A numerical simulations were performed to investigate the storm surge during the passage of Typhoon Maemi on the coast of Busan. The typhoon landed on the southern coasts of Korean Peninsula at 21:00, September 12, 2003 with a central pressure of 950 hPa, and the typhoon resulted on the worst coastal disaster on the coast of Busan in the last decades. Observed storm surges at Busan, Yeosu, Tongyoung, Masan, Jeju and Seogwipo harbors during the passage of the typhoon were compared with the computed data. The simulated storm surge time series were in good agreement with the observations. The simulated peak storm surges were estimated to be 230 cm at Masan harbor, 200 cm at Yeosu harbor and Tongyoung harbor, and 75 cm at Busan harbor. The computed storm surges along the east coast of Busan measure 52 to 55 cm, exhibiting a gradual reduction in surge height as one moves further from the coast of Busan. Therefore, coastal inundation due to the storm surge in the semi-enclosed bay can induce great disasters, and the simulated results can be used as the important data to reduce the impact of a typhoon-induced coastal disaster in the future.

Busan, where the coastal ecosystem health is deteriorating due to high development pressure and intensity of use, needs ecosystem management that considers humans and the natural environment together for sustainable use and ecosystem preservation of the coastal areas. In this study, the InVEST model was applied to assess the habitat status of the coastal land and coastal sea to manage the ecosystem based on habitats. As a result of the assessment of the coastal land, the habitat quality of Gadeok-do, Igidae, and Sinseondae, Gijang-gun are high, and Seo-gu, Jung-gu, Dong-gu, and Suyeong-gu are low. In the case of the coastal sea, the habitat risk of the Nakdong river estuary is low, and some areas of Yeongdo-gu, Saha-gu, Gangseo-gu are high. Therefore, for the sustainable use and preservation of coastal ecosystems, it is necessary to prepare ecosystem-based management measures to improve damaged habitats and reduce threats. In addition, the impact on coastal seas should be fully considered when planning coastal land development. The results of the InVEST habitat quality model in coastal land show similar tendencies to the biotope and environmental conservation value assessment map. The results of the habitat risk assessment in the coastal sea are expected to be utilized to identify habitats in the coastal sea and management of threat factors.

2000~2009년 동안 격월로 관측한 수온 관측 자료를 분석하여 표층 수온이 10년 동안 약 $1{\sim}1.9^{\circ}C$ 상승하는 경향을 관찰하였다. 상승폭이 해역마다 약간의 차이를 보이고 있는데 부산해역은 약 $1.5^{\circ}C$, 여수해역은 약 $1.7^{\circ}C$, 제주북부에서도 약 $1.7^{\circ}C$의 상승폭을 보임으로서 남해 동쪽보다는 서쪽해역의 상승폭이 약간 높게 나타났다. 남해 연안수의 평균 수온이 증가하는 추세경향으로 미루어 볼 때 남해 수온전선이 약해지게 되어 결과적으로 연안쪽으로 밀릴 것으로 추정된다. 제주도 모슬포는 약 $1.9^{\circ}C$ 가 상승하였으며 제주도 성산포는 2004~2009년 동안 약 $1.2^{\circ}C$ 상승하는 추세를 보였다. 이와 같은 수온의 변동성은 조위관측소에서 관측된 수온에서도 확인할 수 있는데 부산은 $0.2^{\circ}C$/8년, 여수 $0.4^{\circ}C$/10년, 제주북부는 $1.5^{\circ}C$/10년, 모슬포와 성산포는 $1^{\circ}C$/6년, 서귀포는 $1.7^{\circ}C$/8년 상승폭을 보인다. 조위관측소의 수온 상승폭보다 한국연안해류조사의 수온 상승폭이 약간 높게 나타나고 있는데 이는 관측소의 위치가 해안가에 있는 반면 연안해류조사는 선박을 이용하여 외해쪽에서 수온을 관측하기 때문에 고온 고염의 대마난류(Tsushima Warm Current) 영향을 더 많이 받았기 때문으로 볼 수 있다. 해수의 수온 상승 현상은 증가율이 약간 낮기는 하지만 50m 수심에서도 나타나고 있다. 부산해역, 여수해역, 제주북부 해역은 모두 약 $1.2^{\circ}C$의 상승폭을 보였으며, 제주도 성산포는 약 $1.1^{\circ}C$인 반면, 모슬포 해역에서는 약 $1.5^{\circ}C$로 상승추이가 크게 나타났다. 이와 같이 남해 연안수가 표층과 저층에서 동반 상승했다는 것은 대마난류의 세력이 강해졌다는 것을 보여주는 지시자(indicator)로서 최근 제주도와 남부지방의 기후온난화와 관련이 있을 것으로 추정된다. 하지만 상승률은 관측기간이 길어질수록 작아지는 경향이 있기 때문에 남해의 물리적 특성 변화를 보다 명확히 규명하기 위해서는 좀 더 장기적인 자료가 필요하다.

