한국 서해 중부 연안의 12개 지소에서 조간대 해조류의 종조성과 생물량을 조사하였다. 조사지역에서 채집 동정된 해조류는 남조식물 19종, 녹조식물 20종, 갈조식물 32종 및 홍조식물 80종으로 총 151종이었다. 이 가운데 지충이(Sargassum thunbergii), 마디털(Stylonema alsidii) 및 꼬시래기(Gracilaria verrucosa)의 3종이 12개 조사지소 모두에서 출현하였다. 단위면적당 해조류 생물량은 백사장과 대천에서 41 g dry $wt{\cdot}m^{-2}$의 매우 낮은 평균 생물량을 보인 반면, 조사지역 가운데 가장 북쪽에 위치한 의항리에서 549 g dry $wt{\cdot}m^{-2}$로 가장 많았는데, 이 수준은 지금까지 서해안에서 측정된 해조류 생물량 가운데 가장 많은 양이다. 해조류의 문별 생물량 구성비율은 전반적으로 갈조식물이 가장 높게 나타난 반면, 녹조식물이 가장 낮았다. 출현종 가운데 지충이는 모든 조사지소에서 조간대 전반에 걸쳐 우점적인 생육을 보였다. 그러나 산호말류(Corallina spp.)는 조사지역의 상부인 태안반도의 지소들에서 우점적인 생육을 보였고 하부의 지소들에서도 부분적으로 출현하였으나, 중부의 지소들에서는 거의 출현하지 않는 분리 분포를 보였다.

심해와 연안의 서로 다른 해양퇴적토 환경에서 ATP농도를 이용한 총 미생물 생체량을 측정하였다. 표층 ATP의 분포는 연안역에서 가장 높았으며, 육지로부터 멀어질수록 감소하였다. 또한 수직적으로는 깊이에 따라 급격히 감소하는 양상을 나타내, 저층의 생태계가 수층으로 부터의 영양원 공급에 의해 일차적으로 조절되고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 유기물은 퇴적물로의 흡착으로 인해 환경 내 체류시간이 길어짐으로 인해, 유기탄소의 함량 변화가 ATP에 비해 급격히 일어나지 않았으며, 특히, 연안퇴적토의 경우 유기탄소의 함량 변화에 비해 ATP의 농도변화가 일정하게 나타나 두 변수간의 유의성 이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 분해가능한 유기물의 공급이 많은 연안퇴적토의 경우, 영양원에 의한 조절보다는 상위영양단계의 포식활동이 미생물의 생체량을 최종적으로 조절하는 요인으로 작용하기 때문 인 것으로 사료된다. 지역분포 특성 및 수직적 분포 특성으로부터 ATP는 서로 다른 저서 생태환경의 생체량 분석을 위한 일차적 인 도구로 유용하게 쓰일 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Seasonal variations in species composition and abundance of the fish assemblages in the coastal waters off Gadeok-do were determined using monthly sample collection by a small otter trawl in 2010-2011. Of a total of 65 fishes collected, the dominant species were Leiognathus nuchalis, Clupea pallasii, Thryssa kammalensis, Engraulis japonicus, Repomucenus valenciennei, Sillago japonica, Trachurus japonicus, Pennahia argentatus, Okamejei kenojei, Cynoglossus joyneri, Pholis fangi, Pleuronectes yokohamae, and Zoarces gillii. These 13 fishes accounted for 92.8% of the total number of individuals collected. The number of fish species, number of individuals, biomass, and species diversity indices fluctuated with the seasons. The peak number of fishes occurred in April, whereas the biomass of fishes was highest in August. The numbers and biomass of fishes were lower in February corresponding with the low temperatures, and diversity indices were lower in January than in any other month.

The seasonal and interannual variation in the species composition and abundance of the decapod assemblage (shrimps, crabs, and hermit crabs) collected using pots in the coastal waters off Gori were studied between 2005 and 2008. During the study period, 49 decapod species belonging to 19 families were collected. The dominant species were Crangon hakodatei, Pandalus gracilis, Carcinoplax longimana, Charybdis bimaculata, Carcinoplax vestita, Diogenes edwardsii, and Dardanus arrosor. These seven species accounted for 95.46% of the total number of individuals collected. The number of species, number of individuals, biomass, and species diversity indices fluctuated with the seasons. The peak number and biomass of individuals occurred in July 2006. The number and biomass of individuals were higher in summer and lower in winter, and the diversity indices were lower in summer than in the other seasons. The abundance of dominant species showed some seasonal and interannual change; in particular, those of C. hakodatei and P. gracilis corresponded with the bottom water temperature.

