  • Power plant is the important infrastructure to generate electricity. This plant in normally located next to river and seashore in order to take cooling water through intake. However, the plant is stopped when marine organism blocks the intake, and it caused damages by social and commercial. Therefore, air bubble barrier has been used to block marine organism in order to operate the plant properly. The aim of this study was to test the rates of cut off of floating substance by air bubble barrier to develop the facility for the plant. The test was conducted by current velocity, pressure of air, specific gravity of the substance and the layer of the barrier, and the result showed the blocking rates by the condition. It will be used as basic data to develop the air bubble barrier and to operate power plant properly from the marine organism.

  • Compound coastal disasters are a type of natural disaster featuring both internal and external flooding due to rises in sea-level, torrential rains, typhoons, and tsunamis. The, incidence and scale of damage from such disasters is increasing. This aim of this study was to review the current laws and systems managing the phenomenon of the coastal complex disaster, and to derive recommendations for improvements to manage and prevent them. In this study, the Framework Act on the Management of Disasters and Safety, the Countermeasures against Natural Disasters Act, the National Land Planning and Utilization Act, the Coast Management Act, the River Act, and the Sewerage Act were reviewed, with focus on the district-zoning system designated by ministries for the management of natural disasters along the coast. Through a comparison of the purpose and nature of the laws, spatial scope, and management resources, it was judged that it would be desirable to comprehensively manage compound coastal disasters based on the Countermeasures Against Natural Disasters Act. In order to overcome the limitations of the current system and to derive specific measures to improve laws and systems, a questionnaire survey on detailed factors was conducted targeting experts in natural disaster management. The results indicated that it is necessary to improve the current system or introduce a new system for the management of coastal complex disasters, with integrated management of land and sea areas through the installation and operation of integrated decision-making governance by related ministries such as MOIS, MOLIT, MOF, and ME.

  • Recently, the prediction and analysis technology of marine environment are actively being studied since the ocean resources in the world is taken notice. The prediction of marine disaster by automatic collecting marine environment data and analyzing the collected data can contribute to minimized the damages with respect to marine pollution of oil spill and fisheries damage by red tide blooms and marine environment upsets. However the studies of the marine environment monitoring and analysis system are limited in South Korea. In this paper, we study the marine disasters prediction system model to analyze collection marine information of out sea and near sea. This paper proposes the models for the marine disasters prediction system as communication system model, a marine environment data monitoring system model, prediction and analyzing system model, and situations propagation system model. The red tide prediction model and summarizing and analyzing model is proposed for prediction and analyzing system model.

  • Jeollanam-do has 25 land-to-island and island-to-island bridges, the largest number in Korea. It is a local government rich in specialized marine and tourism resources centered on the archipelago and the sea bridges connecting them. However, in the case of sea-crossing bridges, when strong winds or typhoons occur, there is an issue that increases anxiety among users and local residents due to excessive vibration of the bridge, apart from structural safety of the bridge. In fact, in the case of Cheonsa Bridge in Shinan-gun, which was recently opened in 2019, vehicle traffic restrictions due to strong winds and excessive vibrations frequently occurred, resulting in complaints from local residents and drivers due to increased anxiety. Therefore, based on the data measured using IoT measurement technology, it is possible to relieve local residents' anxiety about the safety management of marine bridges by providing quantitative and accurate bridge vibration levels related to traffic and wind conditions of bridges in real time to local residents. This study uses the existing measurement system and IoT sensor to constantly observe the wind speed and vibration of the marine bridge, and transmits it to local residents and managers to relieve anxiety about the safety and traffic of the sea-crossing bridge, and strong winds and to develop technologies capable of preemptively responding to large-scale disasters.

  • In Korea for 20 years(1993-2012), total number and average annual number of oil spills were 6,608 cases and total volume and average annual volume of oils spilt were $57,328k{\ell}$ and nearly $2,866k{\ell}/year$, respectively. The annual number of oil spills and annual amount of oil spilt tended to decrease with the lapse of year in Korea. As oil transportation worldwide continues to increase, many communities are at risk of oil spill disasters and must anticipate and prepare for them. Factors that influence oil spill consequences are myriad and rage from the biophysical to the social. In this paper, we analysed the emergency response systems and recovery apparatuses for oil spill accident in marine and proposed a developed oil diffusion apparatus which can be used to initial response stage by crew, and to extend golden times. This system can be minimized casualties for rescued people in disaster.

  • With the use of Supercomputer and engineering workstations, high quality computer graphic representation of the modeling of marine process is feasible. In this wort major tsunami events occurred during recent years were simulated by numerical models and the computed water levels were viewed as three-dimensional surfaces in an animated sequence. Photorealistic images are constructed by advanced rendering technique with light reflection and shadows. It has demonstrated that video animation of numerical results reproduced the behaviour of propagation of real tsunami events remarkably well.

  • Marine disaster, such as 'the sinking of the Sewol ferry', on the ocean needs emergency communication with land post and Rescue services. Especially, It needs of emergency comomunication system has increased in Korea peninsula with the sea on three side. The system will be more fully equipped to deal with disasters linked to communication so alone sailing ship is at sea. Research is needed on communication links to submarines operated by submarine to sink a ship, as well as immersion in the sea with. And it is necessary in the study of the land in preparation for the emergency disaster ship and submarine communication links for offshore and subsea oil and associated communication systems. Will be studied in preparation for the communication protocols and emergency and disaster location and land the plane or for a career in the satellite systems are linked through this. It is necessary for this purpose is research on the integrated emergency disaster communication ecosystem.

  • Due to climate change, there is an increasing risk of complex (hybrid) disasters, comprising rising sea-levels, typhoons, and torrential rains. This study focuses on Marine City, Busan, a new residential city built on a former landfill site in Suyeong Bay, which recently suffered massive flood damage following a combination of typhoons, storm surges, and wave overtopping and run-up. Preparations for similar complex disasters in future will depend on risk impact assessment and prioritization to establish appropriate countermeasures. A framework was first developed for this study, followed by the collection of data on flood prediction and socioeconomic risk factors. Five socioeconomic risk factors were identified: (1) population density, (2) basement accommodation, (3) building density and design, (4) design of sidewalks, and (5) design of roads. For each factor, absolute criteria were determined with which to assess their level of risk, while expert surveys were consulted to weight each factor. The results were classified into four levels and the risk level was calculated according to the sea-level rise predictions for the year 2100 and a 100-year return period for storm surge and rainfall: Attention 43 %, Caution 24 %, Alert 21 %, and Danger 11 %. Finally, each level, indicated by a different color, was depicted on a complex disaster risk map.
