해양에서 물리적 에너지원으로는 조류, 조력, 파력, 해양온도차에너지(Ocean Thermal Energy : OTE)가 있으며, OTE 개발을 위해서는 우선 부존 자원량 파악과 개발적지 선정이 선행되어야 한다. 이를 위해 대상해역의 표층과 심층간의 수온차이 값(${\Delta}T$)에 대한 연중출현확률의 산정이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 ${\Delta}T$의 연중출현확률을 산정하기 위해 남해 해역을 대상으로 47년간(1961~2007) 격월 별(2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12월)로 관측된 93개 정점의 정선해양관측자료(국립수산과학원)를 사용하였다. ${\Delta}T$값을 정량화 하고자 정점 별 ${\Delta}T$(> $5^{\circ}C$, > $10^{\circ}C$, > $15^{\circ}C$)의 연중출현확률을 빈도분석과 조화분석 방법을 사용하여 계산하고 이를 공간적으로 광역적 규모와 지역적 규모에서 두 방법의 장단점을 비교, 분석 하였다.

The long-term variability of sea surface temperature in the East China Sea was reviewed based mainly on published literatures. Though the quantitative results are not the same, it is generally shown that sea surface temperature is increasing especially in recent years with the rate of increase about $0.03^{\circ}C$/year. Other meaningful results presented in the literatures is that the difference of water properties between layers upper and lower than the thermocline in summer shows an increasing trend both in temperature and salinity, suggesting that the stratification has been intensified. As a mechanism by which to evaluate the wintertime warming trend in the region, the weakening of wind strength, which is related to the variation of sea level pressure and atmospheric circulation in the western North Pacific and northern Asian continent, is suggested in the most of related studies.

The Saemangeum embankment construction have changed the flowing on the topography of the coastal marine environment. However, the variety of ecological factors are changing from outside of Saemangeum embankment area. The ecosystem of various marine organisms have led to changes by sea surface temperature. The aim of this study is to monitoring of sea surface temperature(SST) changes were measured by using thermal infrared satellite imagery, MODIS and Landsat. The MODIS data have the high temporal resolution and Landsat satellite data with high spatial resolution was used for time series monitoring. The extracted informations from sea surface temperature changes were compared with the dyke to allow them inside and outside of Saemangeum embankment. The spatial extent of the spread of sea water were analyzed by SST using MODIS and Landsat thermal channel data. The difference of sea surface temperature between inland and offshore waters of Saemangeum embankment have changed by seasonal flow and residence time of sea water in dyke.

A three-dimensional dynamic model was applied to Lake Paldang, Han River in this study. The model was calibrated and verified using the data measured under different ambient conditions. The model results were in reasonable agreements with the field measurements in both calibration and verification. Utilizing the validated model, we analyzed the spatial and temporal distributions of temperature, current, residence time, and spreading pattern of incoming flows within the lake. Relatively low velocity and high temperature were computed at the surface layer in the southern region of the Sonae island. The longest residence time within the lake was predicted in the southern region of the Sonae island and the downstream region of the South Branch. This can be attributed to the fact that the back currents caused by the dam blocking occur mainly in these regions. Vertical thermal profiles indicated that the thermal stratifications would be occurred feebly in early summer and winter. During early spring and fall, it appeared that there would be no discernible differences at the vertical temperature profiles in the entire lake. The vertical overturns, however, do not occur during these periods due to an influence of high discharge flows from the dam. During midsummer monsoon season with high precipitation, the thermal stratification was disrupted by high incoming flow rates and discharges from the dam and very short residence time was resulted in the entire lake. In this circulation patterns, the plume of the Kyoungan stream with smallest flow rate and higher water temperature tends to travel downstream horizontally along the eastern shore of the south island and vertically at the top surface layer. The model results suggest that the Paldang lake should be a highly hydrodynamic water body with large spatial and temporal variations.

