본 연구에서 바지락 부유 유생은 저질입경이 클수록 착저율(${\Omega}_b$)이 높았으며, 생물적으로도 저질을 선택하고 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또 침투류의 발생에 의한 유동장에 있어서는 유속이 10 cm/s, 저질 중앙입경 1.211 mm, 침투 유속 0.3 cm/s일 경우, 3.1-5.1 배의 부유 유생 착저 효과 $\alpha$ (=${\Omega}_b/{\Omega}_{b0}$)가 증가되는 것을 확인하였다. 부유 유생에 있어서 저질입경의 선택성은 생물적인 요인에 의존하고, 유동장에 있어서 착저 촉진 효과는 물리적인 안정 조건에 지배되어 있었다. 그리고 이번 새롭게 도입한 안정 지표(${\lambda}p$)에 의해 통일적으로 평가할 수 있는 것을 확인하였다. 유생의 안정 지표(${\lambda}p$)에 의하면, 유속이 작용했을 경우의 부유 유생은 저질입경에 영향을 받지 않고 거의 일정 값을 가지며, 초기 이동한계유속 및 전면 이동 한계유속에 대응하는 ${\lambda}p$값은 각각 0.14, 1.06 이였고, 새롭게 제안한 안정 지표(${\lambda}p$)의 타당성이 검증되었다. 따라서 본 연구 결과에 의해 어떤 해역의 바지락 부유 유생의 부유 밀도, 저질 입경, 유동 조건이 명확할 때, 바지락 부유 유생의 착저율을 추측할 수 있는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Sea dike construction for the tidal flat reclamation works in estuary and coast may change the characteristics of tidal motion and wave conditions in the region. In turn, a new hydraulic condition provides the impacts on sediment transport pattern and forms a new morphological environment. Also, morphological changes during the closure works of sea dike are closely related with a safy of sea dike. Therefore, the prediction of morphological changes is required secure the safe closure work and the economic design of sea dikes. To investigate morphological changes due to sea dike construction, hydrodynamic changes of tides and waves have to be evaluated, then sediment transport and sea bottom changes are computed. Mathematical modelling is required for representation of interrelation of tidal motion, wave and sediment transport. In this study, numerical model MORSYS is applied to compute the hydrodynamics and morphological changes around the closure gap for Saemankuem dike. This model allows a flexible integration of the module for waves, currents, sediment transport and bottom changes.

Environmental qualities of coastal water and bottom sediment were assessed at Jordan's northernmost tip of Gulf of Aqaba to evaluate possible impacts of the bordering fish pen cages in Eilat. Results showed significant differences between surface and bottom water in the chemical and physical variables in the different months of the year (2004-2005). Chlorophyll a was also significantly higher in bottom water when compared to that of the offshore water. Nitrate and ammonia were significantly higher in bottom water than the surface water at each individual station. The upper 2 cm of sediment sample recorded higher values of total phosphorus and organic matter. Seasonality affected the content of total phosphorus, organic matter, redox potential and color especially at the sediment layer below 3 cm of the sediment core. The present investigation showed slight modification of water and sediment qualities but no clear sign of eutrophication was observed. However, to maintain sustainability of healthy environmental conditions at the northern tip of Gulf of Aqaba potentials of any possible environmental risks arising from the fish farms or any other coastal investment should be carefully considered.

사이드 스캔 소-나 시스템을 이용하여 태안반도 부근 신두리 해역에서 해저면 음향영상 자료를 획득하였다. 후방산란 음향강도와 해저퇴적물의 물성에 대한 상호관계를 연구하였다. 그리고 위의 두 자료 모두 해저수심과 각각 비교해석 하였다. 해저퇴적물의 물성 대부분은 음향강도와 좋은 상관관계를 보이고 있지만, 퇴적물의 분포양상은 암반노출지역을 제외하고는 해저면 음향영상과 정확하게 일치하지는 않았다. 해저수심은 해저면 음향영상의 분포형태에 영향을 미치고 있었을 뿐만 아니라, 해저퇴적물의 물성 분포에서도 선형적인 관계를 보이고 있었다.

The sound wave in the sea propagates under the effect of water depth, sound speed structure, sea surface roughness, bottom roughness, and acoustic properties of bottom sediment. In shallow water, the bottom sediments are distributed very variously with place and the sound speed structure varying with time and space. In order to investigate the seasonal propagation characteristics of low-frequency sound wave in the Yellow Sea, propagation experiments were conducted along a track in the middle part of the Yellow Sea in spring, summer, and autumn. In this paper we consider seasonal variations of the sound speed profile and propagation loss based on the measurement results. Also we quantitatively investigate variation of bottom loss by dividing the propagation loss into three components: spreading loss, absorption loss, and bottom loss. As a result, the propagation losses measured in summer were larger than the losses in spring and autumn, and the propagation losses measured in autumn were smaller than the losses in spring. The spreading loss and the absorption loss did not show seasonal variations, but the bottom loss showed seasonal variations. So it was thought that the seasonal variation of the propagation loss was due to the seasonal change of the bottom loss and the seasonal variation of the bottom loss was due to the change of the sound speed profile by season.

