  • The species diversity of Orchidaceae is believed to be extremely high in Myanmar. Like in other plant groups, little basic inventory work has been done thus far. During floristic surveys conducted in Popa Mountain Park (Mandalay Region), Natma Taung National Park (Chin State), and in the Ywangan area (southwestern Shan State), we encountered two interesting orchid species which were determined to be new generic records in the flora of Myanmar. Thuniopsis cleistogama was previously considered endemic to Yunnan Province (China) and was only known from the type locality. However, here the species is newly reported from two localities in central and western Myanmar. Disperis neilgherrensis is known from several widely scattered localities in tropical and subtropical Asia. This tiny orchid species was discovered in the Ywangan area in the southwestern area of the Shan State of Myanmar. These two species will be valuable additions to the updated checklist of the orchids of Myanmar.

  • Analyses of tidal observations and a numerical model of the $M_2$ and $M_4$ tides in the Uldolmok waterway located at the southwestern tip of the Korean Peninsula are described. This waterway is well known fer its strong tidal flows of up to more than 10 knots at the narrowest part of the channel. Harmonic analysis of the observed water level at five tidal stations reveals dramatic changes in the amplitude and phase of the shallow water constituents at the station near the narrowest part, while survey results show a decreasing trend in local mean sea levels toward the narrow section. It was also observed that the amplitudes of semi-diurnal constituents, $M_2$ and $S_2$ are diminishing toward the narrowest part of the waterway. Two-dimensional numerical modeling shows that the $M_2$ energy flux is dominated by the component coming from the eastern boundary. The $M_2$ energy is inward from both open boundaries and is transported toward the narrow region of the channel, where it is frictionally dissipated or transferred to other constituents due to a strong non-linear advection effect. It is also shown that the $M_4$ generation is strong around the narrow region, and the abrupt decrease in the M4 amplitude in the region is due to a cancellation of the locally generated M4 with the component propagated from open boundaries. The superposition of both propagated and generated M4 contributions also explains the discontinuity of the M4 phase lag in the region. The tide-induced residual sea level change and the regeneration effect of the $M_2$ tide through interaction with $M_4$ are also examined.

  • An overview of the spatial and seasonal patterns of phytobenthic communities is described from the intertidal zone at Hawon-Pando on the southwestern coast of Korea based on quantitative and qualitative estimates of macroalgae. There were considerable variations of macroalgal diversity and cover value with the intertidal levels. Tn general, the number of species decreased with increasing intertidal height. The upper region was dominated by Sargassum thunbergii. S. thunbergii and crustose red algae were dominant in the mid intertidal habitat. In the lower intertidal Corallina pilulifera and crustose red algae were the conspicuous dominants. Macroalgal community structure at Hawon-Pando is discussed in the context of functional-form groups. The Hawon-Pando intertidal is characterized as consisting of a relatively high cover of species assigned to the thick leathery, crustose and jointed calcareous groups, and is distinguished by a paucity of the filamentous group.

  • To estimate absolute transports by advection in the southwestern East Sea (Japan Sea), an inverse method was applied to CTD data obtained in July 1993. The relative velocities are calculated using the thermal wind equation. The inverse model was formulated to obtain a reference velocity based on the mass conservation in each of four vertical layers within a region enclosed by hydrographic sections and the coastal boundary. The flow patterns in the surface layer are clockwise and anti-clockwise in the regions south and northwest of Ulleung Island, respectively, and a strong northward flow appears in between them. In the second layer, the flow fields are generally weak. The inverse calculation yields the southward flow along the coast, and this suggests that the subsurface low salinity water in the Ulleung Basin is supplied by the southward transport along the east coast of Korea.

  • 동해 남서부 해역의 해양생태계에 큰 영향을 미치는 연안용승의 변화를 파악하기 위해 1948년 1월부터 2018년 9월까지의 NCEP/NCAR 재분석자료를 이용하여 용승지수를 계산하였다. 평균 용승지수는 4월부터 8월까지 용승이 발생하는 양의 값이 보이며 7월에 최대 값이 나타났다. 용승지수의 장기 변화는 6월과 7월에 통계적으로 유의미한 감소추세가 나타났으며, 5, 6, 7월 용승지수의 합도 통계적으로 유의미한 감소 경향을 보였다. 한반도 주변의 대기압 분석을 통하여 용승지수의 변화 추세는 동해남부해역을 기준으로 북서쪽 영역($35-50^{\circ}N$, $114-129^{\circ}E$)의 기압 변화 추세의 영향이라는 것을 밝혔다. 최근 7년간(2012년-2018년)의 용승지수 분석결과 2017년 7월에 용승지수가 표준편차의 3배 이상 높은 것을 발견하였다. 이것은 중국 북동쪽 지방에 평년과 다르게 저기압이 발달하였고 북태평양고기압이 일본과 대만 사이까지 영향을 주어 동해 남부에 큰 기압 차이가 발생했기 때문이었다. 반면에 평년에 비하여 북쪽의 저기압과 남쪽의 고기압의 영향이 적었던 2018년 7월은 용승지수가 음의 값이었다. 동해남부 연안용승지수는 기후변화에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보이고 경년변동이 커서 생태환경에 대한 영향을 파악하기 위해서는 지속적인 모니터링이 필요하다.

