We estimated sediment pollution by the analysis of COD and AVS. We also estimated the contents of Cu, Cd, Pb, Zn in sediment of Gwangyang bay, Mokpo inner bay and Shinan Bigum coastal area from 2011 July to 2012 February. In these results of sediment COD and AVS show III level pollution in Mokpo inner bay, however Gwangyang and Shinan Bigum coast show I level pollution. The results of Igeo show over 2 on the contents of Cu and Cd in Gwangyang bay and Mokpo inner bay. It also know that Igeo can more and detail estimate sediment pollution in industrial coastal area. These results show that it is suitable to estimated sediment pollution by COD and AVS with trace metal in industrial and initial polluted coastal area rather than analysis of COD and AVS only in coastal area.

This study simulate three-dimensional ocean circulation patterns using the EFDC model in the Kwangyang Bay and Jinju Bay, considering tide, water temperature and salinity. The numerical model results were verified using observed data. The model results well reproduced the observed data. As a result, ocean circulation patterns in the study area show convergence and divergence in the middle area of Noryang waterway and Daebang waterway, the residual flow patterns show typical two-layer circulation. According to the change of the density stratification in the Kwangyang Bay and Jinju Bay, the effect of fresh water is dominant in study area. In the case of Jinju Bay, although it is strongly influenced by the Namgang fresh water, also it is affected by Seomjin River when there is no discharge by Namgang Dam. On the other hand, the stratification of the Kwangyang Bay is relatively enhanced by the discharge of Namgang Dam.

EFDC model was applied to reproduce velocity fields and to evaluate the dispersion characteristics of suspended sediments (SS) around a Daesan port. Numerical results using two-dimensional hydrodynamic model of EFDC showed good agreements through comparison with the time series and harmonic analysis of the tidal elevations. The dispersion patterns of the suspended sediments using the calculated velocity fields were calculated to move from east to northeast direction in flood tide and from west to southwest in ebb tide for dredging of sea route, respectively. Also, the suspended sediments were widely dispersed into the front areas of a Daesan port, Nanji-do and Garorim bay in the long-term. Therefore, it was inferred that the environmental problems for sea pollution would be occurred seriously if the dredging for sea route would be continued in the long-term.

The objective of this paper is to explore the short-term variability of sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll a (Chl-a) derived from satellite in the upwelling region of the southeast coast of Korea in summer. We particularly emphasize the spatial variability of SST and Chl-a in the East Korean Warm Current (EKWC) during summer monsoon. Spatial distribution of SST and Chl-a in the EKWC are described using SeaWiFS and AVHRR images in August, 2007. Spatial distribution of SST and Chl-a around EKWC can be classified into four categories in the profile of SST and Chl-a images: (1) coastal cold water region, (2) cold water region of thermal front, (3) warm water region, (4) cold water of offshore region.

항로표지의 효율적인 설치를 위하여 항로표지 배치 대상 해역에 대한 사전 조사가 필요하며, 항로, 배후지역, 배후광 등을 고려하여 설치된 항로표지의 적절성을 검토하게 된다. 이러한 과정에서 항로표지 주변 환경을 재현한 항로표지 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 항로표지 배치를 위한 의사결정을 지원할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 항로표지 시뮬레이터의 중요한 요소인 해역DB의 주간 모델과 야간 모델 구축시 고려될 요소를 고찰하고 항로표지 시뮬레이터용 해역 DB 구축을 위한 최적 방안을 도출하였다.

금회 연구대상지인 진도 해역은 WQI지수 II, III등급 해역으로, 비교적 양호한 수질상태를 유지하고 있다. 최근 대명리조트는 이곳에 대규모 휴양시설을 계획 중에 있으며, 이에 따른 오수의 해양방류는 불가피할 것으로 보인다. 따라서, 오수의 해양방류로 인하여 대상해역의 오염이 우려됨에 따라 최적의 배수시설을 건설하여 수질악화를 방지하고자 한다. 배수시설에 따른 수질영향 예측을 수행하기 위하여 Delft3D-WAQ 모듈을 이용하여 당 해역의 수질특성을 재현 및 예측하였다. 또한, 상기 모델에 의한 모의결과의 정확도를 확인하고 보완하기 위하여 수직 와확산계수의 민감도 분석을 수행하였으며, 이를 통해 신뢰도를 확보하였다. 배수시설의 방류구 이격 거리 및 수층별 방류에 따른 수질변화를 검토한 결과, 해안에서의 이격거리가 멀고 중층에 방류할 경우 가장 효과적인 희석률을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.

