A Study on the Influence of the Saemangeum Sluice-Gates Effluent Discharge using the Particle Tracking Model

摘要

This study suggested a method calculating the influence of effluent discharge from Saemangeum sluice-gates using the particle tracking model.For 2017,we presented the seasonal effects of effluent discharge as probability spatial distributions and compared with the results of the water age,one of the indicators of transport time scale.The influence of sluice-gates effluent discharge increases radially around Sinshi or Gaseok gates,which are expected to be biased toward the south in winter and north in summer due to the effect of seasonal winds.Although the results of the prediction are limited to the 2017 situation,the method of calculating the influence of sluice-gates effluent discharge using the Lagrangian particle tracking model can be used to predict the future of the around Saemangeum.
