  • Field measurements of directional waves were carried out during the summer of 2002 at two coastal sites in water of finite depth. A couple of general purpose instruments were used employing acoustic Doppler technology. The aim of the study was to investigate the spatial behavior of the directional movement of waves as they come ashore. In total,74 tests were carried out during which sea states of low to moderate intensity were recorded. A great number of these runs displayed bimodal characteristics of the spreading function at high frequencies. It was found that in general, the frequency-integrated directional width tends to broaden as the water shoals and when refraction effects are negligible. This is attributed to wave-wave interactions that become pronounced in shallow water. The same directional width showed, also, a tendency to increase with increasing peak frequency of the sea state spectrum. The behavior of the kurtosis of the spreading function was also examined. It was found that for higher frequencies this index tends to increase in wave spectra above a certain sea severity threshold.

  • A on-line SPE (solid phase extraction)-HPLC preconcentration method was developed for the determination of phenolic compounds at trace levels in environmental water sample. XAD-4 and Dowex 1-X8 were used as sorbent in the on-line SPE-HPLC method for the selective enrichment of nine phenolic compounds, which are included in the priority pollutants list of the US EPA. Also alumina prefiltering considerably reduced the amount of interfering peaks due to humic substances that could accumulated due to the preconcentration step and prevent quantification of polar phenolic compounds in environmental water samples. This method was used to determine the phenolic compounds in tap and river water and superiority to the US EPA 625 method in its enrichment factor, pretreatment time, recoveries, and detection limit. The limits of detection were in the range of $0.3-0.9\;{\mu}g/L$ in tap water sample.

  • 동해 중부 극전선역에 있어서 동계와 하계에 각종 수괴의 수직분포특성과 이 수괴들의 화학적성 질에 대해 연구하였다. 동계의 경우, 수온약층은 북쪽 바깥 정점들이 남쪽 연안 정점들에 비해 더 깊은 수층에 존재하고, 이 약층의 상부에는 대마난류수가, 하부수층에는 동해고유수가 분포하고 있다. 그러나, 하계에는 수직적으로 대마난류 표층수, 중층수, 북한한류수 및 동해고유수가 분포하고, 동해고유수는 동계보다 다소 상부수층에 존재한다. 하계에 T-S diagram으로는 북한한류수 계통의 수괴, 대마난류 중층수 및 동해고유수의 혼합수를 구분할 수 없었으나, $T-O_2$ diagram으로는 구분이 가능했다. 한편, 동계 수온과 AOU는 좋은 역의 직선 관계를 보이며, AOU의 수직분포는 생물$\cdot$화학적과정보다는 주로 물리적 혼합과정에 의해 결정됨을 시사한다. 하계에는 대마난류 표층수에서 AOU값이 가장 낮고, 동해고유수에서 가장 높으며, 북한한류수 및 대마난류 중층수의 AOU값은 위 두수괴 사이의 값을 보인다. 그러나, 북한한류수괴의 해수는 대마난류 중층수보다 용존산소 농도가 약 1-2ml/l 높은데도, 이 두수괴의 생물$\cdot$화학적 산소요구량(AOU)은 비슷하였다. 일반외양수의 경우와 같이, 인산소은 AOU와 정의 직선관계이지만, 그 기울기 $(\Delta P/\Delta AOU)$ 값은 외양역의 $1/3\mu g-at/ml$ 보다 다소 작으며, 이는 표충수중 용존산소가 아래충으로 분자확산되어 AOU값이 낮아지기 매문이라고 생각된다. 특히, 하계 100m 이심충에서는 그 비값이 $l/2.0 \mu g-at/ml$ 으로 훨씬 낮으며, 그 이유는 비교적 낮은 AOU값을 보이는 북한한류계통의 해수가 중층(100-200m)에 나타나기 때문이다. 한편, 질산염과 인산소은 동$\cdot$ 하계 모두 전 정점에 대해 상관 계수 r=0.93 이상으로 좋은 정의 직선관계를 보인다.

  • The seawater exchange breakwater equipped with an oscillating water channel and water transmitting pipes has a very spectacular function that seawater supply can be greatly increased due to the upsurge of the water surface inside the channel at resonance condition which can be reached when the incident wave period becomes close to the natural period of the channel. The variations of the water level and period inside the channel are very important factors in enhancing the efficiency of sea water exchange, especially when designing the breakwater cross-section in shallow water zone which requires longer resonance period with the elongated horizontal projection of the channel. In the present study, a hydraulic experiment was performed varying the length of the oscillating channel, and the resonance periods and water surface variations are analyzed in terms of water transmission through the pipes.

