The seasonal distribution and migration of flying squid, Ommastrephes bartrami (LeSueur), in the North Pacific were studied by means of mantle length, surface temperature, and catch and effort data of the Korean drift gillnet fishery from 1980 to 1983. The water temperature for the best fishing ranged from $15^{\circ}\;to\;16^{\circ}C$ in May through July and from $13^{\circ}\;to\;18^{\circ}C$ in August through January. High densities of flying squid were found in the thermal fronts with $18^{\circ}C$ isotherm in August and with $15^{\circ}C$ isotherm in September. The densities of flying squid were higher in the western region than in the eastern region in the North Pacific. The high densities of flying squid in the northwestern Pacific were attributed to the high gradients of oceanographic properties in the region. Migration models for flying squid were hypothesized based on the monthly distributions of catch per unit net, mantle length compositions by statistical blocks, and the hydrographic features of the North Pacific. The large flying squid moved to the northern region and to the central Pacific region earlier than the small sized group in the northward migration period (from June to August). Flying squid begin the reverse southward migration from the Subarctic Frontal Zone in autumn with onset of cooling and the development of Oyashio Current. The large sized group starts their southward return migration from more northern waters than the small sized group but the former moves past the later ana reaches the spawing ground first.

The Korean tariff rate for fishery products is a single tax rate of 10% for live fish and frozen seafood, and 20% for all others. Since FTAs have been concluded with several countries, the tariffs is not an appropriate means to protect domestic fishery producers. The differential tariff rate according to the scientific name (genus) of the fishery products, which was implemented 30 years ago to protect fishery products produced in the Korean coastal waters has lost its original purpose. It seems that future fishery trade policy should focus on IUU prevention, hygiene and safety of consumers rather than protecting fishery producers through customs tariffs. This paper suggest that a paradigm shift in the fishery producers protection policies such as direct financial support from the state, protection and development of fishery resources, and support for fostering the 6th industry rather than indirect protection through tariffs.

In the previous work(Kim et al, 1973), the quality of sun-dried Alaska pollack, Theragra chalch-ogramma, was discussed in the aspect of non-enzymatic discoloration as a function of relative humidity during storage at room temperature($20^{\circ}C$). In this paper, sun-dried squid, Ommastrephes steam pacificus was investigated at the same aspect mentioned above. Fresh squid from the whole sale market was dressed, filleted, dried for 48 hours in the open air and finally stored in the humidistat chamber. Lipid oxidation ana development of non-enzymatic browning were tested by the same methods described in the previous paper. The TBA value showed a maximum peak on 30 day storage, hereafter tended to decrease gradually. The rate of browning, however, in water soluble fraction as well as in chloroform-methanol fraction was lower at 0.34 to 0.45 water activity than at any other case, and propagation of lipid oxidation was also diminished at the above level of water activity. From the results, it is recognized that storage at Aw=0.34 to 0.45 provides higher quality stability for sun-dried squid.

This paper attempted to estimate mesh selectivity of gill nets for neon flying squid in the north Pacific Ocean. The 11 linear regressions, (P<0.05) were obtained using the data on catch ratios derived from mesh size combinations between two slightly different mesh sizes of 12 kinds of research gillnet (namely 33, 37, 42, 48, 55, 63, 72. 76, 86, 96, 105 and 115 mm in stretched mesh size). There was an increase in the optimum length with the increase in mesh size but standard deviation showed somewhat increase with the increase in the mesh size. The selectivity curves were well fitted to the length frequency distributions obtained from samples for the mesh sizes from 48 mm through 86 mm. For the mesh sizes of 33, 37 and 42 mm the DML (Dorsal Mantle Length) compositions were distributed towards the right hand-limb of the curves. The DML distributions from the 96 mm and larger meshes showed a trend towards the left hand-limb of the curves. The selectivity curves for different mesh sizes indicate that large mesh sizes catch a greater size range of squid, and the gill net fishery in the north Pacific Ocean captures effectively neon flying squid within the range of $9\~43cm$ DML.

Changes in proximate composition and protein quality were determined to find out appropriate processing conditions of the seasoned and smoked squid(Neon flying squid, Ommastrephes bartrannii). Moisture and crude protein contents were severely reduced (p<0.05), while increasing of fat and ash contents were not apparent. Seasoning and smoking contributed iii enhancing TBA value. Trypsin inhibitor(Tl) content was not increased severely after those processing steps. TI content checked in the all steps of squid processing was not correlated with the TBA value of squid in the same processing step. An improved digestibility and protein efficiency ratio(PER) were observed in the all products except with steak(mechanically soften product) in vitro enzymatic digestibilities of both raw Neon flying squid meats(mantle and arm) were significantly inferior(p<0.05) to other squid species.

Setting is an important process for the control of surimi quality in industry because it can improve the gel texture and water-holding capacity of surimi-based products. Therefore, the effect of setting on giant squid surimi-based product was analyzed via a mixture model. Konjac flour and microbial transglutaminase were used as texture enhancers. Both texture enhancers improved the texture and water retention ability (WRA) of giant squid surimi-based products, while decreasing the whiteness. Setting also improved the gel texture and WRA, while having no effect on the whiteness. Based on the sensory evaluation, the product with gel texture enhancers was better than the control and similar to commercial surimi products. Therefore, the applications of gel texture enhancers and setting are very important for the manufacture of giant squid surimi-based products.

