For the water quality improvement in the ocean outfall area of sewage treatment plant, this study tried to control the water quality of outfall area using the biofilter method through seaweeds, a way of ecological engineering treatment that is applicable in the marine ecosystem. Therefore, this research made an attempt the main factors necessary for creating seaweed bed to improve water quality in the outfall area of sewage treatment plant, and the results are as follows. In the case of making the seaweed bed in the ocean outfall area of sewage treatment plant, Habitat Suitability Index of Ecklonia cava per all survey points, considered physical and physico-chemical factors in 5~10 meters below sea level, was 50~93% (average 80%), so this seaweed, Ecklonia cava, was suitable for making the seaweed bed.

Seaweed alginate was acetylated by activated carbon immobilized Pseudomonas syringae in a fluidized bed, up-flow reactor. The acetylation degree of seaweed alginate was about 30%. Calcium-acetylated seaweed alginate gel bead was made and compared to calcium-seaweed alginate gel bead by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Structural difference of two gel beads may results from increased viscosity and decreased affinity of acetylated seaweed alginate for calcium ion. On the basis of interior and exterior structure of calcium-acetylated seaweed alginate gels and property of acetylated seaweed alginate, it seems that acetylated seaweed alginate is used for the supporter for electrophoresis and packing materials for liquid chromatography and gel filtration.

2014년 추계에 제주 북서부 연안의 해조장에서 해양환경 및 식물플랑크톤의 일차생산력 특성을 파악하였다. 연구 해역의 용존태 무기 질소와 용존태 무기 인은 중영양의 영양상태였으며, Redfield ratio는 16 이하로 무기 질소가 식물플랑크톤의 성장에 제한 요인으로 나타났다. 또한 용존태 유기 질소와 용존태 유기 인은 각각 용존태 총 질소와 용존태 총 인 중 약 63%, 46%를 구성하고 있었다. 광 이용 효율(${\alpha}$)과 최대 광합성량($P_m{^B}$)은 동귀(바다숲 조성 3년 경과 해역), 고내(바다숲 조성 1년 경과 해역), 비양도(천연해조장), 금능(갯녹음 해역) 순으로 감소하였다. 또한, 식물플랑크톤의 일차생산력은 해조장이 위치한 해역이 갯녹음 해역에 비해서 높았다. 특히, 연구해역은 무기 질소가 제한된 환경이지만 상대적으로 풍부한 용존태 유기 질소는 높은 일차생산을 유지하기 위한 중요한 요인으로 작용할 것이다. 뿐만 아니라 광합성을 통해 한 시간 만에 전체 식물플랑크톤 탄소량의 약 14%를 생산할 수 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 해조장의 물질순환과 생태적 가치평가를 위한 중요한 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

Coastal vegetation consists of rooted flowering marine plants that provide a variety of ecosystem services to the coastal areas they colonize. The attenuation of currents and waves and sediment stabilization are often listed among these services. From this point of view, artificial seaweed is an effective method of controlling sea bed sediment and stabilization without damaging the landscape or the stability of the coastline. A series of hydraulic experiments were performed in a wave channel with regular and irregular waves to examine the effect of artificial seaweed in relation to scouring and beach erosion prevention. Based on the results of these experiments, the coastal vegetation model is efficient against scouring and beach erosion.

A galactose fermentation bacterium producing lactose from red seaweed, which was known well to compromise the galactose as main reducing sugar, was isolated from button mushroom bed in Buyeo-Gun, Chungchugnamdo province. The lactic acid bacteria MONGB-2 was identified as Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. tolerans by analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence. When the production of lactic acid and acetic acid by L. paracasei MONGB-2 was investigated by HPLC analysis with various carbohydrates, the strain MONGB-2 efficiently convert the glucose and galactose to lactic acid with the yield of 18.86 g/L and 18.23 g/L, respectively and the ratio of lactic acid to total organic acids was 1.0 and 0.91 g/g for both substrates. However, in the case of acetic acid fermentation, other carbohydrates besides galactose and red seaweed hydrolysate could not be totally utilized as carbon sources for acetic acid production by the strain. The lactic acid production from glucose and galactose in the fermentation time courses was gradually enhanced upto 60 h fermentation and the maximal concentration reached to be 16-18 g/L from both substrates after 48 h of fermentation. The initial concentration of glucose and galactose were completely consumed within 36 h of fermentation, of which the growth of cell also was maximum level. In addition, the bioconversion of lactic acid from the red seaweed hydrolysate by L. paracasei MONGB-2 appeared to be about 20% levels of the initial substrates concentration and this results were entirely lower than those of galactose and glucose showed about 60% of conversion. The apparent results showed that L. paracasei MONGB-2 could produce the lactic acid with glucose as well as galactose by the homofermentation through EMP pathway.

Spatial distribution of water flow generated by tidal current was investigated within a Zostera marina(seagrass) bed in Wonpo Bay. Water flow and elevation were observed during the seagrass growing season. The spatial distribution of water flow was numerically estimated using roughness coefficient. Water flow inside the seagrass meadow was compared with the observed values. Velocity in Zostera marina vegetated areas was approximately $25{\sim}84%$ lower than that of unvegetated areas. However, flow direction was the same. Intensity of the flood tide diminished appreciably within the seagrass bed, while its pattern was also affected. It is therefore concluded that water flow is influenced by Zostera marina meadows.

