oceanography of waters around the Korean Peninsula through the discussion after reading scientific
treatises related with physical oceanographic environment in the West and East Sea.
Paleoceanography
In the course, students learn the ocean in the past, especially the change of the ocean and the climatic
environment during the last glacial and interglacial period. They study past oceanic environmental
changes(ocean temperatures, oceanic circulation, circulation of nutrient salt, carbon cycle, and so forth)
which can be known by sedimentologic and geochemical analysis data of submarine sediments. Students
try to understand natural climate change of the surface of the earth by studying the result of the data
analysis of glacier samples. They also try to understand the link between marine environmental change and
climate change. In particular, students in this course intensively learn how to restore such past marine and
climate changes.
Special Topic on Ocean Science and Technology

We introduce current conditions and tasks of the field of ocean science & technology to the students.
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Ⅰ

Students try to understand the equation dominating the movement of the ocean and the atmosphere. By
applying this equation to real phenomena, they try to explain the phenomena.
Climate Physics
The climate system of the earth consists of various elements: the ocean, the air, the ground, the glacier
zone, the biosphere, etc. In this course, students study how each element in the system is connected and
in what physical process the distribution of energy, the process of mutual feedback system, and other
various phenomena happen.
Special Topics on Weather and Climate Hazards

In this course, students aim to further understand weather/climate disaster phenomena causing human,
social and economic damages. They try to scientifically understand such phenomena as cold wave, heavy
snow, heat wave, heavy rain, typhoon, drought and consider measures to come up with various scientific
and social issues related with these happenings.

Special Topic on Ocean General Circulation Model Ⅰ

In this course, an ocean general circulation model simulating ocean circulation is introduced. Students
compare the characteristics of each model and understand inner structures of a model.
Dynamics of Ocean Circulation

The ocean accounting for 70% of the whole earth has a variety of variable characteristics in space-time
level. This ocean variability appears in terms of variable characteristics of ocean circulation. In this course,
students try to understand the characteristics of ocean circulation and study the physical process
dominating this ocean circulation.
Ocean Turbulence and Mixing

This course explains characteristic of turbulence, dynamics, turbulence statistics theory and turbulence
spread. Students explore a turbulence process related with minute-scale physical phenomena to
understand the ocean mixing caused by the turbulence process.
Paleoclimatology
In order to understand the climate of today and the future, it is essential to understand the climate change
in the past. In this course, students learn scientific research methods, data, and theories related with
dramatic climate changes of the earth in the past.
Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Ⅱ

Students in this course learn the theory dominating the general circulation in the ocean and large-scale
wave.
Ocean turbulence
In this course, students aim to understand the basic characteristics of ocean turbulence, one-dimension
modelling, and the parameterization of turbulent mixing. They also study the type of one-dimension
turbulence models and their strength and weakness.
Ocean Wave Dynamics

Students in this course study the basic concept of ocean wave and linear/non-linear dynamics processes.
They are introduced the latest trend of the ocean wave research.
Climate Dynamics
Students in this course study the dynamics process of the air and ocean controlling the climate system.
They aim to study the equation dominating the flow of the air and the ocean starting from the basic fluid
dynamics equation and to understand the dynamics process of the air/ocean circulation by utilizing the
equation.
Polar Physical Oceanography

In this course, student try to understand the ocean circulation and the change of sea ice in the polar ocean
by using the observation and model outcomes of the Arctic and Antarctic Ocean. Then they study the
impact of the ocean circulation and the change of sea ice in the Arctic and Antarctic Ocean on the climate
of the entire earth.

one-dimension model. The purpose of this course is for students to try to understand basic equation,
perform numerical modelling in a simple case, visualize and analyze the outcome, and acquire the ability of
basic modelling and analysis.
Climate and Marine Chemistry

The ocean and the climate have close relations, connected by the biogeochemical cycling, Main
greenhouse gases(carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane) move through the exchange of materials
between the ocean and the atmosphere. This process have an impact on the speed of the climate change.
In this course, students learn the greenhouse gas exchange between the ocean and the atmosphere,
formation/elimination of biological greenhouse gas, climate change feedback, and marine environmental
change caused by the climate change. Methods for researching related marine processes are also
introduced.
Analysis of Ocean and Climate Data

In this course, students study methods to analyze a variety of ocean and climate data. They learn not only
basic ways to analyze data with mean and standard deviation but also useful statistical methodology for the
ocean and climate data such as probability analysis, empirical orthogonal function analysis, periodicity
analysis, regression analysis, and so forth. They aim to develop the ability to apply the methodology to real
data and directly analyze those data.
Special Topics on Ocean Science

Students learn a convergence topic in the field of ocean science and technology.
