  • 부유사량을 알기위해 측정하는 방법은 여러 가지가 있다. 대표적인 방법으로는 측정기기를 이용하여 수심에 따라 일정하게 시료를 채취하는 방법과 일정 수위에서 포인트 개념으로 시료를 채취하는 방법이 있다. 이 측정법들은 일반적으로 수심에 따른 유속과 부유사농도가 다르게 나타나기 때문에 오차를 최소화하기위해 측정하는 방법들이다. 홍수 시 부유사량 농도는 유역특성, 하상재료, 강우특성 등에 따라 부유사농도가 다양하게 나타나지만 측정현장에서 발생하는 부유사농도는 사람의 시각적으로 판단 할 수 없을 정도의 황토빛 흐름이 발생한다. 또한, 여러 안전상 문제점이 발생하기도 하며 수위 상승부에서는 수위가 급격히 증가하는 현상을 보여 측정에 어려움이 발행하는 등 예상할 수 없는 여러 문제점이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 부유사량 채취 시 표면채취법과 수심적분법을 비교 검토하여 차이점을 분석하고 부유사량 산정 및 측정지점의 특성을 확인하여 보았다.

  • Acoustics are increasingly regarded as a remote-sensing tool that provides the basis for classifying and mapping ocean resources including seabed classification. It has long been understood that details about the character of the seabed (roughness, sediment type, grain-size distribution, porosity, and material density) are embedded in the acoustical echoes from the seabed. This study developed a sophisticated yet easy-to-use technique to discriminate seabed characteristics using a split beam echosounder. Acoustic survey was conducted in Tongyeong waters, South Korea in June 2018, and the verification of acoustic seabed classification was made by the Van Veen grab sampler. The acoustic scattering signals extracted the seabed hardness and roughness components as well as various seabed features. The seabed features were selected using the principal component analysis, and the seabed classification was performed by the K-means clustering. As a result, three seabed types such as sand, mud, and shell were discriminated. This preliminary study presented feasible application of a sounder to classify the seabed substrates. It can be further developed for characterizing marine habitats on a variety of spatial scales and studying the ecological characteristic of fishes near the habitats.

  • The sedimentary environment and sediment were surveyed at the West-Northern site of Chagwi-do nearby Jeju Island for the design of the embedded suction anchor system of 10 MW-class floating wave-offshore wind hybrid power generation system. According to the classification scheme of Chough et al.[2002], the echo type of the seismic profiles using the chirp III was classified. As a results, the center and west-northern area of survey site were proved to be type I-3 where subbottom layer with thickness 5~15 m exists under the flat seafloor. On the other hands, the east-southern area were regarded to be type I-1, I-2 and III-1 where seafloor reflection is much stronger than type I-3. Also, the physical tests (unit weight, moisture content, grain size, liquid limit, specific gravity) were performed with samples taken from 8 fixed locations. It is found that the sand (SP), the sand blended with silt (SM) and the mixture of SP-SM are distributed uniformly on the survey area.

