In this study, characteristics of swell-like high waves in the East Sea were analyzed using observed wave data and predicted meteorological data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). And, the wave prediction system using the data from the NOAA has been established. Furthermore, the applicability of the system has been verified by comparing the predicted results with the corresponding observed data. For some case, there were two times of wave height increase and the second increase occurred in a calm weather condition on the coast which might cause casualties. The direction of wave energy propagation was estimated from observed wave data in February, 2008. Through comparison between the direction of wave energy propagation and the meteorological data, it turns out that the second increase of waves is originated from the seas between Russia and Japan which is far from the East Sea.

본 연구에서는 GPU(Graphic Processing Unit) 가속 분포형모형을 실제 유역에 적용하여 강우 유출모의 결과의 정확성과 모의시간의 효율성에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 분포형모형의 지배방정식은 운동파모형과 Green-Ampt모형으로 구성되어 있으며, 운동파모형은 유한체적법을 이용하여 이산화 하였다. GPU 가속 모형은 CUDA(Compute Unified Device Architecture) 포트란(Fortran)을 사용하여 개발된 모형으로 수치모의시 연산시간 단축을 고려한 모형이다. 모형의 정확성과 효율성은 미호천 유역에서 발생하는 강우유출현상에 GPU 가속 운동파모형을 적용하여 분석하였다. 수치모의 결과값은 대상유역에 속한 수위관측소의 관측값과 비교하여 정확성을 검증하였고, 수치모의 소요시간은 CPU(Central Processing Unit) 기반 운동파모형의 수치모의 소요시간과 비교하여 효율성을 검증하였다. GPU 가속 운동파모형의 수치모의 결과는 관측값과 유사한 결과를 나타냈으며, 수치모의 소요시간은 본 연구에 사용된 장비를 기준으로 최대 100배 정도 단축되었다.

Big swell is often generated offshore and damages the coasts after travelling long distance. In order to prevent coastal damages, wave measurements should be performed offshore as well as coastal waters around Korea. However, in-situ wave measurements are difficult because of high expense of instruments and high risk of operation. Satellite wave measurements using altimeter make it possible to get wave information from the sea difficult to execute field measurements such as the center of the East Sea or exclusive territorial waters. In order to use wave information from the satellite altimeter, it is important to verify altimeter wave data with in-situ data. This paper examines significant wave height data observed by ENVISAT altimeter by comparing wave data observed at Ieodo station.

In this study, continuous long-term observation is implemented with an ocean radar. Ocean radar conducts remote observation (combined) with ground-based radars, which enable a series of simultaneous observations of an extensive range of the coast with high frequency. An ocean radar for continuous long-term observation is operated at Samcheok on the east coast of Korea. Samcheok experienced tsunami damage in recent years and is the location of a nuclear power plant. In order to examine the reliability of the ocean radar, a pressure-type wave gauge, ultrasonic wave gauge, and ocean buoy are installed for the purpose of data comparison and verification. The ocean radar used in this study is an array-type HF-RADAR named WERA (WavE RAdar). The analysis of the data obtained from continuous long-term observations showed that the radar observations were in agreement with more than 90% of the wave data collected within a 25 km range from the center of two sites. Less than 1% of the entire observation data was unmeasured by the time series analysis. As a result of comparing the radar data with the direct observations made by the wave gauge, it was inferred that the RMS deviation is less than 20cm and the correlation coefficient was in the range of 0.84 ~ 0.87. Moreover, supported by such observations, a comprehensive monitoring system is being developed to provide the public with real-time reports on waves and currents via the internet.

This study is carried out the investigation of nonlinear characteristics of the field wave observation data acquired in 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 nonlinear parameters of ocean waves, which are Skewness, Atiltness, Kurtosis and Spectrum band width parameter et al., are introduced, and the parameters are compared and discussed with some characteristics wave components, ie, significant wave height, maximum wave height, and so on. As a results, we know that the parameters describe nonlinear characteristics of observed wave spectrum broadly, are feebly related with occurrence of abnormal maximum wave height, namely freak event, however the Kurtosis, $K_t$ which is a degree of peakness of mode of surface elevation distribution, has better relationship than others.

시간평균된 해안의 지하수위는 내륙쪽에 강우가 없는 경우에도 평균해수면 (Mean Sea Level)보다 1내지 2미터 정도 높은 것으로 관측되었다. 이러한 해안의 지하수위상승현상은 주로 파랑과 조석의 작용에 의해 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 지하수위상승에 미치는 조석 및 파랑의 효과를 현장관측결과를 통해 정량적으로 보여주었으며, 또한 이들 각각의 작용에 기인한 지하수위상승에 대한 해석해 및 최근 이론들을 제시하였다. 특히, 최근 지하수의 수리학적 모델링에 관한 연구에서 파랑의 침투 (wave runup infiltration)효과의 중요성이 강조되었는 바, 본 연구를 통해 종래에 보고된 바 없는 swash zone (shoreline과 runup limit사이)에서의 파랑의 침투속도(분포)를 지하수위관측자료를 이용해 간접적으로 산정함으로써 해안의 지하수위예측모델링을 보다 정확히 수행할 수 있으리라 사료된다.

Recently, there are frequent disasters by Swell-like Wave in the coastal area, Korea peninsula. This phenomenon (Swell-like Wave) has long period above 10 seconds compared with wind wave. To prevent these disasters by the long-period wave in advance, it's necessary to observe it in real time. But existing instruments for wave observation can not observe long-period wave because they mainly are aimed to measure the short-period wind wave. Therefore, in this research it is tried to develop the GPS based Long Period Wave Observation System which real time operation can be realzied in the sea.

해안에 전파해오는 천해파는 주로 불규칙파이며, 이들의 천해변이를 해석하는 데 있어 스펙트럼파로 해석하는 기법을 많이 사용해 왔다. 본 연구에서 비교 검토된 두 수치모형은 유동훈(1993)의 쌍곡형 평균파 모형과 정신택(1990)의 타원형 모형인데, 두 모형 모두 실험조건에 적용하여 1차 검증을 확인하였던 것들이다. 본 연구에서는 영일만 일대에서 관측된 자료를 이용하여 두 수치모형의 현장검증을 수행하였으며, 관측결과와의 비교로부터 두 수치모형의 장단점과 특징을 비교하였다. (중략)

On-site measurement of ship wave has been carried out in the vicinity of Mokpo inner harbour. The wave data were collected and logged 5Hz by the ultrasonic instrument for 12hour on May 17, 2006. The number of data was 216,000 and the maximum wave height was 81.41cm in normal weather condition. It was found that the wave conditions in this water area are predominantly affected by the ship-generated waved under normal condition. By comparing with the wind-generated waves in the open region which were irregular but with dominant directional characteristics, the existing harbor wave field was much more complex.
