To examine saturation characteristics of an unsaturated soil in the steep slope area with collapse, it separated dry season from rainy season and measured water content and permeability, and measured permeability by using a tension infiltrometer in the site. In addition, it conducted electrical resistivity survey to look into thickness of ground and geological structure of underground. The collapsed slope increased depth of weathered zone compared to upper slope, and there electrical resistivity anomalous zone caused by the filtrated underground water was observed. The permeability of the collapsed area was observed high compared to upper and lower slopes of retarding basin without collapse, and the permeability measured by dividing the dry season and rainy season was measured high in case of dry season.

Using an oedometer cell instrumented to measure the evolution of electromagnetic properties, small strain stiffness, and temperature, we conducted consolidation tests on four types of sediments. The tested specimens include sediments with different gas hydrate saturation at four stages of loading. The test results show that the electromagnetic and mechanical properties of hydrate-bearing marine sediments are governed by the vertical effective stress, stress history, porosity, hydrate saturation, fabric, ionic concentration of the pore fluid, and temperature. The results also show that permittivity and electrical conductivity data can be combined to estimate hydrate volume fraction in laboratory sediments, methodology that might eventually be extended for estimation of hydrate concentrations in field settings.

신뢰성 높은 수위-유량관계곡선식을 산정하기 위해서 정확한 유량측정 자료를 수집하는 것은 대단히 중요하다. 정확한 유량측정 자료를 판단하는 대표적인 지표 중 하나가 바로 불확실도이다. 따라서 하천에서 측정되는 유량의 정확성을 높이기 위해서는 과거에 측정된 자료에 대한 불확실도를 정량적인 비교분석과 고찰을 통해 개선하는 것이 바람직하다. ISO는 무작위 불확실도와 계통 불확실도를 산정하여 결합한 후, 총 불확실도를 산정하는 방법을 사용하고 있으며, USGS(U.S. Geological Survey) 불확실도의 산정은 경험식을 통한 개별적인 성분을 평가하고 각각의 성분을 이용하여 불확실도를 산정하게 된다. 따라서, 유량측정성과의 정확도를 판단하기 위하여 과거 낙동강 유역에서 측정된 유속계 성과를 바탕으로 ISO기준 신뢰도 95%와 USGS기준 신뢰도 68%에 대한 불확실도를 산정하여 비교분석 및 평가를 실시하였다.

The purpose of this study is to determine the stratigraphy of the volcanic rocks in the Chilpo-Weolpo area, the north of Pohang basin, based on field survey and lithological properties of the rocks. The volcanic pile(Chilpo tuff) overlies the Cretaceous sedimentary formation and is unconformably overlain by the Miocene Yeonil Group. The Chilpo tuff comprises a thick sequence(>200m) of pyroclastic flow deposits. Five members are distinguished, each representing separate flow units, comprising none(or weakly) to densely welded rhyolite tuff. The Chilpo tuff consists of, in ascending order, greenish weakly welded tuff, volcanic conglomerate, alternation of tuff breccias and fine tuffs, greenish none to densely welded tuff and red-brownish densely to weakly welded vitric tuff. This study revealed that the volcanic rocks in this area were formed by 4 volcanic stages. On the basis of K-Ar age($44.7{\pm}1.1\;Ma$) and lithologic data, geological age of the Chilpo tuff may be Eocene.

The purpose of this study is to analyze landslide that occurred in Yongin area in 1991 using spatial database. For this, landslide locations are detected from aerial photographs interpretation and field survey. The locations of landslide, topography, soil, forest and geology were constructed to spatial database using Geographic Information System (GIS). To establish occurrence factors of landslide, slope, aspect and curvature of topography were calculated from the topographic database. Texture, material, drainage and effective thickness of soil were extracted from the soil database, and type, age, diameter and density of wood were extracted from the forest database. Lithology was extracted from the geological database, and land use was classified from the TM satellite image. Landslide was analyzed using spatial correlation between the landslide and the landslide occurrence factors by bivariate probability methods. GIS was used to analyze vast data efficiently and statistical programs were used to maintain specialty and accuracy. The result can be used to prevention of hazard, land use planning and construction planning as basic data.

Lands along the coast may be submerged in high water because of erosion by sea water, collapsing by itself, excavation by animals, and by tidal movement. From a cadastral point of view, some mistakes in registering a parcel located along the coast may cause the parcel to seem to be collapsed. Therefore, geological, physical oceanographic, and cadastral and topographic investigation are necessary to verify that the submerged land in high water collapsed after it was registered. This paper presents a cadastral and topographic investigation for proving a parcel has collapsed under the sea after registered. In this study, cadastral records and the boundary on cadastral maps were examined carefully to find any errors in them. If the topographic maps were drawn when the parcel was registered, it is good proof of topography of the land at that time. Topographic maps drawn recently were compared to those in the 1900s and in 1970s. In conclusion, cadastral records and maps as well as topographic maps play an important role in proving whether lands along the coast were collapsed or not.
