This study was conducted bimonthly from February to December 2021 to reveal the ecology of Sargassum thunbergii in the intertidal zone along the coasts of Korea. Separate surveys on the period of embryo formation were conducted from February 2021 to December 2022. The growth of S. thunbergii began to increase in February, reached a maximum in June, and was at a minimum in October. Air vesicles were formed from February to June, April to August, and February to August on the east, west, and south coasts, respectively. Receptacles were observed from April to June on the east coast, but from April to August on the west and south coasts. The earliest release of embryos was observed in late May 2022 on the south coast, followed by early June on the east and west coasts. The average size of leaves, stems, and air vesicles was maximum on the east coast and minimum on the west coast, whereas leaf and internode intervals were maximum on the west coast and minimum on the east coast. Plant length, biomass, and the number of branches showed maximum values in the south coast and minimum values in the east coast.

본 논문은 남부 동해안의 5개 지역을 대상으로 최근 약 30년 동안 해안선의 장기적인 변화 경향을 파악하고, 중부 및 남부 동해안 연구를 종합하여, 동해안 해안선의 장기적인 변화 경향과 그 요인을 분석하였다. DSAS를 이용하여 해안선 변화량을 계산한 결과, 망양정 지역은 평균 28.9m, 조사 지역은 평균 6.4m 해안선이 후퇴하였고, 고래불 지역은 평균 25.0m, 대진 지역은 평균 10.6m, 봉길 지역은 평균 18.8m 해안선이 전진하였다. 동해안의 해안선 변화 경향을 종합하면, 1) 모든 지역 내에서 해안선은 전진과 후퇴 구역이 반복적으로 나타나고 있다. 2) 최근에 건설되거나 증축된 방파제와 접한 남쪽 구역에서는 해안선이 전진하였는데, 이는 북류하는 연안류의 영향으로 판단된다. 3) 해수욕장으로 이용되는 구역에서는 상대적으로 큰 해안선 후퇴 경향을 보인다. 4) 하천의 하구에서는 하천 상류 지역에서의 퇴적물 공급량 변화에 따라 해안선의 전진 및 후퇴가 다양하게 나타난다.

지난 20년간(1998-2017년) 한국해양학회지(바다)와 한국수산과학회지에 실린 한글 논문 중 우리나라 주변 바다 이름을 지도에 표기한 논문들을 대상으로 그 표기 방법을 살펴보았다. 지도에 표기된 바다 명칭들의 형태는 크게 세 가지 - 'East Sea(동해)와 Yellow Sea(황해)', 'East Sea(동해), Yellow Sea(황해), South Sea(남해)', 'East Sea(동해), West Sea(서해), South Sea(남해)' - 가 있다. 'East Sea'는 모든 논문에서 'East Sea'로 표기된 반면, 'Yellow Sea'는 'West Sea'와 혼용해서 사용되고 있었다. 'Korea Strait(대한해협)' 대신 'South Sea'의 사용 빈도도 높았다. 이 결과는 연구자들이 해안선으로부터 가까운 연안해역을 우리나라를 기준으로 지리적 방위에 근간하여 부를 때 사용하는 바다 명칭과 주변해에 대한 국제적인 바다 명칭을 혼용하여 사용하고 있음을 보여 준다. 따라서 우리나라 해양 수산 연구자들이 바다 이름표기에 관한 기준을 세우고 일관성 있게 표기하는 것이 시급하다. 이와 관련하여 이 연구에서는 연구논문 작성 시에 주변해와 우리나라 연안해역에 대한 바다 명칭을 서로 구분하여 사용할 것을 제안하였다. 즉, 주변해는 국제적으로 통용되고 있는 'East Sea(동해)', 'Yellow Sea(황해)', 'Korea Strait(대한해협)', 'East China Sea(동중국해)'로 사용하고, 이들 주변 바다에 포함되어 있는 연안해역은 우리나라를 기준으로 상대적 방위에 근거한 'Coastal Sea off the East Coast of Korea(한국 동쪽 연안 바다)', 'Coastal Sea off the West Coast of Korea(한국 서쪽 연안 바다)', 'Coastal Sea off the South Coast of Korea(한국 남쪽 연안 바다)' 등으로 표현할 수 있다. 다른 표현으로는 'East Korea Coastal Zone', 'South Coastal Zone of Korea', 'West Korea Coastal Zone'으로도 표현할 수 있다. 작은 규모의 특정 해역의 경우 해양지명(해상지명과 해저지명)을 사용하여 연구해역을 표기할 수 있다.

This study tries to reveal uplift rates inferred from relative and absolute ages on coastal terrace in the West and South Coasts of South Korea. Uplift rate from relative ages on Pleistocene coastal terrace in the West Coast rangesfrom approximately 0.059 to 0.282 m/ky, while a range of approximately 0.020~0.385 m/ky is calculated from the South Coast, suggesting that the South Coast shows higher rate than the West Coast. Based on absolute ages on coastal terrace during MIS 5 in the South Coast, on the other hand, the uplift rates 1 and 4 have ranges of approximately 0.042~0.062 m/ky and 0.051~0.087 m/ky, respectively, indicating that uplift rate in the South Coast is one-third to one-fourth to that in the East Coast. No research on absolute ages in West Coast terrace and lack of relative and absolute ages in the West and South Coasts are considered as the limit in this study.

