Tephrochronology uses regional tephra for age dating and stratigraphic correlations. Regional tephras are important in Quaternary geology and archaeology because they can be used as stratigraphic time-markers. In this review, identification and dating methods of tephra are summarized. In addition, the characteristics of regional tephras in terrestrial deposits of the Korean Peninsula are elaborated, and geological applications and limitations of the regional tephra layers are also discussed. So far, AT, Ata, and Kb-Ks tephra layers from Kyushu, Japan have been found in Pleistocene paleosol, marine terrace deposits, and lacustrine deposits in Korea. Also, although not officially confirmed, Aso-4 tephra is likely to occur in terrestrial deposits. The regional tephra layers are vital for dating, especially with regard to sediments over 50 ka beyond the range of radiocarbon dating, and for dating of active faults. Furthermore, it can provide important information for preparing countermeasures against volcanic disasters. However, in order to use the tephra layer geologically, it must be confirmed whether it is a primary deposit based on sedimentological study.

The comparative study using the lab-scale experiment and the discrete element analysis is attempted to analyze the cross-anisotropic elasticity of granular soils. The lab-scale experiment consists of the small stress-controlled triaxial cyclic tests and the bender element tests. In the discrete element analysis the simulations of lab-scale cyclic tests are conducted in the various directions. Good agreement between the experimental data and the simulation on the elastic properties in the axial and shear directions confirms the usefulness of the discrete element method. The comparative analysis of the difference in the experimental data and the simulation of radial cyclic tests shows that the discrete element method can successfully be used to check the reasonable magnitude of each measurement in the experiments.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of no-tillage on sequential cropping supported from recycling of first crop ridge on the growth of pepper plant and physical properties of soil under green house condition. 1. Degree of crack on soil by tillage and no-tillage Soil cracks found in ridge and not found in row. At five months of tillage, crack number and crack length in length ridge were 3 and 37~51 cm in tillage. Maximum width and maximum depth in length ridge were 30 mm and 15.3cm in tillage. Crack number and crack length in width ridge were 7.5 and 7~28 cm in tillage. Maximum width and maximum depth in width ridge were 29 mm and 15.3 cm in tillage. At a year of no-tillage, crack number and crack length in length ridge were 1.0 and 140~200 cm in tillage. Maximum width and maximum depth in length ridge were 18 mm and 30 cm in a year of no-tillage. Crack number and crack length in width ridge were 11 and 6~22 cm in a year of no-tillage. Maximum width and maximum depth in width ridge were 22 mm and 18.5 cm in a year of no-tillage. Soil crack was not found at 2 years of no-tillage in sandy Jungdong series (jd) soil. Soil crack was found at 7 years of no-tillage in clayish Jisan series (ji) soil. 2. Penetration resistance on soil Penetration resistance was increased significantly at no-tillage in Jungdong series (jd). Depth of cultivation layer was extended at no-tillage soil compared with tillage soil. Penetration resistance of plow pan was decreased at 1 year of no-tillage compared with than tillage soil. Penetration resistance was linearly increased with increasing soil depth at tillage in Jisan series (ji). Penetration resistance on top soil was remarkably increased and then maintained continuously at no-tillage soil. 3. Drainage and moisture content of soil Moisture content of ridge in top soil was not significant difference at both tillage and no-tillage. Moisture content of ridge in 20 cm soil was 14% at no-tillage soil and 25% at tillage soil. 4. Change of capacity to retain water in soil Capacity to retain water in top soil was not significant difference at 1 bar both tillage and no-tillage. Capacity to retain water in soil was slightly higher tendency in 1 year and 2 years of no-tillage soil than tillage soil. Capacity to retain water in soil was increased at 15 bar both tillage and no-tillage. Capacity to retain water in subsoil was slightly higher tendency at 1 bar and 3 bar in 2 years of no-tillage than tillage soil and a year of no-tillage soil.

연구의 배경 앉은 자세에서 일어서기는 일상생활동작중 흔한 동작중의 하나이다. 노인들을 포함한 많은 환자들은 앉은 자세에서 일어서기에 어려움이 있고 속도가 감소한다. 이 연구의 목적은 다른 두 속도로 앉은 자세에서 일어서는 동작을 실행할 때 최대 지면반발력의 세개의 요소를 비교하는 것이다. 대상자 22명의 건강한 성인 (20-36세)을 대상으로 하였다. 실험방법 앉은 자세에서 일어서기동작 수행중 최대 지면반발력을 측정하기 위하여 힘판을 사용하였다. 대상자들은 메트로놈을 이용하여 각각 느린 속도 (3초: 총 앉은 자세에서 일어서기동작 수행시간)와 빠른 속도(1.5초)에서 앉은 자세에서 일어서기를 수행하였다. 느린 속도와 빠른 속도중 최대 지면반발력을 비교하기 위해 짝비교 t-검정을 사용하였다. 결과 빠른 속도시 최대 지면반발력의 수직(p<0.05), 전-후(p<0.05), 내-외(p<0.05) 요소에서 느린 속도시와 차이가 있었다. 최대 지면반발력의 모든 요소가 움직임의 속도의 증가에 비례하여 증가하였다. 토의 및 결론 빠른 속도의 앉은 자세에서 일어서기를 수행하기 위해서는 최대 지면반발력의 수직, 전-후요소의 추진력이 요구된다. 최대 지면반발력의 내-외요소는 상전방으로 작용하는 모멘트의 증가에 대한 제동력으로 생각된다. 또한, 빠른 속도로 앉은 자세에서 일어서기 동작을 수행하기 위하여 추진력은 일어서는 순간의 모멘트에 대한 지면반발력의 내-외요소에 영향을 미친다. 이라한 결과들은 앉은 자세에서 일어서기 동작에 어려움을 갖는 노인이나 환자들의 노력을 덜기위해 느린 속도의 움직임이 필요함을 제안한다.

In this study, decomposed granite soil samples were taken from 16 different regions and their weathering properties were investigated by testing their physical and chemical properties. According to the results, the Chemical Weathering Index (CWI) ranges from 15.5 to 30 in general and 12 out of the 16 regions show over 20 in CWI. The 12 regions are categorized into complete granite soil areas by Sueoka's classification. CWI, Li. $SiO_2,\; \DeltaS/S$ and SAR are all correlated significantly and used as indicators by which the degree of weathering can be judged. The degree of weathering can be measured especially through Li or $SiO_2$ which is considered as an easy approach of geotechnical classification. Also, the relationship between the value of N and Li is regarded as a good indicator in estimating the degree of weathering.

In this study, a new methodology by using the X-ray CT scan is proposed for estimating void ratio of very fine clayey soil. Since the particle size of the clay is too fine to calculate the volume of void inside the clays, CT scanning tests with a number of clay specimens that were artificially set to have various designated void ratios have been carried out. From the tests, a relationship between the CT values and void ratios is given to be used for estimating the invisible void ratio of very fine clay from a representative CT value scanned. The linear relationship was able to be acquired finally. It is expected that micro X-ray CT scanning can be capable of capturing the void ratio of very fine soils without any errors inherent in the conventional specific gravity tests.

We studied the release characteristics of the marine sediment which could facilitate sea eutrophication through some lab-scale simulation experiments. Environmental indicators such as pH, ORP(oxidation reduction potential), nitrogens, and phosphates were measured in order to calculate the corresponding release rates. $CaO_2$, an oxygen releasing compound was used to determine how it would effect on the natural process of sedimental release. COD, ammonia nitrogen, phosphorous compounds were less released under the oxic environment caused by $CaO_2$. This basic data will help developing methodology for reducing marine eutrophication which may be initiated by the sedimental release.
