  • The problem of imbalance between supply and demand of fine aggregates in the southeastern region due to the decrease in collection of EEZ(Exclusive Economic Zone) sea sand has been raised. In this paper, the possibility of securing alternative aggregate as a means to solve the problem of fine aggregate shortage in the southeast region was analyzed. As a result of the analysis, the alternative aggregate is easy to manufacture and its quality can be secured. And, it is suitable to use as an aggregate with less environmental burden. In addition, institutional improvement measures are needed for effective utilization and recycling of alternative aggregates.

  • Information on maritime boundaries is essential to manage ocean and fisheries effectively in the era of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. With various information regarding to maritime boundaries analysed and reviewed, maritime boundaries are mainly divided into two categories such as international and domestic boundaries and also sub-divided into two aspects such as administrative and other boundaries. After clarification of boundary information, the geographical natures of boundaries, for instance datum, projection, line types, are reviewed. The Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is used for the establishment, management and utilization of boundary information due to its strong function in database, analysis, visualization, etc.

  • Only four species of leuconids have been recorded in Korea, all belonging to the genera Eudorella Norman, 1867 and Nippoleucon Watling, 1991. In this study, Pseudoleucon japonicus Gamô, 1964 belonging to family Leuconidae Sars, 1878 is newly recorded for Korean cumacean fauna. Also, for the first time, the male of the species is fully described and illustrated. The specimens were collected from the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in the western sea (Yellow Sea) of Korea, with a rectangular dredge during 2007-2008. This species is characterized by the following features: the carapace has strong serrations on the antero-lateral margin and a pair of short oblique ridges on the side surface; the ridges begin near the end of frontal lobe and merge with the dorsal median carina; the appendages, such as antenna 1, pereopod 2 and uropod have a lot of simple setae decorated with a bundle of hairs at the end. The present study represents the first record on the genus Pseudoleucon Zimmer, 1903 from Korea.

  • The purpose of this paper is to search for reasonable and fair principles applicable to the delimitation of the Exclusive Economic Zone(which is called the EEZ, hereinafter) around the Korean Peninsula th-rought the comprehensive study of maritime boundary, which is one of the most important issues in the law of the Sea. So far, the sea has been exploited for activities such as fishery, transport and military stratedy, and en-vironmental policy and so on. From this time on, however, it becomes important to us as the major trea-sure-house of various resources which will be developed and used for diversified purposes. For these rea-sons, nowadays, more and more countries of the world are competing to secure waters as much as possible within their jurisdiction. And the regime of the EEZ was created as a result of this international trend. At last, it has been institutionalized as the 200-mile EEZ of a legal notion in the Convention on the Law of the Sea, which was adopted at the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea, in Jamaica on December 10, 1982. In adapting to this EEZ institution, Korea is faced with several complicated problems as it is bounded on three sides by the sea and all of its neighboring countries such as the PRC, the DPRK, Japan, Russia etc are less than 400 miles away between opposite countries. Therefore, when trying to delimit the boun-dary for the EEZ, it appears necessary to analyze applicable principles and rules of international law for delimitation mainly through the Convention on the Law of the Sea, and studies the trends of actual State practices and recent international precedents. It is hoped that such knowledge will enable Korea to secure sufficient resources and other sovereign rights without conflicting with the neighboring countries concer-ned. For the achievement of the above mentioned object. I analyzed the necessities of the establishment of the EEZ in Korea, the difficulties and practices of Korea's neighbors, and the changes and forthcoming trends in Korea's relations with its neighbors concerned on the basis of the general explanation of the EEZ regime. In conclusion, it is my opinion that for the establishment of the EEZ delimitation which neighbors around the Korean Peninsula should be applied reasonable and equitable principles considering the rele-vant circumstances which characterize the area definitely as well as the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, 1982.

  • The removal of oil spilled by the sinking of a foreign ship in Korea's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) began in May 2019 four years after the ship sunk near Jeju Island. The cleanup was conducted by a foreign company that was contracted to the ship-owner's protection & indemnity (P&I) insurance company. In contrast to the time taken to begin the cleanup, the operation itself was completed in just 22days. Compared to similar cases, the decision to begin the removal was a delayed one. This study analyzes all 93 documents related to the ship's sinking and the eventual cleanup, confirming delays in administrative decision-making on the removal, and identifies factors that influenced this delay. These factors include a neglect of accident-related data verification, and other, legal, technical, environmental, and human aspects. Finally, this study suggests ways to improve decision-making efficiency. As the first study dealing with the cleanup in the EEZ, this research is expected to facilitate decision-making and influence the formulation of policies in the future.

  • The Korean fishery encountered a difficulty situation, due to the new regime of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and the decreasing fisheries resources in Korean waters. In addition, the coastal areas are deteriorated by industrial wastes, sewage, farming wastes and pollution from aquaculture. In this situation, it is necessary to study the TAC (total allowable catch) - based management system, the development of fishing gears and appropriate fishing methods for stock conservation, and the automation system of fishing gears for improving the efficiency of fisheries. The objective of this study is to look for an appropriate system in marine production and resource management under the new UNCLOS (United National Convention for the Law of the Sea) regime for subjects in fishing gears and methods, production system, and information, and fisheries resources management. The results of this study could be used as scientific information to maintain and develop the Korean fisheries and to establish fisheries policy for the management of fisheries resources in Korean waters.

