동해 울릉분지 퇴적물의 원소 함량 특성과 제4기 후기 동안의 퇴적물 기원 변화를 파악하기 위해 남.서쪽 사면을 포함한 울릉분지에서 총 3개의 주상시료를 채취하여 주요원소 및 미량원소를 분석하였다. 울릉분지 퇴적물을 황해와 남해 퇴적물과 비교하면 주요원소는 함량 범위가 유사하였으나 미량원소 함량의 경우 해역별로 큰 차이를 보였고, 조사지역인 울릉분지 내에서도 큰 차이를 보였다. 울릉분지 서쪽사면(WS) 퇴적물에서는 Mo의 함량이, 분지평원(Basin) 퇴적물에서는 Zr, Nb, Hf, 그리고 Ta의 함량이 다른 지역에 비해 상대적으로 높게 나타났으며, 남쪽사면(SS) 퇴적물에서는 Ca와 Cs의 함량이 높은 특징을 보였다. 분석된 원소들 중 생물기원이나 자생 및 속성기원의 영향을 받지 않은 것으로 판단되는 원소(K, Ti, Cs, Zr, Nb, Hf 및 Ta)들은 원소/Al 비율 크기와 수직적 변화를 기준으로 3가지 형태로 구분되었다. 첫 번째는 모든 주상시료에서 유사한 비율을 보이며 수직적인 변화가 크지 않은 원소(K, Ti), 두 번째는 서쪽사면(WS)과 남쪽사면(SS) 퇴적물에서 차이를 보이는 원소(Cs), 그리고 분지평원(Basin) 퇴적물에서 사면 퇴적물보다 상대적으로 높은 비를 보이는 원소(Zr, Nb, Hf, La)이다. 이들 분포형태별 원소들의 특성에 근거할 때 울릉분지의 분지평원(Basin) 퇴적물은 퇴적시기에 따라 기원이 변화된 것으로 해석될 수 있다. 분지평원(Basin) 퇴적물은 해수면이 상대적으로 낮은 약 $10,000{\sim}7,000\;yr$ BP 동안 서쪽사면(WS) 퇴적물과 화산재가 혼합된 특징을 보였으며, 7,000 yr BP 이후는 남쪽사면(SS) 퇴적물과 화산재가 혼합된 특징을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 기존에 연구된 대마난류의 동해 유입시기와 매우 유사한 결과로, 해수면 상승에 의한 울릉분지의 퇴적환경변화에 의한 것으로 해석된다. Major and trace elements were analyzed in three core sediments to investigate geochemical characteristics of East Sea sediments and provenance changes during late Quaternary in Ulleung Basin. Comparing with Yellow and South Sea sediments, contents of major elements were generally similar while contents of trace elements were significantly different. Furthermore, within this basin, there were some variabilities in trace element compositions. In the western slope sediments (WS), Mo was enriched over 6 times as much as other sites. On the other hand, Zr, Nb, Hf and Ta were enriched in basin sediments (Basin), and Ca and Cs were enriched in southern slope sediments (SS). After excluding elements derived from biogenic, authigenic and diagenetic origins, the lithogenic elements (K, Ti, Cs, Zr, Nb, Hf and Ta) could be classified into three groups from the comparison of element/Al ratios among cores. The first group consisted of elements (K and Ti) that showed the nearly similar element/Al ratios among three cores. The second group contained Cs which showed significant difference between two slope sediments. The third group elements (Zr, Nb, Hf and Ta) showed highly enriched in basin relative to both slope areas. The depth profiles of metal/Al ratios in basin sediments provided the following interpretation for the compositions of sediment and their variation. From 10,000 yr B.P. to 7,000 yr B.P. two lithogenic components (volcanic ashes and western slope sediments) were mixed and deposited in the basin. After 7,000 yr B.P., however, southern slope sediments were mixed with volcanic ashes and deposited in basin area. This event of source change is nearly close to inflow period of the Tsushima Warm Current to Ulleung Basin. Thus, it might be suggested that element geochemistry in Ulleung basin sediment indicate the change of current system in the study area.

