한반도 주변에 분포하는 수괴와 해수순화에 관하여 지금 까지 알려져있는 사실들 을 토대로 하여 이를 요약 정리하였고 물리적 관점에서 이에 대하여 간략히 논의하였 다. 한반도 주변의 해황(수괴와 해수순환)은 해역의 남쪽 경계인 쿠로시오수로부터 분 리유입된 대마난류에 의해 지배되나 담수유입, 바람, 대기와의 열교환등에 의해 크게 변형된다. 남서해에서 대마난류수의 확장 한계는 일차적으로 대만북측과 제주도를 연 결하는 선으로 볼 수 있으나 여름철에는 외해로 확장하는 양자강수의 영향을 많이 받 고 겨울철에는 강한 북서계절풍에 의해 난류수의 황해유입이 유발되는 것이 특징이라 할 수 있다. 동해에서 대마난류수는 한국 동안 (약 37-38$^{\circ}$N 부근)에서 일본 북부의 Tsugaru, Soya 해협을 연결하는 선 이남에 국한된다고 대체적으로 볼 수 있으나 겨울 철의 북서 계절풍 표면냉각 등에 의해 표층은 물론 심층까지 영향을 받을 가능성이 매 우 크다. 그러나 한반도 주변 해황에 대한 이해는 아직도 크게 부족하여 해결되어야 할 문제점들이 많이 남아 있어서 이를 간략히 열거해 보았으며 이에 대한 몇 가지 사 견도 제시하였다.

Temperature variations, and carbon dioxide and methane concentrations are summarized during the past 400,000 years. Atmospheric temperature varied approximately within $10^{\circ}C$ during the past 400,000 years. Most of the time during the past 400,000 years, temperature was lower than today except 410000, 320000, 250000, and 125000 years ago. Temperature was slightly higher or at least similar to today during the time period of 410000. 320000, 250000, and 125000 years ago. The carbon dioxide concentration varied between 180 and 300 ppm, and the methane concentration varied between 40 and 700ppb. The present atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide is 375 ppm and methane is 1750 ppb. Temperature was 5-$7^{\circ}C$ lower than today during the Last Glacial Maximum(18,000 years ago) and the Younger Dryas(10,000 years ago). Temprature was varied within $1^{\circ}C$ during the past 10,000 years. Especially Middle Holocene Climatic Optimum(6,000 years ago), Medieval Warm Period (500-1,000 years ago), and Little Ice Age(100-500 year ago) were global climatic events. In general, mechanism for the Middle Holocene Climatic Optimum, Medical Warm Period, and Little Ice Age can be explained by the solar insulation, however their exact mechnism is not well known. Carbon dioxide concentration during the past 400,000 years never reached the current value of 375 ppm. Furthermore, the current methane concentration never reached during the past 20Ma. However, current temperature value has happened several times during the past 400,000 years. The implication of this is unsolved question so far. This should be challenged in the near future.

In order to investigate the ecotypic variations of pulsatilla koreana nakai distributed in korea, 8 local populations of the plant were selected in accordance with latitude and compared on the differences of leaf shape, elongstion, stomatal distribution and dhlorophyll content. The incised angle of the plant is 38。32' in cheju, showing a great difference as compared with 23。77'-30。 32' of the other sites. as to the incised rate, mt. togyu and cheju representsed relatively high values of 49.04% and 48.21% the parted leaved individuals were only observed along the warm current coastal area including cheju, sokcho and sunchon and were 54(62.8%), 2(2.5%) and 3(3.3%) in the sites, respectively. Especially, the individuals consisting of only parted learves were 5(5.8%) in cheju alone and none of the other sites showed such individuals at all. So p. cernua distributed in cheju and p. koreana in inland area can be considered to beecotypic variations of the same species from the upper investigations. According to the elongations of leaf and rachis, the local populations could be classified into 3 types, such as warm current coastal area type(cheju,sunchon and sokcho),southern inland area type(andong, chungju and mt. togyu)and central inland ara type(mt. komdan and hongchon). The dentate numbera of 39.80-43.73 in the warm current area were also different from those of 87% in mt.togyu and 15% in hongchon, while opposite leaflets account for 100% in the other sites. The content of chlorophyll ranged from 0.609 mg/g. d.w.(cheju)to 0.924 mg/g.d.w.(hongchon), showing an increasing trends as the latitudes grow higher. The number of stomata on the low epidermis is much larger than that on the upper epidermis in the whole area. But both aspects showed an increasing tendency, too as the latitude becomes higher.

