This study uses a numerical model to investigate the circulation patterns of the tidal and wind driven current components. The model is vertically averaged 2-D transient using explicit nume-rical scheme, based on equation of motion and continuity. forced by water elevation at open boundaries and wind stress. The model domain extends from 35$^{\circ}$N to 36$^{\circ}$40'N lat., and 125$^{\circ}$E to 126$^{\circ}$40'E long. with x, y grid spacing of 5 km. The model reproduces the tide and tidal currents by 4 major constituents successfully with more than 90% accuracy when compared to two offshore tidal records and currents at one offshore measurements for 22 days. Responses of coastal waters to six schematic wind events are analyzed in terms of current distribution patterns and local features. Regardless of wind directions. strong coastal currents were produced. Bottom topography plays a critical role in producing a local eddy Held whose center is located offshore Pu An with its major radius of 40 km.

In semi-enclosed shallow sea areas typified by the Yellow sea and the East China Sea, currents and sea surface variations are predominantly tidal. During the recent years two-dimensional numerical hydrodynamic model of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea has been developed, based on the vertically-integrated equations of motion and continuity, capable of reproducing amplitudes and phases of the principal components of tides to satisfiable accuracy. As a subsequent development a three-dimensional hydrodynamical nymerical model covering the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea has been formulated to investigate the vertical distribution of horizontal tidal current and the response of the continented to investigate the vertical distribution of horizontal tidal current and the response of the continental shelf sea to steady uniform wind stress field imposed over the surface. Features of the M2 tidal current and the wind-induced three-dimensional current structure determined from the computation have been examined and discussed.

Tidal asymmetry would occur owing to shallow water tides at the Western Coast of macro tidal area. Especially, as ebb dominance of Mokpo coastal zone is known as the most prominent in Korea, it had been studied by domestic researchers. The cause of ebb dominance in Mokpo area is considered due to extensive inter-tidal zone in Muan Bay, and this has been studied based on amplification ratio, relative phase and skewness of tide/tidal flow curves in order to analyze qualitative tidal asymmetry. Furthermore, it was possible to figure out tidal characteristics with the difference of tidal amplitude and phase with Mokpo Harbor by observing the tide for 15 days in Muan Bay, which showed 40 minutes shorter ebbing time than at Mokpo Harbor. In addition, tidal flow prediction data in Mokpo North Harbor and Mokpo-Gu were analyzed. Meanwhile, the basis regarding qualitative interpretation of bed sediment and suspended sediment was provided by examining the qualitative changes in tidal asymmetry for spring-neap tidal cycle through the PCA/SWA indices. In addition, by examining long-term changes of ebb dominance in Mokpo Port, tidal characteristics of the past, present and future in this area, which is related to tidal asymmetry, is also provided.

A horizontal tow-dimensional version of POM (Princeton Ocean Model) was modified in representing the bottom friction and the open boundary conditions. To simulate the flooding and drying of intertidal flats, a wetting-and-drying scheme was incorporated into the model. The model then was applied to the Chunsu Bay and its adjacent coastal water. Only the water movement due to tides, the dominant forcing in the study area, was considered. This presents the procedure and the results of model calibration and verification for the Chunsu Bay system. The model was calibrated, using the average tidal characteristics in Tide Tables, for the amplitudes and the phases of tidal waves throughout the modeling domain. Calibration results showed that the model gave a good reproduction of tidal waves. The calibrated model was verified using the time-series measurements of surface elevation and current velocity in the summer of 1995. The model reproduced the tides currents very well. calibration and verification results demonstrated that the model is capable of reproducing the tidal dynamics in the Chunsu Bay system.

A time mean surface velocity field was estimated from AVHRR/SST in the Korea Strait. Time duration of SST data set was not different from tidal period and tidal elimination was investigated. The velocity field was estimated by inverse method and compared with results of ADCP observation and results of Odamaki(1989). In accordance with results. tidal component was eliminated partially in case that there were a little difference between total time interval of 557 data set and tidal period.

Through spot-investigation and observation of water quality environment of Jinhae Bay, this conducts the sea movement simulation on the current water quality of Jinhae Bay, grasps the flowing characteristics of Jinhae Bay and carries out ocean pollution simulation by using the data collected. Sea movement simulation results are tested by using Ocean Investigation Bureau's data of tide and current, and are also used in the ocean pollution spreading simulation. Water quality spreading simulation is conducted by using the data of sea movement and data of observation and then the results are compared with data of spot investigation. COD condensity is calculated and the water quality characteristics of Jinhae Bay are grasped.

