Field survey on the variational characteristics of water quality and chlorophyll a concentraion were carried out at the 25 stations for four seasons in Kogum-sudo(Straits) southern coast of Korean Peninsula from Feburuary to October in 1993. We made an analysis on biological factor as chlorophyll a concentraion as well as physicio-chemical factors such as water temperature salinity sigma-t transparency dissolved oxygen(DO) chemical oxygen demand(COD) nutrients (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, and silicate) N/P ratio and suspended solid(SS). The waters in the Kogum-sudo were not stratified due to the tidal mixing. And the high productivity in photic layer were supported by high nutrients concentration from bottom waters. The high concen-trations of suspended solid in straits had a bad influence upon marine biology of nature and cultivations. In Kogum-sudo had a sufficient nutrients for primary productivity during a year. Especially phosphate and inorganic nitrogen were high the other side silicate was very low. The source of nutrients supply depend on rather mineralization of organic matters and input of seawater from outside than input of freshwaters from lands. Phytoplankton biomass as measured by chlorphyll a concentratiion was very high all the year round and it was controlled by the combination o f several environmental factors especially of phosphate in summer and dissolved nitrogen in other seasons.

본 연구는 Bayesian MCMC(Markov Chain Monte Carlo)를 이용한 비정상성 빈도해석 모형에 외부기상인자를 결합하여 계절단위의 강수량을 예측하는데 목적을 두고 있으며, 그 중에서도 홍수 위험도와 관련하여 유용하게 이용될 수 있는 여름강수량을 예측 대상으로 하였다. 비정상성 빈도해석 모형을 기반으로 외부 기상인자에 의한 변동성을 고려하기 위해서는 대상 수문량을 한정할 필요가 있으며 극대치강수량과 연관성이 높은 장마전선, 태풍 등의 기상인자는 공간적 변동성 및 복합적인 특성들로 인해 예측인자를 구성하는 기상인자로 사용하기에는 무리가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 계절단위의 수문량으로 여름강수량을 대상으로 하였으며, 이에 영향을 미치는 외부 기상인자로서 SST(sea surface temperature)와 OLR(outgoing longwave radiation)을 도입하였으며, 낙동강유역 여름강수량과의 공간 상관성이 높은 지역의 이전 겨울 SST와 6월 OLR을 예측인자로 활용한 7~9월 여름강수량 예측모형을 구성하였다. 모형의 검증은 결과를 알고 있는 2010년 여름 강수량을 대상으로 수행하였으며, 모형의 적용은 현재시점에서 관측된 2010년 겨울 SST와, 과거 관측 자료를 토대로 가정된 2011년 6월 OLR을 이용하여 2011년 여름 강수량을 예측하였다. 결과적으로 모형 매개변수들의 사후분포로부터 불확실성 구간을 포함한 예측결과를 구할 수 있었다.

This study was performed to characterize the seasonal variation of water quality and sediment environment from May, 2004 to February, 2006 in 21 stations of Gwangyang bay. Gawngyang bay is located in the middle of south coast of Korea and semi-dosed with Yeosu peninsula, Gwangyang-city and Namhea-do. Water quality at the west coast of Myo-do were highly deteriorated than other stations. At summer season(July 2005), the concentration of the most analytical items were highly detected than other seasons and the lowest concentration was at the winter season(January 2005, February 2006). Especially, DIP and TP were highly detected around the coast of Yeosu industrial complex. N/P ratio were higher than 16 of Redfield ratio in the spring(May 2005) and winter(February 2006) at the surface layer. While at other seasons and most stations were lower than 16 of Redfield ratio. In the survey of sediment environment, ignition loss(IL), chemical oxygen demand(COD) and acid volatile sulfide(AVS) were in the range of $2.51\sim22.10%,\;2.65\sim48.41mg/g-dry\;and\;0.01\sim8.95mg/g-dry$, respectively. COD in surface sediment was highest at summer season AVS was highest at autumn. In sediment, the corelationship coefficients between COD and IL, COD and AVS were 0.65 and 0.44, respectively.

