GPS는 직접적인 시통 및 거리에 대해 제한을 받는 일반 재래식 측량으로는 관측하기 힘든 중ㆍ장기선 관측의 경우 기선결정에 대한 정확도와 활용성이 우수하다고 알려져 있다. 그러나 현재 실질적으로 관측하여 취득하고자 하는 위치정보를 얻기 위해 지역의 대소에 관계없이 고가의 이주파 수신 장비를 사용하고 있으며, 최적의 기선해석과 망조정에 의한 성과를 얻기 위한 데이터 처리과정이 엄밀하게 확립되어 있지 않다 이러한 이유들로 인하여 고가의 이주파 수신기가 여러 분야에 적용되고 있으며, 성과물를 산출하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이주파 수신기를 사용하여 전국에 산재하고 있는 국가 기준삼각점을 대상으로 관측을 실시하여, 일주파만을 처리하는 L₁ Only 방식과 이주파를 처리하는 L₁&L₂ 방식과의 비교 분석하여 일주파에 대한 정확도와 적용성 그리고 기선의 거리에 따른 한계성에 대해 검증하고자 한다.

남극세종기지 상공 중간권계면에서의 중량파(gravity wave)를 연구하기 위해 세종기지 유성 레이더로 관측한 유성 에코를 분석하였다. 2007년 이후 유성 에코의 공간적 이동으로부터 유성 관측 고도에서의 수평 바람 정보를 지속적으로 수집해왔다. 80-100 km 고도에서의 바람 프로파일에서 지구 규모의 성분인 평균 바람(Mean wind), 대기 조석 효과(Tides)를 제거하여 국지적인 규모의 중량파에 의한 바람 변화폭(wind variance)을 결정하였다. 월 단위로 평균한 결과로부터 중량파가 계절과 고도에 대한 뚜렷한 특징을 보이고 있음을 확인하였다. 남극 지역에서의 중량파는 동서방향의 바람(zonal wind)와 저층 대기의 남극 소용돌이(vortex)와 깊은 관련이 있을 것으로 생각된다. 남극 반도에 위치한 Rothera 기지에서의 관측 결과와의 비교를 통하여, 남극 반도에서 발생하는 중량파가 중간권과 저층 대기 사이에서 어떤 역할을 하는 지를 확인할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

In this study, we develop an algorithm to predict swell-like significant waves in the east coast of Korea using the directional wave gauge which is installed near Sokcho. Using the numerical wave model SWAN, we estimate wave data in open sea from the wave data observed through the directional wave gauge. Then, using the wave ray method with the open-sea wave data as offshore boundary conditions, we predict the swell-like significant waves at several points in the east coast of Korea. We verify the prediction methods with the SWAN and wave ray methods by comparing numerically predicted data against either target or measured data at the observation site. We can improve the prediction of the swell-like significant waves in the east sea of Korea using both the real-time wave measurement system and the present prediction algorithm.

The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics of wave transformation in the shallow water of the Nakdong River estuary due to variations in air pressure, air temperature, wind speed, and wind direction. We analyzed the correlation between weather factors and wind waves in offshore regions near Geoje Island and the Nakdong River estuary in April and May 2007. The weather and wind wave data were obtained from the automatic ocean observation buoy near Geoje Island operated by the Korean Meteorological Administration (KMA). For the estuary region, the wind wave information was the result of field observations, and weather data were obtained from the Busan Meteorological Station. Field observations of water waves in April and May showed that the maximum wave height decreased by about 2.2 m. M oreover, wave height decreased significantly by about 1.3 m due to the reduction in wave energy caused by the water waves propagating from Geoje buoy to the Nakdong River estuary. We conclude that offshore or wind waves coming into the Nakdong River estuary showed considerable height variation due to the prevailing weather conditions, especially wind speed and direction. In particular, headwinds tended to decrease the wave size in inverse proportion to the wind speed.

This study is carried out the investigation of nonlinear characteristics of the ocean based on the field wave observation data acquired the western sea area in Jeju island during one year. It is aimed to offer the fundamental data for Freak wave forecasting in real sea. For this, the nonlinearity parameters of ocean waves, which are Skewness, Atiltness, Kurtosis and Spectrum band width parameter, are introduced, and the parameters are compared and discussed with some characteristic wave components, ie, significant wave height, maximum wave height, and so on.

In order to estimate the height of long period wave from character of deep water wave, field observation is carried out three wave gauge are arranged by a straight line from the seashore to offshore direction and the result is analyzed. In addition, the existing theory of the mechanism for long period wave producer is verified by field observation, and the relation between deep water wave and long period wave of shallow area is examined. Observed long period wave is coincided with the existing theory for the most part. In order to add the change of time and space of long period wave, the height of long period wave is calculated by the composition of long period wave in each position. As a result, the relation of long period wave and deep water wave is presented more clear. Estimate formula is drew through them.

Characteristics of high waves occurred in winter season on the west coast of Korea were investigated by analyzing the wave data observed at five observation locations. Records of four different high waves were subjected to the analysis together with the corresponding meteorological data during those time periods. The significant wave height reached its maximum of 6.42 m on December 4th, 2005. It was clarified that the high waves occurred due to strong wind fields that were formed over the west sea of Korea when the extra-tropical cyclone was excessively developed. Characteristics of the high waves generated in the west sea seemed to be predominantly wind sea as the temporal variation of the wave height at the coast were closely related to those of the wind speed measured at neighboring weather stations.

An abundance of internal waves is observed by SAR in the Yellow Sea during summer. They are small scaled internal waves and are not relatively studied well compared to the ones in the East/South China Sea. These internal waves should be considered in the study of physio-biological properties of the Yellow Sea because the mixing of the stratified surface water caused by internal waves during summer is important for ocean biological environment, and they also affect the sediment transport and acoustic signal transmission in the continental shelf region. To understand the characteristics of internal waves, it is important to get the spatio-temporal information of internal waves simultaneously by executing in-situ measurements as well as the SAR observation. This study tracks the internal waves observed by SAR in the time series of temperature profile data by analyzing simultaneously acquired in-situ measurement data and RADARSAT SAR image on 29 May 2002.

Continuous measurement of nearshore waves around Korea over long period is very demanding to setup plans for prevention of disasters of port and coastal structures. In this respect, a new web-based system, termed as WINK, was established, which collects nearshore wave data from Korea Meteorological Agency (KMA), Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency (KHOA), and Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries (MOF) and provide them after quality control of the data. This paper describes technical aspects regarding collection and selection of the wave observation data, construction of wave hindcasting data, the methodology of quality control for the selected wave data, and overall process of building the web-based data providing system.
