1982년 여름에 실시된 해양관측자료에 의하면 대마난류의 흐름은 한국해협 서수도에서 70cm/sec 이상의 강한 표면유속을 갖는 두 개의 분지 형태를 보였다. 부산에서 약 8km 부근에 나타나는 동한 난류로 불리우는 한 개의 분지는 한국 동해안을 따라 북쪽으로 흐르며, 부산으로부터 약 20km 떨어져 나타난 제2분지는 한국해협 통과 후 동쪽으로 향한다. 두 개의 흐름으로 분기되는 현상은 대마난류가 부산-대마도 단면에 이르기 이전에 형성되며, 두 분지의 용적 수송량 및 흐름의 폭은 큰 차이를 보이지 않는다. 분지의 갯수는 서수도의 폭에 의해 좌우되는 듯 하며, 두 분지의 흐름은 층두께의 변화와 서수도와 동해의 폭의 비율과 관련되는 것으로 보인다. On the basis of oceanographic observation conducted in summer 1982, the flow pattern of the Tsushima Warm Current definitely showed two branches with high surface velocity more than 70 cm/sec in the western channel of Korea Strait. One of the branches, the East Korea Warm Current, found about 8 km off Pusan flows northward along the east coast of Korea and the other branch, located at about 20km off Pusan flows east after passing the Korea Strait. The branching of two flows already occurred before the Tsushima Warm Current reaches the Pusan Tsushima section, and the volume transport and the widths of the two branches are not much different from each other. The number of branches may be controlled by the width of western channel and the flow of two branches may also be related to the variation of layer depth and the widening ratio of widths between the western channel and the Japan Sea (East Sea).

Sea Surface Cold Water near the Southeastern Coast of Korea: Wind Effect

변상경,Byun, Sang-Kyung The Korean Society of Oceanography 1989 韓國海洋學會誌 Vol.24 No.3

Cold water observed at sea surface near the southeastern coast of Korea in summers 1982 and 1983 was studied by using data of hydrography, sea level, wind and satellite image. In summer season when water column shows 3-layered structure a "full" upwelling occurs by southwesterly transient wind continuing for several days. During upwelling event, surface water of high temperature moved offshore, middle water of low temperature outcropped to the sea surface, and sea level was lowered, however, equilibrium depth of surface layer was not changed. It may be concluded that cold water at the surface originates from middle layer and strong surface front is a result of surfacing of seasonal thermocline. In order to see the relationship between position of surface front and wind input, a model of Csanady (1982) was applied in a rigid lid approximation. The results show that frontal position can be determined by wind input and water structure near the southeastern coast of Korea. Cold water in summer can appear at the sea surface only when there is wind larger than a minimum wind impulse of order $10m^2/sec$. 1982년과 1983년 여름 한국 남동 해안부근에서 관측된 냉수를 수온, 염분, 해면, 바람 및 인공위성 영상의 자료를 이용하여 연구하였다. 3층구조의 해양을 보이는 여름철에 수일 동안 지속되는 단속적인 남서풍에 의해 완벽한(full) 용승현상이 나타난다. 용승기간 동안에 고온의 표층수는 외해로 이동하였고, 저온의 중층수가 해표면으로 노출하였으며, 해면은 하강되었으나 표층의 균형(equilibrium) 깊이는 변화되지 않았었다. 관측결과는 해표면의 냉수가 중층으로부터 기원되고 강한 전선은 계절 수온약층이 해표면에 상승된 결과임을 보인다. 해표면 전선위치와 바람입력사이의 상관관계 파악을 위해 Csanady(1982)의 모델을 rigid lid 근사조건에서 해를 구하였다. 그 결과는 전선의 위치가 바람입력 및 한국 남동 해안부근의 해양구조에 의해 결정될 수 있음을 보이고 있다. 여름철 냉수는 $10m^2/sec$ 크기 정도인 최소 바람역적보다 큰 바람이 작용될 경우에만 해표면에 나타날 수 있다.

Abnormal differentiation of muscle is closely associated with aging (sarcopenia) and diseases such as cancer and type II diabetes. Thus, understanding the mechanisms that regulate muscle differentiation will be useful in the treatment and prevention of these conditions. Protein lysine acetylation and methylation are major post-translational modification mecha-nisms that regulate key cellular processes. In this study, to elucidate the relationship between myogenic differentiation and protein lysine acetylation/methylation, we performed a PCR array of enzymes related to protein lysine acetylation/methylation during C2C12 myoblast differentiation. Our results indicated that the expression pattern of HDAC11 was substantially increased during myoblast differentiation. Fur-thermore, ectopic expression of HDAC11 completely inhibited myoblast differentiation, concomitant with reduced expression of key myogenic transcription factors. However, the catalytically inactive mutant of HDAC11 (H142/143A) did not impede myoblast differentiation. In addition, wild-type HDAC11, but not the inactive HDAC11 mutant, suppressed MyoD-induced promoter activities of MEF2C and MYOG (Myogenin), and reduced histone acetylation near the E-boxes, the MyoD binding site, of the MEF2C and MYOG promoters. Collectively, our results indicate that HDAC11 would suppress myoblast differentiation via regulation of MyoD-dependent transcription. These findings suggest that HDAC11 is a novel critical target for controlling myoblast differentiation.

