Tidal power can use conventional technology to extract energy from the tides. It is usually best deployed in areas where there i s a high tical range which includes Western and Southern coastal areas in Korea. However, to extract tical energy, a barrage across an estuary or a bay is to be constructed that is now very hard due to severe environmental impact on local estuary. The recent technology of application of tidal stream provides a new window to extract power minimizing the adverse environmental impact Tidal stream technology which directly exploits these currents is relatively new but is presently generating considerable interest Turbine rotors can be used to extract energy from the flows. Prototype devices currently on test in the UK include the 300kW SeaFlow turbine. In this paper, the recent technology and research on ocean tical stream power are addressed

Some features of vertical structure of the frontal interaction zone of the warm Kuroshio Current and cold Oyashio Current are known from 1930 from analysis of ship data. Ship data however do not allow carrying out the area detailed survey opposite to satellite infrared (IR) observations which possess by high spatial and temporal resolution. Analysis of NOAA AVHRR IR images demonstrated that process of formation and development of the Kuroshio warm core rings is highly complex. They are formed as a result of development of anticyclonic meanders of the warm Kuroshio waters and spin off them from the current. Joint analysis of thermal infrared images and altimetry data has also indicated that interaction of eddies to the frontal zone plays a crucial role in formation of large eddies moving to the Southern Kuril region.

The nomenclature of the sea nettle jellyfish from Korea was initially described as Dactylometra quinquecirrha Agassiz, 1862. However its identity has been questioned on the basis of its local distribution and molecular data. Here, we examined morphology and DNA sequences of nuclear rDNA using specimens collected from southern Korean waters in August 2014. Based on morphological characteristics (bell size, umbrella pattern, number of tentacles and lappets) and distribution locality, we reassign the Korean D. quinquecirrha to Chrysaora pacifica (Goette, 1886), and provide a re-description accordingly. The molecular identity of C. pacifica was further confirmed by comparison of nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences.

Circulation in the Jinhae Bay in the southern sea of Korea is examined using the Princeton Ocean Model (POM) with a free surface in a sigma coordinate, governed by primitive equations. The model well corresponds to the time series of the observed velocities at several layers obtained from a long-term mooring observation. In the residual velocity field of the model, persistent downward flow fields are formed along the central deep regions in the bay, and they are caused by bottom topographic effect. In addition, a comparison between a depth-averaged (2D) model and the POM is given, and a dependance of the results on bottom drag coefficient is also examined.

The depth and heading control of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) are considered to follow the predetermined depth and heading angle. The proposed control algorithm was based on a sliding mode control, using estimated hydrodynamic coefficients. The hydrodynamic coefficients were estimated employing conventional nonlinear observer techniques, such as sliding mode observer and extended Kalman filter. Using the estimated coefficients, a sliding mode controller was constructed for a combined diving and steering maneuver. The simulated results of the proposed control system were compared with those of a control system that employed true coefficients. This paper demonstrated the proposed control system, and discusses the mechanisms that make the system stable and accurately follow the desired depth and heading angle in the presence of parameter uncertainty.

