As a result of the faunistic survey of the free-living marine nematodes from coastal algal beds and sublittoral sands in South Korea, we report a meiobenthic species, Desmoscolex cosmopolites Timm, 1970, for the first time from the western Pacific as well as Korean waters. Among 17-ring Desmoscolex species, D. cosmopolites is represented by the following combination of characters: absence of subventral setae on 10th and 14th main rings and the presence of subdorsal setae with large angular lance-shaped tip. A detailed morphological redescription is provided using a scanning electron microscope and a differential interference contrast microscope. Character comparison between D. cosmopolites and its allied congeneric species is also analysed.

During a field survey of Korean marine ciliates, we collected three ciliate species from the eastern coastal waters of the Yellow Sea. Based on the observation of living and protargol and wet silver nitrate stained cells, the ciliates, belonging to the classes Spirotrichea and Oligohymenophorea, were identified as Cardiostomatella vermiformis (Kahl, 1928) Corliss, 1960, Parallelostrombidium paraellipticum Song et al., 2018, and Pleuronema paucisaetosum Pan et al., 2015. Both Parallelostrombidium paraellipticum and Pleuronema paucisaetosum were described only from their type localities, i.e., brackish water, suggesting that they tolerate a broad range of salinity, while Cardiostomatella is marine ciliate and seems to be cosmopolitan. These three species were reported for the first time in Korea. Brief descriptions, remarks to justify their identity and to compare the present isolates with similar taxa, and photomicrographs were provided for the three species.

Cochlodinium polykrikoides has occurs regularly during the summer in the South Sea of Korea. To investigate photosynthetic pigments concerned with phytoplankton community structure as bloom of Cochlodinium polykrikoides, the experiment was sampled at 20 stations three times between July and September 2002 in the Southern Sea of Korea. The distribution of peridinin, the biomarker of dinoflagellate, was higher at the blooming time than it was before and it disappeared after bloom. The correlative coefficients between Chl. a and peridinin at the blooming time and out of bloom were 0.9253 and 0.1613, respectively. This result indicated that the bloom was caused by dinoflagellate. The correlative coefficients between Chl. a and fucoxanthin were 0.3282 and 0.9759, respectively, and the correlative coefficients showed the succession from dinoflagellate to diatom. This result means that the bloom of Cochlodinium polykrikoides can be detected by Chl. a information from satellite remote sensing. Therefore, if the algorithm to detect peridinin in addition to Chl. a were to be developed, dinoflagellate red tide could be monitored more effectively.

지금까지 밝혀진 한국 해산 히드라충류는 17과 55속 120종이다. 이 가운데 Abietinaria filicula (ellis and Solander, 1786)는 한국 미기록종으로 밝혀졌고 Sertularella miurensis Stechow, 1921는 96개 채집지 가운데 33개 지점에서 채집되어 한국해역의 히드라충류 가운데 우점종으로 나타났다. 한국 해역은 동해, 남해, 황해 그리고 제주도의 4개 해역으로 나뉜다. 각 해역에서 채집된 종수는 동해 43종, 남해 73종, 황해 52종 그리고 제주도 83종으로 나타났다. 따라서 제주도 해역은 한국 해산 히드라충류의 가장 높은 다양활르 나타낸다고 할 수 있다. 각 해역간의 군집계수는 동해-황해가 0.444, 동해-남해가 0.553, 동해-제주도가 0.519, 황해-남해가 0.682, 황해-제주도가 0.533 그리고 남해-제주도가 0.642이다. 그러므로 히드라충류의 분포에 따른 두 해역 사이의 연관은 황해-남해가 가장 높고 동해-황해가 가장 낮다.

