While typhoons were passing by the coastal and offshore waters around the Korean peninsula, the variations of the sea surface temperature (SST) were studied. To study on the variation, the data related to the 22 typhoons among 346 typhoons which occurred in the western Pacific during 1990∼1999, daily measured field SSTs at coastal and offshore, and imageries from advanced very high resolution radiometer on NOAA satellite during 1990∼1999 were used. The average variations of the SSTs were -0.9℃ at coastal waters and -2℃ at offshore around the Korean peninsula while the typhoons were passing by. In very near coastal waters from the land, the SST was not changed because the bottom depth of the coastal waters was shallower than the depth of thermalcline, while the typhoon was passing. The temporal and spatial variation of SSTs at coastal waters in summer were depended on the various types of the typhoons＇paths which were passing through the Korean peninsula. When a typhoon passed by the western parts including the Yellow Sea of the Korean peninsula upwelling cold water occurred along the eastern coastal waters of the peninsula. The reason was estimated with the typhoon that was as very strong wind which blew from south toward north direction along the eastern shore of the peninsula, led to the Ekman transport from near the eastern coastal area toward the offshore. While cold water was occurring in the eastern coast, a typhoon passed over the coastal area, the cold water disappeared. The reason was estimated that the cold water was mixed up with the surrounding warm water by the effect of the typhoon. While a cold water was occurring in the eastern coast, a typhoon passed by the offshore of the eastern coast, there were the increasing of the SST as well as the disappearing of the cold water. While a typhoon was passing by the offshore of the eastern coast, the cold water which resulted from the strong tidal current in the western coast of the peninsula was horizontally spread from the onshore to the offshore. We think that the typhoon played the role of the very strong wind which was blowing from north toward south. Therefore, the Ekman transport occurred from the onshore toward the offshore of the western coast in the Korean peninsula.

한국동안의 해수의 물리의 특성 및 해수의 운동에 관하여는 오래 전부터 많은 연구가 행하여졌다. Nishida(1927)에 의하면, 대한해협을 통과한 Tsushima난류는 다시 세 지류로 나뉘어 지며 첫째가 한국동안을 따라 북상하는 북상류, 둘째로 울릉도를 지나는 북동류, 셋째는 일본 북안을 끼고 흐르는 Tsushima본류라 하였다. 또한 그 (1926)의 관측에 의하면 대한해협의 서측북안 즉 한국 남동안 근처에서 수년 주기로 냉수의 표면노출 현상이 나타나고 있으며, 남서향하는 저층냉수의 속도는 0.1-0.35 knot에 이르고 있다. 임과 장(1969)은 대한해협 서측의 남서향 하는 저층수를 냉수괴라 하여 3-1$0^{\circ}C$로 규정하고 있으며, 이러한 저층냉수는 동해에서 생성된 수괴로 여름철에 해저를 따라 남서 방향으로 흘러 나가기 시작한다 하였다. 임(1973)은 대한해협의 저층냉수에 대한 연구에서, 6월에 대한해협을 통과하는 저층냉수 양을 17,135㎥/sec로 추산하였다. 수괴에 대하여는 임(1971)이 대한해협을 통과하는 Tsushima난류의 수괴에 대하여, Abe와 Myazaki(1960), 그리고 Uda에 의하여 동해의 수괴가 연구되었다. 임은 Tsushima난수를 Kuroshio의 표면수와 동지나 연안수의 혼합체라 하였다. Abe와 Myazaki, 그리고 Uda에 의하면, 동해에는 동해중간수(Mid- Water)와 그 밑으로 동해고유수(Japan Sea Proper Water)가 존재하며, 북한한류(North Korea Cold Current)와 Tsushima난류의 극전선 형성으로, 한류를 형성하고 있는 냉수괴가 침강하여 이것이 Tsushima난수의 밑에 존재하게 된다 하였다.

Oceanographic observation and qualitative analysis for deep ocean water in the East Sea were carried out from January 2003 to January 2004, in order to understand the characteristics of deep sea water in the East Sea. Temporal and spatial variation of water masses were discussed from survey of the study area including the coastal sea of Kwangwon province in where the polar front mixing cold and warm water masses were formed. On the basis of the vertical profiles of temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen, water masses in the study area were divided into 5 major groups; (1) Low Saline Surface Water (LSSW) (2) Tsushima Surface water (TSW) (3) Tsushima Middle Water (TMW) (4) North Korea Cold Water (NKCW) and (5) East Sea Proper Water (ESPW). In winter, surface water in coastal sea of Kwangwaan Kosung region were dominated by North Korean Cold Water (NKCW). As Tsushima warm current were enforced in summer, various water masses were vertically emerged in study area, in order of TSW, TMW, NKCW and ESPW. It is highly possible that the LSSW which occurred at surface water of september is originated from influx of fresh water due to the seasonal rainy spell. Nevertheless water masses existed within surface water were seasonally varied, water quality characteristics of East Sea Proper Water (ESPW) under 300 m did not changed all the seasons of the year.

