This paper proposes Snapping Shrimp Noise (SSN) detection and corrupted Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) reconstruction methods to increase Bit Error Rate (BER) performance when OFDM transmitted signal is corrupted by impulsive SSNs in underwater acoustic communications. The proposed detection method utilizes multilayer wavelet packet decomposition for detecting impulsive and irregularly concentrated and SSN energy in specific frequency bands of SSN, and the proposed reconstruction scheme uses iterative decision directed-subcarrier reconstruction to recover corrupted OFDM signals using multiple carrier characteristics. Computer simulations were executed to show receiver operating characteristics curve for the detection performance and BER for the reconstruction. The practical ocean experiment of SAVEX 15 demonstrated that the proposed method exhibits a better detection performance compared with conventional detection method and improves BER by 250% and 1230% for uncoded and coded data, respectively, compared with the conventional reconstruction scheme.

The first three zoeal stages of fat-handed snapping shrimp Synalpheus tumodomanus (Paulson, 1875) are described and illustrated in detail based on laboratory-reared material. Morphological comparison is made with previous description of S. tumidomanus from Indian waters. Three segmented scale of the antenna and the length of the endopod of antenna readily distinguish the first zoeas of S. tumidomanus from those of S. neomeris, the other known species of the genus Synalpheus from Korea.

Ambient noise was measured for 3 hours on May, 2001 at a site of 20 m water depth in the Korean coast of the Yellow Sea. During the measurement, the strong underwater sound assuming by marine life was continually observed. The spectrum level of this sound was very high compared to that of underwater ambient noise over the frequency range from 1 to 20 kHz. Therefore, this underwater sound can continually affect the ambient noise level. In this study, the source of the underwater sound was investigated. The snapping shrimp was estimated as reliable source. It was confirmed through comparison with experimental results described in previously literatures. It was also confirmed through analysis of snapping shrimp sound measured under laboratory conditions.

In this paper, we propose a Linear Prediction (LP) analysis-based feature for detecting Snapping Shrimp (SS) Noise (SSN) in underwater acoustic data. SS is a species that creates high amplitude signals in shallow, warm waters, and its frequent and loud sound is a major source of noise. The proposed feature takes advantage of the characteristic of SSN, which is sudden and rapidly disappearing, by using LP analysis to detect the exact noise interval and reduce the effects of SSN. The error between the predicted and measured value is large and results in effective SSN detection. To further improve performance, a constant false alarm rate detector is incorporated into the proposed feature. Our evaluation shows that the proposed methods outperform the state-of-the-art MultiLayer-Wavelet Packet Decomposition (ML-WPD) in terms of receiver operating characteristic curve and Area Under the Curve (AUC), with the LP analysis-based feature achieving a higher AUC by 0.12 on average and lower computational complexity.

Alpheid shrimp are found worldwide in temperate and tropical waters. They live in burrows in sandy and muddy bottoms and also in crevices of rocks and coral reefs. The genus Alpheus is the most diverse group of alpheid shrimp. Continuous taxonomic study on shrimps collected from Korean waters revealed that an alpheid shrimp collected from Daesambudo Island was identified as Alpheus compressus. This species belongs to the brevirostris group of the genus Alpheus and is distinguished from other known species of the genus Alpheus in Korea by the laterally compressed body. Korean Alpheus fauna now consists of 15 species of five species groups.

This study investigated species identification and labeling compliance of 48 shrimp products sold in the Korean online markets. Species identification was conducted using the standard DNA barcoding method, using the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene. The obtained sequences were compared with those deposited in the NCBI GenBank and BOLD Systems databases. Additionally, phylogenetic analysis was performed to further verify the identified shrimp species. Consequently, 16 shrimp species were identified, including Penaeus vannamei, Pandalus borealis, Palaemon gravieri, Leptochela gracilis, Penaeus monodon, Pleoticus muelleri, Metapenaeopsis dalei, Euphausia pacifica, Lebbeus groenlandicus, Trachypenaeus curvirostris, Argis lar, Metanephrops thomsoni, Metapenaeopsis barbata, Alpheus japonicus, Penaeus chinensis, and Mierspenaeopsis hardwickii. The most prevalent species was Penaeus vannamei, found in 45.8% of the analyzed products. A significant mislabeling rate of 72.9% was found; however, upon excluding generic names such as shrimp, the mislabeling rate reduced to 10.4%. The mislabeling rate was higher in highly-processed products (89.3%) compared with that in minimally-processed products (50%). No correlation was found between the country of origin and mislabeling rate. The results of this study provide crucial data for future monitoring of shrimp products and improving the labeling of shrimp species in Korea.

The genus Athanas is a member of alpheid shrimps living in temperate and tropical waters worldwide. Species of the genus Athanas are small and inhabit coral reefs, rock or muddy bottoms. As a result of continuous taxonomic research on shrimps collected from Korean waters, Athanas parvus is newly added to Korean fauna through the description of adult form. Athanas parvus is distinguished from A. japonicus by the biunguiculated dactyli of third, fourth and fifth pereopods and spines on ischium of first pereopod. The Korean Alpheidae fauna now consists of nine genera and 27 species including two species of the genus Athanas.
