To understand the effects of the cooling water system of the power plant on the succession of sessile zoobenthos, a series of experiments were carried out at the cooling water system of Samchonpo Power Plant from Hay 1985 to May 1986. The lowest species diversity of the zoobenthos was observed at the discharge canal. This is probably caused by both increased velocity and temperature of circulating water. It is also noticeable that species composition of the zoobenthos, to a certain degree, was affected due to the impingement of meroplankton during the entrainment process. While the number of species attached on the experimental substrata installed in the thermally altered area is smaller than that in the intake canal, the biomass is increased as the increased temperature eliminates some species and in turn stimulates reproduction and growth of the others. It is interesting that relatively high similarity exists between the summer communities in the intake canal and the spring communities in the thermally altered area, and the same relationship is also found between the fall communities in the intake canal and the winter communities in the thermally altered area. Ecological index curves of the zoobenthos of the intake canal follows the fluctuation pattern of the thermally altered area in one or two months of elapsed time, probably due to temperature increase by the inflow of heated water discharged from the power plant.

Distributional patterns of benthic microalgae were studied in the tidal flats of Saemangeum lake, Korea, from March 2007 to October 2009. As benthic microalgae of tidal flats of Saemangeum lake, 44 species belong to 5 classes were identified. Diatoms predominated the benthic microalgal flora with 75.0% of total species occurred. Dominant species were Achnanthes lanceolata, Aulacoseira granulata, Cymbella tumida, Fragilaria construens var. ventor, Melosira varians, Navicula cryptocephala, Navicula cryptocephala var. veneta, Nitzschia palea, and Paralia sulcata. The cell density and biomass of benthic microalgae were highest in 2009, and clear tendency of increment was observed at D1 and D2 sites. In vertical profiles, cell density and biomass of the benthic microalgae showed maximum cells and biomass at 0~1 mm depth of sediments from all sampled sites.

In general, many marine organisms are attached to the bottom of a ship in operation or a ship in construction. Due to this phenomenon, the roughness of the ship surface increases, resulting in loss of ship speed, resulting in economic losses and environmental pollution. This study acquires / utilizes camera images attached to ship's bottom and underwater drones to check the condition of bottom. The acquired image will determine the roughness according to marine life by the administrator's visual confirmation. Therefore, by applying a filter algorithm to correct the image to the original image can help in the correct determination of whether or not attached to marine life. Various correction filters are required for the underwater image correction algorithm, and the lighting suitable for the dark underwater environment has a great influence on the judgment. The results of the research test according to the calibration algorithm and the roughness of each algorithm are considered to be applicable to many fields.

세포를 부착하는 기술은 세포를 배양하기 위한 가장 기초적이며 중요한 기술이다. 세포 부착기술은 대상물과 세포 간의 다양한 생물학적, 물리화학적 연관 관계가 있으나 세포와 부착 대상물 간의 복잡한 상호작용 때문에 완벽히 예측하기는 어렵다. 우리는 이 연구에서 siloxane 성분을 포함하고 있는 전구체인 tetrakis(trimethylsilyloxy)silane과 hydro-carbon을 포함하고 있는 전구체인 cyclohexane을 혼합하여 플라즈마 중합 박막을 만들고 그 박막에서의 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells과 bovine aortic endothelial cell 부착의 정도를 확인하였다. 플라즈마 중합 박막을 제작하기 위해 capacitively coupled plasma chemical vapor deposition system을 사용하였고 carrier gas로는 Ar을 사용하였다. Plasma RF power는 13.56MHz 70W를 사용하였다. Bubbler에서 기화된 전구체를 포함하고 있는 Ar carrier gas가 process chamber에서 혼합되고 두 전구체의 비율을 조절하기 위해 carrier gas를 0 에서 150sccm으로 변화시켜 플라즈마 중합 박막을 제작하였다. 플라즈마 중합 박막의 화학적 조성은 Fourier transform infrared absorption spectroscopy와 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy를 이용하여 측정하였고, 생물학적 세포 부착 정도는 현미경을 통해 관찰하였다. 또한, 물과 박막의 접촉각(Water contact angle)을 측정함으로써 본 박막과 세포 부착에서의 친, 소수성의 연관성을 확인하였다. Tetrakis(trimethylsilyloxy)silane를 전구체를 사용한 박막에서 세포 부착 억제 표면특성이 관찰되었고, 주입되는 cyclohexane 비율이 늘어날수록 세포부착 가능한 표면 특성을 보였다. 결과적으로, 전구체인 tetrakis(trimethylsilyloxy)silane와 cyclohexane의 비율을 조절함으로써 세포의 부착정도를 제어할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

초음파 발신기(핑거)에 의해 원격으로 해양생물을 추적하는 방법(이하 바이오텔레메터리 라고 한다)은 해양생물에 핑거를 부착하여, 핑거가 발사하는 음을 표적으로 해양생물의 행동생태를 파악하는 중요한 수단이다. 바이오텔레메터리의 최대 장점은 대상생물의 순간적인 행동생태와 서식환경을 동시에 상세하게 조사할 수 있다는 것으로, 이것은 다른 방법으로는 실현하기가 어렵다. (중략)

