In order to understand the characteristics of the distribution and the nutrients of the Yellow Sea Bottom Cold Water during summer to fall, temperature, salinity and nutrients have been investigated in the fifteen stations in the Yellow Sea. In september, the Changjiang diluted water with more than $20^{\circ}C$ distributed in the surface and the Yellow Sea Bottom Cold Water distributed in the layer below 30m depth with less than $10^{\circ}C$. Specially, water mass with less than $5^{\circ}C$ in the layer below 50m depth expanded southward down to the north latitude of $35^{\circ}$ with expanding more to the coasts of China than to the coasts of Korea. The salinity of the cold water mass with $8^{\circ}C$ in the deep layer of more than 50m depth was relatively high as 33.5 psu and expanded northward forming fronts of temperature and salinity. The concentration of total inorganic nitrogen was two times higher in the cold water mass than in the surface water, which means that resolution and consumption were low due to cold temperature in the bottom layer. In conclusion, the cold water expanded southward down to the north latitude of $35^{\circ}$ by September and had high concentration of nutrients.

Edwardsiellosis has become a serious diseases problem in cultured eels for many years. This study was performed to investigate possibility of vaccination against edwardsiellosis caused by Edwardsiella tarda. We conducted a immersion and/or oral vaccination using formalin-killed E. tarda in eel Anguilla japonica. Three groups of fish ($26.8{\pm}1.2g$, $7.1{\pm}0.7g$ and $2.2{\pm}0.4g$) were used in this study. The protection (relative percentage survival, RPS) and serum antibody response (agglutination titer) were evaluated in the vaccinated fish. No correlation between agglutination titer and survival rate was observed in vaccinated fish. However, there was a satisfactory protective (RPS>50%) in vaccinated fish. Immersion (10 mg/mL, 1 hr) and immersion (10 mg/mL, 1 hr) plus oral (10 mg/g, 10 days) of $26.8{\pm}1.2g$, immersion (10 mg/mL, 1 hr) plus oral (10 mg/g, 10 days) of $7.1{\pm}0.7g$ showed RPS of 62.6%, 52.2% and 56.8%, respectively.

Benthic marine algal community of a sea bank at Joomoonjin, in the eastern coast of Korea, was investigated monthly in view of floristic composition and seasonal periodicity during from August, 1989 to July 1990. Total number of benthic alga identified were 70 taxa, which composed of 7 species of Chlorophyta, 21 species of Phaeophyta and 42 species of Rhodophyta. The dominant species were Sargassum horneri, Underia pinnatifida, Laminaria japonica and Pachymeniopsis sp.. Vegetation, from the point of phygiognomy, was a mosaic type by these dominant species. The flora was compared with similarity index using S${\phi}$rensen coefficient and grouped by a cluster analysis. As a result, the algal community of this area could be divided into two clusters at similarity level 45% : Flora of water temperature-ascending period(January-July) and flora of water temperature-descending period(August-December). And also, the former flora was subdivided into two clusters at point of the $14^{\circ}C$ sea water temperature : winter flora(January-April) and spring-summer flora(May-July). The flora of this area was characterized as a mixed flora of cold and temperature zone by Cheney's index.

This study was conducted to select the media for the formalin killed vaccine (FKC) production of Vibrio harveyi and its application for olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. For this, we have investigated the immune effects of Vibrio harveyi FKC vaccines grown in 3 different media i.e. Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB), TSB containing 2-2'-dipyridyl (TSB-D), Brain Heart Infusion Broth (BHIB) on the production of agglutinating antibody and protection against Vibrio harveyi in olive flounder. Additionally, a dual vaccine was prepared by combining Streptococcus parauberis vaccine to V. harveyi vaccine and its efficacy was also analyzed with the determination of optimal administration dosage. Consequently, olive flounder immunized with FKC grown in TSB-D showed the same protection with the vaccine grown in BHIB and the optimal dose of the vaccine was 10mg/kg of body weight. Indeed the dual vaccine showed higher agglutination titer and protection than control fish. The optimal dose for dual vaccine was 10mg/kg body weight for each of two vaccines.

The objective of the present study was to improve the biomass productivity of newly isolated freshwater green microalga Parachlorella sp. This was accomplished by culture conditions optimization, including CO₂ concentration, superficial gas velocity, and light intensity, in 0.5 L bubble column photobioreactors. The supplied CO₂ concentration and gas velocity varied from 0.032% (air) to 10% and 0.02 m/s - 0.11 m/s, respectively, to evaluate their effects on growth kinetics. Next, to maximize the production rate of Parachlorella sp., a lumostatic operation based on a specific light uptake rate (q_e) was applied. From these results, the optimal CO₂ concentration in the supplied gas and the gas velocity were determined to be 5% and 0.064 m/s, respectively. For the lumostatic operation at 10.2 µmol/g/s, biomass productivity and photon yield showed significant increases of 83% and 66%, respectively, relative to cultures under constant light intensity. These results indicate that the biomass productivity of Parachlorella sp. can be improved by optimizing gas properties and light control as cell concentrations vary over time.

Climate change has been accelerating in coastal waters recently; therefore, the importance of coastal environmental monitoring is also increasing. Chlorophyll-a concentration, an important marine variable, in the surface layer of the global ocean has been retrieved for decades through various ocean color satellites and utilized in various research fields. However, the commonly used chlorophyll-a concentration algorithm is only suitable for application in clear water and cannot be applied to turbid waters because significant errors are caused by differences in their distinct components and optical properties. In addition, designing a standard algorithm for coastal waters is difficult because of differences in various optical characteristics depending on the coastal area. To overcome this problem, various algorithms have been developed and used considering the components and the variations in the optical properties of coastal waters with high turbidity. Chlorophyll-a concentration retrieval algorithms can be categorized into empirical algorithms, semi-analytic algorithms, and machine learning algorithms. These algorithms mainly use the blue-green band ratio based on the reflective spectrum of sea water as the basic form. In constrast, algorithms developed for turbid water utilizes the green-red band ratio, the red-near-infrared band ratio, and the inherent optical properties to compensate for the effect of dissolved organisms and suspended sediments in coastal area. Reliable retrieval of satellite chlorophyll-a concentration from turbid waters is essential for monitoring the coastal environment and understanding changes in the marine ecosystem. Therefore, this study summarizes the pre-existing algorithms that have been utilized for monitoring turbid Case 2 water and presents the problems associated with the mornitoring and study of seas around the Korean Peninsula. We also summarize the prospective for future ocean color satellites, which can yield more accurate and diverse results regarding the ecological environment with the development of multi-spectral and hyperspectral sensors.
