Fish resource surveys were conducted near Jeju Island in June, August and October 2021 using an underwater camera monitoring system, fish pots, and SCUBA diving methods. The efficiency of the methods used to survey fish resources was compared using the number of individuals compared to area per unit time (inds/m³/h) and the number of species compared to area per unit time (spp./m³/h). As a result of comparing the number of individuals compared to the area per unit time (inds/m³/h), the order was underwater camera 214.69, SCUBA diving 124.62, and fish pots 0.57 inds/m³/h. The number of species compared to area per unit time (spp./m³/h) is in the following order: SCUBA diving 0.85, underwater camera 0.38, and fish pots 0.01 spp./m³/h. The fish resource monitoring method using underwater cameras was found to be more efficient in individual counts, and the SCUBA diving method was found to be more efficient in species counts. When considering cost and survey efficiency, the fish resource survey method using underwater cameras was judged to be more effective. The results of this study are expected to be widely used in estimating the population density of fish, which is the core of future fisheries resource surveys.

지표레이다 (GPR)를 이용하여 하상 퇴적물 조사를 수행하였다. 조사지역은 수심이 약 2.5 m 정도로 얕고, 물이 흐르지 않는 호수이며, 조사대상인 뻘 (mud)층의 두께가 얇아 GPR이 매우 효율적인 탐사방법이다. 조사결과 수심하부 층서구조, 즉 뻘층, 모래층, 자갈 및 기반암의 구조를 효율적으로 파악할 수 있었으며, 주 제거대상인 뻘층의 경우 여러개의 탐사 측선으로부터 그 분포 및 총 퇴적량을 추정하였다 이러한 결과는 향후 이 지역에서의 준설을 위한 기초자료로 매우 중요하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

This paper deals with the underwater image transmission system which includes in AUV(Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) Project(that is VORAM(Vehicle for Ocean Research And Monitoring)), developed by KIMM for survey and investigation of a sea-bed through transmitting the underwater image to the mother ship. The system presented in this paper consists of a transducer which has a 136KHz center frequency and it's 10KHz bandwidth, pre-amplifier, $\pi$/4 QPSK(Quadreature Phase Shift Keying) modulation/demodulation method, image compressing method using JPEG technique and modified Stop & protocol. The experimental results of the system is verified to a high performance with 9600 bps for transmitting the underwater image through the basin test. The results of test are also verified which allows to desirable transmission performance compared with the existing developed system and the possibility to put the practical use of survey and investigation. And, the viterbi coding and adaptive equalizer for cancelling the multipath effect are developing for more effective image transmission system. Also, these technique will very effectively adapt to realtime image transmission system.

Intertidal zones, akin to tidal flats, are among the potential areas where underwater cultural heritage might be submerged. However, the shallow depths in these regions present challenges for conventional vessel-based survey methods. Moreover, during low tides, intertidal zones transform into tidal flats, limiting the efficiency of survey efforts due to restricted access and potential risks. As a result, proper underwater cultural heritage surveys encounter difficulties in these environments. In recent times, extensive research is underway to address these issues by investigating underwater cultural heritage surveys in intertidal zones, encompassing diverse fields, including equipment-based investigations. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to conduct intertidal cultural heritage surveys, employing aerial photography and 3D mapping to create detailed orthoimages and 3D models. The study focused on assessing the potential application of these techniques for cultural heritage surveying within intertidal zones. Notably, the survey conducted in Jindo's Naesan-ri demonstrated high-resolution capabilities, enabling the distinction of actual pottery fragments mixed within gravel fields. Similarly, in the survey of Jindo's Byeokpa-hang, it was found that a wooden pillar structure existed in a section about 200m long. The integration of various sensors, including LiDAR, with UAVs allows for diverse investigation possibilities, including bathymetric measurements, and is expected to facilitate the acquisition of varied datasets for further research and assessment.

Side scan sonar using acoustic wave plays a very important role in the underwater, sea floor, and shallow marine geologic survey. In this study, we have acquired side scan sonar data for the underwater man-made structures, artificial reefs and fishing grounds, installed and distributed in the survey area. We applied digital image processing techniques to side scan sonar data in order to improve and enhance an image quality. We carried out digital image processing with various kinds of filtering in spatial domain and frequency domain. We tested filtering parameters such as kernel size, differential operator, and statistical value. We could easily estimate the conditions, distribution and environment of artificial structures through the interpretation of side scan sonar.

