Abstract

Hatching date and early growth of Pacific cod Gadus macrocephalus were estimated by examination of otolith microstructure of Pacific cod juveniles collected in Jinhae Bay of Korea from May to June, 2008. Water temperature during the main spawning time ranged from 7 to $9^{\circ}C$ according to the geographic distribution of temperature measured from November to May between 2006 and 2009. The spawners were collected from December to February between 2006 and 2008, and the gonadosomatic index of spawners was larger in females than in males, showing a peak in January. Total length of juveniles ranged from 37.5 to 94.9 mm ($63.2{\pm}11.0mm$; mean${\pm}$SD). The number of daily growth increments in juvenile otoliths were on average $102{\pm}15$ in May 17 samples, $119{\pm}16$ in May 29 ones and $116{\pm}18$ in June 3 ones. Hatching dates estimated from the number of daily growth increments ranged from late December to mid-March, showing the peak between late January and mid-February. Daily growth in total length (TL, mm) can be adjusted to the Gompertz curve: $TL_t=123.2{\exp}\{-{\exp}[-0.0165(t-81.8)]\}$ ($r^2$=0.93, n=273).

진해만 대구의 산란기 수온, 부화일과 초기성장을 추정하였다. 2006년부터 2009년 사이 11월에서 5월까지 매월 8개의 정점의 수온을 측정하여 분석한 결과 주 산란기의 수온은 $7{\sim}9^{\circ}C$였다. 2006~2008년의 주산란기인 12월에서 2월사이 산란어의 생식소숙도지수(GSI)는 수컷에 비하여 암컷이 유의하게 컸으며, 1월에 최대값을 보였다. 2008년 5~6월에 채집된 치어의 전장은 37.5~94.9 mm ($63.2{\pm}11.0mm$; mean${\pm}$SD) 범위였으며, 이석의 부화 이후 일륜수의 평균(${\pm}$SD)은 5월 17일 표본에서는 $102{\pm}15$, 5월 29일에는 $119{\pm}16$, 6월 3일에는 $116{\pm}18$였다. 이석의 일륜수로부터 추정한 부화일은 12월 하순에서 3월 중순이었으며, 주부화 시기는 1월 하순에서 2월 중순이었다. 부화 이후 일령(t)에 대한 전장(TL, mm)의 성장은 Gompertz 성장식, $TL_t=123.2{\exp}\{-{\exp}[-0.0165(t-81.814)]\}$ ($r^2$=0.93, n=273)로 나타낼 수 있었다.
