Earth's magnetopause separating the fast and often turbulent magnetosheath and the relatively stagnant magnetosphere provides various forms of free energy that generate low-frequency surface waves. The source mechanism of this energy includes current-driven kinetic physical processes such as magnetic reconnection on the dayside magnetopause and flux transfer events drifting along the magnetopause, and velocity shear-driven (Kelvin-Helmholtz instability) or density/pressure gradient-driven (Rayleigh-Taylor instability) magnetohydro-dynamics (MHD) instabilities. The solar wind external perturbations (impulsive transient pressure pulses or quasi-periodic dynamic pressure variations) act as seed fluctuations for the magnetopause waves and trigger ULF pulsations inside the magnetosphere via global modes or mode conversion at the magnetopause. The magnetopause waves thus play an important role in the solar wind-magnetosphere coupling, which is the key to space weather. This paper presents recent findings regarding the generation of surface waves (e.g., Kelvin-Helmholtz waves) at the Earth's magnetopause and analytic and observational studies accountable for the linking of the magnetopause waves and inner magnetospheric ULF pulsations, and the impacts of magnetopause waves on the dynamics of the magnetopause and on the inner magnetosphere.

We calculate the theoretical line profiles for 32 Cyg in order to investigate the influence of various velocity fields. Line profiles are calculated with wind accelerations driven by Alfven waves and described by velocity parameters. The results for Alfvenic wave model show weakened line profiles. For the orbital phases ${\Phi}$=0.78 and ${\Phi}$=0.06 the Alfvenic models show strong absorption part due to very low densities at the surface of the supergiant. Hence, we conclude the velocity gradient of the wind near the supergiant could influence on the theoretical line formation.

Articulated tower platforms due to its compliant nature are more susceptible to the dynamic effects of wind than conventional fixed platforms. Dynamic response analysis of a double hinged articulated tower excited by low frequency wind forces with random waves is presented in this paper. The exposed super structure of the platform, housing the drilling and production facilities is subjected to mean and fluctuating wind loads, while the submerged portion is acted upon by wind driven waves. The fluctuating component of the wind velocity is modeled by Emil Simiu's spectrum, while the sea state is characterized by Pierson-Moskowitz spectrum. Nonlinearities in the system due to drag force, added mass, variable submergence and instantaneous tower orientation are considered in the analysis. To account for these nonlinearities, an implicit time integration scheme (Newmark's-${\beta}$) has been employed which solves the equation of motion in an iterative fashion and response time histories are obtained. The power spectra obtained from random response time histories show the significance of low frequency responses.

Numerical simulation on marine wind and sea surface elevation was carried out using both three-dimensional hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic models and a simple oceanic model from 0900 LST, August 13 to 0900 LST, August 15, 1995. As daytime easterly meso-scale sea-breeze from the eastern sea penetrates Kangnung city in the center part as basin and goes up along the slope of Mt. Taegullyang in the west, it confronts synoptic-scale westerly wind blowing over the top of the mountain at the mid of the eastern slope and then the resultant wind produces an upper level westerly return flow toward the East Sea. In a narrow band of weak surface wind within 10km of the coastal sea, wind stress is generally small, less than l${\times}$10E-2 Pa and it reaches 2 ${\times}$ 10E-2 Pa to the 35 km. Positive wind stress curl of 15 $\times$ 10E-5Pa $m^{-1}$ still exists in the same band and corresponds to the ascent of 70 em from the sea level. This is due to the generation of northerly wind driven current with a speed of 11 m $S^{-1}$ along the coast under the influence of south-easterly wind and makes an intrusion of warm waters from the southern sea into the northern coast, such as the East Korea Warm Current. On the other hand, even if nighttime downslope windstorm of 14m/s associated with both mountain wind and land-breeze produces the development of internal gravity waves with a hydraulic jump motion of air near the coastal inland surface, the surface wind in the coastal sea is relatively moderate south-westerly wind, resulting in moderate wind stress. Negative wind stress curl in the coast causes the subsidence of the sea surface of 15 em along the coast and south-westerly coastal surface wind drives alongshore south-easterly wind driven current, opposite to the daytime one. Then, it causes the intrusion of cold waters like the North Korea Cold Current in the northern coastal sea into the narrow band of the southern coastal sea. However, the band of positive wind stress curl at the distance of 30km away from the coast toward further offshore area can also cause the uprising of sea waters and the intrusion of warm waters from the southern sea toward the northern sea (northerly wind driven current), resulting in a counter-clockwise wind driven current. These clockwise and counter-clockwise currents much induce the formation of low clouds containing fog and drizzle in the coastal region.

