낙동강 하류 물금지역의 장기적인 부영양화 경향을 평가하기 위해 1995년부터 2012년까지 수질인자들 및 식물 플랑크톤 생체량(클로로필-a 농도)들의 변화경향을 조사하였다. 18년간의 장기적인 연평균 수질인자들 농도 및 식물 플랑크톤 생체량 변화에서 연평균 수질인자들 농도 및 식물 플랑크톤 생체량은 점차 감소하는 추세였다. 연중 식물 플랑크톤의 농도변화에서는 매년 12월부터 3월까지 높은 식물 플랑크톤의 농도를 나타내었다. Aizaki의 부영양화 지수(Trophic State Index, TSI) 평가에서 낙동강 하류 물금지역의 경우 1995년부터 2012년까지 매년 그리고 연중 부영양화 상태인 것으로 나타났다. 각각의 수질인자들과 식물 플랑크톤 생체량과의 단순 상관관계 분석에서 BOD와 식물 플랑크톤 생체량과의 상관성($r^2$ = 0.82)이 가장 높게 나타났다.

During the 1st Korea-Russia Arctic Expedition from 3 to 26 August, 2000 phytoplankton biomass and nutrient concentration were measured in the Barents and Kara Seas. Total of 57 surface samples were collected f3r the phytoplankton related measurements. Chlorophyll a (chi a) concentraitons were measured to investigate the relations between physico-chemical factors and phytoplankton biomass distribution. Chl a values ranged from 0.14 to $2.34mg\;m^{-3}$ (mean of $0.65{\pm}0.42mg\;m^{-3}$) over the surface stations. The elevated values of the chi a concentrations $(1.49{\sim}2.34mg\;m^{-3})$ were found in the southeastern Barents Sea near the Pechora River. Nanoplanktonic $(<20{\mu}m)$ phytoflagellates were the important contributors for the increase of the chi a. The nano-sized phytoflagellates accounted for more than 80% of the total chi a biomass in the study area. Mean chi a concentration in the Barents Sea $(0.72{\pm}0.57 mg\;m^{-3})$ was higher than in the Kan Sea $(0.52{\pm}0.45mg\;m^{-3})$, but there was no big difference between two areas. Surface temperatures and salinities ranged from 4.1 to $11.7^{\circ}C$ (mean of $8.8{\pm}1.9^{\circ}C$) and from 23.8 to 32.5psu (mean of $30.3{\pm}1.9^{\circ}C$ psu), respectively. The physical factors were not highly correlated with phytoplankton distribution. It is speculated that the insignificant correlation between phytoplankton biomass and physical factor was due to the same current which introduced similar water mass with higher water temperature and lower salinity into the study area. The mean values of major nutrients such as ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, and silicate were $0.42{\pm}0.31{\mu}M,\;0.10{\pm}0.03{\mu}M,\;1.44{\pm}1.03{\mu}M,\;0.35{\pm}0.12{\mu}M,\;10.99{\pm}3.45{\pm}M$, respectively. The relations between phytoplankton biomass and nutrient concentration were not close, indicating that the surface nutrient concentrations during the study seem to be controlled by other physical factors such as input of fresh water (i.e. dilution effects).

본 연구는 선박평형수처리시스템(BWMS) 형식승인을 위한 국제해사기구(IMO)와 미국해양경찰(USCG)의 시험방법 중 차이가 큰 식물플랑크톤의 전처리 방법을 비교하기 위해 배양종, 자연종, 그리고 BWMS의 육상시험에서 채취한 식물플랑크톤 샘플을 이용해 농축과 비농축에 대한 비교시험을 수행했다. 배양종과 자연종의 비교 시험은 농축하는 과정에서 네트 손실 및 손상이 있는 것으로 확인되었으며, 이는 대상종의 생리·형태적 특성에 따라 차이가 있음을 확인했다. BWMS 육상시험에서 생물 농도가 높은 대조수의 경우 비농축한 시료 개체수가 농축한 시료보다 2배 정도 높은 값을 보였고, 생물 개체수가 낮은 처리수는 두 방법 간의 뚜렷한 차이가 없었다. 이러한 결과는 미국형식승인 방법으로 육상시험을 수행하면 시험수 조건이 더 가혹하다는 것을 의미한다. 결과적으로 식물플랑크톤 샘플링 과정에서 농축과 비농축의 차이가 있음에도 불구하고, 농축 방법이 BWMS 성능을 평가하는 방법으로 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 하지만 처리수 내에서 살아있는 종이 샘플링의 농축 과정에서 네트 손실 및 손상이 있을 수 있기 때문에 대상종에 대한 평가방법을 개발할 필요성이 있다.

