2006년부터 2015년까지 동해 독도 인근해역에서 동물플랑크톤 군집의 변동특성을 조사하였다. 동물플랑크톤 시료는 고정정점의 수온약층 상부수층에서 표준네트로 수직예인하여 획득하였다. 평균수온과 염분은 장기적으로 뚜렷한 변화는 없었으나, 2013년과 2015년 여름철에 상대적으로 낮은 염분이 관측되었다. 동물플랑크톤 평균 개체수는 여름철 기준으로 $317inds./m^3$(2008년)부터 $10,242inds./m^3$(2015년)까지 증가추세를 나타냈고, 동물플랑크톤 장기간 증가는 먹이생물인 엽록소-a 농도 증가와 잠재적 포식자인 주요 어류(멸치, 꽁치, 오징어, 청어, 전갱이)의 어획생산량 감소와 같이 나타났다. 증가를 주도한 우점종은 점진적으로 증가하는 유형류(Oikopleura spp.), 여름철에 주로 출현하며 2012년 이후 급속히 증가한 야광충(Noctiluca scintillans)과 지각류(Penilia avirostris), 그리고 2010년 여름철에 출현하기 시작하여 빠른 속도로 증가한 요각류(Paracalanus parvus s.l.)로 구분되었다. 본 연구결과는 독도주변해역에서 장기간 증가한 동물플랑크톤 개체수가 먹이농도의 증가와 상위포식자의 포식압 감소와 관련있음을 시사하였다.

The mixotrophic dinoflagellate Tripos furca causes red tides in the waters of many countries. To understand its population dynamics, mortality due to predation as well as growth rate should be assessed. Prior to the present study, the heterotrophic dinoflagellates Noctiluca scintillans, Polykrikos kofoidii, Protoperidinium steinii, and mixotrophic dinoflagellate Fragilidium subglobosum were known to ingest T. furca. However, if other common heterotrophic protists are able to feed on T. furca has not been tested. We explored interactions between T. furca and nine heterotrophic dinoflagellates and one naked ciliate. Furthermore, we investigated the abundance of T. furca and common heterotrophic protists in coastal-offshore waters off Yeosu, southern Korea, on Jul 31, 2020, during its red tide. Among the tested heterotrophic protists, the heterotrophic dinoflagellates Aduncodinium glandula, Luciella masanensis, and Pfiesteria piscicida were able to feed on T. furca. However, the heterotrophic dinoflagellates Gyrodiniellum shiwhaense, Gyrodinium dominans, Gyrodinium jinhaense, Gyrodinium moestrupii, Oblea rotunda, Oxyrrhis marina, and the naked ciliate Rimostrombidium sp. were unable to feed on it. However, T. furca did not support the growth of A. glandula, L. masanensis, or P. piscicida. Red tides dominated by T. furca prevailed in the South Sea of Korea from Jun 30 to Sep 5, 2020. The maximum abundance of heterotrophic dinoflagellates in the waters off Yeosu on Jul 31, 2020, was as low as 5.0 cells mL-1, and A. glandula, L. masanensis, and P. piscicida were not detected. Furthermore, the abundances of the known predators F. subglobosum, N. scintillans, P. kofoidii, and Protoperidinium spp. were very low or negligible. Therefore, no or low abundance of effective predators might be partially responsible for the long duration of the T. furca red tides in the South Sea of Korea in 2020.

