This study collected data of college students' volunteering for maritime and fisheries and found that only few subjects participated in it. They took part in control for release of oil, services for sea village and coastal cleansing. Most were satisfied with their volunteering referring contributing to environment protection, self-fulfillment, social interaction, gaining special experiences and assimilation with nature. The subjects were not satisfied with lack of systematic and effective services, monolithic activities, insufficient publicity, deficient rewards and a shortage of self-capacity. Based upon the research findings, implications for college students' volunteering policies were suggested to promote volunteering for maritime and fisheries.

In the near future, autonomous ships, ships controlled by shore remote control centers, and ships operated by navigators will coexist and operate the sea together. In the advent of this situation, a method is required to evaluate the safety of the maritime traffic environment. Therefore, in this study, a plan to evaluate the safety of navigation through ship control simulation was proposed in a maritime environment, where ships directly controlled by navigators and autonomous ships coexisted, using autonomous operation technology. Own ship was designed to have autonomous operational functions by learning the MMG model based on the six-DOF motion with the PPO algorithm, an in-depth reinforcement learning technique. The target ship constructed maritime traffic modeling data based on the maritime traffic data of the sea area to be evaluated and designed autonomous operational functions to be implemented in a simulation space. A numerical model was established by collecting date on tide, wave, current, and wind from the maritime meteorological database. A maritime meteorology model was created based on this and designed to reproduce maritime meteorology on the simulator. Finally, the safety evaluation proposed a system that enabled the risk of collision through vessel traffic flow simulation in ship control simulation while maintaining the existing evaluation method.

Phytoplankton controls marine ecosystems in terms of nutrients, photosynthetic rate, carbon cycle, etc. and the degree of its influence on the marine environment depends on their physical size. Many studies have been attempted to identify marine phytoplankton size classes using the remote sensing techniques. One of successful approach was the three-component model which estimates the chlorophyll concentrations of three phytoplankton size classes (micro-phytoplankton; >20 ㎛, nano-; 2-20 ㎛ and pico-; <2 ㎛) as a function of total chlorophyll. Here, we examined the applicability of Geostationary Ocean Colour Imager (GOCI) to the mapping of the phytoplankton size class distribution in the East Sea. A fit of the three-component model to a biomarker pigment dataset collected in the study area for some years including a large harmful algal bloom period has been carried out to derive size-fractioned chlorophyll concentration (CHL). The tuned three-component model was applied to the hourly GOCI images to identify the fractions of each phytoplankton size class for the entire CHL. Then, we investigated the distribution of phytoplankton community in terms of the size structure in the East Sea during the harmful Cochlodinium polykrikoides blooms in the summer of 2013.

Since 2000, the national geotechnical information DB has been constructed by Transport and Maritime Affairs (present Ministry of Land) and recently, it provides more than 210 thousands borehole informations through the geotechnical information DB portal systems. The initial project of underground space information computerization was begun in 2007, focusing on collecting the informations after then additional studies had been conducted to verify the precision and accuracy of collected informations in 2013~2014. In accordance with the recent initiation of the 3D integrated underground space mapping project, it is necessary to construct 3D image of the geotechnical information and evaluate the accuracy and precision of the information. Therefore, in this research, the basic information regarding the precision of the geotechnical DB is provided by kriging method and analysis of RMSE for the systematic 3D construction of geotechnical information. In addition, the elevation data errors of boring information are verified by analysis of elevation data such as boring information data and DEM data.

The calcium carbonate saturation state in the Ulleung Basin of East Sea was calculated using bottle data set of pH, dissolved inorganic carbon and total alkalinity obtained from the year 1999, 2014, 2017, and 2018 cruise. In the 2010s calcium carbonate saturation state was significantly lowered at all depth compared to the 1999 reference state. Accordingly calcite saturation horizon and aragonite saturation horizon shoaled to 500 m and 200 m, respectively. A key chemical species for the calcium carbonate saturation state, carbonate ion showed distinctive profile between upper and deep waters: it is moderately high (${\sim}175{\mu}mol\;kg^{-1}$) in upper waters and very low (< ${\sim}50{\mu}mol\;kg^{-1}$) in the deep waters. However the decreasing trend of carbonate ion concentration was pronounced in the upper water than deep waters, suggesting atmospheric $CO_2$ penetration is largely confined to the upper waters in the 2000s.

