Using micromill, discrete carbonate powders from the otolith of Argyrosomus argentatus were sampled along the growth band, and high-resolution stable isotope profiles were obtained. The ${\delta}^{18}O$ and ${\delta}^{13}C$ values are increasing gradually from the core to the margin. However, such increases do not seem to be attributed to the environmental property changes during the growth, but to the dominant effect of metabolic carbons during the early growth, and then, the isotopic composition seems to be equilibrium to the environmental condition. This paper allows the diverse applicability of high-resolution isotope research to the fish otoliths in the future.

보구치(Argyrosomus argentatus)는 우리 나라의 연안에서 어획되는 상업적으로 중요한 어종이며, 광양만에서는 여름철에 출현하는 자치어 중 중요한 어종이다(Cha and Park,1994). 최근에 보구치에 대하여 분포(Baik et al.,1999)를 비롯하여 성장과 성숙 (Song,1988; Kwon et al.,1999), 산란(Song,1988; Kang et al.,1999), 자원량과 자원관리방안(Zhang et al.,1999a, b)과 같은 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있지만, 초기 생활사에 대한 연구는 아직 이루어지지 않고 있다.

Seasonal samples of demersal fish off Yongkwang were collected by an otter trawl from June 1986 to March 1987, and analyzed in terms of species composition and abundance. Of 33 species indentified, Johnius grypotus, Chaeturichthys stigmatias, Argyrosomus argentatus and Cynoglossus joyneri predominated in abundance, consisting 81.9% in the total number of species and 71.4% in biomass. The number of species and abundance were comparatively high in warmer months, and a resident species Cynoglossus joyneri and migrants such as Johnius grypotus and Argyrosomus argentatus were predominated. In cold months, the number of species and abundance were low, and Chaeturichthys stigmatias and Zoarces gillii were dominated. The relative abundance in major species of the present study shows a similar seasonal trend to that obtained in 1995. The relative abundance of major species occurred in the shallow coastal waters of southwestern Korea was highly correlated to the tidal velocity. J. grypotus and C. stigmatias declined in abundance while C. joyneri increased as the tidal velocity increased. This trend in abundance of the major fishes seems to be related to the form of body. The characteristics being flat of C. joyneri could be the major cause of sustaining in the water of high tidal mixing.

The annual production of silver croaker (Argyrosomus argentatus) in Korean towed fishing gears has been increased in recent five years. In 2017, the annual production of silver croaker in metric ton was increased 99.2% compared to 2013. However, the research for silver croaker has been focused on ecology in Korea. There has not been enough research in terms of fishing gears. Therefore, the research for retention probability for towed gears was conducted on covered codend method from June, 2016 to July, 2018. During the experiments, the total catch of silver croaker was 1,563. The geometry of the experimental trawl gear was controlled by trawl monitoring system; net height was 3.3 m, distance of trawldoors was 59.8 m and distance of wing net was 17.3 m. The selection curve for silver croaker was estimated by a logit model. The analysis was applied with the confidence interval to reduce uncertainty of the estimation. The $l_{50}$ was 13.87 cm and its selection range was 2.71 cm. P-value was estimated at 0.99. The mesh size for silver croaker in towed gears needs to be adjusted by considering its minimum maturity length, stakeholder's interests and fisheries regulations.

To investigate the food organisms and feeding selectivity of the white croaker (Argrosomus argentatus) during the postlarval stage, the gut contents of the postlarvae, captured in Kwangyang Bay in 1995, were observed, The food organisms were composed of copepod egg and nauplius, Codonellopsis sp. and Tintinnopsis spp. The indices of relative importance indicated that the most dominant food item was a copepod nauplius. As white croaker larvae grew, the size of prey items and the selectivity for copepod nauplius increased.

