서해안에서 보고되고 있는 다수의 해수면 변동 곡선들은 모두 상대해수면(Relative sea-level) 변동곡선으로 사료된다. 서해안의 상대해수면 변동곡선들은 크게 1) 홀로세 해수면은 현 해수면보다 높은 적이 없었다는 학설과 2) 중기 홀로세에 해수면은 현재 해수면보다 수m 높았으며, 이 후 서서히 하강하면서 현해수면에 도달하였다는 학설로 대표된다. 전자는 절대해수면 곡선과 대비되는 반면, 후자는 빙하로부터 원거리에 위치하고 있는 대륙의 연안 역에서 나타나는 상대해수면곡선과 대비된다. 해수면 곡선 복원도에 활용된 자료들을 검토하여 보았을 때, 대부분 기 발표된 논문의 자료들을 인용하였으나, 그 인용에 있어 분석자료의 선택적 사용으로 서로 다른 결과들이 도출되었다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 후자의 자료들은 모두 군산이북지역으로부터 얻어진 것으로, 중기 홀로세 이후 서서히 하강하는 해수면 변동곡선이 군산 이북지역을 대표하고 있는 것으로 생각된다. 서해안 상대해수면 곡선은 빙하평형조절(GIA:Glacio isostatic adjustment)과 이에 수반된 중력 끌림(Gravitational attraction)에 의한 요인뿐만 아니라 그 이외의 지엽적으로 발생하는 지구조 운동 등에 의하여 변동될 수 있다. 그러므로, 서해안역의 상대해수면곡선 양상이 원거리 지역에서 나타나는 것과 대비 되지만, 서해안의 활발한 지진활동과 한반도에 분포하는 다수의 단층 존재를 미루어 볼 때, 지역적으로 발생하는 지구조 운동이 상대해수면 변동에 영향을 끼칠 수 있었을 것으로 예상된다.

Long-term tide-gauge data from around the Korean Peninsula were reanalyzed. Both the coastal water and the open sea surrounding the Korean Peninsula appeared to have been influenced by global warming. The long-term change in relative sea levels obtained from tidal stations showed a general rising trend, especially near Jeju Island. It is proposed that global warming may have caused shifting of the path of the Kuroshio branch (Tsushima Warm Current) toward Jeju Island, causing a persistent increase in the water levels along the coast of the island over the last few decades.

When a ship is sailing on the sea, she has the six-degrees of freedom of motion. It means that she meets a lot of dangerous situations. Especially, when the VLCC is travelling in irregular sea, the slamming, the deck-wetness and the propeller racing are occured with the sea state she is on. These are the representative steps that a heave-to and a scudding are used for a ship building , but for a predominance in both. The author intends to clarify this problem theoretically. The methods of statistical calculation are based with the ITTC spectral formulation and with the assumption that the wave height histogram follows the Rayleigh distribution. In this study, the author gives an attention on the relative bow motion to a wave in the irregular sea. It is verified that the relative diplacement at the bow to sea level in the following sea is less than that in the head sea. It is confirmed that, therefore, one have to sail with scudding when he is threatened to heave-to at a rough sea. But he must bear the propeller racing in mind in the cases.

Hierarchically controlled sequence stratigraphic analysis shows that the Lower Ordovician mixed carbonate-siliciclastic Mungok Formation, Korea consists of three depositional sequences: T1, T2, and T3. Sequence boundaries are generally marked by abrupt transition from coarse-grained shallow-water carbonates to fine-grained deeper-water carbonates mixed with fine-grained siliciclastics, and show indication of subaerial exposure such as karstification. Within this sequence stratigraphic framework, facies characteristics indicate that the Mungok sequences were mostly deposited in subtidal ramp environments. High-frequency cycles consist of upward-shallowing facies successions. Cycles of shallow-water and basinal deposits are not represented well, probably due to cycle amalgamation. Cycle stacking patterns do not show a consistent thickness change that reflects a large-scale sea-level change due to unfilled accommodation space. The Mungok sequences show that many factors including relative sea-level change and topography are involved in controlling sequence development on carbonate ramps. The depositional setting evolved from the high-energy ramps in the sequences T1 and T2 into the low-energy ramp in the sequence T3. Topography is interpreted to have been responsible for the different energy regimes of the carbonate ramps in the Mungok sequences. The high ramp gradient in the sequences T1 and T2 seems to be caused by space-time-dissociated differential sedimentation resulting in spatially narrow distribution of sediment filling, which in turn may be related to high rate of relative sea-level change. In contrast, low ramp gradient was maintained in the sequence T3 during slow changes of relative sea level resulting in broad distribution of sediment filling.

