The Yellow Sea Cold Water (YSCW) is formed by cold and dry wind in the previous winter, and is known to spread southward along the central trough of the Yellow Sea in summer. Water characteristics of the YSCW and its movement in the northern East China Sea (ECS) are investigated by analyzing CTD (conductivity-Temperature-Depth) data collected from summertime hydrographic surveys between 2003 and 2009. By water mass analysis, we newly define the North Western Cold Water (NWCW) as a cold water mass observed in the study area. It is characterized by temperature below $13.2^{\circ}C$, salinity of 32.6~33.7 psu, and density (${\sigma}_t$) of 24.7~25.5. The NWCW appears to flow southward at about a speed less than 2 cm/s according to the geostrophic calculation. The newly defined NWCW shows an interannual variation in the range of temperature and occupied area, which is in close relation with the sea surface temperature (SST) over the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea in the previous winter season. The winter SST is determined by winter air temperature, which shows a high correlation with the winter-mean Arctic Oscillation (AO) index. The negative winter-mean AO causes the low winter SST over the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea, resulting in the summertime expansion and lower temperature of the NWCW in the study area. This study shows a dynamic relation among the winter-mean AO index, SST, and NWCW, which helps to predict the movement of NWCW in the northern ECS in summer.

A simple three-dimensional cubic model is applied to the formation of the Yellow Sea Cold Water Mass in Summer. We studied how the tidal mixing and the Kuroshio Water Mass affect the formation of the Yellow Sea cold Water. The tidal mixing effect is parameterized into the vertical diffusion coefficient because of the technical difficulties in the numerical model In this study, the thermal front along the coast could be formed only by the tidal mixing effect. However, the southern front of the Yellow Sea Cold Water Mass has to consider the warm Kuroshio water. the resultant shows the opposite temperature distribution in upper layer and lower layer. the center of the model is warmer in the upper layer and colder in the lower layer than the coast. The resultant circulation pattern is also reverse, clockwise circulation in the upper layer and counter-clockwise circulation in the lower layer.

우리나라 남해 서부 해역에 위치한 진도군 해역은 동부는 남해, 남부는 제주해협과 인접한 다도해로서 그 수심은 50m내의로 말은 천해역을 이루고 있다. 이 해역은 황해저층냉수, 황해난류수, 한국 남ㆍ서 연안수, 양자강 희석수 등 계절에 따라 이들 수계의 영향을 받고 있어 이들 수계간에 형성되는 조경역의 변동이 어장 형성에 영향을 미치는 한편, 부어류의 호어장을 형성한다(Gong and Cho, 1972). 또한 년도별 계절별 해황의 변동과 황해저층냉수의 소장에 따라 갈치, 삼치, 병어 등 주요 수산자원의 풍흉에 영향을 미치는 해양 환경적 특성을 지니고 있다.

The abnormal low water temperature phenomenon of the Yellow Sea Bottom Cold Water in summer, 1981 is studied on the basis of the oceanographical data collected by the National Fisheries University of Pusan in July, 1981 and Fisheries Research and Development Agency of Korea from 1960 to 1981 and meteorological data within the same 22 years. In winter, 1980 the northwesterly monsoon was vary predominant and the air temperature was lower than that of mean year by 1∼8$^{\circ}C$ and also the surface temperature was lower 1∼3$^{\circ}C$. And then the temperature of the Yellow Sea Bottom Cold Water in summer, 1981 became lower 2∼3$^{\circ}C$ than that of mean year and the influence of this cold water was extended to about 50 miles off the coast of Cheju Island. Comparing with mean year, the water temperature at 30m depth in February, 1981 was lower by 1∼2$^{\circ}C$ in entire regions except near sea of Sohuksando and at 50m depth in August, 1981, it was lower by about 3.5$^{\circ}C$. Particularly, the offshore of Hongdo shower value of 5$^{\circ}C$ than that of mean year. It was found that the abnormal low water temperature phenomenon of Yellow Sea Bottom Cold Water in summer, 1981 resulted from the sea surface cooling by the predominant northwestly monsoon and abnormally low air temperature in winter, 1980.

한국 남해는 대부분 100m 이천의 대륙붕으로 되어 있고, 쓰시마 난류수, 황해 난류수, 한국 남해안 연안수 및 황해 저층 냉수 등이 분포한다. 이러한 수괴들 사이에는 뚜렷한 전선이 형성되고 있다(조와 박, 1990). 해양에서 성층은 여름철에 태양복사로 인한 부력의 공급과 담수의 유입으로 형성된다.(중략)

황해의 남동부에 위치한 한국 남서 연안해역은 남해와 인접한 해역으로 황해저층냉수, 황해난류수, 연안수, 양자강 희석수가 영향을 미치고 있으며, 이들 수계간에 형성되는 수온전선역은 좋은 어장을 형성한다. 또한 이 해역은 주요 수산자원의 어장 및 회유환경 그리고 해조류양식 등과 관련하여 해양학적ㆍ수산학적으로 매우 중요한 해역이다. 조석전선이 해양의 1차 생산자인 식물플랑크톤의 분포 및 성장에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 밝혀지고 있다(Bowman and Esaias, 1977). (중략)