  • We investigated the characteristics of the thermohaline structure and phytoplankton community from the southwestern areas of Jeju to the nothern areas of Taiwan in the Ease China Sea, in June 2004. According to the analysis of a T-S diagram, three characteristic of water masses were identified. We classified them into the mixed water mass by the Chiness continental coastal waters and Yellow Sea cold water (Region A), Chinese continental coastal waters (Region B) and Taiwan warm current (Region C). Region A was characterized by low temperature, low salinity, high density and high Chl-a concentration. Region B was characterized by high temperature, low salinity, low density and high Chl-a and Region C was characterized high temperature, high salinity, low density and low Chl-a concentration. The phytoplankton community identified a total of 56 species belonging to 31 genera. The dominant species was mainly dinoflagellates, Gymnodinium breve, Scrippsiella trochoidea, Ceratium fusus, Prororcentrum triestinum, centric diatoms, Chaetoceros lorenzianus, Leptocylindrus danicus, Proboscia alata, Skeletonema costatum and pennate diatoms, Pseudonitzschia pungens, Cylidrotheca closterium. Standing crops of phytoplakton fluctuated between $0.1{\times}10^2$ cells/L and $5.7{\times}10^4$ cells/L by dominance of dinoflagellates. In the phytoplankton community, the Region A was characterized by the various species composition in 39 species, the dominint species with di-atomes, Pn. pungen, Ch. lorenzianus and standing crops from 6.9 cells/$m\ell$ to 56.6 cells/$m\ell$, Region B by the various species composition in 37 species, the dominant species with dinoflagellates, G.breve, S. trochoidea and standing crops from 4.6 cells/$m\ell$ to 26.7 cells/$m\ell$, and the Region C by low species number with 28 species, the dominant species with one dinoflagellate, S.trochoidea and one diatom, L.danicus and very low standing crops from 0.1 cells/$m\ell$ to 5.7 cells/$m\ell$. Phytoplankton productivity in the East China Sea was controlled by Chinese continental coastal waters which include a high concentrations of nutrients.

  • Eleven sorghun-sudangrass hybrids have been recommended as the government recommended forage cultivars, however, their forage performance and quality have mostly been tested at two regions, such as Suweon in the Middle Northwestern Coast Region and Sunghwan in the Middle Southwestern Coast Region. Therefore, the objective of this experiment was to retest the forage performance and quality of eleven government recommended sorghum-sudangrass hybrids(TE haygrazer, 988. TE haygrazer-R, SX-17, NC + 855, 855F, GW9110G, G83F, Sordan 79, Speed feed and Jumbo) at five regions, such as Icheon in the Middle Northern Inland, Suweon in the Middle Northwestern Coast, Sunghwan in the Middle Southwestern Coast, Keongsan in the Keongpook Inland and Kwangju in the Southern Inland, 1993 and 1995. Among the eleven hybrids tested, 'NC + 855' gave the highest forage yield at all regions when averaged over the two-year period, but others varied by region. 'NC + 855' was the highest yielding at Icheon, Keongsan and Kwangju, G83F was highest at Suweon and 855F was highest at Sunghwan. 'Jumbo' (headless type) was generally higher in forage quality than others, but at both Suweon and Icheon, 'NC + 855' and '855F' were higher quality than others. As the results of the experiment, 'TE haygrazer', 'NC + 855' , G83F and 'GW9110G1 at Icheon, 'G83F' and 'Sordan 79' at Suweon, 'NC + 855' and '855F' at Sunghwan, '988' and 'NC + 855' at Keongsan, and 'TE haygrazer-R' , 'NC + 855', 'GW9110G' and 'G83F' at Kwangju might be preferable to other hybrids because they have higher forage yield.

  • The Saccharomyces cerevisiae MGMT gene encodes a O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase that protects cells from mutation or death by DNA alkylating agents. Using an in vitro transcription system, we analyzed its promoter region to find regulatory elements for transcription initiation. DNase I footprinting and a transcription assay showed that a functional TATA box, 5'-TGATATAGCA-3', is located in the region spanning from -25 to -34. We also found one upstream repressing sequence (URS), -333 to -213, by promoter deletion and competition analysis. Gel mobility shift assays and Southwestern blot analysis using URS region indicate specific complex formations. These results indicate that several cis-acting and trans-acting elements might be involved in the transcriptional regulation of the S. cerevisiae MGMT gene.
