conditions. The study areas, the Okcheon basin ($36^{\circ}\;14'{\sim}36^{\circ}\;20'\;N,\;127^{\circ}\;32'\;30"{\sim}127^{\circ}\;37'\;37"\;E$) and Jincheon basin($36^{\circ}\;48'{\sim}37^{\circ}\;03'\;N,\;127^{\circ}\;22'{\sim}127^{\circ}\;36'\;E$), are located on middle part of the Geum river. The geological maps, a summit level map, and a drainage network map are created and analyzed the geomorphic characteristics. The main results are as follows: 1) The Okcheon basin and Jincheon basin are typical erosional basin, in which basin floor are composed of granite. 2) The formation of Okcheon basin and Jincheon basin resulted from differencial erosion after upwarping. 3) Okcheon basin and Jincheon basin are available for specialized agriculture area and a site of new settlement with satisfactory to accessibility.

In order to assess the hydraulic effects of flow pattern changes and geomorphological evolution around spur dikes, this study carried out monitoring and numerical simulation on the changes of morphologic characteristics around spur dikes that settled in the bend of the Yeongcheon River. The study site spanned 190 m, and spur dikes were installed in March 2008. Monitoring of the site started in May 2008 and was completed in April 2014. When the water level was higher than the height of the spur dikes, the spur dikes extrude flow from the bank. Therefore, the spur dikes that were built to stabilize the channel have been effectively performing hydraulic functions. With the passing of time, the channel was stabilized and pools formed around the spur dike toes by local scouring. It was confirmed that spur dikes created various physical characteristics in the aspect of channel topography, with sediments deposits occurring between the spur dikes, while riffles and pools formed in the channel.

This paper outlines a new approach to the line generalization when preparing small scale map on the basis of existing large scale digital map. Line generalizations are conducted based on Douglas algorithm using 1/25,000 scale topographic maps of southeastern JEJU island which produced by National Geographic Institute to analyze the fitness to the original and problems of graphical representation. Compare to the same scale map which was generated by manual method, a verity of small, but sometimes significant errors ＆ modification of topological relationship have been detected. The research gives full details of three algorithms that operationalize the smallest visible object method, together with some empirical results. A comparison of the results produced by the new algorithms with those produced by manual generalization and Douglas method of data reduction is provided. Also this paper presents the preliminary results of an relationships between the size of smallest visual object and requiring data storages for each algorithms.

The paleoseismological importance of the Yangsan fault zone was examined by historical earthquake data, aerial photograph, and trench survey of the area. Occurrences of great earthquakes during the historical time indicate that the Yangsan and/or Ulsan fault have been active during the late Quaternary and generated historical events. Geomorphological evidences of the recent fault activity are clearly shown both in the northern segment (Yugye-ri, Tosung-ri and Naengsu-ri areas) and in the southern segment (Eonyang to Tongdosa areas) of the Yangsan fault. The main Yangsan fault is characterized by fault gouges and NNE-SSW lineaments. The reverse faulting in the Yugye-ri area generated about three-mater displacement of the lower terrace deposits. On the other hand, a major strike-slip movement with a minor component of 5-12 m vertical displacement was identified by the offset of the higher terrace surface in the Eonyang area.

토양수분은 지표수가 증발, 유출, 침투되는 과정에 중요한 역할을 하는 수문 인자로, 수문학적인 관점에서 물 순환을 이해하는 데 필수적인 요소이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 토양 내 수분을 측정하는 데 어려움이 많아 국내에서는 토양수분의 지속적인 관측을 위한 관측소 운영이 원활하게 이루어지지 않고 있으며, 주로 유전율식 계측 방식을 통해 지점 기반의 토양수분 자료를 생산하는데 그치고 있다. 최근 발사된 토양수분 위성인 SMAP (Soil Moisture Active Passive)을 비롯한 위성기반의 토양수분 자료와 융합하여 사용하기 위해서는 지점에서의 토양수분 네트워크가 우선적으로 구축되어야 하나, 관측소의 수도 부족할 뿐 아니라, 지형이 복잡하고 산지가 많은 한반도에서는 점 단위의 토양수분 자료의 공간적 대표성이 부족하여 활용에 어려움이 많다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 운영중인 지점 기반의 토양수분 관측소의 FDR (Frequency Domain Reflectometry), TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) 센서를 함께 활용하여 산악지형에서의 Cosmic-ray 기반 토양수분자료를 생산하고자 한다. 산악지형에서의 Cosmic-ray 센서는 토양 유기물과 식생 차단 등에 의한 영향이 많으므로 평지에서 토양수분을 산정하기 위한 교정 함수들의 비교 및 평가를 실시하였다. 일반적으로 평지에서 활용되는 교정 함수들은 강우에 따른 토양수분의 거동을 잘 나타내고 있는 것으로 확인되었으나, 갑작스러운 강우로 인한 식생 차단과 토양 유기물의 영향이 커지는 경우 토양수분의 급격한 변동성을 표현하기에는 한계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구를 기반으로 산악지형에서 Cosmic-ray 센서에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 분석할 수 있으며, 추후 산악지형에서 지역 규모의 토양수분을 관측할 수 있는 관측소를 구축하는데 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

This study developed a Bayesian spatial regional frequency analysis, which aimed to analyze spatial patterns of design rainfall by incorporating geographical information (e.g. latitude, longitude and altitude) and climate characteristics (e.g. annual maximum series) within a Bayesian framework. There are disadvantages to considering geographical characteristics and to increasing uncertainties associated with areal rainfall estimation on the existing regional frequency analysis. In this sense, this study estimated the parameters of Gumbel distribution which is a function of geographical and climate characteristics, and the estimated parameters were spatially interpolated to derive design rainfall over the entire Han-river watershed. The proposed Bayesian spatial regional frequency analysis model showed similar results compared to L-moment based regional frequency analysis, and even better performance in terms of quantifying uncertainty of design rainfall and considering geographical information as a predictor.

