This study investigated the trend in emaciation infection outbreak in olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) of Jeju island, South Korea, during 2014-2015. A total of 900 fish were systematically examined by PCR method using the EM-F/EM-R primer set in April, May, September, November, and December 2014, and the infection rate was recorded. In 2015, the same examination was conducted in March, May, July, and October but with 660 fish. It was found that the infection rate was 18.3~71.6% in 2014, which increased to 16.3~90.3% in 2015. Furthermore, September and December in 2014 and March, July, and October in 2015 showed a relatively higher infection rate. According to the infection trend analysis, which depended on the sample size, the infection occurred in all of fish sizes in this study and 11~30 cm fish group showed the highest infection rate. Histological examination confirmed that the kidney areas of the emaciating infected olive flounder contained several spores of $4{\sim}9{\mu}m$, and in severe cases, the elimination and destruction of tissue were confirmed by PCR. Thus, an important portion of farmed olive flounders in the Jeju region suffers from emaciation disease. This epidemiological survey serves as a useful reference on the emaciation disease of cultured olive flounders in Jeju

This study introduces and analyzes the energy for heating and cooling system in region with volcano-stratigraphic. The thermodynamic properties of air through the air blower installed at the entrance of borehole are measured. It estimates the availability of underground air for heating and cooling system through experimental data and theoretical analysis. Based on our conclusion from these calculations we predict possibility of over 40kW steady and stable energy source from underground. Therefore this underground air can be utilized in region with volcano-stratigraphic.

제주도에서는 절멸된 것으로 간주되었던 멧돼지들이 최근 한라산 인근지역에서 발견되었다. 본 연구는 분자유전학적 실험기법을 바탕으로 한라산 멧돼지들이 가축돼지들과 이종교배된 것들인지를 조사하였다. 또한 동일 종내에서의 유전적 유연관계와 분자 성판별을 시험하였다. 가축돼지 품종들(Landrace, Large White, Berkshire, Hampshire, Duroc)과의 교배여부는 핵 DNA와 미토콘드리아 DNA에서 4 종류의 분자 표지인자(MC1R, KIT, 조절영역, ND2)를 적용하여 시험하였다. 야생멧돼지 집단의 모든 개체들이 동일한 mtDNA 조절영역 서열을 나타내었고, 그 서열들은 중국 동북부 재래돼지들과 동일하였으나 기존에 보고된 한반도 멧돼지의 서열들과는 다른 것으로 확인되었다. 이상의 연구결과는 한라산 멧돼지집단이 중국 재래돼지 품종들과 근연이면서, 기존에 연구되지 않았던 유전적 계통에서 유래한 것으로 사료된다. 분자 성판별 결과 수컷에 비해 암컷이 2 배 이상으로 확인되어, 한라산 야생멧돼지 집단이 팽창하고 있으며, 조절하지 않으면 집단 규모는 극적으로 증가할 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to develop geochemical tracers to identify a specific source desert of mineral dust in China using the published data. In addition, we tested the applicability of these tracers to wet-deposits and soil samples collected in Jeju, Korea. Because of similarity in trace elemental compositions of mineral dust from the major arid regions in China, such as Taklimakan, West Ordos (Badain Jaran), East Ordos (Mu Us and Hobq), East Northern China (Horqin), West Northern China (Gurbantunggut), and Chinese Loess Plateau, there has been limited to the use of geochemical data for source identification. Here we propose the four (4) plots using combination of seven (7) geochemical variables as a source indicator to distinguish one from other source regions in China: $\frac{Y}{Tb_N}$ vs. $\frac{Th}{{\Sigma}REE_N}$, $\(\frac{La}{Gd}\)_N$ vs. $\frac{Y}{{\Sigma}REE_N}$, $\frac{Th}{Tb_N}$ vs. $\frac{Y}{Nd_N}$, and $\frac{Th}{Tb_N}$ vs. $\(\frac{Ce}{Ce}\)_N^*$, where $_N$ and $\(\frac{Ce}{Ce}\)_N^*$ stand for values normalized to Post-Archean Average Shale composition and Ce anomaly, respectively. Mineral dusts from aforementioned six major deserts are distinguished one from the others by the combined use of these variables. Jeju rock and soil samples form a separate domain from Chinese mineral dusts in all four plots. In contrast, most of Jeju dust samples were comparable with the West Ordos desert (Badain Jaran) domain, indicative of strong influence of Badain Jaran dust in Jeju in spring season when the mineral dust was collected. A weak positive Ce anomaly in Jeju samples implies minimal local contribution. Our study suggests that the combination of $\frac{Y}{Tb_N}$ vs. $\frac{Th}{{\Sigma}REE_N}$, $\(\frac{La}{Gd}\)_N$ vs. $\frac{Y}{{\Sigma}REE_N}$, $\frac{Th}{Tb_N}$ vs. $\frac{Y}{Nd_N}$, and $\frac{Th}{Tb_N}$ vs. $\(\frac{Ce}{Ce}\)_N^*$ can be used to identify a specific source region of mineral dust in China as well as Jeju mineral particles.