We examined the quality characteristics of four kinds of Alaska pollack Theragra chalcogramma surimi (APS), five kinds of golden threadfin bream Nemipterus virgatus surimi (GTS), and two kinds of giant squid Ommastrephes bartrami surimi (GSS) used in Korea. The volatile basic nitrogen contents of APS, GTS, and GSS increased with decreasing grade to 6.8-9.8, 5.5-8.3, and 143.5-177.7 mg/100 g, respectively. The Ca²⁺-ATPase activities of APS and GTS decreased with decreasing grade to 0.63-0.83 and 0.60-0.80 pi μmole/min/mg, respectively. The Ca²⁺-ATPase activity of RA-grade GSS was 0.82-0.91 pi μmole/min/mg. The whiteness values of APS, GTS, and GSS heat-induced gels were 54.0-71.4, 53.9-71.0, and 52.2-70.3, respectively, and that of both APS and GTS decreased with decreasing grade. The gel strengths of APS and GTS heat-induced gels were 412.3-769.4 and 280.2-456.5 g·cm, respectively, and decreased with decreasing grade. The total amino acid contents of SA-grade APS, SSA-grade GTS, and RA-grade GSS were 17,328.1, 17,965.0, and 14,846.8 mg/100 g, respectively, and the major amino acids were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, arginine, leucine, lysine, proline, alanine, and phenylalanine. The primary minerals were sodium (136.6-164.9 mg/100 g), potassium (45.7-160.4 mg/100 g), phosphorus (35.0-73.5 mg/100 g), sulfur (22.8-56.4 mg/100 g), and calcium (18.0-203.4 mg/100 g).

The purpose of this study was to compare the eating experience and preferences for seafood among elementary school students in Gyeonggi-do. A survey was carried out on 383 elementary school students. As for the eating experience of seafood, the students were aware of and had eaten 'Scomber japonics (Go-deung-eo) (96.3%)', 'Anadara broughtonii (Jo-gea) (95.8%)', 'Ommastrephes sloani pacificus (O-jing-eo) (98.7%)', 'Panulirus japonicus (Sea-ou) (98.4%)', 'Porphyra tenera (Gim) (99.5%)', 'Shrimp, soused (81.2%)', 'Eo-muk (98.7%)', and 'Anchovy, dried (98.7%)'. As for the preferences for seafood, 'like (67.6%)', 'fair (21.5%)', and 'dislike (7.3%)' were observed. Concerning the frequency of seafood consumption, 4th grade students showed higher frequency of '1~2/week' compared to others (p<0.05). 6th grade students showed higher frequency of '3~4/week' compared to others (p<0.05). In terms of preferable cooking methods for seafood, 'grilling (35.0%)', 'soup (23.0%)', and 'raw fish (19.8%)' were observed. Boys showed a higher preference for 'grilling', 'frying' and 'raw fish' compared to the girls (p<0.05). Girls showed a higher preference for 'soup', 'braising' and 'steaming' compared to the boys (p<0.05). As for the seafood intake by eating place, 'home (60.1%)', 'eating-out (18.3%)', and 'school lunch menus (12.8%)' were observed in that order. Therefore, in order to increase the consumption and intake of seafood, students should attempt to achieve proper intake though information of nutrition and consistent nutritional education.

To investigate the catches of squid jigging fishery, a series of fishing experiments was conducted in the high seas of the Northwest Pacific($40^{\circ}-43^{\circ}N$, $150^{\circ}-155^{\circ}E$) during the period of 1 August to 22 October 2005 by commercial fishing vessel. The number of 142 test fishing was carried out in the Northwest Pacific during 83days. The total catch were 47,524kg as 4 squid species and CPUE was $8.9kg/line{\cdot}day$. CPUE showed high values in the frontal zone during the survey. Main squid species caught from the experimental fishing were the neon flying squid, Ommastrephes bartrami(96.8%) and the boreopacific gonate squid, Gonatopsis borealis(3.2%). Dorsal mantle length of the neon flying squid were increased by the time and increasing of the hook size. Loss rate of the neon flying squid in the water showed the highest values in 28.2% compare to the others. And the loss rate of the front roller and in the air were 1.1% and 1.0%, respectively.

In order to utilize the processing wastes of squid, chitosans were manufactured from the pens of domestic squid, Todarbdes pacificus and foreign squid, Ommastrephes bartrami and then, its rheological properties were studied. The amounts of nitrogen and minerals of the domestic squid pens were $11.4\%\;and\;0.1\%$ respectively, whereas those of its chitosan were $7.5\%\;and\;0.2\%$. In case of foreign squid pen and chitosan, the amounts of nitrogen and minerals were $12.1\%,\;0.8\%\;and\;7.8\%,\;0.2\%$ respectively. Intrinsic viscosity $([\eta]) $ of domestic and foreign squid pen chitosans were decreased with increasing pH from 3.4 to 5.4 which might be due to the reduced repulsion in inter- of intra- chitosan molecules. Intrinsic viscosity of the domestic and foreign squid pen chitosans were decreased with increasing NaCl concentration thus indicated that the domestic and foreign squid pen chitosans were polyelectrolyte molecules and stiffness of squid pen thitosans were 0.11 similar to that of k-carrageenan. Flow type of squid pen chitosan solutions were pseudoplastic fluids without yield stress by the viscosity measurement. But the squid pen chitosan solutions showed newtonian fluid up to $0.15\~0.24\%$ concentration for domestic and $0.21\~0.24\%$ concentration for foreign at $10\~50\%$. Concentration dependence of consistency index in infinitive dilute domain (Kc) were higher in the dilute domain than entangled domain. Activation energies (Ea) of the squid pen chitosans were 3.7, 6.3, 3.6, 4.0 and 4.1 Kcal/g moi for domestic and 3.2, 3.1, 3.4, 3.8 and 3.6 Kcal/g mol for foreign at 0.1, 0.15, 0.25, 0.35 and $0.5\%$, respectively.