한국해역 종합 해양자원도 작성연구(남해)의 일환으로 저서생물 분포 연구를 위한 조사가 1990년 7월과 8월에 남해에 위치한 83개 조사정점에서 수행되었다. 각 정점에서 van Veen그랩으로 3회씩 채집된 저서 생물 표본 가운데 연체동물만을 선별 그들의 분포 양상을 파악하고자 종 동정과 함께 군집구조 분석을 하였다. 조사에서 채집된 연체동물은 모두 679개로 다섯개 강에 102종으로 동정되었으며, 이매패류가 출현종수(84.3%)에서나 출현개체수(92.3%)에 있어서 절대우점하였다. 전체 연체동물군집에서 우점하는 일곱 종(이매패류 여섯 종, 무판류 한 종)이 전체 출현개체수의 61.0%를 차지하였다. 남해의 연체동물은 종은 다양한 반면에 서식밀도나 생물량은 매우 빈약하였다. 출현종의 서식 유무에 따른 유사도로써 집괴분석한 결과 다섯개의 조사정점군으로 나누어지고, 이 들은 특징적인 분포 특성을 갖는 두 정점군과 혼합된 특성을 나타내는 세정점군으로 대별되었다. 전자의 두 정점군은 Raetellops Pulchella와 Periploma otohimeae로 대표되는 황해의 저층냉수의 영향을 받는 세립퇴적물 군집과 뚜렷한 대표종은 없지만 대마난류의 영향을 받는 이질성의 조립퇴넉물 군집으로 정의할 수 있었다. 대마난류의 영향을 받는 정점군의 군집은 황해저층냉수의 정점군에 비해 종 다양도는 높지만, 서식생물량은 현저히 적었다. 아울러 연체동물의 분포와 남해의 퇴적환경이나 수괴의 조성과 변화를 고려하여 남해에 서식하는 저서생물 군집에 있어서 네 개의 분포구역이 있을 것으로 추정하여 그 범위와 경계를 제안한다.

In this paper, the most important oceangraphic phenomena of the summer season in the East China Sea are reviewed. The hydrographic conditions in the suface layer above the seasonal thermocline are under great influence from solar heating, fresh water runoff mainly from the Yangtze River, and summer wind fields. In the lower layer below the thermocline, several distinct water masses e.g. the Kuroshio surface water, the Western North Pacific Central Water and the Yellow Sea Bottom Cold Water are intruded in response to the adjustment of the field of mass to the various dynamical processes. The frontal mixing between the intruded Yellow Sea Bottom Cold. Water and the Western North Pacific Central Water takes place in the bottom layer over the continental shelf south off Cheju Is. This mixed water probably has mush influence on the water properties of the intermediate and bottom layer around Cheju Is. and the south coast of Korea.

The combined hydroacoustic and demersal trawl surveys to investigate the distribution characteristics of fish schools in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea were carried out during the spring of 1997 by the training ship "Nagasaki Maru" of Nagasaki University. Fish samples were collected by bottom trawling from 9 trawl stations randomly selected in the survey area, and the species and length compositions of trawl catches are examined. Hydroacoustic data were collected by using a Furuno FQ-50 scientific echo sounder operating at 50KHz and the data stored in field were later processed in the laboratory. The results obtained can be summarized as follows ：1. In the 9 trawl surveys conducted in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea, 78 species including 80 species of fishes, 4 species of Cephalopoda and 6 species of Crustacea, were identified. The most abundant species in these stations were swimming crab(Portunus trituberculatus), Japanese horse mackere(Trachurus japonicus), redlip croaker(Larimichthys polyactis) and the catch per one hour in each station ranged 7.7 to 182.5 kg/hour. 2. The mean volume backscattering strength for the entire water column and the bottom layer of the 0-10 m from bottom friction were -74.6 ㏈ and -68.2 ㏈, respectively. That is, the mean volume backscattering strength for the bottom layer was 6.4 ㏈ higher than that for the entire water column 3. In the surveys during the spring of 1997, the geographical distribution characteristics of fish schools suggests a trend of decreasing fish abundance toward the coast area of Korea and the highest demersal concentrations appeared in waters between the Cheju Island and the Tsushima Island 4. The distribution density of fish school in the East China Sea and Yellow Sea during the 1997 acoustic survey were estimated to be 6.65$\times$10$^{-5}$ kg/㎥ in the entire water column and 2.86$\times$l0$^{-4}$ kg/㎥ in the bottom layer, respectively.pectively.

제주해협에 접해 있는 한국남해연안역은 대체로 50m미만의 천해로써 제주해협에 비해 계절별로 하계에 저온ㆍ고염분수, 동계에 저온ㆍ저염분수가 출현해 해협내 연중 전선을 형성하는 해역으로서 특히, 한국 남해연안역에 위치해 있는 추자도 주변해역은 지형적 특성상 대마난류수, 한국 남해연안수와 중국대륙연안수, 황해저층냉수 등 이러한 이질수괴들이 시기와 계절별로 서로 상접하여 복잡한 해황을 형성하는 해역이다(Rho, 1985, 최, 1989, 김ㆍ노, 1994, Yoon, 1986, Rhoㆍ평야, 1983). (중략)
