Costal fisheries use small boat. The boats are frequently substituted with newly made boat or proper boat. When the boat which is substituted with another one after the fixed date for compensation is estimated for fisheries loss by public project, it is matter that which boat is the object for estimating average catch of fish. There are three ways in practical business. They are based on the date of spot probe, the date of conference for compensation and fixed date for compensation. In case of applying the first and the second ways, as the object of compensation is not fixed, there is problem that estimated result can be changed depending on changing boat tons even after the date of spot probe and the fixed date for compensation. Most of all, these ways are against Attached Form No.4 of the Enforcement Ordinance of Fisheries Law which regulate to calculate average catch of fish applying result of fishery for retroactively counted 3 years from the year before the year in which administrative measure day is. The other side, in applying boat tons based on the fixed date for compensation, estimated result of compensation will not change even boat substituted after the fixed date for compensation. Even though applying tons based on the fixed date for compensation, a problem still remains. If the boat get bigger after the fixed date for compensation, the then boat size must be applied for calculating average catch. But the boat get smaller, the changed boat size must be applied. Because changed small boat would be damaged less than the previous boat. And decrease in catch by changing boat into small one is not due to the project but due to the personal responsibility. This will help to increase objectivity and reliance on the compensation result. As the other objects are fixed based on the fixed date for compensation in the Act on Acquisition and Compensation of Land and Others for Public Project, it can be balanced with other object.

To investigate the impingement of fish on the traveling screens, fishes were collected from the traveling screens at Hadong Power Plant through the year of 1999. A total of 84 fish species were collected during the study period. The dominant species were Leiognathus nuchalis, Engraulis japonicus, Trichiurus lepturus and Takifugu niphobles. These four species accounted for 78.2% of the total number of individuals and 52.0% of total biomass collected. The number of fish species, number of individuals, biomass and species diversity indices fluctuated with the seasons. The number of species and biomass were high in April and August, and the number of individuals was high in April and July. However, the number of fish species, number of individuals and biomass of fishes showed low values in winter.

The taxonomic revision of the flounders of the suborder Pleuronectoidei was made based on the specimens collected from the coasts of the Korean Peninsula from 1989 to 1993. The flounders of Korea are composed 34 species belonging to 24 genera and 4 families, and the keys to species, genera and families are provided with redescriptions and distributions. Three species of the flounders are found to be new to Korea : Tarphops oligolepis (Bleeker) of the family Paralichthyidae, Parabothus kiensis (Tanaka) of the family Bothidae and Pleuronectes pallasii Steindachner of the family Pleuronectidae. Laeops lanceolata, previously recorded in the Korean fish list, was found to be synonym of L. kitaharai. The fishes of the families Paralichthyidae and Bothidae were distributed in the Yellow Sea and the southern coast of Korea, while most of the flounder species of the family Pleuronectidae except Limanda yokohamae, Eopsetta grigorjewi, and Pleuronichthys cornutus were found along the eastern coast of Korea. It appears that Korean flounders are similar to those of Chinese and Japanese faunas which include tropical and temperate species without endemics.

The diet of Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) in the East Sea, Yellow Sea and Jinhae Bay was studied by analysis of stomach contents. In total, 518 individuals ranging from 15.5 to 77.0 cm standard length SL were analyzed. Prey organisms of the Pacific cod in the East Sea consistedof Caridea, Cephalopoda and Pisces, whereas In the Yellow Sea, the main food items of Pacific cod were similar to those of East Sea Pacific cod except for Cephalopoda. Interestingly, the stomach contents of Pacific cod in Jinhae Bay is mainly Pisces, which is in contrast to those of the two different coastal areas, the East Sea and the Yellow Sea. Although various species of food were eaten by smaller Pacific cod, both Caridea and Pisces were mainly taken by larger Pacific cod. Consequently, the diet of Pacific cod within acertain size is mainly influenced by prey abundance and prey-size spectrum in its habitat. Higher stomach emptiness of Pacific cod in Jinhae Bay might indicate that fully matured Pacific cod temporally stop feeding during their spawning period.

