To analyze the physical processes of sea-breeze development over a coastal urban area, numerical simulation for seabreeze (SB) and its frontogenesis was examined based on urbanized MM5 (uMM5) with urban canopy parameterization. On 6 August 2006, SB and its front were well developed in Busan under a weak offshore flow. As a result of wind vector, ZVB (Zero Velocity Boundary), potential temperature obtained the uMM5, at 0900 LST, SB advanced below 200 m height in the coastal areas and the internal boundary grew with the urban coastal region. At noon, the height of the SB head with updraft was approximately one and a half times (~600 m) higher than its depth in central urban. Applying the frontogenesis function, the SB structure for frontogenesis and frontolysis were complicated spatially; the dynamic effects of wind (i.e. convergence and tilting term) could play an important role in the growth of SB, especially the convergence effect.

In coastal area of Inchon, dredging and the disposal of dredged material for sea-wall construction and reclamation have increased in recent years. These activities may impact the benthic environment and result in changes in benthic communities, but little information is available on the extent and direction of these changes. We investigated whether there have been changes in the dominant macrobenthic species and benthic community over the last decade, and explored the relationship between environmental variables and spatial patterns of macrobenthic community structure. We sampled macrobenthos and recorded environmental variables in the coastal habitats of Inchon in March and June 2004. In total, 212 macrobenthic species were recorded during this study, predominately crustaceans $(34{\%})$, mollusks $(32{\%})$ and polychaetes $(21{\%})$. The mean density of macrobenthos was $1,393\;ind./m^{2}$.The most abundant species was Amphioplus japonicus $(20.5{\%})$, followed by Heteromastus filiformis $(14.4{\%})$, Theora fragilis $(8.2{\%})$ and Ampharete sp. $(4.0{\%})$. Over the past decade the dominant macrobenthic species in this area shifted. Multivariate analysis (multidimensional scaling) revealed significant differences in community structure among three regions: the middle part of the sampling area (B), site 8 (C) and other sites (A). Mean density varied significantly among the three regions, but no differences in the number of species and diversity (H') were observed. The distribution of the macrobenthic community was affected by environmental variables such as percentage sand content and sediment kurtosis. Species that were important in different areas included A. japonicus in region A, Raeta puchella in region B and T. fragilis in region C. The important species in regions B and C were filter-feeding bivalves, and the abundance of these species may be related to the increase in percentage sand content. We suggest that the sediment composition (percentage sand content) may be an important factor in determining the dominant species and structure of the macrobenthic communities in coastal Inchon. Long-term monitoring programs are necessary to understand ongoing changes in the benthic communities of this area.

The technology of small and medium sized shipbuilding companies is lower relatively to major shipbuilding companies, and should be up-graded from the viewpoint of national economic development. In spite that hul form design is one of the most important elements with respect to shipbuilding technology, small and medium sized shipbuilding companies are incapable of developing hull form. Inorder to support technically such companies hull form development was carried out for G/T 999ton class tanker and D/W 4990ton class tanker which are the typical vessels operating in coastal area. The operating efficiency for the developed hull forms are impeoved by 30% for G/T 999ton class tanker and 24% for D/W 4990 tonclass tanker respectively. The results of hull form development including ship model test and performance analysis are presented in this paper.

Brown alga Undaria peterseniana has been interested in the commercial scale aquaculture for warm water species development in southern coastal area of Korea. However, this species was classified an endangered species caused by a decrease in habitat and natural population. In this study, inhabit characteristics of U. peterseniana was investigated in their natural habitat of Ulleung Island, Korea. The U. peterseniana population was occurred dense patches at 20~30m depth. Total length of the alga reached 1.0~2.0m and the largest width ranged 10.0~35.0cm during the study. In 2013, habitats of this species increased two sites compared with the previous year and their distribution extended to low depth (10m) of coastal area. In long-term data, seawater temperature revealed a continuous increment by strong going north of East Korea Warm Current or Ulleung Warm Eddy turning around the coast of Ulleung Island. It suggested that habitat extension of U. peterseniana may be caused by suitable settlement condition and increase of warm water around the coastal area. Current studies of this species may be continuously required in the possibility of fisheries resources as aquaculture species and index species of increment of water temperature at the fixed monitoring site in East Sea. This is the first study to research ecological feature U. peterseniana population at the natural habitat of Ulleung Island.

Multispectral scanner data collected by LANDSAT-1 over the mid West Sea of Korea were analyzed and interpreted for delineation of coastal features and turbidity distribution patterns during different portions of the tidal cycle. Imagery from two successful LANDSAT-1 overpasses of the area in October 1972 and in October 1973 had been used to prepare schematic maps of coastal features and turbidity distributions. Color composite imagery of LANDSAT MSS 4, 5 and 7 gave the best representation of shorelines, coastlines and tidal flats. MSS 5 imagery was most effective in differentiating relative turbidity levels through density slicing techniques. Referring to the tidal power development of Garolim Bay, the basin area measurements assuming dyke construction at the bay entrance, have been carried out on the coastal reature maps comiled from LANDSAT imagery, and those results were correlated with existing data. General areal patterns of surface turbidity distribution in the study area revealed close similarity with bathymetry of the area. Synoptic circulation patterns were also well discriminated from the LANDSAT imagery using the suspended sediment as a tracer.

