옥천변성대 서남부지역은 변성이질암의 광물조합을 기준으로 남동부부터 북서방향으로 흑운모대, 석류석대, 십자석대의 3개의 변성광물분대로 나누어진다. Oh et al. (1995a)의 연구에서 보고된 남정석들은 산출되지 않는 것이 확인되었고 변성도는 흑운모대에서 석류석대를 거쳐 십자석대로 갈수록 증가한다. 쥬라기 화강암 접촉부의 국부적인 변성암류에서는 화강암에 의한 접촉변성작용에 의해 형성된 홍주석과 규선석이 산출된다. 흑운모대의 변성 압력-온도는 4.2 - 5.1 kb, 400 - 500 $^{\circ}C$이다. 십자석대의 정누대구조를 가지는 석류석과 석류석안의 사장석, 흑운모, 금흥석, 일메나이트포유광물의 공생관계로 추정한 압력-온도 (석류석 주변부: 7.0 - 8.0 kb, 550 - 620 $^{\circ}C$； 석류석 중심부: 4.0 - 5.0 kb, 420 - 520 $^{\circ}C$) 및 십자석대 내에서 후퇴변성작용 및 접촉변성작용 받은 석류석 주변부에 기록된 압력-온도 조건(약 2.0 - 3.0kb, 450 - 55$0^{\circ}C$)과 함께 옥천변성대 서남부지역의 변성암류가 시계방향의 압력-온도 경로를 겪었음을 지시한다. 연구지역 내에서 정밀 기재된 단면들에 대한 퇴적환경을 종합하면 대체 적으로 남동부에서는 천해성 환경이 인지되나 북서쪽으로 갈수록 대륙사면을 거쳐 분지 중심의 환경으로 전이되는 경향을 보인다. 이러한 퇴적상의 공간적 분포는 분지의 남동쪽보다 북서쪽의 침강이 우세하였던 것으로 해석될 수 있으며, 이는 곧 분지가 형성될 때 반지구대 (half graben) 형태로 분지가 열개 (rifting) 되었음을 의미한다. 각 변성분대에서 채취한 변성이질암으로부터 측정된 K-Ar 과 40Ar/39Ar 흑운모와 백운모 연대들은 149 - 167 Ma에 집중된다. 그리고 각 변성분대에서 동일시료에 대한 K-Ar 과 40Ar/39Ar 연대들은 동일시기를 지시함으로 연대적인 신뢰성을 확인 할 수 있었다. 옥천변성대 서남부지역의 변성암류를 관입하는 2개의 괴상의 화강암과 1개의 엽리화강암에서 얻어진 백운모와 흑운모들의 K-Ar 연대는 모두 156 Ma이며 옥천변성대 서남부지역의 변성이 질암의 연대와 유사하다. 이는 연구지역의 변성암류와 화강암류는 40Ar/39Ar 과 K-Ar 계의 흑운모와 백운모의 폐쇄온도 (약 300 - 350 $^{\circ}C$) 까지 동시에 냉각된 사실을 지시한다. 각섬석 편암내의 각섬석들은 복잡한 40Ar/39Ar 연대를 보여주며 일부가 평형연대를 보여주지만 특별한 의미 부여가 힘들다.

The Yangsan fault in the southeastern Korea has been receiving increasing attention in its seismic activity. In this fault region, by using the extended coda-normalization method for 707 seismograms of local earthquakes, were obtained 0.009f$^{-1.05}$ and 0.004f$^{-0.70}$ for fitting values of Q$_p^{-1}$ and Q$_s^{-1}$, respectively. These results indicate that Q$_p^{-1}$ and Q$_s^{-1}$ in the southeastern Korea is the lowest level in the world although the exponent values agree well with those in the other areas. The low Q-1 is not related to the movement of the Yangsan fault but to the tectonically inactive status like a shield area.

Volcanic rocks in Jeju Island have vesicular structure caused by various environmental factors, and indicate the differences in geological and mechanical characteristics from region to region. In addition, the bedrock of Jeju Island shows stratified structure, that is, soft layers composed of pyroclastic rocks or cavities are irregularly developed between the basalt layers by several times of volcanic activity. In this study, various physical tests and unconfined compressive strength test were conducted for intact rocks sampled in northwestern onshore and offshore of Jeju Island. The results obtained in the tests were compared with the physical and mechanical characteristics of intact rocks sampled in southeastern offshore of Jeju Island. As a results, it was confirmed that the physical and mechanical characteristics of basalts sampled in northwestern Jeju Island were similar to those of basalts sampled in southeastern offshore of Jeju Island. In addition, it was possible to estimate approximate design parameters from the correlation of mechanical properties with physical properties of basalts in Jeju Island.

The relationship between tectonic uplift and geophysical analysis of gravity anomalies and the in-situ stress fields in the Otway Ranges, SE Australia is addressed in this study to understand the nature and possible mechanism for the neotectonic movements. The uplift axis of the ranges is coincident with the regional Bouguer gravity highs whereas thick Tertiary sedimentary successions are highly correlated with the gravity lows along the basin rift geometry. This result suggests that the gravity highs are separated by the thick Tertiary sedimentary successions. Regional structural trends associated with faults and foldings of the deformed surfaces are consistent with the prevailing NW-SE $S_{Hmax}$ trend in this part of the continent. The anomalously positive correlation between topography and Bouguer gravity fields suggests possibly a lithospheric flexural deformation mode at a long wavelength (order of $10^2$ kms) in the region. It also suggests that the reactivation of pre-existing lithospheric structures driven by plate boundary forces plays a key role in this mode.

This study investigates a neotectonic context of the past 5 Ma for the Otway Ranges along the southern Victoria coast, SE Australia by evaluating the distribution and development of marine terraces along the mountainous coastal area. Uplift rate derived from low terrace deposits using OSL dating method is determined to evaluate the extent to which mild intraplate tectonism has the capability to influence the geomorphic evolution of continental interiors. This study also investigates the stratigraphic relationship between Quaternary marine terraces and Pliocene strandlines, which suggests a change of tectonic activity in the Late Neogene. The intensified tectonic response is well addressed in terms of an increase of the Australian intraplate stress level due to the change of relative motion and increased forces in the boundary between the Australian and Pacific plate.