  • 하천 유사량 특성 분석은 하천유역 내의 수리구조물 설계 및 유지관리, 하천개수 및 하도의 안정, 홍수터 관리, 저수지 설계 및 운영 등 수자원 개발 및 관리를 위한 하천계획의 필요한 요소 중 하나이며 현장 측정에서 분석까지 정밀한 일련의 과정을 통해서 알아낼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 6개 지점(여주, 왜관, 진동, 공주, 나주, 구례2)에 대해 유사량 특성 분석을 수행하였다. 부유사량은 강우가 집중되는 홍수기(왕복수심적분법; D-74측정장비 / 표면채취법)를 중심으로 측정하였고 하상토의 경우는 Grab Sampler(60L), 선격자법 등을 이용하여 홍수기 전 후로 2회 채취하였다. 채취된 시료는 특성에 따라 여과법(부유사농도), BW관법(부유사입도분포), 체분석법(하상토입도분포)으로 분석하였으며, 이를 통해 산정된 평균 부유사농도, Oden Curve와 입도분포곡선 및 수리량(수위, 유속, 측정수심, 수면폭, 수면경사, 수온)등의 자료를 이용하여 총유사량(Modified Einstein 방법)을 추정하였다. 본 연구 결과는 다음과 같다.: 1) 유량-부유사량 및 총유사량 관계: 유량-부유사량의 관계에 있어 대체적으로 일관된 경향성이 나타났으며 총유사량과의 관계 역시 부유사량과 비슷한 경향성을 보임. 일부 성과의 경우, 총유사량과의 관계에 있어 Modified Einstein 조건의 불충족(자갈하상재료 또는 저유속)으로 부유사량과 동일추정이거나 추정불가 및 이상치가 나타남. 2) 유량-부유사량 특성: 전체적으로 루프현상을 보이며 초기 강우 사상에서는 더 많은 유사량이 발생하는데 이는 초기 강우에 의해 유사 이송이 활발하게 이루어지는 일반적인 특성임. 또한 수위 상승-하강에 따른 부유사량 자료가 더욱더 확보된다면 수위 상승과 하강부로 구분하여 분석하는 것도 의의가 있을 것으로 판단됨. 3) 유량-유사량관계식 개발: 개발된 관계식은 총유사량이 아닌 부유사량으로 개발되었으며, 측정성과들 간의 상관계수가 0.9723(구례2 지점) ~ 0.8490(나주 지점)으로 분석됨. 또한 개발된 관계식에 대한 신뢰도 분석을 실시하지 않았기 때문에 적용 시에는 주의가 요구됨.

  • 본 연구에서는 7개 지점(여주, 적성, 왜관, 진동, 공주, 구례2, 나주)에 대해 유사량 특성 분석을 수행하였다. 부유사량은 강우가 집중되는 홍수기와 이의 전 후시기인 저 평수기(2회)로 나누어 왕복수심적분법(D-74)으로 측정하였고, 하상토는 BM-54, Grab Sampler(60 L), 선격자 등을 이용하여 홍수기 전 후로 2회 채취하였다. 채취된 시료는 그 목적에 따라 여과법(부유사농도), BW관법(부유사입도분포), 체분석법(하상토입도분포)으로 분석하였고, 그 결과로 작성된 평균 부유사농도 및 Oden Curve와 입도분포곡선과 수리량(수위, 유속, 측정수심, 수면폭, 수면경사, 수온)등의 자료를 이용하여 총유사량(미측정구간의 유사량 포함)을 추정(실측+계산: Modified Einstein)하였다. 총유사량 추정시, 세류사량을 제외한 부유사량을 적용하였다. 유량-부유사농도와 부유사량 및 총유사량 관계에 대한 결과는 다음과 같다: 1) 하나의 강우사상의 수위 상승-첨두-하강에 대한 측정성과는 대체적으로 Loop 형태를 보였고 이로 인해 일부 지점에서 측정성과들 간의 산포도가 다소 크게 나타났으며 수위 하강 때보다 상승시 초기 탁도의 증가 현상으로 부유사농도가 더 높은 것을 볼 수 있었다. 2) 유량-부유사농도, 부유사량, 총유사량 관계에서 왜관과 공주 지점의 경우, 첨두 수위에서 값들의 최고치를 보였고 나머지 지점들은 첨두 수위의 앞선 측정 수위에서 최고치를 보였다. 이는 강우사상별, 강우강도, 댐 방류량, 수위 상승-하강부, 유량에 따른 부유사농도와 부유사량의 특성이 각각 다른 점과 총유사량 추정시, 추정방법에서 추천하는 범위에서 벗어나는 자료를 적용해서 나타나는 결과로 판단된다. 여기서 유량, 수심, 하상토의 입도크기 등 자료의 범위가 추정공식들이 추천하는 범위에서 벗어나면 그 분석 결과도 서로 다르게 나타난다는 것은 그만큼 총유사량 공식의 범용성이 적다는 것을 의미한다. 이러한 점에서 때로는 자료 전체에 대해 전반적으로 양호한 결과를 보이는 공식보다는 정확한 답을 원하는 자료의 범위 내에서 예측하는 공식을 선정하는 것이 필요하다. 즉, 공식을 적용하여 유사량을 추정하고자 하는 하천이나 수로의 특성에 맞는 유사량 공식을 선정하는 것이 중요하다는 것이다.

