우도 내에 분포하는 여러 지질명소에 대해 자연유산적 학술적 가치를 조사하여, 이들의 보전가치와 세계자연유산으로서의 자격을 평가하였다. 우도는 작은 제주도라고 불릴 만큼 제주도 섬 내에 나타나는 다양한 지질유산적 특징을 가진다. 우도 내에는 우도를 형성한 수성화산체인 소머리오름과 소머리오름이 만들어지면서 형성된 여러 화산지형이 분포한다. 이들은 수성화산 분출에 의해 형성된 응회구와 그 위에 흐른 용암, 그리고 용암 내에 발달되어 있는 용암동굴과 화산 분화 후 재동되어 퇴적된 화산쇄설물이다. 플라이스토세에 이르러 수십 차례에 걸쳐 빙하기와 간빙기가 교호하면서 우도는 섬과 육지환경이 계속적으로 반복해 왔다. 마지막 최대 빙하기 이후에 해수면이 현재와 같이 상승한 약 6000년 전부터 우도 주변의 천해환경에서는 많은 탄산염 퇴적물이 형성되기 시작하였다. 특히 우도와 제주도 사이에 존재하는 수심이 20m 이내의 넓은 천해환경은 홍조단괴가 만들어지는 최적의 환경을 제공하였으며, 현재에도 많은 홍조단괴가 자라고 있다. 이렇게 만들어진 홍조단괴는 태풍에 의해 지속적으로 해안가로 운반되어 홍조단괴로만 이루어져 세계 유일이라고 판단되는 해빈퇴적물을 형성하였다. 하지만 이 해빈퇴적물은 전통적으로 학계에 알려진 해빈퇴적물과는 그 성인적 측면에서 구별된다. 전형적인 해빈퇴적물로는 탄산염 퇴적물로만 이루어진 하얀 모래의 하고수동 해빈, 화산쇄설물이 침식되어 퇴적된 검은 모래의 검멀레 해빈, 그리고 주변의 현무암이 침식되어 커다란 자갈로만 이루어진 톨칸이 해빈이 나타난다. 과거 바람에 의해 탄산염 해빈퇴적물이 육지로 운반되어 형성된 사구층이 나타나며, 우도의 북쪽 해안가 세배곶 지역에는 전형적인 해빈의 형성과 태풍의 영향으로 퇴적된 복합적인 성인을 가진 퇴적물도 나타난다. 화산쇄설물로 이루어진 퇴적층을 따라 발달한 해안 절벽에는 파도의 침식에 의해 형성된 해식동굴이 여러 개 발견된다. 특히 수심 10m 부근에 나타나는 수중 해식동굴은 해수면의 변화를 반영하는 뛰어난 지형으로 평가된다. 이러한 우도의 다양한 지질유산은 우도가 매우 뛰어난 지질다양성을 보여주는 장소임을 지시한다. 전 세계에서 우도의 홍조단괴 해빈과 같이 거의 모든 퇴적물이 홍조단괴로만 이루어진 지역은 매우 드물며, 수중폭발에 의해 형성된 소머리오름은 제주도 내에 나타나는 다른 수성화산체인 성산일출봉, 수월봉, 송악산, 용머리 등과 함께 세계자연유산으로 등재될 자격이 있는 것으로 판단된다. 현재 홍조단괴 해빈은 국가지정 천연기념물로 지정되어 있으나 그 지정 지역 밖에도 더 넓은 지역에 홍조단괴가 형성되고 있으므로 보전지역의 확장이 필요하다. 또한 소머리오름도 그 지질유산적 가치의 보전을 위해 천연기념물로 지정할 필요가 있다.

This paper presents a solution by introducing energy storage system(ESS) to solve an annual blackout due to a typhoon or electrical failure in Udo Island. This island is now receiving electrical power through undersea cables from the Jeju Island. During blackout period, ESS will supply the electricity. And it is necessary to estimate the ESS capacity and control the transient state for the operation of stable power system. For the verification of proposed method, ESS capacities have been estimated according to base load and the minimum capacity of only home appliance in Udo Island. Also, in case of restoring from the fault, the algorithm for synchronization is proposed. Finally, the simulation results by using the PSCAD/EMTDC program will show the feasibility.

