Amur grayling, Thymallus grubii, is an important economic cold freshwater fish originally found in the Amur basin. Currently, suffering from loss of habitat and shrinking population size, T. grubii is restricted to the mountain river branches of the Amur basin. In order to assess the genetic diversity, population genetic structure and infer the evolutionary history within the species, we analysised the whole mitochondrial DNA control region (CR) of 95 individuals from 10 rivers in China, as well as 12 individuals from Ingoda/Onon and Bureya River throughout its distribution area. A total of 64 variable sites were observed and 45 haplotypes were identified excluding sites with gaps/missing data. Phylogenetic analysis was able to confidently predict two subclade topologies well supported by maximum-parsimony and Bayesian methods. However, basal branching patterns cannot be unambiguously estimated. Haplotypes from the mitochondrial clades displayed local homogeneity, implying a strong population structure within T. grubii. Analysis of molecular variance detected significant differences among the different geographical rivers, suggesting that T. grubii in each river should be managed and conserved separately.

An investigation of the karyotypes of two species of the genus Brachymystax (B. lenok and B. tumensis) has been done for the Russia Primorye rivers running to the East Sea basin, and others belonging to Amur basin. Based on the analysis of two species chromosome characteristics, combined with original and literary data, four cytotypes have been described. One of these cytotypes (Cytotype I: 2n=90, NF=110-118) was the most common. This common cytotype belongs to B. tumensis from the rivers of the East Sea basin and B. lenok from the rivers of the Amur basin, i.e. extends to the zones of allopatry. In the rivers of the Amur river basin, in the zone of the sympatric habitat of two species, each taxon has karyotypes with different chromosome numbers, B. tumensis (2n=92) and B. lenok (2n=90). Because of the ability to determine a number of the chromosome arms for these two species, additional cytotype have been identified for B. tumensis: Cytotype II with 2n=92, NF=110-124 in the rivers basins of the Yellow sea and Amur river and for B. lenok three cytotypes: Cytotype I: 2n=90, NF=110 in the Amur river basin; Cytotype III with 2n=90, NF=106-126 in the Amur river basin and Cytotypes IV with 2n=92, NF=102 in the Baikal lake.

An 8-wk experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of replacing fish meal (FM) with soy protein isolate (SPI) on the growth, digestive enzyme activity and serum biochemical parameters of juvenile Amur sturgeon (Acipenser schrenckii). SPI was used to replace 0, 25, 50, 62.5, 75, 87.5, 100% of dietary FM and 100% replacement supplemented crystalline amino acid. Healthy sturgeon with an average initial weight of $26.38{\pm}0.24$ g were randomly assigned to 24 aquaria (8 treatments with triplicates each) at an initial stocking density of 11 fish per aquarium and cultured for 8 wks. The results showed that 75.00% or more substitution resulted in a poor weight gain rate, feed conversion ratio and survival rate compared to that of fish fed the control diet (p<0.05), whereas no significant differences were observed between diets of 25.00% to 62.50% substitution. Protease, lipase and amylase activity in foregut, mid-gut and hindgut were significantly (p<0.05) decreased by diets where SPI replacement levels were 62.50% or more. Levels of serum total protein (TP) and globulin decreased significantly from 21.03, 10.34 to 14.05, 5.63 g/L with the increasing dietary SPI (p<0.05), but alkaline phosphatase activity significantly increased (p<0.05). In addition, supplemental crystalline amino acid in the FM absence diet did not improve growth performance, intestine digestive enzyme activities and serum biochemical parameters. In conclusion, the results from this study showed adverse effects of inclusion of SPI in diets on growth performance, feed utilization and serum biochemical parameters in juvenile Amur sturgeon. Based on WGR and replacement ratio presented in this report, a 57.64% replacement level was recommended.

