In order to understand the circulation of nutrient between muddy tidal flat and the surrounding coastal area, tidal time-scale variations in nutrient concentrations were seasonally investigated at the entrance of Hampyeong Bay. The results show that the temperature was higher in ebb tide and lower in flood tide during the summer, but it was lower in ebb tide and higher in flood tide during the autumn/winter. The salinity was higher in flood tide and lower in ebb tide during the summer/winter because of the inflow of external sea water resulting from the increase in the tide level. By contrast, the salinity was lower in flood tide and higher in ebb tide during the autumn. Salinity difference was lower than 0.3 psu between flood tide and ebb tide during survey period. Meanwhile, all nutrient concentrations observed in Hampyeong Bay was lower in flood tide and higher in ebb tide during the summer, and by contrast, it was higher in flood tide and lower in ebb tide during the winter. Characteristically, no clear variation of concentrations was found depending on the tide level during the autumn. This tidal variations imply that the muddy tidal flat of Hampyeong Bay supplies nutrients to the seawater in summer and removes nutrient from the seawater in winter. During tidal cycle, seasonal variation of nutrient concentration in seawater is considered as the result of complex interactions between the mud flat and external sea water.

Slack-tide sampling was carried out at 6 stations at high and low tide for a tidal cycle during spring tide of the early summer (June) and summer (July, August) of 2016 to determine the difference of water quality according to tide in Masan Bay, Korea. The mixing regime of all the water quality components investigated was well explained through the correlation with SAL. In the early summer and summer, TURB, DSi and NNN which mainly flow into the bay from the streams and SS, COD, AMN and $H_2S$ which mainly indicate the internal sink and source materials have a property of conservative mixing and non-conservative mixing, respectively. The conservative mixing showed a good linear relationship of the water quality between high and low tide, and the non-conservative mixing showed a variation of different pattern each other. Factor analysis performed on the concentration difference data sets between high and low tide helped in identifying the principal latent variables for them. In early summer, multiple effects (tidal action, natural influx and internal sinks and sources etc.) acted in combination for the differences to be distributed evenly in four factors (VF1~4), since there were few allochthonous inputs as a low-water season. On the contrary, in summer, the parameters showing large concentration difference at ST-1 affected by stream water were concentrated in one factor (VF1) and clearly distinguished from the parameters affected by the internal sinks and sources. In fact, there is no estuary (bay) that always maintains steady state flow conditions. The mixing regime of an estuary might be changed at any time due to the change of flushing time, and furthermore the change of end-member conditions due to the internal sinks and sources makes the occurrence of concentration difference inevitable. Therefore, when investigating the water quality of the estuary, it is necessary to take a sampling method considering the tide to obtain average water quality data.

It is not possible to define the earth's interior because of it complicity. However, it can be interpreted directly and/ or indirectly. Geophysics is the subject of this study. To study the possibility of construction supervision by geophysical method, geophysical prospecting was performed and studied at the SamYang pumping well area in Cheju Island, where, although underground dam was constructed, the saline water invade the pumping well area. This study focuses on the construction supervision by electrical measurements. Two electric resistivity survey lines are installed in the pumping well site, and at each line electric survey was conducted at ebb and flow tides. To increase the data quality SP (self-potential) survey was also performed. As a result the geophysical exploration methods explained the defect of construction well, and It shows that geophysical probe can be a useful tool for the construction supervision.

Surf-zone fishes in Daechon Beach, situated at the mouth of Cheonsu Bay, Korea, were collected by a beach seine during the spring and neap tides in August 1999. Short-term variation in species composition was analyzed based on tidal range, tidal level, and time of day. Of 24 species identified, juvenile pelagic fishes predominated in the number of individuals captured. Wilcoxon signed-rank test revealed that the number of individuals was significantly higher during the spring tide than during the neap tide. During the spring tide the fishes were more abundant at the low level than at the high level, while during the neap tide there was no significant difference. The mean density of pelagic fishes did not show significant differences between high and low tides. Demersal fishes were caught mainly in the water below the low level of the neap tide.

