In Mokpo coastal zone, the characteristics showing ebb-dominant tidal flow was confirmed by analysis of observed tide and tidal currents, Physical factors occurring ebb-dominant flow were reviewed. Influence of critical depth for drying, bottom shear stress, coastal reclamation, tidal amplitude, nonlinear tide, and eddy viscosity on the change of ebb-dominant flow was investigated by applying a two-dimensional circulation model. The simulation results for a variety of conditions showed that eddy viscosity and critical depth for drying does little or no impact on the generation of asymmetric flow. Strong bottom friction stress makes ebb-dominant flow clearly. Change of tidal flat into land swells ebb- dominant flow, and change of tidal flat into sea disappears ebb-dominant flow. Nonlinear tides play a decisive role in the generation of asymmetrical tidal flow. Non-linear tides should be included in the open boundary conditions of hydrodynamic modeling in the Mokpo coastal zone.

Current observations were carried out in Jinhae Bay area during the period of January to February 1974. The data were synthetically analyzed and the characteristics of the water movement in Jinhae Bay were studied. The water movement in Jinhae Bay area is a reversing tidal current type and the Semi- diurnal tidal current is predominant. The ebb current begins at about high water time and the strongest current occurs at about 3 hour after high water. The flood current begins at 0.2-1.0 hour before low water and the strongest current occurs at about 3-4 hour after low water. The main ebb current flows to SE direction with the maximum welocity, about 100cm/sec and the lood flows to NW with the maximum velocity, about 70cm/sec. Generally, the ebb current in Jinhae Bay is more predominat than the flood current except at the west and the north coast area of Gadeog-do where the flood current is more predominant.

본 연구에서는 남해 주변해역의 조석과 조류의 구조특성을 해석하기 위해 현장관측결과와 수치실험결과를 이용하였다. 남해 주변해역의 해수유동은 2003년~2008년 사이 노량수로, 대방수로, 여수수로, 창선수로, 강진만, 앵강만에서 ADCP 및 RCM 9 유속계를 사용하여 각 정점에서 1개월 정도 연속측류를 하였다. 노량수로와 대방수로에서는 ADCP를 사용하여 표층에서 저층까지 3m 간격으로 측류하였고, 여수수로, 창선수로, 강진만과 앵강만에서는 RCM-9 유속계를 사용하여 표층에서 연속 측류하였다. 노량수로 상층에서 동-서 방향의 최대 유속은 약 165~175 cm/sec, 대방수로에서는 창 낙조류 최대유속은 약 200~270 cm/sec, 여수수로에서는 약 85~96 cm/sec 정도 나타났다. 강진만의 표층에서 최대유속의 크기는 창 낙조류 비슷하게 35~46 cm/sec, 앵강만 입구 부근에서 낙 창조류 최대유속은 20~22 cm/sec으로 발생하였다. 또한, 조류수치모형실험을 수행하여 남해 주변해역의 조류분포 특성을 전반적으로 해석하였다.

본 연구 결과에 의하면, 창조류 분포는 외해에서 유입된 북향류의 일부가 오동도 주변 방파제를 돌아서 신항 내부로 유입되는 양상과 가막막과 연결된 좁은 해협에서 압류되면서 유속이 증가하는 특성을 잘 보여주고 있다. 낙조류는 광양만을 빠져나온 남향류의 일부가 신항의 북방파제에 부딪히면서 신항에서 유출되는 수괴와 만나 오동도 주변 방파제를 돌아나오면서 가막만에서 유출되는 수괴와 합류하여 외해로 빠져나가는 분포를 보여주고 있다. 여수 신항의 해수유동은 주변 해역에 비해 아주 미약한 것으로 관측되었으며 항내 수질 및 환경 개선을 위해서는 유입원의 제거와 함께 해수 및 물질 교환을 위한 방안이 마련되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

To get the maximum diffusion boundary of thermal effluent of Youngkwang Nuclear Power Plant, paths of TGPS Buoy and temperatures of surface water are obtained to 4 times at spring tide during 1 year. According to the paths of TGPS Buoy, the flumes of thermal effluent are moved about 12km from outlet to SW or WSW direction. After 3∼4 times of tidal period the waters are reached to Chilsan Island because the ebb flow is more predominant than the flood flow in this area. At the spring and fall season, a sudden drop of surface water temperature is detected around 5km radius from the outlet. At the summer season, it is measured about 10km. On the other hand the flumes are continuously cooled down by the atmosphere condition at winter season.

