Phytoplankton forms the base of sea ecosystems. Various environmental factors and anthropogenic pollution, primarily, affect the concentration and photosynthetic activity algal cells, and the changes in the phytoplankton photosynthesis influence other elements of aquatic ecosystems. The increase in anthropogenic pollution markedly damages natural aquatic ecosystems, particularly, in the coastal zones, where an intense blooming of microalgae occurs, including the release of highly dangerous ecotoxic substances of various chemical natures (red tides). In this study, we tried to apply as a parameter for the algal blooming prediction in the ocean from fluorescence values in the taken samples around Busan coastal area. F0 value was almost constant but Fv/Fm value showed the irregular pattern. We presume that these results are due to the changes of the ocean environment and climate. To predict or give early warning the algal blooming, we need to investigate the specific area or fixed area through real-time monitoring. Especially, algal blooming prediction or warning can be achieved via continuously monitoring and interpretation of fluorescence changes.

Due to its lack of wave action and tide ecosystem in Inchon dock lacks in marine characteristics. Structural condition in the dock is artificially similar to that of lake. The purposes of this study was to clarify the water quality, to provide the basic physicochemical data and tl resolve the causation of ？미 blooming. Samples were obtained monthly from four stations in Inchon dock during January to December, 1991. Water temperature ranged from $2.7^{\circ}C$ to $27.6^{\circ}C$ under the strong influence of air temperature. Salinity varied between 24.7%-30.4% thus being influenced by freshwater discharged from a spring. Dissolved oxygen was concentrated from 0.1-13.92 mg/l and suspended solids were 6.9-231.0 mg/l. The physicochemical factors were similar to those investigated 10 years ago. However, increased concentration of nitrogenous nutrients initiated ？미 blooming and its process was accelerated to reach eutrophication. Algal blooming was proceeded in March and August.

본 연구에서는 최근 자주 거론되는 녹조발생의 주요 원인을 찾아보고자 하였다. 지난 십년이상의 기상자료 및 수질에 대한 실측자료를 이용하여 녹조원인에 대한 통계적 접근을 시도하였다. 팔당호를 대상으로 한 연구에서 조류예보일수에 일정한 추세를 발견할 수는 없지만 발생년도에는 10일 이상씩 나타나는 특징을 보여 주고 있으며 최근 5년간은 발령일수가 증가하고 있어 주의해야 할 것으로 판단되었다. 유속의 자료 대신 사용된 방류량을 보면 조사기간 중 세 배 정도의 차이가 나는 해도 관찰되었다. 클로로필a에 대한 다른 지표들의 상관계수를 보면 뚜렷한 한 가지 지표로 나타나지 않아서 상관계수 0.4를 넘는 요인은 없었다. 그 중 중요한 요인으로 나타나는 것은 일조시간, BOD, 그리고 방류량이며 일조시간과 BOD는 양의 상관 그리고 강수량과 방류량은 음의 상관을 나타내고 있어서 광합성미생물에 의한 현상으로서 타당한 결과로 보였다. 수온과 총인농도는 중요한 요인이 될 것으로 예상되었으나 결과는 낮은 상관성을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 판단할 때 조류발생에는 여러 가지 요인이 복합적으로 작용하며 그중 일조시간, BOD, 그리고 유속 또는 방류량은 중요한 요인으로 판단된다. 방류량과 다른 요소와의 상관관계도 조사하였다. 강수량과 수온이 양의 상관을 보이는 것은 계절적인 효과로 타당해 보였다.

This study was conducted at Seomjin River estuary to identify the causative species of algal bloom and their blooming cycles. Field surveys were conducted at 4 stations in every week from April to December of 1999. Thirty species were observed as the causative species of alga bloom. Skeletonema costatum, Thalassiosira sp., and microflagellate spp. (mixed red tide: Chroomonas sp. and two species of Prasinophycea) made algal blooms during the present study period. In addition, toxic algal species of diatom Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries and dinoflagellate Dinophysis acuminata were observed. The algal blooms were caused by microflagellate spp. in June, Thalassiosira sp. in July and Skeletonema costatum in August. Generally, the algal blooms persisted for about 5 days in this area.

Algal blooming in 4 major rivers introduces substantial impacts to water front activity. Concentrations of algae are increasing at major points along the Geum River. Ecosystem food webs can be affected by algal blooming because blue-green algae release toxic materials. Even though there have been many studies on blue-green algae, its causality to environmental factors has not been completely determined yet. This study analyzed the exclusive correlation between various hydrometeorological, water quality, and hydrologic variables and the cell number of cyanobacteria to understand causality of blue-green algae in the Geum River. A prewhitening process was introduced to remove the autocorrelation structure and periodicity, which is useful to evaluate the effective relationship between two time series.

