어류의 시각적 및 화학적 정보를 토대로 포식자를 인지하는 능력은 개체가 자연에서 생활하는 동안 학습을 통해서 확보된다. 하지만 인공증식된 멸종위기종들의 경우 자연적응력 부족으로 인한 복원효율성 저하가 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 복원을 위해 인공증식된 멸종위기종 여울마자의 자연적응력 증진을 위해 포식자 인지 능력 증진을 수행하였다. 연구결과 포식자 인지 훈련 기간에 따라 자극원에 대한 반응성이 달라짐을 확인할 수 있었으며, 인공증식된 여울마자는 동종의 알람신호를 통해 위험을 인지하는 능력이 떨어져 있었으며, 이는 포식 위험원 노출을 통한 훈련으로 개선이 가능하였고, 포식자에 노출되었을 때 포식자와 알람신호에 동시에 노출 되었을 경우 훈련 기간이 길어짐에 따라 자극에 대한 반응성이 줄어드는 것을 확인하였다. 알람신호에 대한 반응은 시간이 지날수록 커지는 경향을, 포식자에 대한 반응은 훈련 48시간 후 가장 높은 반응을 보이고 72시간 후 반응성이 떨어지는 경향을, 알람신호와 포식자 동시 노출에 대한 반응은 훈련 이전 가장 높은 반응을 보인 뒤 반응성이 낮아진 채로 유지되는 경향을 보였다. 따라서 방류 전 인공증식 개체의 동종의 알람신호(화학적 자극)에 대한 반응성을 높이기 위한 프로그램이 필요하며, 포식자(시각적 자극)에 대한 반응성도 높게 나타난 48시간가량의 포식 위험원 노출이 적합하다고 판단된다. 본 실험을 통해 인공증식 여울마자의 동족 알람신호 자극에 대한 반응성 부족이 확인되었으며 멸종위기종 방류전 자연성 증진 프로그램의 운용의 필요성이 확인되었다.

Black-tailed gulls (Larus crassirostris) produce alarm calls apparently related to their anti-predator behaviors, but the hypothesis that the calls are actually used as functionally referential alarm signals has not yet been tested. In this study, we performed a series of experiments using visual (a stuffed goshawk: Accipiter gentilis) and acoustic (alarm calls and a control vocalization) stimuli at 15 sites in Sinjindo-ri and Dowhang-ri, Taean-gun, Chungnam province to examine anti-predator responses of the gulls to alarm calls in playback trials. We found that the gulls' visual recognition of a perched hawk model in the absence of alarm vocalizations was weak or absent because the model was noticed in only two out of 16 trials. The gulls' responses to playbacks of the alarm call only and the alarm call with a visual stimulus differed from responses to the control vocalization in latency to approach, time mobbing, and the percentage of gulls responding, while the responses to alarm call only differed from alarm call with a visual stimulus in latency to first fly, latency to call, and time mobbing. The results of this study suggest that alarm calls of black-tailed gulls are used to elicit appropriate anti-predator behaviors that are intensified when a predator is detected visually.

The stink bug, Eocanthecona furcellata (Wolff.) is a natural and potential biocontrol agent of Spilarctia obliqua (Walk.). The present investigation reveals the biology, predatory efficiency and reproductive parameters of the predator which feeds on S. obliqua caterpillars in mulberry plantation. In order to find out the role of prey sine on the biology of the predators the predatory insects were separately fed with small and large caterpillars of S. obliqua. The incubation period of the eggs of E. furcellata was 8.37${\pm}$0.44 days, while the nymphal duration varied as per the prey sine. The predator when supplied with small larvae of prey, consumed 61.1 larvae and completed nymphal stage in 19.9 days; while those fed with larger prey, consumed 36.1 larvae and completed their nymphal stage in 21.55 days. The prey size also influences the reproductive parameters of the predator, The adult female predator is more voracious feeder than the adult male and consumed 41.9${\pm}$0.64 small larvae and 42.2${\pm}$0.87 large larvae during their life span. The longevity of male and female was observed as 20.7 and 29.4 days respectively. Visualization of the predator as well as the movement of the prey increases the predatory efficiency. Scanning electron microscopic studies on the feeding part explain its support in effective predation. Field observations indicated a drastic fall in the incidence of the mulberry pest, S. obliqua with the increased population E. furcellata in mulberry plantation.

본 연구의 목적은 중고도-장기체공 무인기의 성능을 역설계를 통해 분석하는 것이며, 역설계를 위한 모델로 RQ-1 Predator를 선정하였다. CATIA 프로그램을 사용하여 RQ-1 Predator의 외형에 대한 형상과 중량 분포를 생성하였다. RQ-1 Predator의 공력특성은 주로 와류격자법과 경험식을 조합하여 수행하였으며, 추진 성능은 Howe의 경험식을 통해 수행되었다. 상승률, 실용상승한도, 항속 거리, 그리고 체공 시간에 대한 역설계를 수행하였으며, 역설계 결과가 참고문헌과 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of the mathematical model of two non-interacting preys in presence of their common natural enemy (predator) based on the non-autonomous differential equations. We establish sufficient conditions for the permanence, extinction and global stability in the general non-autonomous case. In the periodic case, by means of the continuation theorem in coincidence degree theory, we establish a set of sufficient conditions for the existence of a positive periodic solutions with strictly positive components. Also, we give some sufficient conditions for the global asymptotic stability of the positive periodic solution.

In the present paper we consider a differential-algebraic prey-predator model with stage structure for prey and harvesting of predator species. Stability and instability of the equilibrium points are discussed and it is observed that the model exhibits a singular induced bifurcation when the economic profit is zero. It indicates that the zero economic profit brings impulse, i.e. rapid expansion of the population and the system collapses. For the purpose of stabilizing the system around the positive equilibrium, a state feedback controller is designed. Finally, numerical simulations are given to show the consistency with theoretical analysis.

In this paper, we study a delayed predator-prey system with Holling type IV functional response incorporating the effect of habitat complexity. The results show that there exist stability switches and Hopf bifurcation occurs while the delay crosses a set of critical values. The explicit formulas which determine the direction and stability of Hopf bifurcation are obtained by the normal form theory and the center manifold theorem.

This paper treats the conditions for the existence and stability properties of stationary solutions of a predator-prey interaction with self and cross-diffusion. We show that at a certain critical value a diffusion driven instability occurs, i.e. the stationary solution stays stable with respect to the kinetic system (the system without diffusion) but becomes unstable with respect to the system with diffusion and that Turing instability takes place. We note that the cross-diffusion increase or decrease a Turing space (the space which the emergence of spatial patterns is holding) compared to the Turing space with self-diffusion, i.e. the cross-diffusion response is an important factor that should not be ignored when pattern emerges.

We consider a delayed predator prey model. The local stability and Hopf bifurcation results are stated taking the time delay as a control parameter. We apply multiple scale analysis to analyze the effects of additive white noises near the Hopf bifurcation point at the positive interior equilibrium state. The governing equations for the amplitude of oscillations on a slow time scale are derived. We identify the process of amplitude of oscillations and derive its transient properties. We show that oscillations, which would decay in the deterministic system whenever time delay lies below its critical value, persists for long time under the validity of multiple scale analysis.

In this paper, we consider a discrete ratio-dependent predator-prey system with harvesting effect. In order to investigate dynamical behaviors of this system, first we find out all fixed points of the system and then classify their stabilities by using their Jacobian matrices and local stability method. Next, we display some numerical examples to substantiate theoretical results and finally, we show numerically, by means of a bifurcation diagram, that various dynamical behaviors including cycles, periodic doubling bifurcation and chaotic bands can be existed.
