강진만은 삼천포수도, 노량수도와 지족수도를 통하여 유입되는 조류(tidal current)에 의해 해양생태계의 구성인자들이 영향을 받고 있다. 이중 강진만북부 입구와 만에서는 피조개와 굴양식이 활발히 행하여지고 있는 해역이다. 또한, 삼천포수도와 노량수도 입구에는 삼천포 하동화력 발전소가 위치하여 직, 간접적으로 온배수의 영향이 이들 해역의 생산력에 영향을 미칠 수 있으므로, 강진만의 일대 주변해역 식물플랑크톤의 현존량 및 군집구조로 이들 영향을 조사하였다. (중략)

In this study, a numerical particle tracking experiment was conducted to assess the distribution characteristics of freshwater exclusion resulting from the discharge of Gahwa Stream into Sacheon, Jinju, and Gangjin bays, located downstream of the Namgang Dam. The number of particles discharged into Noryang Channel, Daebang Channel, and Changseon Strait was compared by releasing 1000 particles through Gahwa Stream under three discharge conditions: no discharge, discharge during rainfall, and discharge during flood. Evidently, the percentage of particles in the Noryang Channel increased, whereas that in the Daebang Channel decreased as the discharge from the Gahwa Stream increased. Approximately 95% of the material located downstream of the Gahwa Stream generally escaped through the Daebang Channel. However, as the discharge from the Namgang Dam increased due to rainfall, the percentage of particles in the Noryang Channel increased, reaching 45.5% during floods.

From November 1968 to March 1970, a series of drift bottle experiments were carried out in waters adjacent to and in Chinju Bay with the following results. Of the bottles released, $50\~69$ per cent were recovered. 1. The circulation of Chinju Bay is usually caused by the tidal current except during the winter season when the northwest monsoon prevails to cause a wind-drift current. 2. Sea water in the southern part of Chinju Bay flows northward at ebb tide. The ebb current east of the central submarine bank in Chinju Bay flows northeastward toward Samchonpo Channel through the eastern depression of the bank contributing to form a cyclonic eddy. The ebb current west of the bank, however, flows northward toward Noryang Channel through the western depression of the bank. 3. The ebb current nea. the southernmost part of Chinju Bay flows eastward toward Chijok Channel. 4. At flood tide, the main stream of the tidal current in Noryang Channel flows eastward. Turning smoothly to the right, the southern branch of the flood current flows southward through the depression and along the isobaths at the western margin of the central submarine bank, while the northern branch, turning to the left, flows into the Chin-gyo Bay of Hadong. 5. flood current in the eastern area of Kwang-yang Inlet runs northeastward toward Noryang Channel. A small eddy develops near Kwanumpo of Namhae Island. 6. The results suggest that such a drift bottle experiment can be recommended for the attestation of currents, although it is not suitable for a quantitative study of coastal currents.

Some coastal oceanographic investigations in Kwang Yang Bay were carried out bimonthly from April to September (The first half period of the research project) in 1974. The behaviour of the waters, distributions of water temperature and salinity and diffusion characteristic by dye release experiments in the bay are studied for the problems of practical importance in connection with water pollution. Velocities and directions of tidal currents at five fixed stations were observed. And dye diffusion experiment was also carried out on the sea. According to the results from this study, the salinity of the water is lower, ranging from about $28\;\textperthousand\;to\;32\textperthousand$, on all over the surface in the bay with the cause that the fresh water flows in from the Sumjin river. Diffusivities in this sea by means of Rhodamine B diffusion elliperiment were $785.6\;{\times}\;10^2\;\textrm{m}^2/sec$ in major axis, $15.6\;{\times}\;10^2 \;\textrm{m}^2/sec$/sec in minor axis in the direction on patch after 30 minutes from the dye release.

This study simulate three-dimensional ocean circulation patterns using the EFDC model in the Kwangyang Bay and Jinju Bay, considering tide, water temperature and salinity. The numerical model results were verified using observed data. The model results well reproduced the observed data. As a result, ocean circulation patterns in the study area show convergence and divergence in the middle area of Noryang waterway and Daebang waterway, the residual flow patterns show typical two-layer circulation. According to the change of the density stratification in the Kwangyang Bay and Jinju Bay, the effect of fresh water is dominant in study area. In the case of Jinju Bay, although it is strongly influenced by the Namgang fresh water, also it is affected by Seomjin River when there is no discharge by Namgang Dam. On the other hand, the stratification of the Kwangyang Bay is relatively enhanced by the discharge of Namgang Dam.

Semi-quantitative analysis of $less-than-2{\mu}m$ clay minerals in thirty-nine superficial sediments from the Chinju Bay, southern coast of Korea, was made to reveal the distribution, provenance and dispersal pattern of fine-grained sediments. Additional nine samples were also taken from the Choryang Cheon (a river draining the kaolin-rich Hadong area) to investigate the influence of river a discharge. Grain size analysis for the Chinju Bay sediment samples was performed simultaneously as an aid to understand the sediment types and depositional environments. Except for the northeastern part, clayey mud predominates the entire bay. Average relative abundance of the four major clay minerals, I. I., illite, kaolinite, chlorite and smectite, is $55.1\%,\;23\%,\;21.5\%\;and\;0.4\%$, respectively. Although illite dominant clay mineral, the average content is about $10\~20\%$ tourer than that of the nearby continental shelf area. On the contrary, kaolinite content in the bay is about $10\%$ higher than that of the shelf area. Recent clay minerals of the Chinju Bay are mainly derived from the nearby inland area through numerous rivers and streams. Transport from shelf area, however. also seems to be important.

A Lagrangian particle tracking model coupled with the ECOM3D were used to study on the behavior of fresh water released from the Namgang Dam in terms of residence time in Kangjin Bay, South Sea, Korea. Model was calibrated until skill cores for elevation, velocity, temperature and salinity are satisfied over 85%. In the numerical simulation, particles were released in 1 hour time interval from the northern boundary. The different patterns of particle trajectory are identified under the varying dynamics from tidal to density-driven current. The average residence time of total particles are approximately 65.9 hours in the entire Kangjin Bay. The average residence time were increased from 55~65 to 70~80 hours during maximum discharge period. Discharge rate of fresh water and average residence time in the Kangjin Bay is high correlated with correlation coefficient over 0.81.

The physical oceanographic investigations in Kwang Yang Bay, were carried out for seven times from May 1974 to May 1975. The results of this survey show that the salinity of the bay water is generally lower than that of the adjacent sea water, and mean surface salt ni ty in March and July were 20.8-25.2\ulcorner and 31. 8-32. 5\ulcorner. The month with the minimum surface water temperature was January with $2.5~5.2^{\circ}C:$ the maximum monthly value was $ 23.8-24.2 ^{\circ} C$ in September. The surface water temperature were related to the heat budget at the sea surface in the bay water, the degree of relationship was good. The mean vertical stability in the bay water(0-10m)were 297XI0^{-6} in July and -IXto^{-6} in January. The computed vertical stability indicate that the vertical mixing could move down to the depths of 15m during late autumn and winter, but the rest of season hardly take place to the depths of tom.