1996년 6월에 실시된 CREAMS 항해 관측 자료를 이용하여 동해 남부 해역의 해황을 분석하였다. 1996년은 1990년∼1999년 사이의 다른 해에 비해 동해 남부 해역에 저수온 현상이 나타났으며, 이러한 현상은 일본 연안을 따라 이동하는 쓰시마난류의 지류가 더욱더 연안에 근접하여 이동하는 것과 관련이 있다. 쓰시마난류의 분포는 수심 200m 이천의 대륙붕 위에 존재하는 core 형태의 고염분수 분포와 지형류의 분포로부터 확인된다. 해수의 안정도 계산결과로부터 고온 고염분수인 쓰시마 난류의 유입은 연안역의 연직 밀도 구조에 영향을 주게 되며, 이로 인하여 수주의 불안정한 상태를 초래하는 요인 중 한가지로 작용하는 것으로 나타난다.

The characteristics of SST variability in the East Sea are analyzed using NOAA/AVHRR weekly SST data with about $0.18^{\circ}{\times}0.18^{\circ}$ resolution ($1981{\sim}2000$) and reconstructed historical monthly SST data with $2^{\circ}{\times}2^{\circ}$ resolution $(1950{\sim}1998)$. The distinct feature of wintertime SST is high variability in the western and eastern parts of $38^{\circ}{\sim}40^{\circ}$ latitudinal band, which are the northern boundary of warm current in the East Sea during winter. However, summertime SST exhibits variability with similar magnitude in the entire region of the East Sea. The analysis of remote correlation also shows that SST in the East Sea is closely correlated with that in the region of Kuroshio in winter, but in summer is related with that in the western and eastern regions of the same latitudes. From these results it is postulated that the SST variability in the East Sea may be related with the variations of East Korean Warm Current and Tsushima Warm Current in winter, but in summer probably with the variations of atmospheric components. In the analysis of ENSO related SST anomaly, a significant negative correlation between SST anomalies in the East Sea and SST anomalies in the tropical Pacific is found in the months of August-October (ASO). The SST in the ASO period shows more significant cooling in E1 $Ni\~{n}o$ events than warming in La $Ni\~{n}a$ events. Also, the regional analysis shows by the Student's t-test that the negative SST anomalies in the E1 $Ni\~{n}o$ events are more significant in the southwestern part of the East Sea.

Complex physical, chemical and biological interactions off the Korean coast created several striking patterns in the phytoplankton blooms, which became conspicuous during the measurements of ocean color from space. This study concentrated on analyzing the spatial and temporal aspects of phytoplankton chlorophyll variability in these areas using an integrated dataset from a Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS), Advanced Very High Resolution (AVHRR) sensor, and Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) sensor. The results showed that chlorophyll concentrations were elevated in coastal and open ocean regions, with strong summer and fall blooms, which appeared to spread out in most of the enclosed bays and neighboring waters due to certain oceanographic processes. The chlorophyll concentration was observed to range between 3 and $54\;mg\;m^{-3}$ inside Jin-hae Bay and adjacent coastal bays and 0.5 and $8\;mg\;m^{-3}$ in the southeast sea offshore waters, this gradual decrease towards oceanic waters suggested physical transports of phytoplankton blooms from the shallow shelves to slope waters through the influence of the Tsushima Warm Current (TWC) along the Tsushima Strait. Horizontal distribution of potential temperature $(\theta)$ and salinity (S) of water off the southeastern coast exhibited cold and low saline surface water $(\theta and warm and high saline subsurface water $({\theta}>12^{\circ}C; S>34.4)$ at 75dBar, corroborating TWC intrusion along the Tsushima Strait. An eastward branch of this current was called the East Korean Warm Current (EKWC), tracked with the help of CTD data and satellite-derived sea surface temperature, which often influenced the dynamics of mesoscale anticyclonic eddy fields off the Korean east coast during the summer season. The process of such mesoscale anticyclonic eddy features might have produced interior upwelling that could have shoaled and steepened the nutricline, enhancing phytoplankton population by advection or diffusion of nutrients in the vicinity of Ulleungdo in the East Sea.

In order to calculate the strength and to. see the variation af the stratification in the Southern Waters af Korea, the stratification parameter defined as potential energy anomaly (PEA, $V(J/m^3)$) introduced by Simpson and Hunter (1974) was used The data used in this paper were observed in August 1999 and February 2000 by National Fisheries Research and Development Institute (NFRDI). Also to know the effects af the temperature and the salinity an the stratification respectively, averaged temperature and salinity were used in the process af calculation the parameter. V is generally high in the offshore. However, in February, V in the onshore is higher than that of the offshore due to the vertical temperature gradient caused by the expansion of South Korean Coastal Waters (SKCW). In the summer, the increase af the atmospheric heating, the temperature inversion phenomenon act an the stratification as the buoyancy forcing. In most cases, the effects of the temperature on the stratification is stronger than that of the salinity. The temperature effect is predominantly due to the extent af the intrusion of Tsushima Warm Current into the study area. However, at stations where V is high the effect af the salinity is also significant. In the winter, V is very low due to the decrease of the buoyancy forcing, but same stations show the relatively high V due to the expansion of SKCW and Tsushima Warm Current.