Udo Island, some 3 km off the coast of Sungsan Peninsula at the eastern promontory of Cheju Island, occurs in such a regular pattern on the sequences which reprent an excellent example of an eruptive cycle. The island comprises a horseshoe-shaped tuff cone, a nested cinder cone on the crater floor, and a lava delta which extends over northwest from the moat between two cones. The volcanic sequences suggest volcanic processes that start with emergent Surtseyan eruption, progress through Strombolian eruption and end with lava effusion followed by reworking of smooth tephra on the tuff cone. Eruptive environment and hydrology of vent area in the Udo tuff cone are poorly constrained because the stratigraphic units under the tuff cone are unknown. It is thoughl, however, that the tuff cone could be mainly emergent because the present cone deposits show no evidence of marine reworking, and standing body of sea water could play a great role. The emergent volcano is characterized by distinctive steam-explosivity that results primarily from a bulk interaction between rapidly ascending magma and a highly mobile slurry. The sea water gets into the vent by flooding accross or through the top or breach of tephra cone. Udo tuff cone was constructed from Surtseyan eruption which went into with tephra finger jetting activities in the early stage, late interspersed with continuous uprush activities and proceeded to only continuous uprush activities in the last. When the enclosure of the vent by a long-lived tephra barrier would prevent the flooding and thus allow the vent to dry out, the Surtseyan eruption ceased to transmit into Strombolian activities, which constructed a cinder cone on the crater floor of the tuff cone. The Strombolian eruption ceased when magma in the conduit gradually became depleted in gas. In the case of Udo, the last magmatic activity was Hawaiian-type (and/or fountain) which accumulated basalt lava delta. And then the loose tephra of the tuff cone reworked over the moat lava and the northeastern flank.

Macroalgae are important primary producers in marine ecosystem. They don't only play an important role as bioindicators but also provide economic resources for humans. Seasonal and vertical variations in seaweed species composition and biomass were examined to determine the ecological status of seaweed beds around Udo, near Jeju Island. We obtained samples at two sites in the high-intertidal to subtidal zones using the quadrat method between June 2010 and May 2011. A total of 262 species were collected, including 31 green, 61 brown, and 170 red algae. The composition of algal species revealed a decrease in species growing in cold water in comparison with the list 20 years ago. The macroalgal mean biomass (g wet wt $m^{-2}$) was 3,476 g and 2,393 g from the two sites, respectively. Ecklonia cava had the greatest biomass at both sites. The seasonal dominant species by biomass at site 1 from the low-intertidal to 1-3 m depth of the subtidal zone was mostly comprised of thick-leathery form, such as Sargassum hemiphyllum, S. coreanum, and Ecklonia cava, whereas site 2 was comprised of the turf form, such as Chondrophycus intermedius, Chondracanthus intermedius, Dictyopteris prolifera, and Gelidium elegans. The current ecological status of the seaweed community in Udo is stable based on diversity and dominance indices.

제주도 동편의 부속섬인 우도는 일윤회 분출에 의해 형성된 단성화산체로서 해저에서 초기 서쩨이언형(Surtseyan-type)의 폭발성 화산분화에서 시작되고 마지막 용암분출로 섬 전체의 형태가 완성되었다. 섬의 대부분을 차지하는 소머리현무암은 서브알칼리계열로서 미량원소 및 희토류원소의 지화학적 특성은 섭입대에서 생성되는 쏠레이아이트일 가능성보다는 지각판내부에서 생성된 쏠레이아이트임을 지시하며, 이는 마이오세 말기 이후의 한반도의 화산활동은 태평양판과 필리핀해판인 해양판의 섭입 영향을 받지 않는 지구조적 환경으로 변했음을 시사한다.

