In order to investigate the effects of intertidal sediments on the nutrient cycle in coastal environments, the benthic fluxes of ammonium, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, and silicate at two stations on the intertidal flat of Keunso Bay were determined during each season. The efflux of ammonium was observed at S1 and resulted from the diffusion of remineralized ammonium and acceleration caused by the bioirrigation of macrofauna. The influx of ammonium at S2 was probably due to nitrification in the water column. The influx of nitrate was observed at both stations during all seasons, indicating that the nitrate in the pore water was removed by denitrification. Vigorous bioirrigation led to the efflux of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) at S1, whereas the influx of DIN at S2 was predominantly caused by denitrification. Contrary to the diffusive and bio-irrigated release of remineralized phosphate from the sediment at S1, the influx of phosphate was observed at S2, which may be attributable to adsorption onto iron oxides in the aerobic sediment layer. Silicate, which is produced by the dissolution of siliceous material, was mostly released from the sediment by molecular diffusion and bioirrigation. However, the influx of silicate was observed at S2 during spring and winter, which was ascribed to adsorption by particulate matter or assimilation by benthic microphytes. The annual fluxes of DIN were 328 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S1 and -435 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S2. The annual fluxes of phosphate were negative at both sites (-2.8 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S1 and -28.9 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S2), whereas the annual fluxes of silicate were positive at both sites (843 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S1 and 243 mmol $m^{-2}yr^{-1}$ at S2).

The purpose of the present study is to develope the estimation scheme for sensible heat flux by semi-empirical approach using routine meteorological data such as solar radiation and air temperature. To compare observed sensible heat flux with estimated sensible heat flux, the sensible heat fluxes were measured by three dimensional sonic anemometer-thermometer. The field observation was performed during 1 year from December 1, 1995 to November 30, 1996 on a rice paddy field in Chunchon basin. The heat fluxes were measured at a heights of 5m and mean meteorological variables were obtained at two levels, 2.5m(or 1.5m) and 10m. Since condition of rice paddy field such as, wetness of the field, roughness length, vary widely, we devided annual data to 5 periods. Comparing with two sensible heat fluxes, the results showed that the correlation coefficients were more than 0.86. Thus, we can conclude that the estimation method of sensible heat fluxes using routine meteorological data is practical and reliable enough.

Wet deposition fluxes of ions at a coastal site in southwestern Japan in the period 1996-2003 were investigated to quantify the respective contributions of cyclone-, stationary front- and typhoon-associated rains. On average, the deposition fluxes of terrigenous-origin ions, nss-$SO_4{^{2-}}$, $NO_3{^-}$, $NH_4{^+}$ and nss-$Ca^{2+}$ were $37.6{\pm}7.3$, $16.3{\pm}4.2$, $19.0{\pm}3.4$ and $9.6{\pm}4.8meq\;m^{-2}yr^{-1}$, and those of $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$, the major ions in sea water, were $97.0{\pm}38.2$ and $115.2{\pm}48.2meq\;m^{-2}yr^{-1}$, respectively. Cyclone-associated rain constituted more than 50% of the fluxes of the terrigenous ions in almost all years. Stationary front-associated rain also contributed significantly, although the contribution was lower than the contribution by Cyclone-associated rain in almost all years. In particular, the wet deposition flux of nitrogen compounds of $NO_3{^-}$ and $NH_4{^+}$, which are important nutrients for micro-bioactivities in sea surface water, was dominated by cyclone-associated rain. Due to the extreme abundance of $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ in the rainwater of typhoons, the fluxes of $Na^+$ and $Cl^-$ were contributed substantially by typhoons in years with typhoons' passage although cyclones were still the largest contributor to the fluxes. These results indicate the dominance of cyclones in the wet deposition to the East China Sea areas and the necessity to take rain types into account for a more accurate elucidation of the temporal and spatial variation of the wet deposition.

Eight different data sets are examined in order to gain insight into the surface heat flux traits of the East Asian marginal seas. In the case of solar radiation of the East Sea (Japan Sea), Coordinated Ocean-ice Reference Experiments ver. 2 (CORE2) and the Objectively Analyzed Air-Sea Fluxes (OAFlux) are similar to the observed data at meteorological stations. A combination is sought by averaging these as well as the Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) and the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP)-1 data to acquire more accurate surface heat flux for the East Asian marginal seas. According to the Combination Data, the annual averages of net heat flux of the East Sea, Yellow Sea, and East China Sea are -61.84, -22.42, and $-97.54Wm^{-2}$, respectively. The Kuroshio area to the south of Japan and the southern East Sea were found to have the largest upward annual mean net heat flux during winter, at -460- -300 and at $-370--300Wm^{-2}$, respectively. The long-term fluctuation (1984-2004) of the net heat flux shows a trend of increasing transport of heat from the ocean into the atmosphere throughout the study area.

