해상에 설치되는 담수화 공장의 가동에 따른 환경영향평가를 위하여 고온고염 배출수의 확산을 예측하였다. 진해만에 설치될 담수화 공장에서는 200ton/일의 해수를 유입하여 50ton은 담수화 하고 150ton은 고온고염수로서 배출한다. 배출되는 해수의 수온은 15℃ 상승되며, 염분은 약 1.33배 증가된다. 배출수의 확산예측에서는 2차원 조류모델로 이류를 계산하며, 몬테카르로 방법으로 난류확산을 재현한다. 배출수에 의한 수온상승의 예측에서는 대기를 통한 열량 방출을 감소요인으로 고려하였으며, 100일간의 계산을 통하여 평형상태의 확산분포를 재현하였다. 고염수에 의한 확산에서는 감쇠가 없는 것으로 간주하였으며, 약 1년간의 계산을 통하여 평형상태의 확산분포를 재현하였다. 평형상태에서 배출수에 의한 수은상승과 염분상승은 배수구 근처에 국한되어 나타났으며, 각각 약 0.01℃와 0.001‰의 상승폭을 보였다.

Gas hydrates are crystalline solids in which gas molecules (guests) are trapped in water cavities (hosts) that are composed of hydrogen-bonded water molecules. During the formation of gas hydrates in seawater, the equilibria and kinetics are then affected by salinity. In this study, the effects of salinity on the equilibria of $CO_2$ and R134-a gas hydrates has been investigated by tracing the changes of operating temperature and pressure. Increasing the salinity by 1.75% led to a drop in the equilibrium temperature of about $2^{\circ}C$ for $CO_2$ gas hydrate and $0.38^{\circ}C$ for R-134a gas hydrate at constant equilibrium pressure; in other words, there were rises in the equilibrium pressure of about 1 bar and 0.25 bar at constant equilibrium temperature, respectively. The kinetics of gas hydrate formation have also been investigated by time-resolved in-situ Raman spectroscopy; the results demonstrate that the increase of salinity delayed the formation of both $CO_2$ and R134-a gas hydrates. Therefore, various ions in seawater can play roles of inhibitors for gas hydrate formation in terms of both equilibrium and kinetics.

A micromodel was applied to estimate the effects of geological conditions and injection methods on displacement of resident porewater by injecting scCO₂ in the pore scale. Binary images from image analysis were used to distinguish scCO₂-filled-pores from other pore structure. CO₂ flooding followed by porewater displacement, fingering migration, preferential flow and bypassing were observed during scCO₂ injection experiments. Effects of pressure, temperature, salinity, flow rate, and injection methods on storage efficiency in micromodels were represented and examined in terms of areal displacement efficiency. The measurements revealed that the areal displacement efficiency at equilibrium decreases as the salinity increases, whereas it increases as the pressure and temperature increases. It may result from that the overburden pressure and porewater salinity can affect the CO₂ solubility in water and the hydrophilicity of silica surfaces, while the neighboring temperature has a significant effect on viscosity of scCO₂. Increased flow rate could create more preferential flow paths and decrease the areal displacement efficiency. Compared to the continuous injection of scCO₂, the pulse-type injection reduced the probability for occurrence of fingering, subsequently preferential flow paths, and recorded higher areal displacement efficiency. More detailed explanation may need further studies based on closer experimental observations.

The brine leakage is a tough problem in artificial freezing engineering. This paper takes the common soft clay in Wujiang District as the study object, and calcium chloride solutions with six salinity levels were considered. The 'classic' cooling curve method was employed to measure the freezing point of specimens after freeze-thaw. Results indicate that four characteristic stages can be observed including supercooling, abrupt transition, equilibrium and continual freezing, strongly dependent on the variation of unfrozen water content. Two characteristic points were found from the cooling curves, i.e., freezing point and initial crystallization temperature. A critical value for the former exists at which the increment lowers. The higher the saline content approximately linearly, lower the freezing point. In the initial five cycles, the freezing point increases and then stabilizes. Besides, the degree of supercooling was calculated and its correlations with water, salt and freeze-thaw cycles were noted. Finally, an empirical equation was proposed for the relationship of freezing point and three main factors, i.e., water content, saline content and freeze-thaw cycles. Comparison of calculated and measured data proves that it is reliable and may provide guidance for the design and numerical analysis in frozen soil engineering.

