  • 하계 대한해협 서수도에는 연직적으로 특성이 서로 다른 세 개의 수괴가 존재한다. 그 중 표층수에 대하여 인접 해역의 해수 특성과 상호 비교함으로써 그 기원과 유로를 추정하였다. 그 결과, 표층수는 동지나해의 대륙붕 상에서 형성된 Kuroshio수와 중국대륙연안수의 혼합수로써, 중국대륙연안수의 영향을 더 많이 받는 것으로 나타났다. 대부분의 표층수는 Kyushu Island의 서쪽 해역, 경도 126$^{\circ}$E와 127$^{\circ}$E 사이 해역과 제주도 동쪽 해역을 거쳐 유입되고, 한국 연안 부근에 있는 일부 표층수는 제주도 서쪽해협을 거쳐 유입된 것으로 나타났다.

  • This paper describes three cyclostomatous bryozoans belonging to the family Tubuliporidae Johnston, 1838 from Korean waters. It was carried out with the materials which were collected from three localities during the period from 2011 to 2017. As a result of the present study, three cyclostomatous bryozoans, Exidmonea intercalata Liu, Liu & Zágoršek, 2019, Qingdaoella conaria Liu, Liu & Zágoršek, 2019 and Tubulipora perforata Liu, Liu & Zágoršek, 2019 are newly added to the Korean bryozoan fauna. Furthermore, two genera, Exidmonea David, Mongereau & Pouyet, 1972 and Qingdaoella Liu, Liu & Zágoršek, 2019, are reported for the first time from Korea. These species were previously known only in Qingdao, China, which belongs to the temperate zone influenced by the Kuroshio Current. Descriptions and illustrations of the three cyclostomatous bryozoans using Scanning Electron Microscopy are provided in this study.

  • In the present study, we assess the GloSea5 (Global Seasonal Forecasting System version 5) near-surface ocean current forecasts using globally observed surface drifter dataset. Annual mean surface current fields at 0-day forecast lead time are quite consistent with drifter-derived velocity fields, and low values of root mean square (RMS) errors distributes in global oceans, except for regions of high variability, such as the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, Kuroshio, and Gulf Stream. Moreover a comparison with the global high-resolution forecasting system, HYCOM (Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model), signifies that GloSea5 performs well in terms of short-range surface-current forecasts. Predictions from 0-day to 4-week lead time are also validated for the global ocean and regions covering the main ocean basins. In general, the Indian Ocean and tropical regions yield relatively high RMS errors against all forecast lead times, whilst the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans show low values. RMS errors against forecast lead time ranging from 0-day to 4-week reveal the largest increase rate between 0-day and 1-week lead time in all regions. Correlation against forecast lead time also reveals similar results. In addition, a strong westward bias of about $0.2m\;s^{-1}$ is found along the Equator in the western Pacific on the initial forecast day, and it extends toward the Equator of the eastern Pacific as the lead time increases.

  • Both benthic and planktonic foraminifera from Core 97-02 obtained in the northern East China Sea are quantitatively analyzed for reconstructing the paleocenography of late Quaternary. Since the earliest time of the core sediment (last not older than 18000 yr B.P.), the paleo-water depth has changed from less than 20 m to near 100 m at present, which is reflected by the benthic foraminiferal assemblages: before 14000 yr B.P., the water depth was shallower than 20 m; from 14000 to 7500 yr B.P., water depth was 20-50 m; and after 7500 yr B.P., water depth was 50-100 m. The foraminiferal fauna also disclose the water mass history: during the last glacial maximum, the water that dominated the study area might be the coastal water; at the end of the last glacial maximum(14000-9500 yr B.P.), the Yellow Sea Cold Water mostly affected this area; then it gave way to the Yellow Sea Warm Current after 9500 yr B.P.; and finally, the warm water has dominated this area since 9500 yr B.P. because of the westward shift and enhancement of the Kuroshio Current.

  • China Coastal Water (CCW) usually appears in the seas surrounding Jeju Island annually (June-October) and is very pronounced in August. The power spectrum density (PSD), sea level anomalies (SLAs), and sea surface temperatures (SSTs) were found to peak annually and semiannually. The peaks at intervals of 80-, 60-, and 43-days are considered to be influenced by CCW and the Kuroshio Current. Generally, low-salinity water appears to the west of Jeju Island from June through October and gradually propagates to the east, where CCW meets the Tsushima Current. Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis of SLAs and SSTs indicated that the variance in SLAs and SSTs was 55.70 and 98.09% in the first mode, respectively. The PSD for the first mode of EOF analysis of SLAs was stronger in the western than in the eastern waters because of the influence of CCW. The PSD for the EOF analysis of SSTs was similar in all areas (the Yangtze Estuary and the waters to the west and east of Jeju Island), with a period of approximately 260 days.

  • The Cheju Current (CC), defined here as a mean eastward flow in the Cheju Strait, mostly carries water of high temperature and salinity originating from the Kuroshio in winter and spring, the Cheju Warm Current Water (CWCW). The strong core of the eastward component of the CC is found close to Cheju Island (Cheju-Do, hereafter) in winter and spring with a peak speed of about 17.0 cm/s. The eastward flow weakens towards the northern Cheju Strait, and a weak westward flow occurs occasionally close to the southern coast of Korea. The volume transport ranges from 0.37 to 0.45 Sv(1 Sv=10$^6$ m$^3$/s) in winter and spring. Seasonal thermocline and harocline are formed in summer and eroded in November. The occurrence of the CWCW is confined in the southern Cheju Strait close to Cheju-Do below the seasonal thermocline in summer and fall, and cold water occupies the lower layer north of the CWCW which is thought to be brought into the area from the area west of Cheju-Do along with the CWCW. Stratification acts to increase both the speed of the CC with a peak speed of greater than 30 cm/s and the vertical shear of the along-strait currents. The strong core of the CC detached from the coast of Cheju-Do and shifted to the north during the stratified seasons. The volume transport in summer and fall ranges 0.510.66 Sv, which is about 1.5 times larger than that in winter and spring. An annual cycle of the cross-strait sea level difference shows its maximum in summer and fall and minimum in winter and spring, whose tendency is consistent with the annual variability of the CC and its transport estimated from the ADCP measurements. Moored current measurements west of Cheju-Do indicate the clockwise turning of the CC, and the moored current measurements in the Cheju Strait for 1530 days show the low-frequency variability of the along-strait flow with a period of about 37 days.

