Abstract

In order to extract the spatio-temporal characteristics of long-term variability of the net heat flux on the sea surface in the East Asian marginal seas, empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis was conducted using data set calculated every 12 hours interval during 1978-1995. Among the first three modes explaining 73% of the total variance, the first mode having high peak at 1 year period indicates high variability area around the Sandong Peninsula and central and northeastern part of the East Sea. In the second mode which has spatial distribution of dipole type at the north and south, the peaks appear at 3.6 year and 2.3 year cycles. Time coefficient of the second EOF is believed to have close relation with the E1 Nino and has out-of-phase variation with NINO3 SST. Lagged correlation between NINO3 SST and time coefficient of the second EOF indicates four month time delay in the NINO3 SST. In the third mode which has opposite sign at the east and west, the periodicity of 6-9 year cycle has relatively clear appearance compared to other two EOFs. Also, high heat loss exceeding 800 W/$m^{2}$ in winter time occured at the south part of the Sandong Peninsula and Vladivostok. It reveals more frequent occurrence of about two times at the Sandong Peninsula than Vladivostok. The event is concentrated in January at Vladivostok, but it occurs primarily in December and January at the Sandong Peninsula.

동아시아 해역에서의 해양-대기 상호 작용의 장기 시 ${\cdot}$ 공간 변동 특성을 이해하기 위해 1978년부터 1995년까지 18년간 12시간 간격으로 연속적으로 산출된 해수면 순열속 자료를 이용하여 경험적 직교함수 분석을 하였다. 전체분산의 73%에 해당하는 3개 모드중, 1년 주기성이 우세한 제 1모드는 황해 산동반도 부근과 동해 중앙부 및 북동부 해역에서 변동이 크게 나타났다. 남쪽과 북쪽이 쌍극자형의 공간적 변동 양상을 보이는 제 2모드에서는 3.6년과 2.3년의 주기성이 우세하게 나타났다. 제 2모드 시간계수는 엘니뇨와 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 판단되며 태평양 동부 적도 해역의 해수면 수온 변동과는 반대 위상을 가지며 4개월의 시간 차이를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 동쪽과 서쪽이 쌍극자형의 변동성을 갖는 제 3모드에서는 6-9년 주기의 성분이 다른 모드에 비해 뚜렷이 나타났다. 또한 산동반도 남부해역과 블라디보스톡 외해에서는 겨울철 열 손실이 800W/$m^{2}$가 넘는 강한 열손실이 발생하는 경우가 빈번하며 산동반도 남부 해역에서의 발생 빈도가 블라디보스톡 남부해역보다 약 2배 정도 많은 것으로 나타났다. 발생 시기는 블라디보스톡 외해에서는 1월에 주로 발생하는 반면 산동반도 남부에서는 12월과 1월에 걸쳐 나타나는 차이를 보였다.
