광양만 권역의 해수 순환 양상과 섬진강 하천수 유입으로 발생하는 밀도류 이동 양상을 3차원 수치모델링 실험을 통해 연구하였다. $120m^3/s$의 섬진강 연평균 유량을 부과하여 실험을 진행하였다. 조위와 유속장, 염분장에 대해 각각 스킬분석(skill analysis)을 이용하여 모델을 검증하였으며, 그 결과 대부분 90%가 넘는 재현율을 보였다. 모델은 조류, 담수유입에 의한 염분장의 변화를 잘 재현하였다. 창낙조시의 유속장의 분포는 1~2.5 m/s의 범위를 보였다. 특히 노량과 대방, 그리고 창선수로에서 2.0 m/s 이상의 강한 흐름이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 지형적 요인에 의해 좌우되는 조석잔차류의 크기는 1~21 cm/s의 범위를 보였고, 섬진강 담수 유입으로 인해 형성된 표층의 밀도류는 여수해만으로 진행하는 12 cm/s의 이하의 남향류와 노량수로로 진행하는 4 cm/s 이하의 동향류가 발생한다. 특히 여수해만에서의 밀도류 흐름은 서쪽 해안에 편향되어 남하하는 양상을 보였다. 모델 내 경계면에서의 체적 수송량과 밀도류 분포를 분석한 결과, 평수기시 섬진강으로부터 광양만 권역에 유입된 담수는 $97.4m^3/s$ (81.5%)가 여수해만으로 유입되며 $22.1m^3/s$ (18.5%)가 진주만으로 유입되는 양상을 보였다.

이 연구에서는 동해의 해수 중 방사성탄소의 분지별 비교 및 시간에 따른 변화를 이해하고자 하였다. 1999년 동해의 일본분지, 울릉분지, 야마토분지 3개 분지에서 총 5개의 정점에서 채취한 시료로부터 방사성탄소를 분석하였다. 동해의 방사성탄소는 일반적인 대양에서의 분포와 유사하게 표층에서 2000 m 수심까지 가파르게 감소하는 양상을 보이며, 2000 m 보다 깊은 수심에서는 일정한 값을 보였다. 분지별로 방사성탄소의 수직분포를 비교해 보면, 3개의 분지의 표층(<200 m)에서 방사성탄소 값은 63~85‰ 이내로 유사하였으나 200~2000 m의 중층수에서는 분지별로 최대 60‰까지 차이가 나타났다. 중층수의 방사성탄소는 일본분지, 울릉분지, 야마토분지 순으로 높은 값이 나타나는데, 이는 중층수 순환의 형태와 그 분포가 일치한다. 2000 m 보다 깊은 수심의 저층수에서는 방사성탄소가 분지별로 뚜렷한 차이 없이 모든 분지에서 -80~-60‰ 내의 값을 보인다. 동해 표층수에서는 시간에 따라 매년 약 2‰씩 ${\Delta}^{14}C$ 값이 감소하였다. 반면, 동해 심층에서의 방사성탄소는 세개의 분지 모두 시간에 따라 증가하고 있다. 동해 중앙수의 방사성탄소는 매년 약 3.3‰ 증가하고 있는데, 이는 심층수나 저층수보다 시간에 따라 빠르게 증가한다. 심층수와 저층수에서는 방사성탄소가 1990년대 중반까지 증가하다가 1995년 이후로는 거의 증가하지 않고 일정한 값을 보인다. 심층수와 저층수에서의 ${\Delta}^{14}C$ 값의 시간에 따른 변화는 동해의 심층수 형성의 시간적 변화와 연관지어 해석되어야 할 것이다. 향후 동해 해수순환의 변화를 이해하기 위하여 방사성탄소 연구가 지속되어야 할 것이다.

A series of preliminary model tests are performed to find out the wave attenuating effect of the pneumatic breakwater of environment friendly type, which is a bubble screen generated by releasing compressed air from a submerged multiple parallel manifold Rising bubbles induce vertical current, which produces horizontal currents flowing away from the bubble-screen area in both directions. Near bottom, the corresponding currents flow toward the bubble screen, thus completing the circulation pattern. The surface current moving against the direction of wave propagation causes some attenuation of the waves. It becomes more effective as the relative depth (d/ L) increases (short-period waves in deep water). With the same air-discharge, the multiple parallel manifold can be more effective for the attenuation of longer waves through optimum arrangement of manifold number. installation depth, manifold gap, etc. The pneumatic breakwater will give a wide utilization as a device for protecting harbor facilities and as a simple, mobile breakwater.

Among others, a question that has long been unanswered is why the seasonal variation of volume transport is larger in the Soya and Korea/Tsushima Straits than in the Tsugaru Strait. An attempt is made to answer this question in terms of the island rule with friction being taken into account. The problem is idealized as a simple model. The model results indicate that volume transport through a channel is determined not only by the circulation created around the adjacent island but also by those created around the neighboring islands farther away. The latter is due to the presence of bottom friction in the channels. The volume transports through the Korea/Tsushima, Tsugaru and Soya Straits estimated from the model using observed wind data show the general pattern of observed seasonality, although they contain large errors associated with the uncertain frictional parameter employed in the model. The model indicates that the observed seasonality arises essentially from the fact that wind stress curl changes its sign, from negative in the summer to positive in winter, following a large fluctuation of zero-stress curl latitude east of Hokkaido.