황해의 25개 조사정점의 표층수에 대한 해양환경요인 및 식물플랑크톤 현존량의 월별 조사결과를 종합하여 주성분분석(PCA)을 실시한 결과 주성분 I에서는 변화를 26.6% 설명할 수 있으며, 이중 질산질소가 가장 많이 기여하였고, 이어서 용존무기질소, 규산규소, 수온, 용존산소, 암모니아질소 순으로 기여 하고 있었다. 주성분 II에서는 20.3%를 설명 할 수 있으며, 이중 용존산소가 가장 많이 기여하였고 그 외 엽록소 a, 수온, 염분, 규산규소, 식물플랑크톤 현존량 순으로 기여 하였다. 주성분 III에서는 15.1%를 설명 할 수 있으며, 이중 인산인이 가장 많이 기여하였고 그 외 염분, 아질산질소, 수온, 용존산소, 질산질소, 용존무기질소 순으로 기여하였다. PCA에 이용된 항목 중 부유물질은 제외한 모든 항목은 주성분 I, II, III에 5%이하 유의수준에서 의미 있는 상관성이 있었다. 주성분 I은 질산성질소, 용존무기질소, 규산규소, 인산인과는 긍정적인 상관성(p<0.0001)을 갖고, 수온, 암모니아질소와는 부정적인 상관성을 보였다(p<0.001). 주성분 II에서는 용존산소, 엽록소 a, 식물플랑크톤 현존량은 긍정적 상관성을 나타내었고, 수온, 염분, 규산규소와는 부정적인 상관성을 보였으며(p<0.0001), 주성분 III에서는 염분, 수온, 질산질소, 용존무기질소, 식물플랑크톤 현존량과는 긍정적인 상관성(P<0.0001)을 나타내었고 인산인, 아질산질소, 용존산소는 부정적인 상관성을 나타내었다 (p<0.01). 공간적인 분포특성은 조사정점에 따라 항목별 결과에 대한 분산이 커서 일정한 특성을 도출하기가 어려운 상태이나 대체로 PCA II축을 기준으로 상부인 $1/4{\sim}2/4$분면에 북부와 중부의 조사정점이 위치하고 음의 방향인 $3/4{\sim}4/4$분면에 중부와 남부의 조사정점이 위치하고 있어 북측의 307선과 308선 및 중부의 309선과 310선 그리고 남측의 311선과 312선으로 구분되어지는데 그 중에서 태안반도의 연안역인 307선의 03점은 계절에 변화가 가장 커서 분산의 폭이 심한 상태로서 다른 조사정점들과 구분되어진다. 전반적으로 북측해역에서는 용존산소, 엽록소 a, 식물플랑크톤 현존량이 남측해역에 비해 상대적으로 많은 반면, 남측해역은 수온과 염분 및 규산규소가 높은 상태이었다. 북쪽인 307선과 308선은 연안역과 외해에서 상대적으로 영양염류가 높았으며, 중부인 309선과 310선은 연안역과 준 외해역인 07점과 09점에서 영양염류가 높았었고, 남부 해역인 311선과 312선에서는 연안역에서 영양염류가 상대적으로 높은 경향을 나타내었다. 즉 황해 동부는 연안역에서는 조석간만의 차가 심하고, 새만금 및 시호호등과 같은 대규모의 간척 매립으로 육상의 오염원이 자정작용을 거치지 못하고 직접 연안으로 유입되고 있는 실정이다. 또한 10여 년 전부터 육지의 모래부족으로 다량의 바다 모래가 채취되어 왔고 그 량이 점차 증가추세이며, 중부외해역에서는 각종 폐기물 투기로 점차 영양염류의 부하량이 증가되고 있어 특히 질소계와 인의 영양염류 농도가 높아지고 있는 추세이다. 시간적 변동특성은 전반적으로 순환하는 형태를 유지하고 있다. 2005년 2월에는 질산질소, 용존무기질소, 규산규소, 인산인, 용존산소가 높았었으며 4월로 접어들면서 항목 간에 분산되는 경향을 보이면서 수온, 엽록소 a 및 식물플랑크톤이 증가 하면서 해역에 따라 좌우로 분산되는 경향을 나타내었고 6월에는 아질산질소를 제외한 영양염류가 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 8월에는 6월에 비해 수온이 높아지고 규산규소, 질산질소, 용존무기질소 등이 약간 증가추세이었으며 10월로 접어들면서 증가추세가 더 높아졌었고 12월에는 질산질소, 용존무기질소, 규산규소, 인산인, 용존산소가 높아졌었다. 2006년 4월에는 2005년 4월에 비해 수온, 엽록소 a, 식물플랑크톤의 현존량이 높아져서 전년 동시기와 약간 다른 양상을 보이고 있었다. 즉 동계인 2월을 시작으로 반 시계 또는 시계 방향으로 순환하는 형태를 유지하고 있으며, 4월은 2개년 비교해 보았을 때 해마다 해양환경에 따라 그 순환 정도 및 형태가 다를 것으로 추정된다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of applying density current generator (hereafter referred to as DCG to large lakes on the operating conditions of DCG, de-stratification, water quality improvement and inhibition of algae occurrence. As a result of a survey conducted to derive the optimum operating parameters of DCG in a condition to minimize eco-toxicity, the following conclusions were obtained. During the survey period, a marked stratification appeared in September to October 2011 and May 2012. At this time, the average depth of water to form thermocline was found to be $5{\pm}2$ m, so the location of discharge port for the operation of DCG was determined to be about 5 m below from the surface. To minimize the adverse effects of benthos and obtain the effect of water mixture at the time of water circulation, the mixing ratio of surface water and deep water was designed to be 3:1 by means of ecotoxicological assessment on the DCG operating characteristics. To select the appropriate operating hours for DCG, DCG was operated by 12 hr, 24 hr, 36 hr and 48 hr. As its result, the formation of thermocline did not occur during the operation of 36 hr. Also, It was effected that start reoperating from 3rd day after stop 2days under the condition of operated during 36 hr with calculated power consumption. Under the above conditions, the results of DO and water temperature analysis during the operation of DCG showed that the stratification, which was distinct previously, appeared to be weak, and relatively lower levels than those before operation were found as a result of water quality analysis on COD and chlorophyll-a, which leads to the conclusion that the water body is maintained at a stable condition due to the circulation of water by the occurrence of density current resulting from the operation of DCG.