  • Himawari-8/Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) 열적외 채널 자료에 Maximum Cross Correlation (MCC), Zero-mean Sum of Absolute Distances (ZSAD), Zero-mean Sum of Squared Distances (ZSSD) 알고리즘을 적용하여 표층 해류를 산출하고, 그 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 각 알고리즘으로 쿠로시오해류 해역의 표층 해류장을 산출한 결과 서로 유사한 양상을 보였다. 오차 발생 비율은 알고리즘에 따른 차이가 거의 나타나지 않았으며, 표층 해류 산출 연산에 소요되는 시간은 ZSAD와 ZSSD 알고리즘이 MCC 알고리즘에 비해 각각 24%, 18% 감소하였다. 산출된 표층 해류는 인공위성 추적 표층 뜰개 자료와 인공위성 고도계 자료로 계산한 표층 해류를 통해 검증하였고, 세 가지 알고리즘의 정확도는 모두 유사한 범위의 값으로 나타났다. 또한 산출된 표층 해류의 정확도는 휘도 온도 수평 구배의 크기와 두 영상 사이의 시간 간격에 의해 영향을 받았다.

  • 본 연구에서는 제 3세대 파랑 모형인 WAVEWATCH-III모델 (Tolman, 1999)과 기상청 해양기상 관측부이(4기) 자료를 이용하여 파랑인자 특성에 관한 분석이 이루어졌다. 풍속이 증가한 후 약 2-3시간 후에 유의파고가 커지고, 풍속과 유의파고의 상관성은 비교적 외해에 위치한 동해 부이에서 크게 나타났다. 육풍 발생 시 두 인자 사이의 상관계수 값이 급격히 떨어졌으며, 풍속과 파고 편차 시계열 자료에서는 동채부이를 제외하고 지배적인 조석주기가 발견되었다 부이 자료와의 비교를 통하여 WAVEWATCH-III모델의 파랑 모의 성능을 진단한 후에, 쿠로시오 해역과 동해 해역의 수치 실험을 통해서 파랑의 진행 방향에 대해 반대 방향으로 해류가 흐를 때는 파고는 높아지고, 파장은 짧아진다는 사실을 재확인했다. 또한 이러한 효과는 풍속이 약하거나 해류가 강할 때 더 커지는 양상을 나타냈으며 이에 대한 정량적인 결과를 제시하였다.

  • Using results from an earth system model, the distribution of partial pressure of $CO_2$ ($pCO_2$) in surface seawater over the East China Sea is investigated. In this area $pCO_2$ shows minimum along the edge of the continental break along the path of the Taiwan-Tsushima Current System. Apparently modelled chlorophyll is also great along the current but the maximum of the chlorophyll and the minimum of $pCO_2$ do not coincide suggesting that the primary production is not the main cause of the $pCO_2$ minimum. As we move toward the Yellow Sea from the Kuroshio area the temperature decreases so that the $pCO_2$ becomes smaller. If we move further toward the Yellow Sea beyond the Taiwan-Tsushima Current System, alkalinity starts to drop substantially to intensify $pCO_2$ while overcoming the effect of decreasing temperature and salinity. Thus $pCO_2$ minimum occurs along the Taiwan-Tsushima Current System. Of course, the primary production lower $pCO_2$ during spring when it is high but the effect is local. Near the Yangtze river mouth and northeastern corner of the Yellow Sea the fresh water input is large enough and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) becomes low enough so that $pCO_2$ becomes lower again.

  • 다양한 중등학교 과학교과서 동해 해류도의 통일이 최근에 완성됨에 따라 황해와 동중국해의 해류도 제작에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 이 연구는 그 첫 단계로서 과학 논문과 2014년 현행 교과서의 해류도들을 분석하여 향후 황해와 동중국해의 통일된 해류도를 제작하는 과정을 촉진시키고자 하였다. 우선 교과서와 과학 논문의 아날로그 해류도들을 수치화하여 해류도의 특성을 정량적으로 조사하였고 해류도들을 상호 비교하였다. 쿠로시오해류, 대만난류, 대마난류, 황해난류, 중국연안류, 한국연안류, 양쯔강 유출류와 같이 황해와 동중국해의 해류들을 선정하고 정의하였다. 이 해류들의 경로를 조사하기 위하여 18개의 세부 항목을 만들고 이를 분석에 활용하였다. 각 세부항목에 대하여 교과서와 과학 논문 해류도들을 분석한 결과, 교과서 해류도들은 과학 논문으로부터 획득한 해류에 관한 최근의 지식과 상당한 차이를 나타내었다. 또한 황해와 동중국해 해류는 계절에 따라 크게 변화하므로 해류 전문가들의 활발한 토의를 통하여 교과서 해류도를 적어도 여름철과 겨울철로 구분하여 제시해야 할 것이다.
