The distribution of tidal current and tidal induced residual current, topographical eddies and tidal residual circulation in the waters surrounding the Geumo Island-An Island channel were identified through numerical model experiments and vorticity balance analysis. Tidal current flows southwest at flood and northeast at ebb along the channel. The maximum flow velocity was about 100-150 cm/s in neap and spring tide. During the flood current in the neap tide, clockwise small eddies were formed in the waters west of Sobu Island and southwest of Daebu Island, and a more grown eddy was formed in the southern waters of Geumo Island in the spring tide. A small eddy that existed in the western waters of Chosam Island during the ebb in neap tide appeared to be a more grown topographical eddy in the northeastern waters of Chosam Island in spring tide. Tidal ellipses were generally reciprocating and were almost straight in the channel. These topographical eddies are made of vorticity caused by coastal friction when tidal flow passes through the channel. They gradually grow in size as they are transported and accumulated at the end of the channel. When the current becomes stronger, the topographic eddies move, settle, spread to the outer sea and grow as a counterclockwise or clockwise tidal residual circulation depending on the surrounding terrain. In the waters surrounding the channel, there were counterclockwise small tidal residual circulations in the central part of the channel, clockwise from the northeast end of the channel to northwest inner bay of An Island, and clockwise and counterclockwise between Daebu Island and An Island. The circulation flow rate was up to 20-30 cm/s. In the future, it is necessary to conduct an experimental study to understand the growth process of the tidal residual circulation in more detail due to the convergence and divergence of seawater around the channel.

Tidal currents and tidal residual currents in Chinhae Bay are investigated by the field observations and hydraulic experiments during the spring tide and neap tide. The horizontal and vertical scales of the model are l/2,000 and 1/159, respectively. The hydraulic model results roughly coincide with the field data. Maximum tidal currents during the spring tide and neap tide in the central channel of Chinhae Bay are strong as about 90 and 30cm/s respectively, and strong tidal residual currents take place. Maximum tidal currents during the spring tide and neap tide in the western and northern part of the bay are weak as below 30 and 10cm/s respectively, and also tidal residual currents are weak. Tidal residual currents rotating clockwise occur in the central part of the bay. Northward tidal residual currents in the northern part of Kajo-do are predominant, whereas southward ones in the southern part of Kajo-do are remarkable. The surface currents in the bay depend strongly on the wind and river flow, and it seems to be remarkable during the neap tide.

In order to improve the water quality in semi-enclosed bays, Gug et al. (1997) have proposed a new method to activate the tidal exchange by creation and control of tidal residual current through the addition of artificial elements to creation and control of tidal residual current through the addition of artificial elements to create bottom roughness, so, ot is advisable to arrange as few of these as possible from a point of cost-benefit view. This paper attempts to develop the most suitable shape of artificial bottom roughness units with which to create and control an optimal tidal residual current. Several simple shapes were examined as fundamental cases. Subsequently 38 types of artificial bottom roughness units based on a few simple effective shapes, were examined experimentally. As a result of this research, two types to create artificial roughness.

황해연안 조위관측소 10 개 지점에서 2013년 11월 24일 밤부터 25일 오전까지 관측한 해수면, 해면기압, 바람, 유동 자료뿐만 아니라 일기도를 분석하여 이상조위편차의 발생 원인과 관측자료들 간의 상호상관성을 알아보았다. 이상조위편차란 최대조위편차와 최소조위편차가 나타나는 시간동안 두 편차간의 차를 의미한다. 영종도의 최대조위편차는 111 cm, 최소조위편차는 -65 cm로, 4시간 1분 동안 176 cm의 이상조위편차를 보여 10개 조위관측소 가운데 가장 크다. 반면 모슬포의 이상조위편차는 8시간 52분 동안 약 68 cm로 가장 작다. 이 같은 이상조위편차는 기압점프에 의한 기상해일이 아니라 저기압에 의한 기압배치의 영향으로 바람에 의해 발생한 것으로 확인되었다. 각 지점에서 이상조위편차에 의한 흐름은 연평균 낙조류 세기의 16 ~ 41 %로 무시할 수 없을 정도이다. 조위편차, 바람, 조류잔차의 상호상관관계로부터 저기압의 중심이 한반도 서쪽에 가까이 위치해 있을 때 인천에서 남풍계열의 바람에 의한 북향류가 해수면을 상승시켰고, 한반도 통과 후 북풍계열의 바람에 의해 남향류가 해수면을 하강시켰다.