가덕도 인근 연안해역에서 채취된 해저 퇴적물과 연직방향으로 배열된 표사포획장치로부터 획득된 부유물질을 이용하여 탁도계 검교정을 수행하였다. 포획된 부유물질은 모래 함량이 약 6%인 해저 퇴적물에 비하여 주로 실트 및 점토로 조성되었으며, 해저면으로부터의 놀이가 증가함에 따라 세립화하는 경향을 보였다. 해저 퇴적물에 대한 탁도계 검교정 선형 회귀식의 기울기는 최소값으로 나타났으며, 수심별로 포획된 부유물질에 의한 선형 회귀식의 기울기는 포획 고도가 증가함(즉, 입도가 감소함)에 따라서 점진적으로 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 해저 퇴적물에 대한 탁도계 검교정 결과로부터 부유물질 농도를 환산할 경우 과대추정의 오차가 발생되며, 본 연구해역의 경우에는 그 오차가 최대 25％까지 증가할 수 있다는 것을 보여준다. 따라서 해저 퇴적물보다는 수층에서 포획된 부유물질의 입도분포를 고려하여 보정된 검교정식을 적용하는 것이 부유물질 농도의 측정오차를 최소화하는 방법으로 사료된다.

We studied the bottom morphology and sedimentary environments of the Masan Bay using high-resolution Chirp seismic profiles and sediments data. According to deep-drilled core samples (up to 20 m thick) penetrated into the weathered rock basement, the sediments consist largely of three sediment types: the lower sandy gravel facies (Unit I) of 1-4 m in thickness, the middle sandy mud and/or muddy sand facies(Unit II) of 1-2 m thick and the upper mudfacies (Unit III) of over 10 m in thickness. The sedimentary column above the acoustic basement can be divided into two major sequences by a relatively strong mid-reflector, which show the lower sedimentary sequenc e(T) with parallel to subparallel internal reflectors and the upper sedimentary sequence(H) with free acoustic patterns. Acoustic basement, the lower sedimentary sequence (T), and the upper sequence (H) are well correlated with poorly sorted massive sandy gravels (Unit I), the sand/mud-mixed sediment (Unit II), and the muddy facies(Unit III), respectively. The acoustic facies and sediment data suggest that the Masan bay is one of the most typical semi-enclosed coastal embayments developed during the Holocene sea-level changes. The area of the Masan Bay reduced from about $19\;km^2$ in 1964 to about $13\;km^2$ in 2005 by reclamation, and its bottom morphology changed as a result of dredging of about $2{\times}10^7\;m^3$.

The clay minerals of thirty-four bottom sediments collected from the northwestern continental shelf of the East China Sea have been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The clay mineral distribution is mainly controlled by the sediment source and the dominant circulation pattern. The predominant clay mineral in our study area is illite comprising more-than 70% of whole clay fraction. The highest concentration of illite (>72%) is found in the southeastern offshore parts beyond the reach of terrigenous input from the Cheju Island. It means that these illites are largely transported by the Kuroshio Current from the South China Sea. Smectite is highly concentrated in the northwest middle part and in the outer-shelf mud patch. It seems to be due to the high supply of smectite transported from China where the fine-grained sediments are discharged from the modern and ancient Huanghe River. The relatively high abundance of kaolinite is likely derived from the Changjiang River via Taiwan ·Warm Current. In contrast, the large amounts of chlorite and high chlorite/kaolinite ratios occur in the northwestern are, reflecting the transportation by the Huanghai Sea Coastal Current from the southern Yellow Sea.

Radiolarian assemblages from KODOS area were analyzed in order to understand the biostratigraphy and paleoceanography of deep-sea sediment from the Northeast Equatorial Pacific. The sediment core was divided into two or three units on the basis of the chemical and physical properties. In the upper sediment, mixtures of Quaternary and Tertiary radiolarians are found indicating active reworking processes. Dissolution of radiolarians seem to increase with depth. Radiolarians are seldom in Unit III presumably due to dissolution and corrosion. The middle part of unit I appears to correspond to Collosphaera invaginata Zone (0.21 Ma). Unit II belongs to Collosphaera tuberosa Zone. Based on the absence of Stylatractus universus, we estimate its age to be younger than 0.42 Ma. Based on our analyses of radiolarians in Unit I and II, we estimated the age of unit III as Tertiary, particularly from Oligocene to Miocene. There may to be hiatuses of more than 3 My from late Miocene to Pliocene, which probably resulted from erosion and dissolution by the Antarctic Bottom Water Sedimentation rates during Quaternary range from 0.15 to 0.50 mm/ky with significant variabilities among stations. Radiolarians in the study area were mostly warm-water species.