아산만에서 장마기 전 후 수온, 염분, 영양염, chlorophyll ${\alpha}$ 농도와 중형동물플랑크톤 등에 대해 분포의 특성과 이들 간의 관계를 파악해 보았다. 장마기에 담수 유입에 의한 환경 변화는 동물플랑크톤과 식물플랑크톤(chlorophyll ${\alpha}$) 분포에 직접적인 영향을 주었다. 장마기에 유입된 담수로 인해 영양염 농도는 높아졌고 동물플랑크톤 개체수는 크게 감소하였다. 반면, 식물플랑크톤(chlorophyll ${\alpha}$)은 장마기 종료 시점에 생체량이 증가하였다. 이는 방조제로부터 유출수 증가에 따른 동물플랑크톤 감소와 영양염 유입의 증가가 나타난 후 식물플랑크톤의 생체량이 증가하는 생물학적 과정이 연결되어 나타난 것으로 판단된다. 동물플랑크톤의 분포는 수온 변화에 따라 종별로 다른 양상을 보여 봄철 우점종과 여름철 우점종으로 구분 지을 수 있게 하였다. 이는 수온이 역시 중요한 분포요인이 됨을 보여준다. 그러나 장마로 인한 염분 변화는 전체 동물플랑크톤의 분포에 큰 영향을 주었으며 특히, Noctiluca scintillans, Acartia pacifica, Sagitta crassa에게는 수온보다 장마로 인한 염분 변화가 더 크게 작용한 것으로 판단되었다.

Pacific white-sided dolphins Lagenorhynchus obliquidens inhabit cool temperate waters; in Korean waters, they concentrate near the coast of Gangwon and Gyeongbuk from late autumn to early spring. We collected 15 individuals from Yeongduk, Gyeongju, Ulsan, and Busan between December 2018 and February 2019 and analyzed their stomach contents. Fresh prey items were identified to the species level, and residual stomach contents that were unidentified due to digestion were filtered through a sieve to find fish otoliths and cephalopod beaks. The most important prey items of Pacific white-sided dolphins were cephalopods, composing 68.0% of the diet by occurrence. Fishes were the second largest dietary component, making up 32.0% of the diet by occurrence. Of the cephalopod species consumed, Watasenia scintilans was the principal prey item.

Impact of artificial illumination on zooplankton dynamics has been studied in Tongyong marine ranch during the period from August 1998 to August 1999. Monthly sampling has been carried out to collect zooplankters from both natural waters and artificially illuminated waters at night. A total of 48 taxa of zooplankton occurred during the study. Copepods showed the prosperity in species number with 21 species. Every sample from illuminated waters consisted of move than 15 species except February while less than 15 species in samples from natural waters during the winter. Benthic amphipods occurred abundantly in illuminated waters. Zooplankton abundance was revealed to be increased in illuminated waters mainly due to the gathering of amphipods (4,500 indiv. $m^{-3})$ in September and October. Twenty times of zooplankton abundance was recorded in illuminated waters when compared with that in natural ones in September due to the gathering: of amphipods and ten times by the explosion of N. scintillans in August 1999. However, no distinct difference in the abundance was observed between two waters in the winter. Zooplankton gathering with artificial illumination seemed to be effective in amphipods, while copepods were hardly affected by the artificial illumination at night.

Beekeeping status of Apis cerana with emphasis of experiences overcoming sacbrood virus disease are presented. Social bee fauna are rich in Vietnam with 6 honeybee species (Apis laboriosa, Apis dorsata, Apis mellifera, Apis cerana, Apis andrenifomis, Apis florea); 8 stingless bee species (Trigona laeviceps, Trigona ventralis, Trigona pagdeni, Trigona gressitti, Trigona fuscobalteata, Trigona capenteri, Trigona scintillans Trigona iridipenis) and 2 bumble bee species (Bumbus haemorrhoidalis, B. breviceps). All of them are native except A. mellifera which was introduced in1887. These bees are slated for conservation by the Ministry of Agriculture & Rural Development. Honey and other bee products are mainly harvested from 3 species including A. cerana, A. mellifera and A. dorsata. The manageable species (A. cerana and A. mellifera) are increasing in number, reaching about 1,500,000 beehives. Vietnam is the second largest honey exporter in Asia, with a total of about 48,000 tons of honey exported to the international market in 2014. A. cerana plays an important role in poverty alleviation in mountainous and remote areas of Vietnam. Honeybee suffers from various diseases of Sacbrood virus disease (SBV), European foulbrood (EFB), Nosema, and parasitic mites of Tropilaelaps mercedes and Varroa destructor. Most of these diseases can be resolved with biocontrol methods. For the parasitic mites, Vietnamese beekeepers usually apply formic acid.

