The distribution of microzooplankton and hydrographic variables were measured in the Virginia portion of Chesapeake Bay and its major rivers. Samples were collected at 14 locations at monthly interval from September 1993 through December 1995. Ciliates were numerically dominated (>90%) and copepod nauplii comprised highest proportion of the total microzooplankton biomass (>77%). Copepod nauplii and ciliates were the most abundant at oligohaline water and rotifers at freshwater. Total microzooplankton density and biomass were usually higher at oligohaline stations than fresh water and polyhaline stations. Despite high nutrient concentration and phytoplankton density at eutrophic water, micro- and mesozooplankton biomass were low. Mesozooplankton were relatively abundant at polyhaline stations. The comparison between annual mean biomass of ciliates (12.7 ${\mu$}gC/1) and that of autotrophic picoplankton (13.5 {$\mu$}gC/1) revealed that ciliates were a major consumer of picoplankton production. The secondary production by ciliates was 12.7 ${\mu}$gC/1/day, representing 5% of the annual mean primary production in Chesapeake Bay, Total microzooplankton comprised 84% of the total zooplankton carbon content, representing five times higher than mesozooplankton biomass.

Lipids were extracted from marine rotifer, Brachionus rotundiformis in order to examine the functionality of lipid enzymatic modification. The fatty acids, palmitic, linoleic, oleic and stearic acids were the dominant forms accounting for approximately 35.8%, 21.5%, 15.9% and 7.7% of the total lipid content, respectively. Lipid fractions were categorized as neutral lipids (38.5%), glycolipids (45.9%) and phospholipids (17.6%), and after extraction from the rotifer were isolated by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) as free fatty acids (FFA), monoacylglycerol (MAG), diacylglycerol (DAG) and triacylglycerol (TAG). The production of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) concentrate from rotifer lipids was studied using lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis. In addition, rotifer lipids were modified by hydrolysis using lipases such as porcine pancreas, Candida rugosa and Rhizomucor miehei. The lipase from Rhizomucor miehei was effective in extracting linoleic acid (C 18:2), while the lipase from Candida rugosa was effective in palmitic acid (C16:0) extraction.

A small cyclopoid copepod M. subtilis (Giesbrecht, 1893 ["1892"]) belonging to the genus Monothula $B{\ddot{o}}ttger-Schnack$ and Huys, 2001 was collected by using $60{\mu}m$ mesh net and firstly recorded in the epipelagic layer of the equatorial Pacific Ocean. We redescribed its morphological characteristics for both female and male, comparing with those of previous studies. Specimens of M. subtilis from the equatorial Pacific Ocean differ from those previously reported by others in terms of the length of the seta G on antenna, being much shorter than setae E and F; in the distal spine on the swimming leg 4, being longer than the length of the third segment on P4. The outer spine of the P3 enp-3 in male is slightly over the tip of conical process. The spine lengths of the distal endopods of P2-P4 for both sexes showed variations among individuals, and the proportions of spine lengths in female are higher than those in male.

연안역의 천해 해저면에 설치된 ADCP(Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, 300kHz, 1200kHz)를 이용, 천해에서 체적 산란강도(volume scattering strength) 수직분포의 시간적인 변동 특성을 알아보았다. 수심 85m와 113m에서 ADCP로 측정한 산란강도의 일주기 변동성은 동물플랑크톤(zooplankton)으로 추측되는 산란체의 일주기 수직 이동(daily vertical migration)의 원인으로 추정되었다. 그러나 수심 20m의 천해에서 관측된 산란강도의 시변동성은 경험적 직교 함수(Empirical Orthogonal Function, EOF) 분석 결과 해저면 부근의 변화가 천해 체적 산란의 변동성에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다.

The present study investigated the swimming pattern and appendage postures of a copepod species, Calanus sinicus, which prevails in the south-east sea of the Korean peninsula, by employing a digital holographic particle tracking velocimetry(PTV) technique. The results showed that the copepod Calanus sinicus had various swimming patterns such as hover, hop, sink, cruise, and downward cruise. Most frequent pattern was the 'hop and sink'. The average swimming speeds ranged from 1.1 to 45.7 body-lengths/s, and the corresponding flow Reynolds number ranged from $10^0$ to $10^2$.

Siphonophores are unique, gelatinous zooplankton, which many individuals gather and live like one "Superorganism". The role of individuals in the colony differs greatly depending on their morphological difference, making them more unique. In this study, we report four species belonging to Diphyidae Quoy and Gaimard, 1827 sampled from the South Sea and off Jeju Island, Korea. Two Chelophyes Totton, 1932 (C. appendiculata (Eschscholtz, 1829); C. contorta (Lens and van Riemsdijk, 1908)) and two Eudoxoides Huxley, 1859 (E. mitra (Huxley, 1859); E. spiralis (Bigelow, 1911)) species are described with multi-focus stacked digital images. Our findings update the confirmed order Siphonophorae Eschscholtz, 1829 in Korea to be three suborders, five families, eight genera, and 13 species. In addition, we summarize the synonyms and global distributions of these four newly recorded species in Korean waters.