To examine the movement of the freshwater discharged artificially into the estuary during ebbing period in the Keum River dike we observed surface salinity variations in three stations along the estuary channel in May 1998 and July 1997 and surface temperature and salinity along the ferry-route between Kunsan and Changhang during eighteen days in July 1999. Based upon the typical features of observed salinity variation, we analyzed the excursion and decay processes of the discharged water. When freshwater is discharged, the low-salinity water forms strong salinity front over the entire estuary width, which basically moves forth and back by tidal modulation along the channel, producing the sudden change of surface salinity with the front passage. Salinity distribution along the channel, which is deduced from time variation of mean salinity over the estuary width, after one tidal period from gate operation suggests that diluted low-salinity water is trapped to the front and surface salinity increases gradually toward the upstream region. This frontal distribution of salinity is interpreted to be produced by the sudden gate operation supplying and stopping of freshwater within about two hours. Daily repeat of freshwater discharge produces separation (double front) or merge between decaying and new-generated fronts depending on dike-gate opening time, and the front decays with salinity increasing if the freshwater supply is stopped more than two days. In addition, the observed fluctuations and deviations in surface salinity variation is explained in terms of the differences of fronts intensity, their transition time and temporal salinity front running along the channel, which can be generated due to artificial gate-operation for the discharging time and water volume in the estuary dike.

The influences of horizontal and vertical flow components including the stratification of water column and the wind field on the formation of oxygen-deficient water in summer in Jindong Bay, northern part of Chinhae Bay, were examined. Temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen in seawater, and direction and velocity of wind were observed in Jindong Bay from March 1998 to February 1999. Low concentration of 5 mg/L in dissolved oxygen (DO) appeared at the bottom layer from May to September. Extremely low DO concentration less than 3 mg/L was investigated in summer (July to August) when stratification was strongest due to abrupt vertical gradients of temperature and salinity in water column. Bottom waters with the extremely low DO concentration were observed even in spring (May to June) at the inner part of the bay. In summer (August to September), the bottom waters with the low DO concentration (less than 5 mg/L) existed at the water depth from 4 to 6 m, being moved upward to the surface layer compared to other seasons. Vertical components of residual flow, calculated by the direction and velocity of wind, in Jindong Bay in summer showed that locally prevailed northerly and westerly wind resulted in downwelling flow at the outer part of the bay and conversely, upwelling at the inner part of the bay. In addition, bottom current at the outer part corresponding to the downwelling area directed to the inner part, probably resulting in a transport of the particulate organic matter settled at the bottom waters to the inner part of the bay. The oxygen-deficient watermass, which was formed at the bottom layer of the inner part, was likely to transported to the surface layer by the upwelling flow.