The results of geoarchaeological studies of the prehistoric cultural complexes on the Russian Far East (Primorye, or Maritime Province; the Amur River basin; and Sakhalin Island) are presented. Upper Palaeolithic sites are dated to ca. 40,000-10,500 B.P. They existed during the mild climate of the Chernoruchie interstadial (ca. 40,000-21,000 B.P.); during harsh climate at the Last Glacial Maximum, ca. 20,000-18,000 B.P., in several places on the Russian Far East (Primorye, Amur River basin, and Sakhalin); and during climatic amelioration in the Late Glacial time, ca. 16,000-10,500 B.P. The earliest Neolithic sites, represented by Osipovka and Gromatukha cultures, existed at ca. 13,000-10,000 B.P. in the environment of coniferous forests with admixture of broadleaved taxa. Since ca. 8000 B.P., Neolithic cultures appeared in all of the Russian Far East. They existed until ca. 3000 B.P., first during the Holocene Climatic Optimum, ca. 8000-5000 B.P., in the environment of coniferous-broadleaved forests, and later, at ca. 5000-3000 B.P., in the environment of birch-oak and coniferous forests.

It has been since 15 century when Ainu realized themselves as a race. Their folk culture had been formed with the effect of East-northern Asia and cultural exchange with Japanese through the northern trade during 17 -18 centuries. It can be ascertained from the typical festival food and clothing. clothing style and the ornaments of Ainu people. The basics of Ainu people are composed of an unfolding clothes which men and women had wort in one-piece style even though they had lived in the northernmost cold climate. Atousi is their typical clothing which had been made of the grass fiber. Ainu people had imported the old cotton clothes from the trading with the mainland roughly in the late E-do (late 18 century). Ainu's clothing is divided broadly into Aiusi and Moreu pattern. Ainu people had decorated their back, shoulder, collar, burial clothes, waist and hem by changing and mixing them. These are the expression of their desire to prevent themselves from the wicked plot or the devil. There is no similar Ainu patterns or skill in Kimono, while it is known to be rather related to the area of Amur River, Sakhalin, and the distant Mongolia. Therefore, the traditional pattern of Ainu should be the continental conception which had been skilfully shaped through the trading with the north adding the series of Ainu People.

(1) 1966年 5月 25日부터 1967年 8月 30日에 이르는 사이에 江原道高城郡懸內面松峴里에서 三陟郡近德面草堂窟에 이르는 嶺東地方에서 10箇 河川을 調査하여 40種의 淡水魚를 採集, 또는 確認하였다. 이 중, 32種은 이 地城에서는 未記錄種이다. (2) 이들 40種 중, 元山 以北에서 産出되지 않은 것이 14種이고, 漢江에서 棲息하지 않은 것이 17種이었고 蔚珍以南의 상도 慶尙道 東部에서 發見되지 않은 것이 11種 이다. (3) 嶺東地域에서 産出되지 않은 淡水魚로서 元山 以北에 棲息하는 것이 33種, 蔚珍 以南에서 發見되는 것이 16種, 漢江에서 採集되는 것이 60種이다. (4) 本區域은 淡水魚 分布上 Amur 亞區와 中國亞區의 中間型을 나타내고 있으며, 南北과 東西間의 差異는 各各 生態的 條件과 地域的 要因의 差異에 緣由하는 것으로 思料된다. (5) 本區域에서 産出되는 淡水魚 중, 分布上 特히 注目되는 것은 Ganthopogon strigatus, Cobitis rotundicaudata, Coreoperca kawamebari, Leucopsarion petersi 等이며, Gobiogobio, Pseudorasbora parva, Zacco paltypus, Zacco temmincki 等이 採集되지 못한 것은 意外이였다.