본 연구에서는 기수역에서의 GPS 전자부자를 활용한 계측 데이터와 염분측정 데이터를 비교분석하여 GPS 전자부자의 거동 특성이 담수의 실제 거동특성과 같이 일치하게 나타나는지 확인하고, GPS 전자부자에 대한 활용성을 증명하고자 하였다. 기수역에서의 담수와 해수의 분포를 확인하기 위해서는 많은 인력과 장비를 소모하며 수리량과 염분도에 대한 측정을 통해 분석을 할 수 있는데, 대표적인 수리량 측정장비인 ADCP 또는 ADV는 각종 측정 한계들이 존재한다. 따라서 이러한 기수역에서의 수체 구간별 흐름 특성이 어떻게 나타나는지 확인하기 위해서 GPS 전자부자를 활용하고자 하였으며. GPS 전자부자의 데이터와 수직방향으로 측정한 염분도 데이터와 비교하고자 하였다. 수영강 좌수영교 상류 1km지점에서 주입하였으며 간조 시와 만조 시에 유하시켜 수영강에 위치한 좌수영교와 수영교에서 각각 좌측, 중간, 우측에서 수심방향으로 측정한 염분도를 상층 중층 하층으로 평균하여 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 GPS 전자부자는 표면부자이기 때문에 만조 시 하류방향으로 더 뻗어 나가는것으로 확인하였고, 간조 시에는 흐름이 더디거나 정체하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 계측 결과는 담수의 흐름 특성과 일치하게 나타나는 것을 확인하였고 이러한 GPS Floater를 활용한다면 굳이 각종 수질을 측정하지 않아도 흐름 상황으로 간조인지 만조인지에 대한 상황과 염분 분포를 대략적으로 알 수 있다. 이러한 GPS 전자부자의 위치데이터와 시간을 잘 이용한다면 ADCP의 유속 측정에 대한 단점을 보완할 수 있는 Lagrangian 타입의 유속을 측정 할 수 있다. 이러한 GPS 전자부자를 하천에서 선주입으로 활용한다면 각 구간별로 수체에 대한 흐름과 유속들을 분석할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 또한 GPS 전자부자를 좀더 활용하여 IoT 기반 수질센서 등과 같은 각종 센서가 GPS Floater에 결합이 된다면, 흘러가면서 각종 데이터 정보취득을 통해 수체내 흐름을 분석하는 것뿐만 아니라 수환경 유출오염사고들에 대한 초기대응에 많은 도움이 될 것으로 사료 된다.

Since the estuary is a very complex place in which the sea water and the fresh water meet, it is very difficult to make a general analytical description of salinity distribution in the estuary. As an attempt to investigate the characteristics of salinity variation in the estuary of the Geum River, the field observations were continuously carried out at three points near the Gunsan New Harbor at the time intervals 1 to 1.5 hours during one tidal cycle and the data were analysed. The following results were obtained; 1. It was reconfirmed that most of the ratios of the salinity to the conductivity were widely distributed between the range of 0.5 to 1.0. 2. The salinity showed the peak at the high water, and then it began to decrease gradually and had the lowest value 0 to 2 hours after the low water. 3. The density current was generally the intense mixing type and when the river discharge was very large it was of the moderate type. 4. The vertical salinity distribution was not significantly affected by the wave height. 5. The maximum vertical salinity differences were generally less than 10 g/l and the time of the occurrence of the minimum value was 0 to 3 hours after the low water when in the spring tide and in the neap tide it occurred 2 to 3 hours after the high water.

Current observations were carried out in Jinhae Bay area during the period of January to February 1974. The data were synthetically analyzed and the characteristics of the water movement in Jinhae Bay were studied. The water movement in Jinhae Bay area is a reversing tidal current type and the Semi- diurnal tidal current is predominant. The ebb current begins at about high water time and the strongest current occurs at about 3 hour after high water. The flood current begins at 0.2-1.0 hour before low water and the strongest current occurs at about 3-4 hour after low water. The main ebb current flows to SE direction with the maximum welocity, about 100cm/sec and the lood flows to NW with the maximum velocity, about 70cm/sec. Generally, the ebb current in Jinhae Bay is more predominat than the flood current except at the west and the north coast area of Gadeog-do where the flood current is more predominant.

