In case of the Sea Areas Utilization Consultation about fishery harbor facilities there has been problems excepting a mooring facility and having the same scope of business subject with harbor, while those scale are different. In this study, we analyzed the 17 cases of the statements for Sea Areas Utilization Consultation according to the development projects of fishery harbors for 2013-2014 and suggested the improvement way to go. First, it is needed to reassess the scope of business subject about fishery harbor because the environmental effects about the development projects for the fishery harbor are not considered separately by facilities, development project for the fishery harbor. Therefore, the reassessment about them are needed surely. Second, the adjustment of the range about fishery harbor facilities on the Sea Area Utilization Consultation is needed because in case of most small fishery ports, the sizes of those facilities are less than the boundary area ($50,000m^2$). Last, consultation subjects shall be more clear in order to protect confusions-related with applying for the Consultation on Utilization of Sea Areas. A new rule for clarifying consultation on business subjects is needed in order to reduce the unclarity and the confusions from being occurred by difference between 'occupancy or use permit of public waters' and 'exclusion of application' and business subjects according to the Public Waters Management and Reclamation Act and the Marine Environment Management Act, respectively.

To investigate the changes in depositional environment around Gangneung Harbor, we analyzed the surface sediment textural parameters and topography data collected five times from February 2007 to February 2009. In the study area, sediments were mainly composed of sand and its sediment size became finer at offshore sites. During summer time, however, the sand grains became coarser than winter season near Namhangjin Beach, inside the harbor, and offshore areas. On the other hand, the grain size of Anmok Beach showed a gradual finer trend with time. Compared with the previous studies conducted before the completion of Gangneung Harbor construction, the mean grain size became finer on Anmok Beach, while it was coarser on Namhangjin Beach. The bathymetric changes observed over a 2-year period showed predominant erosion in the area of 5 to 10 m water depths and deposition in 2 to 5 m water depths. The shallower area less than 2 m water depths showed an alternating trend and yet slightly more dominant erosion process. The sediment textural parameters and the distribution of erosion and deposition have changed continuously. Results imply that such changes show long-term trends as well as seasonal variations in which the trend may have been formed after the completion of Gangneung Harbor construction.

Bivalves collected by a dredge in Yeongil Bay of Gyeongsangbuk-Do Province, Korea in May, 2010 and August, 2010 were 2 species including Dostinorbis japonicus and Scapharca broughtonii. The total abundance of bivalves were 1,703 inds. and 140.9 kg. Among them, the abundance of D. japonicus were 1,198 inds. and 76.1 kg. And the abundance of S. broughtonii were 505 inds. and 64.8 kg. The shell length by bivalves species were 25.76-67.88 mm (mean, 58.08 mm) in D. japonicus and 46.82-113.74 mm (mean, 76.86 mm) in S. broughtonii consisting mainly of recruitment group. By regional abundance comparison, the bivalves abundance collected in the outside harbor was 1,332 inds. and 105.4 kg, which was much more than that of the inside harbor indicating 371 inds. and 35.5 kg. In terms of size, the bivalves collected in the outside harbor were 49.49-67.88 mm (mean, 58.47 mm) in D. japonicus and 48.21-113.74 mm (mean, 77.48 mm) in S. broughtonii, which were larger than those of the inside harbor. The yearly biomass of the main commercial target species, S. broughtonii by swept area method (SAM) was estimated up to 242.1 tons. However, considering the regional differences of bivalves between the inside harbor and the outside harbor by abundance and size comparison, it might have been overfished to bivalves in the inside harbor.

Due to the impermeability of outer wall facilities such as Breakwaters which dissipates the wave energy and keeps harbor tranquility, the enclosed area of harbor becomes partially blocked and the water exchange can be reduced. Recent trends of port development protect water quality and emphasize Water-Front, so the method which enhances the circulation of harbor waters and the dilution of the water pollutants are studied. The best improvement of water quality is a remove of pollutant source on land, but an enclosed port must be enhanced the tidal exchange. For this end, the best improvement may be made a drain-route on the existing outer wall facilities. In this study, the numerical computations were carried out to predict the circulation of harbor waters and the tidal exchange through the drain-rout in the polluted harbor(Samchonpo-guhang) located at the east coast of South Sea. Computational models adopting FDM(Finite Difference Method) were used here and were already verified from the previous studies und ocean survey. As a result of this study, circulation and the tidal exchange at the harbor before and after introduction of drain-route were assessed.

This study is performed to light up the semiotic system of streetscape in the harbor on the basic concept of all cultural phenomena that could be described as a Semiotic System. The semiotic approach to landscape analysis was used for understanding landscape characteristics owing to implication of psychological process. Streets of the study were located at Ganguri and Opori on Gang-Gu Harbor and the signboard semiotics of streets were divided into 17 meanings according to the business category. The analysis of this category was applicable on semiotic meaning. The research results are as follows: First, the main part of the business category was food. 56.3% of Ganguri and 61.8% of Opori had the name of food businesses. Second, the semiotic characteristics of Gang-Gu harbor streets mainly mean place name or friendly name. The food business could be related to the principal products of this district which are called Young-Duk Great Crab. Also, the place name could be from symbolic meaning of the crab and the friendly name could be connected with increasing the sales. Finally, the semiotic approach to landscape does not fully cover the streetscape but could be useful for understanding a skeleton of harbor streetscape.