양향성 대륙붕에서 1차 파동방정식은 양 해안경계에서의 바람응력과, 대륙붕폭에 걸친 바람응력의 회전효과를 갖는다. 황해에서 바람응력 회전효과는 대륙붕파를 발생시키는 힘으로서 무시될 수 있다. 켈빈파는 대륙붕파보다 약화될 때까지의 거리가 매우 크기 때문에 황해 북쪽만(별)을 거의 약화되지 않고 통과할 수 있다. 파동특성을 따라 적분하는 수치방법은 반대방향으로 전파되는 파동을 수용하기 위해 조절되었다. 보다 실제와 가까운 해안선을 사용한 결과, 모델재생이 해류에서는 개선되었으나 해수면에서는 거의 개선되지 않았다. 이것은 해수면을 주로 결정하는 켈빈파가 해저지형의 변화에 영향을 극히 적게 받음을 의미한다 보다 개선된 해수면 재생을 위해서는 동지나 해에서 황해로 전파되는 켈빈파의 에너지를 알 필요가 있다. 해안을 따른 순풍류와 골을 따른 역풍류의 기본구조는 계절풍에 의해 발생하는 황해의 계절순환을 뒷받침한다.

31Cyg는 Aur형의 장주기 쌍성으로, 확장된 대기를 갖는 초거성과 뜨거운 주계열성으로 이루어져 있다. 초거성의 wind는 질량 손실률이 크고, 차갑고, 낮은 terminal velocity를 갖는데, 일반적으로 Alfven wave가 wind mechanism으로 받어들여지고 있다. 이 논문에서는 31 Cyg에 대해 Alfven wave에 의한 모델을 적용하여 운동방정식을 직접 적분하였는데, 그 terminal velocity가 50∼80km/s로 관측값과 잘 들어 맞았다. 그리고 그 결과를 Kuin과 Ahmad(1989)의 경험적인 모델과 비교하였다.

