  • The amount of damage suffered from the red tide occurring at the near shore is increasing rapidly. The Windows visual system discussed in this paper is developed in order to help minimize the damage. The system is focused on the monitoring the coastal environment. and forecasting the red tide occurrence. Although several similar systems are now existing. most of them are based on the web application. which cause the large response time. limited presentation ability of data. and inability of data storing at client side. The Windows visual system described in this paper operates on the Internet to get the ubiquitous access. One of three components of the Windows visual system. client system is developed as a Windows application in order to overcome the weak points of the previous systems. The gathering. analysis, and monitoring of data can be done at real time using the Windows visual system.

  • Ocean monitoring facilities are divided into two types, fixed type and floating type. This paper deals with wane load calculation and mooring system for a floating monitoring facility. Wave load and drift forces are calculated for an example case of floating monitoring buoy To enlarge holding power of anchor, circular pile model test was performed. A program for horizontal force of circular pile in sand was made and the calculated result showed fairy good agreement with the result of model test. It is expected that this method will provide good estimation for the holding power of the prototype of circular pile anchor which is relied upon SCUBA activity for installation.

  • The relationship between marine environmental improvement and environmental perception of the inhabitants was investigated. For this purpose, the seawater and bottom materials were analysed. Apart from this, the questionnaire surveys were also conducted around the Sun-so coastal area. In order to examine the improvement in the marine environment, 12 monitoring sites, which are located around Sun-so coast and can be divided into two parts such as inland (GW1-GW6) and outland (GW7-GW12) sea, were chosen. All the collected samples were analyzed to find out the quality of seawater (temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen: DO, chemical oxygen demand: COD and suspend solid: SS), nutrients (total nitrogen: TN and phosphate: $PO_4-P$) and bottom materials (COD, volatile solids: VS) as per the standard analytical procedures. In addition, the questionnaire mainly focused on the following three factors: 1) social economy, 2) dependent environmental awareness and 3) independent environmental awareness related with the environmental education. The monitoring studies indicated that the marine environment of the Sun-so coast showed various trends for analyzing parameter. No significant temporal changes in temperature, pH and salinity were observed. However, the other parameters showed decreasing (COD, SS, TN, $PO_4-P$ and VS) and increasing (DO) trends according to the quality of seawater and bottom materials. The questionnaire survey clearly showed that most of the residents in Sun-so recognized the improvement of marine environment as compared with the situation experienced in the past. The dredging project which is closely related with economic and living conditions of the local residents led to alter the environmental perceptions and attitudes. The survey also indicated that the inhabitants perceived the necessity of the environmental education (87% of respondents) and preferred regular schooling (55% of respondents) as effective and practical education methods.

  • We analyzed with HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) analysis photosynthetic pigments and environmental factors, microscopic observations of the phytoplankton and zooplankton in the seawater every month from February 2009 to November 2010 in Haengam Bay. The level of dissolved inorganic nutrients was the highest between July and September, when freshwater influx was at its peak, whereas chlorophyll a levels were the highest in April and August. Also, phytoplankton pigment concentration increased when dissolved inorganic nutrients are carried into nearshore waters by rainfall runoff. Based on identification of phytoplankton and photosynthetic pigments results, diatoms were mainly dominant while dinoflagellate populations increased at July and August 2009, May 2010. The zooplankton communities are dominated in terms of Noctiluca scintillans. The contribution of Noctiluca scintillans in 2010 accounts for approximately 77.3% of the total zooplankton. Distribution patterns over time of zooplankton in the seasonal distribution of phytoplankton showed a different pattern.

Pollution of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Seawater and Marine Sediments from Anmyundo Coastal Area after Oil Spill (유류사고 이후 안면도 연안 해수 및 퇴적물의 다환방향족탄화수소(PAHs) 오염에 관한 연구)

  • Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were investigated in seawater and marine sediment from Anmyundo coastal area after oil spill. The concentrations of total PAHs in surface and bottom of seawater at August were 31.1 to 142.6 ng/L and 5.9 to 50.9 ng/L in August and November, respectively. The concentrations of PAHs in sediment were 21.0 to 102.9 ng/g D.W. and 32.3 to 57.4 ng/g D.W. in August and November, respectively. PAHs concentrations in seawater and sediment in August were higher than those in November about 2.5 and 1.4 times, respectively. Diagnostic ratio (PhA/AnT and FluA/Pyr) were investigated to identify source of PAHs in seawater and sediment. The PAHs in seawater originated from pyrolytic source and those in sediment originated from pyrolytic and petrogenic source. The glass, wood and coal origin was higher than petroleum origin on the combustion origin of PAHs in seawater and sediment. The seawater of Anmyundo costal area recovered from oil spill, but the sediments of that were weakly influenced by oil spill until now. Because this area is developed many fishing grounds, demanded Long Term Environmental Monitoring Program (LTEMP). The concentrations of PAHs on depth of sediments were investigated at station 8 and 10. The concentrations of PAHs were decreased with increasing depth.

  • Environmental management and design based on the coastal characteristics are highly recommended because it is highly required to provide pleasant and safe environment in Marina. The coastal environment have a large spatial and temporal variations. Thus, the systematic survey monitoring should be planned and the practical management level should be determined based on the practically achievable level and minimum requirement not a standardized single criteria. It aimed to suggest the basic essential steps and related techniques needed in each step.

  • Marine casualties are caused mainly by collisions and grounding, due to human error. The SMART Navigation Service is preparing a measure to reduce marine casualties caused by human error and establish an LTE Accident Vulnerability Monitoring System (SV10) to evaluate the danger of collision or grounding for a vessel based on location information collected on land. This service will also share real-time vessel locations and danger information with related agencies to enable them to respond more quickly to accidents on land. In this study, statistical reports on marine casualties and investigation reports provided by the Korea Maritime Safety Tribunal are analyzed, so the percentage of marine casualties that could be reduced using the SV10 service could be identified.

  • We evaluated the presence of uniconazole residual pesticide in agricultural products by using multiclass pesticide multiresidue methods. Samples were collected from January to August, 2012. The pesticide was detected in 14 samples among the 3,632 samples tested. Amount of the uniconazole pesticide ranged from 0.098 to 2.2 mg/kg in the 14 samples. This method was described for the simultaneous determination of uniconazole by using gas chromatography with an electron capture detector (GC-ECD) and mass spectrometry (MS). For evaluating the GC-ECD method, uniconazole was spiked into gyeojachae at a level of 0.05, 0.5 mg/kg. The recoveries of uniconazole with the GC-ECD method ranged from 98.9-109.4%. The results indicate that our method of simultaneous analysis is applicable to uniconazole analysis.