개방경계에서의 조석 강제력과 해수의 유 ${\cdot}$ 출입에 의한 남해의 해수순환을 모의하기 위하여 수직적분된 2차원 Princeton Ocean Model을 적용하였다. 두 강제력을 동시에 고려하기 위하여 일차적으로 개방경계에서 조석을 부과하여 조류순환을 재현한 후 개방경계에서 모델이 계산한 평형상태의 조류와 관측된 해류를 동시에 고려하는 2단계 모델링기법을 채택하였다 조류의 영향이 제거된 순환모델 결과에 의하면 남해에서 정상상태의 해류분포는 강한 해류의 영향으로 조석 잔차류 분포와는 상당히 다른 양상을 보이고, 해역에 따라서는 조류만큼 강한 해류가 나타난다. 제주해협을 통해 유입된 제주해류는 해저지형의 영향으로 인해 국지적으로 연안역과 가까워지거나 멀어지면서 동향하며, 제주도 동쪽과 대마도 사이을 통하여 남해로 유입되는 대마난류는 제주도 동쪽에서 비교적 멀리 북쪽까지 북상 후 시계방향으로 회전하여 제주해류와 합쳐진다. 제주해류와 대마난류가 합쳐진 후 대한해협을 통해 동해로 유출될 때 대마도 서쪽의 수심이 깊은 골에서 해류의 강화가 일어나며, 이는 수층의 두께가 증가함으로서 생성되는 양의 상대와도를 없애주기 위한 마찰경계층이 형성되기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 개방경계에서의 조석 강제력과 해수 유출입을 개별적으로 고려할 경우 연안역에서의 해수순환은 두 강제력을 모두 고려한 경우의 순환형태와 차이를 보이고 있어 이들 두 강제력이 동시에 고려되어야 함을 뚜렷이 보여준다.

본 연구에서는 해수의 유동에 관한 3차원 수치모델을 사용하여 경기만 한강 하구에서의 염 수송에 대한 메커니즘을 분석하였다. 수치모델의 모의 기간은 갈수기와 홍수기를 포함하는 2020년 1월 20일부터 9월 20일까지 약 245일이며, 모델 결과와 관측 자료의 비교를 통해 해수의 유동 및 염분 변화에 관한 수치모델의 재현성을 입증하였다. 한강 하구에서 염의 교환이 활발하게 이루어지는 염하수로의 북단과 남단 지역에 대해서 염 수송량(FS)을 산출하였다. 염 수송에 대한 발생 기작을 세부적으로 분석하기 위해 FS를 담수 유입에 의한 염의 이류 수송(QfS0), 수평 및 수직적인 유속 차이에 의한 염의 확산 수송(FE), 조석 변동성을 가진 유속과 염분의 위상 차이에 의한 염의 수송(FT)으로 분해하였다. 갈수기와 홍수기의 월 평균 염 수송량에 의하면, 두 기간 모두 외해로부터 한강 하구 지역으로 유입되는 염의 대부분은 FT에 의하여 강화도 남부 수로를 통해 수송된다. 반면에, 한강 하구로부터 외해로 유출되는 염의 대부분은 QfS0에 의하여 영종도 동부 수로를 통해 수송된다. 한강 하구에서 평균적인 염의 수송은 갈수기 동안 FT에 의하여 한강 하구의 상류 방향으로 수송되며, 홍수기 동안 QfS0에 의하여 외해 방향으로 수송된다. 결과적으로, 경기만 한강 하구에서의 염 수송은 외해 방향의 수송을 발생시키는 QfS0와 한강 상류 방향의 수송을 발생시키는 FT의 상호작용에 의하여 결정된다.

The hydroacoustic surveys to provide the essential information for the assessment, management and utilization of fishery resources in the southern waters of Korea were carried out during five research cruises between October 1996 and October 1997 by the training ship KAYA of Pukyong National University. These hydroacoustic investigations were designed to obtain more precise estimates of the geographic distribution, absolute abundance and biological characteristics of the fishery resources, and the vertically integrated densities of fish in terms of volume backscattering strength(SV) by survey region and depth bins, such as the entire water column and the 0~ 10 m from bottom fraction, were measured separately. Hydroacoustic data were collected by using a Simrad EK 500 Scientific echo sounder operating at two frequencies of 38kHz and 120kHz and the data stored in field were later processed on a HP PC using a Simrad EP 500 echo integration and target strength analysis system. The biological compositions of echo signal were identified and sampled using a demersal trawl during daylight hours. The mean target strength to scale the echo integration data for hydroacoustic surveys was derived from the relationship between the SV and the weight of trawl catch per unit volume of the water column sampled by demersal trawls. The results obtained can be summarized as follow : 1. The mean volume backscattering strength for the entire water column in the southern waters of Korea between 1996 and 1997 were -67.2 dB and -70.9 dB at two frequencies of 38 kHz and 120 kHz , respectively, and for the bottom layer of the 0-10 m from bottom friction were -68.8 dB, -70.2 dB, respectively. That is, the volume backscattering strength for the entire water column at low frequency was higher than that at high frequency. 2. The relationship between the mean backscattering strength (〈SV〉, dB) for the depth strata of trawl hauls and the weight (C, kg/m3) per cubic meter of the catch sampled by bottom trawling in the southern waters of Korea in January and July 1997 were expressed by the following equations: 38 kHz : 〈SV〉= -28.2 + 10 log(C), 120 kHz : 〈SV〉= -32.4 + 10 log(C). The mean weight -normalized target strengths derived from these equitions were -28.2 dB/ kg, -32.4 dB/ kg at 38 kHz and 120 kHz , respectively. That is, the mean weight -normalized target strength at 38 kHz was 4.2 dB higher than that at 120 kHz. 3. The distribution density of fish in terms of biomass per unit volume in the southern waters of Korea were estimated to be 125.9 $\times$ 10-6 kg/m3 and 141.3 $\times$ 10-6 kg/m3 at 38 kHz and 120 kHz , respectively.

