Coastal sand dunes are dynamic and fragile buffer zones of sand and vegetation where the following three characteristics can be found: large quantities of sand, persistent wind capable of moving sand, and suitable locations for sand to accumulate. The functional properties of coastal sand dunes include the roles in sand storage, underground freshwater storage, coastal defense, and ecological environment space, among others. Recently, however, the integrity of coastal dune systems has been threatened by development, including sand extraction for the construction industry, military usage, conversion to golf courses, the building of seawalls and breakwaters, and recreational facility development. In this paper, we examined the development mechanisms and structural/format types of coastal sand dunes, as well as their functions and value from the perspective of coastal engineering based on reviews of previous researches and a case study of a small coastal sand dune in the Nakdong river estuary. Existing data indicate that there are a total of 133 coastal sand dunes in South Korea, 43 distributed on the East Sea coast (32 in the Gangwon area, and 11 in Gyeongsangbuk-do), 60 on the West Sea coast (4 in Incheon and Gyeonggi-do, 42 in Ghungcheongnam-do, 9 in Jellabuk-do, and 5 in Jellanam-do), and 30 on the South Sea coast (16 in Jellanam-do, 2 in Gyeongsangnam-do, and 12 in Jeju).

Fishes were caught by a set net in the coastal waters off Yosu, Korea from April to October, 2001, and seasonal variation of abundance and species composition were studied. Fifty two species were identified as fish $(89\%)\;cephalopods\;(10\%)\;and\;crustaeans\;(1\%).$ Of the fishes Engraulis japonicus, Trachurus japonicus and Trichiurus lepturus were dominant species representing $64.1\%$ in total number of individuals. The number of species was high in spring and low in summer; number of individuals was high in spring and low in autumn. The diversity index (H') was 0.4-0.7 The abundance and species composition fluctuated seasonally. Occurrence of the various stages of fishes indicated that Scombia japonicus, T. japonicus and E japonicus utilized in the area as spawning ground, Conger myriaster larvae, Ammodytes personatus and Seriola quinqueradiata as nursery ground, and T. lepturus and Ilisha elongata as spawning and nursery grounds.

To investigate a proper sampling method for anchovy eggs and larvae in coastal waters of the South Sea, replicated samplings were made by different towing methods with different sampling gears and compared in terms of abundance and length composition. There was no significant difference in abundance in samples from vertical and oblique tows with a ring net. The abundance by replicated vertical tows with a ring net was not significantly different, but significant difference in abundance among sampling stations were found. The ring net sampled anchovy eggs in significantly greater numbers than collected by a NORPAC net, but both gears were not effective in obtaining quantitative samples of anchovy larvae larger than 3 mm. Therefore, samples by vertical tows with a ring net during the day at various stations is more efficient at estimating the density of anchovy eggs in an area compared to replicated sampling at a single station.

Subsurface Internal Waves (IWs) can be detected in satellite images as periodic alternating brighter/darker stripes. It is known that there are two types of IWs - depression type and elevation type - depending on the water depth in stratified oceans. In this study, we have quantitatively verified the process of converting polarity from depression waves to elevation waves using ERS-2 SAR images acquired over the northern South China Sea. We simulated the evolution of IWs near a turning point with a numerical model for internal wave propagation. The simulation results near the turning point clearly showed us not only a conversion process of IWs from depression to elevation waves, but also a similar wave pattern with the observed SAR image. We also simulated SAR intensity variation near the turning point. The upper layer currents were computed at regular intervals using the numerical model, as the IWs were passing through the turning point. Then, an integrated hydrodynamic-electromagnetic model was used for simulating SAR intensity profiles from the upper layer currents at each position. The simulated SAR intensity profiles at each position were compared with the observed SAR intensities.

