This study was carried out to select the utilizable vegetations for the stabilization of slopes and river banks, landscape creation and water quality cleansing in dams, lakes and streams. In this study, 10 herbaceous plants were investigated for their survival and growth characteristics under complete and partly flooding conditions in the nursery. The ranking order of flooding tolerance based on survival ability showed that Iris pseudoacorus, Phragmites communis and Phragmites japonica were first, Typha angustata, Miscanthus sacchariflorus and Pennisetum alopecuroides were second, and Cymbopogon tortilis, Miscanthus sinensis, Kummerowia striata and Lolium multiflorum were last. That of flooding tolerance base on growth ability showed that Iris pseudoacorus, Phragmites communis, Phragmites japonica, Typha angustata and Miscanthus sacchariflorus were first, Pennisetum alopecuroides, Miscanthus sinensis and Kummerowia striata were second, and Cymbopogon tortilis and Lolium multiflorum were last. Espcially, Miscanthus sacchariflorus, Iris pseudoacorus, Phragmites japonica and Phragmites communis showed good survival and growth abilities when they were complete flooded for 60 days. Also high flooding tolerant species grow as better as flooding period longer under the partly flooding condition. It was found that Pennisetum alopecuroides and Kummerowia striata have excess moisture tolerance because they showed good survival and growth under the partly flooding condition. This study confirmed that the possibilities of utilizing Iris pseudoacorus, Typha angustata, Phragmites japonica, Phragmites japonica, Phragmites communis, Miscanthus sacchariflorus, Pennisetum alopecuroides and Kummerowia striata as the efficient plants for vegetation measures on the flooded slopes of dam and various impoundment sites.

The present study eluciciated the effect of water holding matter on emergence and survival of forage grasses in seedling and early growth stage. Vermiculite was used as u7ater holding matter. Experiment was conducted with 2 treatments, soil only and soil with 3% vermiculite. The results obtained were as follows: Most of character related to emergence and early growth were improved clearly by adding vermiculite. Specially, root growth was increased when vermiculite was added in soil. Survival percent at drought stress condition was also improved by adding vermiculite. Rut the amount of water keeping by verm~culite was not much.

The growth and survival rate of larvae and juveniles from female rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli) broodstock in vitellogenesis by injection of 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine $T_3$ with a dose of 20 mg/kg fish wt. were examined for 30 days and compared with sham-control fish injected dime-thyl sulfoxide and control fish. Larvae were fed with rotifers for first 5 days after parturition, rotifers and Artemia nauplii for next 10 days. And then, they were fed with Artemia nauplii and commercial diet. Growth of larvae and juveniles from maternal $T_3$injection was significantly faster than that of two controls, nevertheless, the condition factor was lower than that of controls. The whole body proximate analyses indicated that there were significant effects of $T_3$ injection on protein and lipid, but no significant on moisture and ash contents. Survival rate of the fish from maternal $T_3$injection was significantly higher than that of fish from the two controls. These results indicate that thyroid hormone supplements appear to confer a distinct advantage to larval and juvenile rockfish in early, fragile development stage.

This study compared the survival rates, growth, and fatty acid content of larval Pacific cod Gadus macrocephalus fed with rotifers raised on different enrichment diets. We used four commercial rotifer enrichment products (one domestic, ER1, and three imported, ER2, ER3 and ER4). Twelve 200-L tanks were used, with three replicates per treatment. Larvae were fed rotifers 3 times daily at a rate of 5 rotifers/ml/feeding from 7 to 21 days post-hatch. At the end of the feeding trial, the survival rate and total length of larvae fed ER3 were greater than those of larvae fed ER1, ER2, or ER4. ER3 had the highest proportions of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and polyunsaturated acid (PUFA). Partially reflecting this composition, larvae fed ER3 had the highest proportions of DHA and PUFA. These results show a positive effect of rotifer DHA and PUFA proportions on the survival and growth rates of Pacific cod larvae.

Hybrid fish were induced between olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) female and spotted flounder (Verasper variegatus) male by artificial inseminations. Survival, growth and morphological changes in larval stage of hybirds were examined and compared to their parental species. Survival and growth up to 25 days after hatching of the hybrids were more similar to those of olive flounder than to those of spotted flounder (P<0.05). The ratio of yolk length to yolk width in hybrids was similar to that of female parents (P<0.05). The oil globule were resorbed within 18 days after hatching in hybrids and 14 days after hatching in olive flounder, and spotted flounder has no oil globule. These results indicated that survival, growth and morphological changes in larval stage of hybrids were similar to those of maternal olive flounder.