우리나라 연안해역에 급증하는 해상풍력단지 등 대규모 해양개발 행위로 인해 무분별한 해역을 점용하게 됨에 따라, 과거 관습적으로 이용해오는 해상교통로와 상충되어 발생하는 사회적 충돌이 문제가 되고 있다. 특히, 선박 대형화 및 자동화, 자율운항선박 등장 등 해상교통환경 변화에 따라 안전한 연안 해상교통환경 조성이 시급한 상황이다. 모든 연안해역의 해상교통 흐름 및 교통밀집도 분석에 따른 관습적 해상교통망을 식별하고, 이를 지정·구축하고자, 빅데이터 및 지리정보시스템(GIS) 기반 해양공간분석기법을 활용하여 검토 및 분석하였다. 이렇게 분석 및 식별된 결과는 DB화하여 디지털 GIS 관리시스템과 연계하도록 추진중이다.

해양사고는 해양 환경과 인적 요소의 상호작용에서 발생하는 심각한 문제 중 하나로, 이를 예방하고 관리하기 위한 정책이 필수적이다. 하지만, 이 중 해상교통 환경에 대해서는 지금까지 항만 및 입·출항로 등 제한된 해역에 한정하여 관리되어 온 관계로 전체 연근해 해역에 대한 관리는 상대적으로 미흡하였다. 따라서 증가하는 해역 이용 수요에 대비한 선박 및 선원 중심의 안전 정책을 교통환경 관리강화를 통한 공간 중심으로 전환할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 해역이용자 및 관련 전문가를 대상으로 교통환경 관리 항목 도출을 위한 설문조사를 시행하고 AHP 기법을 활용하여 이를 분석하였다.

The absolute clay mineral compositions and regional distribution of the 131 bulk marine surface sediments around the Jeju Island was compared to their relative compositions and distribution using quantitative X-ray diffraction analysis. Average absolute clay mineral composition is illite 15.3% (0.5~40.5%), chlorite 2.6% (0~7.9%), and kaolinite 1% (0~5.6%). Total contents of the clay minerals are very high in the South Sea of Korea, northwestern part and southern offshore of Jeju Island. The average relative composition is illite 70.9% (16.7~89%), chlorite 21.5% (8.4~68.5%), and kaolinite 7.6% (0~29.3%). Relative illite contents are high in the northwestern and southeastern part of study area, and southern part of Jeju Island. Chlorite contents are high in the eastern part of study area and western part of Jeju Island. Kaolinite contents are high in the western and southern part of Jeju Island, and southern offshore of Jeju Isand. Absolute Distribution patterns are very similar to those of fine-grained (from clay to silt) sediment, whereas relative distribution patterns do not show any relationship with those of fine-grained sediment.

The review of statements and coastal development characteristics in South Korea were diagnosed by the consultation on the coastal area utilization in Korea. The occupation and the use of public water were dominated by installation of coastal structure and seawater supply and drainage whereas the reclamation areas were predominantly utilized for developing industrial complex, harbor, fishing port and road. The occupation and the use were dominant in western coast, but reclamation was dominant in southern coast of Korea. The number of utilization cases was particularly greater in Jeonnam, Gyeongnam, and Gyeonggi Province including Incheon. The number of the statements reviews increased by more than 200 cases in 2008 compared with 2007, and most of them were the simple statements. The statements related to ocean disposal of dredged sediment, reclamation, dredging sediment, seawater supply and drainage, and marine sand mining were submitted for review. Coastal utilization was especially active in the regions of seawater quality criteria I and II. In particular, special management sea areas designated under the relevant marine regulations were utilized mostly by reclamation for developing harbor, fishing port and coastal structure. Development activities in national parks comprised primarily structure installation and coastal maintenance. In the fisheries resources protection areas, 40% of the total cases accounted for coastal maintenance, 31% for structure installation, and 16% for seawater supply and drainage. In addition, alternative plans for the improvement in policies and system of marine environmental impact assessment were suggested to enhance the function and confidence of the consultation on the coastal area utilization in Korea.