In order to investigate the effect of internal loading from sediment on algal blooming at Chusori area in Daechung Reservoir, the amount and contamination level of sediment and the release rate of total phosphorus were analyzed. The sedimentary layer was consisted with two layers, and the average depth of upper and lower ones were 0.35 and 1.44 m, respectively. The fraction of inorganic phosphorus in the sediment was higher than that of organic phosphorus, and the fractions of phosphorus which responsible for internal loading were very high as in the range of 72.7 and 80.2% of inorganic phosphorus. The C/N ratio of sediment taken with core sampler indicated the organic compounds are originated from settled algae from water body. The average release rate of total phosphorus from sediment was $6.74({\pm}0.50)mg/m^2/day$. These results indicated that the internal loading from sediment contributes the excessive algal growth at Churosi area, and the countermeasures to improve the quality of sediments are required to manage algal blooming in Daechung Reservoir.

The oceanic currents in the South China Sea (SCS) are strongly influenced by monsoon winds. A review on the SCS currents has indicated that previous studies have pointed out an anticyclonic circulation in the area between the southern Vietnam coast and the Spratly Islands. However, its detail is not understood because of less information of in situ observations. The physical-biological interaction is quite new research area, which has been established and promoted by means of the ocean color remote sensing. Temporal/spatial variability of the phytoplankton activities are well captured by ocean color (OC) -derived Chlorophyll-a images. Combining the OC-Chl-a and the other high-resolution satellite data (e.g., SST images), the biological aspects of oceanographic variation is well described. The blooming phenomena in the area between the southern Vietnam coast and the Spratly islands are further investigated. Change in the wind-system related to the El Nino generates upwelling/SST-cooling in the sea south of the Spratly Islands through the air-sea-land interaction was studied. The seasonal upwelling is also associated with the harmful algal bloom (HAB) off two side of Indochina Peninsula have investigated. The seasonal variation of SCS phytoplankton blooming and related oceanic conditions in Vietnam coast was observed. Ocean color satellite data has effective contribute to study the oceanic condition and phytoplankton blooming in South China Sea.

Studies on species compostion, promary production of benthic algal assemblage were carried out along a channel of the salt marsh near Inch'on, Kyonggi Bay, Korea. Possible biological, physical and KDICical factors controlling the aglal assemblage were also examined. The oveall diatoms were encountered one hundred and thirty-seven taxa, of which the dominant species were Paralia sulcata and Cymatosira belgica. These two species accounted for 32.6% relative abundance throughout the study period. Diatom taxa had no clear seasonal pattern in abundance analysis. But at the algal blooming period in spring, euglenoids occurred with a high abundance. The chlorophyll a content of benthic algae showed definite seasonal pattern. The algal biomass of the appeared to influence the spatial fluctuation in the algal biomass of the channel was regulated primarily by water content of sediment. Grazing by zoobenthos apperaed to influence the spatial fluctuation in the algal biomass of the sediment surface. The algal photosynthesis was measured in the laboratory with oxygen method. Photo-synthetic rate was independent of the temperature under the lower irradiance. The gross production from March to November was estimated to be 190g C/m2 at the channel slope. Photosynthetic efficiency was 0.37% on the basis of the photosyntherically active radiation for the study period.

충남 홍성의 작은 연못에서 수행되고 있는 식물플랑크톤 연주기의 모델링 연구 과정에서 녹조류 Dictyosphaerium pulchellum의 대발생 과정을 2000년 t월부터 2001년 1월까지 추적하였다. D. pulchellum은 연중 드물게 출현하였으나, 밀도는 3월 12일부터 증가하기 시작하여, 4월 2일에는 $59,200\;co1ony\;mL^{-1}$로 대발생하였고, 4월 16에 급감하였다. 군체는 보통 8세포와 16세포로 이루어졌으나, 대발생이 진행될수록 32세포와 64세포 군체들로 대치되었고, 대발생 후기에는 대부분의 군체가 64세포였다. D. pulchellum세포들은 대발생의 초기에는 건강하였으나,3월 19일부터 기생생물에 감염되어 있는 군체들이 나타났으며,4월 9일에는 대부분의 군체들이 기생생물로 감염되었다. 기생생물로 감염된 세포들은 엽록체가 파괴되었고, 피레노이드도 발달되지 않았다. 현재 진행되고 있는 D. pulchellum의 개체군과 환경요인, 경쟁 및 기생생물과의 관계에 대한 연구는 D. pulchellum의 대발생 과정에 관한 새로운 정보를 제공할 것이다.
