A single specimen of Brama orcini (267.0 mm standard length, SL), belonging to the family Bramidae, was collected by purse seine from Jeju Strait, Korea, in December 2013. The specimen is characterized by having 16 gill rakers, 54 lateral line scales, and 36 vertebrae. B. orcini is distinguished from the most similar species, Brama japonica, by the number of lateral line scales (52-54 in B. orcini vs. 65-75 in B. japonica). We propose a new Korean name "Keun-bi-neul-sae-da-rae" for B. orcini.

Tsushima Warm Current(WD entering into the East Sea through the Korean Strait flows northeastward and during this travel it shows complicated movement like meandering and eddy. It is considered that these variations of TWC are important causes making water masses unstable and also have influence on biological and chemical properties of water masses. Lee and Cho(2000) suggested that meandering of TWC in adjacent waters of Noto peninsula has much influence on fluctuation of current structure. (omitted)

하계 대한해협 서수도에는 연직적으로 특성이 서로 다른 세 개의 수괴가 존재한다. 그 중 표층수에 대하여 인접 해역의 해수 특성과 상호 비교함으로써 그 기원과 유로를 추정하였다. 그 결과, 표층수는 동지나해의 대륙붕 상에서 형성된 Kuroshio수와 중국대륙연안수의 혼합수로써, 중국대륙연안수의 영향을 더 많이 받는 것으로 나타났다. 대부분의 표층수는 Kyushu Island의 서쪽 해역, 경도 126$^{\circ}$E와 127$^{\circ}$E 사이 해역과 제주도 동쪽 해역을 거쳐 유입되고, 한국 연안 부근에 있는 일부 표층수는 제주도 서쪽해협을 거쳐 유입된 것으로 나타났다.

The genus Nippoleucon was newly established within the family Leuconidae and two Hemileucon species, N. hinumensis (Gamo, 1967) and N. enoshimensis (Gamo, 1967), were transferred to this genus. Through examination of the cumacean specimens from the Gwangyang Bay of the Korea Strait, N. hinumensis is recorded as new to Korean fauna. The genus Nippoleucon is reported from Korea for the first time.

A barotropic model is run over the Northwest Pacific Ocean to examine the formation and transport of the Tsushima Warm Current. The results indicate that the Tsushima Warm Current is a downstream extension of the Taiwan Warm Current. Local wind does not change the amount of transport of Tsushima Warm Current but it changes much the initial flow pattern of Tsushima Warm Current such that for southerly wind, the transport is through the Taiwan Strait but for northerly wind, it is through the eastern side of Taiwan.

Some siphonophores were collected from the Korea Strait, $33^{\circ}59'N-129^{\circ}17'E$ and Yeosu with Issacs-Kidd Midwater trawl net in Sep. 2002. They were identified into Diphyes chamissonis is Huxley, 1859 and Abylopsis eschscholtzi(Huxley, 1859) in the suborder Calycophorae of the order Siphonophora, respectively. They are new to the Korean fauna. As a result of this work, six siphonophores of four families have been reported in Korea.

Six phytal harpacticoid species of the genus porcellidium are recorded from 22 algal species in the eastern (Sea of Japan) and southern (Korea Strait) coast of Korea. Among these six species, Porcellidium ofunatense Harris and Iwasaki and Porcellidium gamoi(Harris and Iwasaki) are recorded as new to Korean fauna. Other four species are described as new to science: Porcellidium bipartitum n. sp. found from a single algal species, Procellidium wandoensis n. sp. from ten algal species, Porcellidium acutum n. sp. from five algal species, and Porcellidium brevlcacum n. sp. from two algal species. It is found that the associations between the species of Porcellidium and macroalgae reveal weak specificities.

A time mean surface velocity field was estimated from AVHRR/SST in the Korea Strait. Time duration of SST data set was not different from tidal period and tidal elimination was investigated. The velocity field was estimated by inverse method and compared with results of ADCP observation and results of Odamaki(1989). In accordance with results. tidal component was eliminated partially in case that there were a little difference between total time interval of 557 data set and tidal period.

The objective of this research work is to develop an autonomous levee-weeding robot. In this paper, pathway control system for the robot is developed and simulated. A prototype autonomous vehicle for levee weeding is also developed and used in the actual test. The results obtained in this research work is summarized as follows; 1) The simulated typical time history of lateral displacements and heading angle of the vehicle in straight run shows that the vehicle tendency is always to achieve the target path from any of its deviated position and heading angle. 2) The test run on an asphalt surface by the prototype crawler-type vehicle is in good agreement with the simulation results.

Anthropogenic changes have been made to the water budget for the Mediterranean Sea as a result of river diversion projects. The decrease in freshwater inflow to the Mediterranean represents an effective increase in the overall net evaporation over the basin. Hydraulic control models for the exchange between the Mediterranean and Atlantic through the Strait of Gibraltar predict that the salinity of the Mediterranean should increase if the net evaporation over the Mediterranean increases. Increases in the salinity of the deep waters in both the western and eastern Mediterranean basins have been observed. The causes of such higher deep water salinity are attributed to increases in intermediate water salinity which are ultimately mixed down into the deep sea during wintertime buoyancy loss events. The pattern of the Mediterranean salinity increase is instructive for understanding how the water mass properties in a basin change over time as a result of anthropogenic changes.
