In order to evaluate the role of macrophytes as refuge of zooplankton on physical distribution (i.e. summer rainfall), we investigated the environmental factors, macrophytes, and zooplankton in waterside zones (macrophytes zones) and open water zones of 17 wetlands from May and August, 2011. In this study, a total of 51 zooplankton species were identified, and Polyarthra sp. and Diaphanosoma brachyurum were found to be the most dominant species. Waterside area of each wetland were occupied by a total of 10 macrophyte species, species composition and biomass (dry weight) were different in the survey sites. Zooplankton was more abundant in waterside zone than open water zones lacking macrophytes (One-way ANOVA, df=2, F=27.1, P<0.05), in particular, waterside zone of 1, 8, 9, 10, and 11 wetland were supported by high zooplankton density after summer rainfall. This wetlands were developed by various macrophyte species than other wetland, and submerged plant commonly presented. Waterside zones with various macrophyte species provides complexity to the habitat structure, should be utilized as refuge to avoid disturbance such as summer rainfall. The results indicate that macrophytes are the key components to enhance bio-diversity include zooplankton, and the inclusion of diverse plant species in wetland construction or restoration schemes will result in ecologically healthy food webs.

유기주석화합물 (organotin compounds; OTC)은 식물성 플랑크톤에서 동물성 플랑크톤으로 또한 어류의 먹이로 전해지는 먹이사슬에 영향을 줌으로써 생물군의 군집 조성을 파괴시켜 생태계의 균형까지 변화시킬 수 있다 (Lederman and Rhee, 1982). 하지만 OTC가 먹이사슬의 하위에 위치하는 플랑크톤에 어떤 영향을 미치는지에 관해서는 알려진 바가 많지 않다. (중략)

낙동강 하류지점인 물금은 2003년${\sim}$2005년의 대부분이 부영양화의 기준을 넘고 있다. 하구둑 건설이후, 담수화 된 하구둑 상부에서는 부영양화가 가속화되었다. 수질의 악화는 물론 강 생태계의 구조와 기능의 변화까지 초래되었다. 지난 $7{\sim}8$년 간 낙동강 하류 지역은 갈수기 식물성 플랑크톤 군집의 대거 번성으로 인한 부영양화로 연중 심각한 수질 오염문제를 야기하고 있다. 본 연구는 WASP 7.2 모형과 예측된 동물성플랑크톤을 이용하여 낙동강 유역의 하류 지역인 물금의 부영양화를 예측하는 것이다. 2005년의 관측값을 초기조건으로 고정하고 DO, $NO_3$-N, $PO_4$-P, 기상청에서 예보되는 기온을 사용하여 동물성 플랑크톤을 신경망 모형으로 예측한 뒤, 수온 대신 기상청의 기온을 입력하여 $1{\sim}3$일 후의 단기 수질을 예측하였다. 부영양화 예측결과와 2005년의 월별 수질 관측값을 통계량을 이용하여 분석하였다. $1{\sim}3$일 후의 예측결과 수질항목 중 부영양화의 기준이 되는 클로로필-a, 총 질소, 총 인의 경우는 예측기간 모두 관측값에 적합하게 모의되었다. WASP 7.2 모형의 수질항목 관측자료를 초기값으로 입력하고, 예측된 동물성 플랑크톤의 개체수와 기상청에서 예보되는 기온을 사용한 수질모의는 낙동강의 단기 수질예측에 유의한 의미가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

