제주도의 지하수는 상위지하수, 기저지하수, 연안용출수, 심부지하수 등으로 분류될 수 있다. 이들을 효율적으로 활용하고 또 보존, 관리하기 위하여는 탐사가 선행되어야 한다. 구성물질의 물성대비를 탐사의 원리로 하는 물리탐사는 간접적 정보를 제공한다는 점에서 조사단계에서 흔히 간과되어 왔으나, 지표 상부에서 지하 심부까지의 정보를 제공할 수 있는 유일한 탐사방법이라는 점에서 그 중요성이 재인식되어야 한다. 물리탐사는 비파괴적인 탐사방법일 뿐 아니라 날은 탐사범위를 상대적으로 짧은 기간에 탐사할 수 있는 경제성을 갖고 있기 때문에 결과적으로 조사단계에서 소요되는 총비용을 현저히 줄일 수 있기 때문이다. 필자는 여기서, 제주도의 지하수문제에 대하여 물리탐사가 담당할 수 있는 역할에 대하여 최근의 탐사실례들을 통하여 기술하고자 한다. 이들 중에는 '복합 물리탐사방법에 의한 지하수탐사', '항공원격탐사에 의한 해안 용출수탐사', '물리탐사에 의한 해수침입영역 조사' 그리고 지하수 부존과 밀접한 관련이 있는 '지질구조선 탐사' 등이 포함되어 있다. 후속의 지질조사와 시추조사에서 얻은 직접적 정보들이 물리탐사에 의한 해석에 feedback 될 수 있는 조사체계를 갖춘다면 향후 제주도의 지하수와 관련한 문제에 물리탐사가 보다 효과적으로 사용될 수 있을 것임을 강조한다.

Among the geophysical exploration methods, electromagnetic method(EM) has the broadest range of instrumental systems and remarkable range of applications. There are a lot of available techniques and instruments which have different depth of investigation and resolution depending on the operating frequency and source-receiver configuration. Furthermore, it is very easy to apply on the engineering and environmental problems since modern EM equipments are remarkably portable, considering their sophistication. Even though electromagnetic theory is very complex and not easy to understand, rapid avances in recent computer technology have made it possible to conduct accurate forward modeling and inversion of various EM exploration data. Here, we are going to provide brief theoretical principles, survey techniques and case histories of some selected EM methods that can be applied to geotechnical and environmental problems in Korea.

The geophysical data management system was developed to meet both the increasing demands of geophysical data in the practical application of civil engineering, underground water survey, and environmental problems and needs for digital archive and quality control of geophysical data. The system for a data manager is developed under Client/Server (C/S) environment. This manager system is characterized by a relational geophysical database system using MS SQL-server, standardization of geophysical data format, the development of C/S interface program for Windows environment, and the development of transfer program module for the searched data. The system developed for a general user under the internet environment is characterized by Web service (URL:http//geophy.kigam.re.kr) and the development of plug-in module to visualize geophysical image data.

Magnetic method is rapid, cheap and simple geophysical exploration technique, and has wide range of applications such as resources prospecting, geological structure investigation and even geotechnical and environmental problems. Especially, aeromagnetics gives fundamental and useful geoscientific data fnr not only assessment of potential resources, but also national land planning. Magnetic method, perhaps the oldest geophysical technique, was relatively early introduced into Korea. Documents during Japanese occupation says that magnetic method was used for exploring metallic ore deposits and hot spring, and that a geomagnetic observatory was operated. From mid 1950's, after Korean War, magnetic explorations for natural resources such as metallic ore, uranium, coal, and groundwater were intensively executed for industrialization. Apache aeromagnetic survey project during $1958{\sim}1959$ and its ground follow-up surveys are typical and important cases in those days. Magnetic survey techniques were rapidly advanced during 1970's and 1980's with improvements of instruments, growth of geophysical manpower, and availability of computers. The national aeromagnetic mapping project by KIGAM in 1981 showed the improved technical capability of those days. Decline of mining industry since mid 1980's moved the exploration objects from traditional resources to new ones such as groundwater and geothermal resources, and applications to investigation of geological structure were revived. Recently appeared applications such as natural hazard assessment, and engineering and environmental studies increased the magnetic method's utility in the realm of exploration.

토양${\cdot}$지하수환경분야와 관련된 제도들이 최근 개정 움직임을 보이고 있는 시점에서 조사단계 및 처리단계이후의 유지관리분야에서 지구물리탐사분야의 중요성이 점차 인식되고 있다. 특히 토양${\cdot}$지하수오염과 관련하여 오염유발가능시설의 $80\%$가 농촌지역에 산재되어 있으나, 그 규모와 오염정도에 대한 조사가 제대로 이루어지지 않은 상태이다. 이에 따라 지하수의 수질은 점차적으로 저질화 되어가고 있으나 비가시적인 이유로 인하여 그동안 소홀히 다루어져 왔다. 또한 오염조사 및 오염복원 등이 제도적으로 뿌리내리지 못해 오염원의 범위, 정도 등을 확인하는데 많은 한계점을 드러내고 있는 현실이다. 최근 관계법령의 개정을 통해 보다 엄격하고 강화된 규제 및 책임을 법제화하는 일은 현재와 미래의 환경보전을 위해 다행한 일이라 하겠다. 특히, 지하수오염 등은 국가적인 불행한 일이므로 향후 토양${\cdot}$지하수환경에 막대한 영향을 미칠 오염인자에 대한 정밀실태조사가 시급히 이루어져야 할 것이다. 따라서 현재 개정을 추진하고 있는 토양환경보전법과 지하수법의 개정취지를 제대로 살리면서 환경오염에 능동적으로 대처하기 위하여 지구물리탐사분야와 지질조사분야에서의 다양하고 정밀한 조사를 위한 방법들과 내용에 대한 연구가 절실히 요구되고 있다. 또한 이와 더불어 오염부지 특성조사를 위한 절차 및 방법들이 구체적으로 법제화되어 할 것이다.

Recently, safety and environmental concerns have become major social issues. Especially, a special underground-safety law has been made and enacted to prevent ground subsidence around construction sites. For environmental problems, several researches have started or will start on characterization of contaminated sites, in-situ environmental remediation in subsurface, and monitoring of remediation results. As a part of the researches, geophysical surveys, which have been mainly applied to explore mineral resources, geological features or ground, are used to characterize not only contaminated areas but also fluid flow paths in subsurface environments. As a basic study for the application of geophysical surveys to detect contamination in subsurface, this paper analyzes previous researches to understand changes in geophysical properties of contaminated zones by various contaminants such as leachate, heavy metals, and non-adequate phase liquid (NAPL). Furthermore, this paper briefly introduces how geophysical surveys like direct-current electrical resistivity, induced polarization and ground penetration radar surveys can be applied to detect each contamination, before analyzing case studies of the applications in contaminated areas by NAPL, leachate, heavy metal or nitrogen oxides.

Considering importance and specificity, site investigations for deep geological disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel require stringent quality control, unlike general geotechnical investigations for tunnels and bridges. In this study, we present a case of selecting geophysical survey method for individual site investigation stage and preparing geophysical survey guideline. The proposed geophysical survey guidelines include procedures, considerations, and quality control for exploration planning, data acquisition, data processing, and interpretation. They comprehensively summarize the contents of airborne electromagnetic survey and seismic reflection survey.
