Authors have investigated the monthly distribution of vibrio flora in sea water, mud, fish and shellfish in the public beaches at the suburbs of Busan in order to determine the possible origins of food poisoning. The results are summarized as follows: 1. The monthly distribution shows that V. parahaemolyticus occurs from May to November and V. alginelyticus all the year round. 2. A total of 40 strains of Vibrio flora were isolated from 40 sea water samples, 25 strains from 40 mud samples, If strains from 88 shellfish samples, and 3 strains from 30 fish samples. 3. More strains were isolated from the samples collected at Yongho and Suyeong that at the other localities. 4. A total of 80 strains of Vibrio flora, isolated from 198 samples, were divided into two groups : V. perahaemolyticus with 20 strains and V. alginelyticus 60 strains.

In this paper, the method of detecting sea fog through CCTV image is proposed based on convolutional neural networks. The study data randomly extracted 1,0004 images, sea-fog and not sea-fog, from a total of 11 ports or beaches (Busan Port, Busan New Port, Pyeongtaek Port, Incheon Port, Gunsan Port, Daesan Port, Mokpo Port, Yeosu Gwangyang Port, Ulsan Port, Pohang Port, and Haeundae Beach) based on 1km of visibility. 80% of the total 1,0004 datasets were extracted and used for learning the convolutional neural network model. The model has 16 convolutional layers and 3 fully connected layers, and a convolutional neural network that performs Softmax classification in the last fully connected layer is used. Model accuracy evaluation was performed using the remaining 20%, and the accuracy evaluation result showed a classification accuracy of about 96%.

The Gwangalli Beach, one of beaches representative of Busan together with the Haeundae Beach, is a tourist attraction, having increased tourists since the completion of Gwangandaero Bridge in 2003 and recording more than 10 million tourists in 2006. Although the competent local government office has conducted artificial beach nourishment/gravel removal projects every year to manage it, systematic monitoring and studies of erosion are insufficient. This study analyzed the changes in the coastline of Gwangalli Beach using aerial photos, tidal data, GPS survey data for the last sixty years, and examined how the Gwangandaero Bridge, which had been constructed on the Gwanganlli sea, has affected the changes. The results show that the area of Gwangalli Beach has increased 40% for the last sixty years, and that the effects of Gwangandaero Bridge on the coastline are insignificant.

The purpose of the present study is to obtain some fundamental data for hygienic control of sanitary indicative bacteria of sea water in fish preservatory tanks at popular swimming beaches in Busan including Songdo, Kwanganri, Haeundae and Songjeong from July to August in 1982. The geometric mean values of coliform group and fecal coliform MPN (most probable number) of sea water of Kwanganri were 27,300/100ml and 8,700/100ml respectively, which showed the highest population of the study regions. MPN's of the sea water of beaches and fish preservatory tanks showed 21,000/100ml and 8,800/100ml respectively at Kwanganri, which were also the highest numbers. The degree of the hygienic bacteriological populations of both the seawater and that of the fish tanks at a same region showed similar trend. The pollution caused by coliform group generally increased as viable cell counts increased. The types of coliform organisms isolated from seawater in fish presorvatory tanks by IMViC reaction were 42% Escherichia coli group, 2% Citrobacter freundii group, 44% Klebsiella aerogenes group and 12% others.

A number of cities are committed to enhancing the barrier-free (BF) environments. However, no attempts have been made to examine the BF environment design concept by accounting for the universal BF components, which should be improved for providing both disabled people and non-disabled people with better BF environments. With this challenge in mind, this study determines the improvement priorities of BF components for beaches in the city of Busan by investigating the results of satisfaction survey, which was administered to disabled and non-disabled visitors. The modified importance-performance analysis (M-IPA) results show that "sanitation facilities" are the universal BF components having the highest improvement priority. The analysis results also indicate that "access facilities" have the second highest improvement priority for disabled people while "amenity facilities" have the second highest improvement priority for non-disabled people. It is highly expected that the suggested improvement priorities of BF components can be used for policy makers to develop more flexible plans when designing the BF beach.