  • This article not only theoretically explores the necessity and effect of constructive minilateralism and subregionalism in Northeast Asia, but also delves into a series of practical solutions from viewpoint of seeking common ground while reserving differences in this region. The main contents are as follows: First, the various obstacles that hinder the formation of regionalism, subregionalism and minilateralism in the Northeast Asia are discussed. That is to say, geopolitical realism, My Country First ideology, exclusive nationalism in the socio-historical context, and North Korea's latest provocations, etc. Second, this article explores the philosophy and basic principles of realizing Northeast Asia regionalism and minilateralism. Third, in the 21st century, Northeast Asia becomes the center of the world. It examines the core points, controversial focus and platform for building sub regionalism in the region. Finally, based on the institutional platform such as minilateralism and sub regionalism, the various ideas and practical plans of cross-border cooperation among major countries in Northeast Asia were discussed. Because there are a lot of obstacles, so first of all it is more appropriate to promote economic or functional minilateralism or sub regionalism than multilateral cooperation. In order to promote the formation of regionalism and minilateralism in Northeast Asia, the issues to be considered are as follows: First, for the sake of leading regional solidarity and minilateral economic cooperation, it is advisable for China, as a regional economic power, to implement a stable and responsible diplomacy. Secondly, regional solidarity based on credible politics and security should be promoted for a long time beyond the level of economic cooperation. Third, the primary prerequisite for the realization of Northeast Asian regionalism is that in the process of denuclearization of North Korea, the stability and peace mechanism of the Korean Peninsula should be established. Fourth, with the continued hegemonic competition between the United States and China in Northeast Asia, under the circumstance that countries in the region are pushed into so-called "East Asian Paradox", it is profoundly important for them to consider transition from the hostile relationship as the "Thucydides trap" to the order of "coexistence" in which competition and cooperation run side by side, and the two countries should explore a conversion plan for the foreign policy line. This mutual cooperation and peaceful coexistence of the US-China relationship will create a friendly atmosphere for the formation of regionalism in Northeast Asia. In the future, the cooperation of minilateralism in Northeast Asia will break the existing conflict between the maritime forces and the continental forces in order to promote peace. And along with the philosophy that "peace is economy", recent policies of common prosperity as the framework, such as China's "Belt and Road Initiative", North Korea's "Special Zone and Development Zone Policy", Russia's "New Eastern Policy", Japan's participation in the Belt and Road Initiative and South Korea's The "Korean Peninsula New Economy Map" are organically linked and it should promote the so-called "networked regionalism".

  • Based on samples collected from the Korean Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) during an investigation of fishery resources by the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute (NFRDI) from 2002 to 2010, alongside some supplemental material, six species of the genus $Plesionika$ are identified: $P.$ $izumiae$ Omori, 1971, $P.$ $ortmanni$ Doflein, 1902, $P.$ $grandis$ Doflein, 1902, $P.$ $lophotes$ Chace, 1985, $P.$ $narval$ (Fabricius, 1787), and $P.$ $orientalis$ Chace, 1985. Of these, the last four species are new to Korean marine fauna. The distributional range of $P.$ $narval$ extends to the East China Sea off Jeju Island. Excluding $P.$ $izumiae$ and $P.$ $ortmanni$, the other four species are relatively rare in the seas around Korea. They are described and illustrated with color photographs. A key to the Korean species of $Plesionika$ is also presented.

  • Since the middle of the 70s, the countries with the marine resources declared the exclusive water zone of two hundred miles. As a result, our country lacked many foreign fishing grounds. This awakened our perception of fishing grounds. The fishing ground is an important factor in the economical effectiveness of fisheries. The fishing ground must have the following basic conditions. 1. It must be the place the fishery resources inhabit and wander. 2. Their catching or aquaculturing must be possible by the technical methods. 3. It must have economic worth in the management. The fishing ground that achieves the above basic conditions is affected by the following factors. This is the factor of the fishing ground location. A. Natural factor 1). Suitable climate 2).Abundant resources 3). Good quality of the sea-bottom 4). Not to be pollutted area B, Economic factor 1). Be adjacent to fishing port and fisheries market 2). Good working conditions 3). Be abundant of economical resources C. Social factor 1). Be possible to work legally 2). Be permitted in the political relations 3). Be acquainted with the customs of foreign countries The fishing ground location is mainly affected by the natural factor of the above factors. The abundance of resources depends on the natural resources. The resources in the fishing ground have the cycle of developing period, maturing period, and decaying period according to the fishing efforts. The point that we sustainably yield the maximum of fishery resources is the changing point of maturing period and decaying period. We call this point MSY, so the resources of fishing ground should be managed by the MSY. Therefore, when we select the fishing ground location. We should judge the natural factor, the economic factor and the social factor synthetically according to the situation and environment, so we can achieve the efficient management.

  • The international marine system was plunged into the age of divided occupation with the adoption of the United Nations Convention on Law of the Sea in April, 1982. The exclusive economic zone of 200 Nautical miles set up by the Convention confirms the assertions of many coastal states whose fishing industries are not well-developed. However, it is unfavorable to the countries whose fisheries are being carried on in deep-sea, because the coastal state has sovereign rights to conserve and manage living resources in it. Under the circumstances the Korean deep-sea fisheries had to find ways out of the difficulties. The ways may be divided into two ways, namely, licensed fishing and joint-venture fishing. The former type becomes unfavorable to foveign fisheries because of decreasing quarts, rising fees and remunerations. The latter type properly meets the wishes of countries concerned and has some merits. However, there is a possibility of bearing the risk in case of investment in developing countries. The insurance system is effective to make up for the loss from the risk, although not perfect. The deep-sea fisheries depressed now by accumulated difficulties need more financial support from the Goverment for the active promotion of overseas joint-venture.
