Vertical profiles of dissolved Cu and Ni at the upper 400 m water layer have been determined at two stations in the central East Sea in October 1995. This is the first report on the vertical distribution of trace metals in Korea. Copper concentrations are in the range of 2.1~5.8 nmol/kg and 1.6~2.4 nmol/kg for stations S and N, respectively. The vertical profile of Cu at S is found a scavenging type (i.e., drastic decrease with increasing depth). Concentrations of Ni range from 4.3 to 7.1 nmol/kg and from 3.4 to 5.4 nmol/kg for stations Sand N, respectively. At station S, Ni is best correlated with phosphate, but not at stations N. Such difference between two stations are probably due to their different vertical distribution of water masses. Station S has a strongly stratified water column with 6 distinct water masses, but station N with a well-mixed subsurface water layer extending from 50 to 300 m depth. Extremely low salinity (31.87~31.96 psu) found at the surface water of station S was interpreted as a result of the Yangtze River effluents which were probably fed into the East Sea through the Korea Strait during the late summer. Such seasonal appearance of low salinity in southern part of the East Sea was reported previously. The concentrations of Cu and Ni at two sites are comparable to those reported in the North Pacific. It was found that Ni mostly exist as dissolved phase.

In order to estimate the characteristics of water movements around artificial upwelling structure, current measurements were carried out along lines E-W and S-N on May 4th(neap tide} and May 30th(spring tide), 2006. In the study area, southeastward flow was dominant during the field observations, and the pattern of water movement in the upper layer above 30m depth was different from that in the lower layer below 30m depth Vertical flow(w-component} around the artificial structure area and western area was shown to be upward flow, but downward flow occurred in the southern, northern and eastern parts at the neap tide. At the spring tide, the ebb current along E-W line showed upwelling flow in the eastern part and western area and showed upwelling flow near the artificial structure area and downwelling flow far away that one. At the spring tide, upward flow was dominant along S-N line during the flood current Volume transport by upward flow was higher than that by downward flow. Volume transport by upward flow during ebb of neap tide was greater than during flood current of neap tide, but was reverse at the spring tide.

In order to see the oceanographic conditions, the observations of aquaculture farm of ascidian in Youngdeuk, the east coast of Korea were conducted through 6 times-23 February, 6 April, 8 June, 19 August, 6 October and 20 December-in 2010. Surveys were conducted in 20 stations bimonthly using SBE 19 CTD instrument. The mixed layer depth (MLD) was deep in winter and shallow in summer. The cold water below $5^{\circ}C$ in temperature was occupied below thermocline through all season. The temperature was high in the southeastern area. The salinity was increased from the coast to the open sea. The halocline was distinct at 20 m depth in August and at 40 m depth in October. The lowest value of salinity was appeared at the depth of 10 m in October. In addition the value of precipitation minus evaporation denoted negative in October. These low saline water seemed to inflow to the coast from the open sea. Therefore the low saline water moved to the east coast of Korea. The EKWC may play an important role to convey the low saline water. It may affect the aquaculture farm along the coast as the mass mortality of ascidian. It needs to clarify the role and pathway of EKWC to transfer the low saline water along the east coast of Korea.

The complexations and selectivities of the 10 species of mono- and dimethylsubstituted anilinium ions with 18-crown-6 in methanol are examined at dropping mercury electrode. The stability constants of these complexes varies drastically due to the steric hindrance by the positions and numbers of methyl groups. And the analyses of the isomeric mixtures of methylanilinium, which are impossible to detect due to the overlapped peaks in normal conditions, were also accomplished by the additions of 18-crown-6 as the supporting complexing agent using the selective complexations by the steric hindrance effects. As results in case of the difference of stability, ${\Delta}log\;K$ were about 0.7~1.3, it was possible to confirm the existence of two species qualitatively. Otherwise when ${\Delta}log\;K$ were large than 1.6, the quantitative determinations of each species could be accomplished sucessfully. From these results it is deduced that the selective recongnition of the positions and numbers of methyl groups as the steric hindrance in anililniums by 18-crown-6 cause the large variation of the magnitudes of negative shift of reduction waves for guest ions in mixtures.

In case that we independently obtain orbital informations about the low earth satellites of foreign countries using radar systems, we develop the orbit determination algorithm for this purpose using a SGP4 model with an analytical orbit model and the extended Kalman filter with a real-time processing method. When the state vector is Keplerian orbital elements, singularity problems happen to compute partial derivative with respect to inclination and eccentricity orbit elements. To cope with this problem, we set state vector osculating to mean equinox and true equator cartesian elements with coordinate transformation. The state transition matrix and the covariance matrix are numerically computed using a SGP4 model. Observational measurements are the type of azimuth, elevation and range, filter process to each measurement in a lump. After analyzing performance of the developed orbit determination algorithm using TOPEX/POSEIDON POE(precision 0.bit Ephemeris), its position error has about 1 km. To be similar to performance of NORAD system that has up to 3km position accuracy during 7 days need to radar system performance that have accuracy within 0.1 degree for azimuth and elevation and 50m for range.

