Finite element grid system using h-refinement on the Yellow Sea was constructed based on previous study (Suh, 1999b) from 14 K to 210 K and special attention was concentrated on refining the coastal zone. In grid generation, depth change between adjacent points and non-dimensional tidal wave length ratio were considered. As a result approximately a quarter of the total nodes are located nearby 5 m of shallow area. Accurate bathymetry data using 30's and ETOPO1 with open boundary conditions of 8 major tidal constituents extracted automatically from FES2004 have been applied. In tidal simulation a 3-dimensional nonlinear harmonic model was setup and tidal amplification due to changes in vertical turbulent and bottom friction were simulated. In this study not only 8 major tidal constituents but also nonlinear shallow tides $M_4,$, $MS_4$ and long period $M_f,$, $M_{sf}$ were reproduced. It is found that implication of spatial variation of friction coefficient plays a very important role in reproduction of astronomical and shallow tides which are computed by iterative computation of nonlinear terms. Also it should be considered differently with respect to tidal periods. To understand the distribution of tidal asymmetry, amplitude ratio of $M_4/M_2$ and phase differences $2g(M_2)-g(M_4)$ were calculated. Tidal distortion ratio marks up to 0.2 on the west coast showing shallow coastal characteristics and somewhat wide range of ebb-dominances in front of Mokpo area are reproduced.

Double-peak normal distribution function was suggested as the probability density function of the non-tidal components (NTC) data in Korean coastal zone. Frequency distribution analysis of the NTC data was carried out using hourly tidal elevation data of the ten tidal gauging stations, i.e., Incheon, Gunsan, Mokpo, Jeju, Yeosu, Masan, Gadeokdo, Busan, Pohang, and Sokcho which were served through the Internet Homepage by the National Ocean Research Institute. NTC data is defined as the difference between the measured tidal elevation data and the astronomical tidal elevation data using 64 tidal constituents information. Based on the RMS error and R2 value comparison analysis, it was found that this suggested function as the probability density function of the NTC data was found to be more appropriate than the normal distribution function. The parameters of the double-peak function were estimated optimally using Levenberg-Marquardt method which was modified from the Newton method. The standard deviation and skewness coefficient were highly correlated with the non-tidal constants of the tidal gauging stations except Mokpo, Jeju and Sokcho stations.

Statistical characteristic analysis was carried out using the non-tidal components computed by the harmonic analysis of the tidal elevation data in East coast. The tide gauging stations included in this study are the Sokcho, Mukho, Hupo, Pohang, Ulsan and Ulreungdo stations. In this study, the variance and skewness coefficient (SC) information changes, i.e., the max. value, min. value, mean and standard deviation of the variance and SC, are compared and analysed in detail by the various analysis periods increased from one year to the maximum available period. Based on the result of the statistical information (SI) range analysis, the minimum analysis period required in order to satisfy the confidence interval of the ${\pm}5%$ range of the variance and the ${\pm}0.1$ range of the SC is suggested as the 12 years, except the Ulreungdo stations. The auto-correlation and spectral density change patterns show the very similar shapes in every stations even though the absolute values are a little bit different each other.

감조하천은 조석파의 영향으로 자연하천과 달리 매우 복잡하고 다양한 흐름특성을 보인다. 흐름이 하류에서 상류 방향으로 흐르기도 하며, 유속분포는 왜곡되어 수면 근처보다는 하상 근처의 유속이 큰 형태를 보이기도 한다. 또한 만조시 수면경사는 바다의 조위가 하천의 수위보다 높은 역경사를 보이고, 수위변화량은 조위의 변화에 따라 변동하게 되는 복잡한 흐름특성을 보인다. 이와 같은 흐름특성은 감조구간의 하상변동, 생태환경, 수질 등에 큰 영향을 미치게 되기 때문에 조사, 분석이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 감조하천 구간에서 3차원 유속측정장비인 ADCP(Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler)로 측정된 자료 및 수위관측소의 수위자료를 활용하여 시간변화에 따른 수위변화량 및 유속분포 특성을 분석하고, 수면경사, 수위변화량 등과 유량과의 관계를 분석함으로서 향후 다양한 연구에 활용할 수 있는 자료를 제공하고자 한다.

British Hydraulics research Station's Sparse Scheme was suggested for the solution of two dimensional finite difference tidal equations. 2D-numerical tidal model formed with 4.8km rectangular cells was set up to find out the barrage effects on tidal ranges of some possible areas for tidal power generation in Korea. The comparisons were made hetween spring tidal ranges with and without barrages at the entrance of Asan Bay, Garorim bay, Cheonsu bay and near Incheon Bay. Because of the coarseness of the grid, the model results could not represent the values of changes precisely. However the results show that the tidal amplitude near Incheon Bay increased by about 40cm by setting a barrage and about 50cm increase near the entrance of Asan Bay, respectively. But there were only a few centimeter changes in other areas.

