  • Narrow (10-20 km wide) and steep (0.3-$2.4^{\circ}$) continental shelf off the eastern coast of Korea is covered with terrigenous clastic sediments reflecting the Holocene fluctuation of sea level. Surface sediments on the inner shelf consist of muddy sand and sandy mud with some gravels near the coast. However, sand or muddy sand, shell fragments and well rounded gravels occur near the edge of continental shelf at the depth of about 130-l50m. The coarse sediments near the shelf edge seem to be the relict or palimpsest sediments deposited under the nearshore environment during the low-stand or sea level due to so-called the Wisconsinan glaciation. Distribution of recent sediments near the coast and the inner shelf may reflect the affect of waves and currents precluding the deposition of fine sediment near the coast and on the shallow portion of shelf. Eastern Korean Warm Current also nay have played an important role to the transport and distribution of fine sediments from the south.

  • 위성에서 감지되는 조간대 원격 반사도는 함수율, 퇴적상, 지형과 생물체 등의 영향에 의해 결정된다. 따라서 다른 환경요인을 제거하지 않고 위성자료 값을 분류하여 퇴적상과 비교한다면 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 없다. 하지만 퇴적상과 다른 환경요인은 관계가 복잡하고 미묘하게 얽혀있기 때문에 위성 자료 값에서 정량적으로 분리하거나 고려하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 특히 mud flat의 조류로나 세곡 부분은 배수구배의 발달로 인해 표층이 빠르게 마르게 되어 매우 높은 광학 반사도를 보이고 이는 sand가 우세한 지역의 높은 광학반사도와의 구별을 어렵게 만든다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 위성자료의 원격반사도 값만으로 조간대의 표층 퇴적상을 분류할 경우 에러가 발생할 수 있는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 조간대 texture와 표층 퇴적상과의 관계를 파악하고자 한다. 6.6 m 해상도를 갖는 EOC 자료를 이용하여 조류로의 형태와 밀도를 알아내고, 현장에서 샘플 된 입도 자료를 분석하여 비교함으로서 상관관계를 알아보고자 한다. mud flat의 경우, 대부분 복잡한 texture 구조를 갖고 밀도가 매우 높게 나타났으며 mixed flat 지역에서는 직선 구조를 갖는 큰 조류로가 발달하며 일부지역에서는 표면수가 잔존함에 의해 조간대에서 가장 어둡게 나타났다. 반면 sand shoal 이나 chenier 등과 같이 sand의 함량이 매우 높은 곳에서는 지형이 높아 함수율이 매우 낮아 높은 광학 반사도를 보임을 알 수 있었다.

  • This study investigated the effect of the sediment phosphorus fraction sampled from the southern coast of Korea on the release characteristics of sediments by environmental changes of water quality. We conducted the release experiment in the laboratory for 20 days and measured the phosphorus fraction properties, the environmental factors of water quality, and the release rate of total phosphorus. The results showed a decrease in dissolved oxygen by the growth of microorganisms in the water layer, leading to the anaerobic condition in which the redox potential of the sediments decreased. As such, the decreasing variability of phosphates bonded to iron oxide in the sediment phosphorus was higher after 20 days of the release experiment than the first day. It means that the metal ions and the separated inorganic phosphorus transfer into the water when the iron oxide is reduced. The separated inorganic phosphorus is easily absorbed by the plankton. The analysis of total phosphorus in the water layer showed that it continuously increased to up to 0.304 mg/L for 20 days, and the release rate had a high correlation with the decrease of dissolved oxygen after 5 days of culture. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the characteristics of iron bonded to phosphorus in the phosphorus fraction and dissolved oxygen to manage the eutrophication of the system.

  • The present work is to introduce the preliminary experimental results for a primary hydrocyclones process in lake sediment thickening. A few cyclones based on the Rietema standard geometry were prepared. The test particles were sediments from a local lake and waste coal fly ash for a reference test. As a result of the chemical analysis, organic contaminants were abundantly found in smaller particles in overflow. Experimental results showed that the physical characteristics of particles, configuration of the cyclone and operating variables including feed solids concentration and volumetric flow rate could affect the separation efficiency. The limiting feeding velocity for the separation and enrichment of particles was 1.5 m/s, higher separation efficiency, in general, was obtained under the high velocity with the small cyclones.

  • The Yellow and East China seas received a vast amount of sediment $(>10^9ton/yr)$, which comes mainly from the Changjiang and Huanghe rivers of China and the Korean rivers. However, there are still no direct sedimentological-geochemical indicators, which can distinguish these two end-members (Korean and Chinese river sources) in these seas. The purpose of this study is to provide the potential geochemical-tracers enabling these river materials to be identified within the sediment load of the Yellow and East China seas. The compositions of major elements (Al, Fe, Mg, K, Ca, Na, and Ti) of Chinese and Korean river sediments were analyzed. To minimize the grain-size effect, furthermore, bulk sediments were separated into two groups, silt $(60-20{\mu}m)$ and clay $(<20{\mu}m)$ fractions, and samples of each fraction were analyzed for major and strontium isotope $(^{87}Sr/^{86}Sr)$ compositions. In this study, Fe/Al and Mg/Al ratios in bulk sediment samples, using a new Al-normalization procedure, are suggested as an excellent tool for distinguishing the source of sediments in the Yellow and East China seas. This result is clearly supported by the concentrations of these elements in silt and clay fraction samples. In silt fraction samples, Korean river sediments have much higher $^{87}Sr/^{86}Sr$ ratio $(0.7229{\sim}0.7253)$ than Chinese river sediments $(0.7169{\sim}0.7189)$, which suggests the distribution pattern of $^{87}Sr/^{86}Sr$ ratios as a new tracer to discriminate the provenance of shelf sediments in the Yellow and East China seas. On the basis of these geochemical tracers, clay fractions of southeastern Yellow Sea mud (SEYSM) patch may be a mixture of two sediments originated from Korea and China. In contrast, the geochemical compositions of silt fractions are very close to that of Korea river sediments, which indicates that the silty sediments of SEYSM are mainly originated from Korean rivers.