This study was carried out to determine marine environments and phytoplankton community in Deukryang Bay during the period of summer in 1987-2010. Water temperature, salinity, pH and dissolved oxygen were shown in much yearly fluctuations. In August, water temperatures in surface and on bottom were the highest, compared with average surface (24.54$^{\circ}C$) and bottom (22.90$^{\circ}C$) water temperature for 18 years in Deukryang Bay. The main reason is assumed to longer duration of sunshine during the period of August. Although the amount of the rainfall in August was the highest, significant impact of marine environment did not show. Most of dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphate in Deukryang were lower concentration during summer and N:P ratio also showed below 18 in Redfield. In particular, extreme increasing of N:P ratio in August was occurred by intensive precipitation. Distribution of phytoplankton community was a consistent occurrence for 18 years. The genus of Chaetoceros, Cosinodisucs and Skeletonema were regarded as the represent diatom, whereas the highest occurrence of genus among dinofagellates was Ceratium. It is thought that the relationship between phytoplankton and nutrient has a strong positive signal, although nutrients persist a little concentration and much fluctuations in marine environments were observed. High availability in phytoplankton is contributed to consistently provide the food organism of shellfish. Consequently, recent decreasing production of shellfish and seed are probably associated with higher temperature during the period of summer. However, higher temperature is also occurred ago and after 2000. On the basis of geography, Deukryang Bay had a small mouth and long channel, which is attributed to decreasing genetic diversity. It is assumed that higher temperature and lower genetic diversity have a extreme impact of larvae and shellfish for reproduction in Deukryang. It is necessary to persistently monitor based on water quality and phytoplankton community.

Loess, PAC, MACF and plants were applied to the control of the phytoplankton bloom in laboratory and in field, In field experiment using oil fence, 5ppm concentration of coagulant(PAC) was observed to be effective in controlling the cyanobacterial bloom, resulting in 90% removal of cyanobacteria and phytoplankton from the water column, hi case of Synedra sp., however, only 50% of biomass decreased with the same PAC concentration. MACF(micro-air bubble coagulation and floating), a kind of physicochemical method, was applied to the column of the Kyongan stream and resulted in over 80% chlorophyll a and 73.5% TP removal, Chlorophyll a and total phosphorus were effectively removed from water body when 2.0 g/L of loess with the particle radius of 125 ${\mu}m$ was inputted. In case of experiments involving plants, big cone pine, gingko, and pine needle were observed to be effective in restraining phytoplankton bloom at 0.5g/200ml level. During a field test done at Kyungan stream, where Microcystis heavily occurred, Pine needle and big cone pine were observed to be effective on suppressing algal growth.

It is very important to interprete and simulate the variation of phytoplankton maximum region for the prediction and control of red tide. This study was composed of two parts first the hydrodynamic simulation such as residual current and salinity diffusion and second the ecological simulation such as phytoplankton distribution according to freshwater discharge and pollutant loads. Without the Nakdong river discharge residual current was stagnated in inner side of this estuary and surface distribution of salinity was over 25psu. On the contrary with summer mean discharge freshwater stretched very far outward and some waters flowed into Chinhae Bay through the Kadok channel and low salinity extended over coastal sea and salinity front occurred. From the result of contributed physical process to phytioplankton biomass the accumulation was occurred at the west part of this estuary and the Kadok channel with the Nakdong river discharge. When more increased input discharge the accumulation band was transported to outer side of this estuary. The frequently outbreak of red tide in this area is caused by accumulation of physical processes. The phytoplankton maximum region located inner side of this estuary without the Nakdong river discharge and with mean discharge of winter but it was moved to outer side when mean discharge of the Nakdong river was increased. The variation of input concentration from the land loads was not largely influenced on phytoplankton biomass and location of maximum region. When discharge was increased phytoplankton maximum region was transferred to inner side of the Kadok channel. ON the other hand when discharge was decreased phytoplankton maximum region was transferred to inner side of this estuary and chlorophyll a contents increased to over 20$\mu\textrm{g}$/L Therefore if any other conditions are favorable for growth of phytoplankton. decreas of discharge causes to increase of possibility of red tide outbreak.