Alfven 파에 의한32 Cyg의 항성풍에서 감쇄길이가 미치는 영향을 보기 위해 감쇄길이를 달리 주어 항성풍의 속도분포를 구하였다. 감쇄길이와 초거성 반경의 비가 $\lambda$ = 0.9, 1.0, 5.0을 갖는 모형과 감쇄길이가 거리에 따라 선형적으로 증가하는 모형의 4가지 경우를 비교하였다. 항성풍의 속도에 영향 미치는 것온 주로 Alfven 파에 의한 힘이고 중력과 압력에 의한 효과는 작았으며, 션형함수척인 감쇄길이 모형에셔논 별 가까이에서 감쇄길이가 짧기 때문에 일정한 감쇄길이 모형보다 급속히 속도가 증가함을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 경기만 근해 - 격렬비도와 덕적도 해역을 중심으로 - 에서 관측된 파랑 및 바람자료를 이용하여 바람과 파랑의 상호작용을 연구하였다. 2005년 1월에서 12월의 덕적도 부이 관측자료를 바탕으로 바람에 의한 파랑의 발생과 또 발생된 파랑에 의한 바람의 감쇄효과를 계산하였으며, 2005년 3월 19-26일과 5월 23-28일에 격렬비도 근해에서 관측된 자료를 이용하여 파랑이 발달할 때와 잔잔한 상태가 유지 될 때를 나누어 파랑 스펙트럼의 반응형태를 알아보았다. 또한, 시간에 따른 스펙트럼의 형태, 최대 에너지 주파수, 평형 영역의 기울기 등도 분석하였다. 관측풍속 $5-10ms^{-1}$의 범위에서 파랑에 의한 풍속의 감소는 최대 $2ms^{-1}$(응력${\sim}0.1Nm^{-2}$)를 보였고, $10-15ms^{-1}$일 때는 $3ms^{-1}$(응력${\sim}0.4Nm^{-2}$)의 차이를 보였다. 풍속과 파고의 상관분석에서도 관측풍속과 파고의 영향을 고려한 풍속(참풍속)의 경우 선형적인 상관도가 0.71에서 0.75로 약 0.04 정도 상승하였다. 잔잔한 상태에서 파랑이 발생할때 초기에는 4-5초의 단주기 파랑이 형성되고 발달과정을 거치면서 9-10초 주기의 장주기로 이동하며, 최대 에너지 주파주는 일정한 값을 유지하게 된다. 이 상태에 도달하는데 소요되는 시간은 약 6-7시간 정도였다. 또한 스펙트럼의 평형 영역 기울기는 파랑발생 초기에는 변화폭이 존재하나 풍파가 발달하면서 약 4.11의 값으로 접근하였다. 파랑 스펙트럼의 주파수대별 시간 변동과 마찰 속도와의 상관성에 있어 파랑 스펙트럼의 최대 에너지 주파수대 부근에서 높은 상관성을 보이는 경향을 보였으며 0.3 Hz와 0.35 Hz 에서 평균 0.80과 0.82 상관도를 보였다.

Background: Over the past three decades, gradual eustatic sea-level rise has been considered a primary exogenous factor in the increased frequency of flooding and biological changes in several salt marshes. Under this paradigm, the potential importance of short-term events, such as ocean storminess, in coastal hydrology and ecology is underrepresented in the literature. In this study, a simulation was developed to evaluate the influence of wind waves driven by atmospheric oscillations on sedimentary and vegetation dynamics at the Skallingen salt marsh in southwestern Denmark. The model was built based on long-term data of mean sea level, sediment accretion, and plant species composition collected at the Skallingen salt marsh from 1933-2006. In the model, the submergence frequency (number yr^-1) was estimated as a combined function of wind-driven high water level (HWL) events (> 80 cm Danish Ordnance Datum) affected by the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and changes in surface elevation (cm yr^-1). Vegetation dynamics were represented as transitions between successional stages controlled by flooding effects. Two types of simulations were performed: (1) baseline modeling, which assumed no effect of wind-driven sea-level change, and (2) experimental modeling, which considered both normal tidal activity and wind-driven sea-level change. Results: Experimental modeling successfully represented the patterns of vegetation change observed in the field. It realistically simulated a retarded or retrogressive successional state dominated by early- to mid-successional species, despite a continuous increase in surface elevation at Skallingen. This situation is believed to be caused by an increase in extreme HWL events that cannot occur without meteorological ocean storms. In contrast, baseline modeling showed progressive succession towards the predominance of late-successional species, which was not the then-current state in the marsh. Conclusions: These findings support the hypothesis that variations in the NAO index toward its positive phase have increased storminess and wind tides on the North Sea surface (especially since the 1980s). This led to an increased frequency and duration of submergence and delayed ecological succession. Researchers should therefore employ a multitemporal perspective, recognizing the importance of short-term sea-level changes nested within long-term gradual trends.

In coastal waters, more often than not, waves propagate on currents driven by tidal forces, earth’s gravity, or wind. There have been a number of studies for dealing with the change of wave spectrum due to tile presence of current. Based on the conservation of wave action, Hedges et al. (1985) have proposed an equation which describes the influence of current on the change of wave spectrum in water of finite depth. (omitted)