The national parks of South Korea take up an area of 6,726 ㎢, which accounts for 6.7% of the national land. They are national conservation areas with their area made up of 59.1% of land (3,972.6 ㎢) and 40.9% of seawaters (2,753.7 ㎢). And in 2019, the national parks are classified by type into 17 mountainous, 4 maritime or coastal, and 1 historical site. Here, the maritime or coastal nation parks are lately spotlighted as landmarks in maritime tourism. However, the area of the maritime or coastal national parks is continuously dwindling due to conflicts between the residents in the parks and Korea national park service, the continued pressure with respect to the regional tourism development and private investments, and the abolition of parks in relation to allegedly breached private properties. This study identifies the issues with the operation and management of national parks as caused by the abolition of parks and the reduction of areas, and goes from there to do research with the aim of suggesting an institutionalized improvement plan with a view to more useful operation and management of the maritime or coastal national parks. As a result, the natural resources in the sea and on land should be surveyed again to establish the standard for use-specific zoning and reorganize the park areas in adjusting the national park areas. Second, the use-specific districts need to be reviewed for their reorganization that meets the designation requirements by focusing on the characteristics of the different national parks with a view to ensuring reasonable natural conservation in the maritime or coastal national parks. Third, various support facilities for residents such as public path, lodgings, and rentals need to be created to reduce the conflicts between Korea national park service and those who live in the parks.

해양관측위성으로 1997년에 발사된 SeaWiFS 센서는 해양의 엽록소 분포와 대기환경 등 다양한 지구관측 자료를 제공하고 있고, 현재까지 수신된 많은 자료는 해양뿐만 아니라 육상관측에도 이용되고 있다. 하지만, SeaWIFS 센서는 1 km의 공간해상력으로 인해 연안해역의 관측이 어렵고, 연안역에서의 대기보정 문제가 아직 정립되지 않아 연안해역의 관측에는 아직 활발히 적용되지못하다. 특히, 서.남해 연안해역은 부유사 농도가 높고, 육상에서 비롯되는 용존유기물의 흡광으로 엽록소 분포를 분석하기에 적합한 알고리듬이 개발되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 해양의 엽록소 농도분포를 분석하는데 활용되어온 경험적인 알고리듬을 바탕으로 연안해역의 엽록소 분포를 분석하기에 적합한 경험식을 도출하였으며, 이러한 경험식을 도출하는 과정에서 연안해역의 엽록소 농도 관측을 위해서는 레드영역의 밴드 (665nm)가 활용되어야 한다는 결론을 얻었다.

Reclaimed coastal areas for the construction of ports and harbors are in general subjected to strong possibility of liquefaction. In this research, a new method for liquefaction hazard microzonation based on liquefaction settlements was developed. Severity of liquefaction hazard was defined by liquefaction settlements obtained from the method proposed by Tokimatsu and Seed. 10 coastal areas, representing typical geological and geotechnical characteristics of Korean ports and harbors, and 3 real earthquake records for site response analysis were selected. From this research, liquefaction settlement criteria is adapted as a new quantitative index for the liquefaction hazard microzonation. Liquefaction settlements were also compared with LPI (Liquefaction Potential Index), obtained from the assessment of liquefaction potential based on the modified Seed and Idriss's method. As an example, 2 and 3 dimensional liquefaction hazard microzonations of Pusan port and harbor area were mapped by overlapped liquefaction settlement contours.

대규모 연안개발에 따른 매립사업으로 연안역의 갯벌 또는 염습지 등의 연안생태환경공간은 해마다 감소하고 있다. 이에 따라 연안역 자연환경의 완화조치(Mitigation)의 일환으로 인공갯벌 및 염습지 개발의 필요성이 대두되어 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있으나, 인공 연안공간 조성시 복원정도의 정량적 평가에 관한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 연안생태환경공간 조성지의 복원정도 평가에 대한 기초적인 연구로서, 준설토 배합비에 따라 구분되는 인공갯벌(Zone. P1) 및 염습지(Zone. P2) 현장시험구를 조성하여 생물-화학적 환경인자인 시험구 내 대형저서동물 군집의 생물다양성과 개체수 및 생체량/식생(갈대)의 정착률/종속영양세균수/이화학적 특성(COD, IL, TN, TP, pH)에 대한 환경성 모니터링을 수행하였다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 각 환경인자들의 복원정도를 나타내는 복원지수를 제안하여 연안생태환경공간 조성에 따른 복원정도를 정량적으로 평가하였다.
