In this study, we analysed the state of the fisheries in Chungnam around 1910 from Hangook Susanji. As a result, there were about 30 ports in the west coast area in Chungnam, and we can classify their locations into 5 types Type I is located in small and mid sized rivers. Type II is located in a costal port. Type III is ports facing the open sea, and type IV is ports in a bay. Type V is ports on islands of coast. Species of fish are porges, mackerels, sting rays, croakers, hairtails, shrimps, etc. The base of fishing porge was Jukdo and Yeondo. The fishing banks of croakers are formed from Chilsantan, Jeonlado to the area of seashore, Chungnam. Hairtails were caught near all the areas of seashore. Salt manufacturing is done near all coasts of Chungnam, Seocheon-bay, Ungcheon-bay, Ocheon-bay, Anmyeon island, Taean, Dangjin area, etc represent this work. Especially, the salt which was produced in Taeangun was so famous that it was called ' Taeansalt'. In the Kum-river area there were 32 fishing villages. Freshwater fish were caught in the upper stream area and the mouth of Geumgang, down stream, was the center for producing Baengeo. There were 23 fishing villages, and the species consisted of croaker, hairtail, Forge, gray mullet, sting ray, sharks, anchovy, shrimps, etc in Biin-bay. The coast of Boryeong had about 33 fishing villages, but their fishing industry was not developed more than their good salt manufacturing. Though there are records that Chunsu-bay had 28 fishing villages, Taean peninsula and Garolim-bay had about 70 fishing villages, and Asan-bay area had about 55 fishing villages, they were developed a little, but not more than Weir fisheries or salt manufacture on the base of salt area and the tideland because these areas were just for farming. South of Anmyeon island of West coast island areas is the biggest area of Stow nets on stakes fishing and the island areas down mouth of Kum river were centers for producing porge.

Among wild marbled sole, Pleuronectes yokohamae caught in west coastal area, Chungnam, tumor-bearing fish were found. Parasites and pathogenic bacteria were not detected and CPE was not observed. Using the light microscope, the epidermal layer of wild P. yokohamae was significantly thickened compared to the normal skin. The lesion was formed papillary folds. Hypertropical epithelial cells revealed karyolysis, marked nucleolus and cloud swelled cytoplasm. In the epidermal layer of the lesion, X-cell that is characterized by oval and small pale nucleus and prominent nucleolus was observed. Dermal layer had newly formed vessels. The size of mucous cell in the papilloma lesion was significantly increased compared to the normal. In this study, no pathogens were found, so future works for finding cause of the papilloma in the P. yokohamae are needed.

방조제 건설로 형성된 호소의 수질악화가 중요한 사안으로 대두되면서 수질개선을 위한 다양한 대안이 제안$\cdot$시행되고 있다. 호소 및 연안 수질개선에 대한 근본적인 대책의 일환으로 유입 오염부하량(pollutants loads) 삭감 측면에서는 환경기초시설(하수종말처리장 등) 건설사업이 계획$\cdot$추진되고 있다. 반면, 유역의 오염부하량 삭감계획과 병행하여 수문개방에 의한 청정한 외해수 유입에 의한 해수유통으로 수질개선을 도모하는 경우도 있다. 시화호 수질보전대책의 일환으로 수문개방을 통한 외해수 유입은 1997년 이후 지속적으로 시행되고 있으며, 2002년 3월 최종 끝물막이 공사가 완료된 화옹지구 방조제 공사로 형성된 화옹호도 2007년 담수화 개시 이전까지 수질보전대책의 일환으로 수문(배수갑문) 개방을 통한 해수유통을 계획하고 있는 실정이며, 충청남도에 위치한 홍성$\cdot$보령방조제도 수문개방에 의한 해수유통을 실시하고 있다. 또한, 시화호 관리기관인 한국수자원공사에서는 세계 최대규모의 조력발전소 건설을 통한 발전 및 발전소를 통과하는 외해수 유입$\cdot$유출에 의한 수질개선계획을 추진하고 있다. 그러나, 수문개방 또는 인공구조물을 통한 외해수의 유입$\cdot$유출에 의한 수질개선효과는 인위적인 요소와 자연적인 요소, 장기적인 변화 및 단기적인 변화가 결합되어 매우 복잡한 양상을 보일 수 있기 때문에 체계적인 분석을 통하여 수질개선효과를 검토하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 현재 진행되고 있는 시화호 배수갑문 운영양상을 기준으로 하여 배수갑문 운영에 대한 외해수의 유입$\cdot$유출에 의한 수질변화양상을 단계적으로 구분하여 수질변화에 중요한 영향을 미치는 인자에 대한 이론적인 분석을 수행하고, 배수갑문 개방에 의한 수질개선효과를 최대화하기 위한 환경관리 방안 제시에 중점을 두어 수행하였다.

