Abstract

In this study, numerical experiments were conducted to identify distribution of rising flow and flux in the East Sea of Korea, where the coastal upwelling occurs. Temperature and salinity data from CTD observations and NIFS during summer 2013 were applied to the model. Numerical experiments were carried out with different wind speed (3, 6 m/s and 9 m/s) and direction (southerly and southwesterly), which represent the most frequent in summer conditions. As a result of calculation, upwelling flow rate was found to be highest in Pohang between five coasts(Hupo, Youngduk, Pohang, Ulsan and Busan). Comparing with southerly wind conditions, the rising flow rate is about 1.5 times greater when southwesterly wind was applied. Horizontal diffusion of the upwelling area is expected to have a speed of 17~22 km/day when a 9 m/s southwesterly wind is applied. If this wind continues over one week, a cold pool will be generated by upwelling that may reach to the Ulleung area.

본 연구에서는 연안용승이 발생하는 한국 동해연안을 대상으로 용승류 발생분포와 용승유량을 파악하고자 수치실험을 실시하였다. 여기서 연안용승이 발생한 2013년 하계의 CTD 관측자료 및 정선자료(NIFS) 에서 수온 염분 값을 모델에 적용하였다. 또한, Case 별 실험은 하계에 가장 높은 빈도를 보이는 남풍과 남서풍에 풍속의 변화(3, 6 m/s 그리고 9 m/s)를 주었다. 풍속이 강한 조건일수록 상승류의 강도와 분포범위가 넓게 나타났다. 그리고 남서풍은 남풍에 의한 용승역의 분포와 상승유속의 강도에 비해 강하고 넓었다. 동해안의 5개 연안에서 용승유량을 산정한 결과 포항, 영덕, 후포, 부산, 그리고 울산 순으로 나타나며 남풍에 비해 남서풍의 조건에서 용승유량이 약 1.5배 크게 나타났다. 남서풍 9 m/s에 의한 용승역은 약 17~22 km/day의 수평적 확산 속도로 바람이 1주일 이상 지속된다면 포항 남쪽 연안에서 발생된 용승현상에 의해 발생된 냉수대는 울릉도 근해까지 확장한다.