경기만은 한강과 임진강 수계의 하구역을 중심으로 황해의 중부해역을 잇는 매우 중요한 해역이다. 특히 경기만 해역의 연안개발로 인한 하구습지와 연안습지의 훼손이 가속화되고 있다. 이러한 갯벌과 해저 퇴적체의 변화에 대한 이해와 원인 규명을 위해서는 조석 잔차류의 역할이 중요함을 제시하였다(Kim et al., 2009). 하지만 경기만에서의 조석 잔차류에 대한 정량적 연구는 잘 이루어져 있지 못하며, 연간 변동성에 대한 연구도 흔하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 경기만 주수로인 석모수로와 장봉수로에서 1년간 연속 관측한 수층별 조류를 이용하여, 조석 잔차류의 특성과 조류분조의 특성을 정밀하게 분석하였다. Kim et al.(2009)이 제안한 이동평균(Moving average) 기법을 이용하여 연간 월별 그리고 수층별 자료로 확대하여 분석하였다. 또한 조류조화분해를 실시하여 이동평균 기법의 잔차류 특성과 비교하였으며 계절별 수층별 조류분조의 특성을 제시하였다. 비조석성분인 잔차류 산정에는 이동평균 기법과 조류조화분해법이 동일한 결과를 보였으나 단주기 변동성 분석에는 이동평균기법이 장점을 가진 것으로 보인다. 석모수로의 잔차류는 연간 낙조류 방향이며, 표층에서 20-40 cm/s, 저층에서 10 cm/s 미만으로 분석되었다. 장봉수로에서는 연간 창조류 방향의 잔차류는 표층에서 15-30 cm/s, 저층에서 20 cm/s 안팎으로써 여름철에는 강한 경압형 구조를 보인다. 본 연구에서는 해저면에 설치된 음파식 유속계 자료의 처리, 조석잔차류의 산정과 경기만 수로에서의 연간 잔차류 수직 구조와 변동성에 대한 결과를 제시함으로써, 경기 일대의 물질이동과 퇴적체 변동성 연구에 기본적 자료로 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

Water pollution in a semi-enclosed sea area such as a bay due to stagnancy of water has been a serious water environmental problem. Recently, some kinds of new methods to activate the tidal exchange between an inner bay and an outer sea area by control of a tidal residual current have been proposed. However, these methods have several problems, that is, I). deterioration in a natural view due to building of huge structures, II). increase of risk of navigation in case of a submerged structure, III). limition of sea area where a tidal current can be controlled and IV). difficulty in removing those structures in case of occurrence of an unexpected impact on water environment. In this paper, a new method is proposed, which can solve all the above problems, to purify water quality in a semi-enclosed bay by creation and control of a pattern of a tidal residual current. The tidal residual current is controlled by unsymmetric structures, which change the properties of resistance according to the direction of flow, arranged on the sea bottom. In this study, several numerical and hydraulic experiments of tidal current and particle-tracking for various arrangements of bottom roughness in a semi-enclosed model bay were carried out. As a result of experiments, it becomes clear that it is possible to generate a new tidal residual current and to activate a tidal exchange by only operation of bottom roughness arrangement.

