Arc thermal spray coating using Al-3%Mg thermal spray wire was carried out to prevent steel from corrosion damage under the marine environment. Post-sealing was applied to Al-3%Mg spray coating treatment using organic/inorganic composite ceramics in order to improve the corrosion resistance of the as-sprayed coating. The results of various electrochemical experiments with sealing treatment indicated that the improvement in corrosion resistance was observed due to low current density in all applied potential range during anodic and cathodic polarization experiments. Futhermore, the natural potential measurement exhibited severe potential fluctuation due to influence of micro-crack presence on the surface of sealed thermal spray coating layer. In addition, the sealed layer was easily eliminated during anodic polarization. Nevertheless, Al-3%Mg spray coating layer improved corrosion resistance by sealing treatment because the sealed coating efficiency was determined to be 92.11%, indicating the exterior environment barrier effect which is based on the Tafel analysis.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact on the fishery resources and marine ecosystems by derelict fishing gears as part of the R & E (Research and Education) program that supervised by the busan metropolitan city office of education. In this study, we verified the ghost fishing effects caused by derelict fishing gears through the process which fish were caught to be attracted to bait for gillnet and trap in tank. In results, the dead fish to be gilled in gillnet and to enter in pot have been shown to attract other fish to the bait role. The result showed that the ghost fishing was caused by abandoned, lost or discarded fishing gears continuously. In particular, as a result of pot experiment, if the lost pot has a escape device, the entered fish could escape from the pot and the fisheries resources could protect from derelict fishing gears. In addition, the high school students are capable of raising the problem solving skills through carrying out the research project and expect to contribute to raising awareness about the protection of the marine environment.

IMO adopt the revision of SOLAS convention on requirement systems for ECDIS and considered an ECDIS as the major system for E-Navigation strategy on marine transportation safety and marine environment protection. ENC(Electronic Navigational Chart) as base map of ECDIS is considered as a principal information infrastructure that is essential for navigation tasks. Though ECDIS has many advantages, it's almost impossible for the mariner to recognize the displayed information because of intense display of objects so called the clutter. In this paper, the current status and international standards on SCAMIN((Minimum Scale) attribute have been investigated. Also improvement of SCAMIN attribute of ENCs and grouping method for the sounding values was proposed.

As a result of very limited access due to the military confrontation between South and North Koreas for the last five decades, ecosystems in the transboundary coastal area in the western part of Korean Peninsula have been protected from intensive developments in both Koreas. In the core of the recent two military collisions lies the fishery resources represented as blue crabs as well as the politico-military aspect. Increasing development pressures from both sides as reflected in the South Korea supporting the construction of an industrial complex in Kaesung, North Korea, is the main factor which threatens the sustainable resource base in this region. This research is aimed to develop a cooperative management system for the well-preserved transboundary coastal area between South Korea and North Korea. The Pressure-State-Response (PSR) framework of OECD was used to assess environmental conditions, socioeconomic pressures on the environment of the region, and policy responses of both Koreas to those pressures. Protection of ecosystems, peace settlement, and prosperity of the region and the entire peninsula were proposed as the management goals of the cooperative management system. The designation of the area as a Co-managed Marine Protected Area System (COMPAS) through close cooperation among South Korea, North Korea, and international entities was suggested as a way to achieve those goals. Revision of legal and institutional mechanisms, strengthening knowledge base for optimal COMPAS management, integration of the marine protected area and DMZ (demilitarized zone) ecosystem, enhancing stakeholder participation, building international partnership, and securing financial resources were presented as six management strategies.

This study collected data of college students' volunteering for maritime and fisheries and found that only few subjects participated in it. They took part in control for release of oil, services for sea village and coastal cleansing. Most were satisfied with their volunteering referring contributing to environment protection, self-fulfillment, social interaction, gaining special experiences and assimilation with nature. The subjects were not satisfied with lack of systematic and effective services, monolithic activities, insufficient publicity, deficient rewards and a shortage of self-capacity. Based upon the research findings, implications for college students' volunteering policies were suggested to promote volunteering for maritime and fisheries.

In terms of environmental friendly land use and objective environmental assessment, legislative assessment items of Environmental Conservation Value Assessment Map (ECVAM) consists of designated areas related to conservation and protection, and areas that are planned to be designated in the future. However, the gap with the reality due to omission of several protection areas and land use regulations, and assessment grades according to 3 division land use map of forest, agricultural land, and urbanized area, results in low application and utilization of ECVAM. Therefore in this study, the legislative assessment of the ECVAM was performed with new assessment items and its new ratings, to suggest an improvement in legislative assessment items of the ECVAM. As a result, legally protected areas of inhabited islands under absolute conservation, special wildlife protection districts, protected marine areas, environmental preservation sea areas, scenic spots, forest protection zone, traditional temple preservation zone, and 45 zone or district related to regulation of land use were additionally designated as new legislative assessment items. New grade ratings were given to each additional assessment items in consideration of the restrictions on acts. As a result of the legislative assessment based on the new assessment items and new grades, the 1st grade area increased by 3.47%, and the 2nd grade area increased by 19.35%. The 3rd grade area decreased by 8.54%, the 4th grade area increased by 2.95%, and 5th grade increased by 2.91%. In addition, the out-of-grade area decreased by 20.14%, considered to be a realistic assessment based on land use. With the improved legislative assessment, it is possible to provide a more accurate environmental assessment map. Increase usage of ECVAM is expected in providing regulations of land use and base data for integrated land management of land environmental planning.

Korean fisheries industry is surrounding by domestic and international difficulties due to the effectuation of the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and declaration by many coastal states of 200-mile Exclusive Economic Zone and acceleration of ocean pollution in global recognition increasing of the importance of the ocean Resource enhancement policy in Korea fisheries industry is very important strategy fer the fostering of the fisheries resource and proper conservation and management of the coastal and off-shore living marine. Among resource enhancement policy, artificial reefs project has been the most effective strategy. The objectives of this paper are to find the economic effects of artificial reefs. The sampling artificial reefs is constructed at Suiido with 6~7m height. In order to analyze the fishing effect of artificial reefs, a few research have been conducted since 1975. For these analysis focuses on the side of scientific effect of artificial reefs, we analyzed on the side of economic effect. The results of the economic effects of artificial reefs are as follows ; First, the fishing effect analysis by using the NPV method in artificial reefs of Suiido ground prove to be economic feasibility. Second, the major socio-economic effect from artificial reefs include the increasing of recreation fishing, maintenance of fishing community, protection illegal fishing, conservation of coastal environment, and enlargement of advanced fisheries supply. Based on the above results, we conclude that artificial reefs project not only contributes to the welfare of fishermen by increasing of economic income, but enlarges to socio-economic gains by protection of illegal fishing and conservation coastal environment and so on.

The oceans could absorb almost all the anthropogenic carbon dioxide the mankind has been producing eventually, but in the nature the air-sea $CO_2$ exchange occurs very slowly and to lower the atmospheric $CO_2$ concentration substantially $CO_2$ must be injected to the interior of the ocean directly. If we inject $CO_2$ collected at the major $CO_2$ sources into the international waters in the Philippine Sea or east of Japan, we could store the $CO_2$ in the oceans effectively for a few hundred years. When $CO_2$ is dissolved into the water, PH drops. The creatures adapted to the deep oceans where environment is very stable could be affected by even a small change in pH significantly. If, therefore, we are to inject $CO_2$ into the oceans, we must assess the effect of $CO_2$ injection in the marine ecosystem beforehand. Only when the damage to the marine ecosystem is smaller than the benefit from the $CO_2$ injection, $CO_2$ injection is effective.