우리나라 서해안에 위치한 함평만은 만 입구의 폭이 만 내의 폭에 비해 상당히 좁아 1.8km정도 밖에 안 되는 반폐쇄적인 만이다. 또한, 창조류보다 낙조류가 우세하고 외해의 영향을 많이 받지 않는 독특한 환경으로서 침식작용보다는 퇴적작용이 우세한 곳이다. 본 연구에서는 함평만 펄 조간대에 서식하는 저서동물의 군집 구조를 파악하고 주요 우점종들의 공간분포 양상을 파악하고자 하였다. (중략)

In order to estimate the characteristics of water movements around artificial upwelling structure, current measurements were carried out along lines E-W and S-N on May 4th(neap tide} and May 30th(spring tide), 2006. In the study area, southeastward flow was dominant during the field observations, and the pattern of water movement in the upper layer above 30m depth was different from that in the lower layer below 30m depth Vertical flow(w-component} around the artificial structure area and western area was shown to be upward flow, but downward flow occurred in the southern, northern and eastern parts at the neap tide. At the spring tide, the ebb current along E-W line showed upwelling flow in the eastern part and western area and showed upwelling flow near the artificial structure area and downwelling flow far away that one. At the spring tide, upward flow was dominant along S-N line during the flood current Volume transport by upward flow was higher than that by downward flow. Volume transport by upward flow during ebb of neap tide was greater than during flood current of neap tide, but was reverse at the spring tide.

The Seokmo and Yeomha channels are representative areas of high tidal energy in the Han River estuary. Surveys of environmental variables and abundance of Coilia spp. larvae, an anadromous fish, were carried out following the tidal cycle in August 2007 and August 2008. It was found that mean water temperature varied by <$1^{\circ}C$ across flood and ebb tides. A clear difference in salinity was observed between tides, with a high of 15.1 psu during flood tide, and a low of 0.8 psu during ebb tide. Coilia spp. larvae were significantly more abundant during the ebb tide than the flood tide (p<0.05). Since Coilia spp. larvae are anadromous fish, it seems that they use the ebb tide as a Selective tidal stream transport (STST) for horizontal movement in order to settle in the estuary (cultivation area), following hatching in the upper/middle courses of the Han River. A high percentage of larvae with improved swimming ability (measuring ${\geq}13.6mm$ in length) was observed during the ebb tide.

A series of anchor stations were occupied along the Keum EAstuary during six different periods of tidal and fluvial regimes. The results clearly show that the formation and evolution of the turbidity maximum play an important role in the sedimentary processes in this environment. The turbidity maximum in the Keum Estuary is primarily related to the tidal range at the mouth and is caused by the resuspension of bottom sediments. In this estuary, the turbidity maximum is not a permanent feature and shows semidiurnal, fortnightly and seasonal variations. Repetition of deposition and resuspension of fine sediments occur in response to the variation in current velocity associated with semidiurnal tidal cycles. The core of turbidity maximum shifts landward or seaward accordion to the flood-ebb succession. The turbidity maximum also shows a fortnightly variation in response to the spring-neap cycles. Thus, the turbidity maximum degenerates during neap-tide and regenerates during spring-tide. The freshwater discharge is also an important factor in the formation and destruction of the turbidity maximum. The increase in freshwater discharge in rainy season can create an ebb-dominant current pattern which enhances the seaward transport of suspended sediments, resulting in the shortening of residence time of suspended materials in the estuary. Thus, under this high discharge condition, the turbidity maximum exists only during spring-tide and starts to disappear as the tidal amplitude decreases.

The intertidal flat depositional environment of Southern Nam Yang Bay, west coast of Korea has been studied to understand textural, geochemical and mineralogical characteristics. The intertidal flat environment can be divided into two subenvironments, that is, the mud flat and the sand flat due to the sediment textures. From thd outer sand flat to the inner mud flat the grain size of the sediments decreases and the mud content increases. It is suggested that the intertidal flat environment is in the progradation of marsh deposits in the mud flat. The chemical composition of the sediments is related to the sediment textures. The chemical index of maturity of the mud flat sediments is higher than that of the sand flat sediments. The clay minerals of the sediments are chlorite, illite, montmorillonite and kaolinite.
