Abstract
It is known that the cold water appears and fog frequently forms in the southwest coastal waters of Korea in summer. The authors investigate and analyze the time and place of cold water existence, and also whether the cold water affects the occurrence of fog formation. As a result, cold water begins to appear around Daeheugsando at the early summer and cold water area gradually moves toward southwest of Jindo in end July${\~}$early August, then disappears in this area around mid-Oct. Fog mostly forms in April through August and most frequently occurs at Jindo where sea surface temperature shows lower than that at the adjacent area Accordingly it is taken that the cold water considerably contributes to form the dense and frequent fog around Jindo area.
