To provide evidence that the changes in oceanic environmental conditions are useful indices for predicting stock structure and distribution of the Pacific saury (Cololabis saira), the body length compositions and catch per unit fishing effort were examined in relation to the sea surface temperature(SST) anomalies in the Tsushima Warm Current(TWC) region. The size of the fish became larger(smaller) than the average in the same size category during the season of higher SST(lower SST) as opposed to the normal SST. The year-to-year changes in body size caused by the changes in the environmental conditions led the stock to be homogeneous during the period of high stock level from the late 1950s to early 1970s and in the 1990s. The changes in body size manifested by higher(lower) occurrence rates of larger (smaller) sized groups in relation to temperature anomalies suggest that the changes in the environmental conditions affect the distribution and the structure of the stock in the TWC region. Therefore, if the SST anomaly derived from satellite data is large enough in the early spring months(Mar. or Apr.), it is possible to predict whether or not sea temperature will be favorable for large sized groups of saury at normal or slightly earlier time of commencement of the fishery in spring(Apr.∼June).

The processes of regional scales in the East Korean coastal waters were investigated by analysis of the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images taken by the European Research Satellites ERS-1, ERS-2 and Envisat. More than 500 quick look frames taken in 1991-2003 were examined to detect the frames with clearly surface expressions of oceanic phenomena. 26 ERS-1/2 SAR and 11 Envisat wide swath Advanced SAR (ASAR) frames were selected and obtained from the European Space Agency in a form of the precision high-resolution images. The following oceanic phenomena and processes were evident in the radar imagery through the Korean costal waters: fronts, currents, eddies, internal waves, island and ship wakes, oil pollution, etc. They manifested themselves in the field of sea surface roughness, their scale ranged from several tens meters to about 100 km. The most common morphology of these phenomena was a series of contrast dark or light curvilinear lines and bands. The joint analysis of the discussed SAR images with other satellite and in situ data supported and enhanced our interpretation of SAR signatures.

최근 대두 되고 있는 지구 온난화 및 기후 변화와 관련해서 수온이 해양 생태계에 미치는 영향을 알기 위하여 한반도 주변 해역을 중심으로 $1988{\sim}2000$년까지 NOAA SST자료를 활용하여 어류 회류의 변동성에 대하여 조사하였다. 위성자료를 분석해 본 결과 우리나라는 전반적으로 온난화 경향이 나타나고 있다. 연근해의 수온상승과 비교해 볼 때, 오징어, 멸치, 정어리, 꽁치 등 회유성 어종의 분포해역이 점차 북상하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 난류성 어종인 오징어와 멸치의 어획량은 증가한 반면, 한류성 어종인 꽁치와 정어리는 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 그러나 어황에 영향을 미치는 요인에는 수온뿐만 아니라 염분 및 오염도 등 여러 가지 요소가 존재하기 때문에 수온상승으로 인해 생기는 어황의 변화라고 단정 짓기는 어렵다. 따라서 금후 기후 변동과 연근해 어황 변화에 대해서도 계속적인 연구가 필요하다.

Changes in the fishing grounds for four drag-bagnet fisheries (large trawl, large pair trawl, large Danish seine and middle Danish seine) were investigated by year and sea-blocks in Korean waters. We used catch and effort data by sea-block (latitude × longitude: 30' × 30') of the National Institute of Fisheries Science (NIFS) and yearly fishing production statistics of the Korean statistic information service from 2008 to 2014. The main benthic habitat of fishing ground was sand and sandy mud material. The average swept areas for the four fisheries were 181.7 km², 606.4 km², 2,720.9 km² and 252.8 km², respectively. The main fishing ground was around Jeju Island and the eastern South Sea. The main fishing ground moved to the northern part of the South Sea during the study period due to a closure of fishing grounds and changes in the target species.