지리적으로 이격된 마산과 서부산 지역의 불국사 화강암 분포지에서 정량적인 풍화도를 판별하기 위해 화학적 풍화지수와 등급을 산정하였다. 연구를 위해 채취된 시료에 대해 풍화 생성광물 동정, 전암분석, 산침수에 의한 이온용출 시험을 실시하였으며, 풍화지수와 지형적인 요소와 풍화속도를 고려하여 풍화등급들 산정하였다. 분석 결과 동일한 물리적, 광물학적 특성을 가지고 있으나 풍화에 따라 생성되는 점토광물의 종류와 함량에서 차이를 보여주며, 풍화의 진행 경로과 범위는 매우 상이한 결과를 보여 준다. 이러한 결과는 암석의 풍화가 모암의 조건 외에 지형, 지질구조, 기온, 강수량과 같은 환경적인 요소에 밀접하게 관련되어 있는 것을 의미할 뿐만 아니라 풍화도 산정에서 환경적인 요소에 대한 해석이 반드시 요구된다.

본 연구는 우리나라의 수치지형도에서 수치고도모형(DEM)을 개발하고자 할 때 고려해야 할 요인들을 분석하였다. 특히 DEM의 정확도에 결정적으로 영향을 미치는 내삽법의 과정을 지형적 유형(평지.계곡.산지)과 공간적 표본추출법(체계적추출법.군집형무작위추출법.복합점진적표본추출법)에 따라 구분하여 살펴 보았다. RMSE의 측정을 통해 크리깅 내삽법이 지형의 기복에 산관없이 정확도를 유지함녀서 DEM을 생성할 수 있는 방법으로 평가되었다. 그리고 표본추출법에 따라 공간적 표본 밀도를 달리한 낮은 표본을 대상으로 한 경우에 비해 낮게 나타났다. 또한 본 연구에서 제안한 복합 점진적 표본추출법을 적용한 DEM의 정확도는 다른 표본추출법을 적용한 경우보다 그 정확도가 향상됨을 확인하였고, 반면에 계산상의 효율성이 다른 방법에 비해 떨어지는 단점을 보였다.

Due to the increasing demand to utilize water fronts and water resource effectively, a multi-dimensional model that provides detailed hydraulic characteristics is required in order to improve the decision making process. An EFDC model is a kind of multi-dimension model, and it requires detailed 3D (3-dimensional) terrain in order to simulate the hydraulic characteristics of stream flow. In the case of 3D terrain creation, especially river reaches, measurement resolution and spatial interpolation methods affect the detailed 3D topography which uses input data for EFDC simulation. Such results make hydraulic characteristics to be varied. This study aims to examine EFDC simulation results depending on the 3D topographies derived by separate measurement resolution and spatial interpolation methods. The study area is at the confluence of the Nakdong and Kuemho Rivers and the event rain implemented was Typhoon Ewiniar in 2006. As a result, in the case of the area-elevation curve, the difference by means of the interpolation methods was significant when applying the same measurement resolution, except at 160m resolution. Furthermore, when the measurement resolution was 80m or above, the difference in a cross-section was occurred. Meanwhile, the water level changes between interpolation methods were insignificant by the measurement resolution except when the Kriging method was used for the 160m measurement data. Velocity changes emerged according to the interpolation methods when measurement resolution was 80m or above and the Kriging method resulted in a velocity that had a considerable gap in relation to the results from other methods at a measurement resolution of 160m.

In this study we examined the geomorphological and geological characteristics of the granite landforms in the Iksan area. Moreover we investigated the source areas of stones which are used to build the Mieruksaji west stone pagoda. Joint is most identifiable geomorphological and geological structure in the Iksan area. Direction of J1 joint appears to be N71°E∼EW, and that of J2 joint ranges N20°W∼N20°E. Cross-pattern joint is predominant in the study area, and linen.-pattern vertical joint is also observed. Tor and corestone are easily found as geomorphological features in the study area. Corestones forming for are almost 2∼3 m across and 2∼3 m or over 5 m high. Their hardness is mainly of hammer bounce. Tower-type and castle-type of for are characteristic in the Mireuksan granites. Other geomorphological features such as tafoni, gnamma are also observed in the study area. Petrographical and geochemical features of the stones used for the Mireuksaji west stone pagoda are compared with those of the granites cropped out nearby, and indicate that the stones from the Mieruksaji west stone pagoda are quite similar to the Mireuksan granites. In the Mireuksan we can easily find lots of old traces for rock cutting.