Marine algal flora and community structure were investigated seasonally at three sites in Ilkwang Bay on the southern east coast of Korea from May 2007 to February 2008. Total 103 species including 10 of green algae, 17 of brown algae, 76 of red algae were collected and identified. Among these species, 21 species were found throughout the year. Ulva pertusa, Enteromorpha linza, Grateloupia lanceolata, Chondracanthus intermedia and Caulacanthus ustulatus were distributed dominantly in upper intertidal zone. By contrast, crustose coralline algae, Grateloupia spp., Chondracanthus tenellus, Prionitis cornea and Sargassum spp. occurred predominantly in middle intertidal zone. Grateloupia spp., Sargassum spp., Ecklonia cava and Ulva pertusa were dominant in lower intertidal zone. Annual mean biomass in wet weight was 478.3 g m$^{-2}$. Maximum biomass was recorded in site 1 (731.8 g m$^{-2}$), and minimum was recorded in site 3 (78.5 g m$^{-2}$). The R/P, C/P and (R + C)/P value reflecting flora characteristics were 4.47, 0.59 and 5.06, respectively. Two groups produced by cluster analysis, one including sites 1, 2 and the other including site 3, showed meaningful difference in similarity, each other. Site 3 showed the limited species composition due to inflow of fresh water and absence of solid substratum. However, there was no significant difference between site 1 and site 2. In conclusion, the number of marine algae species and biomass in Ilkwang Bay were markedly reduced comparing with the previous studies. These suggest that a solution for reconstruction of the poor marine algal vegetation is considerably demanded.

In order to develop the sustainable ecological management, short-necked clams, Ruditapes philippinarum, were collected from Yoengi coast in Tongyoeng, Korea. The growth of the clam was estimated as: $L_f=68.08{\cdot}(1-e^{-0.145(t+0.324)})$ from ring radius composition of shell. Instantaneous co-efficiency of total mortality and natural mortality were calculated as: 0.991/year and 0.494/year, respectively. The age of the clams from the first capture was estimated to be 3.28. The total biomass was estimated to be 212 MT in the fisheries area (6.4 ha). Applied by these parameters, the annual recruit biomass and the current yield per recruit were calculated to be 649.5 individual/$m^2$ and $0.7\;g/m^2$, respectively. The current fishing intensity was much lower for maximum sustainable yield and acceptable biological catch. Although higher yield per recruit could be achieved by increasing fishing intensity, it is favorable to retain the current fishing intensity because of the unique fishing attitude on Yeongi coast in Tongyoeng, Korea.

There is a growing worldwide interest in the potential of marine biomass as an environmentally friendly and economically sustainable resource. Due to the great lack of comprehensive information about domestic seaweed resources, this study aimed to analyze the existing literature on the production and types of domestic seaweed species. Based on this data the possibilities of industrial use of domestic seaweed for the production of biofuels and bioplastics had been assessed. Our review took into account the seaweed species on domestic coasts as well as the species currently in great production via seaweed farming. Due to their wide distribution, their status as farmed crops, and the likelihood of securing their reliable supply, Codium fragile, Hizikia fuciformis, and Gelidium amansii were deemed to be the most appropriate candidates for domestic industrial use. The industrial potential of seaweed biomass was also explored by comparing the predicted amount of biomass necessary to replace current gasoline and plastics use with currently available farming space. The results of our study imply that once a steady and adequate supply of the proper kinds of seaweed can be secured through seaweed farming, there is a great potential for the development of new seaweed-based biofuels and bioplastics industries in Korea.

The marine benthic algal flora and biomass of Chuja Island, southern coast of Korea, was investigated. The collections of intertidal marine algae were made at two sites, Yecho of Hachujado and Hupo of Sangchujado, from October 2006 to July 2007. A total of 162 species, including 15 green, 47 brown and 100 red algae, were identified in this study. The occurrence of species according to season was abundant during spring to summer and less in autumn. The vertical distribution of intertidal zone in Chujado was characterized by Gloiopeltis spp., Myelophycus simplex, Ishige okamurae, Chondrus ocellatus, Grateloupia elliptica, Hizikia fusiformis and Sargassum spp. The average biomass of macroalgae was measured as 400 g wet wt m$^{-2}$. The dominant species based on the biomass were Sargassum yezoense, S. coreanum and Hizikia fusiformis. ESG II (ecological state group) as an opportunistic species, including sheet form, filamentous form, and coarsely branched form, occurred 85.8% in the intertidal seaweeds. These results provide a baseline for future monitoring studies in the Chuja Island.
