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.

In summer, the water colder than 14$^{\circ}C$ exists near the bottom in the South Sea of Korea. We investigate the characteristics and the origin of this bottom cold water by the analysis of temperature and salinity data. The salinity of the bottom cold water in June and August is 33.4∼34.0% which is lower by about 0.6% than that of cold water in April. In 1983, the water in August is colder than in June. These facts indicate that the bottom cold water in summer is not the same one formed in the South Sea in winter, but flowed into the area from the neighbouring seas. Based upon frequency distribution of the occurrence of the cold water and temperature and salinity analysis of waters in the Cheju Strait, it is suggested that the origin of the bottom cold water is west of the Cheju Strait.

The relationship of zooplankton communities and distributions of copepods as indicator species to environmental variables, such as temperature, salinity, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) was studied in Pusan Harbor in October 1990 and January, April and July 1991. Zooplankton communities were analysed by using cluster analysis and species diversity index. Four groups of copepods as indicator species were Acrocalanus gacilis, Euchaeta plana, pareuchaeta russell and Pleuromamma gracilis as the oceanic warm water species; Cemtropages abdominalis as the neritic cold water species; Meridian lucens as the oceanic cold water species Acartia omorii as the polluted water species. the offshore waters of Pusan harbor was dominated by the oceanic warm water species in October and by the neritic cold water species in January and April. This area showed the low values of COD and Tin. the inshore waters of Pusan harbor, where the high values of cod And Tin and the low value of diversity were recorder was represented by A.. omorii. Cluster analysis of the zooplankton community revealed two or three regional areas in Pusan harbor. Area I, the offshore area of Pusan harbor, not only was represented high species diversity and low density of A. omorii but also was dominated copepods in zooplankton roups. Areas II and III were grouped horizontally from offshore to inshore of Pusan harbor. Area II was showed intermediate values in diversity, density of A. omorii and percentage composition of copepods. Area III was revealed the lowest diversity,density of A.omorii and percentage composition of Cladocerans.Coperpoda was a dominant zooplankton group in each area during the study periods except two special cases.Area II was dominated by Noctiluca scintillans in April and Area III was occupied by Cladocerans in July.Distribution of Indicator species and areas demarcated based on cluster analysis showed a close relationship with environments.

This study looked into changes in catches of anchovy and production of sea mustard(Undaria pinnatifida) in Southern part of East Sea in Korea from 1990 to 2007 out of the fishing industry production statistics of Korea from 1969 to 2007, and then examined the relationship between the productions and the sea temperature. The production of sea mustard(Undaria pinnatifida) decreased when the sea surface temperature was high, as it adversely affected its production, while its production increased when the sea surface temperature was low, as this facilitated its growth.

We studied the fishing ground of a yellowtail and oceanographic conditions around Chujado and Marado around Jeju Island from autumn to winter. Also we investigate the forming mechanism of fishing ground around Marado, which shows the best catch of yellowtail near Jeju island. The obtained results are summarized as follow ; 1. When the high temperature water about 15.0∼19.0 in depth of 50m distributed around Chujado and Marado, the fishing ground of Yellowtail is shows a good catch. On the contrary, when the low temperature water about 11.0∼14.0 is shows a poor catch. 2. Fishing grounds of yellowtail by handline fishing are formed with a school of Yellowtail migrating southward from the coastal sea of Korea and slaying around Marado to winter and spawn due to following factors. Firstly, a front of temperature and salinity is formed between inshore water and oceanic water around Marado. Secondly, small-size eddies and excellent horizontal and vortical mix which is created by strong tide and geographical features including irregular underwater ground and an isolated island. An abundant school of yellow tails stays in front of the tide where a good fishing ground was made.

본 연구에서는 장기간의 현장관측 수온, 염분자료를 분석하여 동중국해 북부해역에서 계절별 수온, 염분의 변동 특성을 조사하였다. 표층의 경우 춘계 수온상승에는 공간적인 차이가 있다. 또한 서부해역($125^{\circ}E$ 이서)에서는 32 psu 이하의 저염 분포가 나타나고 제주 남서해역에서 33psu 이하의 저염수가 춘계부터 제주 주변해역으로 확장한다. 하계 표층염분은 $28.0{\sim}32.4$ psu로 연중 최저값은 보이며, 전해역 표층 염분이 33psu 이하로 저염의 양자강 희석수가 하계에 동중국해 북부해역 표층 전체에 영향을 미치고 있다. 추계의 표층수온과 염분은 동고서저형의 수평분포를 나타낸다. 수온 하강은 서부해역인 대륙 연안수역이 동부의 대마난류수역에 비해 크고, 서부해역에서 33psu 이하의 설상형 저염분포가 이시기에 남동쪽으로 관입되는 형태로 나타나 동계의 남북방향의 염분전선과 이어지게 된다. 연직해황의 경우 동계 수온과 염분은 활발한 대륙작용에 의해 전수층에서 균일한 분포를 나타내며, 대륙연안수역에서는 저온, 저염($12^{\circ}C$, 33psu 이하)의 분포를, 대마난류수역에서는 고온, 고염($16^{\circ}C$, 34.4psu 이상)분포의 지역적인 특성으로 구별된다. 춘계에는 수온약층이 형성되며, 저층에는 동계에 형성되어 대륙연안수와 외양수 사이에 고립된 $13^{\circ}C$ 이하의 냉수괴가 분포한다. 염분은 표층 저염화가 시작된다. 하계에는 양자강 유출수의 영향으로 전해역 표층에서는 30psu 이하로 전해역에서 저염화 양상이 나타나며, 표층에서 30m 층까지 매우 강한 염분약층이 형성된다. 추계 수온 엽문은 균일한 연직수온분포가 나타나며, 동부해역에서는 수심 $75{\sim}100m$사이에서 수온, 염분약층이 형성된다. 동중국해의 수괴는 뚜렷한 계절 변동을 보이며, 대마난류수역인 동부해역에서는 수괴 계절변동의 요인으로 계절 수온변동이 지배적이고, 수온변동은 춘계와 하계 사이에 가장 크다. 중앙부와 대륙연안역인 서부해역에서는 수괴 계절변동에 수온외에 염분 변화가 주요한 요인으로 작용하며, 염분은 하계와 추계 사이에 가장 변동이 크게 나타난다. 즉, 동중국해의 수괴변동에는 변동요인에 따른 공간적인 차이가 있으며, 수괴변화 특성으로 동중국해는 수온변화가 수괴변동에 직접요인이 되는 동부 대마난류수역과 염분변화가 수괴변동의 직접요인인 서부의 대륙연안수역으로 구분된다.

Water temperature data of National. Fisheries Research and Development Institute (NFRDI) during periods of 19m to 2002 were analyzed to investigate the effect of the water temperature on catches of anchovy and laver in the eastern part of the Southern Waters of Korea The annual catches of anchovy and laver increased gradually although they showed fluctuations each year. Our findings indicated tint the catches cf anchovy and laver were controlled by various oceanographic conditions, mainly water temperature. The appearance of cooler sea surface water, warmer water at 0 to 20 m depth, and bottom water of about $15^{\circ}C$ caused relatively lower catches.
