We have analyzed surface water temperature and seasonal stratification of lakes in the Han river system using time-series Landsat images and in situ measurement data. Using NASA equation, at-satellite temperature is derived from 29 Landsat-5 TM and Landsat-7 ETM+ images obtained from 1994 to 2004, and was compared with in situ surface temperature on river-type dam lakes such as Paro, Chuncheon, Euiam, Chongpyong, Paldang, and with 10m-depth temperature on lake-type dam lake Soyang. Although the in situ temperature at the time of satellite data acquisition was interpolated from monthly measurements, the number of images with standard deviation of temperature difference (at-satellite temperature - in situ interpolated temperature) less than $2^{\circ}C$ was 24 on which a novel statistical atmospheric correction could be applied. The correlation coefficient at Lake Soyang was 0.915 (0.950 after correction) and 0.951-0.980 (0.979-0.997 after correction) at other lakes. This high correlation implies that there exist a mixed layer in the shallow river-like dam lakes due to physical mixing from continuous influx and efflux, and the daily and hourly temperature change is not fluctuating. At Lake Soyang, an anomalous temperature difference was observed from April to July where at-satellite temperature is $3-5^{\circ}C$ higher than in situ interpolated temperature. Located in the uppermost part of the Han river system and its influx is governed only by natural precipitation, Lake Soyang develops stratification during this time with rising sun elevation and no physical mixture from influx in this relatively dry season of the year.

We described for the production of cloud-free satellite sea surface temperature(SST) data around Northeast Asian using NOAA AVHRR(Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) SST data during 1990-2005. As a result of Markov model, it was found that the value of Markov coefficient in the strong current region such as Kuroshio region showed smaller than that in the weak current. The variations of average SST and regional difference of seasonal day-to-day SST in spring and fall were larger than those in summer and winter. In particular, the distribution of the regional difference appeared large in the vicinity of continental in spring and fall. The difference of seasonal day-to-day SST was also small in Kuroshio region and southern part of East Sea due to the heat advection by warm currents.

The daytime and nighttime sea surface temperature (SST) differences and their seasonal variabilities in the East Sea were studied using Argos drifters data during 1996~1999. The SST differences for 1,438 data set were derived from 30 Argos drifters related to the NOAA satellite-based location and data collection system. The horizontal variation of SST differences in summer in the East Sea were higher than those in winter. The relationship between the SST differences and the half day moving distances of Argos drifters was studied. Monthly SST difference in the northern and southern part of 38$^{\circ}$N in the East Sea was considered. The SST differences derived from NOAA-14 satellite were compared with those from Argos drifter between daytime and nighttime in the turbulent eddy off Wonsan coast of Korea.

본 연구에서는 한국 남해해역의 해양환경 중 해수표면온도의 변화와 Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조의 시공간 분포가 밀접한 관련성을 가지고 있음을 파악하였다. GIS와 원격탐사기술은 한국 중남부해역에 적용되었고, 이 지역은 매년 하계에 적조가 최초로 발생하는 지역이다. 해수표면온도를 포함한 적조의 이동 경향을 비교하기 위해 현장조사에 의한 적조 분포가 조사선에 의해 수집되어졌다. 또한, 적조의 위성영상과 해수표면수온 분포를 Landsat 위성자료를 통해 획득하였다. 위성자료에 의해 추정된 적조의 분포와 해수표면온도분포는 유사한 패턴을 나타내고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 여름철에 한반도 남동부 연안해역에서 나타나는 적조의 분포와 이동경향은 이 지역의 해수온도 분포의 시공간적인 분포에 밀접한 관계가 있다.

This is a brief report on the development of a system which provides fishing vessels with a real-time key information that can direct to regions of high fish density. Water temperature and Plankton distribution are the base parameters and various public information have been examined and summarized. The suface water temperature can be obtained from NOAA's high resolution infrared data base and the vertical water temperature can be obtained from TAO/TRITON's buoy near the equator and ARGOS's drifting buoy covering wider Pacific ocean. MODIS's data is also utilized for sea color information. A model data format is proposed and a few examples are demonstrated.

The objective of this paper is to explore the short-term variability of sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll a (Chl-a) derived from satellite in the upwelling region of the southeast coast of Korea in summer. We particularly emphasize the spatial variability of SST and Chl-a in the East Korean Warm Current (EKWC) during summer monsoon. Spatial distribution of SST and Chl-a in the EKWC are described using SeaWiFS and AVHRR images in August, 2007. Spatial distribution of SST and Chl-a around EKWC can be classified into four categories in the profile of SST and Chl-a images: (1) coastal cold water region, (2) cold water region of thermal front, (3) warm water region, (4) cold water of offshore region.

