Diffusion processes in tidal swinging coastal waters are studied by releasing one hundred liters of Rhodamine B four times. Dye patches were formed from instantaneous point sources. The patches were sampled with a pump on a tracking boat, and samples were analyzed with fluorospectro-photometer. The patterns of patches were reconstructed and their characteristics were analyzed in terms of variance of concentration, area estimation, and decrease rate of peak concentration. In all of the four experiments, the dye patches were mos시 elongated to the direction of current axis. the elongation rate was 0.34 on the average. Apparent diffusivities were 620 to 3,000 cm super(2) /sec during initial period of 90 minutes. The variance increased by exp(0.047t) on the average, and peak concentration deceased by exp(-0.044t) on the average.

This study applies 3-D N-S solver based on PBM (Porous Body Model), LED-WASS-3D ver 2.0 to directly analyze non-linear interaction of seawater-freshwater-coastal aquifer in order to simulate the seawater infiltration into coastal aquifer. This numerical simulation is the first trial in Korea, as well as unusual and new numerical analysis abroad. Firstly, to validate the applied numerical model, the validity and effectiveness was verified for the numerical model by comparing and considering it with the result of laboratory experiment for seawater-freshwater interface in coastal aquifer. And then it simulated the seawater infiltration into coastal aquifer considering the changed levels of seawater and groundwater in order to analyze the distribution characteristics of flow field and seawater-freshwater interface of coastal aquifer as the level difference between seawater and groundwater and rate of seawater level (${\Delta}h/h$) increased. In addition, the characteristics of seawater infiltration were analyzed from the vertical salinity in the coastal aquifer by ${\Delta}h/h$, which cannot be obtained from existing non-diffusion numerical models. Finally, it analyzed the effect of ${\Delta}h/h$ on the seawater infiltration distance in coastal aquifer, which was indexed.

In this research, the image obtained by TM platformed in the LANDSAT-5 and the terrestrial infrared image obtained by the Thermo Tracer were employed in order to search the distribution of industrial thermal plume discharged into seas. Sea surface temperature distributions were deduced based on the infrared band 6 in the TM image of the LANDSAT by employing the transformal formula provided by the CSFC of the NASA and post-calibration values. The temperature distributions were also obtained with the processing mode of the TH1100 series from the terrestrial thermal image or the Thermo tracer. According to the results of the image analyses with this methods, it was found that sea surface temperatures in shallow coastal area largely affected by the temperatures of the freshwater and inland and that the range and the area of distribution of the thermal plume can be visualized quantitatively. Furthermore, when the terrestrial thermal infrared scanner is used, the more details of the distribution range can be obtained, and the image results are comparable to those obtained from the LNADSTA.

With varying conditions of concrete surface, induced chloride contents are changed and this is a key parameter for steel corrosion and service life in RC (Reinforced Concrete) structures. Many surface enhancement techniques using impregnation have been developed, however the evaluation techniques for chloride behavior through doubly layered media and time-dependent diffusion are rarely proposed. This paper presents an analysis technique considering double-layer concrete and time-dependent diffusion behavior, and the results are compared with those from the previous test results through reverse analysis. The chloride profiles from the surface-impregnated concrete exposed to atmospheric, tidal, submerged zone for 2 years are adopted. Furthermore surface chloride contents and diffusion coefficients are obtained, and are compared with those from Life365. Through consideration of time effect, the relative error decreases from 0.28 to 0.20 in atmospheric, 0.29 to 0.11 in tidal, and 0.54 to 0.40 in submerged zone, respectively, which shows more reasonable results. Utilizing the diffusion coefficients from Life365, relative errors increases and it needs deeper penetration depth (e) and lower diffusion coefficient ratio ($D_1/D_2$) due to higher diffusion coefficient.

