서만철,박찬홍 한국해양학회 1991 韓國海洋學會誌 Vol.26 No.1

적도 북동 태평양 클래리언-클리퍼톤 변환단층대 사이의 망간탐사 구역에 대하여 중력, 자력 및 탄성파탐사를 포함한 종합적인 지구물리탐사가 수행되었다. 해저면에 발달된 해저산이나 동서방향의 해저구릉들은 최고 20 mgal의 양의 Free-air 중력 이 상을 보여준다. 해산부근에서의 음의 Bouguer 및 Residual 중력이상치는 해산하부에 주위의 해양지각보다 낮은 밀도의 암석이 존재함을 시사한다. 자력이상대가 발견되지 않는 사실과 동서방향의 극성변화없는 미약한 자력이상치는 본 조사지역이 백악기말의 Magnetic Quiet Zone에 속함을 의미하며 또 남쪽 조사구역의 동서방향으로 100 km 이 상 떨어진 해산들에서 공통적으로 발견되는 양의 자기이상치는 이들 해산들이 발견되 지 않은 단층대를 따라 좌향이동 되었을 가능성을 보여준다. 조사구역내의 퇴적암층은 태평양 분지내 다른 지역과 동일한 탄성과 반사특성을 보이며 세 층으로 나누어 진다. 퇴적암층은 약 200-400 m의 두께를 보이며, 해산 등의 험한 해저지형을 갖는 남쪽이 평탄한 북쪽보다 두꺼운 퇴적층을 보인다. 망간단괴들은 남쪽지역의 해산이 발달되고 Unit I의 두께가 100 m 이상되는 지역에 가장 많이 분포한다. A multi-disciplinary geophysical study including gravity, magnetic, and seismic reflection profiling was carried out in the area between the Clarion fracture zone and the Clippertone fracture zone o the northeastern equatorial Pacific basin. There are small free-air gravity anomalies of less than 20 mgal over seamounts and the east-west trending abyssal hills. The negative residual gravity anomalies over seamounts may indicate the existence of low density seamount roots compared to surrounding oceanic crust. Non-existence of magnetic lineations and the magnetic anomalies of small smplitude with no polarity change in the east-west direction support that the study area belongs to the Cretaceous magnetic quite zone. Positive magnetic anomalies over seamounts offset 100 km in the east-west direction in the southern part of the study area suggest a possibility of left-lateral movement of those seamounts along unknown fractures. The sedimentary section in the study area can be divided into three units (Unit I, unit IIA, and Unit IIB) n the basis of reflection characteristics. the total thickness of sedimentary section varies from 200 to 400 meters and the sedimentary section is thicker in the southern area of rough topography near the seamount belt than in the northern flat area. Manganese nodules are abundant in the southern part of the study area where the ridges are developed and the Unit I layer is thicker than 100 meters.

충남지역 초염기성암체의 암석학적 연구

서만철,우영균 한국지구과학회 2000 韓國地球科學會誌 Vol.21 No.3

Ultramafic rocks in Choongnam area are mainly serpenitinites which are parent rock of talc and asbestos ore deposits. About 10° NNE-Vending parallel serpentinites masses occur as discontineous isolated lenticular intrusive hodies in Precambrian gneiss complex between Hongseong-Kwangcheon line and Onyang-Cheongyang line. The sizes of serpentinites vary from several centimeters to 1 kilometer in width and from several meters to 5 kilometers in length. The serpentinites show high SiO₂(39.99wt.% in average), MgO(38.46wt % in average), Cr($gt;101 lppm), Ni($gt;1660ppm), and Co($gt;80ppm). Most serpentinites contain serpentine more than 50%. Some serpentines contain original minerals such as olivine, pyroxene and chromite. Also, serpentinites body may contain a little serpentinized peridotite, and some talc and asbestos ore deposits. The original rocks of the serpentinites interpreted as Alpine type ultramafic rocks, and dunite and/or harzburgite which were originated from slightly depleted upper mantle(30∼40㎞ deep), and emplaced in the crust through the large fault zones. It seems that main serpentinizatiori from the original rocks was occurred during greenschist and/or amphibolite fades regional metamorphism in Choongnam area.

충남지역 초염기성 암체의 지구물리학적 연구 : 탄성파 속도 특성 Characteristics of Seismic Velocity

서만철,우영균,송석환,Tianyao, Hao 한국지구과학회 2000 韓國地球科學會誌 Vol.21 No.3

Compressional and shear wave velocities (Vp and Vs) and densities have been measured for serpentinite, amphibolite, amphibole and biotite schist, and gneiss from western part of Chungnam Province at room temperature. Ranges of the density are 2.6∼2.86g/㎤ for serpentinite, 2.25∼2.81g/㎤ for talc, and 2.74∼3.07g/㎤ for metamorphic rocks. Of these rocks, talc shows wider ranges than serpentinite and amphibolites due to its metamorphic process from serpentinite. Values of Vp and Vs are 5719∼6062m/s and 2898∼3351m/s for seipentinites, 4019∼5478m/s and 2241∼2976m/s for talc, 5375∼6372m/s and 3042∼3625m/s for amphibolite, 5290∼5499 m/s and 2968∼3137m/s for schist, and 4788m/s and 2804m/s for gneiss, respectively. Velocity of P wave increases 1.47 times faster than S wave with increase of density. The results of seismic velocity measurement show anisotropy, higher velocity across than along the schistocity of rocks, especially in metamorphic rocks. This fact indicates that there were regional metamorphism related with tectonic forces. Values of seismic velocity increase with increasing pressure from 20 ㎫ to 70 ㎫, especially in metamorphic rocks. Overall recalculated Vp and Vs values suggest that the serpentinite indicates for upper mantle in the respects of seismic characteristics, in spite of high degree of serpentinization. In addition, those of the amphibolite do for low crust, and gneiss and schist for upper crust.