This study examines the existing theories related to detention basin and embodies the calculation process of sediment basin. It investigated the scale of sediment basin by actual measurement at Buju Mountain, Mokpo city which causes the environmental problems like erosion and outflow of sediment due to the excessive development, finds the problems of existing sediment basin by applying and analyzing the physical factors which affect the execution of sediment basin using GIS as the method establishing the scale of sediment basin embodied in this study and then suggests the oteimum scale. Comparing the surface area of the existing sediment basin and of the required one, all of the surface areas of the existing sediment basins were smaller than those of the required one. Therefore, it can be expected that the trap efficient of sediment will be declined. The required one. Therefore, it can be expected that the trap efficient of sediment will be declined. The required minimum depth was fully satisfied, but it is analyzed that the volume of sediment basin will affect the neighboring environment because it can not accomodate the inflow discharge volume except sediment basin C. It is consistent with the actual situation which causes a serious environmental problem due to the overflow of sediment basin during the heavy storm event except sediment basin C and also it verifies the validity of calculation process of establishing optimum sediment basin suggested in this study.

Soil Erosion Modeling in the 3S Basin of the Mekong River Basin

Thuy, Hoang Thu,Lee, Giha,Yu, Wansik,Shin, Yongchul Korean Geo-Environmental Society 2017 한국지반환경공학회논문집 Vol.18 No.7

The 3S Basin is described as an important contributor in terms of many aspects in the Mekong River Basin in Southeast Asia. However, the 3S Basin has been suffering adverse consequences of changing discharge and sediment, which are derived from farming, deforestation, hydropower dam construction, climate change, and soil erosion. Consequently, a large population and ecology system that live along the 3S Basin are seriously affected. Accordingly, the calculating and simulating discharge and sediment become ever more urgent. There are many methods to simulate discharge and sediment. However, most of them are designed only during a single rainfall event and they require many kinds of data. Therefore, this study applied a Catchment-scale Soil Erosion model (C-SEM) to simulate discharge and sediment in the 3S Basin. The simulated results were judged with others references's data and the observed discharge of Strung Treng station, which is located in the mainstream and near the outlet of the 3S Basin. The results revealed that the 3S Basin distributes 31% of the Mekong River Basin's total discharge. In addition, the simulated sediment results at the 3S Basin's outlet also substantiated the importance of the 3S Basin to the Mekong River Basin. Furthermore, the results are also useful for the sustainable management practices in the 3S Basin, where the sediment data is unavailable.

Kinematic Interpretation for the Development of the Yeonghae Basin, Located at the Northeastern Part of the Yangsan Fault, Korea

ZOOELNON ABDELWAHED ALTAHER ALI AHMAD,박기웅,김영석 대한지질공학회 2022 지질공학 Vol.32 No.4

The Yeonghae basin is located at the northeastern part of the Yangsan fault (YSF; a potentially active fault). The study of the architecture of the Yeonghae basin is important to understand the activity of the Yangsan fault system (YSFS) as well as the basin formation mechanism and the activity of the YSFS. For this study, Digital Elevation Model (DEM) was used to highlight the marginal faults, and structural fieldwork was performed to understand the geometry of the intra-basinal structures and the nature of the bounding faults. DEM analysis reveals that the eastern margin is bounded by the northern extension of the YSF whereas the western margin is bounded by two curvilinear sub-parallel faults; Baekseokri fault (BSF) and Gakri fault (GF). The field data indicate that the YSF is striking in the N-S direction, steeply dipping to the east, and experienced both sinistral and dextral strike-slip movements. Both the BSF and GF are characterized dominantly by an oblique right-lateral strike-slip movement. The stress indicators show that the maximum horizontal compressional stress was in NNE to NE and NNW-SSE, which is consistent with right-lateral and left-lateral movements of the YSFS, respectively. The plotted structural data show that the NE-SW is the predominant direction of the structural elements. This indicates that the basin and marginal faults are mainly controlled by the right-lateral strike-slip movements of the YSFS. Based on the structural architecture of the Yeonghae basin, the study area represents a contractional zone rather than an extensional zone in the present time. We proposed two models to explain the opening and developing mechanism of the Yeonghae basin. The first model is that the basin developed as an extensional pull-apart basin during the left-lateral movement of the YSF, which has been reactivated by tectonic inversion. In the second model, the basin was developed as an extensional zone at a dilational quadrant of an old tip zone of the northern segment of the YSF during the right-lateral movement stage. Later on, the basin has undergone a shortening stage due to the closing of the East Sea. The second model is supported by the major trend of the collected structural data, indicating predominant right-lateral movement. This study enables us to classify the Yeonghae basin as an inverted strike-slip basin. Moreover, two opposite strike-slip movement senses along the eastern marginal fault indicate multiple deformation stages along the Yangsan fault system developed along the eastern margin of the Korean peninsula.