Phytoplankton community in the coastal waters off the northeastern Korean Peninsula were characterized from May 2002 to August 2003. Taxonomic composition, abundance and biomass were determined at two water depths at 10 sample sites. A total of 153 phytoplankton species including 121 diatoms, 28 dinoflagellates, 7 green algae and 7 other species were identified. The mean abundance of phytoplankton varied from 15 to 430 cells mL–1 in the surface layer and from 11 to 545 cells mL–1 in the bottom layer, respectively. Phytoplankton was more abundant in coastal stations relative to those in more open ocean. The most dominant species were marine diatoms such as Thalassionema nitzschioides, Licmorphora abbreviata, Chaetoceros affinis and Chaetoceros socialis. In addition, a few limnotic diatoms including Fragilaria capucina v. rumpens, the green alga Scenedesmus dimorphus, some marine dinoflagellates and Cryptomonas sp. appeared as dominant species. Mean concentration of total chlorophyll-a varied from 0.22 to 7.87 μg chl-a L–1 and from 0.45 to 6.79 μg chl-a L–1 in the surface and bottom layers, respectively. The contribution of phytoplankton each size-fractionated varied highly with season. The contribution of microphytoplankton to total biomass of phytoplankton in the surface and bottom layer was high in February and August 2003, and that of nano-phytoplankton was high in May 2002 in both surface and bottom layers.

A study on the dynamics of phytoplankton community and the physico-chemical environmental factors was performed biweekly from April 1998 to March 1999 in Youngchun Dam. A total 72 phytoplankton taxa was identified and dominant taxa were blue-green algae and diatoms. The highest value of phytoplankton standing crop (24,826cells·ml$^{-1}$) was observed in September 7, 1998, the blooming period of blue-green algae Phormidium sp., while the lowest (318cells·ml$^{-1}$) was measured in June 18, 1999. The phytoplankton communities were dominated by blue-green algae of Anabaena planktonica, Microcystis aeruginosa and Phormidium sp. during the summer and autumn periods and were dominated by diatoms of Synedra acus and Aulacoseira spp. during the spring and winter periods. Secchi disc transparency, chlorophyll-a, total nitrogen, total phosphorus and silicate concentration were varied in the ranges of 0.4-2.5 m, 2.4-32.2mg·m$^{-1}$, 0.845-2.352mg·l$^{-1}$, 0.005-0.093mg·l$^{-1}$, 0.2-15.7mg·l$^{-1}$, respectively. The trophic status of Youngchun Dam were estimated eutrophic according to Lake Trophic States Index (LTSI).

Acartia hongi is the most dominant and widespread planktonic copepod in Gyeonggi Bay, Yellow sea. Ingestion rates and selectivity of A. hongi on phytoplankton and planktonic ciliates were determined in the laboratory. Ingestion rates of A. hongi on planktonic ciliates and phytoplankton increased in proportion to prey concentration increase. When A. hongi was fed with various mixture combinations of planktonic ciliates and phytoplankton, their ingestion rate on ciliates tended to increase as the percentage of ciliates in prey biomass increased. Clearance rate of A. hongi on planktonic ciliates was higher than for phytoplankton in all experiments without regard to relative percent of ciliate biomass. This trend suggests that A. hongi was preferentially preying on planktonic ciliates. Under mixed prey availability, it is likely that selective feeding and higher clearance rate of planktonic ciliates by A. hongi is related to the higher nutritional value of ciliates compared to phytoplankton. Therefore, our results suggest that selective ciliate feeding by A. hongi will positively benefit its growth and abundance, and as a result negatively impact the population dynamics of planktonic ciliates in Gyeonggi Bay.
