Value for Marine Science
  • Understanding and responsive measures to circulation and flow of East China Sea
  • Importance in improving ocean and weather prediction accuracy of Korea as part of westerlies
  • Optimal location to conduct research on global climate change, typhoons, and atmospheric environment
  • Central Location for maritime traffic – over ten-thousand vessels pass-through: secured safe route
Research Activities
  • Long-term Monitoring of Marine Environment Change (water temperature, sea level rise, etc.)
  • Paleotempestology, expansion of low salinity of the Yangtze River