Recently, the heterotrophic nanoflagellate Katablepharis japonica has been reported to feed on diverse red-tide species and contribute to the decline of red tides. However, if there are effective predators feeding on K. japonica, its effect on red tide dynamics may be reduced. To investigate potential effective protist predators of K. japonica, feeding by the engulfment-feeding heterotrophic dinoflagellates (HTDs) Oxyrrhis marina, Gyrodinium dominans, Gyrodinium moestrupii, Polykrikos kofoidii, and Noctiluca scintillans, the peduncle-feeding HTDs Luciella masanensis and Pfiesteria piscicida, the pallium-feeding HTD Oblea rotunda, and the naked ciliates Strombidium sp. (approximately $20{\mu}m$ in cell length), Pelagostrobilidium sp., and Miamiensis sp. on K. japonica was explored. We found that none of these heterotrophic protists fed on actively swimming cells of K. japonica. However, O. marina, G. dominans, L. masanensis, and P. piscicida were able to feed on heat-killed K. japonica. Thus, actively swimming behavior of K. japonica may affect feeding by these heterotrophic protists on K. japonica. To the contrary, K. japonica was able to feed on O. marina, P. kofoidii, O. rotunda, Miamiensis sp., Pelagostrobilidium sp., and Strombidium sp. However, the specific growth rates of O. marina did not differ significantly among nine different K. japonica concentrations. Thus, K. japonica may not affect growth of O. marina. Our findings suggest that the effect of predation by heterotrophic protists on K. japonica might be negligible, and thus, the effect of grazing by K. japonica on populations of red-tide species may not be reduced by mortality due to predation by protists.

The feeding habits of the Pacific bluefin tuna, Thunnus orientalis were examined based on the stomach contents of 330 specimens caught by offshore large purse seine fishery in the southern sea of Korea, 2011. The size of Pacific bluefin tuna used in this study ranged from 34.1 to 67.3 cm in fork length (FL). The percentage of empty stomachs was 41.8%. The main prey items were Pisces and Cephalopoda based on percentage IRI (index of relative importance). The main fish preys were Trachurus japonicus, Bregmaceros japonicus, Engraulis japonicus, and Cephalopoda were Todarodes pacificus, Loligo edulis, Watasenia scintillans. T. orientalis showed ontogenetic change in diet composition. Although Pisces dominated the diet of all length classes the portion of Cephalopoda was relatively higher in size between 40 and 50 cm other than length classes. In terms of seasonal variation in feeding habits, Pisces was the main prey group in all seasons, but Cephalopoda was also frequently consumed during spring and autumn based on %IRI.

Zooplankton community structure was investigated in the Saemangeum region in March, May, July and October of 2007 and 2008 in order to understand the potential effect of post construction of Saemangeum dyke on their temporal and spatial distribution. Mean abundance of zooplankton in the inner and outer area of the dyke, except for dinoflagellate Noctiluca scintillans, ranged from 173 to 15,830 ind.m$^{-3}$, showing higher variability in the inner area compared to the outer area. Zooplankton abundance was higher in the outer area than the inner area in 2007, and vice versa in 2008. In the inner area of the dyke, zooplankton abundance was the highest in May 2007 and March 2008. In the outer area of the dyke, abundance was the highest in October 2007 and July 2008. Brackish species such as Tortanus derjugini and Pseudodiaptomus inopinus were dominant prior to construction of the dyke, and appeared less frequently in the inner area. Marine zooplankton taxa such as juvenile hydromedusa, and calanoid copepods Acartiahongi and Paracalanus parvus s.l. dominated both areas of the dyke. In CCA analysis, zooplankton community structure in the inner and outer area was similar in March and May, but different in July and October. Temperature, salinity and COD were important environmental factors affecting zooplankton community structure. These results suggest that zooplankton community structure in the inner and outer area of Saemangeum dyke are significantly affected by whether the sluice gates are closed or open.
