암석의 풍화과정은 화학적인 변질, 물리적인 분해 및 생물학적인 작용으로 나뉘어 진다. 풍화에 영향을 주는 요소는 기후, 조성광물의 종류 및 구조, 절리와 단층, 열수변질작용과 광화작용, 염기성 및 산성암맥과 지형 등이다. 또한 암석의 풍화는 성인에 따라 다양한 양상으로 진행되는데 이는 암석을 이루고 있는 각각 광물들이 열역학적인 반응경로가 서로 다르고, 이에 수반되는 물리적인 풍화진행속도가 차이가 있으며, 암석의 균질성, 투수성 등이 암종별로 다양하기 때문이다. 현장에서 암석의 풍화정도는 조성광물의 변질과 분해정도를 육안 등으로 정성적으로 판단하고 분류하는 것이 일반적이다.

In this study, the characteristics of particle crash of decomposed granite soil sampled at Pocheon area were presented. The degree of weathering was artificially achieved by means of hydrofluoric acid. Weathering index was firstly determined by the analysis of mineral composition. Then, particle distribution, permeability tests were conducted. The results showed that weathering effects on particle crash over entire particle sizes. Comparative analysis on specific surface between $D_{10}$ and $D_{50}$ indicated that the smaller the particle size, the more the particle crash. In addition, the most particle crashing due to compaction appeared around the optimum moisture content. The incremental ratio of specific surface appeared to decrease as weathering proceeds, which means that the higher the weathering index the less the particle crash.

하안단구면을 이루는 퇴적층에 포함되어 있는 퇴적물들은 하안단구가 형성된 시기부터 현재까지 풍화를 받게 된다. 즉, 하안단구 퇴적층의 풍화 기간은 바로 하안단구면의 형성시기부터 현재까지가 되는 것이다 외국의 선행 연구들을 통해 볼 때, 암석의 풍화는 초기에 빠르게 진행되지만, 어느 정도 풍화가 진전되면 풍화의 속도가 점차 늦어진다고 제시되고 있으며, 암석과 토양을 구성하고 있는 풍화에 약한 몇 가지 광물들의 존재 유무와 원소 함량의 변화는 풍화 시간과 매우 긍정적인 상관 관계가 있는 것으로 나타난다. (중략)

국내 대부분의 회처리장은 연안에 위치하고 또한 해수를 석탄회 이송수로 사용하고 있다. 따라서 석탄회 -염수의 상호작용에 의하여 석탄회가 풍화가 진행되고 석탄회내의 독성 미량원소 용출특성도 육상처리장과는 다르게 나타날 것으로 예상된다. 그러나, 염수와 석탄회의 반응에 의한 독성미량원소의 용출 및 거동, 그리고 석탄회의 풍화 진행양상에 대한 연구는 국내.외적으로 전무한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 연안 석탄회 매립장에서의 염수-석탄회 반응에 의한 독성미량원소의 용출 및 거동, 그리고 석탄회의 풍화 진행양상에 대한 연구를 수행하였다.

지리적으로 이격된 마산과 서부산 지역의 불국사 화강암 분포지에서 정량적인 풍화도를 판별하기 위해 화학적 풍화지수와 등급을 산정하였다. 연구를 위해 채취된 시료에 대해 풍화 생성광물 동정, 전암분석, 산침수에 의한 이온용출 시험을 실시하였으며, 풍화지수와 지형적인 요소와 풍화속도를 고려하여 풍화등급들 산정하였다. 분석 결과 동일한 물리적, 광물학적 특성을 가지고 있으나 풍화에 따라 생성되는 점토광물의 종류와 함량에서 차이를 보여주며, 풍화의 진행 경로과 범위는 매우 상이한 결과를 보여 준다. 이러한 결과는 암석의 풍화가 모암의 조건 외에 지형, 지질구조, 기온, 강수량과 같은 환경적인 요소에 밀접하게 관련되어 있는 것을 의미할 뿐만 아니라 풍화도 산정에서 환경적인 요소에 대한 해석이 반드시 요구된다.

Rock mass in Baekrokdam at the summit of Hallasan in Jeju island is composed of two volcanic rock types: Baekrokdam trachybasalt at the eastern region and Hallasan trachyte at the western region. On-going rockfall and subsequent collapse of Baekrokdam wall rock are closely linked to the weathering of trachyte distributed in the western region of Baekrokdam. Samples of Hallasan trachyte showing different weathering grades had been collected and the polarizing microscopic observation, X-ray diffraction analysis and analysis for chemical weathering had been conducted. Formation of secondary minerals, especially clay minerals, by chemical weathering has not been identified, but the change of chemical weathering indices indicated that chemical weathering process had been proceeded to the degree for increasing and decreasing the contents of some chemical components. Changes in physical and mechanical rock properties due to weathering has also been examined. Artificial weathering test of freezing-thawing reveals that the process of crack initiation and propagation deteriorated the mechanical characteristics of Hallasan trachyte and $D_B$ = 1.5 or porosity = $20{\sim}21%$ would be the ultimate limiting value induced by the mechanical weathering processes.

Rocks exposed to the surface are subject to long-term weathering, and such effects weaken their engineering stability. Especially as weathering progresses, the surface of rocks will be changed by weathering, and such surface changes will affect the engineering safety of the rock mass. In addition, the chemical species produced in the weathered rock have a direct effect on the surrounding environment or on the structure. In areas where rocks are exposed, such as mining areas, chemical species produced by weathering can have a serious impact on the surrounding natural environment. In this study, accelerated weathering experiments using freeze/thaw system were conducted on rocks that had already been weathered and fresh rocks, and surface changes of each rock were observed with confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM), and chemical species were analyzed using IC/ICP-MS. As the weathering progressed, the surface roughness decreased, and the amount of chemical species produced increased. The results of this study can be used as basic data for evaluating engineering/environmental safety in areas where rocks are exposed.

Grus weathering mantles are widely distributed in Southern Korean Peninsula and are considered to be results of chemical weathering related to palaeoclimate milieu. This paper attempts to address this issue by CIA(chemical index of alteration). The climatic approach to the formation of grus mantles offers limited explanation of field occurrences, as these materials are widespread across climatic zones, from the humid tropics to cool temperate areas, although rates of grusification are likely to be influenced by climatic parameters. CIA values for granitoid weathering mantles in S. Korea are 50, which is the same of unweathered granitic rocks. Grus mantles in Korean peninsula show very low level in chemical alteration by CIA.

Rock rebound values and chemical compositions of Gamak island at Sangha, Gochang, Jeollabuk do are analysed as a part of geomorphic survey of that area. Some corestones are formed by deep weathering found from the summit of rock mass of Gamak island, while the rocks a part of weathering front are exposed at the foot of the island. Rebound values of rock increase toward coastal plain, so summit would be weak in resistance to erosion. It can be assumed that chemical weathering is more active at the summit by the chemical index of alteration and changes in chemical composition ratio. However it should be mentioned that the samples are taken from the surface of the rock mass that more fresh part will be exposed when the weathered parts are removed. The chemical composition and CIA values of the polygonal cracks found from on the surface of weathering rind showed that this part has values between those of the summit and the footslope. The bottom of weathering rind with polygonal cracks has higher CIA value than those of the surface. Though it supports the result from the Bisul Mt., there also difference in the ratio of SiO2. It looks caused by the difference in weathering environment and chemical difference in parent rock. In summary Gamak island is the remnants of weathering front after removal of weathered material. The removal processes are more active at the footslope where the coastal processes are stronger than the summit.
