The annual and monthly fluctuation in the species composition and the catch abundance of dominant species were analyzed using the daily sales slip catch data by a set net in the offshore waters off Dolsan Island in Yeosu from March 2004 to December 2011. Mean catch from 2004 to 2011 is 372M/T and the maximum and the minimum catch are 526 M/T in 2005 and 27 2M/T in 2009, respectively. The dominant species were Engraulis japonicus mainly in spring and Scomberomorous niphonius in Autumn and therefore the set net catch that is dominated by S. niphonius's catch was much higher in autumn than in spring. Through comparative analyses for the environmental factors to the annual catch fluctuation, it is revealed that the water temperature variation affected the recruitment property of S. niphonius to the fishing ground but the effect of typhoon on the catch fluctuation was not distinct. Furthermore, the big blooming event of jellyfish, particularly Nemopilema nomurai, that occurred in 2009 showed a tendency of faster appearance and later extinction until December. The occurring characteristic of N. nomurai became a direct cause that brought about the lowest total catch in 2009 since the dominant species catch of the set net fishery was concentrated mostly in Autumn.

A total of 27 fish species were collected by a gill net in Masan Bay. The dominant fish species were Konosirus punctatus, Mugil cephalus, Engraulis japonicus, Psenopsis anomala, Lateolabrax japonicus, Leiognathus nuchalis, Chelon affinis, Trachurus japonicus, and these accounted for 87.6% of the total numbers. The numerically dominant fish species made up 95.4% of biomass. These were primarily juvenile species or early larger species. Temporal variation in both species composition and abundance was large: the peak number of fishes occurred in March 2005 and July 2005, whilst biomass of fishes was the highest in September 2005 and November 2005. Fish numbers as well as biomass was lowest in November 2005. Temporal changes in the abundance of fishes corresponded with temperature. A gill net can be used as an alternative fishing gear to collect pelagic fishes commercially, although a gill net has a strong selectivity for the target fish species or for size.

To obtain geographical range and growth-kinetics parameters of mottled sake (Beringraja pulchra) populations in the Yellow Sea, three mark-recapture experiments were carried out. Overall, 991 tagged individuals were released, and 4.1% of them were recaptured with the mean release period of 339 d (range, 8-1,420 d) and the mean growth rate of $1.4cm\;mon^{-1}$ (female, $1.5cm\;mon^{-1}$; male $1.3cm\;mon^{-1}$). In the first experiment, 667 individuals were released at Heuksan Island from April to June, 2007-2009, and 30 individuals were recaptured mainly at the north and the north-east coasts of the island, indicating absence of migration to the south of the island. In the second experiment, 323 individuals were released at several fishing grounds scattered in the Yellow Sea in 2010-2013, and 11 individuals were recaptured at points deviated to all directions from the releasing points. As the last, one individual was released with pop-up satellite archival tag at a costal point ($34^{\circ}37.2$'N, $124^{\circ}59.3$'E) off Hong Island on May 21, 2010. The tagged individual migrated to a north-east location ($35^{\circ}50.4$'N, $126^{\circ}03.6$'E) of Eocheong Island by Aug. 25, 2010. The data archived for the three months in the tag indicated that the migration path had depths of 48-80 m and temperature of $12.6-14.4^{\circ}C$. The results indicated that mottled sake populations had a localized habitat ranges at the north of Heuksan Island and the west of Hong Island while growing at the rate of $1.4cm\;mon^{-1}$.

Distribution of Anchovy was analyzed from the experimental operations by the small anchovy drag net fishery in the coastal area of Yang yang - gun and Myongju - gun of Kangwon Province from October to December, 1994. Temperature ranged from $11.4^{\circ}C.$to $17.4^{\circ}C.$throughout the experimental period. Fishes caught by experimental operation vessels were composed of anchovy, Clupanodon Punctatus, Pleuronectidae, Tetraodantidae, Acanthopagrus Schlegeli etc., and the anchovy occupied more than 99.6% of the total catch. Anchovy was characterized by the most abundance of the catch for the individual less than 6cm and the gradual increase after October for those larger than 6cm. CPUE(catch per tow) of anchovy was 684kg in October, 784kg in November, 1,590kg in December and mean CPUE of 3 months from October to December was 1,066kg. Fishing grounds of anchovy were formed in coastal area, from $37^{\circ}$45'N to $38^{\circ}$04'N, off Kangwon Province. Distribution density of anchovy in Chumunjin - up, Kyohang - ri Sachon - myon, and Sachonjin - ri coasts was higher than the other areas. Anchovy caught in this surveyed area was recruited from July to September at the length class between 2cm and 3cm, and grew to the sizes between 4cm and Bem in October, between 5cm and tcm in November, between tcm and Bem in December. Recruitment of anchovy increased from July to September and suddenly decreased after September. Individual number of the population was the largest during the period from August to October and gradually decreased after October. Biomass continuously increased after August, and was the largest in December.