To investigate long-period wave responses in Sokcho Harbor and Cheongcho lagoon, field measurements were made for long-and short-period waves and current velocities using a Directional Waverider, a ultrasonic-type wave gauge, four pressure-type wave gauges, and a current meter. From the data analysis, it was found that the Helmholtz resonant periods of Sokcho Harbor and Cheongcho lagoon are about 13.6 and 54.5 minutes, respectively, and the dominant period of wave induced current in the passage between Sokcho Harbor and Cheongcho lagoon is about 55.2 minutes which depends on Helmholtz resonant condition of the Cheongcho lagoon. It was also found that the energy level of the far-infra-gravity waves during storm conditions is very high compared with that during calm sea conditions. To investigate relationships between far-infra-gravity waves and short-period waves at offshore station, regression analyses were carried out especially for 1) heights, 2) periods, 3) direction and height, 4) height and period between short-and far-infra-gravity waves, respectively. The results showed that the long-period wave height is highly correlated with the short-period wave height. However, no special trend was found for the other relations. In the future far-infra-gravity wave heights on return period around Sokcho Harbor region can be suggested by using extreme value analyses of long term measured data.

The relationship of zooplankton communities and distributions of copepods as indicator species to environmental variables, such as temperature, salinity, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) was studied in Pusan Harbor in October 1990 and January, April and July 1991. Zooplankton communities were analysed by using cluster analysis and species diversity index. Four groups of copepods as indicator species were Acrocalanus gacilis, Euchaeta plana, pareuchaeta russell and Pleuromamma gracilis as the oceanic warm water species; Cemtropages abdominalis as the neritic cold water species; Meridian lucens as the oceanic cold water species Acartia omorii as the polluted water species. the offshore waters of Pusan harbor was dominated by the oceanic warm water species in October and by the neritic cold water species in January and April. This area showed the low values of COD and Tin. the inshore waters of Pusan harbor, where the high values of cod And Tin and the low value of diversity were recorder was represented by A.. omorii. Cluster analysis of the zooplankton community revealed two or three regional areas in Pusan harbor. Area I, the offshore area of Pusan harbor, not only was represented high species diversity and low density of A. omorii but also was dominated copepods in zooplankton roups. Areas II and III were grouped horizontally from offshore to inshore of Pusan harbor. Area II was showed intermediate values in diversity, density of A. omorii and percentage composition of copepods. Area III was revealed the lowest diversity,density of A.omorii and percentage composition of Cladocerans.Coperpoda was a dominant zooplankton group in each area during the study periods except two special cases.Area II was dominated by Noctiluca scintillans in April and Area III was occupied by Cladocerans in July.Distribution of Indicator species and areas demarcated based on cluster analysis showed a close relationship with environments.

Floating-Harbor syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder associated with SRCAP mutation. To date, approximately 50 cases of Floating-Harbor syndrome have been reported, but none have been reported in Korea yet. Floating-Harbor syndrome is characterized by delayed bony maturation, unique facial features, and language impairment. Here, we present a 6-year-old boy with a triangular face, deep-set protruding eyes, low-set ears, wide nose with narrow nasal bridge, short philtrum, long thin lips, clinodactyly, and developmental delay that was transferred to our pediatric clinic for genetic evaluation. He showed progressive delay in the area of language and cognition-adaption as he grew. He had previously undergone chromosomal analysis at another hospital due to his language delay, but his karyotype was normal. We performed targeted exome sequencing, considering several syndromes with similar phenotypes. Library preparation was performed with the TruSight One sequencing panel, which enriches the sample for about 4,800 genes of clinical relevance. Massively parallel sequencing was conducted with NextSeq. An identified variant was confirmed by Sanger sequencing of the patient and his parents. Finally, the patient was confirmed as the first Korean case of Floating-Harbor syndrome with a novel SRCAP (Snf2 related CREBBP activator protein) mutation (c.7732dupT, p.Ser2578Phefs*6), resulting in early termination of the protein; it was not found in either of his healthy parents or a control population. To our knowledge, this is the first study to describe a boy with Floating-Harbor syndrome with a novel SRCAP mutation diagnosed by targeted exome sequencing in Korea.

In this paper, the harbor tranquility problem is analysed by an improved boundary integral equation method. The effect of the diffracted wave transformation induced by the breakwater and structures located at a harbor mouth is considered. Partial reflection concept is also used to consider energy dissipation effects. The present model is verified by comparing the results of the model for rectangular and semi-circular harbors with the analytic solutions. they show a reasonable agreement. Also the wave height distribution of the HUPO harbor computed using the present model agree well to those from the previous hydraulic model tests. It also shows a good agreement with the results from the time-dependent mild slope equation model.

The concept of the Mobile Harbor had been made recently as a kind of feeder vehicle to transfer a certain amount of container boxes (i.e. 250 TEU at a time) from main ocean container vessels over 5,000 TEU capacity to the container terminal on land. In a harbor a short distance apart from the land, the container loading/unloading operation has to be performed on the main deck of the Mobile Harbor using the container cranes in the state of side-by-side mooring with protection of fenders and robot arms in the gap. Even under the ocean condition of the sea state class 2 or 3, the operation has to be confirmed to be safely performed. In this situation, the floating bodies considering the multiple-body interaction effect also has to be examined whether they might behave safely or not. Especially, this study focuses on the dynamic behavior of the Mobile harbor when a container box is hanged on the crane and the impact load due to the slewing motion is imposed in a certain sea state. The motion response should be controlled within the motion level to assure the safe operation.