A shallow channel between Jeju and Udo Islands, which is located in the northeastern Jeju Island, is influenced by storm- or typhoon-induced currents and surface waves as well as strong tidal currents. This study examines the typhoon-induced current and wave patterns in the channel, using Acoustic Doppler Current Meter (ADCP) measurements and an ocean-wave coupled modeling experiment. Three typhoons were chosen - Chaba (2016), Soulik (2018), and Lingling (2019) - to investigate the responses of currents and waves in their pathways. During the pre-typhoon periods, dominant northward flow and wave propagation were observed in the channel due to the southeasterly winds before the three typhoons. After the passage of Chaba, which passed over the eastern side of Jeju Island, the northward flow and wave propagation were totally reversed to the opposite direction, which was attributed to the strong northerly winds on the left side of the typhoon. In contrast, in the cases of Soulik and Lingling, which passed over the western side of Jeju Island, strong southerly winds on the right side of the typhoons continuously intensified the northward current and wave propagation in the channel. The model-simulated current and wave fields reasonably coincided with observational data, showing southward/northward flow and wave propagation in response to the right/left side of the typhoon pathways. Typhoon-induced downwind flows, and surface waves could enhance up to 2m/s and 3m due to the strong winds that lasted for more than 12 hours. This suggests that the flow and wave patterns in the Udo channel are highly sensitive to the pathway of typhoons and accompanying winds; thus, this may be a crucial factor with regard to the movement of seabed sediments and subsequent coastal erosion.

Udo Rhodolith Beach is a small-scale, mixed sand-and-gravel beach embayed on the N-S trending rocky coast of Udo, Jeju Island, South Korea. This study analyzes the short-term topographic changes of the beach during the extreme storm conditions of four typhoons from 2016 to 2020: Chaba (2016), Soulik (2018), Lingling (2019), and Maysak (2020). The analysis uses the topographic data of terrestrial LiDAR scanning and drone photogrammetry, aided by weather and oceanographic datasets of wind, wave, current and tide. The analysis suggests two contrasting features of alongshore topographic change depending on the typhoon pathway, although the intensity and duration of the storm conditions differed in each case. During the Soulik and Lingling events, which moved northward following the western sea of the Jeju Island, the northern part of the beach accreted while the southern part eroded. In contrast, the Chaba and Maysak events passed over the eastern sea of Jeju Island. The central part of the beach was then significantly eroded while sediments accumulated mainly at the northern and southern ends of the beach. Based on the wave and current measurements in the nearshore zone and computer simulations of the wave field, it was inferred that the observed topographic change of the beach after the storm events is related to the directions of the wind-driven current and wave propagation in the nearshore zone. The dominant direction of water movement was southeastward and northeastward when the typhoon pathway lay to the east or west of Jeju Island, respectively. As these enhanced waves and currents approached obliquely to the N-S trending coastline, the beach sediments were reworked and transported southward or northward mainly by longshore currents, which likely acts as a major control mechanism regarding alongshore topographic change with respect to Udo Rhodolith Beach. In contrast to the topographic change, the subaerial volume of the beach overall increased after all storms except for Maysak. The volume increase was attributed to the enhanced transport of onshore sediment under the combined effect of storm-induced long periodic waves and a strong residual component of the near-bottom current. In the Maysak event, the raised sea level during the spring tide probably enhanced the backshore erosion by storm waves, eventually causing sediment loss to the inland area.

A tri-spine horseshoe crab, Tachypleus tridentatus (Leach, 1819) was collected from a sandy beach of Udo Island of Jeju during the full moon tides in November 1997. Three spines on the posterior margin of the opisthosoma were characterized indicating that the specimen was T. tridentatus. This specimen was a female with the total length of 49.5 cm and prosoma width of 23.0 cm. Tachypleus tridentatus was the first record from Korean waters. A brief description and figures of the species were given. This finding indicates that Korea is included to the distribution range of the species.
