전 지구적 기후변화는 대기-해양의 물리 특성을 변화시켜, 연안 및 하구의 수온상승과 염도 변화의 주요 원인이 되며, 생태 환경 및 다양한 경제 사회 문제를 야기 시킬 수 있다. 이러한 변화를 예측하고 영향을 최소화 하기위해서는 연안의 물리 특성을 세밀하고 정확하게 예측해야 한다. 그러나, 기후변화의 영향을 고려한 대기-해양 전 지구모델의 기후변화 시나리오는 우리나라와 같이 작고 복잡한 연안 지형을 가진 지역의 미래 환경 변화 예측에 적합하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 저해상도 정규격자 모형인 RIAMOM(RIAM Ocean Model)의 결과를 이용하여 비정규격자 모형인 FVCOM(Finite Volume Coastal Ocean Model)으로 울산만의 미래 물리 특성 변화를 상세 예측하였다. 기후변화로 인한 대기-해양의 물리 특성 변화를 고려하여 한국 주변해 및 연안을 대상으로 모의한 RIAMOM의 결과를, 본 연구의 대상 지역인 울산만 FVCOM 모델 경계에 초기 값과 시계열 자료로 사용하였다. FVCOM 모의 결과를 RIAMOM 자료와 비교 했을 때, 초기 표층 염분과 수온이 각각 0.4%, 2%의 오차를 보였다. 조위는 개방경계에서 01~0.4% 정도의 오차가 나타나, 다운스케일링(downscaling) 기법을 통한 수치 모의 결과가 초기 수온과 염분 및 조위 특성을 잘 재현하는 것으로 나타났다. 2001년(현 상태), 2050년(미래), 해수면 상승의 영향을 고려한 2050년에 대하여 모의 한 결과. 정규격자 모형인 RIAMOM에서 나타나지 않았던 기후변화로 인한 표층 염분과 수온의 상세한 변화가 울산만의 태화강 하구에서 나타났고, 염수쐐기의 길이 또한 상류쪽으로 증가하는 결과를 나타내었다. 다운스케일링을 통한 대상 지역의 상세 모델을 통해 기존의 예측 모델에서도출할 수 없던 결과를 나타낸 바, 향후 연구를 통해 지역의 장기 상세 환경 변화 예측에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 예상한다.

Salinity distribution in estuary and tidal river is presented by many parameters including tidal forcing, river discharge and geographical effect. Understanding the characteristics of salinity structure is very important in the aspect of water-quality, ecological, and engineering viewpoint. Field measurement was carried out to study the distribution of salinity structure at 2 surface stations at Yeomha channel in the Han River estuary. The results of short- and long-term salinity change according to short and long tidal variability is investigated. For analyzing the axial salinity distribution at Yeomha channel, the salinity data from NFRDI is used in this study. The relationship between freshwater discharge and salinity distribution is represented through the nonlinear regression equation. The empirical equation for salt intrusion length scale, including tide, river discharge, and topographical effect is presented. As the comparison of empirical equation and existing data collected in study area, the characteristic of salt intrusion length and salinity distribution is changed by tide, fresh water, and geographical effect.

Some coastal oceanographic investigations in Kwang Yang Bay were carried out bimonthly from April to September (The first half period of the research project) in 1974. The behaviour of the waters, distributions of water temperature and salinity and diffusion characteristic by dye release experiments in the bay are studied for the problems of practical importance in connection with water pollution. Velocities and directions of tidal currents at five fixed stations were observed. And dye diffusion experiment was also carried out on the sea. According to the results from this study, the salinity of the water is lower, ranging from about $28\;\textperthousand\;to\;32\textperthousand$, on all over the surface in the bay with the cause that the fresh water flows in from the Sumjin river. Diffusivities in this sea by means of Rhodamine B diffusion elliperiment were $785.6\;{\times}\;10^2\;\textrm{m}^2/sec$ in major axis, $15.6\;{\times}\;10^2 \;\textrm{m}^2/sec$/sec in minor axis in the direction on patch after 30 minutes from the dye release.

In order to investigate the seasonal variation of watermass in the adjacent sea of Naro Island, oceanographic observation on the fishing grounds were carried out by the training vessel of Yosu National University on winter, spring, summer, and autumn in 2000. The results obtained are summarized as follows ; 1) the watermass in the fishing ground were divided into the coastal water (30.0∼31.4psu), mixing water (31.5∼32.9psu) and the offshore water (33.0∼35.0psu) according to the distribution of salinity from T-S diagram plotted all salinity data observed on winter, spring, summer, and autumn in 2000. 2) the ranges of temperature and salinity were from 4.$3\circ_C$ to 10.1$^{\circ}C$ and from 33.1psu to 34.9psu in winter, from 8.$1\circ_C$ to 13.$7\circ_C$ and from 33.1psu to 34.3psu in spring, from 14.5$^{\circ}C$ to 24.$2\circ_C$ and from 30.5psu to 34.1psu in summer, and from 14.$5\circ_C$ to 18.$6\circ_C$ and from 30.1psu to 34.0psu in autumn, respectively. 3) the distribution of watermass in the fishing ground varied largely each seasons, but a general tendency on the distribution was obtained. That is, in winter and spring the offshore water was distributed most widely and in summer the coastal and mixing water occupied the fishing ground but in autumn the mixing water prevailed. 4) variation of temperature and salinity were appeared between the surface and 20m layer in the sea aduacent to Naro Island. Therefore, in the summer the thermocline were made between surface and 20m layer with vertical gradients of 4.$0\circ_C$/7m.