The observed ocean barotropic circulation is not completely explained by the classical wind-driven circulation theory. Although it is believed that the thermohaline forcing plays a role in the ocean barotropic circulation to some degree, how much the thermohaline forcing contributes to the barotropic circulation is not well known. The role of thermohaline circulation driven by changes in temperature and salinity in the Southern Ocean (SO) water masses on the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) transport is investigated using a coupled ocean - atmosphere - sea ice - land surface climate system model in a Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) context. Withthe implementation of glacial boundary conditions in a coupled model, a substantial increase in the ACC transport by about 75% in 80 years of integration and 25% in the near LGM equilibrium is obtained despite of the decreases in the magnitude of wind stresses over the SO by 33% in the transient time and 20% in the near-equilibrium. This result suggests that the increase in the barotropic ACC transport is due to factors other than the wind forcing. The change in ocean thermohaline circulation in the SO seems to play a significant role in enhancing the ACC transport in association with the change in the bottom pressure torque.

Eonyang amethyst deposits are thought to be spatially and temporally associated with the biotite granite of the Kyeongsang Basin. The examined euhedral quartz crystals in cavities in the aplite intruded biotite granite are colored-zoned from white at the base to amethystine at the tops. Three types of primary Inclusions were observed and three is representing each types are constructed to constrain the trapping conditions and fluid evolution involved during the formation of the amethyst. The intersection of the isochore representing the early fluid inclusions with solidus temperature of the host granite indicates initial quartz formation at about $600^{\circ}C$ and 1.0-1.5 kbars . Intermediate quartz formation, associated with the high-salinity inclusions, occurred at somewhat lower temperatures ($400^{circ}c$) and pressures of about 1 kbar. The amethystine quartz formed from $H_2O$-$CO_2$-NaCl fluids at temperatures between 280-$400^{circ}c$ and pressures of about 1 kbar. Early quartz is interpreted to have formed from fluids that either exsolved from or were in equilibrium with the granite at near solidus conditions, whereas the amethystine quartz apparently grew from fluids of at least partial sedimentary origin.

경상분지 백악기 화산암류내 배태된 함동열수맥상광체들로 구성된 화천리지역 동광상(대원, 구룡, 청룡, 화천)들은 구조운동에 수반되어 3회(I, II, III)에 걸쳐 광화작용이 진행되었다. 주 광화시기인 광화 I기는 광물들의 산출조직과 공생관계 등에 의하여 3개의 substage (Ia, Ib, Ic)로 구분되며, 황철석, 유비철석, 자류철석, 자철석, 황동색, 에렉트럼, 섬아연석, 방연석, 적철석 등의 광석광물들이 주로 산출된다. 이들 광물조성은 지역내 각 광상에서 유사하지만, 몰리브덴의 산출이 관찰되는 화천광상의 경우 광화I기 초기(Ia)의 광화작용이, 구룡과 청룡광산에서는 적철석의 산출로 특징지어지는 광화I기 후기(Ic)의 광화작용이 각각 우세하게 진행되었다. 이러한 결과는 관계화성암과 관련된 지역내 각 광상의 공간적 분포상태에 따른 열수유체의 진화정도에 의해 지배되었을 것으로 사료된다. 유체포유물 연구결과, 광석광물의 주된 침전은 9~1 wt.% 상당염농도를 갖는 광화유체로부터 $350^{\circ}$에서 $200^{\circ}C$에 걸쳐 진행되었다. 광화유체내 산소, 수소, 안정동위원소 연구결과, 화천리지역 열수계의 광화유체내 산소 안정동위원소비값이 광화작용의 진행에 따라 2.7‰로 부터 후기 -9.9‰로 감소함은 수소 안정동위원소비값의 감소 (-62‰${\rightarrow}$-80‰)와 함께, 상대적으로 낮은 water/rock 비값을 갖는 환경하에서 동위원소 교환반응을 이뤄 평형상태에 이른 초기 열수계내에 차갑고 동위원소적 교환반응이 거의 이뤄지지 않은 천수의 혼입이 점증하였음을 보여준다. 이러한 광화유체의 진화양상과 광상내 산출하는 광물공생관계 및 화학조성에 의한 열역학적 고찰결과는, 광화유체내 Cu는 주로 chloride complex상으로 이동되었으며, 이의 침전은 주로 천수유입에 의한 $fo_2$의 변화와 온도감소에 의하여 지배되었음을 알 수 있다.
