Abstract

Even though recurring eddies at the terminal end of the East Korean Warm Current have been identified in the thermal infrared imagery from the NOAA/AVHRR sensor and ocean color data from Orbview-2/SeaWiFS sensor, it is difficult to make observation in the field regarding recurring eddies located around the Wonsan coastal area in North Korea. But we could get in situ data related to an eddy from an ARGOS satellite tracking drifter trapped in the eddy on January 4th, 1999. An ARGOS drifter, a NOAA satellite tracked buoy was trapped by the eddy during January 4th.March 18, 1999. The ARGOS drifter rotated 10 times per 72 days on the edge of the eddy located at $39^{\circ}N$, $129^{\circ}E$. The diameter of the eddy was about 100 km. The horizontal rotation velocity of the recurring cold-core anti-cyclonic eddy was 1.53 km/h(42 cm/sec). The sea surface temperatures of the eddy varied from $14.7^{\circ}C$ on January 5, 1999 to $9.6^{\circ}C$ on March 18,1999. To study the mechanism of the recurring eddy. we tried to find out the relationship between the vector of the drifter moving in the eddy and the wind vector in Sokcho and Ulleung Island located near the eddy in southern Korea, and the difference in sea level between Ulleung Island and Mukho. We hope the results of this study would be useful for calibration and validation data of simulation and numerical modeling studies of the recurring eddy.

위성자료를 이용하여 동해북부 원산 연근해역의 재발생 와동류에 대한 형태변동, 유속, 발생기작 등을 연구하였다. 1999년 1월 4일부터 3월 18일까지의 기간에 대한 ARGOS의 표류부이 자료(위치정보 및 수온), NOAA 위성의 AVHRR 자료(표면수온) 그리고 Orbview-2 위성의 SeaWiFS 자료(클로로필 a)를 이용하여 재발생 와동류의 수평공간 규모를 파악하였다. 또한 재발생 와동류의 기작과 변동원인을 규명하고자 속초와 울릉도에서의 풍향, 풍속자료, 묵호-울릉도간 해수면 차 값 및 해저지형과 와동류에 포획되어 있는 표류부이의 시.공간적 위치변동간의 상관정도를 파악하였다. 원산 연안해역에서의 와동류의 72일간 평균유속은 153 km/h (42 cm/sec)로 분석되었다. 이 와동류는 cold core, 시계방향의 회전, 직경 110 km의 수평공간을 가진 재발생 와동류로서 와동류의 중심은 위도 $39^{\circ}N$, 경도 $129^{\circ}E$로 분석되었다.