Nature and evolution of the Cretaceous basins in the eastern margin of Eurasia: A case study of the Gyeongsang Basin, SE Korea

Lee, Tae-Ho,Park, Kye-Hun,Yi, Keewook Elsevier 2018 Journal of Asian earth sciences Vol.166 No.-

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>The Gyeongsang Basin is the largest among the non-marine Cretaceous sedimentary basins in Korea and Japan, formed by sinistral strike-slip movement induced by the oblique subduction of the paleo-Pacific plate under the eastern Asian continental margin, and has an evolutionary history of about sixty million years. SHRIMP and LA-MC-ICPMS U-Pb analyses were performed on the detrital zircons separated from the constituent formations of the Gyeongsang Basin. We determined the maximum depositional ages of the four formations based on their ages of the youngest groups as follows; 118.0 ± 2.6 Ma (n = 4) for the Hasandong Formation, 108.7 ± 0.8 Ma (n = 11) for the Chilgok Formation, 106.0 ± 0.2 Ma (n = 63) for the Silla Conglomerate, 105.4 ± 0.4 Ma (n = 14) for the Haman Formation, and 99.9 ± 0.7 Ma (n = 5) for the Jindong Formation, belonging to the period from Aptian to Cenomanian. The pre-Cretaceous detrital zircons of the lower to middle Gyeongsang Supergroup indicate their derivation from the Yeongnam Massif and the Okcheon Metamorphic Belt surrounding the Gyeongsang Basin. At around 115 Ma, as reflected as enhanced proportion of such ages in the detrital zircons and occurrence of farther inland igneous activities, the tectonic environment of Gyeongsang Basin changed to intra-arc due to the more active reestablishment of subduction-related igneous activity. However, the upper Gyeongsang Supergroup has a new age component of the mid-Permian, along with changes in the direction of paleocurrent flowing from the northeast and east, indicating sediment supply from SW Japan with rocks of that age. The changes in the direction of the paleocurrent flow seem to indicate that the center of igneous activity has moved in the direction of the subduction zone to the east. As the intensity of igneous activity continued to increase, the Gyeongsang Basin was closed by the filling of the basin by volcanic activity. The Cretaceous basins of the Korean Peninsula and southwest Japan show similar evolutionary histories, suggesting a type model of the creation and the evolution of basin around the continental margin subduction zone; creation of sedimentary basin by pull-apart or rifting in the backarc region, evolution to intra-arc basin by the landward progress of subduction-related igneous activity, and finally the closure of the basin due to the advent of highly enhanced igneous activity.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> U-Pb detrital zircon ages constrain the sedimentation age of the Gyeongsang Supergroup from Barremian to Cenomanian. </LI> <LI> The sediments of the Gyeongsang Basin were initially supplied from the western inland, but later from Japan in the east. </LI> <LI> Some of the Cretaceous deposits of SW Japan and the Korean Peninsula were deposited in the connected basin. </LI> <LI> The Cretaceous basins were developed near the subduction zone of the continental margin. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>

