A voltage measuring system specified for the voltage fluctuation of the Pusan-Hamada submarine cable is developed by adding circuits of differential amplification and analog-to-digital conversion to a microprocessor-based data logger with a data modem. This system is charaterized by its small size. no power failure. fully unmanned operation. and precise instrumental drift correction. In addition to the cable voltage and current it measures an ambient temperature and a mercury cell voltage in order to calibrate temperature effect and check its long-term stability. The data acquired by this system show that the voltage signal. comprising fast random noises with a constant width of about 0.2V. fluctuates within a range of about 1V and the fluctuation frequency is similar to that of tidal motion. The source voltage of power feeding equipment (PFE) for the cable system seems to be affected when the room temperature changes rapidly.

Chinhae Bay, included small ports, is the region which the red tide phenomenon is occurred frequently in summer season. Field sampling of 4 cross-sections in the bay resulted in detailed informations on cross-sectional velocity distributions, salt concentrations and discharge during one consecutive tidal cycle in summer season, 1983. High velocity cores reoccur two times a semi-diurnal tidal cycle at the same cross-sectional location, lower layer, in Kadok Channel during the spring tide. The tidal exchange ratio was estimated by Eulerian method. The range of exchange ratios in central Kadok Channel are 9.3-17% at the spring tide and 16.9-21.8% at the neap tide. On the other hand, its range in Masan bay-mouth is 8.7% at the spring tide and 2.0% neap tide, respectively.

Gravity measurement can determine the earth gravitational field, also is the fundamental to the research of earth gravitational field, geodesy and geodynamic, vertical movement of the crust, geoid surface, sea level and climate etc. Recently, National Geographic Information Institute (NGII) introduced FG-5 absolute gravity meter in order to lay a foundation for establishment of Absolute Gravity Network, and furthermore NGII plan to construct about 1,200 multi dimensional and function Unified Control Points(UCP) in nationwide. It will play an important role in development of high accuracy geoid model in South Korea. This paper explains the fundamental theory and method of relative gravity measurement, surveys the relative gravity of 21 stations using latest Scintrex CG-5 relative gravimeter. In addition, it calculates gravity values, compare and analysis gravity survey results using datum-free adjustment and weighted constraint adjustment. The results indicate show that datum-free and weighted constraint adjustment methods are available to determine high accuracy gravity achievement, datum-free method is more advantage than weighted constraint adjustment.

The analysis of wave parametric characteristics in sea regions in the vicinity of Korean Peninsula have been carried out using the third generation wave model, WAVEWATCH-III (Tolman, 1999) and four observed buoy data of Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). Significant wave height increases about 2-3 hours later after the increase of wind speed. Maximum correlation coefficient between two parameters appears in Donghae buoy data, which is at off-shore region. When land breeze occurs, it can be found that the correlation coefficient decreases. Time differences between wind speeds and wave heights correspond to significant tidal periods at all of the buoy locations except for Donghae buoy. After verifying the WAVEWATCH-III model results by the comparing with observed buoy data, we have carried out numerical experiments near the Kuroshio current and East Sea areas, and then reconfirmed that when there exist an opposite strong current in the propagation direction of the waves or wind direction, wave height and length get higher and shorter, respectively and vice versa. It has been shown that these modulations of wave parameters are considerable when wind speed is week or mean current is relatively strong, and corresponding values have been represented.

제주도 연악해역의 해일재해의 현황을 파악하기 위하여 제주도 연안해역의 폭풍해일과 기상조에 등에 의한 해일발생 및 피해의 자료를 분석 검토하고 제주도 연안해일의 위험도를 분석하기 위하여 제주도 연안해역을 대상으로 과거 태풍 중 각종 기록경신과 많은 피해규모를 준 태풍들을 대상으로 바람장 및 해일고를 분석 검토하여 태풍의 진로에 따른 해수면 상승을 산정하기위해 폭풍해일 수치모형(POM) 실험을 실시하여 폭풍해일고를 산정하였다. 제주항과 서귀포항 주변해역의 폭풍해일고를 산출하기 위해 16년간($1987{\sim}2003$)까지의 우리나라에 영향을 미친 태풍 중 8개를 선정(Maemi, Rusa, Prapiroon, Olga, Yanni, Janis, Gladys, Thelma)하여 폭풍해일고를 산출하였다. 수치모의 한 결과를 보면, 제주와 서귀포 연안해역에서 발생한 8개의 태풍에 대한 폭풍해일고의 발생시각은 대체적으로 관측된 해일고의 발생시각 보다 약간 늦게 해일이 발생하였지만 전체적인 해일의 시간변화나 크기는 비교적 잘 재현된 것으로 나타났다. 제주항 연안해역의 서귀포항 연안해역보다 높은 해일고를 보였으며, 해일고는 제주항, 서귀포항 모두 1m를 넘지 않았다. 제주항이 서귀포항에 비해 약간 높게 나온 이유는 태풍의 위치, 지형 및 수심, 태풍이 통과할 당시의 조석상황 등의 차이인 것으로 사료된다. 또한, 제주항과 서귀포항 연안해역이 폭풍해일고가 서해안이나 남해안에 비해 작게 나타났는데, 이는 제주도 해안선이 비교적 평탄하고 평행하게 이루어 졌으며 남해안에 비해 수심이 깊고 만의 형태나 V자형 및 긴내만이 발달한 지형이 없기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 보다 정밀한 예측을 위해서는 정밀한 수심자료 및 격자를 이용한 계산의 결과가 필요하며, 연안개발로 인한 지형과 수심변화에 따른 지속적인 수치해도 DB구축이 요구된다.

