This study evaluated the impact of antimicrobial resistant bacteria produced by inland pollution sources on coastal areas, and investigates antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacteria isolated from marine filter feeders. A total of 107 shellfish (short-necked clams Ruditapes philippinarum, ark shells Scapharca broughtonii, and oysters Crassostrea gigas) were collected from the southern coast of Korea, from which 204 Escherichia coli strains were isolated. The antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of isolated strains were analyzed for 15 antimicrobial agents used in Korea for clinical or veterinary therapy. Antimicrobial resistance was present in 44.6% of E. coli isolates against at least one antimicrobial agent. The rate of antimicrobial resistance in the Narodo area was higher than isolates from the Gangjinman area and Kamak Bay. E. coli isolates had a higher rate of resistance against: tetracycline (29.9%), streptomycin (25.5%), and trimethoprim (14.2%). Of 204 isolates, 29 (14.2%) were resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents.

New Zealand suffers from regular floods, these being the most common source of insurance claims for damage from natural hazard events in the country. This paper describes the origin and distribution of the largest floods in New Zealand, and describes the systems used to monitor and predict floods. In New Zealand, broad-scale heavy rainfall (and flooding), is the result of warm moist air flowing out from the tropics into the mid-latitudes. There is no monsoon in New Zealand. The terrain has a substantial influence on the distribution of rainfall, with the largest annual totals occurring near the South Island's Southern Alps, the highest mountains in the country. The orographic effect here is extreme, with 3km of elevation gained over a 20km distance from the coast. Across New Zealand, short duration high intensity rainfall from thunderstorms also causes flooding in urban areas and small catchments. Forecasts of severe weather are provided by the New Zealand MetService, a Government owned company. MetService uses global weather models and a number of limited-area weather models to provide warnings and data streams of predicted rainfall to local Councils. Flood monitoring, prediction and warning are carried out by 16 local Councils. All Councils collect their own rainfall and river flow data, and a variety of prediction methods are utilized. These range from experienced staff making intuitive decisions based on previous effects of heavy rain, to hydrological models linked to outputs from MetService weather prediction models. No operational hydrological models are linked to weather radar in New Zealand. Councils provide warnings to Civil Defence Emergency Management, and also directly to farmers and other occupiers of flood prone areas. Warnings are distributed by email, text message and automated voice systems. A nation-wide hydrological model is also operated by NIWA, a Government-owned research institute. It is linked to a single high resolution weather model which runs on a super computer. The NIWA model does not provide public forecasts. The rivers with the greatest flood flows are shown, and these are ranked in terms of peak specific discharge. It can be seen that of the largest floods occur on the West Coast of the South Island, and the greatest flows per unit area are also found in this location.

Samples from two boreholes of coastal dune field at Jangho-ri coast, Gochang was studied. These were analyzed by grain size analysis geochemical analysis, and the application of OSL dating method to understand the development during the Holocene. The boreholes SB8 and SB9 were classified into three different sedimentary layers by their mean grain size and geochemical characteristics. The results revealed that the upper sand layer is equivalent to the present coastal dune layer, which developed since 1,200 years ago; the silt layer in the middle to the dune slack or lagoon sedimentation layer, which developed between 1,200 and 6,000 years ago; and the sand layer at the bottom to the paleo coastal dune that developed between 6,000 and 7,000 years ago. It was proposed that the forming material of current coastal dune was supplied from the sandy flat in coastal area, while the middle silt layer was supplied from the weathered soil of a bed rock by the comparison with material of surrounding area. In the case of coastal dune, concentrated layer of sands were identified which were buried about 300 and 1,200 years ago, which is identified as the little ice age. This study confirmed the development of Jangho-ri coastal dunes after Holocene Climate Optimum period, and it is likely to assist in the understanding of coastal dunes development.

