When magnetotelluric (MT) data are obtained in vicinity of the coast, the sea can distort observed MT responses, especially those of deep part of subsurface. We introduce an iterative method to correct the sea effect, based on the previous topographic correction method which removes the distortions due to topographic changes in seafloor MT data. The method first corrects the sea effect in observed MT impedance, and then inverts corrected responses in a model space without the sea. Due to mutual coupling between sea and subsurface structure, the correction and inversion steps are iterated until changes in each result become negligible. The method is validated for 1-D and 2-D structure using synthetic MT data produced by 3-D forward modeling including surrounding seas. In all cases, the method closely recovers the given structure after a few iterations. To test the applicability of the proposed method to field data, we generate synthetic MT data for the Jeju Island whose 1-D conductivity structure is well known, using 3-D forward modeling. The distortions due to the surrounding sea start to appear below the frequency about 1 Hz, and are relatively severe in the electrical field perpendicular to the coastline because of the location of the observation sites. The proposed method successfully eliminates the sea effect after three iterations, and both 1-D and 2-D inversion of corrected responses closely recover the given subsurface structure of the Jeju Island model.

For the simulation of tsunami propagation an active dispersion-correction two-dimensional finite element model has been developed based on a shallow-water wave equation. This model employs an arbitrary triangular mesh and an explicit time integration scheme. However, the physical dispersion effects as included in the Boussinesq equations can be taken into account in the computation. The validity of the dispersion-correction scheme developed in this study is verified through the comparison of numerical solutions calculated using the new scheme with analytical ones considering dispersion effect of waves. As a result, the present model is shown to be considerably accurate.

Wave lengths of tsunamis are shorter than those of tides, and the dispersion effect of tsunamis is relatively strong. Thus, it should be properly considered in the numerical simulation of distant tsunami propagation for better accuracy. In the present study an active dispersion-correction scheme using explicit scheme is developed to take into account the dispersion effect in the simulation of tsunami propagation using one-dimensional finite element method based on wave equation. The validity of the dispersion-correction scheme proposed in this study is confirmed through the comparision of numerical solutions calculated using the present scheme with analytical ones considering dispersion effect of waves.

Two types of one-dimensional dispersion-correction scheme are developed to take into account the dispersion effects for the simulation of tsunami propagation using ADCIRC finite element model based on shallow-water equations The first is an implicit scheme, and the dispersion-correction is accomplished by controlling the weighting factor assigned to each spatial derivative term of different time levels. The other scheme is explicit and the dispersion is considered by adjusting the element size. The validity of the dispersion-correction scheme proposed in this study is confirmed through the comparison of numerical solutions calculated using the new schemes with analytical ones considering dispersion effect of waves.

Jeju Island, a volcanic island located in South Korea, has been one of the main targets of geophysical and/or geological studies because of its tectonic importance related to the volcanism and tectonic link to the southern part of the Korean Peninsula. Recently, as a number of broad-band magnetotelluric (MT) measurements were made, we have examined the deep part of the island. In such an insular setting, it is not easy to properly recover the deep structures such as the lower crust and the upper crust using MT data, because their low-frequency components are strongly affected by the surrounding sea of the island. In this study, we apply the sea-effect correction to the existing MT data collected at a total of 102 sites in Jeju Island. The sea-effect correction makes remarkable changes in the observed MT data at frequencies below 1 Hz, clearly indicating the existence of a conductive lower crust. The 2-D inversion results for both Jeju Southern Line (JSL) and Jeju Northern Line (JNL) show that the transition zone separating the resistive upper crust and conductive lower crust exists at a depth of 20 km on average.