DNA extracted from ancient bones of Cervidae animals was examined to identify the species and to determine the phylogenetic relationships to those from extant cervids. Abundant ancient bones were excavated from Kumsung archaeological site in Jeju Island, Korea, and were identified as Cervidae animals based on morphological features of their antlers and lower mandibles. Their mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region (CR) was partially sequenced and subsequently compared with those previously reported in database. The results confirmed that the ancient sequences are lineage of Cervidae. On the phylogenetic trees constructed using the sequence diversity of the CR sequences of family Cervidae, the ancient DNA sequences were found on distinct clusters. The ancient sequences were located in the subfamily Capreolinae cluster, and six ancient sequences were closely related to those of extant Korean roe deer in Jeju Island and Korean Peninsula. Consequently, the results of this study suggest that the roe deer inhabited Jeju Island in ancient times. However, there is no evidence for the existence of subfamily Cervinae, including Sika deer, while it has been described in several historical records. The results suggest that this finding could contribute to understanding of the origin and phylogenetic relationships of extant and ancient roe deer on Jeju Island.

본 연구에서는 상대적으로 바람이 강한 제주지역에서 바람의 영향이 고층건축물의 굴뚝효과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 분석하기 위해 서울소재 고층건축물을 대상으로 서울과 제주지역에서의 지형 및 기상조건을 각각 대입하여 CONTAM 모델링을 실시하였다. 굴뚝효과에 의한 차압은 수직샤프트의 높이와 실내 외 온도차의 함수로서 같은 높이의 건축물에서는 겨울철 서울보다 상대적으로 외기온도가 따뜻한 제주지역에서의 차압이 서울지역의 60% 정도에 그쳐 비교적 안정적인 것으로 판단되어 왔다. 그러나 제주도는 섬지역으로서 서울보다 강한 바람의 영향에 의해 중성면이 56% 이상 큰 폭으로 상승하는 현상을 보였는데, 이는 비록 제주지역이 서울보다 굴뚝효과에 의한 차압은 적게 나타날지라도 상승된 중성면에 의해 저층부에서 형성되는 부압의 영역이나 크기는 넓고 크게 나타나 위험성이 상대적으로 높은 것으로 판단되었다.

The purpose of this study is to provide information about annual variations in catch size and changes in reproductive biology in the common octopus, Octopus vulgaris, a commercially important species in Jeju Island. Samples were collected from coastal waters of Jeju Island, Korea by coastal trap fishery from January to November 2021. Octopus vulgaris have been decreasing in this region since 1984. The mantle length (ML) ranged from 4.5 to 17.8 cm and body weight (BW) ranged form 88.5 to 2,657.5 g. A χ²-test revealed that the number of males was significantly greater than females (χ² = 32.712, df = 10, P<0.05). Mature females were found from January to July and male occurred January to August. The gonadosomatic index value was higher from July to August than other months. The relationship between mantle length and body weight was BW = 2.4527ML^2.3139 (female) and BW = 2.6785ML^2.3159 (male). At 50% group maturity, female and male average weight was estimated to be 554.7 g and 330.6 g, respectively.

In the complex terrain where local wind systems are formed, accurate understanding of regional wind variability is required for wind resource assessment. In this paper, cluster analysis based on the similarity of time-series wind vector was applied to classify wind regions with similar wind characteristics and the meteorological validity of regionalization method was evaluated. Wind regions in Jeju Island and Busan were classified using the wind resource map of Korea created by a mesoscale numerical weather prediction modeling. The evaluation was performed by comparing wind speed, wind direction, and wind variability of each wind region. Wind characteristics, such as mean wind speed and prevailing wind direction, in the same wind region were similar and wind characteristics in different wind regions were meteor-statistically distinct. It was able to identify a singular wind region at the top area of Mt. Halla using the inconsistency of wind direction variability. Furthermore, it was found that the regionalization results correspond with the topographic features of Jeju Island and Busan, showing the validity.
