Based on the five-year (October 1992 through September 1997) Topex/Poseidon altimeter measurements, we describe the statistical characteristics of the eddy variability in the East Sea in terms of sea surface height anomaly, slope variability, and eddy kinetic energy (EKE). The sea surface height anomalies in the East Sea are produced with standard corrections from Topex/Poseidon measurements. In order to eliminate the high frequency noise in the sea surface height anomaly data, the alongtrack height anomaly data was filtered by about 40 km low-pass Lanczos filter based on Strub et al. (1997) and Kelly et a1. (1998). We find that there exists a distinct spatial contrast of high eddy variability in the south and low eddy energy in the north, bordering the Polar Front. In the northwestern area $(north\;of\;39^{\circ}N\;and\;west\;of\;133^{\circ}E)$ from the Polar Front where the eddies frequently appear, the EKE is also considerabel. The high kinetic energy in the southern East Sea reveals a close connection with the paths of the Tsushima Warm Current, suggesting that the high variability in the south is mainly generated by the baroclinic instability process of the Tsushima Warm Current. This finding is supported by other studies (Fu and Zlontnicki, 1989; Stammer, 1997) wh.ch have shown the strong eddy energy coupled in the major current system. The monthly variation of the EKE in both areas of high and low eddy variability shows a strong seasonality of a high eddy kinetic energy from October to February and a relatively low one from March to September. The sequential pattern of wind stress curl shows resemblance with those of monthly and seasonal EKE and the two sequences have a correlation of 0.82 and 0.67, respectively, providing an evidence that wind stress curl can be the possible forcing for the monthly and seasonal variation of the EKE in the East Sea. The seasonality of the EKE also seems to correlate with the seasonality of the Tsushima Warm Current. There also exists the large spatial and interannual variabilities in the EKE.

This study is to analyze the influence of the Tsushima Warm Current (TWC) on the variation of sound speed in the southern part of the East Sea. Sound speed is calculated by method of Chen and Millero (1977:, based on the CTD data measured in June of 1996. Sound speed in the central part of the TWC is about $45ms^{-1}$ more fast than that in the other regions without the TWC. Sound speed minimum layer (SML) in the TWC region exists between loom and 341 m, while it exists between 260m and 290m in the non-TWC region. SML distributes along the path of TWC over continental shelf in the coastal waters of Japan.

A series of observations was conducted in order to study the accuracy of the Jlosition by automatic Loran-C navigation system with two Loran-C chains, namely 5970 and 9970 Chain, in the EJst Sea and Southern Sea of the Korean Peninsular from July to September 1986. Diurnal variation of positional error measured by 5970 Chain was almost stable throughout a whole day, and it was fairly stabl2 in the daytime but fluctuated more or less by night at each station by 9970 Chain. Daily mean values of positional error by 5970 Chain were 6'.44 SWat U1reungdo, 0'.22 SE at Jugbyeon, 0'.91 NE at Guryongpo, 0'.37 SE at Pusan, 0'.30 SE at Yokchi, 0'.37 NW at Cheju and 12'.51 SE at Taeheuksan. By 9970 Chain, they Wer2 0'.27 SWat Ulreungdo, 0'.27 SE at Jugbyeon, 0'.09 SWat Guryongpo, 0'.19 SE at Pusan, 0'. IG SE at Yokchi, 0'.17 Sr:: at Cheju and 0'.52 SE at Taeheuksan.

In the summer of 1998-2001, a huge flood occurred in the Yangtze River in the eastern China. Low salinity water less than 28 psu from the river was detected around the southwestern part of the Jeju Island, which is located in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula. We studied how to detect low salinity water from the Yangtze River, that cause a terrible damage to the Korean fisheries. We established a relationships between low salinity at surface, turbid water from the Yangtze River and digital ocean color remotely sensed data of SeaWiFS sensor in the northern East China Sea, in the summer of 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001. The salinity charts of the northern East China Sea were created by regeneration of the satellite ocean color data using the empirical formula from the relationships between in situ low salinity, in situ measured turbid water with transparency and SeaWiFS ocean color data (normalized water leaving radiance of 490 nm/555 nm).