The current system of the East China Sea, a marginal sea in the northwest Pacific, has a seasonal variation. The Changjiang Diluted Water, Chinese coastal water in the East China Sea, has different seasonal paths. It flows southward along the Chinese coast within a narrow band in winter and does northeastward the Korea/Tsushima Strait in summer, which has been a subject to many researchers. In particular, low salinity in the South Sea of Korea in 1996 and 1998 was in discord with the Changjiang River discharge and the Changjiang Diluted Water seems to play an important role in occurrence of red tide in the South Sea of Korea in 1997 and on the contrary, disappearance in the next year. These facts suggested that the Changjiang Diluted Water does not flow along the same path in every summer. According to the analyses for path of the Changjiang Diluted Water using ocean color images by SeaWiFS and salinity observations by shipboard CTD in August for recent years, the Changjiang Diluted Water in summer flowed within the range of direction from southeastward to north-northeastward anticlockwise. However, the Changjiang Diluted Water flowed northeastward toward Jeju Island of Korea for the most part. It is necessary to examine the influence of major factors on path variability of the CDW in summer such as surface wind, the Changjiang River discharge and background current.

광양만에 있어 식물플랑크톤증식의 제한영양염을 검토하기 위하여 염분, 용존무기질소, 용존무기인, DIN/DIP비 및 현장식물플랑크톤을 이용한 생물실험을 하였다. 조사는 강우량이 적은 1999년 11월과강우량이 많은 2000년 9월에 하였다. 강우량이 적은 1999년 11월의 경우, 광양만의 염분, 용존무기질소, 용존무기인, DIN/DIP비의 평균값은 각각 29.92 psu, 13.59 ${\mu}M$, 3.41${\mu}M$, 4.14이었으며,강우량이 많은 2000년 』월의 경우에는 각각 24.62 psu, 27.77 ${\mu}M$, 2.82 ${\mu}M$, 9.79로 나타났다. 이번 조사에서 용존무기질소, 용존무기인의 농도가 득량만, 여자만, 가막만 또는 체서피크만이나 히로시마만보다 높게 나타났으며, 특히 용존무기인의 경우 최고 8배 높게 나타났다. 질소의 주요 유입원으로는 섬진강으로부터 담수유입으로 인한 공급과 산업폐수의 유입으로 생각되었으며, 인의 경우 담수유입보다는 광양만내에 강력한 점오염원이 있어 그 점오염원으로부터 유입되는 것으로 추측되었다. 강우량이 적은 1999년 11월의 식물플랑크톤증식의 제한영양염은 질소였다. 강우량이 많은 2000년 9월의 경우에도 1999년 11월과 같이 질소가제한영양염으로 나타났다. 그 이유로는 질소에 비해 상대적으로 인의 농도가 높은 점오염원에 의해 많은 양의 인이 유입되었기 때문으로 생각된다. 광양만에서 그 제한영양염은 상당히 많은 양의 담수가 유입될 경우 섬진강 하구의 일부지역에서는 인으로 나타날 가능성이 있으나, 섬진강 하구을 제외한 광양만, 여수동부연안 및 돌산도 동부연안해역은 높은 농도의 용존무기인에 의해 많은 양의 담수가 유입될 경우에도 질소가 제한영양염으로 나타날 것으로 추정되었다.

This paper investigates summer precipitation change in East Asia according to switching surface boundary condition over South Korea and Shantung. Simulations are carried out by ECHO-G/S for 20 years (1980-1999). Surface condition over both areas in ECHO-G/S is represented by ocean (OCN experiment). In OCN experiment, the summer precipitation is considerably underestimated around the Korean peninsula (the dry region) and overestimated over the eastern Tibetan Plateau (the wet region). It may be related that the lack of the heat sources from the unrealistically prescribed land-sea mask weakens northward expansion of rainband and the development of convective precipitation. Moreover the simulated rainband retreats before June in connection with the early genesis of summer monsoon circulation. The systematic bias of the summer precipitation over the dry and wet regions are reduced comparing with the OCN experiment when the land-sea masks over South Korea and Shantung are realistically considered as land (LND experiment). These improvements can be explained by the thermodynamical dissimilarity between land and ocean. Enhanced warming by switching the areas from sea to land has led to develop the thermal low over Yellow Sea with the cyclonic circulation. Thus, this cyclonic circulation supports moistures from the south to the dry region and blocks to the wet region. The heat transport from the land surface to atmosphere plays a key role in the developing convective precipitation in local scale and maintaining the precipitation and the rainband. Therefore, this results indicate that the design of the realistic land-sea distribution is required for the accurate simulation of the regional precipitation.