이흥재,변상경 한국해양학회 1985 韓國海洋學會誌 Vol.20 No.2

韓國 東海岸에서 夏季 沿岸流를 調査하기 위해 注文津 沿岸海域에서 海水의 物理特性 및 海流를 觀測하였다. 物理特性結果는 0∼100m 층에서 等溫線 等鹽分線, 等密度線이 沿岸으로 갈수록 下降하고 沿岸에서 外海로의 鹽分, 密度의 水平기가 比較的 强하게 存在하고 있음을 보였다. 最大 流速이 70cm/sec에 달하는 海岸線에 平行한 强한 南向流가 發見되었으며 觀測流의 流速과 shear가 地衡流와 大體로 一致하였다. To examine the summertime coastal current along the cast coast of Korea, we carried out hydrographic and current measurements in the coastal area of Chumunjin during July-August, 1982. Hydrographic results showed that isotherms, isohalines and isopycnals had a downward slope toward the coast in a layer of 0∼100m and that there existed relatively large horizontal gradients across shelf of salinity and density, mainly due to heavy precipitation in summer. It was found that there existed a strong southward flow along the coast reaching its maximal speed of about 70cm/sec in the nearshore area and that shear and speed of the observed current were coincident with orders of geostrophic current.

신창웅,변상경,김철수,이재학,김봉채,황상철,승영호,신홍렬 한국해양과학기술원 2007 Ocean and Polar Research Vol.29 No.1

To obtain the overall distribution patterns and characteristics of the East Sea Intermediate Water(ESIW), the historical data obtained by the Japan Maizuru Marine Observatory (MMO) and the Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute (KORDI) were analyzed. To obtain water characteristics of the ESIW on isopycnal surfaces, temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen were interpolated at every 0.01 interval of potential density. And then the interpolated values were averaged at the same potential density. This potential density average method preserved the salinity minimum layer more clearly compared to the depth average method. The potential density (σθ) range of the ESIW was 26.9~27.3. The representative potential density of the ESIW was found to be 27.2, because the characteristics of the ESIW was clear at this density. From the horizontal distributions of physical properties on the isopycnal surface of 27.2σθ it is suggested that the low salinity ESIW circulates anticlockwise over the whole basin with the high salinity intermediate water. The low salinity intermediate water extended from the northwestern part to the east along the sub-polar front and to the Ulleung Basin along the east coast of Korea.

1992년 울릉도 북서부해역에서 관측된 난수성 소용돌이의 구조특성

신홍렬,변상경 한국해양학회 1995 韓國海洋學會誌 Vol.30 No.1

1992년 3월부터 6월까지 속초앞 해역에서 동일한 난수성 소용돌이가 계속 관측되 었다. 이 난수성 소용돌이는 1991년에 형성되어 속초앞 해역에서 월동을 한 후 1992년 4~6월에는 약간 북상하였다. 3월에 관측되었을 때 소용돌이의 크기는 직경이 약 160km, 수심 약 330 m 였고, 상층 내부에 약 1$0^{\circ}C$, 34.2 psu의 균질층(혼합층)이 최대 폭 약 130 km , 수심 약 230 m 로 존재하고 있었으나 6월에는 약간 축소되었다. 낭수 성 소용돌이 표층의 최대유속은 약 65cm/s였으며, 수심 200 m에서도 약 20cm/s 이상의 큰 유속을 갖고 있었다. 이러한 유속구조는 대체로 지형류 평형을 잘 유지하고 있었으 나, 6월에는 약간의 차이가 나타났다. 또한 동한난류의 표층유속은 50~70 cm/s로 나 타나 소용돌이의 북향류와 비슷했으며, 동한난류는 주로 수심 200m 이내의 상층에서만 존재했다. A warm eddy was continuously observed to the east of Sokcho, Korea from March to June 1992. This warm eddy had been formed in 1991, wintered to the east of Sokcho, and moved northward a little during April-June 1992. The diameter and the depth of the eddy were respectively about 160 km and about 330 m in March. The homogeneous (mixed) layer of 10$^{\circ}C$ and 34.2 psu water was found at the upper layer with the maximum size of about 130 km and maximum depth of about 230 m in March. The size of the eddy and homogeneous layer decreased in June. Maximum current velocity of the eddy was about 65 cm/s at the surface layer and exceeded20 cm/s at 200 m depth. It is shown that the flow field was nearly in geostrophic balance, but there was a little difference in the current velocity between ADCP and geostrophic calculation in June. The surface velocity of the East Korean Warm Current(EKWC) was 50∼70cm/s which was very similar to the northward current velocity of the eddy. The EKWC water appeared in the layer upper than 200 m depth.