Estimations of dry and wet depositions in Korea and the size distributions of yellow sand above Korea have been carried out using the Eulerian aerosol model with the simulated meteorological data from the SNU mesoscale meteorological model. The estimated particle size distribution in Korea shows a bimodal distribution with peak values at 0.6 pm and 7 pm and a minimum at 2 pm in the lower layer However, as higher up, the bimodal distribution becomes an unimodal distribution with a peak value at 4∼5mm. Among the total amount of yellow sand deflated in the source regions , the dry and wet deposition fluxes were about 92%, and about 1.3∼0.5%, repectively, and the rest(5∼6%) is suspended in the air, Most of dust lifted in the air during the clear weather is deposited in the vicinity of the source regions by dry deposition and the rest undergoes the long -range transport with a gradual removal by the wet deposition processes. Over Korean peninsula, the total amount of yellow sand suspended in the air was about 6∼8% of the emissions in the source region and the dry and wet deposition fluxes were about 0.005∼0.7% and 0.003∼0.051% of the total emitted amount, repectively. It is estimated that 2.7∼8.9 mesa-tons of yellow sand is transported annually over the Korean peninsula with the annual mean dry deposition of 2.1∼490 kilo-tons and the annual mean wet deposition of 1.5∼65 kilo-tons.

황해 남동부 해역에 설치한 해양부이(YSROB)에서 약 27개월간 관측된 장파, 단파 복사량을 포함한 대기, 해양 변수와 COARE 3.0 알고리즘을 이용하여 월평균 해양-대기간 열속을 산출하고 기존 연구결과와 비교하였다. YSROB 위치에서 열속은 순 단파복사(Qi)에 의해 해양은 대기로부터 열을 얻고 순 장파복사($Q_b$), 현열($Q_h$), 잠열($Q_e$)에 의해서 열손실이 일어난다. 전체 열손실 중 $Q_e$에 의한 손실이 51%로 가장 크게 나타났으며 $Q_b$와 $Q_h$에 의한 손실은 각각 34%, 15% 이다. 순열속($Q_n$)은 $Q_i$가 최대인 5월에 최대($191.4W/m^2$)이며 모든 열속 성분이 최소인 12월에 최소($-264.9W/m^2$)이다. 연평균 $Q_n$은 $1.9W/m^2$ 이지만 관측기기의 정확도에 의한 오차산정 결과(최대 ${\pm}19.7W/m^2$)를 고려하면 무시할 정도로 작다. YSROB과 동일한 위치에서의 기존 월별 열속 산출 결과는 YSROB에서 실측값에 기반한 열속에 비해 여름철 $Q_i$가 약 $10{\sim}40W/m^2$ 과소 평가된 반면에 겨울철에는 $Q_e$와 $Q_h$에 의한 열 손실이 각각 약 $50W/m^2$, $30{\sim}70W/m^2$ 과다하게 산출되었다. 이로 인하여 해양이 열을 얻는 4월~8월에는 기존 연구에서의 열 획득량이 본 연구 결과보다 적게 나타나며, 해양이 열을 잃는 겨울철에는 기존 연구에서의 해양으로부터의 열 손실이 본 연구 결과에 비해 크게 나타난다. 특히, 12월과 1월의 $Q_n$ 차이는 약 $70{\sim}130W/m^2$에 달한다. 장기적인 재분석장(MERRA) 분석 결과에 의하면 이와 같은 월평균 열속의 차이는 연변동 등 시간 변동에 의한 것이 아니라 열속 산출 시 사용된 자료의 부정확성에 기인하는 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구 결과로부터 기존의 기후적인 열속을 연구에 활용하거나 수치모델에 사용함에 있어 주의가 요망된다.

The energy balance of the surface layer of the water (the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and the East Sea) was examined using satellite data. Variations of the net heat flux were similar to those of the latent heat flux which was more intensive than the sensible heat flux. The sensible heat flux was affected the difference between the sea surface temperature and the air temperature and was less important over the Yellow Sea. The maximum of the latent heat flux occurred in autumn when the air is drier and the wind is stronger. The shortwave radiation flux decreased with the latitude and depended on the cloudiness as the longwave radiation flux does. Annual variations of heat fluxes show that the latent heat flux was more intensive over the East China Sea than the East Sea and the Yellow Sea, while the spatial differences of the other heat fluxes were weak.

A closed chamber system was used for measuring $N_2$0 fluxes from an agriculturally managed upland soil in Kunsan during the growing season from May to July 2002. It is known that soil is one dominant source of atmospheric $N_2$O, contributing to about 57% (9 Tg y $^{-1}$ ) of the total annual global emission. Hence, its increasing emissions and concentrations are largely associated with agricultural activities. In order to elucidate characteristics of soil nitrogen emissions from intensively managed agricultural soils and to understand the roles of soil parameters (soil moisture, soil pH, soil temperature, and soil nitrogen) in the gas emission, $N_2$O soil emissions were measured at every hour during the experimental period (21 days). Soil $N_2$O fluxes were calculated based on changes of $N_2$O concentrations measured inside a closed chamber at every hour. The analysis of $N_2$O was made by using a Gas Chromatography (equipped with Electron Capture Detector). Soil parameters at sampling plots were also analyzed. Monthly averaged $N_2$O fluxes during May, June, and July were 0.14, 0.05, and 0.13 mg-$N_2$O m$^{-2}$ h$^{-1}$ , respectively. Soil temperature and soil pH did not significantly vary over the experimental period; soil temperatures ranged from 12∼$25^{\circ}C$, and soil pH ranged 4.56∼4.75. However, soil moisture varied significantly from 32% to 56% in WFPS. Relationships between soil parameters and $N_2$O fluxes exhibited positive linear relationships. Strong positive correlation ($R^2$ = 0.57, P< 0.0001) was found between $N_2$O flux and sil moisture. It suggests that soil moisture has affected strongly soil $N_2$O emissions during the experimental periods, while other parameters have remained relatively at constant levels. $N_2$O flux from agricultural soils was significant and should be taken account for the national emission inventory.

