  • As prevailing synoptic scale westerly wind blowing over high steep Mt. Taegulyang in the west of Kangnung coastal city toward the Sea of Japan became downslope wind and easterly upslope wind combined with both valley wind and sea breeze(valley-sea breeze) also blew from the sea toward the top of the mountain, two different kinds of wind regimes confronted each other in the mid of eastern slope of the mountain and further downward motion of downlsope wind along the eastern slope of the mountain should be prohibited by the upslope wind. Then, the upslope wind away from the eastern slope of the mountain went up to 1700m height over the ground, becoming an easterly return flow in the upper level of the sea. Two kinds of circulations were detected with a small one in the coastal sea and a large one from the coast toward the open sea. Convective boundary layer was developed with a thickness of about 1km over the ground in the upwind side of the mountain in the west, while a thickness of thermal internal boundary layer(TIBL) form the coast along the eastern slope of the mountain was only confined to less than 200m. After sunset, under no prohibition of upslope wind, westerly downslope wind blew from the top of the mountain toward the coastal basin and the downslope wind should be intensified by both mountain wind and land breeze(mountain-land breeze) induced by nighttime radiative cooling of the ground surfaces, resulting in the formation of downslope wind storm. The wind storm caused the development of internal gravity waves with hydraulic jump motion bounding up toward the upper level of the sea in the coastal plain and relatively moderate wind on the sea.

  • The formation of a severe snow storm occurred in the mountainous coastal region near Mt. Taegualyang and Kangnung city in the eastern part of Korea was investigate from 0900LST, December 7 through 9, 2002, using MM5 model. As synoptic scale easterly wind induced a great amount of moisture from the East Sea into the inland coastal region and sea-breeze further induced more moisture from the basin toward the top of the mountain side. The lifted moisture toward the mountain top was cooled down along the eastern slope of the mountain and near the mid of the mountain the moisture was much cooled down with relative humidity of 100% under the air temperature below $O^{\circ}C$, resulting in the formation of snow. Relative humidity of 100% generally occurred at the 5km away from the coast toward the inland mountain and the band of 100% RH was parallel to the coastal line. The 100% band coincided with minimum air temperature band and line.

  • The dispersion of suspended particulates in the coastal complex terrain of mountain-inland basin (city)-sea, considering their recycling was investigated using three-dimensional non-hydrostatic numerical model and lagrangian particle model (or random walk model). Convective boundary layer under synoptic scale westerly wind is developed with a thickness of about I km over the ground in the west of the mountain, while a thickness of thermal internal boundary layer (TIBL) is only confined to less than 200m along the eastern slope of the mountain, below an easterly sea breeze circulation. At the mid of the eastern slop of the mountain, westerly wind confronts easterly sea breeze, which goes to the height of 1700 m above sea level and is finally eastward return flow toward the sea. At this time, particulates floated from the ground surface of the city to the top of TIBL go along the eastern slope of the mountain in the passage of sea breeze, being away the TIBL and reach near the top of the mountain. Then those particulates disperse eastward below the height of sea-breeze circulation and widely spread out over the coastal sea. Total suspended particulate concentration near the ground surface of the city is very low. On the other hand, nighttime radiative cooling produces a shallow nocturnal surface inversion layer (NSIL) of 200 m thickness over the inland surface, but relatively thin thickness less than 100m is found near the mountain surface. As synoptic scale westerly wind should be intensified under the association of mountain wind along the eastern slope of mountain to inland plain and further combine with land-breeze from inland plain toward sea, resulting in strong wind as internal gravity waves with a hydraulic jump motion bounding up to about 1km upper level in the atmosphere in the west of the city and becoming a eastward return flow. Simultaneously, wind near the eastern coastal side of the city was moderate. Since the downward strong wind penetrated into the city, the particulate matters floated near the top of the mountain in the day also moved down along the eastern slope of the mountain, reaching the. downtown and merging in the ground surface inside the NSIL with a maximum ground level concentration of total suspended particulates (TSP) at 0300 LST. Some of them were bounded up from the ground surface to the 1km upper level and the others were forward to the coastal sea surface, showing their dispersions from the coastal NSIL toward the propagation area of internal gravity waves. On the next day at 0600 LST and 0900 LST, the dispersed particulates into the coastal sea could return to the coastal inland area under the influence of sea breeze and the recycled particulates combine with emitted ones from the ground surface, resulting in relatively high TSP concentration. Later, they float again up to the thermal internal boundary layer, following sea breeze circulation.