  • Unlike the shelf sand ridges moribund in motion, nearshore sand ridges are highly mobile, sensitive to changes in ocean environments, thereby becoming of particular interest with respect to morphological changes. About 5 km off the Daesan port, the Jangan Sand Ridge has been undergoing severe subsea morphological change over the past two decades. Understanding the nature of sand ridges is critical to elucidate the causes of morphological changes. In this context, this study aims at understanding the characteristics and distribution patterns of surface sediments of the ridge and its vicinity. For this purpose, 227 sediment samples were acquired using a grab-sampler, the grain sizes being analysed by the sieve-pipette method. In addition, comparison of grain sizes in sediments between 1997 and 2021 was made in order to investigate the 25-years change in sediment composition. Surface sediments along the ridge axis are fine to medium sands with 2-3 phi in mean grain size, whereas, in the trough of ridge, the sediments are composed of gravels and muddy sandy gravels with mean sizes of -2 to -6 phi. Sediments in the crest of the ridge are well-sorted with normal distribution, on the other hand, the basal sediments are poorly-sorted and positively skewed. Along the ridge crest, the sediments are negatively skewed. From 1997 to 2021, the ridge sediments became largely coarser about 0.5 phi. Such coarsening trend in mean grain size can be explained either by elimination of fine sediments during high waves in winter or elimination of fines suspended during sand mining activities in the past. Spatial distribution pattern of surface sediments shows that ca. 30 m thick of the sand ridge itself overlies the thin relict gravels. The strong asymmetry of sand ridge, the exposure of ridge base, and reworked gravel lags suggest that Jangan sand ridge is probably sediment-deficit and hence erosive in nature at present.

  • This study investigated the community structure of macrobenthic assemblages in the Taehwa River Estuary, Ulsan, Korea. Macrobenthos were collected with a Van Veen Grab Sampler during February and November 2012. The total species number and mean density were $176species/9.6m^2$ and $1,992inds./m^2$, respectively. Polychaetes were the most dominant faunal group in terms of species (91 species) and abundance ($1,463inds./m^2$). The major dominant species were polychaetes Minuspio japonica ($609{\pm}1,221inds./m^2$), Hediste japonica ($174{\pm}318inds./m^2$), Tharyx sp.1 ($106{\pm}283inds/m^2$), Lumbrineris longifolia ($79{\pm}207inds./m^2$), bivalve Theora fragilis ($114{\pm}272inds./m^2$) and amphipod Grandidierella japonica ($88{\pm}223inds./m^2$). Based on community statistics (cluster analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) ordination), the macrobenthic community was divided into three station groups. Group I(freshwater dominated stations 2-6 with coarse sediment) was characterized by a high abundance of polychaetes Minuspio japonica, Hediste japonica, Capitella capitata, Pseudopolydora kempi, amphipods Grandidierella japonica and Apocorophium acutum. Group II (ecotone, stations 7-9 with mixed sediment) was numerically dominated by bivalve Theora fragilis, polychaetes Cirriformia tentaculata, Tharyx sp.1, Lumbrineris longifolia and Chaetozone sp. Finally, Group III (seawater dominated stations 10-12 with fine sediment) was characterized by a high density of polychaete Magelona japonica. These results showed that changes in salinity gradient and sedimentary characteristics were the main factors behind spatial changes in the macrobenthic communities of the Taehwa River Estuary.