표층수를 주요 취수원으로 활용하는 우리나라의 경우 저수지 내 남조류 대발생시 주로 인공순환에 의한 제어방안을 적용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 간헐식 폭기장치를 사용중에 있는 H호를 대상으로 식물플랑크톤 제어 효과를 평가하고, 이에 따른 식물플랑크톤의 수직적 분포와 선택 취수와의 연관성을 규명하여 정수장 유입 원수의 수질을 향상하고자 하였다. 2005년 H호의 남조류 농도는 최대 $1.2mg/m^3 $ 수준으로 낮은 분포로 조사되었다. 남조강에 대한 폭기 효과는 6월에는 워낙 그 농도가 낮아 효과 분석 자체가 무의미 하였으나, 10월에는 비영향지점 보다 영향지점의 최대 농도가 약 28% 저감되는 효과를 확인하였다. 조사 기간 중 가장 높은 농도를 보인 조류강은 Cryptophyta이었으며 6월9일에 약 $5mg/m^3$ 농도로 측정되었다. 10월6일에는 Diatom, Bluegreen, Green algae, Cryptophyta가 비슷한 농도 분포로 혼재된 양상을 보였다. 다른 조류강의 경우 조사 기간 중 $3mg/m^3$ 이하의 농도로 측정되었다. 취수탑을 중심으로 설치하여 운영하는 간헐식 폭기장치 1기의 유효 영향 범위를 조사하기 위하여 폭기 영향권에서 식물플랑크톤 분포를 submersible fluorescence probe로 현장에서 실시간으로 조사한 결과 식물플랑크톤 밀도는 감소하고 수직적인 분포층은 깊어지는 현상을 보였다. 이러한 효과를 보이는 거리는 폭기 장치로부터 약 50m로 나타났으며 pH, DO, 수온항목의 결과에서도 같은 현상을 보였다. 이 결과에 따르면 현재 설치된 총 7기의 폭기 장치의 유효영향 범위는 최대 $0.07km^2$ 면적에 그 효과를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 판단되어, 남조 수화현상이 심화될 경우 인공순환에 의한 저감효과가 크지는 않을 것으로 예측된다. 조사 기간중 H호의 현존 식물플랑크톤량의 $60%{\sim}87%$가 수심 10m 이내에 분포하였고, 녹조강과 남조강이 우점하는 하절기에는 5m 이내에 주로 분포하였다. 취수탑 지점의 수심이 연중 $25{\sim}35m$를 유지하는 H호의 경우 간헐식 폭기장치를 가동하는 기간은 물론 그 외 기간에도 취수구의 심도를 표층 10m 이하로 유지 할 경우 전체 조류 유입량을 60% 이상 저감할 수 있을 것으로 조사되었다.

The zooplankton community dynamics and grazing experiments was evaluated along a 40 km section of the lower Seomjin river system. Zooplankton was sampled twice a month from January 2005 to June 2006 at three sites (River mouth; RKO, Seomjin bridge: RK12 and Gurae bridge: RK36) in the main river channel. During the study period, the values of most limnological parameters in the three sites were fairly similar, except for conductivity. Annual variation of conductivity in River mouth and Seomjin bridge was more dramatic than which of the other site. There were statistically significant spatial and seasonal differences in zooplankton abundance (ANOVA, P<0.01). Total abundance of major zooplankton groups at both stations was much higher than in Gurae bridge. Among the macrozooplankton, cladocerans abundance was negligible in study sites during study periods. Community filtering rates (CFRs) for phytoplankton and bacteria varied from 0 to 50 mL $L^{-1}\;D^{-1}$ and from 0 to 45 mL $L^{-1}\;D^{-1}$, respectively. The spatial variation of CFRs for phytoplankton was significant (ANOVA, P<0.05). The CFRs of copepods for phytoplankton and bacteria was much higher than that of cladocerans at study sites. Total zooplankton filtering rates on bacteria were slightly lower than filtering rates on phytoplankton. The CFRs of microzooplankton (MICZ) for bacteria were much higher than for macrozooplankton (MACZ) at all sites. Considering the total zooplankton community, MICZ generally were more important than MACZ as grazers of bacteria and phytoplankton in freshwater zone, while MACZ were more important than MICZ as grazers of phytoplankton in brackish zone.

In order to investigate the relation between the phytoplankton and the catch fluctuation of set net fishing grounds located in the coastal waters of Yeosu, phytoplankton observations on the fishing ground were carried out by the training ship of Yeosu, Fisheries University from April to November in 1990, and the data obtained were compared with the catch data from the joint market of yeosu fisheries cooperative society in 1990. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1) The phytoplanktons were more appeared in summer than in spring or autumn and their quantity was much in the shore of Dolsan-do, and little in the offshore waters distributed in the shores of Sori-do and Sejon-do, Thus, the quantity of the planktons could be used for estimating the distribution of watermass. 2) The fishes caught by the set net were arranged in the order of catch amounts as follows: Spanish mackerel > Hair tail > Common mackerel > Sardine > Anchovy > Horse mackerel > Yellow tail. The catches of anchovy and Sardine were high in April to May and Hair tail. Horse mackerel and Common mackerel were caught from June to October. But Spanish mackerel were caught during the whole period of fishing. 3) The catches by set nets showed a correlation with the quantity of phytoplanktons. The planktons appeared most in the inner waters. influenced largely by the inflow of land waters in summer. and the catches were high in summer when the offshore water was distributed least. Therefore, the most important factor influencing the catches were regarded to be the productivity of food organism in inner water into which abundant nutrients were supplied by the inflow of land waters. That is, the fluctuation of catches by set nets seemed to be influenced mainly by the productivity of food organism.