The aim of this study is to investigate the seasonal changes of phytoplankton communities based on the environmental changes in a dense oyster farming area (Hansan-Geoje Island) from June to December 2016. The water temperature varied from $14^{\circ}C$ to $28.8^{\circ}C$ and its salinity ranged from 29.4 to 34.2 psu. Nitrate+nitrite was kept at c.a. $3.0{\mu}M$ on the surface layer from June to July, below the concentration limit in August and early September, and then gradually increased from late September. Ammonia was high on July 20 and August 10, and its seasonal characteristics were not clear. Phosphate ranged from 0.01 to $0.7{\mu}M$ on the surface layer, and its seasonal changes were similar to those of nitrate+nitrite. Mean silicate concentrations were $10.7{\mu}M$ on the surface and $15.7{\mu}M$ in the bottom layer, and it was not acted as a limiting factor for the growth of phytoplankton. Among the phytoplankton community, Bacillariophyceae, Dinophyceae and Cryptophyceae was 61.2%, 22.5%, and 13.6%, respectively. In late June, dinoflagellate Prorocentrum donghaiense was dominant in the outer waters(St. T1), later on, Cryptomonas spp. and Chaetoceros spp. were dominant, respectively. From late September to October, diatoms Pseudo-nitzschia spp. and Chaetoceros spp. were stimulated under non-stratified condition after the typhoon. In December, A. sanguinea was found to be $1.7{\times}10^5cells\;L^{-1}$. Seasonally, relative high phytoplankton biomass may be favorable to maintain high production of filter feeder oyster in the dense oyster farming areas of Hansan and Geoje Island.

To assess the characteristics of phytoplankton community structures related to environmental factors, seasonal surveys were conducted in the vicinity of Dokdo. In 2019, phytoplankton of four phyla and 69 species were observed. During winter, unidentified nanoflagellates dominated, with an average of 3.19×10⁴ cells L^-1. In spring, unidentified nanoflagellates occupied about 50% of the composition and a variety of dinoflagellates appeared. The summer phytoplankton population showed very low abundance. In autumn, various species of Chaetoceros appeared, along with diatoms, such as Bacteriastrum spp., Guinardia striata, and Pseudo-nitzschia spp. In addition, tropical species Amphisolenia sp. and Ornithocercus sp. were observed in both 2018 and 2019. The diversity was high in the summer of 2018 and the winter of 2019 and the characteristics of each index varied. Cluster analysis was divided into four groups according to species and population characteristics regardless of the season. The stratification of spring was particularly weak. In the autumn of 2018, the water mass was stabilized in the same way as in the summer, which is considered a suitable condition for phytoplankton growth. However, in 2019, the water masses were mixed, resulting in a low population. In a phytoplankton comparison, the dominant group showed seasonal differences, except for summer when the population was low, and the difference was most pronounced in autumn. Therefore, the waters surrounding Dokdo have different environmental and ecological characteristics from the East Sea, but the seasonal characteristics of each year are considered to be different depending on the topography, various currents, the island effect, and other factors.

생태계에서 식생의 중요성은 식물이 일차적인 생산자로서의 역할뿐만 아니라 홍수 조절과 토양 등 지형의 여러 가지 환경요인을 변화시킨다. 일정 구간의 식물상과 식생분포는 그 하천의 환경요인과 밀접하게 연관되어 있으며, 환경요인의 변화에 따라 식물상과 식생도 영향을 받게 된다. 특히, 홍수 전 후에는 수중 및 수변에 분포하는 식물들에게 극히 민감하게 작용되고, 그 영향도 광범위하게 나타난다. 자연생태계에 있어 식생의 변화양상은 환경요인의 변화에 따라 달리 형성된다. 즉, 일정지역의 식물상과 식생은 지형, 토양(하상 입경의 크기), 수리 특성 등과 밀접하게 연관되어 있으며 이들 요인이 변하면 식물상과 식생도 영향을 받아 식물군락의 공간적 분포범위가 구별된다. 특히, 하천에서는 유수에 의한 지형 형성 과정이 역동적이며, 유수량과 수위의 계절적 변화가 심하여 식생의 구조, 공간적 분포가 다양하게 나타난다. 우리는 서울의 대표적인 도심 하천 중 하나인 도림천을 대상으로 조사하였다. 도림천을 4구간으로 홍수전($4{\sim}7$월), 홍수 후($8{\sim}10$월)로 나누어 월별로 식생의 분포와 거동특성, 수리 수질적인 특성에 대해 결과를 도출하였으며, 연구 결과를 통해 식생 별 하상입경의 변화와 하상변동, 세굴 및 퇴적 등을 분석하였다.