As Carangoides ferdau was previously reported based on its underwater photograph, morphological descriptions have been incomplete up to the presence in Korea. On the base of two samples collected at the coast of Jeju island, morphological characters of C. ferdau are described in detail. This species is characterized by having the forepart of second dorsal fin much prolonged, 7~8 transverse dark bands on body, and snout length almost equal to eye diameter. It is morphologically very similar to C. orthogroammus, but is easily distinguished in having transverse dark bands instead of yellow spot on the body of C. orthogroammus. Phylogenetic relationships based on the mitochondrial cytochrome b (1,141 base pairs) sequences shows that C. ferdau is closely related to C. orthogroammus, and C. dinema also has a sister group relationship with C. ablongus. Both genetic distances (p-distances) are 8.2%, respectively.

The feeding habits of Chaenogobius annularis were studied based on gut contents analysis of 315 individuals, collected from September 2014 to August 2015 in the tidepools at the intertidal zone of Tongyeong, Korea. The size of C. annularis ranged from 17.0 to 54.0 mm in standard length (SL). C. annularis mainly consumed copepods (especially Tigriopus japonicus). Its diets included seaweeds, cirripeds, mysids and amphipods. C. annularis showed ontogenetic changes in feeding habits. Small individuals fed mainly on copepods. As body size increased, the portion of seaweed increased, whereas the consumption of copepods decreased.

The quantitative analysis on the pollutants loads (PL) has hardly been carried out and calibration-verification process of the water quality modeling has been conducted under the restricted condition because the observed PL data are not sufficient. In this study, the PLs were measured at the 22 streams and the effluents site in the Masan-Changwon watersheds. The release rates from sediment were also measured at the three points in the Bay. The PLs from the Masan and Changwon cities and from multi-port diffuser(effluents discharge) amount to 80∼90% and 20∼25% of the PL in Chinhae-Masan Bay, respectively. As the amounts of the sediment released pollutants are the same order of the PLs form the watersheds, the pollutants released from the sediment is one of the main factors that might cause the seasonal variation of the water quality, which is degraded in summer and relatively good in winter.

A modeling system for three-dimensional flow (FEMOS) has been developed and applied to simulate the tidal currents of Asan Bay. The system can consider tidal flats changing with time and uses a finite element method that can adapt coastline change effectively. The simulation results for Asan Bay with large tidal flats, shallow water depth and high tidal range showed good agreements with the observed currents of long-term variations at the medium layer and short-term variations of vertical profiles. Based on the simulated tidal currents, the horizontal distributions of bottom shear stress were calculated and showed close relation with the change of bottom topography. The system can be used widely to study coastal circulation in the coastal region with complex geography.

In order to evaluate the effect of dry-wet treatment on well developed tidal flats along the complex coastal line in the western part of Korean Peninsula, we adopted a finite element tidal hydrodynamic simulation model, ADCIRC incorporating newly suggested dry-wet option and applied it to Chonbuk coastal area and Keum river estuary. Model comparison with observed current data by RMS error in the Chonbuk area shows very good agreement within 1cm/sec of tidal velocity difference and 3％ of error to maximum tidal currents. However there is not seen any significant advantages in dry-wet treatment. For the tidal volume tests in the Keum river estuary, the differences are satisfied within 5％ nevertheless of dry-wet treatment but in a near cross section it marks over 20％. However both results are almost same in tidal residual tests. Thus it can be concluded that dry-wet option is not always necessary in the simulation of long-term dispersion analysis.

Analysis on the temporal variation of the stratification is carried out by using the continuous water temperature and salinity data observed in the coastal monitoring buoy in Mikawa Bay, Japan. The main analysis results are as follows. The stratification pattern have an obvious and dominant 1-year period variation and the occurrence frequency (days) are exponentially decreased as the stratification intensity (SI) defined as the density difference between surface and bottom layers linearly increases. The frequency distribution function of the SI is presumably close to the log-normal function type or exponential function type. From the water temperature and salinity scatter diagram analysis, the line and loop type patterns are shown in the bottom and surface layers, respectively. In addition, the analysis of the SI estimation show that the error bound in case of using the weekly-monitoring data is about 4.45 times greater than that in case of using the continuous (daily) monitoring data.