영일만의 해수순환에 영향을 미치는 조석잔차류와 형산강 하천수의 거동 특성을 규명하기 위하여 2차원 수치모형실험을 수행하였다. 수치모형실험의 결과는 기존의 관측자료들과 잘 일치하였으며, 영일만의 북쪽 달만갑 연안으로부터 포항신항을 거쳐 장기갑 연안을 따라 외해로 빠져나가는 조석잔차류 거동을 잘 재현하였다. 영일만의 잔차류에 대한 조류의 영향은 미약하며 파랑이나 바람에 의한 영향이 크지만 영일만의 전형적인 조석잔차류의 거동에 미치는 형산강 하천수의 역할은 지배적인 것으로 나타났다.

This study analyzed the current meter records along with wind records for over 500 days obtained in the Kangjin Bay, South Sea, Korea spanning from March, 2003 to Nov. 2005. Various analyses include descriptive statistics, harmonic analysis of tidal constituents, spectra and coherence, the principal axis, progressive vector diagrams. These analyses can illustrate the response of residual current to the local wind resulting in the net drift with rotational motion. Current speed ranges from -28 to 33 (cm/sec), with standard deviations from 6.5 to 12.9 (cm/sec). The harmonic analyses of the tidal current show the average form number, 0.12 with semi-diurnal type and the rectilinear orientation of the major axis toward northeast. The magnitudes of the semi-major range from 12.7 to 17.7 (cm/sec) for M2 harmonics, while for S2 harmonics, they range from 6.3 to 10.4 (cm/sec), respectively. In the spectral and coherency analysis of residual current and wind, a periodicity of 13.6 (day) is found to be most important in both records and plays an important role in the net drift of residual current. The progressive vector diagrams of residual current and wind show two types of behaviors such as unidirectional drift and rotational motion. It was also found that 3 % rule holds approximately to drive 1 (cm/sec) drift current by 30 (cm/sec) wind speed based on the correlation of the semi-major axis of wind and residual current.

Flow prediction was carried out through observational survey and three dimensional multi-layered numerical diagnostic model experiment to clarify the time and spatial structure of tidal current and residual flow dominant in the sea exchange and material circulation of the waters around Geumo Islands in the southern waters of Korea. The horizontal variation of tidal current is so large that it causes asymmetric tidal mixing due to horizontal eddies and the topographical effect creating convergence and dispersion of flow direction and velocity. Due to strong tidal currents flowing northwest-southeast, counterclockwise and clockwise eddies are formed on the left and right sides of the south of Sori Island. These topographical eddies are created by horizontal turbulence and bottom friction causing nonlinear effects. Baroclinic density flows are less than 5 cm/s at coastal area in summer and the entire sea area in winter. The wind driven currents assuming summer and winter seasonal winds are also less than 5 cm/s and the current flow rate is high in winter. Density current in summer and wind driven current in winter have a relatively greater effect on the net residual flows (tidal residual current + density current + density driven current) around Geumo Islands Sea area.

In order to understand the currents around Hampyung Bay and Haeje Peninsula, 2D numerical simulations for tidal currents and tide-induced residual currents were carried out. Dominant semidiurnal tidal currents have reversing form and flow NNE-SSW from northern Haeje Peninsula to Songi Island, E-S at northern Haeje Peninsula and NNW-SSE in Hampyung Bay. In flood, a part of currents from Imja Island~Nakwhol Island flow along the main stream flowing northeast at offshore region and the rest flow into Hampyung Bay flowing east along the northern coast of Haeje Peninsula. In ebb, currents from Hampyung Bay flow west along the northern coast of Haeje Peninsula and run together with the main stream flowing southeast at offshore region. The currents create an anticyclonic circulation in flood and a cyclonic circulation in ebb around Haeje Peninsula including Hampyung Bay. Tidal currents are accumulated on Doripo which located at the entrance of Hampyung Bay and show high current velocities. Tidal currents and tide induced residual currents are weak at the inside of Hampyung Bay which has narrow entrance, shallow water depth and wide intertidal zone. An anticyclonic eddy is formed around Gaksi Island as a result of tide induced residual currents. In northern coast of Haeje Peninsula, slow constant currents flow east. It is expected that a gradual change of sediment and an increase of flushing time for suspended materials are carried by tidal currents occurring in Hampyung Bay.