For safe operation of ships and management of marine fisheries farms, the data set that extracts the boundaries of marine fisheries farms can provide information on obstacles in the vessel's navigation path in advance by examining whether it matches the fishing ground permit area. In addition, it can be used to determine whether fish farms are operating to compensate for damage caused by marine accidents, and the relevant local government can use it to manage fishing grounds. It is also highly utilized as basic data to identify obstacles for safe navigation of ships. In this study, Sentinel-2 satellite image data from the European Space Agency (ESA) was used to extract the boundaries of fish farms. From the video image, the fish farm's status data by cycle was divided into five zones: Busan-Ulsan area, Geoje-Changwon area, Goseong-Tongyeong area, and Namhae-Sacheon area. Through the image highlighting process, the farm boundary data and meta data were processed and extracted.

Recently, policy of the marine advanced countries were switched from the preemption using ocean to post-project development. In this study, we suggest improvement and the pending issues when are deducted to the database of the marine spatial information is constructed over the GIS system for the Korean Marine Spatial Planning (KMSP). More than 250 spatial information in the seas of Korea were processed in order of data collection, GIS transformation, data analysis and processing, data grouping, and space mapping. It's process had some problem occurred to error of coordinate system, digitizing process for lack of the spatial information, performed by overlapping for the original marine spatial information, and so on. Moreover, solution is needed to data processing methods excluding personal information which is necessary when produce the spatial data for analysis of the used marine status and minimized method for different between the spatial information based GIS system and the based real information. Therefore, collection and securing system of lacking marine spatial information is enhanced for marine spatial planning. it is necessary to link and expand marine fisheries survey system. It is needed to the marine spatial planning. The marine spatial planning is required to the evaluation index of marine spatial and detailed marine spatial map. In addition, Marine spatial planning is needed to standard guideline and system of quality management. This standard guideline generate to phase for production, processing, analysis, and utilization. Also, the quality management system improve for the information quality of marine spatial information. Finally, we suggest necessity need for the depths study which is considered as opening extension of the marine spatial information and deduction on application model.

Domestic coastal debris monitoring encounters challenges due to labor-intensive methods and limited survey scope. Consequently, research is utilizing remote sensing techniques to enhance efficiency in data collection. However, standards for domestic remote sensing based monitoring methods remain insufficient. In this study, we conducted a meta-analysis of 19 coastal debris monitoring studies utilizing drones and other remote sensing devices. We analyzed data collection methods, collected data information, monitoring target details, monitoring status, detection targets, and utilization models. Based on our meta-analysis results, we proposed monitoring criteria, recommended items, and performance standards for monitoring coastal debris using drones. Our findings define necessary conditions and standards for establishing operational guidelines for coastal debris monitoring using drones. Furthermore, we anticipate that incorporating foreign case analyses and field application results will enable the development of national-level guidelines for coastal debris monitoring utilizing remote sensing devices.

Marine Incidents based on Heinrich's law are very important in preventing accidents. However, marine Incident data are mainly qualitative and are used to prevent similar accidents through case sharing rather than statistical analysis, which can be confirmed in the marine Incident-related data posted in the Korea Maritime Safety Tribunal. Therefore, this study derived quantitative results by analyzing the causes of marine incidents during berthing using various methods of statistical analysis. To this end, data involving marine incidents from various shipping companies were collected and reclassified for easy analysis. The main keywords were derived via primary analysis using text mining. Only meaningful words were selected via verification by an expert group, and time series and cluster analysis were performed to predict marine incidents that may occur during berthing. Although the role of an expert group was still required during the analysis, it was confirmed that quantitative analysis of marine incidents was feasible, and iused to provide cause and accident prevention information.