Strong and coherent radar backscattering signals are observed over oyster sea farms that consist of artificial structures installed on the bottom. We successfully obtained 21 coherent interferograms from 11 JERS-1 SAR data sets even though orbital baselines (up to 2 km) or temporal baselines (up to 1 year) were relatively large. The coherent phases preserved in the sea farms are probably formed by double bouncing from sea surface and the sea farming structures, and consequently they are correlated with tide height (or instantaneous sea level). Phase unwrapping is required to restore the absolute sea level. We show that radar backscattering intensity is roughly correlated with the sea surface height, and utilize the fact to determine the wrapping counts. While the SAR image intensity gives a rough range of absolute sea level, the interferometric phases provide the detailed relative height variations within a limit of $2{\pi}$ (or 15.3 cm) with respect to the sea level at the moment of the master data acquisition. A combined estimation results in an instantaneous sea level. The radar measurements were verified using tide gauge records, and the results yielded a correlation coefficient of 0.96 with an r.m.s. error of 6.0 cm. The results demonstrate that radar interferometry is a promising approach to sea level measurement in the near coastal regions.

The changes in structure and abundance of taxon or species groups in the East Sea ecosystem were compared between pre- and post-Climatic Regime Shift (CRS) occurred in the mid 1970s using an ECOPATH model. Although the East Sea ecosystem consisted of primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers and terminal consumers most species groups were classified as secondary consumers. The mean trophic level between pre- and post-CRS increased from 3.09 during the pre-CRS period to 3.28 during the post-CRS period. Total biomass of the species groups in the East Sea ecosystem increased by $9\%$ due to the CRS, and total catch increased by $48\%.$ The most significant differences between pre- and post-CRS models occurred at the mid/high trophic levels occupied by fishes and cephalopods. Relative contribution of the different species groups to the total energy flow was calculated for the trophic level III. As a result, the status by the dominant species in the East Sea ecosystem shifted from cephalopods to walleye pollock due to the CRS. Relative contribution of 5 species, which were commercially important, such as Pacific saury, Pacific sardine, filefish, walleye pollock and sandfish in trophic level III, were also changed due to the CRS. Finally, the CRS turned out to cause large variations in biomass and catch of fisheries resources as well as the status and role of the major species.

This study presents future potential sea level change over the seas surrounding Korea using Climate Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 9 model ensemble result from Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), downloaded from icdc.zmaw.de. At the end of 21st century, regional sea level changes are projected to rise 37.8, 48.1, 47.7, 65.0 cm under RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP6.0 and RCP8.5 scenario, respectively with the large uncertainty from about 40 to 60 cm. The results exhibit similar tendency with the global mean sea level rise (SLR) with small differences less than about 3 cm. For the East Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the southern sea of Korea, projected SLR in the Yellow Sea is smaller and SLR in the southern sea is larger than the other coastal seas. Differences among the seas are small within the range of 4 cm. Meanwhile, Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) data in 23 years shows that the mean rate of sea level changes around the Yellow Sea is high relative to the other coastal seas. For sea level change, contribution of ice and ocean related components are important, at local scale, Glacial Isostatic Adujstment also needs to be considered.

1994년 Townend가 해수면 상승으로 인한 연안 지역의 파랑 특성 변화를 산정하는 방법을 규칙파에 대하여 제시한 바 있으며, 본 연구에서는 이를 불규칙파로 확장하였다. 수심변화율에 따른 불규칙파의 파장, 굴절계수, 천수계수, 그리고 파고 등의 변화율을 계산하였다. 파장 및 굴절계수의 변화율은 규칙파 공식에 유의파 주기와 주파향을 사용하여 계산하였다. 한편, 천수계수와 파고의 변화율 산정을 위해서는 쇄파대를 포함한 연안 지역에서의 불규칙파의 천수 및 파랑 변형 계산을 위해 제안된 공식을 사용하였다. 각 결과는 식과 그래프의 형태로 제안되었으며 파고의 경우 규칙파에 대한 결과와 비교하였다.

북태평양에서 선택한 조석 정점에서 상대 해수면의 시계열 자료와 하와이 제도에서 해안선 변화의 항공 사진을 분석하였다. 대부분의 정점에서 해면의 장기적 상승 추이는 +1 내지 +5 mm/yr의 범위를 보이는데, 주로 지구 온난화 및 지질학적 판(plate)의 이동에 의해 나타나고 있다. 해면의 연변화 및 수년 주기의 변화는 각각 태양 복사의 연변화에 의한 표층수의 팽창 및 수축과, ENSO 주기와 관계된 대기-해양의 상호작용으로부터 기인한다. 이러한 세 가지의 다른 시간 규모로 발생하는 해면변화(장기적 해면상승 추이, 연변화, 수년주기 변화)가 장기적으로 이안 퇴적물 수송의 결과로서 나타나는 해안선 변화에 어떻게 정량적으로 기여하는지 추정하는 가설이 제시된다.