  • Analysis of high-resolution seismic profiles acquired from the southeastern continental shelf of Korea reveals that the late Quaternary transgressive deposits consist of six seismic units created in response to sea-level rise. These units with different seismic facies and geometry can be grouped into two distinct depositional wedges (paralic and marine) bounded by a ravinement surface. The paralic component underlying the ravinement surface consists of the sediment preserved from shoreface erosion and contains incised-channel fill, ancient beach-shoreface deposit and estuarine deposit. The top of paralic unit is truncated by a ravinement surface and overlain by marine component. The marine component consists of the sediment produced through shoreface erosion during landward transgression and contains mid-shelf sand sheet, mid-shelf sand ridge and inner shelf sand sheet. Such transgressive stratigraphic architecture of six sedimentary units is controlled by a function of lateral changes in the balance among rates of relative sea-level rise, sediment input and marine processes at any given time.

  • Two-dimensional trend-vector model of sediment transport is first tested in the tidal flat of Garolim Bay, mid-western coast of the Korean Peninsula. Three major parameters of surface sediment, i.e., mean grain size, sorting and skewness, are used for defining the best-fitting transport trend-vector on the sand ridge and muddy sand flat. These trend vectors are compared with the real transport directions determined from morphology, field observation and bedforms. The 15 possible cases of trend vectors are calculated from total sediments. In order to find the role of coarse sediments, trend vectors from sediments coarser than < 4.5 ${\phi}$, (sand size) are separately calculated from those of total sediments. As compared with the real directions, the best-fitting transport-vector model is the "case M" of coarse sediments which is the combined trend vectors of two cases: (1) finer, better sorted and more negatively skewed and (2) coarser, better sorted and more positively skewed. This indicates sand-size grains are formed by simpler hydrodynamic processes than total sediments. Transported sediment grains are better sorted than the source sediment grains. This indicates that consistent hydrodynamic energy can make sediment grains better sorted, regardless of complicated mechanisms of sediment transport. Consequently, both transported vector model and real transported direction show that the source of sediments are located outside of bay (offshore Yellow Sea) and in the baymouth. These source sediments are transported through the East Main Tidal Channel adjacent the baymouth. Some are transported from the subtidal zone to the upper tidal flat, but others are transported farther to the south, reaching the south tidal channel in the study area. Also, coarse sediment grains on the sand ridge are originally from the baymouth, and transported through the subtidal zone to the south tidal channel. These coarse sediments are moved to the northeast, but could not pass the small north tidal channel. It is interpreted that the great amount of coarse sediments is returned back to the outside of the bay (Yellow Sea) again through the baymouth during the ebb tide. The distribution of muddy sand in the northeastern part of study area may result from the mixing of two sediment transport mechanisms, i.e., suspension and bedload processes. The landward movement of sand ridge and the formation of the north tidal channel are formed either by the supply of coarse sediments originating from the baymouth and outside of the bay (subaqueous sand ridges including Jang-An-Tae) or by the recent relative sea-level rise.

  • 환형수조는 점착성 퇴적물의 이송특성 연구를 위해 가장 선호되는 실험 장치로 알려져 있다. 과거 많은 연구자들은 퇴적물의 이송특성, 특히 침식/퇴적 특성 조사를 위해 주로 수로를 이용한 실험적 연구를 수행하였는데, 최초의 실험적 연구들은 주로 직선수조에서 수행되었다. 그러나 입자간의 응집이 중요한 역할을 하는 점착성 퇴적물의 경우에, 직선수조 끝단에서의 자유낙하 및 재순환 펌프의 날개에 의해 응집된 토사가 쉽게 분리될 수 있어 그 타당성이 의문시 되어 왔으며, 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 환형수조가 고안되었다. 환형수조는 수면과 접하여 회전하는 상부링의 마찰력에 의해 흐름이 생성되기 때문에 시간의 제약 없이 흐름조건을 동일하게 만들 수 있다는 큰 장점을 갖는다. 그러나 환형수조는 원주유속의 속도차이 및 원심력으로 인한 2차 순환류를 형성시켜 반경 방향(radial direction)에서의 바닥전단응력을 불균일하게 하는 단점을 갖는다. 이러한 2차 순환류와 바닥전단응력의 불균일을 저감시키기 위하여 환형수조의 몸체를 상부링의 회전 방향과 역방향으로 직접 회전시키는 방법이 채택되어져 왔다. 한편, 환형수조의 상부링과 몸체를 서로 역방향으로 동시에 회전시키는 양방향 회전(counter-rotation)의 적용을 위해서는 2차 순환류가 최소가 되며 바닥전단응력이 균일해지는 최적 회전속도비에 대한 분석은 필수적 사항이다. 이를 위하여, 상부링과 몸체의 회전속도에 따라 변화하는 수조내부의 흐름특성 및 평균바닥전단응력에 대한 연구가 선행되어야만 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 전산유체역학을 이용하여 전북대에 설치된 환형수조의 상부링과 몸체의 회전속도에 따라 변화하는 수조내부에서의 흐름특성 및 바닥전단응력에 대한 분석이 수행되었다. 또한, 이를 기초로, 환형수조의 최적 회전속도비 산출을 위한 연구가 수행 중에 있다. 이러한 결과들은 추후 환형수조를 이용한 점착성 퇴적물의 침식/퇴적 등과 같은 이송특성 연구시, 퇴적물에 작용하는 흐름조건의 정밀산정을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