The aim of this study is to analyze the mid-term changes of beach and dune morphology at Sohwang beach, Korea using by Total Station. Measurements executed 4 times during two year. Based on ArcInfo as point cloud obtained through precise measurement data by Total Station, alteration of beach and dune was analyzed at DEM, of which cell size is about 1m. Since these artificial constructions have influenced current systems of this region, the large-scale sand movements above mentioned have occurred around the jetty and the sea-wall. There occurred sedimentation in the north of the Jetty and erosion in the south of the Jetty, which is installed at the central part of object area. The direction of recent topographic development does not coincide with that of wind, and, rather, topographic changes occurred mainly at beaches and dunes due to the transformation of coastal water flow caused by artificial structure nearby. If precise measurement is conducted periodically, and long term monitoring is carried out by installing equipment measuring movement pattern of sediment around artificial structure, cause of topographic change around the object area could be discovered.

An effect on the enhancing production of hollow 'jumbo' structures and the condition of artificial reefs (dice and hollow jumbo structure) by side scan sonar were described. The experiment of the capture of fish in the jumbo structures and control site (non-artificial site) by trammel net and traps was done twice every year from 1998 to 2000. The relative catches by trammel net between in the jumbo structure and in the control site was significantly different in number and in weight at 5% level and also that by traps significantly different in weight. The t-test of the catch of finespotted flounder showed that the hollow jumbo structure was regarded as a breeding field because the average size of the flounder in the jumbo site was smaller than that in the control site. The search on the condition of the artificial reefs (dice and hollow jumbo structure) was performed by side scanning sonar which showed various phase of it such as accumulated, dispersed, scouring and partly buried. The result implied that in the area of sand bottom with strong tide like the western sea of Korea, the current criterion for constructing artificial reef should be modified because of the sand moving on the bottom.

A marine air drone is a new device that can be used to respond to and prevent marine casualties. Determining the districts where marine air drones can be deployed helps the government decision makers identify efficient policy. The aim of this study is to develop a model using the fuzzy-analytic hierarchy process (F-AHP) and additive ratio assessment (ARAS) method to evaluate appropriate districts for deploying marine air drones. To verify the applicability of the proposed model, a case study was performed with respect to the Korea coast guard (KCG) districts. Since the deployed marine air drones are characterized by a high degree of overlap between the evaluation attributes. the F-AHP is used to determine the weights of identified criteria. The results of this study, show that missing people from the shore was the most important criterion for deployment of the drone. For ranking the local districts of the KCG, the ARAS is applied in the case study with the single goal of 50% reduction in marine casualties. Consequently, the highest priority district was identified as Mokpo, followed by Incheon, Seogwipo, Taean, Wando, Yeosu, Pohang, Tongyeong, Gunsan, Bolyeong, Jeju, Buan, Donghae, Sokcho, Ulsan, Uljin, Busan, Changwon, and Pyeongtaeg.

The gonad index (GI), reproductive cycle with gonad developmental phases, first sexual maturity and the sex ratio of the jedo venus, Protothaca jedensis, on the coastal waters of Boryeong, Korea were investigated by histological study. Samples were collected from the subtidal zone of Boryeong, Korea from January to December, 1999. Monthly changes in the gonad index in femal and male clams gradually increased from February and reached the maximum in May, and then the values rapidly decreased from June and reached the minimum in November as seen in variations of the reproductive cycle. The spawning period of this species was once a year between May and July, there was a spawning peak between June and July when seawater temperature was over 20$^{\circ}C$. The reproductive cycle of this species in female and male clams can be classified into five successive stages: early active stage (December to March), late active stage (February to June), ripe stage (April to July), partially spawned stage (May to July) and spent/inactive stage (July to January). Percentages of first sexual maturity of female and male clams of 30.1-35.0 mm in shell length were 52.6% and 60.0%, respectively, and 100% for the clams over 45.1 mm in shell length. The sex ratio of individuals > 30.1 mm in shell length was 1:1 (X$^2$ = 0.40, p > 0.05).

Age and growth of the pen shell, Atrina (Servatrina) pectinata japonica, on the west coast of Korea were studied based on 701 samples caught in April 1995 to March 1996. The results are summarized as follows: the relationship between shell height and ring radius in each ring group was expressed as a regression line. Therefore, it could be recognized that there is a correspondence in the formation of each ring. Based on the monthly variation of the marginal index (MI') of the shell, it was assumed that the ring of this species was formed once a year during the period of June to July. The relationship between shell height (SH) and total weight (TW) were expressed by the following equation TW = 5.906$\times$10/$^{-3}$SH$^{3.844}$. Shell length (SL) and shell height were highly correlated according to the following equation SL = 0.5277 SH +0.0934. The shell height-shell width (SW) relation was expressed by the following equation SW = 0.2681 SH -1.3757. Growth curves for shell height and total weight fitted to the von Bertalanffy's equation were expressed as: SHt=30.99(1-e-$^{-0.3212(t+0.9653)}$, TWt=657.94(1-e-$^{-0.3212(t+0.9653}$)$^{3.3844}$.
