Gamcheon Bay has complicated and unique flow pattern which is affected by topography characteristics of a semi-closed bay and warm water discharge from the power plant located at the bay. It is very important to consider warm water discharge with tidal period and wind effects, which are mainly acting on the surface flow patterns in Gamcheon Bay. The results of observation show as follows; i) Because Gamcheon bay has much elongated shape to the north-south direction and narrow entrance with two separated breakwaters, the flow is very weak inside the bay. ii) The main flow path is at the west side of the bay. The direction of flood current is northward along the west side of the bay and the direction of ebb current is southward along the west side of the bay. The southward direction of warm water discharge has curved to the west side of the bay. iii)At the period of flood current for neap tide, the flow direction is southward in the bay, which is thought by the effects of warm water discharge. But at the bottom layer, the effects of tidal current reached to the middle of the bay, and showed features like eddy. iv) The wind effect is very strong, especially, prominent in the west and east side of the bay.

In the persent study, we conducted numerical experiments using a three-dimensional baroclinic equation model and a Lagrangian method for clarifying the hydrodynamics in Osaka Bay under the yearly mean discharge and visualizing the behaviour of particles of different settling velocity discharged from Yodo River and sedimentation pattern on the sea bottom. Particles are transported from the Yodo River to the south direction by the residual circulation of the bay head at the first stage, and after most of suspended solids particles are settled down at any layer and returned in the south-east coastal area through bottom layers by an estuarine circulation. The results show that estuarine circulation plays an important part of suspended solids transportation in the Osaka Bay.

Numerical experiments are conducted using a three-dimensional baroclinic equation model and a Lagrangian method for clarifying the effect of th settling velocity on the suspended solids diffusion caused by the dredging and the reclamination works. Diffusion characteristics of the neutral particles and the weighting particles is experimented by the Lagrangian particles trajectory model, The results show that the diffusion characteristics of the suspended solids is effected by the settling velocity classified by the particles size in the density layered semi-closed bay. To estimate exactly the diffusion characteristics of the suspended solids and the contaminant with weight the three-dimensional baroclinic equation model and the three-dimensional Lagrangian particles trajectory model considering the settling velocity of the particle in the density layered semi-closed bay must be used.

본 연구에서는 환형수조를 이용한 일련의 퇴적실험을 수행하여, 국내 최초로 자연 점착성 퇴적물 시료에 대한 퇴적 매개변수가 정량적으로 산정되었다. 퇴적실험을 위해 광양만이 대표 해역으로 선정되어 시료가 채취되었으며, 퇴적실험은 초기농도가 동일한 조건에서 바닥전단응력의 크기만을 변화시키면서 총 18회의 실험이 수행되었다. 퇴적실험결과, 광양만 갯벌 점착성 퇴적물의 최소전단응력 ${\tau}_{bmin}$과 퇴적률 매개변수들 ${\sigma}_1$, $({\tau}_b^*-1)_{50}$은 각각 $0.11N/m^2$, 0.68, 0.85로 산정되었으며, 과거 타 연구결과와의 비교검토를 통하여 본 실험에서 도출된 결과의 타당성이 입증되었다.

본 연구는 해수유동모델을 이용하여 하계 한국 남해안 양식장 부근에서 수온의 시 공간적인 분포를 파악하였다. 한국 남해 조류의 흐름은 창조시 서향, 낙조시 동향하며, 쓰시마 난류의 흐름은 50 m보다 깊어지는 외양에서 연안에 비해 강하게 동북향 하였다. 조류, 바람, 쓰시마 난류 및 실시간 수온을 고려한 해수유동에서 하계 수온의 분포는 반폐쇄성 해역에서 $26{\sim}28^{\circ}C$로 높게 나타났으며, 외양으로 갈수록 낮아져 $18{\sim}22^{\circ}C$로 나타났다. 반폐쇄성 내만의 형태를 가지는 해역의 해수교환량을 계산한 결과 광양만 $10,331m^3/sec$, 여수-가막만 $16,935m^3/sec$, 그리고 거제-한산만은 $13,454m^3/sec$로 나타났다. 해수교환량이 적은 해역일수록 수온이 비교적 높게 나타난다.

