The three-dimensional hydrodynamic numerical model of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea has been further utilised to provide S$\sub$2/,K$\sub$1/,O$\sub$1/ tidal currents distribution in addition to previously provided M$\sub$2/ tidal current distribution(Choi, 1984), especially the vertical variation of horizontal current in the region. Model results have been compared with current meter data acquired from recent China-USA Marine Sedimentation Dyamics Programme (Larsen and Cannon, 1983). Results were also used to provide maps of the S$\sub$2/,K$\sub$1/,O$\sub$1/ tidal current constants and tidal ellipses at three depths to complement previous M$\sub$2/ tidal current information.

This paper describes the characteristics of tidal currents in the Gamag Bay by using the two-dimensional nonlinear hydrodynamic euation. The basic equations are derived by Navier-Stokes momentum equation and continuity equation and its characteristics critically are reviewed, and they are analysed by the implicit finite difference method. The numerical model is constructed two-dimensional(depth-averaged) simple layer model. This paper investigates the stability of solution and convergence of solution in application of the method to Gamag Bay, and the reproducibility of the simulation is also discussed in comparison with the results of field survey. The following items are clarifide through the numerical investigation; i)the reproduc-ibility of tidal range and currents are quite acceptable, comparing with the results of model tests and field data, and ii) tidal cycle for convergent solution is four tidal cycle, also, iii) bottom friction is successfully represented as c=(1/n))$h^{1/6}$.

The cold discharge from LNG(liquefied natural gas) terminal makes the water temperature around the terminal fall down. This temperature reduction may result in serious changes on marine ecosystem of the coastal area. The numerical model experiments of material transport and tidal circulation in the inner bay, Chinhae Bay are investigated in the dispersion of cold discharge from LNG terminal. The condition of ambient water is exposed to tide, tidal current and cold discharge temperature. Simple numerical model experiments highlight the importance of tidal circulation and cold discharge at each case and some results are discussed. The results of this study can be used as the guideline for the site selection of LNG terminals and long-term marine environmental impact assessment.

The tidal propagation for the Southeast Asian Seas is described via a high-resolution, two-dimensional hydrodynamic model by the equilibrium tide and co-oscillating tide at the Straits. Computed tidal distributions of four major semidiurnal tides (M$_2$, S$_2$, $K_2$, $N_2$) and four major diurnal tides (K$_1$, $O_1$, P$_1$, Q$_1$) are presented and results are also compared with coastal observations archived in IHO global tidal data base (Canadian Marine Environmental Data Service) and existing tidal charts including Schwiderski GOTD(Global Ocean Tidal Data) maps.

The water quality in Yongil Bay is getting worse due to the sewage and the waste water from the surrounding industrial complex. The study aims to simulate the current system that is necessary to build ecosystem model for the optium water quality control and clarify the correlation of current system characteristics with water quality in Yongil Bay. To clarify the characteristics of coastal water movement system and verify the applicability of the 3-D model, the current system was simulated using 3-D model baroclinic model which considers tidal current and density effects. As the results of numerical experiments, it is proved the 3-D model is the most applicable on appearing the current system of the stratificated Yongil Bay difference of density. Form the results of simulation considered tidal current only, it can be clarified that the water body flows in the inner bay through the bottom layer and flows out the outer bay through the surface layer in Yongil Bay. And the fresh water from the Hyongsan river and the thermal discharge form POSCO have a little effect on the current system in Yongil Bay, but the diffusion of heat and salt has an important effect upon the formation of the density stratification of the water quality distribution is closely related with the current structure characteristics as well as the tidal residual current system in Yongil Bay.

The integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) with the hydrodynamic model was conducted in order to revitalize the use of geographical information and to aid in the understanding of tidal circulation patterns. A 2D finite difference numerical model was used to simulate n tidal circulation in the Suyoung Bay in Busan, Korea. CIS, especially the ArcView S/W is used to input the data of the numerical model, and is also used for the visualization of model outputs on the ground in the loosely coupled method. In this paper, an electronic navigational chart (ENC), which provides more accurate information in the ocean and coastal areas than any other digital information, is used as a base map for this integration. With the help of GIS, the integration can support th understanding of oceanographic information.

The effect of seasonal wind on the tidal circulation in Jeju harbor was examined by using a numerical shallow water model. A finite element for analyzing shallow water flow is presented. The Galerkin method is employed for spatial discretization. Two step explicit finite element scheme is used to discretize the time function, which has advantage in problems treating large numbers of elements and unsteady state. The numerical simulation is compared with three cases; Case 1 does not consider the effect of wind, Case 2 and Case 3 consider the effect of summer and winter seasonal wind, respectively. According to result considering effect of seasonal wind, velocity of current vector shows slightly stronger than that of case 1 in the flow field. It can be concluded that the present method is a useful and effective tool in tidal current analysis.

To predict the oil-spill dispersion in marine waters, the oil-spill dispersion model based on Lagrangian particle-tracking method was developed and applied to Kwangyang and Jinju Bay. The tidal current movements to be required as input data of the oil-spill dispersion model were obtained by a two-dimensional numerical tidal model. Evaluation of tidal current movements using mean tide was successful. Modelling results were compared with the field data obtained at spill site. There were some descrepancies between modeling results and field data. However, the general pattern of modelling results was similar to that of field data. Provided the real-time tidal currents and more accurate wind data are supported, more favorable results can be obtained.

The water quality in Yeongil Bay is getting worse due to the sewage and the waste water from the surrounding industrial complex The study aims to simulate the current system that is necessary to built ecosystem model for the optium water quality control and clarify the correlation of current system characteristics with water quality in Yongil Bay. To clarify the characteristics of coastal water movement system and verify the applicability of the 3-D model, the current system was simulated using 3-D baroclinic model considered tidal current and density effects. As the results of numerical experiments, it is proved the 3-D model is the most appliable on the Yongil Bay where current flows slowly and the flow direction is varied by depths. From the results of simulation considered tidal current only, It am be clearly said the water in Yongil Bay flows in through the surface layer and flows out through the bottom layer. And the fresh water from the Hyongsan river and the heated discharge from POSCO have little effect on the current structure in Yonggil Bay, but have and important effect upon the density structure by diffusion of heat and salt. And the water quality distribution is closely related with the current structure characteristics as well as the tidal residual current system.

Tidal asymmetry and the associated sediment dynamics in the Keum River Estuary has been investigated from a numerical tidal model. Modeling efforts were focussed on the simulation of large drying sandflat exposed at the mouth of the Estuary and dynamic combination of two-dimensional estuary model and one-dimensional river model. Despite strong frictional attenuation within the estuary, the M4 tides reach significant amplitude, resulting in strong tidal distortion. Model results show that the asymmetry over the area exhibit more intense flood flows transport than do less intense ebb flows of longer duration. This causes filling of the estuary as evidenced by large sandflats spread over the inner area. The spatial distribution of peak bottom stress computed from the tidal model suggest that present tidal sedimentation regime may be altered significantly, especially in the approach channel to outer Kunsan port and downstream part of the dike, due to the construction of cross-channel barrier.
