This research focused on the regional and temporal attributes of tuff architecture in Mokpo, spanning the Japanese colonial period and the post-liberation era. It aimed to uncover the distinct regional and temporal features of tuff architecture by integrating concepts from vernacular architecture and regionalism, framed through a lens of critical regionalism. The study traced the historical progression of tuff architecture in Mokpo within this context. A significant part of the research was an in-depth analysis of four constructions by Son Yang-dong, a renowned technician in post-liberation Mokpo, to closely examine the contemporary relevance and regional significance of his work. Tuff, as an indigenous material, distinctly articulates the local architectural character. In line with regional properties of tuff, the material has adeptly responded to contemporary construction needs. This has laid a foundation for the development of innovative building designs and techniques. Tuff architecture is particularly noted for its exhibition of raw material textures, offering a unique aesthetic that diverges from classical Western architectural styles. Importantly, through the examination of Son Yang-dong's contributions, the study highlights the role of Korean builders in an industry dominated by Japanese influences during the colonial period, underscoring a strong regional identity. As a representation of Mokpo, tuff architecture not only upholds and protects regional identity within the broader scope of Western modernization and Japanese impacts but also plays a role in its progressive enhancement.

제주도 우도 응회구의 현무암질 화산재는 대부분 미약하게 변질되었으나, 지표부근에서는 연황색으로 변질되었다. 육상 환경에서 화산재의 표성 변질 및 고화과정을 조사하기 위하여 표성 변질 우도 화산재에 대하여 X선회절, 주사 및 투과전자현미경, 전자현미분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 화산재 입자는 현무암질 유리 기질과 사장석, 감람석, 휘석 결정으로 구성되어 있었다. 입자 가장자리로부터 유리가 선택적으로 변질되어 교질상 변질테가 형성되었으며, 큰 입자 중심에는 변질되지 않은 유리가 잔존한다. 변질테와 유리 경계에는 매우 얇은 용탈 유리층이 존재하며, 변질테는 Fe와 Ti이 풍부한 극미립 비정질 규산염과 스멕타이트로 구성되어 있다. 변질 유리에서 방출된 용존물은 공극에 벌집모양 스멕타이트 집합체로 다량 침전되었으며, 화산재의 고화작용에 기여하였다.

We present characteristics of hydrothermal chlorite and its interstratification with 7-a mineral phase that occur in the propylitic alteration zone of the Bobae sericite deposit formed in rhyodacitic tuff. Chlorite is found as disseminated fine-grained aggregate or replacement materials of precursor minerals such as Fe-oxides and amphibole. Based on X-ray diffraction(XRD), all chlorites belong to IIb polytype and the (060) reflections averaging 1.53~1.54a indicate a trioctahedral structure. Chemical compositions of chlorite show that the Fe/(Fe+Mg) values are mostly in the range of 0.44~0.53, and cation deficiencies in octahedral sites range from 0.06 to 0.37. Under scanning electron microscope(SEM) chlorite occurs as well-crystallized aggregates and is subparallely stacked in interstices or between grain boundaries of associated minerals. transmission electron microscopic(TEM) images reveal that chlorite shows regular layers with 14-a spacings, locally interstratified with 7-a or 21-a periodicities. The 21- a periodicity corresponds to the sum of the d001 values of chlorite and 7-a phase. The chlorite packet coexisting with 7-a layers displays abundant defects such as edge dislocations and layer terminations. Selected-area electron diffraction(SAED) indicates that chlorite and 7-a phase are randomly interstratified in the mixed-layer areas. We propose a lateral change of layers for the polymorphic transition of 7-a phase to chlorite.e.