This study was carried out to provide basic data for logical forest management by developing a site index curve reflecting the current growth characteristics of Cryptomeria japonica stands in Korea. The height growth model was developed using the Chapman-Richards, Schumacher, Gompertz, and Weibull algebraic difference equations, which are widely used in growth estimation, for data collected from 119 plots through the 7th National Forest Inventory and stand survey. The Chapman-Richards equation, with the highest model fit, was selected as the best equation for the height growth model, and a site index curve was developed using the guide curve method. To compare the developed site index curve with that on the yield table, paired T-tests with a significance level of 5% were performed. The results indicated that there were no significant differences between the site index curve values at all ages, and the p-value was smaller after the reference age than before. Therefore, the site index curve developed through this study reflects the characteristics of the changing growth environment of C. japonica stands and can be used in accordance with the site index curve on the current yield table. Thus, this information can be considered valuable as basic data for reasonable forest management.

현행 중등학교 과학 및 지구과학 교과서에 제시되어 있는 대부분의 해류도는 1930년대 일본 과학자에 의한 대규모 해양 관측을 기반으로 제작된 것이다. 현재 해양학자들의 과학적인 관점으로 보았을 때 이 해류도들은 상당한 오류를 가지고 있고 학생들에게 오개념을 유발할 가능성이 높아 새로운 해류도 제작이 필요하였다. 그러나 황해와 동중국해의 해류는 상대적으로 얕은 수심과 복잡한 지형, 바람, 조류의 영향으로 계절적으로 복잡한 양상을 나타내기 때문에 하나의 해류도로 표현하는 것은 간단하지 않다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위하여 황해 및 동중국해의 해류도 작성에 유의해야 할 주요 항목으로 쿠로시오해류의 동중국해로의 유출입과 북상 경로, 대마난류의 기원과 대한해협으로의 유입, 대만난류의 경로, 제주난류, 양쯔강 유출류의 흐름 양상, 황해 난류의 북상 범위와 경로, 그 외 중국연안류, 한반도 서해안의 서한연안류, 보하이해 해류 등 16가지를 선정하여 이에 기반을 두고 학회의 의견을 수렴하였다. 2014년부터 3년 동안 학회, 전문가 토론회, 자문회의를 통하여 해양학계 과학자들의 오랜 기간 동안 심도 있는 논의와 여러 차례 수정을 통하여 황해와 동중국해에 대한 최종 해류도를 제작하였다. 최종 해류도는 이 해역 해류의 복잡성을 고려하여 여름과 겨울을 대표하는 해류도, 여름과 겨울의 표층과 저층 해류도, 그리고 계절과 깊이에 상관없이 황해 및 동중국해를 대표할 수 있는 하나의 표층해류도 등 총 7개로 제작되었다. 이 해류도들은 향후 동해와 북서태평양 해류도와 연결하여 중등학교 교과서 및 고등교육, 나아가서는 과학 전문가를 위한 해류도로서 널리 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

한국 근해의 서남해 및 동지나해에 있어서 최근 16개년간($1970\~1985$)의 안강망에 의한 병어어획통계자료로 부터 병어류의 분포 및 회유와 해양환경에 따른 어황을 살펴본 결과는 다음과 같다. 병어류의 주요 어장은 제주도와 양자강하구를 잇는 선상에 위치한 대양자사퇴역으로, 병어류가 어획되었던 분포역은 전면적의 약 $11\%$에 해당하는 14개 해구에서 전어획량의 약 $70\%$를 차지하고 있었다. 전해구에 걸쳐 어획량의 변동 계수는 0.01 미만이었으며, 14개 주요 어장의 변동 계수는 $0.001\~0.003$으로 특히 작았다. 또한, 이 해역은 춘계부터 추계까지 황해난류의 유입이 뚜렷하며, 중국대륙연안수와 황해저층냉수 및 쓰시마 난류 사이에 뚜렷한 전선을 형성하고 있는 혼합수역이었다. 병어류는 쓰시마 난류와 황해저충냉수의 소장에 따라 남북회유를 한다. 즉, 하계에는 황해북부로, 동계에는 동지나해 중부이남의 월동장으로 회유한다. 병어류 어획 수형의 최대빈도범위는 수온 $10\~12^{\circ}C$ 염분 $32.4\~33.4\%_{circ}$로, 이 범위에서 어기별 총 어획량의 $70\%$ 이상을 차지하였으며, 한어기와 성어기에 따른 최다어획 수형빈도범위는 차이가 없었다.
