Two of the most important topics of the 21st century are ensuring harmony between man and his environment and the emerging long-tail economy in which niche markets are becoming increasingly more important. Since the Industrial Revolution in 17th century, human beings have increasingly exploited the world's natural capital, such as the natural environment and its ecosystems. Now the world is facing limits to sustainable economic growth because of limits to this natural capital. Thus, most countries are beginning to adopt a new development paradigm, the so-called"Green Development Paradigm" which pursues environmental conservation in parallel with economic growth. Recently, the Korean government announced an ambitious national policy of Low Carbon & Green Growth for the next six decades. This is an important step that transforms the existing national policy into a new future-oriented one. The fisheries sector in particular has great potential for making a substantial contribution to this national policy initiative. For example, the ocean itself with its sea plants and phytoplankton has an enormous capacity for fixing carbon, and its vast areas of tidal flats have a tremendous potential for cleaning up pollutants from both the sea and the land. Furthermore, the fishing industry has great potential for the development of fuel-saving biodegradable technologies, and a long-tail economy based on digital technologies can do much to promote the production and consumption of green goods and services derived from the oceans and the fisheries. In order for this potential to be realized, the fisheries authority needs to develop a new green-growth strategy that is practical and widely supported by fishing communities and the markets, taking into account the need for greenhouse gas reduction, conservation of the ocean environment and ecosystems, an improved system for seafood safety, the establishment of strengthened MCS (monitoring control surveillance) system, and the development of coastal ecotourism. In addition, fisheries green policies need to be implemented through a well-organized system of government aids, regulations and compensation, and spontaneous (voluntary) orders in fishing communities should be promoted to encourage far more responsible fisheries.

The real-time monitoring of radon ($^{222}Rn$) concentrations has been carried out to evaluate its ambient background concentration levels in Gosan site, Jeju Island between January 2001 and December 2004. In addition, the atmospheric TSP aerosols have been sampled, and their ionic and metallic components were analyzed to understand the characteristics of air pollution. The mean concentration of radon was $3,121{\pm}1,627\;mBq/m^3$, and the seasonal mean concentrations for spring, summer, fall and winter seasons were 2,898, 2,398, 3,571 and $3,646\;mBq/m^3$, respectively, The hourly concentrations have shown the highest value at 7 a.m. and the lowest value at 2 p.m. From the backward trajectory analyses, the radon concentrations have increased, when the air parcels were moved from the Chinese continent to Jeju area. On the other hand, they have decreased, when the air parcels from the North Pacific Ocean. In the analytical results of ionic species and metal elements of TSP aerosols, the concentrations of $nss-{SO_4}^{2-}$ and S were higher in June and March. Meanwhile, the concentrations of other anthropogenic species as well as soil components were mostly higher in March and April. On the basis of factor analysis, the TSP aerosols at Gosan area were largely influenced by soil sources, followed by anthropogenic sources and marine sources. From the result of backward trajectory analyses, the concentrations of $nss-{SO_4}^{2-},\;{NO_3}^-$, Al and Ca were mostly higher, when the air parcels moved from Chinese continent to Jeju area. On the other hand, their concentrations were lower, when the air parcels drifted from the North Pacific Ocean.

함암모늄 2:1 점토광물 내 암모늄 거동과 질소동위원소 특성을 살펴보기 위해 일본 남서부 해저 와카미코 화구(Wakamiko crater) 내 열수가 분출하는 두 지점에서 퇴적물 코어를 채취하여 스멕타이트로 대표되는 점토입자를 추출하였다. 점토입자 내 무기탄소 제거 후 순차적인 유기물 분해과정에서 감소하는 탄소-질소 비에 근거하여 무기질소 함량을 추정한 결과, 전질소에 대한 무기질소 비율은 SES 지점(Core#1093MG: av. 11.5%)에 비해 SWS 지점 (Core#1094MR: av. 18.2%)에서 높은 경향을 보였다. 후자에서 높은 광물 결정도를 보인 점은 상대적으로 진전된 광물화와 함께 교환성 암모늄이 비교환성 암모늄으로 전환된 결과로 해석된다. 단계적인 점토입자 내 교환성 암모늄의 제거과정에서 나타난 질소동위원소 조성 변화(SES 지점: Core#1093MG: -4.4 ~ +0.2 ‰, av. -2.4 ‰; SWS 지점: Core#1094MR: -0.7 ~ +3.0 ‰, av. +1.5 ‰)로부터 심부 마그마에서 비롯된 열류 및 열수에 의한 국부적인 온도변화는 함암모늄 2:1 점토광물의 형성에 관여한 유체 내 용존 암모늄과 암모니아 사이에서 질소동위원소 분별을 야기했을 것이다.