충격구조의 탄성파자료 해석연구 : 운석기원의 고분화구와 유전의 형성 Fossil Meteorite Crater and Formation of a Small Oil Field

서만철 한국지구과학회 1990 韓國地球科學會誌 Vol.11 No.2

A seismic study combined with well data of a circular oil field in Cass County, Michigan, indicates that the structure's origin may be related to an impact event. The structural closures in the time structure maps and drilling results both show a central uplift. The fault system in the Trempealeau Formation shows a structure similar to other proven astroblemes. Undisturbed layers just beneath the central uplift also provide an evidence of an impact structure. The impact event occurred on the Utica shale of the Late Ordovician age. The subsequent uplifting and erosion formed the missing of some Late Ordovician rocks in the center of the oil field. A delayed isostatic adjustment may resulted in the structural closures of the Silurian and Devonian sedimentary formations which played the role of structural trap as a hydrocarbon reservoir. The diameter of the original crater was at least 2 kilometers. The meteorite seems likely to be as heavy as about 9×10⁴ tons and as large as 36-50 meters in its diameter depending on itscomposition.

경북 포항시 일월동 택지개발지구의 지반상태 파악을 위한 탄성파탐사

서만철,Seo, Man Cheol 한국지구물리물리탐사학회 1999 지구물리 Vol.2 No.1

경북 포항시 일월동 지역에서 482 m 길이의 동서 방향의 측선에 대한 탄성파 굴절법 및 반사법탐사를 실시하였다. 자료수집에서 지오폰 간격과 오프셋은 각각 2 m로 설정하였으며, 발파는 끝점 발파 배열 방법을 이용하여 한 발파점마다 24채널을 기록하였다. 발파 간격은 2 m로 하여 측선의 전구간에서 탄성파 자료를 취득하였다. 굴절법탐사 자료의 해석은 수평다층구조 이론을 적용하여 실시하였으며, 반사파 자료 처리는 트레이스 편집, 이득조절, 공심점 분류, 수직경로시차 보정, 뮤트 과정을 거친 후 동일 오프셋 모음을 취하여 단일중첩 탄성파 단면을 작성하고 필터링을 거친 후 해석에 이용하였다. 굴절법탐사 자료 해석결과 조사 측선 구간의 천부지반은 크게 2층으로 구분되는데, 상부층은 267∼566 m/s 의 P파 속도 분포를 보여 대체로 미고결 퇴적층이며, 하부층은 1096∼3108 m/s 의 P파 속도 분포를 보여 풍화암∼경암의 암반으로 구성되었음을 알 수 있다. 상부 미고결층은 수평적으로 큰 변화를 보이고 있는 바, 측선의 동측 구간에는 평균 400 m/s 의 P파 속도를 보이는 미고결 사암층이 3∼5 m 두께로 발달되어 있으며, 측선의 서측 구간은 평균 340 m/s 의 P파 속도를 갖는 매립토층이 8∼10 m 두께로 발달된 것으로 해석된다. 반사파 단면도에서 조사구간에 3개의 고각의 단층대가 분포하며, 이들 단층대를 경계로 기반암이 나누어져 있으며 단층대 사이의 구간은 비교적 안정된 지반으로 해석된다. 대형 건물의 위치는 단층대를 피하여 안정된 지반 구간에 위치해야 함을 고려할 때, 그 기초를 3∼10 m 깊이 하부에 위치하는 기반암 내에 설치되도록 설계되어야 할 것이다. Seismic refracrion and reflection surveys were conducted along an E-W trending track of 482 m long in Ilwall-dong, Pohang. End-on spread was employed as source-receiver configuration with 2 m for both geophone interval and offset. Seismic data were acquired using 24 channels at every shot fired every 2 m along the track. Refraction data were interpreted using equations for multi-horizontal layers. Reflection data were processed in the sequence of trace edit, gain control, CMP sorting, NMO correction, mute, common offset gathering, and filtering to produce a single fold seismic section. There are two layers in shallow subsurface of the study area. Upper layer has the P-wave velocities ranging from 267 to 566 m/s and is interpreted as a layer of unconsolidated sediments. Lower layer has P-wave velocities of 1096-3108 m/s and is interpreted as weathered rock to hard rock. Most of the lower layer classified as soft rock. Upper layer has lateral variations in both P-wave velocity and thickness. The upper layer in the eastern part of the seismic line is 3-5 m thick and has P-wave velocity of 400 m/s in average. The upper layer in the western part is 8-10 m thick and has P-wave velocity of 340 m/s in average. The eastern part is interpreted as unconsolidated beach sand, while the western part is interpreted as infilled soil to develop a construction site. Three fault systems of high angle are imaged in seismic reflection section. It is interpreted that the area between these fault systems are relatively safe. Large buildings should be located in the safe ground condition of no fault and footings should be designed to be in the basement rock of 3-10 m deep below the surface.