1. 일반적으로 제주도 연안역에서의 영양염류 농도는 성분에 따라 차이가 있으나 표층보다 50 m이심에서의 농도가 $0.5\sim3$배 정도 높다. 2. 제주도 남동쪽 해역의 수온, 염분과 규산염, 질산염, 인산염, 용존산소의 농도 분포가 단조롭고 비교적 각 성분의 량도 적다. 3. 제주도 북쪽 해역은 한국남안연 안수의 영향을 받아 각 성분의 농도 분포가 복잡하고 그 변동 범위도 크다. 또 영양염류도 이 해역이 남동쪽 해역보다 풍부하다. 4. 제주도 남서쪽 해역은 황해저층냉수의 영향을 받아 영양염이 풍부하나 황해난류와 만나는 호경역이므로 그 분포상은 매우 복잡하다.

Acoustic technologies are commonly used to estimate biomass and distribution of fisheries resources in coastal areas and the open ocean. The pelagic species of Engraulis japonica, Scomber japonicus and Sardinops melanosticta spawn migrate to the southern part of the Sea of Korea and capture of these three species comprise 50% of the total abundance in Korean waters. Since 1970, anchovy landings have increased to 0.2 million tons in 1990, 0.27 million tons in 2001, and 0.25 million tons in 2003. Acoustic surveys were conducted on 24-26, May and 20-21, June 2005 around the Tongyeong, Geojae, and Namhae anchovy fishing ground using a dual beam echo sounder (DT-5000, 200 kHz Biosonics). Using this approach, information was obtained on the distribution (depth and position) of zooplankton, and adult and juvenile anchovy. We calculated and compared anchovy biomass using simple summation and geostatistic methods to assess the advantages and constraints of the two techniques.

The relationship between the distribution of sea surface temperature(SST) and dinoflagellate(Cochlodinium polykrikoides) bloom areas were studied. The SST data were derived from the infrared channels of AVHRR(Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer) sensor on NOAA(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) 12 and 14 satellites during 1995-1998. The initial water temperature at C. polykrikoides bloom was about 21${\circ}C$ at the coastal areas of the South Sea and along the shore of the East Sea of Korea during the summer season of 1995. The northern limit of red tides was coincident with that of 21${\circ}C$ isothermal line in the East Sea. The red tides that initially bloomed at the coast of Pohang on September 21, 1995 moved to the coast of Uljin on September 26, 1995. The skipped appearance of the red tides in the areas between Pohang and Uljin was due to the East Korean Warm Current, which was moving offshore from Pohang to approach to Uljin. The cold water which was formed by tidal front in the western coast of the South Sea and by upwelling water from deep layer in the southeastern coast of the Korean peninsula played a role in blocking the spreading of red tides during summer season in 1997 and 1998. In conclusion, the distribution of red tides appeared to be dependent on the initial water temperature at red tides bloom. The SST at the red tides varied from 21${\circ}C$ to 25${\circ}C$; 21${\circ}C$, 23${\circ}C$, 24 and 24-25${\circ}C$ in 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively.

2002년 10월부터 2003년 4월까지 우리나라 동ㆍ서 남해의 96개 정점을 대상으로 착편모조를 채집한 결과 총 67개 정점에서 착편모조가 채집되었다. 서해안은 조수간만의 차가 심해서 썰물인 때에는 뻘 군데군데에 만들어진 물웅덩이에서 채수를 하기도 하였다. 그리고 동해안을 따라 만들어진 석호에서도 채수를 하였으며, 일정 염분이 검출된 석호에서는 착편모조의 출현을 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 이번 연구에서 Prymnesium sp. cf. parvum, Chrysochromulina spp 및 Phaeocystis globosa의 3속의 착편모조가 우리나라 연안 해역에 서식하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study introduces the navigational environment database(DB) compiling water depth, sediment type and marine managed areas (MMAs) in coastal waters of South Korea. The water depth and sediment data were constructed by combining their sparse points of electronic navigation chart and survey data with high spatial resolution using the inverse distance weighting and natural neighbor interpolation method included in ArcGIS. The MMAs were integrated based on all shapefiles provided by several government agencies using ArcGIS because the areas should be used in an emergency case of ship. To test the validity of the constructed DB, we conducted a test application for grounding and anchoring zones using a ship accident case. The result revealed each area of possible grounding candidates and anchorages is calculated and displayed properly, excluding obstacle places.