We measured salinity and $^{222}Rn$ concentration to explore submarine spring along the coastal areas (Mundongri, Icheon-ri, Jukseong-ri, Daebyeon-ri, Yeonhwa-ri, and Dadae-po) including Ilkwang Bay of Busan Metropolitan City in 2009 and 2010. Before field observation, we selected the potential and possible locations of submarine spring based on the lineament distribution and rose diagram analysis. Salinity and radon concentration were measured within the 1~2 km from the coastal lines. Radon activity decreased gradually from onshore to offshore. Vertical profiles of salinity at some stations showed lateral transport of water mass characterized by low salinity. Vertical profiles of salinity in the Ilkwang Bay, which is a unique bay in the south-eastern coastal area of Busan Metropolitan City, also showed the occurrence of low salinity in the bottom seawater. Our results suggest the possible occurrence of submarine discharge of fresh groundwater in the coastal areas around Busan Metropolitan City. In the future, intensive research should be conducted for the exploration methods of submarine spring as well for the possible utility of submarine groundwater as alternative water resources.

To cope with climate change, studies are being conducted on natural-based solutions (NBS) that reduce carbon by utilizing ecosystems and ecological resources ultimately to achieve carbon neutrality. In this study, carbon storage and economic value evaluations were conducted of the coastal land and sea of Busan using InVEST's Carbon and Coastal Blue Carbon models, which are ecosystem service-based evaluation models. As a result, it is estimated that the amount of carbon storage per unit area is lower than that of the entire Busan land area and that if the currently underway or planned development works are completed, the carbon storage of the coastal land areas would be decreased more. Coastal sea areas have less carbon storage than coastal land, but there is great potential for NBS that utilize ecological resources in the future. If the reclamation of public water affects important habitats with high carbon storage levels, it will reduce these levels, and such negative effects could last for a long time. For the sustainable management of Busan coastal areas, ecosystem service-based management strategies are needed considering carbon storage.

In current stage, it is hard to predict the scale of damage caused by natural disaster and it is hard to deal with it. However, in case of disaster planning level, if it is possible to predict the scale of disaster then quick reaction can be done which will reduce the damage. In the present study, therefore, function of wind wave damage estimation among various disaster is developed. Damage of wind wave and typhoon in eastern and Jeju coastal zone was collected from disaster report (1991~2014) published by Ministry of Public Safety and Security and to reflect inflation rate, 2014 damage cost was converted. Also, wave height, wind speed, wave direction, wave period, etc was collected from Meteorological Administration and Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Administration web site. To reflect the characteristic of coastal zone when wave damage occurs, CODI(Coastal Disaster Index), COSI(Coastal Sensitivity Index), CPII(Coastal Potential Impact Index) published by Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency in 2015 were used. When damage occurs, function predicting wind wave damage was developed through weather condition, regional characteristic index and correlation of damage cost.