두만강 하류의 숲은 북한, 중국, 러시아를 연결하는 중요한 산림생태계로서, 국제적인 멸종위기종인 호랑이(Panthera tigris)와 표범(Panthera pardus)을 포함한 다양한 야생동물들에게 서식환경과 이동경로를 제공하여 준다. 본 연구는 두만강 하류, 특히 중국과 북한을 연결하는 잠재적인 생태통로로서 한반도의 생물다양성 보전과 복원에 중요한 역할을 할 수 있는 밀강 지역에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 2019년 5월부터 2021년 5월까지 이 지역에 설치한 48대의 무인센서카메라를 통해 출현하는 포유류 종을 확인하고 그들의 상대개체수와 점유율 및 분포 현황을 파악하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 그 결과 총 18종의 포유류가 밀강 지역에 서식하고 있으며, 그 중에는 호랑이와 표범 등 대형 육식동물도 포함되고 있음을 확인하였다. 이 지역의 주요 포유류인 유제류 4종에 대한 점유율과 탐지율, 분포를 추정한 결과, 특히 노루(Capreolus pygargus)와 멧돼지(Sus scrofa)가 높은 점유율을 보였다. 노루는 모든 지역에 분포하며 예측 점유율은 0.97로 높게 나타났으나, 고도, 도시 주거용지, 패치 밀도 등의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 멧돼지는 0.73의 예측 점유율을 보이며 전 지역에 분포했으며, 습지 비율, 방목 강도, 사면에 대한 공간이질성 등의 인자가 점유율과 탐지율에 영향을 주었다. 꽃사슴(Cervus nippon)의 예측 점유율은 0.48로서 특정 지역에 국한되어 분포하였으며, 경사도와 서식지 파편화 다양성이 탐지율에, 방목 강도와 개방된 숲의 비율이 점유율에 각각 영향을 주었다. 고라니(Hydropotes inermis)는 아주 낮은 점유율(0.06)을 보이며 두만강 유역을 따라 분포했으며, 고도가 낮은 곳의 점유율이 높고 사면의 공간이질성이 높은 곳에서 탐지율이 높았다. 본 연구는 밀강 지역이 두만강 하류의 다양한 포유류 개체군을 유지하는 서식지인 동시에, 동물의 이동성과 서식지의 연결성을 유지하는 잠재적 생태통로로서 중요한 역할을 할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 동시에 본 연구에서 개발된 점유율 예측 모형은 향후 인간의 교란에 노출된 두만강 유역의 포유류 분포를 예측하고 국경지대의 생태통로를 파악하고 보호하는 데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study examined the multi-scale variabilities of sea surface temperature (SST) and salinity in the Japan/East Sea (JES) based on statistical analyses of observational data, with a focus on the northwestern part of the sea. The regionality of JES SST variability was estimated for different frequency ranges on semimonthly (11-17 days), monthly to seasonal (30-90 days), quasi-semiannual (157-220 days), and quasi-biennial (1.5-3 years) time scales using cluster analyses of daily gridded SST data for 1996 to 2007 from the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA). Several significant peaks and regional cores were found in each frequency range of the SST anomaly (SSTA) oscillations. Quasi-semiannual SSTA oscillations with high amplitude were found in the south-southwestern part of the Japan Basin ($41-43^{\circ}N$) and were amplified in the area adjacent to Peter the Great Bay. Oscillations with periods of 79 and 55 days also prevailed over the southwest Japan Basin between the Yamato Rise and the continental slope. A similar method was applied to classify SST and the annual cycle of surface salinity using Generalized Digital Environmental Model (GDEM) gridded data. The Tatarskii Strait and adjacent area showed the most specific annual cycles and variability in salinity on interannual to interdecadal time scales. The most significant inverse relationship between surface salinity in the Tatarskii Strait and southern JES areas was found on the interdecadal time scale. Linkages of sea water salinity in the Tatarskii Strait with Amur River discharge and wind velocity over Amurskii Liman were also revealed.

한국 및 일본산 버들치속 어류의 유전적 변이, 종의 분류학적 위치 및 계통변화를 구명하기 위하여 전기영동법을 이용, 26개 유전자를 검출 분석하였다. 버들치속 어류의 평균 유전적 변이 정도는 타 어류군에 비하여 낮은 편이었다. 분류상 문제시 되어 오던 한국산 M. lagowskii와 M. oxycephalus 및 일본산 M. steindachneri와 M. jouyi는 각 종 특유의 genetic markers를 갖고 있어 각기 독립된 별종으로 확인되었다. M. lagowskii의 분포지역인 경포호집단은 유전적으로 뚜렷한 차이가 있고 형태적 특징으로 보아 M. percnurus로 추정된다. 각 종의 분화연대를 추정한 결과 이들은 선신세후기에서 홍종세 초기에 걸처 종분화가 되었고, 고 Amur 하 수계를 통하여 이주, 분포한 것으로 추측된다.