  • 세계적인 환경오염 규제 및 IMO(국제해사기구)의 선박 연료 황 함유량 제한으로 LNG를 선박의 연료로 사용하는 연구 및 사업이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 연구를 통해 개발된 부유식 LNG 벙커링 터미널(FLBT, Floating LNG bunkering terminal)을 대상으로, STS LNG 벙커링 작업을 위해 이접안 하는 과정을 벙커링 셔틀선의 환경하중을 모형시험과 수치해석으로 평가하였다. 고차경계요소법을 이용한 수치해석으로 가까운 위치에서 상호작용 하는 4척 선박들의 파랑표류력 변화를 검토하였다. 다양한 이접안 거리에 따라 파랑표류력이 크게 변함을 확인 했다. 모형시험은 선박해양플랜트연구소의 해양공학수조에서 이루어졌다. 모형시험에서는 예인선을 모사하여 대상선박을 밀고 당길 수 있는 치구를 고안하였으며 접안시 마찰력 등의 영향 없이 선박을 밀 수 있도록 하였다. 모형시험 결과 LNG벙커링 선박은 대부분의 1년 환경조건에서 안전한 이접안이 가능하였다. 파랑 방향에 따라 안정성의 차이가 존재함으로, FLBT의 Heading conrol 기능을 적용하여 횡파를 피한다면 더욱 안정적인 운용이 가능할 것이다.

  • Structural, radioactive, petrological, petrochemical, mineralogical and stable isotopic study as well as the review of previous studies of the uranium-bearing slates in the Ogcheon sequence were carried out to examine the lithological and structural controls, and geochemical environment in the uranium deposition in the sequence. And the study was extended to the coal-bearing formation (Jangseong Series-Permian) to compare the geochemical and sedimentologic aspects of uranium chemistry between Ogcheon and Hambaegsan areas. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The uranium mineralization occurs in the carbonaceous black slates of the middle to lower Guryongsan formation and its equivalents in the Ogcheon sequence. In general, two or three uranium-bearing carbonaceous beds are found with about 1 to 1.5km stratigraphic interval and they extend from Chungju to Jinsan for 90km in distance, with intermittent igneous intrusions and structural Jisturbances. Average thickness of the beds ranges from 20 to 1,500m. 2. These carbonaceous slate beds were folded by a strong $F_1$-fold and were refolded by subsequent $F_1$-fold, nearly co-axial with the $F_1$, resulting in a repeated occurrence of similar slate. The carbonaceous beds were swelled in hing zones and were shrinked or thined out in limb by the these foldings. Minor faulting and brecciation of the carbonaceous beds were followed causing metamorphism of these beds and secondary migration and alteration of uranium minerals and their close associations. 3. Uranium-rich zones with high radioactive anomalies are found in Chungju, Deogpyong-Yongyuri, MiwonBoun, Daejeon-Geumsan areas in the range of 500~3,700 cps (corresponds to 0.017~0.087%U). These zones continue along strike of the beds for several tens to a few hundred meters but also discontinue with swelling and pinches at places that should be analogously developed toward underground in their vertical extentions. The drilling surveyings in those area, more than 120 holes, indicate that the depth-frequency to uranium rich bed ranging 40~160 meter is greater. 