To characterize the community structure and spatial distribution of phytoplankton, observations on seawater temperature, salinity, nutrients, primary productivity and abundance and species composition of phytoplankton were made in the polar front region and its neighborhood off the east coast of Korea in summer 1990. Among the 96 taxa identified, Rhizosolenia setigera and Thalassionema nitzschioides were the most dominant species. The assemblage at the surface and 50 m depth was quite different in the northern inshore part of the study area but similar in the southern and offshore part. Principal component analysis by the species abundance showed that the phytoplankton consisted of the communities representing the surface of the northern inshore part with the neritic-warm dinoflagellates, the Northern Korean Cold Water with the cold water diatoms and the southern and offshore part, which seems to represent the Eastern Korean Warm Water, with the warm water diatoms. At the frontal region, diatoms were mixed with warm and cold water species. Primary productivity and phytoplankton standing crops were higher at the front than the neighboring waters. Nutrients were markedly high at the Northern Korean Cold Water. Horizontal advection of the Northern Korean Cold Water accompanied by nutrient supply seems to contribute to the high phytoplankton biomass at the front.

In this study, we compared the spatio-temporal differences of phytoplankton communities among 4 lakes in the Boseong River basin. Field research was conducted quarterly from 2014 to 2017 for this study. A total of 345 species of phytoplankton were identified including 107 Bacillariophyceae, 175 Chlorophyceae, 27 Cyanophyceae and 36 other phytoplankton taxa. Lake Boseong showed higher species numbers and density of phytoplankton than other lakes (Dunn's test, P<0.01). Bacillariophyceae such as Asterionella formosa, Aulacoseira granulata, Fragilaria crotonensis was dominated in most research periods, whereas Scenedesmus ecornis and Coelastrum cambricum belonging to Chlorophyceae were dominant species on August. The self-organizing map (SOM) classified 3 clusters with 10 × 7 grid and showed spatio-temporal variation of phytoplankton communities based on significant difference among each clusters. Total 31 species of phytoplankton were chosen as a indicator species using indicator species analysis(ISA) and reflected seasonal phytoplankton succession and diversity and density of phytoplankton according to nutrient concentration. Water temperature, Secchi depth, conductivity and DO were identified as important factors affecting the differences of phytoplankton communities in the studied lakes in Boseong River basin using non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS).

This study described the spatial distributions of marine environmental factors such as water temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a concentration and turbidity, and characteristics of phytoplankton community such as species composition, standing crops and dominant species at 19 fishing ports around Jeju Island during the early summer of 2016. I analyzed bio-oceanographical characteristics using principal component analysis (PCA) of the environmental factors and biological parameters. Water temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a and turbidity ranged from 17.6 to $20.7^{\circ}C$, from 26.19 to 32.33 psu, from 0.76 to $7.13{\mu}g\;L^{-1}$, and from 0.51 to 14.49 FTU, respectively. A total of 51 species of phytoplankton belonging to 35 genera were identified. In particular, diatoms and dinoflagellates accounted for more than 56.8% and 27.4% of all the species, respectively. Moreover, the number of phytoplankton species was controlled by salinity. Phytoplankton cell density ranged from $2.9cells\;mL^{-1}$ to $185.9cells\;mL^{-1}$. The dominant species were Navicula spp. Stephanopyxis turris, Eutreptiella gymnastica and Mesodinium rubrum. Environmental factors and the phytoplankton community varied greatly between sampling sites. According to PCA, the biological oceanographic characteristics of the around Jeju Island were characterized by meteorological factors such as air temperature, precipitation and discharge of ground water during early summer.