The Lago Sofia conglomerate in southern Chile is a deep-marine gravelly deposit, which is hundreds of meters thick and kilometers wide and extends laterally for more than 100 km, filling the foredeep trough of the Cretaceous Magallanes Basin. For understanding the depositional processes and environments of this gigantic deep-sea conglomerate, detailed analyses on sedimentary facies, architecture and paleoflow patterns were carried out, highlighting the differences between the northern (Lago Pehoe and Lago Goic areas) and southern (Lago Sofia area) parts of the study area. The conglomerate bodies in the northern part occur as relatively thin (< 100 m thick), multiple units intervened by thick mudstone-dominated sequences. They show paleoflows toward ENE and S to SW, displaying a converging drainage pattern. In the southern part, the conglomerate bodies are vertically interconnected and form a thick (> 400 m thick) conglomerate sequence with rare intervening fine-grained deposits. Paleoflows are toward SW. The north-to-south variations are also distinct in sedimentary facies. The conglomerate bodies in the southern part are mainly composed of clast-supported conglomerate with sandy matrix, which is interpreted to be deposited from highly concentrated bedload layers under turbidity currents. Those in the northern part are dominated by matrix- to clast-supported conglomerate with muddy matrix, which is interpreted as the products of composite mass flows comprising a turbidity current, a gravelly hyperconcentrated flow and a mud-rich debris flow. All these characteristics suggest that the Lago Sofia conglomerate was formed in centripetally converging submarine channels, not in centrifugally diverging channels of submarine fans. The tributaries in the north were dominated by mass flows, probably affected by channel-bank failures or basin-marginal slope instability processes. In contrast, the trunk channel in the south was mostly filled by tractive processes, which resulted in the vertical and lateral accretion of gravel bars, deposition of gravel dunes and filling of scours and channels, similar to deposits of terrestrial gravel-bed rivers. The trunk channel developed along the axis of foredeep trough and its confinement within the trough is probably responsible for the thick, interconnected channel fills. The large-scale architecture of the trunk-channel fills shows an eastward offset stacking pattern, suggesting that the channel migrated eastwards most likely due to the uplift of the Andean Cordillera.

In summer season of 1998, a huge flood occurred around the Yangtze River in the eastern China. The low salinity water less than 28 psu from the river was detected around the southeastern part of the Jeju Island which is located in the southern part of the Korean peninsula. We studied how to detect low salinity water from the Yangtze River, which gives terrible damages to the Korean fisheries. We got the relationships between low surface salinity, turbid water from the Yangtze River and digital ocean color using remote sensing of SeaWiFS satellite in the northern East China Sea in summer seanson of 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001. The charts of salinity in the northern East China Sea were made by the regenerating of the satellite ocean color data with the formula from the relationships between low salinity, in situ turbid water (transparency) and satellite ocean color.