For the effective seedling production of the sweetfish, Plecoglossus altivelis, dietary value of live food in the growth and survival rate of the larvae was examined. To investigate dietary value of three types of rotifers (L-type, S-type, Us-type rotifer) for the sweetfish larvae, the larvae were fed with alone or mixed with each type and with mixtures of two or three types. Although the survival rates of the larvae fed different types of rotifers were not significantly different among them, the larvae fed a mixture of three types of rotifers showed the highest growth significantly. A feeding trial was conducted to determine the effect of the dietary values of rotifer and Artemia nauplius enriched with Chlorella ellipsoidea, $\omega-yeast$, spray-dried Spirulina platensis, and Super Selco for the sweetfish larvae. The dietary values of rotifer and Artemia nauplius enriched with Super Selco mixed with spray-dried S. platens is were distinctly improved for the survival rate and growth of the larvae. With regard to effect of the green water with Chlorella ellipsoidea, spray-dried Spirulina platensis, and the addition of photosynthetic bacteria (Rhodopseudomonas capsulatus), the green water with Spirulina platens is mixed with photosynthetic bacteria also enhanced the growth and survival rate of the larvae.

The effect of different feeding rate on the growth and survival rate of 3-year-old abalone, Haliotis dicsus hannai were investigated in marine net cage culture. Feeding rate is determined that was fed 5, 10, 15 and 20 percentage to abalone at body weight once daily : 5 daily feeding rate (DFR), 10 DFR, 15 DFR and 20 DFR. After that, it was conducted to reared during thirteen month with two replicates in net cage culture. In the growth performance of reared abalone (initial mean shell length $73.77{\pm}11.27mm$) in net cage culture, that the absolute growth rate (ARG), daily growth rate (DGR) and specific growth rate (SGR) to the shell length and shell breadth, as well as weight gain (WG), daily weight gain (DWG) and specific weight gain (SWG) to body weight of 5 DFR were higher than those of different groups (P < 0.05). Also, survival rate of all feeding rate groups was not significant, but it was showed bellow 30 percents. Therefore, these results is showed that the daily feeding rate for natural feed of 3-year-old abalones reared in net cage culture should be to supply among five to ten percents.

We studied possibility of the sowing culture at the bottom after intermediate culture as a method for raising the survival of the Purplish Washington clam, Saxidomus purpuratus. The pearl net ($35cm(W){\times}35cm(B){\times}20cm(H)$) for S. prupuratus spat during the period of intermediate culture (hanging culture) from April to October in 2010. The pearl net (100 inds./net) was installed at two stations (Namhae and Pohang) being about 3-4 m in water depth. After hanging culture, S. prupuratus spat sowed in the bottom of the Gangjin Bay. The survivals (%) of intermediate culture of this species at Namhae station and Pohang station were 73% and 74%, respectively. Daily growth rate of mean shell length and mean weight in Namhae station were higher than those in Pohang station. After sowing at the bottom of the Gangjin Bay, its survival (%) showed 73.98% in January 2011. These results suggested the possibility of the intermediate culture as hanging culture for raising survival rate of S. prupuratus.

Objective: To analyze the prognostic factors thought to be related with survival time after a spinal metastasis operation. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 217 patients who underwent spinal metastasis operations in our hospital from 2001 to 2009. Hematological malignancies, such as multiple myeloma and lymphoma, were excluded. The factors thought to be related with postoperative survival time were gender, age (below 55, above 56), primary tumor growth rate (slow, moderate, rapid group), spinal location (cervical, thoracic, and lumbo-sacral spine), the timing of radiation therapy (preoperative, postoperative, no radiation), operation type (decompressive laminectomy with or without posterior fixation, corpectomy with anterior fusion, corpectomy with posterior fixation), preoperative systemic condition (below 5 points, above 6 points classified by Tomita scoring), pre- and postoperative ambulatory function (ambulatory, non-ambulatory), number of spinal metastases (single, multiple), time to spinal metastasis from the primary cancer diagnosis (below 21 months, above 22 months), and postoperative complication. Results: The study cohort mean age at the time of surgery was 55.5 years. The median survival time after spinal operation and spinal metastasis diagnosis were 6.0 and 9.0 months. In univariate analysis, factors such as gender, primary tumor growth rate, preoperative systemic condition, and preoperative and postoperative ambulatory status were shown to be related to postoperative survival. In multivariate analysis, statistically significant factors were preoperative systemic condition (p=0.048) and postoperative ambulatory status (p<0.001). The other factors had no statistical significance. Conclusion: The factors predictive for postoperative survival time should be considered in the surgery of spinal metastasis patients.

The observed the toxic effect of WSF (Water Soluble Fraction) on development time, development rate, attachment rate, survival rate and growth of the larva during the early stage of the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas. The time required early juvenile from the fertilized eggs exposed to crude oil (WSF) was about 13 hours in control group. But that of the crude oil dose group takes 12 hours, with shorter compared to control group. Development and attachment rate of the oyster significantly higher in 0.4 and 0.8 mg/L WSF compared to control group (P<0.05) but significantly lower more than 1.6 mg/L WSF (P<0.05). Survival rate of the oyster larva significantly higher in 0.4 and 0.8 mg/L WSF compared to control group (P<0.05) but significantly lower more than 2.4 mg/L WSF (P<0.05). Survival rate of spot showed no significantly difference compared to control group (P>0.05). Shell growth of the oyster were significantly lower more than 1.6 mg/L WSF compared control group (P<0.05). The effect concentration of crude oil showed that more 0.4 mg/L in development and attachment rate and more 1.6 mg/L in growth. Also, chronic exposure of crude oil even effect also in low concentration.