감조하천을 비롯한 주요 하천에서 수자원량의 정량화는 수위-유량관계곡선식 개발로부터 가능한 일이다. 그러나 신뢰성 있는 수위-유량관계곡선식을 개발하는 것은 수문관측의 불확실성과 현장의 열악한 사정 등으로 발생하는 오차들 때문에 어려운 일이다. 조위의 영향을 받는 감조하천은 무 강우에도 수위의 변동이 심한 특성으로 수위와 유량의 관계를 규정하는 것은 일반 하천의 경우보다 난해하다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 감조하천의 유출특성 분석에 관한 기초적인 연구로 향후 감조하천 구간에 설계되는 수공구조물의 설계, 혹은 치수목적으로 설계되는 유수지 등의 설계에 이용될 유량자료를 제공하기 위함이다. 유량자료를 생산하기 위해서는 대상 수위관측소지점의 수위-유량관계곡선식으로부터 수위-수문곡선을 유량-수문곡선으로 환산하여야 한다. 이렇듯 유량자료는 곡선식의 정밀도에 전적으로 좌우되기 때문에 신뢰성 있는 곡선식 개발은 중요한 일이다. 본 연구에서는 감조하천에서의 유량자료 생산과 유출 특성을 분석하고자, 만경강 수계에 위치하는 목천 지점을 대상유역으로 선정하였다. 2006년 저 평수기 및 홍수기에 걸쳐 유량측정을 실시하여 다수의 유량측정성과를 확보하였으나 조위의 영향으로 산만한 수리특성을 보였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이에 대한 영향을 파악하기 위해서 감조의 영향권에서 각각의 유량이 어떻게 변화하는지 검토하고자 국립해양조사원 해양자료실의 조위관측소에서 제공하는 군산외항 지역의 조석예보표를 이용하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 분석 결과, 유량측정 당시 간조와 만조의 영향권에서 측정이 이루어진 관계로 유량과 유속 등의 수리 특성이 많은 변화가 발생한 것으로 분석되었다. 이와 같은 영향으로 목천과 같은 감조하천의 경우, 저수위 측정성과는 그 분산정도가 심해 일반화된 수위-유량관계 곡선의 개발이 의미 없다고 판단되며, 홍수기에 측정된 성과를 바탕으로 고수위대의 수위-유량관계 곡선식을 개발하여야 할 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구를 통해 일부 확인된 바와 같이, 일반적인 자연하천이 아닌 감조하천의 경우는, 각각의 수위대별 유량 값의 변화가 발생하는 바 기간별 혹은 간조와 만조부를 포함하여 유량측정을 하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

In order to understand the importance of tidal action and $NH_4{^+}$ -nitrification in the removal of dissolved oxygen (DO) and $NH_4{^+}$, concentrations of DO, $NH_4{^+}$, $NO_2{^-}$ and $NO_3{^-}$ were measured with time for water samples collected at different tidal state in the eutrophic macrotidal Han River estuary. Field measurements indicated that most environmental parameters, except for the water temperature and DO concentration, were tightly controlled by the eutrophic freshwater runoff and large-scale tidal action. Dark incubation of the water sample at $25^{\circ}C$ showed that the removal rates of DO and $NH_4{^+}$ in high tide sample were 2.76 ${\mu}M\;O_2\;d^{-1}$ and 1.76 ${\mu}M\;N\;d^{-1}$ respectively, and increased to 5.66 ${\mu}M\;O_2\;d^{-1}$ and 3.36 ${\mu}M\;N\;d^{-1}$ respectively, in low tide sample. These changes indicated that microbial degradation and uptake of organic matter and inorganic nutrients were more active during low tide. $NH_4{^+}$-nitrification responsible for total DO removal in low tide (23.81%) and $NH_4{^+}$ turnover rates due to $NH_4{^+}$-nitrification in low tide (0.18 $d^{-1}$) were approximately 3.7 times and 3 times, respectively, higher than those in high tide. These results indicated that $NH_4{^+}$ -nitrifying bacteria introduced into the Han River estuary during low tide played a significant role in the removal of DO and $NH_4{^+}$. The decreasing removal rates in DO and $NH_4{^+}$ with the increasing tidal level seemed to be associated with the salinity impact on the halophobic freshwater $NH_4{^+}$-nitrifying bacteria. The results implied that anthropogenic $NH_4{^+}$ sources should be treated prior to the freshwater runoff into the estuary for the effective control of $NH_4{^+}$ in the Han River estuary. These results also suggest that parallel ecological studies on the chemoautotrophic nitrifying bacteria are essential for the elucidation of nitrogen cycles in the eutrophic Han River estuary.
