본 연구는 낙동강 하구역에 유입되거나 발생된 부유(해안)쓰레기의 거동특성을 파악하기 위해 2003년 태풍 "매미" 내습시 하구둑 최대 방류량을 조건으로 해수유동장을 재현하고 재현된 유동장에 부유쓰레기로 대표되는 입자를 방출하여 입자들의 거동특성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 그 결과에 따르면 낙동강 하구역내 존재하는 부유쓰레기는 홍수유량시 72시간 경과시에 낙동강 하구역내 입자분포 및 거동이 안정상태에 도달하였다. 공간상으로는 진우도를 포함한 가덕도 동측 해안의 경우 초기 33시간까지는 40%까지 증가하나 그 외 주변해역의 경우 $20{\sim}40$ % 범위를 유지하였다.

Side Scan Sonar (SSS) is capable of acquiring real-time data for seabed scouring, bathymetry, mine countermeasurement, etc. In a shipyard, an SSS package is utilized to measure the water depth and find debris in the sea because a sufficient water depth and non-interruption have to be ensured before implementing an underwater installation such as a large thruster. This paper presents the application and operation method of an SSS for the construction of an offshore project.

Floating resin pellets including plastics were surveyed from 7 coastal beaches near Young-il Bay during summer and winter season on 1998 ~ 2000 year. Plastic fabrication materials in the survey were founded with 6 items using the following; resin pellets, plastic debris, styrofoams, cigar filters, wood pieces and charcoals. The results deduced in the areas are as follows: 1. The seasonal variability of the all debris is revealed that summer season were remarkably larger than those of winter. This is deduced it is attributed to meteorological effects, e.g, the seasonal wind strength, current vectors and resorts of crowded people for beach enjoy. And the distribution of plastic debris is Pohang Songdo $12.9ea/m^2$, Pohang Bookbu $8.8ea/m^2$, Togoo $4.9ea/m^2$, Chilpo $3.2ea/m^2$, Hwajin $1.4ea/m^2$, Wolpo and Guryongpo $0.8ea/m^2$ respectively. 2. Compared with each beaches, Songdo beach, northern part beach of Pohang city and Togoo beach have higher densities than those of the others. Especially, the highest densities of all debris were discovered in the Songdo beach of Pohang city. 3. The change of density over the whole year was similarly distributed in quantities and fabrication materials. 4. These surveys were founded that the most parts of plastic debris materials were made up with PE and PP.

The Lago Sofia conglomerates encased in the Cretaceous Cerro Toro Formation, southern Chile, represent a gigantic submarine channel system developed along a foredeep trough. The channel system consists of several tributaries along the trough margin and a trunk channel along the trough axis. Voluminous debris flows were generated ubiquitously along the tract of the submarine channel mainly by the failure of nearby channel banks or slopes. The flows transformed immediately into multiphase flows and resulted in very thick-bedded mass-flow deposits with a peculiar structure sequence. The mass-flow deposits commonly overlie fluted or grooved surfaces and consist of a lower division of clast-supported and imbricated pebble-cobble conglomerate with common basal inverse grading, and an upper division of clast- to matrix-supported and disorganized pebble conglomerate or pebbly mudstone with abundant intraformational clasts. The structure sequence suggests a temporal succession of a turbidity current, a bipartite hyperconcentrapted flow with active clast collisions near the flow base, and a cohesive debris flow probably with a rigid plug. The multiphase flow is interpreted to have resulted from transformation of clast-rich but cohesive debris flows. Cohesive debris flows appear to transform more easily into dilute flow types in subaqueous environments because they are apt to hydroplane. This is in contrast to the flow transitions in subaerial environments where noncohesive debris flows are dominant and difficult to hydroplane.

When natural disasters occur, including earthquakes, tsunamis, and debris flows, they are often accompanied by various types of damages such as the collapse of buildings, broken bridges and roads, and the destruction of natural scenery. Natural disaster detection and warning is an important issue which could help to reduce the incidence of serious damage to life and property as well as provide information for search and rescue afterwards. In this study, we propose a novel computer vision technique for debris flow detection which is feature-based that can be used to construct a debris flow event warning system. The landscape is composed of various elements, including trees, rocks, and buildings which are characterized by their features, shapes, positions, and colors. Unlike the traditional methods, our analysis relies on changes in the natural scenery which influence changes to the features. The "background module" and "monitoring module" procedures are designed and used to detect debris flows and construct an event warning system. The multi-criteria decision-making method used to construct an event warring system includes gradient information and the percentage of variation of the features. To prove the feasibility of the proposed method for detecting debris flows, some real cases of debris flows are analyzed. The natural environment is simulated and an event warning system is constructed to warn of debris flows. Debris flows are successfully detected using these two procedures, by analyzing the variation in the detected features and the matched feature. The feasibility of the event warning system is proven using the simulation method. Therefore, the feature based method is found to be useful for detecting debris flows and the event warning system is triggered when debris flows occur.

We discovered a halacarid mite species, Isobactrus tuberculatus Abé, 1996, inhabiting marine plastic debris on the coast of Jeju Island, Korea. The key characteristics of these Korean specimens were consistent with those in the original description of specimens from Hokkaido, Japan, including the presence of tuberculate membranous cuticles between the anterior and posterior dorsal plates, fusion of the posterior epimeral plates I and II, tibia II with a bipectinate seta, tibiae III and IV each with five setae, and a pair of subgenital setae in females. However, two small morphological differences were noted: the distance between the anterior and posterior dorsal plates was shorter than that in Japanese specimens, and the location of dorsal seta-2 was closer to the anterior dorsal plate in Korean specimens. We herein provide detailed illustrations of I. tuberculatus, based on the Korean specimens, with a brief taxonomic comment on the similarities among allied congeneric species. The genus Isobactrus is first reported in Korea.

원유나 벙커C유와 같은 지속성 기름이 해상에 유출되면 풍화과정을 거쳐 점도가 높아지고, 부유 쓰레기와 섞이게 되면 이를 수거할 수 있는 장비는 매우 제한적이다. 본 연구에서는 기존 유회수기의 외부에 위치한 부속장치들을 본체 내부로 배치하고, 컨베이어 벨트와 강제유입장치인 스위퍼 및 부력체를 탑재한 수집조로 구성하여 자항과 리모트컨트롤이 가능한 무인 컨베이어 벨트식 부유쓰레기 및 고점도유 회수장비를 개발하였다. 실해역 테스트에서 30 m의 거리를 1.2 knots의 속도로 자항하며, 전 후, 좌 우에서 안정적인 균형유지와 구동부의 정상작동을 확인하였다. 임시저장조를 이용한 유회수 성능테스트 결과, 최소 $7.8k{\ell}/h$에서 최대 $23.3k{\ell}/h$까지 유출유 회수가 가능하였다. 또한, 페트병 등 부유쓰레기와 유출된 기름이 혼합된 조파수조에서 실시한 회수량 측정 테스트 결과는 $7.7k{\ell}/h$로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 장비가 해상기름오염사고 시 현장에 신속하게 투입된다면 방제능력 향상에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대하며, 현재 운용중인 Portable 유회수기의 성능개선 연구에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In order to analyze the pollution characteristics of small plastic debris(SPD) ashore on the shoreline of coastal flow, 12 times of survey were conducted on the Gwanganri beach of Busan for nearly 3 years. The sampled stations on the beach were divided into 11 squared survey sites from St. G1 to G11(see [Fig. 1]) and all of SPD was sorted into 11 items like P1 to P11 according to the kind of plastic materials and products(see