4. The features that higher radioactive anomalies occur particularly from the carbonaceous beds among the argillaceous lithologic units, are well demonstrated on the cross sections of the lithology and radioactive values of the major uranium deposits in the Ogcheon zone. However, one anomalous radioactive zone is found in a l:ornfels bed in Samgoe, near Daejeon city. This is interpreted as a thermal metamorphic effect by which original uranium contents in the underlying black slate were migrated into the hornfels bed. 5. Principal minerals of the uranium-bearing black slates are quartz, sericite, biotite and chlorite, and as to chemical composition of the black slates, $Al_2O_3$ contents appear to be much lower than the average values by its clarke suggesting that the Changri basin has rather proximal to its source area. 6. The uranium-bearing carbonaceous beds contain minor amounts of phosphorite minerals, pyrite, pyrrhotite and other sulfides but not contain iron oxides. Vanadium. Molybdenum, Barium, Nickel, Zirconium, Lead, Cromium and fixed Carbon, and some other heavy metals appear to be positive by correlative with uranium in their concentrations, suggesting a possibility of their genetic relationships. The estimated pH and Eh of the slate suggests an euxenic marine to organic-rich saline water environment during uranium was deposited in the middle part of Ogcheon zone. 7. The Carboniferous shale of Jangseong Series(Sadong Series) of Permian in Hambaegsan area having low radioactivity and in fluvial to beach deposits is entirely different in geochemical property and depositional environment from the middle part of Ogcheon zone, so-called "Pibanryong-Type Ogcheon Zone". 8. Synthesizing various data obtained by several aspects of research on uranium mineralization in the studied sequence, it is concluded that the processes of uranium deposition were incorporated with rich organic precipitation by which soluble uranyl ions, $U{_2}^{+{+}}$ were organochemically complexed and carried down to the pre-Ogcheon sea bottoms formed in transitional environment, from Red Sea type basin to Black Sea type basin. Decomposition of the organic matter under reducing conditions to hydrogen sulfide, which reduced the $UO{_2}^{+2}$ ions to the insoluble uranium dioxide($UO_2$), on the other side the heavy metals are precipitated as sulfides. 9. The EPMA study on the identification of uraninite and others and the genetic interpretation of uranium bearing slates by isotopic values of this work are given separately by Yun, S. in 1984.

  • Petrochemical, K-Ar dating, Sand Rb/Sr isotopes, metallogenic zoning, paleomagnetic and geotectonic studies of the Gyongsang basin were carried out to examine applicability of plate tectonics to the post-late Cretaceous igneous activity and metallogeny in the southeastern part of Korean Peninsula. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Bulgugsa granitic rocks range from granite to adamellite, whose Q-Ab-Or triangular diagram indicates that the depth and pressure at which the magma consolidated increase from coast to inland varying from 6 km, 0.5-3.3 kb in the coastal area to 17 km, 0.5-10 kb in the inland area. 2. The volcanic rocks in Gyongsang basin range from andesitic to basaltic rocks, and the basaltic rocks are generally tholeiitic in the coastal area and alkali basalt in the inland area. 3. The volcanic rocks of the area have the