Six species of the family Kelleriidae, including four new species, are recorded from tropical waters of the Asia-Pacific, two of them from Phuket Island, Thailand, one each from Bohol Island, Philippines and Phu Quoc Island, Vietnam, and two from Kosrae Island, Micronesia. A new genus Kelleriella is proposed to accomodate one of these new species (Kelleriella quadridens n. sp.). There are three diagnostic features of the new genus: the terminal segment of antenna is armed with one strong claw and six setae, the armature of the maxilliped endopod is reduced, and the third exopodal segment of leg 4 is armed with four spines and five setae. The other three new species are Kelleria latipes n. sp., Kelleria phuketensis n. sp., and Kelleria robusta n. sp. As diagnostic features of these new species, their caudal rami are about 2.5, 3.2, and 1.72 times longer than wide, respectively, the exopod of leg 5 of them is smooth, without any process, about 1.9, 3.7, and 2.9 times longer than wide, respectively, and armed with one spine plus one seta in Kelleria latipes and Kelleria phuketensis or with 2 setae in Kelleria robusta. Additionally, Kelleria javaensis Mulyadi, 2009 is synonymized with Kelleria regalis Gurney, 1927 and Kelleria grandisetiger Kim, 2006 is synonymized with Kelleria andamanensis Sewell, 1949, and both species are redescribed.

The edible jellyfish Rhopilema esculentum occurs in waters throughout northeastern Asia, including in Korea, China, and Japan. In Korean waters, R. esculentum has appeared in two regions (Gangwha and Muan). Based on the appearance of young medusae and coastal distribution records, these two regions may be key R. esculentum breeding sites. In the present study, we investigate and compare the genetic structure of R. esculentum in the two regions using mitochondrial sequences (16S ribosomal RNA and cytochrome c oxidase subunit I). The genetic diversity of the R. esculentum population at Ganghwa exceeded that of the population at Muan. Despite considerable geographic separation (400 km) between the two regions(Gangwha and Muan), our haplotype network suggests that the Gangwha and Muan populations of R. esculentum are related. The simple and monotonous genetic structure of the Muan population shows that R. esculentum emergence is relatively recent. In contrast, the Gangwha population shows evolution. Moreover, jellyfish of the Gangwha population are genetically diverse and remain constant despite environmental fluctuations in the Han River. The Gangwha area is considered to be the old origin of R. esculentum in Korea.

In this study, the seasonal distribution was surveyed using acoustic in the coastal waters around nuclear power plants. Acoustic surveys were conducted in June, September, December 2022, and March 2023 in the coastal waters of Uljin-gun. According to the results of this study, zooplankton were distributed at the depths from 0 m to 50 m in the waters around nuclear power plants. Zooplankton appeared in summer (June), autumn (September), and spring (March). In the survey area, fish were distributed at the depths from 25 m to 190 m, appearing in the summer (June), autumn (September), winter (December) and spring (March). The SV of zooplankton appearing in the survey area ranged from -98.0 dB to -78.0 dB, and it exhibited a one-class in the frequency distribution of SV. The SV of fish appearing in the survey area ranged from -36.0 dB to -35.0 dB and -98.0 dB to -53.0 dB, and it exhibited two-class in the frequency distribution of SV.

Recent changes in the coastal sea surface temperatures (SST) in Korea are studied by time series analysis of daily SST data during the last 60 years (1936-1995) at 18 coastal observation stations of the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute. The climate of coastal SST in Korea are rapidly changing in recent years. General trends of coast SST changes in Korea are as follows. The annual averages of SST are increasing. The annual ranges of SST variation are decreasing. The winter SST are increasing while the summer SST have a decreasing tendency. Climatic changes in coastal SST in recent 30 years (1965-1995) are more pronounced than those in the last 60 years (1936-1995). The observed trend of coast SST implies that the climate in Korea shows a tendency to shift from temperate zone to subtropical zone.