저수지는 기존의 육상 수지에 직접적인 영향 뿐 만 아니라 수체가 육상에 머무르는 시간을 늘려 수온 및 수질에는 영향을 미친다. 이들이 환경 및 지역 기후 변화에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 주요인자로 기후 변화에 미치는 긍정적, 부정적 효과와 함께 중요성이 더 증대되고 있다. 위성 원격탐사는 북한 지역 등과 같은 현장 관측 자료의 수집이 어려운 지역을 포함한 전 지구 규모에서 저수량 변화를 추정하는데 유용한 자료를 제공한다. 우리는 광학 위성 (Landsat-8/9)과 능동형 마이크로파 위성 (Sentinel-1)를 활용해 한반도 지역에 분포하고 있는 저수지의 수체 면적을 산출하기 위해 2020년부터 2022년까지 자료를 수집했다. 저수지 표면적 산출은 전통적인 NDWI (Normalized Difference Water Index) 및 후방산란계수 (𝜎₀)에 multi-Otsu 방법을 적용하여 이진화 영상을 얻는 방식을 이용했다. 여전히 남아있는 과탐지 영역은 최대 표면적 영상과 상대 비교를 통해 제거했다. Landsat과 Sentinel-1 위성 원격 탐사 자료 기반 저수지 표면적은 높은 유사성이 있었고, 현장 및 위성 고도계 자료 기반 수면 고도 변화와 높은 관계성를 보여주었다. 실험을 통해 위성 원격탐사 자료를 활용한 한반도 지역 저수지의 저수량 변화을 추정했으며, 현장 관측자료와 비교했다. 이 추정 기술은 전 지구 저수지 및 호수로 확장할 수 있으며, 수문 모델의 검증자료 등으로 활용될 수 있다.

To investigate a short-term (from 2 hours to 24 hours) variability of a mixed layer, oceanographical data (water temperature, salinity, current) and meteorological data (wind, air temperature, solar radiation) were collected at a site in the Korea Strait at the interval of one hour for 48 hours from October 12 to 14, 1993. The average rates of temporal variations of the mixed layer depth (MLD) and temperature of the mixed layer (MLT), which are very weakly correlated with the wind stress and buoyancy flux at the sea surface, are about 5.2 m/hour and 0.2$^{\circ}C$/hour, respectively. The mixed layer is relatively shallow when both MLT and MLS (salinity of the mixed layer) are low, while MLD is relatively deep when they are high. MLT shows a sudden decrease or increase. Analysis of satellite infrared images and XBT data shows that sudden increase of MLT is caused by advection of warm water. These results suggest that the short-term variation of the mixed layer in the Korea Strait in autumn, in which surface current is relatively strong and different water masses exist, is mainly determined by advection rather than air0sea interaction such as wind stress or buoyancy flux.

미국해양대기국(NOAA : National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) 위성에 의해서 해수표면 수온자료를 실시간으로 제공하며, 이를 이용하여 우리나라는 한국해양자료센터(KODC : Korea Oceanographic Data Center)에서 해양과학정보를 수집 관리하여 연근해 어민 및 수산관련기관에 배포하고 있다. 그러나 원양어업을 하고 있는 선박에서는 통신요금의 문제로 제대로 제공받지 못하고 있다. 본 논문은 이를 해결하고자 수온정보 이미지의 변환, 압축을 통한 통신요금 절감 및 컬러 이미지 제공에 따른 판별력 향상에 도움을 주고자 한다.

An analysis of the coastal water temperature in the Tongyeong waters, the eastern sea of the South Sea of Korea, revealed that the water temperature rose sharply before the typhoon made landfall. The water temperature rise occurred throughout the entire water column. An analysis of the sea surface temperature data observed by NOAA(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) satellites, indicated that sea water with a temperature of 30℃ existed in the eastern waters of the eastern South Sea of Korea before the typhoon landed. The southeastern sea of Korea is an area where ocean currents prevail from west to east owing to the Tsushima Warm Current. However, an analysis of the satellite data showed that seawater at 30℃ moved from east to west, indicating that it was affected by the Ekman transport caused by the typhoon before landing. In addition, because the eastern waters of the South Sea are not as deep as those of the East Sea, the water temperature of the entire water layer may remain constant owing to vertical mixing caused by the wind. Because the rise in water temperature in each water layer occurred on the same day, the rise in the bottom water temperature can be considered as owing to vertical mixing. Indeed, the southeastern sea of Korea is a sea area where the water temperature can rise rapidly depending on the direction of approach of the typhoon and the location of high temperature formation.