We investigated subsurface structures of the Bransfield Basin, the Antarctic with AUH (Autonomous Underwater Hydrophne) which was designed to record abyssal T-waves generated from submarine earthquakes. The data obtained from a multi-channel seismic survey and an AUH were used for this study. A seismic reflection method was applied to the multi-channel seismic survey data in order to identify bathymetry and sedimentary structures, and the signals recorded in the AUH were used to obtain deep structures as we applied a seismic refraction method. Even though we couldn’t investigate deeper and detailed structure in study area because of lack of Airgun’s capacity, the AUH showed possibilities for being used for a marine seismic survey. From this experiment, we decided the upper and lower sediment layer velocities, detected irregular basement topography probably caused by submarine volcanic/magmatic activities, and retrieved the velocity of the basement and the depth of the sediment layer/basement boundary.

우리나라는 지형적으로 바다로 둘러싸여 있으며 내륙 곳곳에 바다로 이어지는 강들이 분포한다. 이러한 지형 특성에 의해 예로부터 바다를 통하여 세계 여러 나라와 교류 및 해전이 있었으며 강에서는 나루터를 두어 세금으로 지불되는 곡식, 물품을 운송하는 선박 운항 및 승객 수송을 하는 등 바다와 강은 과거부터 우리나라의 삶에 많은 영향을 주었다. 그로 인해 바다나 강 속에는 많은 문화유산이 존재하고 있을 것으로 예상되며 이러한 문화유산은 과거의 사회와 문화 이해 및 한 국가의 정체성을 나타내므로 이를 찾기 위한 노력이 계속되고 있다. 하지만, 수중문화유산은 바다나 강 속에 있어 육안 관찰의 어려움과 접근이 제한된 환경으로 인해 발견하기가 매우 어렵다. 이와 같은 문제를 극복하기 위해 지구물리탐사 기법을 활용할 수 있다. 지구물리탐사 기법은 탄성파의 반사와 굴절의 물리적 성질을 이용해 수중지형조사, 수중저면조사 및 지층조사를 수행하여 수중에 있는 물체나 지층이 갖는 물리적 특성을 감지하고 그 차이를 분석하여 수저면 위에 놓여 있거나 매장되어 있는 수중문화유산을 조사한다. 수중지형 조사에는 음향측심기를 사용하고 수중저면조사에는 측면주사음파탐지기를 사용해 수저면에 놓여 있거나 일부 노출된 수중문화유산을 탐사할 수 있다. 지층조사는 탄성파지층탐사기를 사용해 해저에 매장되어 있는 수중문화유산을 찾을 수 있다. 다만, 현재까지는 국내에서 발견된 수중문화유산은 어로 작업 중이던 어부나, 낙지잡이, 잠수사에 의해 우연히 발견되었다. 본 연구에서는 수중문화유산 탐사를 목적으로 수행된 지구물리탐사 기반의 수중지형조사, 수중저면조사 및 지층조사에 대한 최신 해외 연구 동향을 분석 정리해 국내의 수중문화유산 탐사 기법 연구에 기여하고자 한다.

In order to successfully exploit underwater resources, the first step would be a marine environmental research and exploration on the seafloor. Traditionally one sets up a long-term underwater experimental unit on the seafloor and retrieves the unit later after a certain period time. Essential to these applications is the reliable teleoperation and telemetering of the unit. This study presents ultrasonic-wave remote control system and an underwater sound recognition algorithm that can identify the sound signal without the influence of disturbances due to underwater environmental changes. The proposed method provides a means suitable for units which require low power dissipation and long-time underwater operation. We demonstrate its ability of securing stability and fast sound recognition through experimental methods.

The available underwater acoustic spectrum is limited. Therefore, it is imperative to avoid frequency interference from overlapping frequencies of underwater acoustic equipment (UAE) for the co-existence of the UAE. Cognitive technology that senses idle spectrum and actively avoids frequency interference is an efficient method to facilitate the collision-free operation of multiple UAE with overlapping frequencies. Cognitive technology is adopted to identify the frequency usage of UAE to apply cognitive technology. To this end, we investigated two principle underwater acoustic sources: UAE and marine animals. The UAE is classified into five types: underwater acoustic modem, acoustic positioning system, multi-beam echo-sounder, side-scan sonar, and sub-bottom profiler. We analyzed the parameters of the frequency band, directivity, range, and depth, which play a critical role in the design of underwater acoustic cognitive technology. Moreover, the frequency band of several marine species was also examined. The mid-frequency band from 10 - 40 kHz was found to be the busiest. Lastly, this study provides useful insights into the design of underwater acoustic cognitive technologies, where it is essential to avoid interference among the UAE in this mid-frequency band.