본 연구에서는 국립해양조사원의 '해양2000호'를 통해 1996년과 1997년에 측정한 동해 지역의 중력자료에 대한 자료 처리를 하였다. 효과적인 자료처리를 위해 선상중력자료 처리에 필요한 각종 보정 절차와 문제점 등을 알아보았으며, 선상자료와 해면고도계자료의 비교 및 이를 통한 선상자료의 검증을 실시하였다. 선상중력자료는 측정과 처리 과정에 있어 여러 사항을 고려하여야 한다. 즉, 육상중력기점을 이용한 절대중력으로의 환산 문제, 선박 항해 위치의 부정확성에 기인하는 문제 및 중력계의 기계적 특성과 중력 측정이 이루어질 때의 해상 조건에 의한 영향 등으로 선상중력자료에 나타나는 여러 오차를 최소화하여야 한다. 선상중력자료로부터 각종 지구중력장 연구에 필요한 중력이상을 계산하기 위해 선상중력 측정시 기인되는 각종 요인의 오차를 고려한 효과적인 보정이 이루어져야 한다. 즉, 선상중력계의 기계변이 보정, 탐사선에 대한 위치 자료의 획득 및 필터링, 그리고 탐사선의 이동으로 인한 Eotvos 효과의 정확한 계산 및 보정이 필요하고, 선상중력계의 기계적 특성에 의해 나타나는 시간지연에 대한 보정도 필요하다. 또한 이러한 보정을 통해 계산한 중력 이상에서 각 교점의 오차를 보정하는 교정오차 보정도 실시하여야 한다. 특히, 탐사선의 이동으로 인한 지구자전 각속도의 상대적인 증감의 효과로 나타나는 Eotvos 효과의 영향은 선상중력자료의 정확도에 가장 큰 영향을 미친다. 이의 정확한 계산 및 보정을 위해서는 정확한 위치정보가 필요하며 본 연구에서는 이를 위해 GPS 항해정보에 대한 Kalman 필터를 실시하였고, Eotvos 효과에 대해 Savitzky-Golay 필터를 적용하여 최적의 Eotvos 보정을 시도하였다. 본 연구에서 계산된 동해지역의 중력이상에 대한 대력적인 범위는 경도 129° - 133°이고 위도 35° - 38.3° 부근이다. 이 지역에 대한 고도이상은 최소 -42.46 mGal에서 최고 161.13 mGal사이에 분포하며, 고도이상의 평균은 14.450 mGal이다. 또한 Bouguer 이상은 최소 -l5.09 mGal에서 최고 218.61 mGal이고 이의 평균은 82.681 mGal이다. 그리고 동해지역의 선상중력 측정지역에서 선상자료에 의한 중력이상과 Altimeter 자료에 의한 고도이상의 전반적인 윤곽은 비슷하면서도 일부 작은 이상의 차이가 나타났으며, 지형자료와 비교하여 보면 Altimeter에 의한 결과보다 선상측정에 의한 결과가 더욱 잘 일치하고 있어 본 연구에서 계산한 선상자료의 타당성을 알 수 있다. 고도이상의 차이는 최소 -25.94 mGal에서 최대 85.33 mGal의 차이를 보이며 차이의 평균은 3.517 mGal, RMS는 6.774 meal이다. 이는 비교적 큰 차이로 선상측정자료의 중요성과 필요성을 단적으로 나타내고 있다.

Despite the rapid advancement in image recognition technology, achieving perfect digitization of tabular documents and handwritten documents still challenges. The purpose of this study is to improve the accuracy of digitizing the logbook by correcting errors by utilizing associated rules considered during logbook entries. Through this, it is expected to enhance the accuracy and reliability of data extracted from logbook through OCR programs. This model is to improve the accuracy of digitizing the logbook of the training ship "Saenuri" at the Mokpo Maritime University by correcting errors identified after Optical Character Recognition (OCR) program recognition. The model identified and corrected errors by utilizing associated rules considered during logbook entries. To evaluate the effect of model, the data before and after correction were divided by features, and comparisons were made between the same sailing number and the same feature. Using this model, approximately 10.6% of errors out of the total estimated error rate of about 11.8% were identified, and 56 out of 123 errors were corrected. A limitation of this study is that it only focuses on information from Dist.Run to Stand Course sections of the logbook, which contain navigational information. Future research will aim to correct more information from the logbook, including weather information, to overcome this limitation.

RADARSAT is one of many possible data sources that can play an important role in marine surveillance including ship detection because radar sensors have the two primary advantages: all-weather and day or night imaging. However, atmospheric effects on SAR imaging can not be bypassed and any remote sensing image has various geometric distortions, In this study, radiometric and geometric calibrations for RADARSAT/SAT data are tried using SGX products georeferenced as level 1. Even comparison of the near vs. far range sections of the same images requires such calibration Radiometric calibration is performed by compensating for effects of local illuminated area and incidence angle on the local backscatter, Conversion method of the pixel DNs to beta nought and sigma nought is also investigated. Finally, automatic geometric calibration based on the 4 pixels from the header file is compared to a marine chart. The errors for latitude and longitude directions are 300m and 260m, respectively. It can be concluded that the error extent is acceptable for an application to open sea and can be calibrated using a ground control point.

A Hanbitho, which is a ship to measure maritime transportation system, observes and estimates the maritime transportation system and its signal to be able to receive in our closed sea New GNSS systems are constructed such as GLONASS, GALILEO, QZSS, however, our ships can use SBAS service such as MSAS of Japan. So, it is needed to reconstruct new measuring system to observe and estimate new GNSS and SBAS. In this paper, we propose the upgrade method of Hanbiho measuring system.

Horizontal-axes on the seismic section have been represented in a distance unit by applying horizontal-distance correction transformation on a 2-D seismic section of single channel marine seismic data. By drawing horizontal-axes in a distance unit, distortion of horizontal distances shown on the seismic section when the ship speed varies during a survey can be diminished considerably. Position information obtained by GPS and stored in each trace of seismic data as well as data collection windows were used for horizontal distance correction. The minimum window length was decided by considering ship speed and shot interval, and the maximum window length wat determined by reflecting radius of the 1st Fresnel zone. In choosing an optimum window length, horizontal resolution and stacking effect were considered simultaneously. By applying horizontal distance correction we could get a 2-D seismic section which is considered at reflecting the real subsurface structure analogously.