initial ratio of Sr^{87}/Sr^{86} varying from 0.706 to 0.707 which suggests a continental origin; the ratio of Rb/Sr changing from 0.079-0.157 in the coastal area to 0.021-0.034 in the inland area suggests that the volcanism is getting younger toward coastal side, which may indicate a retreat in stage of differentiation if they were derived from a same magma. The K_2O/SiO_2 (60%) increases from about 1.0 in the coastal area to about 3.0 in the inland area, which may suggest an increase indepth of the Benioff zone, if existed, toward inland side. 4. The K-Ar ages of volcanic rocks were measured to be 79.4 m.y. near Daegu, and 61.7 m.y. near Busan indicating a southeastward decrease in age. The ages of plutonic rocks also decrease toward the same direction with 73 m.y. near Daegu, and 58 m.y. near Busan, so that the volcanism predated the plutonism by 6 m.y. in the continental interior and 4 m.y. along the coast. Such igneous activities provide a positive evidence for an applicability of plate tectonics to this area. 5. Sulfur isotope analyses of sulfide minerals from 8 mines revealed that these deposits were genetically connected with the spacially associated ingeous rocks showing relatively narrow range of ${\delta}^{34}S$ values (-0.9‰ to +7.5‰ except for +13.3 from Mulgum Mine). A sequence of metallogenic zones from the coast to the inland is delineated to be in the order of Fe-Cu zone, Cu-Pb-Zn zone, and W-Mo zone. A few porphyry type copper deposits are found in the Fe-Cu zone. These two facts enable the sequence to be comparable with that of Andean type in South America. 6. The VGP's of Cretaceous and post Cretaceous rocks from Korea are located near the ones($71^{\circ}N$, $180^{\circ}E$ and $90^{\circ}N$, $110^{\circ}E$) obtained from continents of northern hemisphere. This suggests that the Korean peninsula has been stable tectonically since Cretaceous, belonging to the Eurasian continent. 7. Different polar wandering path between Korean peninsula and Japanese islands delineates that there has been some relative movement between them. 8. The variational feature of declination of NRM toward northwestern inland side from southeastern extremity of Korean peninsula suggests that the age of rocks becomes older toward inland side. 9. The geological structure(mainly faults) and trends of lineaments interpreted from the Landsat imagery reveal that NNE-, NWW- and NEE-trends are predominant in the decreasing order of intensity. 10. The NNE-trending structures were originated by tensional and/or compressional forces, the directions of which were parallel and perpendicular respectively to the subduction boundary of the Kula plate during about 90 m.y. B.P. The NWW-trending structures were originated as shear fractures by the same compressional forces. The NEE-trending structures are considered to be priginated as tension fractures parallel to the subduction boundary of the Kula plate during about 70 m.y. B.P. when Japanese islands had drifted toward southeast leaving the Sea of Japan behind. It was clearly demonstrated by many