Abstract

The temporal variations of the transparency with water temperature, salinity and density during spring-neap tidal cycle of spring, summer, autumn and winter time were investigated at 34 stations using observation data in Deukryang Bay, Korea, in 1995. It was found that the transparency was depended on spread of tidal currents and vertical stratification of water. The depth of transparency during neap tide was deeper than that of spring tide. The value of transparency in summer was the largest among four seasons. We concluded that the vertical stratification intensity of water mass and vertical distribution of transparency.