  • In this study, we investigated the macrobenthic community structure and spatiotemporal variations in Uljin Marine Ranching area, East Sea of Korea. Macrobenthos were collected using a modified van Veen grab sampler from April to September 2013. Total number of species sampled was 345 and mean density was 5,797 ind. $m^{-2}$, both of which were dominated by the polychaetes. The most dominant species were Spiophanes bombyx (53.64%), followed by Magelona sp.1 (6.96%), Cadella semitorta (2.73%), Lumbrineris longifolia (2.16%) and Alvenius ojianus (2.08%). Cluster analysis and nMDS ordination analysis based on the Bray-Curtis similarity identified 2 station groups. The group 1 (station 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 and 9) was characterized by high abundance of the polychaetes Magelona sp.1, Lumbrineris longifolia, Scoloplos armiger, Praxillella affinis, Maldane cristata and the bivalve Alvenius ojianus, with fine sediment above 30m water depth. On the other hand, the group 2 (station 1, 4, 7 and 10) was numerically dominated by the polychaete Lumbrineriopsis sp. and the bivalve Cadella semitorta, with coarse sediment below 5m water depth. Collectively, the macrobenthic community structure showed a distinct spatial trend, which seemed to be related to the water depth and sediment composition.

  • To describe dinoflagellate cysts from Gwangyang Bay, surface sediment samples were collected at 20 sites by the TFO core sampler on 24 August 2001, in coupled with a phytoplankton investigation by surface seawater sampling. More than 17 genera, 36 species of dinoflagellate cysts were Identified from the sediment samples of Gwangyang Bay, consisting of 14 species of gonyaulacoid, 14 species of protoperidinioid, 3 species of diplopsalid, 2 species of gymnodinioid, 1 species of tuberculodinioid and calciodinellid, respectively. Cyst concentrations in Gwangyang Bay varied from 115 to 2,188 cysts/g, and generally increased toward a western part of the study area. The highest cyst concentration was observed at St. 11 located in the northwestern region with 11 genera and 19 species(2,188 cysts/g), while the lowest value with 6 genera and 9 species(115 cysts/g) was observed at St. 3 located in the center of the study area. The predominant dinoflagellate cyst was Spiniferites bulloideus, followed by Alexandrium sp., Brigantedinium simplex and S. delicatus. The motile forms of eight dinoflagellate cysts recorded in the sediment samples were also observed in the seawater: Polykrikos swartzii/kofoidii complex, Scripssiella trochoidea, Protoperidinium claudicans(cyst name: Votadinium spinosum), P. pentagonum(: Trinovantedinium capitatum capitatum), P. conicum(: Selenopemphix quanta), P. leonis(: Quinquecuspis concretum), P. conicoides(: Brigantedinium simplex), Gonyaulax spp.(: Spiniferites spp.). In this study, heterotrophic dinoflagellate cysts show the highest concentration at St. 6 where the highest density of diatoms simultaneously observed from surface water sample. This result suggests that the grazing of heterotrophic dinoflagellates on the diatoms in high concentration caused the higher concentration of heterotrophic dinoflagellate cysts.

  • Macrobenthos species-area relationship was investigated and empirical models were estimated to enable comparisons among species numbers of different sample size. The study aims to choose a way to predict cumulative relative species number (CRSN) in a given sample size Saemangeum, located in the west coast of South Korea, were visited in Apr., May and Aug.,2002 and a total of 261 biological samples from 87 stations were obtained by employing a quantitative sediment sampler, Smith-McIntyre grab and design of 3 replicates at each station. Relative species numbers (%) were baselined at sample size of 1000 $\textrm{cm}^2$ and the patterns of CRSN along the axis of sample size were measured and observed. In correlation analysis performed on a set of abiotic and biotic variables, log-transformed CRSN showed the only significant relationship with log-transformed density. Based on the result, three models, Log CRSN 2000, Log CRSN 3000 and Log CRSN were produced. The former two were devised to predict CRSN at 2000 and 3000 $\textrm{cm}^2$ respectively, and the latter at various sample sizes and samplers (all p-values were <0.001). Database from other studies (intertidal or subtidal macrofaunal samples from Kyonggi Bay and Saemangeum) were used to evaluate validity of the models. Observed CRSN below sample size of 3000 $\textrm{cm}^2$ fell under the range of 95% prediction interval and this was appeared to provide reliability of the models below that sample size.