Early developmental stages of Mactra chinensis were bioassayied to determin the water quality of the costal waters of Busan. The water samples were obtained at 12 stations from July 12 to July 17, 1977. Water quality evaluation was made in terms of the rates of normal development to abnormal development in three indicatory states, i. e. fertilization membrane formation, morula and trochophore larvae. The pollution degree of the waters brought from five swimming beaches was found to be highest at Haewundae followed by Songdo, Kwang-anri, Songjeong and Dadaepo with decreasing order. The highest value of the water at Haewundae was mainly due to the accidental oil spill from an oil tanker which happened on July 7, 1977. At Dongsamdong the rate of total abnormal development was $47.17\%$. This result is apparently attributable to fish byproducts discarded from a number of restaurants. At Chungmudong where a large fish-market is located, the rate of total abnormal development was $61.14\%$. At Suyeng Bay and Yongho Bay the rates of total abnormal development were $73.82\%$ and $72.90\%$ respectively. At these bays the drainage presumably contains a large amount of chemical pollutants from the industrial areas. This result shows that no organisms can normally breed in these regions.

Recently, the development of various culture-independent identification techniques for environmental microbes has greatly enhanced our knowledge of microbial diversity. In particular, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of 16S rDNA fragments, generated using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is frequently used to examine the diversity of environmental bacterial populations. This method consists of direct extraction of the environmental DNA, amplification of the 200-600 bp 16S rDNA fragments with universal primers, and separation of the fragments according to their melting point on a denaturing gradient gel. In this study, we investigated the seaside microbial community in coastal areas of Busan, Korea, using culture-independent techniques. First, marine genomic DNA was extracted from seawater samples collected at Songjeong, Gwangahn, and Songdo Beaches. Then, PCR was used to amplify the bacterial 16S rDNA using universal primers, and DGGE was used to separate the amplified 500 bp 16S rDNA fragments. Finally, the tested 16S rDNA genes were further analyzed by sequencing. Based on these experiments, we found that DGGE analysis clearly showed variation among the regional groups. It can be used to monitor rapid changes in the bacterial diversity of various environments. In addition, the sequence analysis indicated the existence of many unculturable bacteria, in addition to Arcobacter, Pseudoaltermonas, and Vibrio species.

A data set of current, wind and wave height measured at the monitoring buoy and sea level at Busan harbor were analyzed to explain the physical conditions during the strong rip current events at Haeundae Beach of Suyeong Bay during 13~15 August 2009. Tidal current, with spring-neap variations, has similar average speed to the short-term non-tidal currents. The common features at the time of rip currents are the strong northeasterly wind and superposition of tidal and non-tidal currents both flowing toward the coast. However on 14 August when the rip current did not occur, tide and wave height were similar to the rip-current cases but the tidal and non-tidal current were to nearly opposite directions. While strong winds produce large waves thus the basic condition for rip current but its influence on the local circulation in the bay is relatively small. Of the three adjacent beaches, only at Haeundae the rip currents are reported. This difference may be due to the unique bottom topography featured by underwater hill in the central region off Haeundae which can decay the incoming waves, tides and currents to intensify the rip current.

In spite of continued nourishments, Haeundae Beach in Busan has been suffering from erosion, this being caused by the increased wave energy due to global warming and intermittent typhoon reported by previous works. In the meantime, the typhoon Chaba hit Basan in October 2016. In order to investigate the effects of the typhoon in beach erosion and how fast the beach recovered after the typhoon, repeated beach profiling using a VRS-GPS system was carried out, and the grain size analyses for surface sediments sampled on the beach were conducted. Immediately after the typhoon invasion, Haeundae beach was eroded by 1.4 m in average height. The mean high tide lines were retreated back by 12 m, and beach slope became gentler from $3.8^{\circ}$ to $1.7^{\circ}$. The mean grain sizes of surface sediments became coarser from $1.6{\Phi}$ to $1.2{\Phi}$ after two months, and the sorting well sorted. After two months of typhoon landfall, the mean high tide lines have recovered by 85%, and the beach topography almost recovered. This suggests that the impact of typhoons on Haeundae beach erosion is negligible, and the relaxation time is shorter than that of other beaches.