The dry deposition velocities and fluxes of air pollutants such as SO2(g), O3(g), HNO3(g), sub-micron particulates, NO3(s), and SO42-(s) were estimated according to local meteorological elements in the atmospheric boundary layer. The model used for these calculations was the multiple layer resistance model developed by Hicks et al.1). The meteorological data were recorded on an hourly basis from July, 1990 to June, 1991 at the Austin Cary forest site, near Gainesville FL. Weekly integrated samples of ambient dry deposition species were collected at the site using triple-fiter packs. For the study period, the annual average dry deposition velocities at this site were estimated as 0.87$\pm$0.07 cm/s for SO2(g), 0.65$\pm$0.11 cm/s for O3(g), 1.20$\pm$0.14cm/s for HNO3(g), 0.0045$\pm$0.0006 cm/s for sub-micron particulates, and 0.089$\pm$0.014 cm/s for NO3-(s) and SO42-(s). The trends observed in the daily mean deposition velocities were largely seasonal, indicated by larger deposition velocities for the summer season and smaller deposition velocities for the winter season. The monthly and weekly averaged values for the deposition velocities did not show large differences over the year yet did show a tendency of increased deposition velocities in the summer and decreased values in the winter. The annual mean concentrations of the air pollutants obtained by the triple filter pack every 7 days were 3.63$\pm$1.92 $\mu\textrm{g}$/m3 for SO42-, 2.00$\pm$1.22 $\mu\textrm{g}$/m-3 for SO2, 1.30$\pm$0.59 $\mu\textrm{g}$/m-3 for HNO3, and 0.704$\pm$0.419 $\mu\textrm{g}$/m3 for NO3-, respectively. The air pollutant with the largest deposition flux was SO2 followed by HNO3, SO42-(S), and NO3-(S) in order of their magnitude. The sulfur dioxide and NO3- deposition fluxes were higher in the winter than in the summer, and the nitric acid and sulfate deposition fluxes were high during the spring and summer.

동해에서의 해양-대기 열교환량을 1961년부터 1990년까지의 선상관측자료와 1976 년부터 1985년까지의 일본기상처 부표자료를 이용하여 구하였다. 그리고 이 결과와 해 양상층부 200m 내의 열용량의 계절변화로부터 해양내부의 열유동량을 계산하였다. 겨 울에는 유입되는 단과복사량과 방출되는 장파오복사량의 크기가 비슷해 복사에 의한 열방출량은 적지만 열속과 자멸속이 강하여 전 해역에서 대기로 많은 열량을 방출한 다. 유효열방출량의 공간적인 변화폭은 100 Wm/SUP -2/이상이며, 최대의 열방출량은 쓰가루해협 부근에서 일어나고 대한해협과 울릉분지역등 남부역이 높은 방출량이 나타 난다. 특히 남서 해역의 강한 열방출이 겨울에 동해 중층균실수의 형성에 영향을 주는 것으로 보인다. 여름에는 강한 태양복사와 낮은 난류속의 영향으로 전해역에서 120~ 140 Wm/SUP -2/의 비슷한 크기로 해양이 가열된다. 해양내부의 열유동은 일본연안에서 양의 값을 나타내 여름의 강한 대마난류에 의한 열량의 유입을 보이며, 그 크기는 해 면을 통해 흡수한 열량보다 커서 여름에는 대마난류에 의한 열유입이 중요함을 보여준 다. 한국연안에서는 음의 값으로 수온이 낮은 북한 한류계수의 남하를 나타낸다. 봄과 가을은 3월과 100월에 각각 최소, 최대를 나타낸다. 유효열교환량의 연변화폭은 남서 해역의 경우 약 580 Wm/SUP -2/이다. 해표면을 통한 연평균 유효열교환량은 모든 해역 에서 음의 값으로 대기중으로 열량을 방출하며, 그 크기는 쓰가루해협부근에서 -130 Wm/SUP -2/로 강하고 대한해협과 울릉분지역에서도 이웃하는 해역보다 많은 열량을 방 출한다. 위도 35$^{\circ}$~39$^{\circ}$N 사이에서의 공간적인 연평균값의 크기는 단파복사량, 자멸 속, 장파복사, 열속의 크기로 각각 129, -90, -58, -32Wm/SUP -2/으로 유효열교환량은 -51W/SUP -2이다.