Species of the genus Pseudodiaptomus are reported as the major constituents in the fresh or brackish waters in the northeastern Asia (Suh et al., 1991; Oka et al., 1991). Of these species, P. inopinus (Burckhardt) and P. poplesia (Shen) are particularly numerous in spring and autumn (Suh et al., 1991; Shen and Song, 1979). Recently. we found a presence of two types of Pseudodiaptomus inopinus during the course of investigation on zooplankton from Korean estuaries. (omitted)

Oncaea prendeli Shmeleva, 1966 is redescribed here based on a specimen collected using a fine-mesh net in the epipelagic layer in the south sea of Jeju Island, Korea. The Korean specimen is generally similar to Mediterranean specimens in terms of morphological characteristics, but it shows a few minor differences in a slightly larger length-to-width ratio for the distal endopod segment of the antenna, a relatively shorter caudal seta IV, and additional ornamentation on the maxillule and maxilla. This species is distinguishable from the most similar congeneric species, O. tregoubovi Shmeleva, 1968, and three species of the genus Spinoncaea Böttger-Schnack, 2003 by the distal and lateral armature of the antenna, ornamentation on the female maxilliped, spine number on the endopod of leg 2, and proportional length of setae on the caudal ramus. Moreover, spine lengths on the exopods of legs 2-4 are proposed as new morphological characters for the identification of congeners. This is the first record of O. prendeli in Korean waters.

The suborder Hyperiidea is an abundant crustacean zooplankton in pelagic communities with copepods and euphausiaceans. Hyperiidean amphipods are known to be commensals or parasites of gelatinous organisms such as medusae, siphonophores, ctenophores, and salps. Korean hyperiid amphipods have not received taxonomical attention since the 1970s. During a survey of pelagic crustacean species, two species of hyperiid amphipods, Phronima atlantica Guérin-Méneville, 1836 belonging to the family Phronimidae and Oxycephalus clausi Bovallius, 1887 belonging to the family Oxycephalidae, were found on Dokdo, East Sea, Korea. These two species are new to Korean waters. In the present study, we provide descriptions and illustrations of these two hyperiid species.

본 연구에서는 낙동강의 상주보에서부터 합천창녕보까지의 8개에 보에 대해 2011년부터 2013년 까지의 수온, 적산일사량, 영양염 농도, 식물플랑크톤 군집분포, 기타 수질조사 결과를 이용하여 식물플랑크톤 우점종의 천이특성과 수온과의 상관성, 우점종 상호 간의 영향 등에 대해 고찰하였다. 8개 보 단위의 별 우점종 평가에 있어 총 25개 종이 우점하고 있었다. 봄철에 대발생하는 Stephanodiscus sp.는 우점빈도가 39.4%로서 가장 높았으며 현존량 우점율은 58.6%였다. 여름철에 대발생하는 Microcystis sp.의 우점빈도는 8.5%였고 현존량 우점율은 36.6%였다. 8개 조사지점의 수온차이는 평균 $1.83^{\circ}C$로서 지점별 차이는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 분석 대상 우점종 중 수온과 음의 상관성을 보인 것은 Stephanodiscus sp. 1개 종(r=-0.26, p<0.01)이었으며 나머지 7개 종은 양의 상관성이 유의하게 나타냈다(r=0.08~0.28). Stephanodiscus sp.는 $2{\sim}18^{\circ}C$의 수온범위에서 높은 개체밀도를 보였고 $2^{\circ}C$ 이하에서는 $2,000cells\;ml^{-1}$ 이하의 적은 개체밀도를 보였다. Stephanodiscus sp.의 봄철 수화현상 다음에 우점하는 종은 Aulacoseira granulata, Fragilaria crotonensis, Cyclotella sp. 등이었으며, Microcystis sp.는 Stephanodiscus sp.의 개체밀도가 감소되는 $18^{\circ}C$ 정도에서 개체수 증가속도가 높아졌으며, 수온이 $25^{\circ}C$ 이상이 되면 $10,000cells\;mL^{-1}$를 초과하기 시작하고 $28^{\circ}C$ 이상에서부터 현저하게 증가하여 수화현상이 나타났다. 낙동강에서 광범위한 수온 영역에 적응하고 있는 종은 Cyclotella sp., Aulacoseira granulata, Fragilaria crotonensis 등이었다. 적산일사량과 유의한 상관성을 보인 것은 Aulacoseira granulata 1개 종이었다. Stephanodiscus sp.는 분석대상 우점종 중에 Aulacoseira granulata 및 Aphanizomenon flos-aquae 종과의 상관계수가 각각 -0.12 및 -0.09로서(p<0.05) 음의 상관성이 유의하게 나타났다. Stephanodiscus sp.는 동물성플랑크톤의 요각류 (r=-0.11, p<0.01), 지각류 (r=-0.09, p<0.05) 등과 음이 상관성이 유의하게 나타났다. 따라서 Stephanodiscus sp.는 낙동강에서 동물성플랑크톤의 중요한 섭식원이 되고 있을 것으로 추정된다. 여름철 최대 우점종인 Microcystis sp.는 음의 상관성을 나타낸 다른 우점종은 없었다.