This study tries to reveal and compare uplift rates in the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula, based on absolute ages from coastal terrace on the coast. The uplift rate in the East Coast from previous study ranges from 0.258 to 0.357 m/ka with a median rate of 0.262 m/ka and shows an increase trend from north to south. Median uplift rate of 0.082 m/ka with minimum and maximum rates of 0.053 m/ka and 0.127 m/ka, respectively, is calculated in the South Coast from previous and this studies. The uplift rate in the West Coast from 3 absolute ages in this study is 0.082~0.112 m/ka with a median rate of 0.090 m/ka. Based on these uplift rates in the southern coast of the Korean Peninsula, it can be concluded that since MIS 5, the East Coast has experienced 3 to 4 times faster uplift rate than the West and South Coasts. However, this study suggests that more discussion on whether these uplift rates are long-term tectonic movement associated with tilted warping movement since the Tertiary or short-term tectonic movement associated with isostatic rebound due to sea level change since the Last Interglacial is needed.

The east coast seems to have remarkably different features from the west and south coast in the geographical, geomorphological, and oceanographical senses. In this paper the auther wishes to introduce some results of investigation morphological characteristics of the river mouth in the east coast an of analysis of it's causes. There are various closing form in river mouth by many causes, but the east coast hs the same closing form(the ratio of closing; roughly 0.18), as well known, by the sand spit, and has not hydrological but littoral drift background. The river of the east coast is proved mature age from hypsometric analysis. The wave and longshore current must be principal factor to be considered, in the analysis of the closing phenomenon owing to littoral drift. The research of the blown sand is considered valuable for the next study of this subject.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphism of the blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) species complex sampled from the east coast of Korean was studied using a partial sequence of COIII gene (336 bp). Samples obtained from three localities on the east coast of Korea revealed four haplotypes with two clearly differentiated mitochondrial clades (termed clades B and E), separated by 4.2% of minimum sequence divergence. This pattern indicates no difference between east and south coasts of Korea. According to population genetic theory on evolutionary characteristics of mtDNA, we concluded that mtDNA introgression from M. edulis to M. gallprovincialis might be a source for mtDNA polymorphism found in mussels on the east coast of Korea.

Surface water temperature of a bay (from the south to the north) increases in spring and summer, but decreases in autumn and winter. Due to shallow water depth, freshwater outflow, and weak current, the water temperature in the central to northern part of the bay is greatly affected by the land coast and air temperature, with large fluctuations. Water temperature variations are large in the north-east coast of the bay, but small in the south-west coast. The difference between water temperature and air temperature is greater in winter and in the south-central part of the bay than that in the north to the eastern coast of the bay where sea dykes are located. As the bay goes from south to north, the range of water temperature fluctuation and the phase show increases. When fresh water is released from the sea dike, the surrounding water temperature decreases and then rises, or rises and then falls. The first mode of empirical orthogonal function (EOF) represents seasonal variation of water temperature. The second mode represents the variability of water temperature gradient in east-west and north-south directions of the bay. In the first mode, the maximum and the minimum are shown in autumn and summer, respectively, consistent with seasonal distribution of surface water temperature variance. In the second mode, phases of the coast of Seosan~Boryeong and the east coast of Anmyeon Island are opposite to each other, bordering the center of the deep bay. Periodic fluctuation of the first mode time coefficient dominates in the one-day and half-day cycle. Its daily fluctuation pattern is similar to air temperature variation. Sea conditions and topographical characteristics excluding air temperature are factors contributing to the variation of the second mode time coefficient.

This study tries to examine papers on coastal terrace in the East Coast of South Korea and to summarize formative age and elevation of the terrace. Spatial and temporal variations of uplift rate in the Coast based on absolute age published are also reviewed. The terrace in the middle part in the Coast from Goseong to Samcheok distributes in an elevation of 10-20 m and its formative age is MIS 5a. The terraces during MIS 5e and 7 develop on an elevation of 20-35 m and 60-80 m, respectively. The mid-southern part in the Coast from Uljin to Yeongil Bay has the terraces with elevations of 10-25 m and 25-45 m and their ages are MIS 5a or 5c and 5e, respectively. The terraces with elevations of 10-25 m and 30-45 m correspond to MIS 5a and 5e, respectively, in the southern part in the Coast from Homigot to Busan. Assuming that elevation of sea level during the formation of each terrace is the same as in the present time, uplift rates in the Coast range from 0.05 to 1.36 m/ky with an average of approximately 0.33 m/ky. The highest and lowest rates since MIS 5 are found in the Gyeongju (approximately 0.39 m/ky) and Pohang (approximately 0.19 m/ky) areas. With a consideration of elevation of sea level at that time, however, the middle, midsouthern and southern parts in the Coast show uplift rates of 0.16-0.28 m/ky, 0.20-0.36 m/ky and 0.24- 0.36 m/ky since MIS 5, respectively, suggesting that the southern part in the Coast has experienced relatively higher uplift rate.