The Yellow Sea Warm Current (YSWC) and the Yellow Sea Cold Bottom Water (YSCBW) are two protruding features, which have strong influence on the community structure and distribution of zooplankton in the Yellow Sea. Both of them are seasonal phenomena. In winter, strong north wind drives southward flow at the surface along both Chinese and Korean coasts, which is compensated by a northward flow along the Yellow Sea Trough. That is the YSWC. It advects warmer and saltier water from the East China Sea into the southern Yellow Sea and changes the zooplankton community structure greatly in winter. During a cruise after onset of the winter monsoon in November 2001 in the southern Yellow Sea, 71 zooplankton species were identified, among which 39 species were tropical, accounting for 54.9 %, much more than those found in summer. Many of them were typical for Kuroshio water, e.g. Eucalanus subtenuis, Rhincalanus cornutus, Pareuchaeta russelli, Lucicutia flavicornis, and Euphausia diomedeae etc. 26 species were warm-temperate accounting for 36.6% and 6 temperate 8.5%. The distribution pattern of the warm water species clearly showed the impact of the YSWC and demonstrated that the intrusion of warmer and saltier water happened beneath the surface northwards along the Yellow Sea Trough. The YSCBW is a bottom pool of the remnant Yellow Sea Winter Water resulting from summer stratification and occupy most of the deep area of the Yellow Sea. The temperature of YSCBW temperature remains ${\leq}{\;}10^{\circ}C$ in mid-summer. It is served as an oversummering site for many temperate species, like Calanus sinicus and Euphaisia pacifica. Calanus sinicus is a dominant copepod in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea and can be found throughout the year with the year maximum in May to June. In summer it disappears in the coastal area and in the upper layer of central area due to the high temperature and shrinks its distribution into YSCBW.

We made intensive observations on the coastal upwelling off the coast of the southern East Sea from June to August in 2001. The upwelling exhibited a weekly waxing and waning. The coastal upwelling of the year 2001 was characterized by abrupt outbreaks and the small local scale. Upwelling occurred more frequently off the coast of Ulsan and Gampo as reported by the earlier observers. The spread of freshly upwelled colder water was varied by each upwelling event. Generally cold waters were carried away northeastward off Pohang province. The upwelled cold waters were saltier than the resident surface waters. The pH and salinity-normalized alkalinity support the idea that the upwelled waters originate from the interior of the East Sea. The extraordinarily high concentration of dissolved oxygen suggests that the upwelled waters are closely connected to the southward flowing North Korea Cold Current. Although a lower primary productivity was reported for the upwelling region, underway surface fluorescence measurement revealed that the recently upwelled waters supported up to an order of magnitude higher algal biomass than the ambient waters. Because thermohaline circulation of the East Sea is so vigorous, with an estimated time scale of less than one hundred years, that the coastal upwelling should be considered not as an anomaly but as a regular component of a circulatory system. A quantitative understanding of upwelling seems to be a key to elucidate material cycling and the associated biological production in the East Sea.

하계 동해의 남서부해역에 냉수가 왜 그리고 어떠한 해양환경하에 출현하는가를 밝히기 위하여 현장조사, 위성자료의 분석 및 수치실험을 실시하였다. 이 해역에서 냉수는 비정상년의 경우는 정상년에 비해 보다 더 연안 가까이에서 출현하였고, 수온도 낮았다. 이것은 냉수가 비정상년에는 정상년에 비해 크게 발달하여 연안역으로 확장함을 의미하였다. 흐름장의 계산결과는 지형류적인 관점에서 수온의 관측결과를 잘 재현하였다. 한편, 정상년의 경우는, 북한한류(NKCW)가 쓰시마난류(TC)와 균형을 유지하면서 동해의 북서쪽에 머물고 있었다. 이에 반해, 비정상년의 경우는, 북한한류가 점차 남쪽으로 남하하여 동해 서부역의 대부분이 북한한류의 세력하에 놓였다. 그래서, 하계 동해 서부 연안역에서의 냉수 출현은 남쪽으로의 북한한류의 확장에 의한 부산물인 것으로 판단되었다. 울산 연안역에 대한 유동계산결과는 하계 남풍이 불 경우, 표층과 저층 사이에 흐름의 역전현상이 나타났다. 따라서, 하계 동해의 남서부 연안역, 특히 수심의 변화가 급한 방어진 부근에서 냉수의 용승이 일어날 수 있음을 시사하였다.

Sea level variations and sea surface circulations in the Korean seas were observed by Topex/Poseidon altimeter data from 1993 through 1997. In sea level variations, the West and South Sea showed relatively high variations with comparison to the East Sea. Then, the northern and southern area in the West Sea showed the range of 20${\sim}$30cm and 18${\sim}$24cm, and the northern west of Jeju island and the southern west of Tsushima island in the South Sea showed the range of 15${\sim}$20cm and 10${\sim}$15cm, respectively. High variations in the West Sea was results to the inflow in sea surface of Yellow Sea Warm Current (YSWC) and bottom topography. Sea level variations in the South Sea was due to two branch currents(Jeju Warm Current and East Korea Warm Current) originated from Kuroshio Current (KC). In sea surface circulations, there existed remarkably three eddies circulations in the East Sea that are mainly connected with North Korea Cold Current (NKCC), East Korea Warm Current (EKWC) and Tushima Warm Current(TWC). Their eddies are caused basically to the influence of currents in sea surface circulations; Cyclone (0.03 cm/sec) in the Wonsan bay off shore with NKCC, and anticyclone (0.06 cm/sec) in the southwestern area of Ulleung island with EKWC, and cyclone (0.01 cm/sec) in the northeastern area of Tushima island with TWC, respectively.