This study was carried out to survey the pollution of nonylphenol (NP) in surface sediments around Gwangyang bay and Yeosu sound. NP was suspected chemicals as endocrine disruption. Gwangyang bay is located on the mid south coast of Korea. It is a semi-closed bay which Yeosu petrochemical industrial complex, POSCO (Pohang Steel Company) and Gwangyang container harbor are there. The surface sediments were collected at 15 stations with gravity corer at October, 1999, February, May and August, 2000. Also, the stream and intertidal sediment were collected at 5 sites at August, 2000. Concentrations of NP in surface sediments were in the range of 6.89 to 202.70 ng/g dry wt.. Seasonal range (mean value) of NP is 13.98 to 30.48 (23.46) ng/g dry wt. at October, 10.35 to 54.91 (28.10) ng/g dry wt. at February, 29.05 to 202.70 (82.32) ng/g dry wt. at May and 6.98 to 83.40 (25.37) ng/g dry wt. at August. NP was seasonally fluctuated, and the highest mean value and range was detected at May, 2000. NP was highly distributed in the inner part of Gwangyang bay than Yeosu sound. Concentrations of NP in stream and intertidal sediments showed the highest value in downstream near Yeosu petrochemical industrial complex and Yondung stream. It suggests that the source of NP is industrial wastewater and municipal sewage.

2012년 8월 1일부터 7일까지 한국 남해 연안의 목포에서 부산에 이르는 37개의 정점에서 채집된 Acartia속 요각류의 공간 분포 양상에 대하여 분석하였다. A. erythraea는 용존산소가 2 mg L^-1 이하인 반 폐쇄적인(가막만, 마산만)만에서 높은 출현 개체수를 보였다. A. sinjiensis는 엽록소-a 농도가 2 ㎍ L^-1 이상인 반 폐쇄적인 만에서 높은 출현 개체수를 보였다. A. ohtsukai는 수온 26℃ 이상, 염분 30 이하일 때 높은 출현 개체수를 보였다. A. hongi, A. hudsonica는 수온이 27℃ 이하, 용존산소 5 mg L^-1 이상인 해역에서 출현하였다. 이러한 결과 환경요인이 여름철 남해 연안에 출현하는 Acartia속 요각류의 공간적 분포에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 시사하고 있다.

We investigated seasonal changes in the mesozooplankton community structure in November 2006 and February, May, and August 2007 at 12 stations in the semi-enclosed Muan Bay, Korea. Forty taxa were sampled, with an average abundance ranging from 1,459 to 20,078 indiv. $m^{-3}$; the highest abundance was detected in August 2007, and the lowest in February 2007. Acartia omorii, A. hudsonica, A. ohtsukai, Bestiolina coreana, Calanopia sp., Paracalanus parvus s. l., Cirripedia larvae, Decapoda larvae, and Gastropoda larvae were the most abundant taxa detected. The species diversity of the mesozooplankton was high around the inner regions in August 2007 but it was relatively low in November 2006. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) revealed significant differences in the structure of mesozooplankton community among the seasons. Canonical correspondence analysis (CCA), performed to examine the relationships among dominant taxa, stations, and environmental variables, showed that most species of copepods were positively correlated with temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a, and COD concentration. Our results suggested that the mesozooplankton community structure observed in this study might be affected partly by the seasonal changes in environmental variables, such as the status of the sluice gates (i.e., open or closed) and the in situ production of resting eggs by major copepods.

Effect of environmental factors on the seasonal variations of zooplankton communities was investigated in the semi-closed Yeoja Bay, Korea from February, April to August, and November 2021. Out of a total 49 species of zooplankton were collected with a predominant of neritic copepods (mainly Paracalanus orientalis, Acartia omorii, Acartia ohtsukai, Centropages abdominalis, Ditrichocorycaeus affinis, and Oithona sp.), accounting for 58.9% of the total abundance of zooplankton. The diversity indices indicated a relatively highest in July, suggesting that diversity is influenced by seasonal temperature, N. scintillans, and neritic copepods species. A cluster analysis with non-metric multidimensional scaling revealed four groups of zooplankton communities. The February sample clustered into Group A, having the lowest mean total abundance and species diversity of zooplankton, consisting mainly of N. scintillans located the whole region. Cluster Group B from the spring season (April to May) and contained the species diversity with some neritic copepods. Cluster Group C from the summer season (June to August) mainly comprised P. orientalis, A. ohtsukai, Oithona sp., and hydromedusae. Cluster Group D from the autumn season (November) mainly comprised P. orientalis, Temora discaudata. Redundancy analysis indicated that abundance is positively correlated with temperature, salinity, and pico chlorophyll-a concentrations. This study showed that planktonic larvae (such as branchyura larvae) and some copepods (including A. omorii, A. ohtsukai, C. sinicus, and C. abdominalis) were significantly vulnerable to zooplankton community of temperature, salinity, and pico chlorophyll-a concentrations.
