Abstract

The physical properties of the central and southwestern crust of South Korea were estimated by comparing values of ${Q_P}^{-1}\;and\;{Q_S}^{-1}$ in the Kimcheon and Mokpo areas. In order to get ${Q_P}^{-1}\;and\;{Q_S}^{-1}$ values, seismic data were collected from two stations of the KIGAM network (KMC and MUN) and four stations of the KMA network (CPN, KUC, MOP, and WAN). An extended coda-normalization method was applied to these data. Estimates of ${Q_P}^{-1}\;and\;{Q_S}^{-1}$ show variations depending on frequency. As frequencies vary from 3 Hz to 24 Hz, the estimates decrease from $(1.4{\pm}3.9){\times}10^{-3}\;to\;(2.3{\pm}3.5){\times}10^{-4}\;for\;{Q_P}^{-1}\;and\;(1.8{\pm}1.3){\times}10^{-3}\;to\;(1.9{\pm}1.5){\times}10^{-4}\;for\;{Q_S}^{-1}$ in central South Korea, and $(5.9{\pm}4.8){\times}10^{-3}\;to\;(2.2{\pm}3.8){\times}10^{-4}\;for\;{Q_P}^{-1}\;and\;(0.5{\pm}2.8){\times}10^{-3}\;to\;(1.8{\pm}1.6){\times}10^{-4}\;for\;{Q_S}^{-1}$ in southwestern South Korea. According that a frequency-dependent power law is applied to the data, the best fits of ${Q_P}^{-1}\;and\;{Q_S}^{-1}\;are\;0.003f^{-0.49}\;and\;0.005f^{-1.03}$ in central South Korea, and $0.026f^{-1.47}$ and $0.001f^{-0.49}$ in southwestern South Korea, respectively. These values almost correspond to those of seismically stable regions although ${Q_P}^{-1}$ values of southwestern South Korea are a little high due to lack of data used.

본 연구에서는 김천과 목포 대의 ${Q_P}^{-1}$과 ${Q_S}^{-1}$을 비교함으로써 남한 중 서부 일대 지각의 물리적 성질을 알아보았다. ${Q_P}^{-1}$과 ${Q_S}^{-1}$은 한국지질자원연구원에서 운영중인 2개 관측소인 KMC(김천), MUN(무안) 지진 자료와 기상청에서 운영하는 4개 관측소인 CPN(추풍령), KUC(거창), MOP(목포), WAN(완도) 지진 기록을 바탕으로 확장 코다 규격화법을 이용하여 구하였다. 남한 중부의 ${Q_P}^{-1}$은 $(1.4{\pm}3.9){\times}10^{-3}$에서 $(2.3{\pm}3.5){\times}10^{-4},\;{Q_S}^{-1}$은 $(1.8{\pm}1.3){\times}10^{-3}$에서 $(1.9{\pm}1.5){\times}10^{-4}$이고, 남한 남서부의 ${Q_P}^{-1}$ 값은 $(5.9{\pm}4.8){\times}10^{-3}$에서 $(2.2{\pm}3.8){\times}10^{-4},\;{Q_S}^{-1}$ 값은 $(0.5{\pm}2.8){\times}10^{-3}$에서 $(1.8{\pm}1.6){\times}10^{-4}$으로 모두 주파수가 3.0 Hz에서 24 Hz로 늘어남에 따라 그 값이 감소하는 주파수 의존적 특성을 보인다. 이들 값을 주파수의 지수 형태로 나타내면 중부는 ${Q_P}^{-1}$이 $0.003f^{-0.49},\;{Q_S}^{-1}$이 $0.005f^{-1.03}$, 남서부는 ${Q_P}^{-1}$이 $0.026f^{-1.47},\;{Q_S}^{-1}$이 $0.001f^{-0.49}$로 이 값들은 지진학적으로 안정한 지역의 값과 거의 유사하다. 그러나 남서부의 ${Q_P}^{-1}$ 값이 다소 높은데, 이는 자료수의 부족 때문이라고 추정된다.