Seasonal variations in the community structure of larval fish assemblage in the coastal waters off Gadeok-do were investigated in May, August and November of 2019, and February in 2020. During the study period, a total of 85 larvae species belonging to 45 families were collected. The dominant species were Engraulis japonica, Gobiidae sp., Clupea pallasii, Decapterus maruadsi, and Callionymidae sp.. These five species accounted for 84.1% of the total number of larvae during the survey period. E. japonica, Gobiidae sp., D. maruadsi, and Callionymidae sp. were the dominant species in the summer, while C. pallasii was the dominant species in the winter. The Species Diversity Index was highest in the summer and lower in the fall and winter months, with the lowest values in the spring. As a result of cluster analysis using the number of individual larval fish showed that they are divided into four seasonal groups. In particular, due to seasonal changes in water temperature, an appropriate growth environment was formed in the summer, and an appropriate hatching water temperature for winter spawning fish species was formed in winter, reflecting the seasonal characteristics of the larval fish community.

The objective of this study is to determine the spatiotemporal influences of climatic factors and atmospheric aerosol on phenological cycles of the Korea Peninsular on a regional scale. High temporal-resolution satellite data can overcome limitations of ground-based phenological studies with reasonable spatial resolution. Study results showed that phenological characteristics were similar among evergreen forest, deciduous forest, and grassland, while the inter-annual vegetation index amplitude of mixed forest was differentiated from the other forest types. Forest types with high VI amplitude reached their maximum VI values earlier, but this relationship was not observed within the same forest type. The phase of VI, or the peak time of greenness, was significantly influenced by air temperature. Aerosol optical thickness (AOT) time-series showed strong seasonal and inter-annual variations. Generally, aerosol concentrations were peaked during late spring and early summer. However, inter-annual AOT variations did not have significant relationships with those of VIs. Weak relationships between AOT amplitude and EVI amplitude only indicates that there would be potential impacts of aerosols on vegetation growth in the long run.

A continuous monitoring of sedimentation rate and textural characteristics of surface sediments was carried out on the tidal flats in Kwangyang Bay, middle South Sea for two years on an every-two-monthly basis. This study shows that during the winter the tidal flats receive a thin surface layer of which texture becomes finer. In summer, the surface sediments were subject to rather abrupt erosion by occational typhoons and heavy rainfall resulting in a coarse-silt dominated texture. Due to nearly closed geomorphology of Kwangyang Bay, local waves created in the bay during winter are much subdued, in contrast to the rough wave climate and associated sedimentary cycle for open-type tidal flats in the Yellow Sea. In addition, unexpected artificial effects on the tidal-flat sedimentation by construction of a huge industrial complex along the shoreline of the bay are observed from a nearby tidal flat. Here, the sediments were consistently eroded without any sign of natural seasonal variations.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the seasonal variation of water quality parameters in Suncheon bay. We investigated at fifteen stations from October 2008to July 2009. picoplankton The salinity in the bay ranged from 8.8 to 31.9psu, DO ranged from 6.34 to 11.84 mg/L and the pH ranged from 7.80 to 8.34. The mean concentration of suspended solids ranged from 52.1 to 104.0 mg/L and COD concentration ranged from 2.27 to 5.33 mg/L. The total coliform group ranged from 6 to 37CFU. The concentrations of COD and total coliform group were relatively higher in the upper part of the Suncheon bay than lower one. The concentrations of nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, silicate were also higher in the upper part of the bay, because the large amount of fresh water was inflowed into the bay from the Dong stream and Isa stream. Because the N/P ratio was ranged from 4.54 to 9.61 in this study, the limiting nutrients was nitrogen in the Suncheon bay comparing to the Redfield ratio.