고해상도 다중빔음향측심 지형자료 분석을 통한 서필리핀분지의 진화 연구

최한진,신현욱 한국지구과학회 2023 한국지구과학회지 Vol.44 No.6

The West Philippine Basin, an oceanic basin half the size of the Philippine Sea Plate, lies in the western partof the plate and south of the Korean Peninsula on the Eurasian Plate. It subducts beneath the Eurasian Plate and thePhilippine Islands bordering the Ryukyu Trench and the Philippine Trench with 25-50% of this basin already consumed. However, the history of the opening of the basin's southern region has been a topic of debate. The non-transformdiscontinuity formed during the seafloor spreading is similar to the transform fault boundaries normally perpendicular tomid-ocean ridge axes; however, it was created irregularly due to ridge propagations caused by variations of mantleconvection attributable to magma supply changes. By analyzing high-resolution multi-beam echo-sounding data, weconfirmed that the non-transform discontinuity due to the propagating rift evolved in the entire basin and that the abyssalhill strike direction changed from E-W to NNW-SSE from the fossil spreading center. In the early stage of basinextension, the Amami-Sankaku Basin was rotated 90 degrees clockwise from its current orientation, and it bordered thePalau Basin along the Mindanao Fracture Zone. The Amami-Sankaku Basin separated from the Palau Basin while thespreading of the West Philippine Basin began with a counter-clockwise rotation. This indicates that the non-transformdiscontinuities formed by a sudden change in magma supply due to the drift of the Philippine Sea Plate andsimultaneously with the rapid changes in the spreading direction from ENE-WSW to N-S. The Palau Basin wasconsidered to be the sub-south of the West Philippine Basin, but recent studies have shown that it extends into anindependent system. Evidence from sediment layers and crustal thickness hints at the possibility of its existence before theWest Philippine Basin opened, although its evolution continues to be debated. We performed a combined analysis usinghigh-resolution multi-beam bathymetry and satellite gravity data to uncover new insights into the evolution of the WestPhilippine Basin. This information illuminates the complex plate interactions and provides a crucial contribution towardunderstanding the opening history of the basin and the Philippine Sea Plate.

Origin of volcaniclastics in the central part of a pull-apart basin, the Cretaceous Eumsung Basin, Korea

양우헌 한국지질과학협의회 2013 Geosciences Journal Vol.17 No.2

There are coarse-grained deposits, especially composed entirely of volcaniclastics in the central part of the Cretaceous Eumsung Basin (Eumseong Basin), far away from the basinal margins. Primary volcanic masses are not exposed on the surface in the adjacent areas. For unraveling the origin of the volcaniclastics, subsurface magnetotelluric as well as surface sedimentological data were examined. Two resistivity profiles of crossed lines ES2 and ES9 represent subsurface basinal and basin-fill structures of the Eumsung Basin. In the basin fills, four high-resistivity bodies of A, B, C, and D were found. Considering the basin-scale structure and forming process of the pull-apart Eumsung Basin, it is reasonable to infer that these isolated high-resistivity bodies formed as a result of volcanic intrusion/extrusion into/upon the basin-fill. Therefore, the coarse-grained volcaniclastic deposits in the central part of the Eumsung Basin can be interpreted as the product of syn-sedimentary deposition of volcaniclastic material that was shed from an exposed part of subsurface volcanics in a relatively short distance.

In this study, we calculated the fixed-type Areal Reduction Factor (ARF) of the Hancheon River basin in Jeju Island, and compared the calculated ARF and the ARF of the four major river basins suggested by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. As a result, the maximum fluctuation ratios of ARF for the four major river basins calculated using area, frequency, and initial duration time were significant: 7.61% for the Hangang River basin; 12.69% for the Nakdonggang River basin; 8.09% for the Kumgang River basin; and 17.98% for the Yeongsangang River basin. In addition, the differences between the maximum and minimum value of ARF for the Hancheon River basin based on 48 hours was 2.13%, and it was smaller than the one for the four major river basins: 8.92% for the Hangang River basin; 11.41% for the Nakdonggang River basin; 8.87% for the Kumgang River basin; and 17.17% for the Yeongsangang River basin. The Yeongsangang River basin had the highest difference.