authors that the drifting of Japanese islands was accompanied with a rotational movement of a clock-wise direction, so that it is inferred that subduction boundary had changed from NNE- to NEE-direction. A number of facts and features mentioned above provide a suite of positive evidences enabling application of plate tectonics to the late Cretaceous-early Tertiary igneous activity and metallogeny in the area. Synthesizing these facts, an arc-trench system of continental margin-type is adopted by reconstructing paleogeographic models for the evolution of Korean peninsula and Japan islands. The models involve an extention mechanism behind the are(proto-Japan), by which proto-Japan as of northeastern continuation of Gyongsang zone has been drifted rotationally toward southeast. The zone of igneous activity has also been migrated from the inland in late-Cretaceous to the peninsula margin and southwestern Japan in Tertiary.

  • 한국해양과학기술원에서는 심해열수광상탐사를 위하여 2009년에 남서태평양 라우분지의 열수광상유망지역에 대하여 지구물리조사를 실시하였다. 그 중 TA19-1 해산과 TA19-2 해산에 대한 해상자력탐사 결과를 이용하여 이 해산들의 지자기 특성을 분석하였다. TA19-1 해산은 단순한 1개의 원추형 형태로 정상부는 함몰된 칼데라를 가진다. TA19-2 해산은 TA19-1 해산에 비해 규모가 크고 대규모 함몰대를 가진 칼데라가 나타나고, 칼데라 서쪽으로 정상부가 나타나며 능선들도 여러개 존재하는 형태로서 TA19-1 해산에 비해 복잡한 해저지형을 가지고 있다. TA19-1 해산의 자기이상은 정상부를 중심으로 북쪽에는 고이상대가 남쪽에는 저이상대가 나타나는 단순 쌍극자 이상 형태로 분포하고 있다. TA19-2 해산의 자기이상은 해산 북쪽 사면에 고이상대들이 위치하고 있고, 칼데라 서쪽에 위치한 정상부를 중심으로 고이상대가 나타나고 그 주변 및 칼데라 주위로 저이상대가 분포하며 TA19-1 해산에 비교하여 복잡한 형태의 자기이상을 나타낸다. 해저지형, 지자기 자료의 결과는 TA19-2 해산이 TA19-1 해산에 비해 복잡한 화산활동의 결과로 형성되었다는 것을 지시한다. 열수분출대의 가능성이 높은 저자화이상대들은 주로 해산의 정상부 및 칼데라와 칼데라 주변부에 주로 나타나는데 이는 단층 및 균열 등에 따른 열수 분출에 의한 암석 변질의 영향 등으로 판단되며, 정상부와 칼데라 내에 나타나는 높은 고자화대는 volcanic sill, intrusion 등 후기 화성활동과 연관성이 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • 한반도의 지형적 특성을 설명하기 위해서는 한반도가 경험해온 지반운동의 공간적 분포와 그 원인을 파악하는 작업이 선행되어야 한다. 지리학계에서는 지난 반세기 동안, 지반운동과 관련된 각종 지형요소들(경동성지형, 침식면, 평탄면, 하안단구, 해안단구 등)을 대상으로 활발한 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 하지만, 아직까지도 한반도의 지반운동의 특성에 대한 이해는 극히 제한되어 있다. 이 연구는 수치고도모델(Digital Elevation Model)의 분석을 통해 한반도에서 일어난 지반운동의 공간적인 분포특성을 규명하는 것이 목적이다. 먼저 지반운동과 지표삭박작용간의 상관관계를 이론적으로 검토한 뒤, 과거 존재했을 것으로 추정되는 지형면을 추출하는 일련의 지형분석기법을 개발하였다. 개발된 기법은 유역분수계의 고도가 삭박이 이루어지기 전의 지형특성을 지시해주는 증거로 가정한 뒤, DEM으로부터 과거의 지형면(준지형면)들을 추출하는 것이었다. DEM으로부터 추출된 준지형면들은 뚜렷한 공간적 패턴을 보여줌과 동시에 일정한 방향성을 보여준다. 준지형면들을 서로 연결한 한 선을 이 연구에서는 준지형면축으로 규정하였다. 준지형면축은 다시 지반운동의 융기축을 지시해주는 융기준지형면축과, 융기와 더불어 진행되는 삭박작용에 의해 계단상의 준지형면이 관찰되는 침식준지형면축으로 구분하였다. 한반도에서는 모두 13개의 준지형면축이 나타나며, 이들의 방향성과 길이, 그리고 상대적인 융기량은 지역별로 큰 차이를 보였다. 준지형면의 분포와 준지형면축의 특성을 종합적으로 고려한 결과, 한반도를 구성하는 4개의 지반운동구를 확인할 수 있었다. 이 연구에서는 이들을 각각 북부지반운동구, 중부지반운동구, 남부지반운동구, 그리고 동해안지반운동구로 명명하였다. 북부지반운동구는 개마고원을 중심으로 지역적인 융기를 경험하였으며, 서쪽과 동쪽, 그리고 남쪽방향으로는 점진적인 융기량의 감소를 보인다. 중부지반운동구는 동해에 면한 태백산축이 원호형으로 급격한 융기를 보인 반면, 서해안쪽으로는 점진적인 융기량의 감소를 보여준다. 남부지반운동구는 이 지역을 수직으로 관통하는 덕유산-지리산을 중심으로 한 융기축을 중심으로 서측보다는 동측의 융기량이 높은 비대칭적 지반운동의 특성을 보여준다. 남동부해안지역과 길주-명천지구대를 중심으로는 비교적 최근까지도 활발한 지반운동을 보이는 동해안지반운동구가 나타나고 있다. 이 연구는 한반도가 경험해왔던 지반운동의 공간적 차이를 가시적으로 보여주고 있어, 한반도의 장기적인 지형발달과 지역적인 지형특색의 차이를 설명하는데 유용한 기초자료를 제공할 것으로 기대된다.