Giant pacific octopus, Enteroctopus dofleini, is a large mollusk distributed in the East Sea of Korea. In this study, the catch status of giant pacific octopus by drift line fishery and the effect of sea temperature on fishing ground were investigated in Goseong-gun, Gangwon-do, which is the central coast of the East Sea. The average catch of giant pacific octopus in Gangwon-do was 1,570 tons over the past ten years, and it accounted for 21% in 2008 and 44% in 2021 compared to the total catch in the East Sea during the same period. Such data indicates that the catch in Gangwon-do has recently increased. In this study area, giant pacific octopus weighing 1.1-5.0 kg dominated accounting for 56% of the total individuals, and followed by those weighing 1 kg or less. However, the ratio of catch of giant pacific octopus over 5.1 kg tended to increase in 2021, which is thought to be related to the sea temperature that affected the fishing ground. The main depth of fishing ground was from 21 m to 50 m in this area and fishing grounds were widely distributed throughout the season except summer. Fishing ground was formed with the conditions of bottom sea temperature under 10℃ and was diminished by moving of giant pacific octopus to deeper depth with conditions of bottom sea temperature over 18℃.

Most seismic sea waves in the East Sea originate from earthquakes occurring near the Japanese west coast. While the waves propagate in the East Sea, they are deformed by refraction, diffraction and scattering. Though the Boussinesq equation is most applicable for such wave phenomena, it was not used in numerical modelling of seismic sea waves in the East Sea. To examine characteristics of seismic sea waves in the East Sea, numerical models based on the Boussinesq equation are established and used to simulate recent tsunamis. By considering Ursell parameter and Kajiura parameter, it is proved that Boussinesq equation is a proper equation for seismic sea waves in the East Sea. Two models based on the Boussinesq equation and linear wave equation are executed with the same initial conditions and grid size ($1min{\times}1min$), and the results are compared in various respects. The Boussinesq equation model produced better results than the linear model in respect to wave propagation and concentration of wave energy. It is also certified that the Boussinesq equation model can be used for operational purpose if it is optimized. Another Boussinesq equation model whose grid size is $40sec{\times}30sec$ is set up to simulate the 1983 and 1993 tsunamis. As the result of simulation, new propagation charts of 2 seismic sea waves focused on the Korean east coast are proposed. Even though the 1983 and 1993 tsunamis started at different areas, the propagation paths near the Korean east coast are similar and they can be distinguished into 4 paths. Among these, total energy and propagating time of the waves passing over North Korea Plateau(NKP) and South Korea Plateau(SKP) determine wave height at the Korean east coast. In case of the 1993 tsunami, the wave passing over NKP has more energy than the wave over SKP. In case of the 1983 tsunami, the huge energy of the wave passing over SKP brought about great maximum wave heights at Mukho and Imwon. The Boussinesq equation model established in this study is more useful for simulation of seismic sea waves near the Korean east coast than it is the Japanese coast. To improve understanding of seismic sea waves in shallow water, a coastal area model based on the Boussinesq equation is also required.

This study is to enhance the provincial leisure plans through various programs and infrastructure facilities and to establish a network of natural leisure areas in Gyeonggi-do. According to the result, first, in terms of analyzing the locations of natural leisure areas by types, the rest of urban parks is formed in the Capital area outside Seoul as centering around the central area. Moreover, with regard to the rest of forest and the rest of natural ecology learning, the area of the detention exceeds the total area of Gyeonggi-do. The rest of valleys and swamps showed a dotted pattern of the detention area while the rest of tideland and fishing village experience indicated a distribution of the detention area along the West Coast as an axis. Second, according to result of analyzing the accessibility of natural leisure areas by types, the rest of valleys and swamps showed the highest accessibility among the natural leisure areas : the rest of natural ecology learning had the medium level of accessibility; the rest of forest indicated the lowest accessibility. Therefore, it is necessary to create more leisure areas concerning the futures demands. In addition, they should be constructed in the places adjacent to the urban district area exhibiting higher usability and accessibility. In the places where there are many natural leisure area with higher utility, management plans should be deliberated as well. Based on the result of analyzing the rest of valleys and swamps and the rest of tideland and fishing village experience, it was found that the natural leisure area should improve the quality of water intensively and hydrophile property and create hydrophilic spaces. The development of natural leisure areas need to be carried out under the principle of environmental protection while considering historic sites and nearby rivers and lakes. Moreover, water leisure programs should be developed actively as well with further utilization of water resources in order to enhance the usability of natural leisure.

