  • This study is designed to propose the ways of the multilateral cooperation system for effective management of fisheries resources in the various overlapping zones established by bilateral fisheries agreements between Korea, China and Japan in North East Asia as semi-enclosed sea. It is necessary to build multilateral fisheries cooperation between Korea, China and Japan in North East Asia because conservation & management of transboundary fish stocks could not be guaranted effectively by the management of fisheries resources in the area where piled up the current-fishing-pattern zone, as white zone and the various grey zone as middle zone, and the interim measures zone of bilateral fisheries agreements between Korea, China and Japan are piled up. Fisheries management in Korea, China and Japan by the bilateral fisheries agreements in North East Asia is faced with difficulties manage fisheries resources. International relationship on fisheries is maintained by bilateral fisheries agreements based on UNCLOS. However fisheries resources are over-exploited and the recovery of the fisheries resources is very slow because proper conservation and management of transboundary fish stocks which article 63(1) of UNCLOS defines have not prepared yet. Thus close cooperation among the coastal States for a proper conservation and management of transboundary fish stocks is necessary. Since the transboundary fish migrate within the EEZs of two or more coastal States, there is a need to manage the fish stocks in the region between Korea, China and Japan through a multi-lateral mechanism at ccircumference area of the current-fishing-pattern zone as white zone. Coastal States must guarantee sustainable maintenance of transboundary fish stocks through the regional cooperation for a proper conservation & management because one coastal State alone could not guarantee conservation and management of fish stocks. Thus there is a need to build multilateral fisheries cooperation between Korea, China and Japan in North East Asia. There are many successful instances including the Barents' sea for a proper conservation & management of transboundary fish stocks. The Barents' sea is one of the best research object to study the regional cooperation for a conservation & management of transboundary fish stocks in North East Asia. In conclusion, it is necessary to build a multilateral fisheries cooperation system between Korea, China and Japan in North East Asia to conserve and manage transboundary fish stocks effectively. It seems desirable that the range of the area to conserve and manage fish stocks should may be any partial area in the current-fishing-pattern zone and interim measures zone between Korea and China, Jeju middle zone between Korea and Japan, interim measures zone of bilateral fisheries agreements between China and Japan.

  • A common feature in the three-dimensional numerical model experiments of coastal discharge with simplified model and idealized external forcings is investigated. The velocity fields due to the buoyancy and flaw flux, are spreaded radiately and the surface velocites are much greater than the homegeneous discharges. The coastal dischargd due to the Coriolis force and flaw flux are shaped a anticyclical gyre (clockwise) and determined the scale of the gyre in the coastal zone, respectively. The bottom topography restricts a outward extention of the coastal fronts and it accelerates a southward flow.

  • The new approach to the problem of oil spill detection consisting in combined use of all available quasiconcurrent satellite information (AVHRR NOAA, TOPEX/Poseidon, Jason-1, MODIS Terra/Aqua, QuikSCAT) is suggested. We present the results of the application of the proposed approach to the operational monitoring of seawater condition and pollution in the coastal zone of northeastern Black Sea conducted in 2006. This monitoring is based on daily receiving, processing and analysis of data different in nature (microwave radar images, optical and infrared data), resolution and surface coverage. These data allow us to retrieve information on seawater pollution, sea surface and air-sea boundary layer conditions, seawater temperature and suspended matter distributions, chlorophyll a concentration, mesoscale water dynamics, near-surface wind and surface wave fields. The focus is on coastal seawater circulation mechanisms and their impact on the evolution of pollutants.

  • The join of remote sensing and GIS(Geographic Information System) could be useful in various fields of marine information and land information as well as ITS(Intelligent Transport Systems). This paper is LPF(Low Pass Filtering) for the extraction of island detection in coastal zone Iron SPOT imagery which is 10m resolution photograph. The study area is based on the southern sea in korea. Sobel operator performed the extraction of island detection in coastal zone after the LPF processing by remote sensing. And, GIS was used to generate from raster to vector data. As the result, The best way prove out the 5${\times}$5 convolution mask about the LPF processing of island detection in coastal zone. It is judged the research which it sees with the fact that the presentation of very scientific and reasonable data will be possible from the oceanic dispute will occur from the EEZ(Exclusive Economic Zone).

