Volcanic glass shard, which shows relatively homogeneous chemical composition in volcanic eruption materials, is used to determine ages of tephra layers and then to correlate tephra layers each other for understanding of evolution of Quaternary geomorphology. For reducing processing errors in age determination and correlation of units, amorphous glass shard should be separated carefully from soil sample through laboratory procedures such as washing, separation, and identification. Introduction of these processes in detail could be reduced errors in tephrochronology by using volcanic glass shard.

Basaltic ash of Udo tuff cone, Jeju Island, was almost fresh across strata, but significantly altered toward surface by supergene process. The supergene alteration of the Udo tuff was examined by using X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and electron microprobe analysis for elucidating the alteration process of basaltic ash in terrestrial environments. Fresh ash particles were composed of glass matrix, plagioclase, olivine, and pyroxene. The glass matrix was selectively replaced inward by colloform alteration rinds of Fe-Ti-rich amorphous silicate nanogranules and smectite, often leaving glass core at the center of larger ash particles. Some of the dissolved species released from the altered ash particle precipitated as fine honycomb aggregates of smectite on the pore walls, contributing to the cementation and lithification of volcanic ash.

Hydrated halloysite was formed by the low temperature alteration of trachytic tuff in onion-like spherical or curly platy forms. The Si content was higher than that of ideal kaolin minerals, indicating the possible presence of amorphous materials. The high Fe content is responsible for the platy morphology of halloysite. The leached ions precipitated as halloysite filling the interparticle pores, while trachytic glass was replaced by Si-rich amorphous materials in an hemispherical form, which was further evolved into spherical halloysite. Halloysite is one of the major alteration products of the volcanic ash in Ulleung Island underwent intense trachytic volcanism.

The Jipum Volcanics, occurred in western Yeongdeok, are a stratigraphic unit that is composed of rhyolitic pyroclastic rocks, tuffites, andesitic hyaloclastites, rhyolite lavas, tuffaceous conglomerates and andesite lavas. The SHRIMP U-Pb zircon dating yielded eruption ages of $68.5{\pm}1.6Ma$ from the rhyolitic pyroclastic rocks. Around the time, the unit was generated by dominant rhyolitic volcanisms and locally added by concomitant andesitc volcanisms from another vents. The rhyolitic volcanisms first produced the pyroclastic rocks by phreatomagmatic explosions from rhyolitic magma, later made of the rhyolite lava dome by lava effusions from reopening of the rhyolitc magma at the existing vent. At the time between first and second rhyolitic volcanisms, the tuffites were deposited at a shallow depression in the distal volcanic edifice, and andesitic volcanisms first made of the hyaloclastites by quench fragmentation when hot andesite lavas flew into the depression to contact with cold water. and the Jipum volcano was finally covered with the thin andesitic lavas by lava effusions from another vent.

화산 유리질 암석을 출발 물질로 사용하여 저온 ($80^{\circ}C$)에서 수열 처리하여 Na-P Na-X 및 Na-A 제올라이트를 합성하였다. 합성과정은 (1) 유리질 분말 시료와 알칼리 용액과의 용해.변질 반응에 의한 1차적인 Na-P의 합성 방식과 (2) 여기서 잔류된 규산질 모액에 Al(OH)3나 NaAlO2의 수용액을 공급하여 보다 고순도의 Na-P, Na-X 및 Na-A를 효과적으로 합성할 수 있었다. 원암의 암상과 조성은 제올라이트들의 화학 조성과 순도 및 백색도같은 물리적 특성에는 영향을 주지만, 합성된 제올라이트의 광물종을 규제하는 주된 요인은 아닌 것으로 해석된다. 합성된 제올라이트의 광물상은 반응 용액의 pH, Al(OH)4 및 Na+에 대한 농도 조건에 주로 의존되는 경향을 나타낸다. 또한 화산 유리질 암석을 제올라이트 합성원료로 활용하는 데에 있어서 (2)와 같음 합성 방안이 보완적으로 시행되면 그 생산성과 효율성을 제고시킬 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

Tephrochronology is the study of tephra layers to correlate and date geologic events. As tephra layers can be used as time-markers, they are essential for the dating of Quaternary deposits. In this study, two types of tephra layers were found in the upper and lower parts of marine terrace deposits distributed in the Sanha-dong and Jeongja-dong, Ulsan areas. Based on the morphological features of glass shards, refractive indices, major element compositions, and similarity coefficients, the upper and lower tephras were identified as AT (ca. 25 ka) and Ata (ca. 105-110 ka) tephra, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first official report of Ata tephra on terrestrial deposits in Korea. These results are expected to aidin the research of the Quaternary paleoclimate, paleoenvironment, and active faults in the southeastern part of Korea.

