  • The bryozoan assemblage from Seogwipo Formation in Jejudo yielded 33 taxa, including seven cyclostomes and 26 cheilostomes. It is the first fossil bryozoans described from the entire Korean peninsula. Five species, Callopora inermis, Tegella horrida, Celleporaria reflexa, Porella rotundirostris, and Rhynchozoon obliquimandibulatum, are new to the Korean bryozoan fauna as both in the Recent and fossil records. Tegella horrida, Celleporella reflexa, Porella donoghueorum, and Leischara subgracilis are notably cold-water species. This suggests that the Seogwipo Formation was primarily deposited in shallow water environment, subject to changesinfluenced by warm-water masses and temporarily impacted by cold currents. Only 33 species from the Seogwipo Formation in Korea, are very poor because the Seogwipo Formation is the only Pleistocene marine deposit in the Korean Peninsula. Eight species previously unknown as fossils worldwide, Tubulipora perforata, Puellina paracaesia, Reginella multipora, Celleporella reflexa, Exochella cryptodontia, Suhius cf. rubescentis, Cheiloporina cf. haddoni, and Jodoella koreensis are found in the Seogwipo Formation. This study is meaningful as it reports the first fossil assemblage of bryozoans from the Korean peninsula.

  • This study aims to propose the future plan and research management of a beach and the relation between spatial structure of a village and layout of the beach focusing on Gimnyeong beach among the 12 general beaches in Jejudo. The results are as followings: First, Gimnyeong beach had the relation to primary industries of residents in the village in times past and was the space for everyday lives of residents. However, at present it has the relation to tertiary industries and is more important in community activities. Second, the entry part and the sandy beach of Gimnyeong beach were crucial in location and function in times past but total size of the beach has expanded for campground nowadays. Therefore, it is necessary to change the location of entry part to center part of the beach. In addition, convenient and safe facilities are need to be built more to corresponding to expanding area of the beach. Finally, in order to maintain clean sea, residents in the Gimnyeong have agreed to not make sea farms in the vicinity of Gimnyeong Beach which pollute the sea. Their roles have influenced on positive effect to community of the village, management of the beach, and maintenance of clean sea.

  • Analysis on turbulence intensity profile depending on wind speed is an important process to set up design condition of wind turbine in terms of fatigue load. This paper tests goodness of fit of turbulence intensity empirical equations suggested by the IEC 61400 Standards with Jejudo Gimnyeong met-tower measurement, which is erected at a seashore. Therefore sea breeze and land breeze coexist. Sea breeze case showed apparent increasing trend of turbulence intensity in a high wind speed regime due to increase of sea surface roughness. However, neither inland wind turbine standard IEC 61400-1 nor offshore wind turbine standard IEC 61400-3 fit such a trend adequately. On the other hand, the modified empirical equation of turbulence intensity of IEC 61400-3 derived from Germany FINO1 application study by considering turbulence intensity behavior in a high wind speed regime showed good agreement with the measurement. Therefore, we can reconfirm and conclude that IEC 61400-3 Ed.1 legislated in 2009 needs to be modified.

  • This is the first report of Lactoria diaphana (Tetraodontiformes: Ostraciide) from Korea. A single specimen (208.0 mm standard length) was collected off the coast of Jejudo Island by gill net on 14 November, 2011. This species is characterized by having a pair of strong spines in front of the eyes, a slightly curved spine on the dorsal ridge, a pair of strong and short spines on the ventro-lateral ridge and various-sized spots on the body. We add L. diaphana to the Korean fish fauna and propose a new Korean name, "So-ppul-bok" for the species.

  • In 2005, an unrecorded bryozoan, Bantariella sp., invading on black corals was observed at Munseom in Jejudo Island. An intensive study was performed in the portion of 180 m width and $10{\sim}30m$ deep of Hangae-chang at Munseom during the period from Jan. to Nov. 2006. The following two black corals, Antipathes japonica and A. lata are occurring in this area. To investigate the quantitative change of invasion rates, 26 colonies with initial invasion rate of 0%, 30%, 70% and 100% respectively were individually tagged at the beginning of this study. After that, the change of reinvasion rates was monitored in a timely manner with the pictures taken by underwater camera and ensile observation. These data were analyzed as to host species, depth and initial invasion rates. According to host species, the removal effect was higher in A. lata than A. japonica. The reinvasion rate of black corals showed a maximal effect at $20{\sim}30m$ deep, and the most successful removal effect appeared in the colonies of initial invasion rates of $30{\sim}70%$. Especially, the invasion of Bantariella sp. on black corals is related to seawater temperature in seasonal manner and this appearance was limitedly observed at Munseom. This study is to document the impact by bryozoan proposing removal methods and its proper time of removal. It could contribute to the conservation of black corals and furthermore help to predict the change of marine environments.

  • This is the first report of Scomberoides lysan (Perciformes: Carangidae) from Korea. Two specimens (334 and 354 mm standard length) were collected by a set net from the coastal waters of Jejudo Island on 30 September, 2010. This species is characterized and distinguishable from a morphologically similar Scomberoides tol as follows. It has the posterior end of maxilla reaching to the posterior margin of eye (vs. not reaching in S. tol) and two rows of 5~8 small blotches on both sides of body (vs. one row of blotches). We add S. lysan to the Korean fish fauna and propose a new Korean name, "Du-jeom-jul-ga-si-jeon-gaeng-i" for the species because it has two series of dusk blotches on both sides of body.

  • A single specimen (30.35 mm standard length) of Ptereleotris evides was collected from the southern coast of Jejudo Island, Korea, in September 2017 during a skin diving outing. Ptereleotris evides is characterized by having a slightly elongated body, six spines on the 1st dorsal fin, one spine and 25 soft rays on the 2nd dorsal fin, 22 pectoral fin rays, one spine and four soft rays on the pelvic fin, one spine and 25 soft rays on the anal fin, and no disc in pelvic fin. This species differs from the congeneric species, P. hanae and P. heteroptera in having no elongated rays on the caudal fin and a black spot at the ventral margin of the caudal peduncle, respectively. Molecular analysis results based on mitochondrial DNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences showed that our specimen almost corresponded to P. evides (99.82%) sequences from registered at the NCBI. As this is the first record of P. evides in Korean waters, we propose a new Korean name for it, "Ga-mak-cheong-hwang-mun-jeol".

  • A single specimen of Caranx melampygus (113 mm standard length), belonging to the family Carangidae, was firstly collected by a set net from the coastal waters of Jejudo Island, Korea. This species is morphologically similar to C. sexfasciatus except for the posterior end of maxilla not reaching the posterior margin of eye (vs. reaching in C. sexfasciatus) and no black blotch on the upper part of opercle (vs. black blotch). We newly add this species to the Korean fish fauna and propose its new Korean name "Jag-eun-ip-jul-jeon-gaeng-i" for the species because it has relatively smaller upper jaw when compared with C. sexfasciatus.

  • This is the first report of Chaetodontoplus melanosoma, belonging to the family Pomacanthidae, collected in Korea. The specimen (123.1 mm in standard length) was caught in the coastal waters of Jejudo Island by a trammel net on 23 February 2010. This species was characterized by the following morphological traits: 26 dorsal fin rays, 16 pectoral fin rays, 6 pelvic fin, 21 anal fin rays, no blue strips on the body, no markings behind the eye, and an egg-shaped faint black spot on the base of the pectoral fin. We suggest a new Korean name "Geom-eun-cheong-jul-dom" for C. melanosoma.