To investigate impacts of waste disposal on the marine environment for 9 years since dumping activity commenced in the Yellow Sea, chemical analysis of seawater has been done in and around the ocean dumping site. Results show that biogeochemical changes have occurred locally in the dumping area compared with the reference area, resulting in low dissolved oxygen saturation, low pH, and high accumulation of nutrients in the bottom layer. According to cluster analysis, chemical environment of the study area can be largely divided into surface layer and bottom layer, and again the bottom layer can be divided into that of dumping area where nutrients are accumulated and that of reference area. Low pH, low dissolved oxygen, high COD and accumulation of nutrients mainly characterize the dumping area. Average concentration of total inorganic nitrogen in the bottom layer below the thermocline has increased from $3.7{\mu}M$ to $9.5{\mu}M$, 250% accumulation in the dumping area since 1988. Therefore, the present results clearly show that the dumping site of Yellow Sea has received excessive sewage input beyond the environmental assimilatory capacity during the last decade. It may result in serious aggravation of seawater quality and basic ecosystem, and devastation of overall fishing grounds of Yellow Sea in the near future.

Anchovy scoop nets, a kind of lift net have been used in the coastal area of Cheju and South sea of Korea. An incandescent lamp(AC 100V, 1kW) is being used as a fishing lamp for gathering anchovy. Fishing lamp was installed at 1m ahead of the prow and 1.5m higher than the water surface. The fishing lamp let fish school rise to the water surface and attract to bag net. Accordingly, a successful anchovy catching depends on controling of fishing lamp. On the study, the distribution of spectral irradiance illumination of incandescent lamp(1kw) and the irradiance efficiency of reflection plate were analyzed and discussed to investigate the ability of fishing lamp which can attract anchovy school effectively. The results obtained are summarized as follows : 1. Around 180% of irradiance efficiency of incandescent lamp was increased by using the reflection plate. The light of lamp was radiated into water with circular shape. 2. The irradiance illumination of incandescent lamp in air was a maximum in wave length of 994nm but it was 690nm at 0.5m and 1.0m of water depth. 3. The relationship between water depth(x) and water illumination(y) of vertical light is represented as follows : y=146.03e supper(-0.37x) 4. The light of incandescent lamp(1kW) pass through much better into vertical direction than horizontal but it was estimated that the light was not able to reach depth of 20m.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the education effect of eating habit unit in 'technology home economics' upon nutrition knowledge eating befavour of students. The eating habit unit in 'technology home economics' was taught with respect to 509 middle school 1st grade students, and preference acknowledgement were examined. Education effect was also examined by analyzing the changes in nutrition knowledge and eating befavour due to the education. Study results revealed that the level of acknowledgement for eating habit unit was positive while majority of the students thought that education contents were emphasized on the theory mainly because of insufficient class hours. Therefore, in order to let students know them better and make the best use of them, it is required to increase the class hours and research opportunity for practice class related with daily life. Through the middle school 'technology home economics' eating habit unit education, positive effect in part of eating habit area was observed and nutrition knowledge was enhanced after the education in both male and female students group. Judging from the results, less enhancement was observed in eating habit compared to the nutrition knowledge increase. Therefore, it can be concluded that continuous and a long range nutrition education is needed to transform the acquired nutrition knowledge into eating habit.

China Coastal Water(CCW) appeared in the neighbouring seas of Cheju Island has been analyzed and the results are as follows: The water with salinity below $32.20\%0$ in the neighbouring seas of Cheju Island in summer is thought CCW. During the period from April 1985 to August 1986, salinity of more than $34.00\%0$ was appeared in the Cheju Strait during January to mid May, but it decreased gradually from late May. CCW with salinity below $32.20\%0$ appeared in the Cheju Strait in early July and disappeared in October. The mean thickness of CCW in the Cheju Strait was about 25m and CCW had an influence of up to about 50m depth. And stratification structure of the Cheju Strait in summer was halocline between the surface and 50m depth and homogeneous salinity layer below 50m depth. It seems that although CCW appears in the wide area of neighbouring seas surface of Cheju Island in summer, the core of this CCW which has the lowest salinity flows into the Cheju Strait from the western seas of Cheju Island. This CCW flows out the east through the central part of the Cheju Strait and then seems to be transported further in the form of eddy.