Zeolites were formed by the alteration of volcanic glass in the volcaniclastics including tuff cone/rings and subsurface Seoguipo Formation, Jeju Island. Phillipsite and analcime were identified by X-ray diffraction and electron microprobe analysis. Si/(Si+Al) atom ratios of analcime and phillipsite were similar to that of parent basaltic glass. In comparison with the simple chemistry of analcime, phillipsite showed a range of cavity cation compositions. Na is the major cavity cations of phillipsite in the Dangsanbong and Yongmeori tuffs bearing analcime, while K and Ca in core samples of Seoguipo Formation. Microtextural analysis by scanning electron microscope showed a general sequence that early phillipsite encrustification of pores was followed by later analcime infilling. Zeolites are abundant in the older tuff cone/rings but nearly absent in the younger ones.

Hawaii Island makes up of five volcanos of Kohala, Mauna Kea, Hualalai, Mauna Loa, and Kilauea. They are big shield volcanoes rising above the Pacific ocean floor and final two volcanoes provide a natural laboratory for the study of active volcanoes. Mauna Loa is the largest single volcano on earth. At the submmit is an oval-shaped Mokuaweoweo caldera, from which two rift zones extend to the southwest and northeast, and in the medial part are the longest lava tube systems in the world. Kilauea has been formed largely by eruption along southwest and eastern rift zones extending from Kilauea caldera at the submmit. On the eastern rift zone, spectacularly, the 1989-1974 eruption of Kilauea at Mauna Ulu crater formed the Mauna Ulu lava flow field. The 1983-1986 eruption of aa flows at Puu Oo crater, and the activities of pahoehoe flows during 1986-1990 at Kupaianaha crater and during 1991-recent at the Puu Oo has produced the Puu Oo and Kupaianaha lava flow field.

제주도는 당근 재배면적이 2000여 ha로 전국의 50%, 생산량은 60% 차지하는 주요 월동작물이다. 재배지역은 화산회토 지역인 성산읍지역과 패사토지역인 구좌읍지역으로 크게 나눌 수 있다. 화산회토의 토양은 배수가 잘되고 토질이 부드럽고 작토층이 깊어 당근재배에 (Dowker and Jackson, 1977, Rubatzky and Quiors, 1999) 유리한데, 아직까지 이 지역에 적합한 품종이 밝혀지지 않은 실정이다. (중략)

This study investigated the comparative growth characteristics, yield, chemical compositions, and nutritive yield of Italian ryegrass cultivars harvested in a paddy field. The experimental design was a randomized block design with three replicates. The treatments consisted of seven Italian ryegrass cultivars (Kogreen, Kowinmaster, Hwasan 101, Kowinnearly, Kospeed, Sahalie select, and Strike). The planting date was October 21, 2009 and the sample harvest was occurred on May 21, 2010. Dry matter yield was higher in Kowinnerary and Kogreen than in the other varieties (p<0.05). Crude protein and ether extract contents were highest in Hwasan 101 and lowest in Kospeed. The content of total digestible nutrients did not differ among the Italian ryegrass varieties. The amino acid contents were in the order Hwasan 101 > Strike > Kowinnearly > Kogreen > Sahalie select > Kospeed > Kowinnearly (p<0.05). Fructose content was highest in Kospeed, while glucose and sucrose contents were highest in Hwasan 101. The results of this study indicate that Kowinnearly, in terms of dry matter yield, and Hwasan 101, in terms of feed value (chemical composition and free sugar content), may be recommended for forage production in a paddy field.