  • 2000년 2월에 남태평양에서 수심 200m까지 수온, 염분, 용존산소, 영양염, 엽록소, 일차생산성의 수직분포를 조사하였다. 연구해역(남위 $24^{\circ}{\sim}41^{\circ}$, 서경 $80^{\circ}{\sim}168^{\circ}$)은 물리적으로 크게 두 해역으로 나누어진다. 서경 $110^{\circ}$을 경계로 동쪽해역에서는 수심 200m이하의 중층수가 표층으로 활발히 용승하였고, 서쪽해역에서는 중층수의 용승이 거의 일어나지 않았다. 따라서 해수의 화학조성도 다르게 나타났다. 동쪽해역에서는 영양염 농도가 높은 중층수의 용승에 의해 표층 100m에서 질산염+아질산염과 인산염 농도가 서쪽해역에 비해 상당히 높게 관측되었지만, 중층수의 용승에도 불구하고 규산염 농도는 오히려 서쪽해역보다 낮았다. 영양염 중에서 식물플랑크톤의 일차생산성에 영향을 미치는 주요 원소도 해역에 따라 달랐다. 동쪽해역에서는 규소에 의해 일차생산성이 가장 큰 영향을 받는 반면, 서쪽해역에서는 질소가 일차생산성에 가장 큰 영향을 미쳤다. 중층수의 용승에 의해 영양염 농도의 큰 차이에도 불구하고, 식물플랑크톤의 일차생산성은 두 해역이 서로 비슷한 값을 보였으며, 수심 200m까지 합한 엽록소 총량은 오히려 동쪽해역에 비해 서쪽해역에서 2배 가량 높게 측정되었다.

  • The ventilation theory developed by Luyten, Pedlosky and Stommel (1983) is applied to the East Sea to understand the general circulation pattern of the Intermediate Water, especially the ventilated circulation beneath the Tsushima Warm Current. The original model is slightly modified such that it takes the inflow-outflow of the Tsushima Current into consideration. Results of the model indicate that for sufficiently strong Ekman pumping, the Intermediate Water circulates cyclonically by ventilation. The Intermediate Water subducts beneath the Tsushima Warm Water through the western boundary layer. Off the western boundary layer, it turns northward, outcrops to the north by passing the polar front and continues to flow northward until it finally is absorbed by the northern boundary layer. This result seems to be compatible with some recent observations. Over the ventilated area, the transport of the Tsushima Current is negligible and most transport occurs in the shadow area where the Intermediate layer is motionless indicating that, over the deep motionless layer, the two-layered vertical structure under consideration becomes substantially single-layered.

  • Using data from Argo floats collected in the Southern Ocean, we describe water mass prop erties and flow fields at intermediate levels (1000m and 2000m levels). Water mass properties from Argo floats, which are consistent with those from previous hydrographic surveys, reflect the movement of the floats well even without quality control on the Argo data. Since the flow fields from the Argo floats do not cover the entire Southern Ocean, we could not obtain a general circulation pattern, especially at the 2000m level. We, however, can confirm the general eastward tendency due to ACC largely following the topography.

  • The initiation of Cochlodinium polykrikoides blooming in the South Sea of Korea occurs in the sea near Naro-Do in late August. In this paper, the relationships of this annual occurrence with the environmental conditions are presented. In early summer, the winds in the sea near Naro-Do are southwesterly and the upwelling occurs in the near-shore area. The favorable winds to the upwelling are relaxed in August and the downwelling favorable northeasterly winds set in around late August. The change of wind direction causes the onshore transport of warm-and-fresh off-shore water into the sea near Naro-Do and a front between near-shore water and off·shore water is formed. Along the front, downwelling occurs and the environmental conditions for the diatom become unfavorable. When the typhoon and storm bring well-mixed East China Sea water into the sea near Naro-Do in September, the conditions for the dinoflagellates become unfavorable and blooming of C. polykrikoides disappears.

  • FTIR spectroscopy has been employed to investigate the variation of anion-water hydrogen bonding in 1-butyl 3-methyl imidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim][$BF_4$]) ionic liquid caused by addition of organic co-solvents with various polarities. The variation was estimated by probing band shape and intensity of the OH stretching vibration of trace water present in ionic liquid at $3400-3800cm^{-1}$. The presence of polar aprotic co-solvent in ionic liquid dramatically reduces the absorptivity of the OH stretch band, indicating that the co-solvent changes the nature of anion-water hydrogen bond drastically, which might be responsible for the reduction of the viscosity of ionic liquid in the presence of the co-solvent.

  • Explicitly spatially distributed and reliable data on industrial water demand is very much important for both policy makers and researchers in order to carry a region-specific analysis of water resources management. However, such type of data remains scarce particularly in underdeveloped and developing countries. Current research is limited in using different spatially available socio-economic, climate data and geographical data from different sources in accordance to predict industrial water demand at finer resolution. This study proposes a random forest regression (RFR) model to predict the industrial water demand at 0.50× 0.50 spatial resolution by combining various features extracted from multiple data sources. The dataset used here include National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP)/Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) night-time light (NTL), Global Power Plant database, AQUASTAT country-wise industrial water use data, Elevation data, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Road density, Crop land, Population, Precipitation, Temperature, and Aridity. Compared with traditional regression algorithms, RF shows the advantages of high prediction accuracy, not requiring assumptions of a prior probability distribution, and the capacity to analyses variable importance. The final RF model was fitted using the parameter settings of ntree = 300 and mtry = 2. As a result, determinate coefficients value of 0.547 is achieved. The variable importance of the independent variables e.g. night light data, elevation data, GDP and population data used in the training purpose of RF model plays the major role in predicting the industrial water demand.
