ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to present future research direction in response to mountainous sediment-related disasters induced by earthquakes in Korea, based on the previous studies in the countries with similar seismic characteristics as Korea. Earthquakes in Korea have lower magnitude and frequency, and occur mainly in faults inside tectonic zones. These features are similar to those in China, but recent major earthquakes in Korea may be related to those in Japan. In fact, the research techniques derived from Chinese studies were overlapped with those in Japan. The findings suggest the need of experimental studies on mechanism of sediment transportation during earthquakes and on scale of the disasters according to sequential occurrence of heavy rainfalls and earthquakes. This study also recommends further studies on the establishment of disaster hazard map including seismic fault information and on the improvement of disaster hazard map incorporating the scope of disaster-related damages with respect to earthquake magnitude and rainfall intensity.