동해의 남서해역에 위치하는 울릉분지의 지각은 정상적인 해양지각보다 두꺼워서 과연 해양지각인지 아니면 얇아진 대륙지각인지가 불분명하다. 울릉분지의 지각구조와 그 특성을 정확히 모르는 가운데 분지의 진화에 관한 서로 다른 모델들이 제시되고 있음에 비추어 이 논문에서는 심부 탄성파 탐사자료를 이용하여 울릉분지의 지각구조와 특성을 밝히고 형성에 대한 단서를 제시하고자 한다. 울릉분지 지각의 두께는 10 km로서 정상적인 해양지각보다 두꺼우나 해저면 지진계 자료의 -p 분석과 2차원 파선추적을 기초로 하는 해석의 결과는 다음과 같이 해양지각의 특징을 가짐을 지시한다. (1) 울릉분지의 지각은 깊이에 따른 속도와 속도구배(velocity gradient)의 분포에서 상부층과 하부층으로 구성되는데 이들은 각각 전형적인 해양지각을 이루는 층단위 2 (layer 2)와 층단위 3 (layer 3)과 일치한다. (2) 상부층과 하부층 사이에는 약 1 km 구간에 걸쳐 5.7-6.3 km/s의 속도를 갖는 층을 관찰할 수 있는데, 이 것은 해양 층단위 2와 3 사이의 전이층으로 알려진 층단위 2C를 나타낸다. 그러므로 전형적인 대륙지각의 특징을 보이는 남서 일본열도가 늘어나면서 울릉분지가 형성되었다고는 볼 수 없다. 대신, 지각의 속도와 두께는 맨틀플룸의 바로 위가 아니라 그 주위에서 형성되는 정상보다 뜨거운 맨틀대류권내에서 발생하는 해저면확장에 의해 울릉분지가 형성되었음을 지시한다. 울릉분지의 형성에 영향을 미친 맨틀플룸은 중국 북동부에 존재하였을 것으로 추정되는데 이러한 논리는 울릉분지내와 그 주변에 분포하는 화산암의 형성시 맨틀플룸의 영향을 받았다는 지화학적 추론과 일치한다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 동해 남서부의 열림이 일본열도의 늘어남에 의한 것이 아니라 해저면 확장과 맨틀플룸의 영향을 받은 것임을 제시한다.

In this study, the oceanic Total Precipitable Water (TPW) retrieval algorithm at 16 km altitude of High Altitude Long Endurance Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (HALE UAV) is described. Empirical equation based on Wentz method (1995) that uses the 18.7 and 22.235 GHz channels is developed using the simulated brightness temperature and SeeBor training dataset. To do radiative simulation, Satellite Data Simulator Unit (SDSU) Radiative Transfer Model (RTM) is used. The data of 60% (523) and 40% (349) in the SeeBor training dataset are used to develop and validate the TPW retrieval algorithm, respectively. The range of coefficients for the TPW retrieval at the altitude of 3~18 km with 3 km interval were 153.69~199.87 (${\alpha}$), 54.330~58.468 (${\beta}$), and 84.519~93.484 (${\gamma}$). The bias and RMSE at each altitude were found to be about $-0.81kg\;m^{-2}$ and $2.17kg\;m^{-2}$, respectively. Correlation coefficients were more than 0.9. Radiosonde observation has been generally operated over land. To validate the accuracy of the oceanic TPW retrieval algorithm, observation data from the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) Gisang 1 research vessel about six clear sky cases representing spring, autumn, and summer season is used. Difference between retrieved and observed TPW at 16 km altitude were in the range of $0.53{\sim}1.87kg\;m^{-2}$, which is reasonable for most applications. Difference in TPW between retrieval and observation at each altitude (3~15 km) is also presented. Differences of TPW at altitudes more than 6 km were $0.3{\sim}1.9kg\;m^{-2}$. Retrieved TPW at 3 km altitude was smaller than upper level with a difference of $-0.25{\sim}0.75kg\;m^{-2}$ compared to the observed TPW.