Recently, coastal damage according to the natural disaster like storm-surge, overflowing of the sea has been massively increased. In case of earth fill at the seaside, there are a lot of weak areas of the natural disaster and it has also high possibility that a large disaster happens. Thus flood expectation map in the reclaimed land using 3D spatial information was produced in this study. The area around Myungji, Kangsugu, Busan which was made with the large scale earth fils at the seaside was designated as a study area. Observation of both costal datum and ground height using the tidal date and field surveying dates was conducted. Terrain model using the GIS program was produced and than 3D building model was produced using 3D MAX. It was shown that there are possibility more than 50% if over 4.5m storm-surge is happening, as a result of calculating the virtual flooded area on the produced cartographic map.

Dynamic responses were measured using long-term monitoring system for Uldolmok tidal current pilot power plant which is one of jacket-type offshore structures. Among the dynamic quantities, the tilt angle was chosen because the low frequency response components can be precisely measured by dynamic tiltmeter, and the natural frequencies and modal damping ratio were successfully identified using proposed LS-FDD (least squared frequency domain decomposition) method. And the effects of tidal height and tidal current velocity on the variation of natural frequencies and modal damping ratios were investigated in time and frequency domain. Also the non-parametric models were tested to model the relationship between tidal conditions and modal properties such as natural frequencies and damping ratios.

A study on the concentrations of total suspended matters (TSM) and their distribution pattern was conducted off the west coast of Tae-An Peninsula during the spring season. Especially non-destructive and fine-tuned analysis for the size-distribution of suspended matters was made using SPECTREX instrument. Water masses were characterized by the typical tidal front, with vertically homogenous coastal waters and the strong thermoclines on the offshore area. Concentrations of suspended matters were generally less than 10 mg/l, but the concentrations increased up to 25 mg/l at the bottom waters and mid-depth waters. Mean particle size of the suspended matters were generally 5-6$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 8-10$\mu\textrm{m}$ for the fine-grained suspended matters and the coarse-grained suspended matters, respectively. They are considered to be composed dominantly of detrital materials. On the coastal area, landward side of tidal front, bottom sediments can be easily resuspended by the strong tidal currents, and therefore, deposition of suspended materials are thought to be rather limited. On the offshore area, however, suspended sediments mostly supplied from the northern part of the present study area near Kyunggi Bay are thought to be transported southward and/or southwestward along the mid- depth layer of strong thermocline.

To determine the precise geoid, the quality land gravity data as well as the accurate position information of the observation points are required. Here, the land gravity data should be processed in a consistent way from the raw data level producing the quality free-air anomaly being used in the geoid determination. In this study, we processed land gravity data of KIGAM(Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources) and Pusan national university which has precise position information acquired from GPS and raw gravity data. The conversion from readings of gravimeter to the gravity value, corrections of instrumental height and tide were carried out from the raw gravity data for each surveying session. Then, a cross-over adjustment was applied to generate a free-air anomaly for whole data with precision of 0.48 mGal. It is expected that the data processed through this study shall be a foundation on the determination of the precise geoid model in Korea.

Geum River Estuary Barrage is very important for the irrigation, municipal and industrial uses in the cities of Gunsan, Iksan and Jeonju. The Geum River Control Office has a flood forecasting system; however, the current system does not consider the backwater effects. As a result, it is very difficult to give correct flood information, and it is difficult to accurately assess the water resource supply and saltwater invasion into freshwater, as frequently occurs due to over-discharge during floods. In this study, we investigate the flood forecasting system for the Geum River reach influenced by the estuary barrage. The current system cannot consider the backwater effect because the estuary barrage blocks the end of the river. We calculated the discharge from the tide lock and evaluated the inside water level of the estuary barrage during floods. The results show that the calculation agrees well with the observed data at the river stage stations in the Geum River. The results also show that this program is a reasonable substitute for the current system.
