Abstract

The distribution characteristics of the eggs and larvae of anchovy Engraulis japonica, and environmental factors in the southern coastal waters of Korea were investigated from May to August 2009. Eggs and larvae were mainly distributed in the waters off Naro Island, Namhae Island and Saryang Island. High densities of eggs and larvae in temperatures of $19.0{\sim}24.0^{\circ}C$, salinites of 33.0~34.4 psu, DO of 6.05~8.13 mg/L and chlorophyll-a $1.2{\sim}2.3{\mu}g/L$ were observed. Water temperature in the coastal region was higher than that in the open sea, while salinity was lower. Evidence of sea water intrusion toward Sori Island and Maemul Island, and an inner-water intrusion from Yeoja Bay, Gamak Bay and Gwangyang Bay were observed. High densities of eggs in early developmental stage occurred in waters off Naro Island, Dolsan Island and Namhae Island, but high densities of eggs in a later developmental stage occurred in waters off Yokji Island and Maemul Island. During the survey period, the proportion of later developmental-stage eggs was higher in the eastern part of the study area.

2009년 5월부터 8월까지 한국 남해안의 여수~통영 연안역에서 멸치 난자치어 분포특성에 대해 조사하였다. 멸치 난의 밀도는 6월에 가장 높았고, 자치어는 7월에 높게 나타났으며 주 분포해역은 나로도, 남해도 및 사량도 주변해역에서 수온 $19.0{\sim}24.0^{\circ}C$, 염분 33.0~34.4 psu, 용존 산소 6.05~8.13 mg/L, 클로로필 a $1.2{\sim}2.3{\mu}g/L$ 범위에 분포밀도가 높게 나타났다. 수온은 외해역보다 연안역에서 고수온을 나타냈고, 염분은 연안역에서 낮고 외해역에서 높게 나타났으며 연안수의 유입은 조사해역 북쪽의 여자만, 가막만, 광양만 등지에서 유입되고, 외해수의 연안유입은 나로도 및 매물도 남쪽 외해측에서 유입되는 것으로 조사되었다. 여름철 국지적 강우에 따른 다량의 섬진강 하천수 유입은 주변해역의 염분을 감소시키면서 남쪽해역으로 확장되어 산란 및 부화된 난자치어들을 외해역 내지 다른 해역으로 이송시키는 요인으로 판단된다. 발생 초기 난들은 (I~IV) 나로도, 돌산도 및 남해도 주변 해역에 주로 분포한 반면, 발생 후기 난은 (V~IX) 욕지도 및 매물도 주변해역에서 고밀도로 분포하였고, 부화직전 후기 단계의 난과 자치어 대형개체들은 조사해역 동쪽방향으로 갈수록 출현율이 높게 나타났다.