The objective of this essay is to propose a cultural history of cosmography and cartography from the thirteenth to the sixteenth centuries. It focuses on some of the processes that characterized these fields of knowledge, using mainly western European sources. First, it elucidates the meaning that the term cosmography held during the period under consideration, and the scientific status that this composite field of knowledge enjoyed, pointing to the main processes that structured cosmography between the thirteenth century and the sixteenth century. I then move on to expound the circulation of cosmographic knowledge among Portugal, Venice and Lisbon in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. This analysis will show how cartography and cosmography were produced at the interface of articulated commercial, diplomatic and scholarly networks; finally, the last part of the essay focuses on the specific and quite distinctive use of cosmography in fifteenth-century European culture: the representation of "geo-political" projects on the world through the reformulation of the very concepts of sea and maritime networks. This last topic will be developed through the study of Fra Mauro's mid-fifteenth-century visionary project about changing the world connectivity through the linking of several maritime and fluvial networks in the Indian Ocean, Central Asia, and the Mediterranean Sea basin, involving the circumnavigation of Africa. This unprecedented project was based on a variety of sources accumulated in the Mediterranean Sea basin as well as in Asia and in the Indian Ocean over the course of several centuries.

Surface current fields in the eastern East China Sea (ECS) were constructed by analyzing trajectories of 58 satellite-tracked surface drifters released during 1991-1996. Composite trajectories and 20-minute-by-20-minute box-averaged current vectors show that the basic current pattern composes of: the Kuroshio main stream, which turns eastward toward the Tokara Strait; a northward branch current of the Kuroshio on the ECS outer shelf deeper than 100 m; and an anticyclonic circulation in the northern Okinawa Trough west of Kyushu. The northward branch current sharply changes its direction to the northeast when it crosses a line connecting Cheju Island, Korea and Goto Islands, Japan. The basic pattern of current field changes slightly from winter to summer, and the main axis of the Tsushima Current in the Korea Strait is found to shift seasonally. The drifter experiment does not support the claim that the Yellow Sea Warm Current is separated from the northward branch current on the outer shelf southeast of Cheju Island. We suggest that the use of the term 'Tsushima Current' be limited to the northeast channel flow in the Korea Strait. The new term 'Kuroshio Branch Current' is suggested for the northward branch current on the outer shelf south of Cheju-do, which is separated from the Kuroshio.

The present study intends to investigate the transient response of an atmosphere /ocean general circulation model to a gradual Increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide. To detect the climatic change of the for 1% $CO_2$ run with increasing $CO_2$ and the control run with fried $CO_2$ are compared. From response of the surface air temperature due to the gradual increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide is slowly increased with latitudes and is clearly larger over continents than oceans. The annual goffal mean temperature is continuously increased with 0.03552 per one year with strong SIN ratio and distinguished from the natural variability The time dependent response of the gradual increasing $CO_2$ has the strong seasonal variability with small change In summer and large change in winter, and the strong regional In the Asian and the American continents. It has been suggested that the direct and the feedback processes in the climate systems should be investigated by the detailed sensitivity runs to get the meaninguul estimate of the $CO_2$ forced variability.

Sea Surface Temperature (SST) is the temperature close to the ocean's surface and affects the Earth's atmosphere as an important parameter for the climate circulation and change. The SST from satellite still has biases from the error in specifying retrieval coefficients from either forward modeling or instrumental biases. So in this paper, we performed sensitivity analysis using input parameter of the SST to notice that the SST is most affected among the input parameter. We used Infrared (IR) data from the Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS)/Meteorological Imager (MI) from April 2011 to March 2012. We also used the Global Space-based Inter-Calibration System (GSICS) correction to quality of the IR data from COMS. SST was calculated by substituting the input parameters; IR data with or without the GSICS correction. The results of this sensitivity analysis, the SST was sensitive from -0.0403 to 0.2743 K when the IR data were changed by the GSICS corrections.

간단한 쇄파대 모델이 제시된다. 제시된 모델은 파랑작용(wave action)이 쇄파대내에서 보존된다는 것을 입증함으로써 기존의 방법과는 아주 다른 접근방법을 택하고 있다. 파랑작용 이러한 보존법척은 파랑 에너지의 보존법칙과 함께 비교적 적은 실험상수를 필요로하는 쇄파대 모델의 개발을 가능토록하였다. 모델은 쇄파대 특성을 예상 가능케하며 2차원적인 점진적 경사에 대해서 분석적인 형태로 제시된다. 그 분석된 결과는 가능한 실험실자료와 비교하여 만족할만하였다. 이 쇄파대 모델은 수직적 흐름 모델의 수면경계에서의 흐름패턴을 제공하고 따라서 3차원적인 흐름패턴의 해를 구하는 데 상당히 기여할 것이다.

Environmental changes caused by the abrupt climatic change are one of the important issues in the scientific community. In the East Sea, abrupt climatic shift, called Younger Dryas, is identified. The age of the Younger Dryas cold episode occurred at 11.2 ka. Overall, changes in circulation and bottom water conditions occurred during the Younger Dryas cold episode in the study area. Especially, climatic transition from meltwater spike to the Younger Dryas cold episode is characterized by significant shifts of oxygen isotope values, the coiling ratios of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma, and the planktonic foraminifers abundances. The impact of abrupt climate change on the ecosystem is very significant. In the East Sea, the calcium carbonate secreting organism(foraminifers) is replaced by silicon dioxide secreting organisms(diatom, radiolarian) after the abrupt and severe cold climatic event. Based on the Doctrine of Uniformitarianism, at least climate change for the next 100 years would be severely influence on the marine ecosystem.