Biodegradable polybutylene succinate (BPS) multifilament were designed to degrade upon disposal by the action of afforestration of Ecklonia cava. Matured thalli of E. cava were collected at Jeju for zoospore collection and the substrate for zoospores were BPS multifilament (12 mm, 500 Td/96). The materials were made as nets of $1\;m^2$ with a cross stripes of 10 cm. The unit biodegradable nets bearing germlings of E. cava was moved into Wando where the place is conducting intensive seaweed cultivation in Korea for 5 months of nursery culture until they grew to 10 cm in length after which the nets were transplanted into the sea bed at Jeju at a depth of 12 m and the algal growth was monitored from May 2007 to December 2008. This is the first instance of using the BPS materials for seaweed afforestation to avoid any environmental problems.

조식동물-해조류 상호작용의 크기 분포를 추정하기 위하여 12종의 조식동물에 대하여 개체 당 일평균 섭식률 (PCGR, per capita grazing rate, g seaweeds/individual/day)을 구하고, 다른 종들의 섭식률을 추정할 수 있는 회귀모형을 만들었다. 조식동물의 생체량과 사제곱근 변환 PCGR은 power curve($y=0.2310x^{0.3290}$)에 적합되었고 모형의 r값은 0.8864였다. 이로부터 조식동물의 PCGR 변동은 생체량과 관계가 있으며, 섭식 효율성은 관찰된 생체량 범위내에서 균일하지 않다는 것이 파악되었다. 따라서 각 종별 생체량 효과가 보정된 PCGR을 추정하였고, 작은 몸체를 갖는 종일수록 보다 효율적인 섭식자인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 서식밀도를 감안한 개체군 별 상호작용(grazing impact, $mg/m^2$)을 계산한 결과, 해조장에 가장 큰 영향을 갖는 개체군은 군소(Aplysia kurodai, 약 $2,513mg/m^2$)인 것으로 나타났고, 다음은 둥근성게(Strongylocentrotus nudus, 약 1,500 mg/)와 새치성게(S. intermedius, $733mg/m^2$) 등인 것으로 나타났다. 단각류 가운데 단위 면적당 밀도가 4,000 개체 이상인 멜리타옆새우류, Elasmopus sp.와 2,000 개체 이상인 가시꼬리육질꼬리옆새우붙이, Jassa falcata의 섭식량은 각각 3.435와 $1.697mg/m^2/day$인 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 추정한 조식동물 군집의 종 조성과 서식 밀도가 동일할 때 상호작용의 총합은 $5,045mg/m^2/day$인 것으로 나타났다. 실험과 모형 연구로부터 성게류와 군소 외에도 적잖은 상호작용이 높은 밀도를 갖는 많은 수의 종들로부터 해조류에 가해지고 있음을 추정할 수 있었다. 성게류의 경우 3 개체/$m^2$의 평균 서식밀도에서 발생하는 섭식량은 국내 천해 양식업의 평균 해조류 생산량(약 5 ton/ha)을 초과하는 것으로 예측되었다. 미소 갑각류 역시 낮은 포식압 조건에서 서식밀도가 증가하면 적잖은 충격(해조류 생산량의 약 16%)을 가할 것으로 예측되었다. 해조장에 서식하는 조식동물의 밀도가 어류에 의해 강도 높게 조절되고 있음을 감안하면, 어류와 조식동물 간 상호작용에 대한 인간의 간섭(어류의 남획 등)은 해조장에 커다란 변화를 유발할 수 있는 잠재력을 가질 것으로 예상된다.

식물플랑크톤은 해양생태계 내에서 일차 생산자로서 먹이그물의 기초를 이루며 해양환경의 특성을 파악하는데 지표생물로서 중요한 역할을 한다. 그리고 연안에서 식물플랑크톤의 종조성은 해양환경의 시공간 변화에 따라 다양하게 나타난다. 그러므로, 여자만에 생육하는 해초 생태계에서 식물플랑크톤의 변동 특성을 파악하고, 환경요인인 영양염, 클로로필, 수온, 염분과 용존산소를 측정하였다. 그 결과 식물플랑크톤의 군집구조는 조사시기 및 장소와 해초의 유무에 따라 차이를 보였다.

Transplantation of Sargassum horneri to natural substrate using the rope seeding method was undertaken. Seeding of S. horneri was grown on net in an indoor tank up to 0.2-0.3 cm in frond length for 2 months, and then transplanted to an architecture tile $(10\times10\;cm)$ with underwater glue and an iron pipe. After two months, number of S. horneri on the tile decreased because of grazing by herbivores. However, S. horneri on the iron pipe grew up to 0.5-2.0 cm in frond length. After 7 months, they rapidly grew up to a frond length of 11.0-203.0 cm with a mean frond length of 122.6 cm. S. horneri grew up to a maximum frond length of 313.0 cm, and mean frond length of 228.0 cm, after 10 months. The artificial S. hornevi beds can be used to clean the seawater and also be utilized as a source of marine biomass as well as for supplying habitat, shelter and spawning beds for fish and invertebrates.