본 연구에서는 국제 공동 해양 재분석 자료 비교 프로젝트 결과를 요약하였다. 다양한 재분석 자료 생산 시스템의 종류 및 특성을 소개하였으며, 대표적인 8가지 해양 변수(열용량, 열염분 높이, 해수면 높이, 표층 열속, 혼합층 깊이, 아표층염분, $20^{\circ}C$ 등온선 깊이, 해빙)에 대한 전지구 해양 자료 동화 모델 성능을 비교 분석하였다. 일반적으로 단일 재분석 자료 결과보다 앙상블 평균 값이 비교적 높은 성능을 나타내었으나, 검증 변수와 해역에 따라 서로 다른 특징을 보였다. 해양 변수 중에는 염분 및 해빙 변동이 모델간 가장 큰 편차를 보였다. 심층 해역, 남극해, 서안 경계 해역을 포함한 연안역에서는 공통적으로 객관 분석장과 동화 모델간의 편차가 크게 나타났다. 국내에서도 독립적으로 운영되고 있는 해양 자료 동화 모델간의 비교 분석 프로그램이 추진되어, 향후 관련된 국제 공동 연구에 활발히 참여할 수 있는 기회가 확대되기를 기대한다.

Variability of sea surface temperature (SST) in the Japan/East Sea (JES) was studied using complex empirical orthogonal function (CEOF) analysis. Two daily data sets were analyzed: (1) New Generation 0.05o-gridded SST from Tohoku University, Japan (July 2002-July 2006), and (2) 0.25o-gridded SST from the Japan Meteorological Agency (October 1993-November 2006). Linkages with wind stress curl were revealed using 6-h 1o-gridded surface zonal and meridional winds from ancillary data of the Sea- WiFS Project, a special National Centers for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) product (1998-2005). SST anomalies (SSTA) were obtained by removing the seasonal signal, estimated as the leading mode of the CEOF decomposition of the original SST. Leading CEOF modes of residual SSTA obtained from both data sets were consistent with each other and were characterized by annual, semiannual, and quasi-biennial time scales estimated with 95% statistical significance. The Semiannual Mode lagged 2 months behind the increased occurrence of the anticyclonic (AC) wind stress curl over the JES. Links to dynamic processes were investigated by numerical simulations using an oceanic model. The suggested dynamic forcings of SSTA are the inflow of subtropical water into the JES through the Korea Strait, divergence in the surface layer induced by Ekman suction, meridional shifts of the Subarctic Front in the western JES, AC eddy formation, and wind-driven strengthening/weakening of large-scale currents. Events of west-east SSTA movement were identified in July-September. The SSTA moved from the northeastern JES towards the continental coast along the path of the westward branch of the Tsushima Current at a speed consistent with the advective scale.

The present study aims to derive and compare narrow and broad bandwidths of ocean color sensor’s algorithms for the study of monitoring highly dynamic coastal oceanic environmental parameters using high-resolution imagery acquired from Multi-spectral Camera (MSC) on KOMPSAT-2. These algorithms are derived based on a large data set of remote sensing reflectances ($R_{rs}$) generated by using numerical model that relates $b_b/(a + b_b)$ to $R_{rs}$ as functions of inherent optical properties, such as absorption and backscattering coefficients of six water components including water, phytoplankton (chl), dissolved organic matter (DOM), suspended sediment (SS) concentration, heterotropic organism (he) and an unknown component, possibly represented by bubbles or other particulates unrelated to the first five components. The modeled $R_{rs}$ spectra appear to be consistent with in-situ spectra collected from Korean waters. As Kompsat-2 MSC has similar spectral characteristics with Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper (TM), the model generated $R_{rs}$ values at 2 ㎚ interval are converted to the equivalent remote sensing reflectances at MSC and TM bands. The empirical relationships between the spectral ratios of modeled $R_{rs}$ and chlorophyll concentrations are established in order to derive algorithms for both TM and MSC. Similarly, algorithms are obtained by relating a single band reflectance (band 2) to the suspended sediment concentrations. These algorithms derived by taking into account the narrow and broad spectral bandwidths are compared and assessed. Findings suggest that there was less difference between the broad and narrow band relationships, and the determination coefficient $(r^2)$ for log-transformed data [ N = 500] was interestingly found to be $(r^2)$ = 0.90 for both TM and MSC. Similarly, the determination coefficient for log-transformed data [ N = 500] was 0.93 and 0.92 for TM and MSC respectively. The algorithms presented here are expected to make significant contribution to the enhanced understanding of coastal oceanic environmental parameters using Multi-spectral Camera.