A new species of Eudactylopus Scott A., 1909 is described from the southern coast of Korea. The specimens were collected using a light trap set overnight at the entrance near a pier. Eudactylopus yokjidoensis n. sp. is similar to E. andrewi Sewell, 1940 and E. spectabilis (Brian, 1923) in two key respects: similar length of proximal and distal inner setae on female P2 enp-2, and modification of two subapical setae on male P2 endopod. However, E. yokjidoensis can be differentiated from the two species by following morphological characteristics: in females, the length ratio of cephalothorax/2nd-4th thoracic somites combined is smaller in E. yokjidoensis than other two species (1 : 0.8 vs. 1 : 1); antennule has nine segments (vs. 7-segmented in E. andrewi); P2 to P4 each bears a process in medial distal margin of basis, while it is just smooth in E. spectabilis; in males; the length ratio of cephalothorax to 2nd-4th thoracic somites combined is smaller in E. yokjidoensis than other two species (1 : 0.6 vs. 1 : 1 in E. andrewi and 1 : 0.8 in E. spectabilis); and P5 exopod has a comb-like innermost seta, while it is bipinnate seta in E. spectabilis. To prove the Korean species of Eudactylopus to be new, full descriptions of both sexes are given here, and the claim is supported by distinct genetic differences between E. yokjidoensis and E. spectabilis (22.3-22.7%) in the mitochondrial gene cytochrome oxidase subunit I(mtCOI) sequence.

Abundance and distribution of phytoplankton in seawater at southwestern East/Japan Sea near Gampo were investigated by HPLC analysis of photosynthetic pigments during summer of 1999. Detected photosynthetic pigments were chlorophyll a, b, $c_{1+2}$ (Chl a, Chl b, Chl $c_{1+2}$), fucoxanthin (Fuco), prasinoxanthin (Pras), zeaxanthin (Zea), 19'-butanoyloxyfucoxanthin (But-fuco) and beta-carotene (B-Car). Major carotenoid was fucoxanthin (bacillariophyte) and minor carotenoids were Pras (prasinophyte), Zea (cyanophyte) and But-fuco (chrysophyte). Chl a concentrations were in the range of $0.16-8.3\;{\mu}g/land$ subsurface chlorophyll maxima were observed at 0-10m at inshore and 30-50 m at offshore. Thermocline and nutricline tilted to the offshore direction showed a mild upwelling condition. Results from size-fraction showed that contribution from nano+picoplankton at Chl a maximum layer was increased from 18% at inshore to 69% at offshore on average. The maximum contribution from nano+picoplankton was found as 87% at St. E4. It was noteworthy that contribution from nano+picoplanktonic crysophytes and green algae to total biomass of phytoplankton was significant at offshore. Satellite images of sea surface temperature indicated that an extensive area of the East/Japan Sea showed lower temperature ($<18\;^{\circ}C$) but the enhanced Chi a patch was confined to a narrow coastal region in summer, 1999. Exceptionally high flux of low saline water from the Korea/Tsushima Strait seemed to make upwelling weak in summer of 1999 in the study area. Results of comparisons among Chi a from SeaWiFS, HPLC and fluorometric analysis showed that presence of Chi b cause underestimation of Chi a about 30% by fluorometric analysis but overestimation by satellite data about 30-75% compared to HPLC data.

