Abstract

Tidal asymmetry would occur owing to shallow water tides at the Western Coast of macro tidal area. Especially, as ebb dominance of Mokpo coastal zone is known as the most prominent in Korea, it had been studied by domestic researchers. The cause of ebb dominance in Mokpo area is considered due to extensive inter-tidal zone in Muan Bay, and this has been studied based on amplification ratio, relative phase and skewness of tide/tidal flow curves in order to analyze qualitative tidal asymmetry. Furthermore, it was possible to figure out tidal characteristics with the difference of tidal amplitude and phase with Mokpo Harbor by observing the tide for 15 days in Muan Bay, which showed 40 minutes shorter ebbing time than at Mokpo Harbor. In addition, tidal flow prediction data in Mokpo North Harbor and Mokpo-Gu were analyzed. Meanwhile, the basis regarding qualitative interpretation of bed sediment and suspended sediment was provided by examining the qualitative changes in tidal asymmetry for spring-neap tidal cycle through the PCA/SWA indices. In addition, by examining long-term changes of ebb dominance in Mokpo Port, tidal characteristics of the past, present and future in this area, which is related to tidal asymmetry, is also provided.

조석이 크게 작용하는 서해안 지역에서 천해조 성장에 기인하여 조위곡선에 비대칭 현상이 발생하는 경우를 볼 수 있다. 특히 목포해역의 낙조우세는 국내에서 가장 두드러지기에 국내 연구자들에 의해 낙조우세 현상과 관련된 다양한 연구가 수행된 바 있다. 목포해역 낙조우세의 근원은 무안만의 드넓은 조간대에 기인한다고 알려져 있는데 이러한 조석비대칭의 정량적 해석을 위해 진폭비 및 상대지각, 조위 및 조류속 곡선의 왜도 등을 고찰하였다. 또한 무안만에서 보름 동안 조위를 관측함으로써 목포항과의 진폭 및 조시차를 파악할 수 있었으며 무안만의 낙조시간이 목포항보다 40분 정도 짧음을 확인하였다. 이와 함께 목포북항과 목포구 조류예보자료 역시 분석하여 결과 도출에 활용하였다. 한편, 대소조 주기별 조석비대칭의 정량적 변화를 PCA 및 SWA 지표를 통해 검토함으로써 소류사와 부유사 거동의 정성적 해석의 토대를 제공하였다. 이와 함께 목포해역 낙조우세의 장기적 변화를 고찰함으로써 조석비대칭과 관련된 이 해역의 과거-현재-미래를 아우르는 조석특성 규명의 기초를 마련하였다.