To study the composition and distribution of the ichthyoplankton in Kwangyang Bay, they were sampled at eight stations from February to December 1990, Abundance was the highest in June, and the number of taxa was the highest in August. Engraulis japonicus, Leiognathus nuchalis, Konosirus punctatus and Argyrosomus argentatus were dominant among 6 taxa of pelagic eggs. Engraulis japonicus, Gobiidae, Korwsirus punctatus, Argyrosomus argentatus and Leiognathus nuchalis were dominant among 21 taxa of fish larvae. The number of taxa was smaller than the previous study. Abundance during winter was low due to the reduction of abundance of winter spawning species. Ammodytes personatus and Enendrias fangi.

The taxonomic revision of the family Sciaenidae was made based on the specimens collected from the south-western coasts of the Korea from 1989 to May 1992. The family Sciaenidae from Korea was classified into 12 species belong to 8 genera : Pseudosciaena crocea, Pseudosciaena polyactis, Collichthys lucidus, Collichthys niveatus, Larimichthys rathbunae, Johnius grypotus ; Nibea albiflora, Nibea mitsukurii, Nibea diacanthus, Miichthys miiuy, Argyrosomus argentatus and Atrobucca nibe. Six species, previonsely reported as the family Sciaenidae from Korea, were transferred into different generic name or specific name : Pseudosciaena manchurica into P. polyactis ; Nibea goma into N. diacanthus ; into Miichthys miiuy ; Nibea argentatus into Argyrosomus argentatus ; Nibea nibe into Atrobucca nibe and Johnius belengerii into J. grypotus. The species Collichthys fragilis was identified as the same species of C. lucidus, based on the number of light organs just above abdominal midline, the shape of occipital crest and first spine of anal fin. Keys to genera and species are provided together with description and distributional data.

Prediction of the variation in annual biomass was conducted for the white croaker. Argyrosomus argentatus in Korean waters using leslie Matrix, based upon fishery data for the past 21 years and biological data, We used density-independent and density-dependent Leslie Matrix models. Similar parameters were estimated from two models except that the density-dependent model was influenced by the density effect variable, q(i,t), The eigenvalue of the white croaker population for the $1984\~1995$ period was estimated to be 0.8, indicating a declining pattern of the population. The survival rate of 0-th year class was calculated to be 0.00005. Based on the schedule of the age-specific survival rate and fecundity, the future biomass and catch was predicted for various levels of fishing mortalities (F), If F was set at 0.252/yr ($F_{35x}$) or 0.368/yr ($F_{0.1}$), the biomass and catch increased, and if F was set at 0.922 ($F_{current}$), the biomass and catch decreased, The fishing mortality at equilibrium was estimated to be 0.7/yr. Finally, the management strategy of the white croaker was discussed.

As a study for offshore wind farm, we investigated the fish fauna of the Wi-do, Younggwang-gun, Chollabuk-do, Korea. From the four times collection of fish species from October 2013 to June 2014, we collected 46 species of 26 families including 9 orders. Among them, the fish of family Gobiidae includes the most number of six species (13.6%). The dominant species was the Argyrosomus argentatus with 53.10%. Total of 17 fish species, including the Cynoglossus joyneri were collected from all of four collecting sites. On the other hand, 13 species including Inimicus japonicus were collected from only one site. Being the wind farm under construction, fish will temporary decrease in this area. But in the long term, we think that Oplegnathus fasciatus, Sebastes shlegelli and others will increase with good inhabited environment provided by the wind farm structures.

To determine seasonal fluctuations in abundance and species composition of the fishes, samples were collected by bottom trawl off Kohung Penisula from February to December 1999. A total of 7,197 fishes were sampled and identified into 123 species, 54 families, 13 orders and 2 classes. Of the 13 orders, Perciformes, Scorpaniformes, Pleuronectiformes and Tetraodontiformes accounted for approximately 82.9% of the total. Gobiid fishes were dominant, representing 13 species. Leiognathus nuchalis, Konosirus punctatus, Engraulis japonicus, Ilisha elongata, Trichiurus japonicus, Argyrosomus argentatus, Ditrema temmincki, Takifugu niphobles, Hexagrammos otakii and Lateolabrax japonicus accounted for 71.4% of the number of individuals.