Seasonal variation in species composition and abundance of fishes was determined using monthly samples collected by a fyke net in coastal waters off Namhae Island in 2006. The sampling gear, both-side fyke net, is a widely used commercial fishing gear in shallow waters of the region. A total of 89 fish species was collected, the dominant species were Konosirus punctatus, Mugil cephalus, Lateolabrax japonicus, Acanthopagrus schlegeli, Sebastes inermis, Nibea mitsukurii, Clupeapallasii, Pampus echinogaster, Sebastes schlegeli and Limanda yokohamae. They accounted for 61.1% of the total number of individuals and 80.3% of the biomass. The dominant species were primarily composed of small individuals or juveniles of large-sized fishes. Abundance in the number of individuals and biomass showed peaks in April, May and September, and was lowest in January. Temporal change in fish abundance was related to the temperature and related factors.

During the period of the Cochlodinium polykrikoides red tide occurrence in the southern coast of Korea in 1997, we obseved the vertical migration of red tide organisms in situ, along with environmental factors such as water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, chlorophyll $\alpha$ and nutrients for practical application of loess suspension techniques ot diminish fisheries damage. To cope with serious outbreaks of red tide of C. polykrikoides, the finfish culturists resorted with loess suspension to disperse the bloom watermass by turning around it with fishing boats in full speed. Peak in afternoon the cell numbers were diminished in the surface layer after sunset red tide organisms settled down in the middle and bottom layer progressively again after sunrise. Chlorophyll $\alpha$ and dissolved oxygen showed the same trends of variation with the cell number. In the course of controlling the red tide with loess suspension we could not find any severs oxygen deficiency to kill the culture species.

Global warming affects critical natural resources, one of which is the oceans that occupy 70% of the total cover of the earth. In other words, ocean warming is a subset of global warming which needs to be addressed urgently. Purple laver (pyropia spp.) is one of the most vulnerable items to climate change although it is a major export product of Korean fisheries. The purpose of this study is to analyze the causality of how climate change caused by global warming affects the increase or decrease of PLP (purple laver production). The target area for analysis was set to Maro-hae between Jindo-gun and Haenam-gun. We selected marine environmental factors and meteorologic factors that could affect PLP as variables, as well as co-integration tests to determine long-term balance, and the Granger causticity tests. As a result, PLP and marine environmental factors WT (water temperature), pH, and DO confirmed that long-term equilibrium relationships were established, respectively. However, there is only causality with WT and it is confirmed that there is only a correlation between pH and DO (dissolved oxygen). There was no long-term equilibrium relationship between PLP and HDD (heating degree days) and there is a causal effect that HDD affects PLP; however, it was less clear than that of WT. The relationship between PLP and RF (rainfall), WS (wind speed), SS (percentage of sunshine), and FF (farm facilities) was all balanced in the long term, and causality exists. Based on the results of the analysis, policy proposals were made.

This study proposes a cost-effective method to monitor coastal environments using e-Navigation-implemented domestic and international ferries, and to analyze big data of records such as wind, temperature, salinity, waves, and currents that are gathered through e-Navigation system. First, we present the concept and architecture of e-Navigation operation system based on the General Information Center on Maritime Safety and Security. Then, the marine observation system that can be applied to ferries operating in our nation's territory is discussed. Analytical methods, such as spatio-temporal mixed effects model, ensemble method, and meshfree method, in handling real-time big data obtained by the e-Navigation observing system are then explained in detail. This study will support the implementation of the Korean e-Navigation project that focuses on the safety of small vessels such as coasters and fishing vessels.

Recently, the demand for low-voltage, high-capacity ESS is rapidly increasing due to the revitalization of the e-mobility industry, which is mainly powered by electricity. In addition, the demand for portable power banks is rapidly increasing due to the revitalization of leisure industries such as camping and fishing. The ESS with this structure consists of a small number of series cells and many parallel cells, resulting in a system with a large rated current. Therefore, the number of power devices for cell balancing configured in series is small, but a balancing device with a large current capacity is required. Construction of a constant temperature device in such a low-voltage, high-current ESS is difficult due to economic issues. The demand for an active balancing system that can solve the passive balancing heating problem is rapidly increasing. In this paper, propose a power feedback fly-back topology that can solve the balancing heating problem. The characteristic of the proposed topology is that a series-connected voltage sharing voltage is used as the input of the flyback converter, and the converter output is connected to one transformer. In this structure, the converter output for cell voltage balancing shares magnetic flux through one high-frequency transformer, so the cell voltage connected to the converter automatically converges to the same voltage.

Species composition and bimonthly changes of fish community were investigated with the fishes collected by using both trammel nets and fish pots in the coastal waters of Sagyeoi, Jeju Island from May 2009 to February 2010. A total of 1,921 individuals (324,206 g in biomass), which comprise 10 orders and 35 families with 60 species, were collected during the study period. Among 60 species, 52 species were caught by trammel nets, 20 species by fish pots, and 12 species by both fishing gears. The five dominant species were Pseudolabrus sieboldi, Plotosus lineatus, Pteragogus flagellifer, Sebastiscus marmorattus and Diodon holocanthus in the aspect of total number of individuals, and Diodon holocanthus, Sebastiscus marmorattus, Stephanolepis cirrhifer, Pseudolabrus sieboldi, Parupeneus chrysopleuron in biomass. Each characteristics of fish community such as the number of species, the total number of individuals, and biomass were highly correlated with water temperature and salinity, which were all statistically significant at the 5% significant level. In other words, there was a tendency of increment of each characteristics according to a raise in water temperature or a decrease of salinity, and vise versa. The number of species, the total number of individuals, and biomass of fishes were highest in August and lowest in February.