A neritic copepod previously known as Acartia clausi Giesbrecht in the Korean waters was taxonomically re-examined, and the species has been identified as Acartia omorii and Acartia hudsonica. These species are easily discriminated by the morphology of the 3rd segment of the 5th right leg in male and by the shape of the genital segment in female. A. omorii occurs along the coast of Korea, and A. hudsonica is restricted to the brackish waters of Pusan area.

해수면 상승의 예측에 대한 근본적인 불확실성은 전 지구적 해수면 상승에 대한 가속도와 상대적으로 해수면에 영향을 미치는 지역적인 요소와 연관되어 있다. 최근, 기후 모형을 포함하는 다양한 모형의 결과와 빙하 관측자료, 그리고 이들의 해수면에 대한 기여도는 해수면 상승이 가속화될 것이라는 사실을 나타내지만, 아직 조수 관측과 위성 자료들은 이와 관련된 근거를 발견하지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 연안도시 계획 설계자들이 이러한 해수면 상승의 불확실성을 고려할 수 있도록 미래 해수면 상승의 확률론적 산정을 제공하기 위해 최근 해수면 상승 가속과 그 상승률에 대해 선택된 분포와 관측 해수면 자료의 합성을 제시한다. 결과는 프로젝트 취약성을 평가하기 위한 위험도 기반 관리체계의 기준으로서 사용 될 수 있다. 또한, 기후 영향에 의한 해수면의 동역학적 지질물리학의 이해도를 증진시킴으로써, 분포의 선택과 정확성, 그리고 해수면 상승 예측이 개선될 것이라고 기대 된다. 본 연구에서 제시된 방법론은 사례연구로 부산에 적용되어 설명되어 진다.

This study assessed the facility volume distribution for artificial reefs (ARs) deployed at the sea bottom in fishing grounds in the Busan Sea region, and estimated the efficient use of volume in the initial AR group. Analysis of the volume of AR facilities in the Busan Sea region indicated that the quantity and surface areas of deployed facilities varied greatly between 1997 and 2004. However, a rapid decrease in AR facility volume after 2003 indicated an increased use of different kinds of ARs, such as steel or ceramic ARs. And the results revealed that a total of 2,777 AR facilities were deployed in the Gijang sea region with a founding ratio of 89%; corresponding numbers for the Heaundae and Namgu sea region were 7,691 and 84.9%, and 905 and 96% for the cubic type of AR in the Saha and Gangseo sea regions. The analysis indicated that ARs deployed in the Busan sea region maintained a good conservation ratio of more than 85%. The loss in AR volume (approximately 15%) was due to subsidence, breakaway, and incomplete deployment.

In order to assess seasonal and geographical characteristics of pollutant Escherichia coli, we investigated its distribution in Nakdong River mouth and Busan coastal water from February 2013 to November 2015. The coastal area was divided into five different zones (I-V) based on the pollutant level and geographical characteristics. During the study periods, water temperature and salinity varied from 7.50 to 27.64℃ and 16.82 to 34.82 psu, respectively. The annual water temperature variation was characterized in temperate zone. The salinity was significantly (p<0.05) decreased in zone IV and zone III after heavy rain during summer season in 2014, resulting led to elevated E. coli biomass. The highest colony formation of E. coli was recorded at 6,000 cfu l^-1 during autumn at station 1 (zone I). On the other hands, during all seasons of 2015, E. coli abundances were kept to be low level in zone III. The E. coli was not significantly (p>0.05) correlated with water temperature. However, the salinity was significantly (r=-0.53, p<0.05) correlated with the E. coli, implying that salinity plays a crucial role in the proliferation of E. coli. Consequently, E. coli in western Busan coastal water might have been significantly promoted by pollutant sources from Nakdong Rive discharge during the spring and summer rainy seasons depending on annual rainfall variations. On the other hands, E. coli in station 1 (i.e., Suyeong Bay) was obviously high due to influences of discharge water from municipal wastewater treatment plant. However, there was no clear seasonality of E. coli.