In Southern Sea of Korea, there are upwelling area where artificial seamount were built and the environment variations (temperature, salinity, nutrient and current) of before and after built seamount were observed between 2002 and 2007. In 2002, before the seamount was built, there had stratification at 20-30m. And in 2007, seamount was built, stratification of the seamount at the front and back of it were changed by 10-40 m and 20-30 m, respectively. To know the reason of this results, we used temperature and salinity using Brunt-Vaisala Frequency and horizontal current using vertical shear and relative vorticity. They showed upwelling was mainly reason that changed the ocean environment.

황해와 동중국해의 해황 변동에 관한 연구는 현장관측을 중심으로 체계적으로 많이 수행되어 왔지만, 인공위성자료를 이용한 황해와 동중국해의 해황 변동 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 이것은 인공위성자료를 통해 얻을 수 있는 관측항목이 표층수온자료에 국한되어 있었기 때문이다. 그러나 SeaWiFS 해색위성과 같은 인공위성자료들을 이용하여 부유물 농도, 엽록소 농도 등이 원활하게 생산되고 있으며 최근 연구결과에 의해 염분과 유향성분 등도 추정 및 추출이 가능케 되었으므로 이들 인공위성자료를 이용한 황해와 동 중국해의 해황 변동에 관한 연구를 수행하게 되었다. 특히 2004 년도는 계절변동에 있어서 이상기후의 해라고 점철되고 있다. 2004년 봄철의 폭설과 일시적인 고온현상, 여름철에는 10 년만의 무더위, 겨울철에는 36년만에 가장 포근한 날씨가 지속되었다. 이러한 이상기후의 발생은 해양과 대기의 상호작용에 의해서 기인했을 것이라고 생각되어 한반도 주변 해역에서 황해와 동중국해의 해황변동이 연안 해역의 해황변동과 어떠한 연관성이 존재하고, 이러한 요인들은 2004년도에 발생한 이상기후와 어떤 상관관계를 갖는지 연구하기 위한 기초연구를 진행하였다. 2003년 12월 - 2004년 2월과 2004년 12월 - 2005년 2월에 동일한 시기에 관측된 NOAA 표층수온 분포 영상 자료들을 황해와 동중국해 해역을 중심으로 월별로 비교해보면 2003년 12월 2004년 1월에 관측된 표층수온 분포값보다 2004녀 12월 - 2005년 1월에 관측된 표층수온 분포값이 상대적으로 높은 분포 특성을 나타내고 있었다. 이와 같은 현상은 국립수산과학원의 2004년 10월과 12월의 정선관측자료에서도 나타나고 있었다. 그러나 이와는 반대로 2004년 2월에 관측된 표층수온 분포값보다 2005년 2월에 관측된 표층수온 분포값이 상대적으로 낮은 분포 특성을 나타내고 있었다. 따라서 인공위성자료를 이용한 황해의 2004년 해황 분석 결과는 이상수온 상승의 원인이 쿠로시오 해류의 변동과 관련성이 높다고 판단되며 이에 대한 지속적인 연구가 현재 진행중에 있다.

Heavy metals in the surface seawaters and sediments were measured in Jinhae Bay. The high concentrations of heavy metals in the seawaters were found at the stations near the islands. In the sea waters, the mean concentrations of dissolved heavy metals except for Pb were not higher than previous data in this bay. Higher heavy metal contents in the surface sediments were observed at the stations adjacent to the Kojedo or Kadukdo of the Kadoksudo. The contents of Co, Ni, Zn, Cu, As and Cd in the surface sediments showed relatively high correlation coefficients with IL and COD. The order of enrichment factors(EFs) of heavy metals in the sediments was As>Cd>Pb>Zn>Co>Cu>Hg>Ni, and the EFs of As, Cd, Pb and Zn were higher than 1.

Using the data observed on the Oshoro-maru from November 4 to November 12, 1989 in the East China Sea, the oceanographic conditions were investigated. The results are as follows: The oceanographic condition of surface layer was divided into two regions. One was the Tsushima Current Waters and the other was the China Coastal Waters. The oceanic front was formed between above two waters. Tsushima Current Waters had high temperature ranging 22~24$^{\circ}C$, high salinity ranging 33.5~34.5$\textperthousand$ and low D.O less than 4.5ml/l. And China Coastal Waters had low temperature ranging 18~2$0^{\circ}C$, low salinity less than 23.0$\textperthousand$ and high D.O ranging 4.0~5.0ml/l. In the case of the bottom layer, Tsushima Current Waters and China Coastal Waters appeared the same as the surface layer. In addition, the Yellow Sea Bottom Cold Waters and the Southern Bottom Waters of East China Sea distributed together with two surface waters above. The was temperature ranging 15~19$^{\circ}C$, salinity 34.5$\textperthousand$ and low D.O ranging 2.0~3.5ml/l and that was temperature less than 1$0^{\circ}C$, salinity less than 33.3$\textperthousand$ and high D,O greater than 4.5ml/l. The waters of intermediate characteristics between China Coastal Waters and Tsushima Current Waters seem to be resulted from the mixing occurred between the above tow waters, and it had temperature of 20.5~22.$0^{\circ}C$, salinity of 32.3~33.3$\textperthousand$.

In this study, field measurements were conducted in the section about 7 km from sea dike to westward. The observations of along channel current were carried out, and water temperature and salinity were measured simultaneously at 10 stations during one tidal cycle, and sampling interval is 1 hour. The maximum ebb current is about 1.5 m/s at the surface layer but flood current is 0.4 m/s at the bottom layer during discharge period. Residual current during river discharge shows two layer structures which is typical characteristic of the estuary system. On the other hand, residual current during a period with no discharge has shown multi-layer structure different from general estuarine systems. The distribution of high salinity can be seen at the bottom layer as the effect of discharge does not reach down to the bottom layer during discharge. As a result, freshwater is not effected at the bottom layer during observation, and mixing of surface layer to bottom layer is reduced by stratification.