Studies on carbon flux in the oceans have been highlighted in recent years due to increasing awareness about climate change, but the coastal ecosystem remains one of the unexplored fields in this regard. In this study, the dynamics of carbon flux in a vegetative coastal ecosystem were examined by an evaluation of net and gross ecosystem production (NEP and GEP) and $CO_2$ exchange rates (net ecosystem exchange, NEE). To estimate NEP and GEP, community production and respiration were measured along different habitat types (eelgrass and macroalgal beds, shallow and deep sedimentary, and deep rocky shore) at Gwangyang Bay, Korea from 20 June to 20 July 2007. Vegetative areas showed significantly higher ecosystem production than the other habitat types. Specifically, eelgrass beds had the highest daily GEP ($6.97{\pm}0.02g\;C\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$), with a large amount of biomass and high productivity of eelgrass, whereas the outer macroalgal vegetation had the lowest GEP ($0.97{\pm}0.04g\;C\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$). In addition, macroalgal vegetation showed the highest daily NEP ($3.31{\pm}0.45g\;C\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$) due to its highest P : R ratio (2.33). Furthermore, the eelgrass beds acted as a $CO_2$ sink through the air-seawater interface according to NEE data, with a carbon sink rate of $0.63mg\;C\;m^{-2}\;d^{-1}$. Overall, ecosystem production was found to be extremely high in the vegetated systems (eelgrass and macroalgal beds), which occupy a relatively small area compared to the unvegetated systems according to our conceptual diagram of a carbon-flux box model. These results indicate that the vegetative ecosystems showed significantly high capturing efficiency of inorganic carbon through coastal primary production.

본 논문에서는 준설토를 친수공간 조성과 같이 친환경적으로 재활용하기 위하여 고화준설토를 제작하였고, 역학적 특성과 식생 발아 특성을 분석하였다. 사용된 고화제는 고로슬래그 미분말을 기본재료로 고칼슘플라이애시 및 알칼리 복합 활성화제를 이용하여 제작한 고화제(Non Sintering Binder, NSB)이며, 비교 분석을 위해 포틀랜드 시멘트도 사용하였다. 고화준설토의 지반공학적인 개량 효과를 검토하기 위하여 유동성 시험, 단위중량 시험, 일축압축시험 등과 같은 다양한 실내 시험을 실시하고, 환경에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 중금속 용출과 식생 발아 실험을 실시하였다. 일축압축강도를 통하여 고화제의 함량이 증가할수록 모든 고화준설토의 강도가 증가하는 경향을 볼 수 있으며, NSB 고화준설토가 OPC 고화준설토보다 높은 강도를 나타냈다. 식생발아 실험 결과 OPC 고화준설토보다 NSB 고화준설토에서 발아 시기와 발아율이 우수하게 나타났다. 고화준설토의 pH와 7일 강도가 클수록 발아율과 발아 시기는 감소하는 경향을 보인다.

요오드산 이온의 황이온의 산화에 의해 화학양론적으로 형성되는 요오드이온과 methylene green과의 이온쌍을 1,2-dichloroethane으로 추출하여 656nm에서 분광광도법에 의해 황이온의 정량법을 확립하였다. 시료기질로부터 분리되어지는 황화수소는 pH 3.5 초산 완충용액과 요오드산 이온이 포함된 용액에 도입되어 완전히 전환되었다. 황이온의 정량범위는 $3{\times}10^{-7}{\sim}1.2{\times}10^{-5}M$ ($0.0096{\sim}0.384{\mu}g/ml$) 였으며, 검출한계는 $0.0032{\mu}g/ml$였고, 몰흡광계수는 $6.7{\times}10^4L\;mole^{-1}\;cm^{-1}$였다. 본 정량법을 하천수 중에 응용하였을 때 $5{\times}10^{-6}M$ 농도에서 상대표준편차는 1.59%로 미량에서 공존이온의 영향을 거의 받지 않고 재현성 있는 결과를 나타내므로 실시료 중에 효과적으로 응용할 수 있으리라 생각된다.

워터프린트는 도심 및 내륙지역과는 다른 독특한 기후특성을 가지고 있으며 이를 고려하지 않고 개발할 경우 시설물의 하자발생, 에너지 및 유지관리비용의 상승을 초래하게 됨은 물론 배후지, 도시기후에 악영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구는 부산지역의 10개 기상관측지점을 해안선에서 거리에 따라 워터프린트 및 내륙지역으로 분류하고 5년 간의 기상데이터를 이용하여 워터프런트의 기후특성에 대해 검토한다. 또 한 워터프런트 지역임에도 내륙지역과 유사한 기후특성이 나타나고 있는 대연지점을 대상으로 기후특성변화의 원인에 대해 검토한다.