동해남서해역 와류의 물리적구조

이흥재,변상경 한국해양학회 1995 韓國海洋學會誌 Vol.30 No.3

1992년 11월부터 1993년 9월 사이 동해남서해역에서 조사한 인공위성 추적부 이, CTD, ADCP 자료를 이용하여 와류와 표층해류의 물리적 구조를 분석하였다. 부이의 이동궤적으로부터 울릉분지내에서 동한난류의 사행과 연구해역에서 다양한 크기의 시계방향과 반시계방향의 와류가 존재하는 것을 처음으로 직접 해류조사로 밝힐 수 있었다. 비교적 오래 지속되는 시계방향의 와류가 울릉분지내와 북부(일 본)분지의 남서쪽에서 관측된 반면에 반시계방향의 와류가 속초와 동해시 사이의 연안역에서 여름철에 관측되었다. 울릉분지의 와류는 적어도 관측기간 중에는 분지 내에 머물러 있었으며, 반시계방향의 와류는 냉수의 존재와 밀접한 관련이 있는 것 으로 나타났다. 북부분지의 시계방향 와류는 울릉분지의 것보다 크며 더 길쭉한 타원 형태를 지녔다. 울릉분지의 와류는 주축과 종축이 각각 120 km, 70 km이고, 회전주기는 13.6일, 평균회전속도는 24 cm/s, 평균 와동운동에너지는 392 $cm^{2}$/s$^{2}$ 이다. 북부분지의 와류는 주축과 종축이 각각 168 km, 86 km이고, 회전 주기는 14.9일, 평균회전속도는 29 cm/s, 평균 와동운동에너지는 629 $cm^{2}$/s/ sup 2/ 의 특성을 보였다. 와류의 평균이동속도는 두 경우 모두 약 3 cm/s이다. 울릉분지내에서 ADCP로 관측한 표층해류와 지형류의 상호일치는 울릉분지의 와류 가 지형평형을 이루고 있음을 시사한다. 관측된 와류는 해저지형에 강하게 지배 되어 있다. Eddies and surface current field in the southwestern part of the East Sea were investigated using satellite-tracked drifters, CTD, and ADCP from November 1992 to September 1993. Trajectories of surface drifters provided information for the first time on the meandering motion of the East Korean Warm Current in the Ullung Basin (referred as UB) and clearly indicated the existence of cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies of various scales. Anticyclonic eddies persisting for a relatively long period were observed in UB and the southwestern corner of the Northern (Japan) Basin (SNB), while a cyclonic eddy was found in the coastal area between Sokcho and Donghae during the summer. Analysis shows that the eddy in UB behaved as a stationary eddy at least during the observation period and the cyclonic eddy was closely related to the existence of a cold water mass. The anticyclonic eddy in SNB was larger than that in UB, but much elongated in shape. The eddy in UB is characteristic of major and minor axes of about 120 and 70 km, revolution period of 13.6 days, mean swirl velocity of about 24 cm/s, and mean eddy kinetic energy of 392 cm$\^$2//s$\^$2/. The eddy in SNB is described as follows; major and minor axes of 168 and 86 km, period of 14.9 days, mean swirl velocity of 29 cm/s and mean eddy kinetic energy of 629 cm$\^$2//s$\^$2/. The mean translational speed is about 3 cm/s for both eddies. The agreement of the surface current pattern in UB observed by ADCP with the geostrophic flow pattern may suggest that the eddy in UB was nearly in geostrophic balance. The eddy was found to be strongly bottom-controlled.

Seasonal Variations in the Low-salinity Intermediate Water in the Region South of Sub-polar Front of the East Sea (Sea of Japan)

신창웅,변상경,김철수,이재학,김봉채,황상철,승영호,신홍렬 한국해양과학기술원 2013 Ocean science journal Vol.48 No.1

Seasonal variations in the low-salinity intermediate water (ESIW) in the region south of the sub-polar front of the East Sea were investigated by using historical hydrographic data. The salinity of the representative density (sigma-0=27.2) of the ESIW was minimal in summer and maximal in winter in the region south of the sub-polar front. The selected four subregions showed different salinity variations. In the west of Oki Spur and the Yamato Basin, salinity fluctuated similarly, with a minimum during summer. In the Ulleung Basin and northwest of Sado Island, however, variations in salinity showed two minima, one is in winter and the other is in summer. These results imply differences in the flow path of the ESIW into the region south of the sub-polar front over time.