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.

일반적인 연안 해역에서 창조지속시간과 낙조지속시간은 거의 동일한 수준을 보여 조위곡선은 대칭적인 형태를 띠게 된다. 그러나 M4분조나 MS4분조와 같은 천해조가 발달된 해역에서는 그 모체가 되는 M2분조나 S2분조와의 상대적인 위상차에 따라 조위곡선이 비대칭적인 형상을 띠기도 한다. 창조지속시간이 길 경우 낙조시 최대조류속이 크게 되는 낙조우세가 형성되는 반면 낙조지속시간이 길 경우에는 반대로 창조우세가 형성된다. 소류사의 움직임은 유속의 6승에까지 비례하므로 이러한 최대조류속 차이에 따라 창조우세 또는 낙조우세 해역에서 소류사 이동량에는 큰 차이가 발생할 수 있다. 감조하천의 경우 상류로 갈수록 창조우세화하는 것이 일반적인 것으로 알려져 있으며 국내에서는 금강을 비롯한 군산해역이 대표적이다. 창조우세인 군산해역과 반대로 영산강하구 및 목포해역의 경우 낙조우세를 보이고 있는데, 그 근원은 황해에서의 순환특성과 함께 목포해역 인근의 드넓은 조간대에 기인하는 것으로 추정하고 있다. 특히 인접한 무안만에서는 낙조지속시간이 창조지속시간에 비해 2시간 이상 짧아 국내에서 가장 심한 수준의 낙조우세를 보이고 있으며, 영산강하구 낙조우세의 근원으로 평가되고 있다. 한편 조간대가 발달된 해역은 천해조 생성에 따라 낙조우세 경향이 있음과 관련하여 Kang and Moon(2001)은 조간대가 조석파의 전파와 천해조 발생에 미치는 영향성에 대하여 수치실험을 통해 연구한 결과 무안만의 낙조우세는 조간대의 발달에 기인함을 재확인한 바 있다. 따라서 낙조 우세를 수치모형을 통해 재현하기 위해서는 조간대 모의가 필수적임과 동시에 낙조우세를 재현하기 위해서는 천해조 개방경계 설정이 필요하다고 알려져 있다. 또한 이렇게 천해조가 발달된 하구에서 조석비대칭 현상은 퇴적물 이동에 직접적인 영향을 미치게 되는데 Kang et al.(2002)은 소류사 및 부유사 이동에서 이러한 영향성에 대한 연구를 수행한 바 있다. 그 결과 천해조가 발달된 이러한 해역에서 퇴적물 이동과 관련된 수치모의시 M2분조와 같은 천문조 경계조건에 부가하여 M4분조의 천해조까지 포함시킬 것을 제안한 바 있다. 이와 같이 하구역에서는 천해조 발달로 인해 조석비대칭이 두드러지게 발달되어 있는 경우가 많으며, 감조하천 상류로 갈수록 비대칭은 더욱 심화되는 경향이 있다. 따라서 감조하천 하류부에서 조석을 고려한 경계조건을 부여하여 하천의 흐름양상을 수치적으로 모의할 경우 천해조가 발달된 하구역에서는 천해조가 포함된 경계조건은 필수적이라 할 수 있다.

This study presents an investigation of the changes of the currents in Kwangyang Bay due to the construction of harbor, reclamation and coastal developments. Currents were simulated by the numerical experiments with a diagnostic multi-level model and using the seasonal oceanographic data of temperature, salinity and ocean current. The values of kinetic and potential energies for the currents were calculated in cases of three topographical changes; before coastal developments, the existing state and after completion of the development project in Kwangyang Bay. The changes of currents due to the coastal developments are as follow; Kinetic energies of tide induced residual currents and wind driven currents decreased by 35~40 percent and 5 percent respectively, however those of density currents increased by 10 percent since the decrease of the coastal areas. Kinetic energy of residual currents including tide induced residual currents, density currents and wind driven currents reduced by 10 percent compared with before the coastal developments. Decrease of current velocity was greatest in summer. Therefore, in summer it was assumed that the Kwangyang Bay is more easily polluted by stratification and decrease of residual current than before the coastal developments carried out.