한반도 남동부 경주시 양북면 마이오세 입천소분지의 형성과 발달사

성창훈(Changhun Seong),천영범(Youngbeom Cheon),손문(Moon Son),손영관(Young Kwan Sohn),김진섭(Jin-Seop Kim) 한국암석학회 2013 암석학회지 Vol.22 No.1

입천소분지는 기반암과 단층으로 경계되며 북동 방향으로 길쭉한 형태의 비대칭 지구의 기하를 가지는 분지로 인근 와읍과 어일분지와는 기반암에 의해 격리되어 있는 독립된 소규모 마이오세 분지이다. 분지충전물의 층리는 대부분 북서 내지 서북서 방향으로 경사지며, 분지 북동부에는 데사이트질 화산물질을 다량 포함하는 전기 마이오세 퇴적물이 그리고 남서부에는 사암을 협재하는 비화산성 중기 마이오세 육성 역암이 분포한다. 또한 분지충전물 내 퇴적동시기 공액상 정단층들은 분지가 서북서-동남동 방향으로 확장하였음을 지시한다. 이러한 특징들은 인근 와읍 및 어일분지와 것들과 매우 유사한 것으로, 분지의 확장이 북서부 경계단층에 의해 주도되었으며 분지의 열개가 북서에서 남동으로 전파되었음을 지시한다. 한편, 입천소분지 내에는 어일분지에서 흔히 나타나는 현무암질 화산물질이 관찰되지 않는다. 슬랩과 경하관찰 결과, 입천소분지의 데사이트질 응회암과 응회질 이암은 와읍분지의 용동리응회암과 매우 유사한 특징을 보인다. 중기 마이오세의 비화산성 퇴적층은 와읍과 어일분지 그리고 입천소분지에 공통적으로 분지의 남서부에 분포한다. 따라서 입천소분지의 확장은 22Ma 경 와읍분지의 확장과 함께 시작되어 다량의 데사이트질 화산물질이 유입 되었으며, 이후 어일분지의 주 확장시기인 20~18Ma 사이에는 확장을 멈추었다가, 약 17Ma에 이르러 연일 구조선의 운동과 함께 분지의 열개가 남서쪽으로 전파되면서 중기 마이오세 초의 연일층군에 해당하는 비화산성 역암이 분지의 남서부에 퇴적된 것으로 결론지어진다. The Ipcheon Subbasin is an isolated Miocene basin in SE Korea, which has the geometry of an asymmetric graben elongated in the NE-SW direction. It is in contact with basement rocks by faults and separated from adjacent Waup and Eoil basins by the basement. The strata of the basin fills have an overall homoclinal structure, dipping toward NW or WNW. The basin fills consist of Early Miocene sediments rich in dacitic volcanic and volcaniclastic deposits and Middle Miocene non-volcanic and nonmarine conglomerates intercalated with sand layers, which are distributed in the northeastern and southwestern parts of the basin, respectively. Kinematic analysis of syndepositional conjugate faults in the basin fills indicates WNW-ESE extension of the basin. These features are very similar to those of the adjacent Waup and Eoil basins, indicating that the basin extension was governed by the NE-trending northwestern border faults and that the basin experienced a propagating rifting from NE to SW. Basaltic materials, which occur abundantly in the Eoil Basin, are totally absent in the Ipcheon Subbasin. The observations of the dacitic tuff and tuffaceous mudstone in the subbasin, on slabs and under microscope, suggest that they have lithologies very similar to those of the Yondongri Tuff in the Waup Basin. The Middle Miocene non-volcanic sediments of the Waup and Eoil basins and the Ipcheon Subbasin are distributed consistently in the southwestern part of each basin. It is thus concluded that the extension of the Ipcheon Subbasin began at about 22 Ma together with the Waup Basin and was lulled during the main extension period of the Eoil Basin between 20-18 Ma. At about 17 Ma, the subbasin was re-extended due to the activation of the Yeonil Tectonic Line associated with the propagating rifting toward SW. This event is interpreted to have provided new sedimentation space for the Middle Miocene sediments in the southwestern parts of the Waup and Eoil basins and the Ipcheon Subbasin as well.