The Bayesian algorithm model is a model algorithm that calculates probabilities based on input data and is mainly used for complex disasters, water quality management, the ecological structure between living things or living-non-living factors. In this study, we analyzed the main factors affected Korean Estuary Trophic Diatom Index (KETDI) change based on the Bayesian network analysis using the diatom community and physicochemical factors in the domestic estuarine aquatic ecosystem. For Bayesian analysis, estuarine diatom habitat data and estuarine aquatic diatom health (2008~2019) data were used. Data were classified into habitat, physical, chemical, and biological factors. Each data was input to the Bayesian network model (GeNIE model) and performed estuary aquatic network analysis along with the nationwide and each coast. From 2008 to 2019, a total of 625 taxa of diatoms were identified, consisting of 2 orders, 5 suborders, 18 families, 141 genera, 595 species, 29 varieties, and 1 species. Nitzschia inconspicua had the highest cumulative cell density, followed by Nitzschia palea, Pseudostaurosira elliptica and Achnanthidium minutissimum. As a result of analyzing the ecological network of diatom health assessment in the estuary ecosystem using the Bayesian network model, the biological factor was the most sensitive factor influencing the health assessment score was. In contrast, the habitat and physicochemical factors had relatively low sensitivity. The most sensitive taxa of diatoms to the assessment of estuarine aquatic health were Nitzschia inconspicua, N. fonticola, Achnanthes convergens, and Pseudostaurosira elliptica. In addition, the ratio of industrial area and cattle shed near the habitat was sensitively linked to the health assessment. The major taxa sensitive to diatom health evaluation differed according to coast. Bayesian network analysis was useful to identify major variables including diatom taxa affecting aquatic health even in complex ecological structures such as estuary ecosystems. In addition, it is possible to identify the restoration target accurately when restoring the consequently damaged estuary aquatic ecosystem.

We evaluated geosmin and MIB biodegradation and adsorption mechanism of biological activated carbon (BAC) and anthracite biofilter. In steady state of BAC process, the geosmin and MIB were completely removed at the 30 min empty bed contact time (EBCT) even though low water temperature ($9^{\circ}C$) in which the activity of attached bacteria decreased. When the water temperature was $26^{\circ}C$, the microbial biomass and activity were higher at the upper layer of the biofilm than at $9^{\circ}C$, and the microbial biomass and activity decreased as the depth was deeper. This is because when the water temperature is high, the biodegradable organic matter (BOM) removal rate in the upper layer is high and the BOM amount that can't be supplied to the lower layer. The Removal rate of geosmin and MIB by BAC process did not show a significant difference compare to activity-inhibited BAC by treated with azide and the biofilter also removed the geosmin and MIB by biological action. It means geosmin and MIB could be removed by competitive relationship between adsorption and biodegradation.

To understand the attachment of micro algae and their subsequent growths on artificial surfaces immersed in seawater, the relationship between attachment of diatoms on the immersed artificial substrates and species pool in the surrounding water was investigated. We used acryl slides for the study of diatom attachment and examined the surrounding water samples collected in Incheon Harbour from July 1995 to February 1997. Variations of species composition and abundances by exposure time in seawater were investigated during the early phase of biofilm formation on various substrates, e.g. glass, acryl, titanium, copper and antifouling paint-treated slides. Immigration rates of diatoms to acryl slides during spring and winter were significantly correlated with the abundance of benthic diatoms in surrounding water ($r^2$=0.78, p<0.01, n=42), suggesting that immigration rates were affected by variations of benthic diatom abundances in surrounding water. Immigration coefficient of monoraphid diatoms was 5 times higher than that of biraphid diatoms, but relative abundance of monoraphid diatoms was 3 times lower than that of biraphid diatoms on acryl slides in spring. In winter, immigration coefficient and relative abundance of centric diatoms were higher compared to other raphe forms. These results suggest that the attachment of diatoms seems to be caused by the abundance and immigration coefficients of benthic diatoms in surrounding water. Pennate diatoms predominantly attached to all artificial surfaces throughout all experimental periods. Interestingly, centric diatoms predominantly attached to all artificial surfaces in winter. Hantzschia virgata, Licmophora abbreviata and Melosira nummuloides appeared dominantly on antifouling paint-treated slides, probably being tolerant of the antifouling paint. During incubations, the abundance of attached diatoms increased exponentially on glass, titanium and acryl slides with exposure time. The maximum abundance was highest on glass slide, followed by acryl, titanium, copper and antifouling paint-treated slides. The growth rates of attached diatom community on all artificial surfaces were higher at temperature of $24-25^{\circ}C$ than that of $2-3^{\circ}C$. The growth rate of attached diatoms on glass slide was generally higher compared to other slides during the study period. Dominant morphotypes of observed species with exposure time in seawater were prostrate form Amphora coffeaeformis, fan shape Synedra tabulata, stalk type Licmophora paradoxa and chain type M. nummuloides. A micro-succession in the attached microalgal community was observed. The composition of dominant species seems to be the result of species-specific response to gradually limited space with development of microalgal film.