Characteristics of hydrography and tidal currents were investigated in Hampyung Bay through in situ CTD data, tidal currents and elevations. According to the seasonal weather variability, hydrography showed the lower density with high temperature and low salinity in summer and the higher density with low temperature and high salinity in winter. In particular, the thermal structure like a tidal front was formed along the central channel at the neap tide of summer. The critical value of the parameter $SH(=log_{10}(H/U^3)$ where H is depth and U is $M_2$ tidal current amplitude) representing the formation position of tidal front was estimated from 2.4 to 3.5. In addition, the potential energy anomaly $({\phi})$ was ranged between 0.985 and 6.998 Joule/$m^3$, which gradually increased from the mouth into the inner bay. This front may be caused by the unique topography with wide tidal flat and the local difference of tidal current strength. The observed tidal currents at the mouth of bay showed that the ebb time was shorter than the flood time with the increase of depth. This asymmetric ebb-tide dominance is interpreted as a result of tidal distortion by the development of a shallow-water-constituent in Hampyung Bay with a wide macro-tidal flat.

The characteristics of suspended sediment transport are analyzed at the estuaries which show significant shallow water tides, following the previous research for bottom sediment transport at the same estuaries. Several theories which are related with the formation and transition of turbidity maximum are reconfirmed by the numerical experiments. The experiments suggest the necessity of modeling the shallow water tide as a boundary condition, as was also suggested for the bed sediment transport at the previous research. Both the differences of transport characteristics between bed and suspended sediment and the differences between flood/ebb dominances and high/low water dominances are also examined at the Keum River and Youngsan River estuaries. In addition, the transport of bed and suspended sediments are found to have the opposite directions at the Youngsan River estuary which has extensive tidal flat, and thus shows pronounced ebb dominance, which is considered to be a main reason of keeping present bathymetry.

하천의 본류와 지류가 만나는 합류부 흐름특성은 단일 하천에 비하여 수위, 유속, 경사, 유량 등 복잡한 수리학적 특성이 나타나게 된다. 특히, 홍수기 큰 호우사상이 발생하는 경우 본류와 지류에서 유입되는 각 유량의 크기에 따라 수위에 영향을 미치고 지류와 본류에 배수(back water)가 발생한다. 이러한 배수영향은 합류부 유량 산정에 있어서 매우 복잡한 요소로 작용한다. 일반적인 단일 하천에서는 수위가 증가하면 유량이 증가하여 수위관측소 수위 자료를 기반한 수위-유량관계곡선식을 이용하여 유량을 산정한다. 그러나 합류부에서는 배수영향으로 인하여 수위가 증가하더라도 수면경사가 완만해져 수위-유량관계곡선식 변수인 수위를 이용한 방법으로는 유량산정에 어려움이 있다. 따라서 조석 및 배수 영향 등 고리형 수위-유량관계가 발생하는 하천에서는 ADCP를 이용한 자동유량계측 방법을 채택하고 있다. 그러나 자동유량계측 시설을 설치하기 위해서는 고가의 비용이 발생하기 때문에 경제적 측면만 본다면 주요 지점이 아닌 모든 합류부에 설치하는 것은 어려움이 많다. 금강에 위치한 영동군(양강교) 관측소의 경우 하류 약 400m 우안측에서 유입되는 영동천의 영향으로 호우사상이 발생 할 경우 배수영향으로 고수위에서 상류 금산군(제원대교) 관측소와 첨두유량의 도달시간 및 유량 크기에서 역전이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 초기 단계로서 영동군(양강교) 관측소가 위치한 금강과 영동군(초강교) 관측소가 위치한 영동천이 만나는 합류부에 수위계를 설치하였다. 호우사상별 유출에 따른 본류와 지류의 수면경사를 분석하여 배수영향이 시작되는 수위와 수위 상승으로 배수영향이 미미해지는 수위를 분석하여 배수영향 특성을 검토하였다. 이러한 분석은 기존 배수조건에서 왜곡된 유량 자료를 생산하는 수위-유량관계곡선식의 문제점을 개선하여 앞으로 정확한 유량산정 방법을 제시할 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 분석을 통하여 추후 합류부에서 배수영향 조건의 고리형 수위-유량관계곡선식 매개변수로 수위 외에도 수면경사를 고려한 수위-유량관계곡선식을 개발하는데 목적이 있다.