This study used a multi-frequency acoustic method to assess the density and spatial distribution of dominant zooplankton, euphausiids and copepods, which are representative species of the zooplankton immigrating the sea around Republic of Korea. Acoustic surveys were carried out in the East Sea and South Sea from June 16 to 29, 2017, using the research vessel Tamgu 20th from the National Institute of Fisheries Science. From the results of the acoustic survey, the distribution of euphausiids was relatively higher in the East Sea than in the South Sea. Additionally, although the distribution of copepods was low in all areas, they were abundant in certain areas in the East Sea and the southern area of the Jeju Sea. Euphausiid and copepod density was estimated to be 1.2 g/m² (CV = 19.1%) and 2.8 g/m² (CV = 23.5%), respectively.

The bivalve molluscan fauna of Ulsan Bay, East Sea coast of Korea, is summarized, based on original and literature data. The fauna consists of 61 species belonging to 20 families. Seven species are identified only to genus level. Two species (Carditellopsis toneana (Yokoyama, 1922), Carditidae and Fulvia hungerfordi (G.B. Sowerby III, 1901), Cardiidae) are new records for the East Sea coast of Korea, and one species (Crenella decussata (Montagu, 1808), Mytilidae) is a new record for Korea. Biogeographically, Ulsan Bay's bivalve fauna is subtropical with a predominance of tropical-subtropical species, 21 species, or 39% of the total species number, subtropical, 14 species, or 26%, and subtropical-boreal (mostly subtropical-lowboreal), 11 species, 21%, totalling 86%. A remarkable feature of the Ulsan Bay fauna is the presence of tropical-subtropical species not found in Yeongil Bay but common in tidal flats and shallow waters of the Yellow Sea and the southern part of Korea. A cold water mass appearing off the southeast coast of Korea near Ulsan in summer seems responsible for the presence of boreal-arctic species in this area.

한반도 남부지방(진주)에서 콩 생태형에 따라 생육단계별 생육일수를 적산온도로 환산하여 한반도 북방지역 7개 농업기후지대의 콩 생육예측을 실시하였다. 그 결과는 아래와 같다. 1. 수양산 이남, 수양산 이북, 동해 남부, 중부 내륙, 북부내륙 지역들은 모든 생태형에서 정상적인 생육과 수확이 가능할 것으로 예측되었다. 2. 북부 고산지대는 모든 생태형에서 정상적인 생육이 불가능한 것으로 나타났고, 동해 북부지역은 조생종, 중생종은 정상적인 생육이 가능하지만 중만생종은 생육일수가 부족한 것으로 나타났다. 3. 파종 한계기는 수양산 이남, 수양산 이북, 동해 남부 지역은 생태형에 따라 6월 6일~26일까지, 중부 내륙 6월 2일~17일, 북부 내륙은 5월 24~6월 12일, 동해 북부는 5월 16일~6월 7일경인 것으로 조사되었다. 그러나 북부고산지대는 9℃기준인 4월 30일 파종하여도 생육일수가 부족한 것으로 나타났다.

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.

최근 4년간(1996∼1999) 동해 연근해역에 투하된 30개의 Argos 표류부이로 관측한 주야간 해표면 온도차이 1,438개 data set 값에 대한 계절별 시공간적 변동양상을 분석하였다. 표류부이에 의해 매일 관측된 수온이 정확히 같은 장소의 것이 아니더라도 하루동안의 공간 이동은 중규모(mesoscale) 공간분석의 관점에서 볼 때, 동일 해역의 수온 변동을 값으로 활용할 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다. 동해 전 해역에서 주야간 온도차의 계절 변화에 대한 변동범위와 RMS (root mean square) 진폭을 구한 결과, 겨울보다 여름에 2∼6배정도 큰 계절 변동을 보였고, 년중 늦봄과 초가을에 가장 큰 일변화를 나타냈다. 주야간 온도차의 공간변동의 경우, 동해의 아극전선대(subpolar front)를 중심으로, 북쪽의 한류권이 남쪽의 난류권 해역보다 월별 이상변동폭이 컸으나 계절 변동폭은 난류권역이 상대적으로 큰 변동양상을 나타내었다. 운동성이 심한 와동류(eddy)가 형성되어 있는 원산근해에서 위성 및 표류부이로 현장 측정한 동시 공간적 표면수온과 주야간 온도차 값을 비교함으로써 위성 추정 표면수온의 주야간 온도차 값에 대한 신뢰성 문제를 검토하고 향후 연구방향을 제시하였다.
