Abstract:
Hydrographic features and circulation situation in the southern Huanghai Sea (SHS) are studied on the basis of the data obtained by China-Korea Joint Investigation of Ocean Circulation Dynamics in the SHS in the early spring of 1996,The main results are as follows:(1) The temperature-salinity characteristics and the basic circulation pattern in the SHS in the early spring are basically similar to those in winter revealed in the past,However,it is found in this investigation that the axis of the warm water tongue in the middle Huanghai Sea is obviously to the east as compared with wintertime situation and a small-range isolated water body with relatively high temperature and salinity appears in this region,Meanwhile,a middle-layer cold water and a surface inversion layer occur in the local regions of the SHS; (2) the results of direct current measurements not only verify the basic pattern of the circulation showing by temperature-salinity distributions,but also reveal much better some new phenomena occurring in the current field,especially the current around Cheju-do; (3) the Huanghai Warm Current water is a mixture of the Tsushima Warm Current water and the continental shelf water and originates mainly from the frontal region west of Cheju-do.

Abstract:
The velocity data measured by the acoustic Doppler velocimeter (ADV) and the wave surface data measured by a wave gage array are used to analyse the directional spectrum of wave generated with a segmented wavemaker,The results show that (1) the steadiness of 3-D random waves in time domain is better than their homogeneity in spatial domain; (2) Bayesian approach (BDM) is available for directional spectrum analysis from velocity data and wave surface data; (3) the directional spectrum analysed from velocity data has the same accuracy as that analysed from wave surface data and (4) the directional spectrum with appropriate accuracy can be obtained from three wave parameters,such as three wave surfaces,two component velocities and one wave surface.The preliminary criterion for measuring the accuracy of directional spectrum analysis is proposed.

Abstract:
The tilt movement of the Ryukyu island-arc system toward the ocean trench and the waving movement of the mantle stream in the island-arc-back-arc area are the power source of the movement of the Okinawa Trough,The Okinawa Trough is a negative structure under the tension field after Tertiary,Modern trough inherits the old trough and develops in its staged style.From Later Miocene,the increase of tension movement of the Okinawa Trough is deeply related to the increment of subduction movement of the Philippine Sea Plate,but this movement cannot cause a large-scale spreading.