1. 여름(8월)에 북위 $29^{\circ}$ 동경 $127^{\circ}30'$ 근해의 동지나해 대륙붕 동측을 동복진하는 Kuroshio의 주류는 처음에는 연안 수괴와 반류역 수괴의 표층 경계를 폭좁게 통과하나, 동진함에 다라 범위가 넓어져 큐우슈우 남방의 Tokora 해협 부근에서는 폭이 약 2배로 넓어진다. 2. Kuroshio 강류역의 상층부의 표면 부근이 동지나해 연안수 확장이 있고, 상층부의 밑에는 반류역 표층수의 잠입을 볼 수 있고, 고 중간은 각 수괴가 복잡하게 혼합한 수괴로 되어 있다고 본다. 또, 그 해역의 동쪽에는 균일한 수괴를 형성한다고 볼 수 있다. 3. 이 해역에서 Kuroshio의 연직 혼합은 대략 표면에서 250m층간이다. 4. 아마미섬과 동지나해 대륙붕간의 수괴는 와동역과 반류역 Kuroshio 유역, 연안수의 잠입에 의한 Kuroshio 혼합역으로 구분된다. 5. 이 해역에서 얻어진 최대 유속은 139cm/sec이며, 단위 시간당 Kuroshio 수송량은 $24.6\;\times\;10^6m^3/sec$로서 남부의 오끼나와섬과 대륙붕 해역간의 $33\;\times\;10^6m^3/sec$ 보다 적다. 6. 표층 해류는 Tsushima 해협, 제주도 방면으로 향하는 것, 큐우슈우 연안으로 향하는 것, Tokora 해협을 거쳐 태평양으로 빠지는 것, 아마미 군도 및 오끼나와, 팔중산군도로 남향하는 것 등으로 구분된다. 그리고, 제주도와 Tsushima로 향하는 것은 유속이 극히 느려 0.3-0.5 놋트의 유동이었다. 7. 대륙붕 연변의 경사에서 저층 표류물은 Tsushima 난류에 향하여 수송된다. 그것은 대륙붕 위에서 저층 표류물이 황해 저층수로 유입되는 수송양식과는 다른 수송 기구를 이루고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 8, 여러 수괴가 혼합되어 있는 이 해역을 Kuroshio가 흐르는 동안, 대륙 연안수와 혼합이 심하여, Kuroshio는 그 성질 일부가 크게 변질한다.

Multipurpose fisheries base was conceptually designed to establish marine ranching system in the coastal waters around Tongyoung, southern sea of Korea. Fisheries base for marine ranching system has integrated various facilities which were required for the process of spawning, rearing, training, releasing, monitoring and catching functions. This base has five steel piles for supporting upper structure and systems. Four steel piles are surrounded by circular net pen made by steel wire, they have the function of the protection against fouling for pile and scouring for bottom soil as well as secondary rearing and short stocking. We can use the last pile to moor a ship and access to the base. Principal structure with steel piles is designed by optimization technique considering design external forces in the coastal waters of return period of 50 years. Design optimization Problem is formulated for this base. Optimal design of multipurpose fisheries base is numerically investigated by sequential quadratic programming method.

A single specimen of Albula leptocephalus (55.7 mm SL) was collected from the southern coastal waters of Korea using an aquatic lamp. It is characterized by having a ribbon-like body with a small head and a well-forked caudal fin. Although the general appearance was similar to the leptocephalus of A. vulpes including myomere counts and fin ray counts, the melanophore deposition was different from that of A. vulpes. This leptocephalus specimen was confirmed with A. forsteri using the cytochrome b mtDNA (Cytb) analysis. The genetic distance of Cytb between the present leptocephalus and A. forsteri is 0.006-0.038, which falls into the cutoff point separating Albula species into eight deep lineages including the four valid species. Its genetic characteristic have more similarities to those of Fiji than those of Hawaii and the Northern territory of Australia.

The relativity of four isolates of C. polykrikoides was determined by comparative sequence analysis based on direct sequencing of PCR amplified ribosomal DNA (the internal transcribed spacer region and the 5.8S rDNA). Sequence comparisons indicated that four isolates had the same nucleotide sites in the ITS regions, as well as a total of 585 nucleotide length and 100% homology. The molecular data revealed that C. polykrikoides in Korean coastal waters show no genetical difference.

The qualitative and quantitative composition of the phytoplankton of the coastal waters off Vladivostok during the period 1991-1994 was studied. The following trends in the phytoplankton composition with decreasing distance from the source of eutrophication were revealed: 1) total density and bio-mass increased; 2) the density of the diatom Skeletonema costatum, which reflects a decrease in the Shannon-Weaver species diversity index during the summer microalgal bloom, increased significantly; and 3) the density of the non-diatom component of the phytoplankton increased.