독도 연안 해저지형 변동 경향을 파악하고자 인간의 활동이 많고 파도 및 해류 등의 영향을 많이 받는 동도 선착장을 포함하는 동도와 서도 사이 남부 연안 약 500 m × 500 m 범위에 대하여 2018년에서 2021년까지 멀티빔을 이용한 정밀해저지형 자료 및 해저면 후방산란 영상자료를 획득하였으며 이를 기반으로 해저면 변동 모니터링 분석을 수행하였다. 연구지역의 수심 약 5 m 부터 남서쪽 외해 방향의 최대 수심 약 70 m 범위까지 수심대가 나타난다. 동도 및 서도와 인접한 수심 약 20 m이내 연안 해역의 불규칙이고 복잡한 수중 암반 지대와 수심 약 30 m ~ 40 m 범위에 형성된 일부 돌출 지형을 제외하면, 전체적으로 동-서 방향으로 비슷한 수심대가 나타나고 비교적 평탄하게 깊어지며 외해역으로 이어지는 특징을 보인다. 2020년 해저지형자료의 등수심선은 2018년과 2019년에 비해 전체적으로 남쪽으로 이동된 경향을 보이고 있다. 이것은 수심이 이전보다 얕아졌다는 것을 의미한다. 등수심 변동이 발생한 구간은 주로 퇴적층 해역이므로 퇴적물의 유입으로 인한 것으로 생각되는데, 2020년에 발생한 대형 태풍(마이삭, 하이선)들이 독도 연안에 영향을 준 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 태풍들로 인한 바람 및 파도의 영향으로 남쪽에서 북쪽으로 퇴적물이 유입되어 이동한 것으로 여겨진다. 동도와 서도 사이 수심이 얕은 연안에 발달한 테일러스(Talus)구역에서 2020년에는 2019년과 2018년의 지형과 비교하여 구간에 따라 상이하게 침식 또는 퇴적에 의해 해저지형이 달라졌는데 이는 독도 주변 연안 해역이 태풍의 직접적인 영향을 받으면서 해저면 환경의 변동이 구역에 따라 다르게 나타나는 것으로 유추된다. 전체적으로는 남풍이 강했던 태풍들의 영향으로 퇴적물 유입이 많아서 퇴적된 경향을 보인다. 2021년은 2020년에 비해 등수심선이 주로 북쪽으로 이동된 것으로 나타나는데, 이는 해당지역이 2020년보다 침식되었음을 의미한다. 2020년에는 연이은 태풍에 의해 퇴적물들이 주로 북쪽으로 이동하여 독도 연안에 퇴적되었고, 2021년에는 이 퇴적물들이 다시 남쪽으로 이동하면서 독도 연안이 침식된 것으로 추정된다. 독도는 겨울철 북풍의 영향이 강하기 때문에 주로 퇴적물이 남쪽으로 이동하지만 강한 태풍의 영향을 받는 경우 퇴적물을 북쪽으로 이동시키는 것으로 파악된다.

道垈川은 牙山灣으로 流入되는 小河川이다. Holocene 中期에 있어서 이 流域盆地의 堆積環境變化를 살펴보기 위하여 boring조사, 硅藻${\cdot}$花粉分析, carbon dating 등을 실시했다. 道垈川 流域의 Holocene 堆積層은 土炭層과 靑灰色 실트層이 互層을 이루고 있으며, 많은 硅藻와 花粉化石을 포함하고 있다. 硅藻와 花粉의 分析 결과에 의하면 靑灰色 실트층이 퇴적될 때는 相對的으로 海進의 경향이 있었고, 土炭層이 퇴적될 때는 相對的인 海面의 安定 내지 海退의 경향이 있었다. 後氷期 海岸線은 약 7,000년 BP 경에 현 도대천 하류부에 도달하였고, 그 후 6,000년 BP 까지 몇 차례 小海進과 海退를 거듯하였다. 약 7,000년 BP 경에 해면(평균고조위)은 약 3m에 이르렀고, 미상승과 하강을 거듭하면서 6,000년 BP 경에 약 5m 까지 上昇하였다. 西海岸에서는 海岸低濕地性 土炭地는 약 7,000년 BP 경에서 3,000년 BP 경까지 주로 형성되었고, 이들의 分布高度는 대부분 현재의 平均海面보다 2~6m 높은 위치에 분포하고 있다. 西海岸 土炭地는 대개 高潮位 海面과 관련된 內灣 鹽生濕地性 土炭地이므로, 潮差가 작은 東海岸의 堤間濕地(swale)에서 형성된 土炭地에 비하여 形成時期가 앞서고 分布高度가 높다.
