  • To ensure the international competitiveness of the domestic offshore plant industry, a consensus has been formed regarding the requirement for large offshore basins for performing offshore plant performance verification. Accordingly, the Korea Research Institute of Ships & Ocean Engineering has built the world's largest deep ocean engineering basin (DOEB). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the characteristics of velocity distribution under various conditions of the DOEB. An independent measuring jig is designed and manufactured to measure the current velocities of many locations within a short time. The measurement jig is a 15-m-high triangular-truss structure, and the measurement sensors can move 15 m vertically through an electric motor-wire device. The current speed is measured under various impeller revolutions per minute and locations of the DOEB using the jig. The spatial distribution characteristics of the current velocity in the DOEB and the performance of the current generator are analyzed. The maximum speed is 0.56 m/s in the center of the DOEB water surface, thereby confirming sufficient current velocity distribution uniformity for model testing.

  • We developed the ocean disaster detection system(OD2S) which copes with the occurrences of ocean disasters (e. g. the red and green tide, the oil spill, the typhoon, and the sea ice) by converging and integrating the ocean color remote sensing using the satellite and the information technology exploiting the mass data processing and the pattern recognitions. This system which is based on the cosine similarity detects the ocean disasters in real time. The existing ocean color sensors which are operated in the polar orbit platforms cannot conduct the real time observation of ocean environments because they support the low temporal resolutions of one observation a day. However, geostationary ocean color imager(GOCI), the first geostationary ocean color sensor in the world, produces the ocean color images(e. g. the chlorophyll, the colored dissolved organic matter(CDOM), and the total suspended solid(TSS)), with high temporal resolutions of hourly intervals up to eight observations a day. The evaluation demonstrated that the OD2S can detect the excessive concentration of chlorophyll, CDOM, and TSS. Based on these results, it is expected that OD2S detects the ocean disasters in real time.

  • We have persistently constructed gridded products of surface wind/wind stress over the world ocean using satellite scatterometer (ERS and Qscat). They are available for users as the Japanese Ocean Flux data sets with Use of Remote sensing Observation (J-OFURO) data together with heat flux components. Recently, a new version data of the Qscat/SeaWinds based on improved algorithm for rain flag and high wind-speed range have been delivered, and allowed us to reconstruct gridded product with higher spatial resolution. These products are validated by comparisons with in-situ measurement data by mooring buoys such as TAO/TRITON, NDBC and the Kuroshio Extension Observation (KEO) buoys, together with numerical weather prediction model products such as the NCEP-1 and 2. Results reveal that the new product has almost the same magnitude in mean difference as the previous version of Qscat product and much smaller than the NCEP-1 and 2. On the other hand, it is slightly larger root-mean-square (RMS) difference than the previous one and NCEPs for the comparison using the KEO buoy data. This may be due to the deficit of high wind speed data in the buoy measurement. The high resolution product, together with sea surface temperature (SST) one, is used to examine a new type of relationship between the lower atmosphere and upper ocean in the Kuroshio Extension region.

  • The Arctic consists of numerous sedimentary basins containing voluminous natural resources and two of the world's major oil and gas producing areas. The western Siberia Basin in the Arctic region has the largest petroliferous province with an area of 800 ${\times}$ 1,200 km and produces more than 60% of total Russian oil production. The North Slope of Alaska produces about 20% of the U.S. output, i.e., 11% of the total U.S. consumption. Being small compared to those regions, the Canadian Northwest Territories and the Pechora Basin in Russia produce only fair amount of oil and natural gas. There are also many promising areas in the northern continental shelf of Russia. In addition to Russia, Svalbard and Greenland have been investigated for oil and gas. Gas hydrates are widespread in both permafrost regions and arctic continental shelf areas. The reserves of gas hydrates in the Arctic Ocean are about 20${\sim}$32% of total estimated amounts of gas hydrates in the world ocean. Mineral mining is well developed, especially in Russia. The major centers are located around the Kuznetsk Basin and Noril'sk. They are major suppliers of gold, tin, nickel, copper, platinum, cobalt, iron ore, coal as well as apatite. There are also some minings of lead-zinc in Alaska and Arctic Canada.

  • The study of Web MGIS(Marine Geographic Information System) based on the SVG(Scalable Vector Graphics) is mainly performed on effective methodologies which transform real world data to computing world data. Web GUI system has its own target on reliable data service by acquisition of geometric information using HYCOM(HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model), accurate measurement and graphical visualization. This type of raw data visualization can be built without software tools, yet is incredibly useful for interpreting and communicating data. Even simple visualizations can aid in the interpretation of complex hydrodynamic relationships that are frequently encountered in the marine environment. The Web MGIS provides an easy way for hydrodynamic geoscientists to construct complex visualizations that can be viewed with free software. This study proposes a Web GUI MGIS using FVCOM(Finite Volume Coastal Ocean Model). Finally, we design a Marine Web GUI system of Kosrae Coastal Waters integrating above data models. It must adds more ecological information and the various service item for approach more easily in order to user.

  • 해저지각 시추 프로그램(ODP: Ocean Drilling Program)은 지구과학 분야에서는 세계에서 가장 규모가 크고 성공적인 연구사업으로 해저 분지 연구를 통해서 지구의 진화와 구조를 밝히기 위해서 조직되었다. 이 프로그램은 지구과학자에게 다양한 해저 자료 및 시추 시료를 제공하여 지구 지각과 해저 분지의 기원과 진화 및 구조에 대한 연구에 매우 커다란 도움을 준다. 해저지각 시추 프로그램은 심해저 시추 프로그램(DSDP: Deep Sea Drilling Project)의 뒤를 이은 연구 사업으로 1983년부터 시작되었다. 한국은 1996년에 호주, 캐나다와 콘소시움을 형성하여 해저 지각 시추 프로그램에 가입했고 그 후 대만이 합류하여 환태평양 콘소시움(PacRim: Pacific Rim Consortium)을 이루었다. 한국이 해저지각 시추 프로그램에 가입한 후 한국사업단(KODP: Korean Committee for Ocean Drilling Program)이 발족되었고 상임위원회, 과학위원회 및 사무국이 결성되었다. 본 단보에서는 해저 지각 시추 프로그램 및 한국 사업단의 개요와 활동, 그리고 향후 연구 사업의 방향에 대해 언급하였다.

  • The world's first geostationary ocean color imager (GOCI) is a three-mirror anastigmat optical system 140 mm in diameter. Designed for 500 m ground sampling distance, this paper deals with on-orbit modulation transfer function (MTF)measurement and analysis for GOCI. First, the knife-edge and point source methods were applied to the 8th band (865 nm) image measured April 5th, 2011. The target details used are the coastlines of the Korean peninsula and of Japan, and an island 400 meters in diameter. The resulting MTFs are 0.35 and 0.34 for the Korean East Coastline and Japanese West Coastline edge targets, respectively, and 0.38 for the island target. The daily and seasonal MTF variations at the Nyquist frequency were also checked, and the result is $0.32{\pm}0.04$ on average. From these results, we confirm that the GOCI on-orbit MTF performance satisfies the design requirements of 0.32 for 865 nm wavelength.