  • We grouped the names attributed to the seas surrounding the Korean Peninsula in maps published in two major Korean ocean and fisheries science journals over the period from 1998 to 2017: the Journal of the Korean Society of Oceanography (The Sea) and the Korean Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Science (KFAS). The names attributed to these seas in maps of journal paper broadly were classified into three groupings: (1) East Sea and Yellow Sea; (2) East Sea, Yellow Sea, and South Sea; or (3) East Sea, West Sea and South Sea. The name 'East Sea' was dominantly used for the waters between Korea and Japan. In contrast, the water between Korea and China has been mostly labelled as 'Yellow Sea' but sometimes labelled as 'West Sea'. The waters between the south coast of Korea and Kyushu, Japan were labelled as either 'Korea Strait' or 'South Sea'. This analysis on sea names in the maps of 'The Sea' and 'KFAS' reveals that domestic researchers frequently mix geographical and international names when referring to the waters surrounding the Korean Peninsula. These inconsistencies provide the motivation for the development of a basic unifying guideline for naming the seas surrounding the Korean Peninsula. With respect to this, we recommend the use of separate names for the marginal seas between continental landmasses and/or islands versus for the coastal waters surrounding Korea. For the marginal seas, the internationally recognized names are recommended to be used: East Sea; Yellow Sea; Korea Strait; and East China Sea. While for coastal seas, including Korea's territorial sea, the following geographical nomenclature is suggested to differentiate them from the marginal sea names: Coastal Sea off the East Coast of Korea (or the East Korea Coastal Zone), Coastal Sea off the South Coast of Korea (or the South Coastal Zone of Korea), and Coastal Sea off the West Coast of Korea (or the West Korea Coastal Zone). Further, for small or specific study areas, the local region names, district names, the sea names and the undersea feature names can be used on the maps.

  • To explore submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) into the coastal zone of Jeju Island, the water quality analysis with seasonal remotely sensed data was carried out. If the groundwater is directly discharged into the ocean, the water quality of coastal zone is influenced. Therefore sea surface temperature (SST), the transparency, and Chlorophyll-a's concentration were analyzed for extracting the anomaly zone related with SGD using Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) data acquired on April, August, and December. Then the spatial characteristics of springs, which located along the coastal area, were analyzed by CIS data integration based on Fuzzy logic. The integration results were compared with the anomaly zone extracted from Landsat TM data, and it is considered that springs has close relationship with SGD.

  • The natural ecology of our coastal zone has been well preserved because of the designation of Han-Ryea national sea park. However, recently, it is being threatened by the frequent request of district regulation of national park and relaxation of green belt, etc. And also, with the reclamation of the foreshore by the development of industrial complex and tourism resource cultivation on a large scale, development pressure for natural coast is increasing. For that reason, preservation of the ecology, organized management and investigation is needed for the islands which scenery is beautiful and rare animals and plants inhabit. And also, it is worried that major habitats of migrants are diminishing because of the district regulation of national park, relaxation of green belt zone and construction of coastal streets. Therefore. on the basis of the through environmental impact assessment, only the business which are aimed at the preservation and restoration of the natural coast should be admitted and the act of eroding must be restricted.

  • An amended form of radiation stress is presented in the present model and the existence of the surface advection terms is verified through comparisons with wave energy equation. The model yields circulation patterns in both cross-shore and longshore directions on the plane beach slope. Comparison with laboratory experiments showed good agreements. Finally, a quasi-three dimensional model suitable for the entire nearshore zone is developed by linking the depth-integrated properties with vertical profiles.

  • In this paper the effect of wave motion acting on the natural folds of dispersed material in the coastal zone is studied. After integrating the usual diffusion equation with respect to the depth using shallow-water approximation simpler equation for integrated concentration was obtained. which holds for long waves of arbitrary amplitude and far any arbitrary barotropic flows. Different situations of long wave action on impurity concentration in the frame of this equation are considered.