천수만의 수리 역학 및 수질 모델을 위하여 3차원 수리역학 모델(EFDC)과 21개 수질 변수에 대한 수질 모델이 접합된 3차원 수리역학-부영양화 모델(HEM-3D)을 이용하였다. 관측 자료에 대한 모델 검증 결과, 조위는 관측치에 비해 5% 정도, 유속은 10% 정도 작은 값을 보였으며, 지각은 모델 결과치가 고정항에서 늦고 간월도에서 빠르게 나타났다. 수질 항목, 특히 용존산소의 관측치에 나타난 전반적인 분포 양상을 잘 재현하고 있었으며, 항목별 기여도 분석에서는 수질 모델이 퇴적물에 의한 산소 소비에 민감하게 반응하고 있으며, 용존산소 변화에 있어서 퇴적물에 의한 영향이 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 보여주었다. 본 모델 결과는 기존의 모델들과 비교하여 천수만 해역의 해수 유동 특성을 잘 재현하고 있으며, 본 모델과 연계된 수질 모델의 오염물 확산과 수질 항목들의 거동을 이해할 수 있는 정보를 제공하였다. 그럼에도 불구하고 본 연구를 통하여 나타난 문제점은, 수질 예측 모델에 필요한 수질 변수들의 관측 자료와 양식장에 의한 오염 부하량 자료가 충분하지 못하며, 퇴적물에 의한 수질 변화를 정량화할 수 있는 모델의 개발이 시급하다는 것이다. 특히 퇴적물에 의한 산소 요구량은 유기퇴적물이 미생물 등에 의해 분해되는 과정에서 요구되는 산소량으로서, 해수 유동 조건의 변화와 오염부하에 의한 유기퇴적물의 집적이 주된 요인이다. 방조제 건설 이후 해수유동 조건의 변화와 더불어 지속적으로 오염물이 유입되고, 담수 및 천수만의 수질이 점점 악화되고 있다. 따라서 이러한 오염부하와 퇴적물에 대한 관리대책이 시급한 것으로 판단되며, 향후 정확한 수질 예측을 위해서는 본 연구에서 나타난 문제점들에 대한 재고가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Pacific island countries, including Kiribati, are suffering from a shortage of essential resources as well as a reduction in their living space due to sea level rise and coastal erosion from climate change, groundwater pollution and vegetation changes. Global activities to solve these problems are being progressed by the UN's efforts to implement SDGs. Pacific island countries can adapt to climate change by using abundant marine resources. In other words, seawater plants can assist in achieving SDGs #2, #6 and #7 based on SDGs #14 in these Pacific island countries. Under the auspice of Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering (KRISO) established the Sustainable Seawater Utilization Academy (SSUA) in 2016, and its 30 graduates formed the SSUA Kiribati Association in 2017. The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries (MOF) of the Republic of Korea awarded ODA fund to the Association. By taking advantage of seawater resource and related plants, it was able to provide drinking water and vegetables to the local community from 2018 to 2020. Among the various fields of education and practice provided by SSUA, the Association hope to realize hydroponic cultivation and seawater desalination as a self-support project through a pilot project. To this end, more than 140 households are benefiting from 3-stage hydroponics, and a seawater desalination system in connection with solar power generation was installed for operation. The Association grows and supplies vegetable seedlings from the provided seedling cultivation equipment, and is preparing to convert to self-support business from next year. The satisfaction survey shows that Tarawa residents have a high degree of satisfaction with the technical support and its benefits. In the future, it is hoped that SSUA and regional associations will be distributed to neighboring island countries to support their SDGs implementations.

Due to an oil spill accident occurred in Taean coastal zone wide range of coastal waters were polluted. Inaccurate prediction of spilled oil trajectory is known as a cause that has increased the pollution damage in the beginning stage. In this study, a numerical modeling of spilled oil dispersion has been conducted to know which physical factors caused the severe and wide pollution. Especially the simulation is focused on how to model hydrodynamic circulation accurately. The simulation results showed that the hydrodynamic flow is very important in predicting oil fate, specially, in the short-term dispersion of spilled oil.
