To find out the seasonal variation of species composition and distribution of fish eggs and larvae in the western part of Jeju Island, investigations were carried out with plankton net during five different months from September 2004 to August 2005. The mean abundance of fish eggs and larvae showed a maximum values in summer (August). During the survey period, total 59 species (51 genus, 26 families and 10 orders) of fish larvae were identified. Among the 10 orders, Perciformes (41 species, 15 families), Scorpaeniformes (7 species, 2 families) and Gasterosteiformes (2 species, 2 families) were the dominant species in this study area. The number of species was higher in high water temperature period than in low one, showing a peak in August as 25 species, and the lowest in May as 6 species. Engraulis japonicus, Scomber japonicus and Scombridae spp. which were migratory fish species occurred abundantly in summer. On the other hand, Sebastiscus marmoratus and Sebastes inermis which were sedentary fish species occurred abundantly in winter.

This paper presents the seasonal variation of distribution and flushing time of the fresh water in Suyoung Bay based on the monthly observation from May 1989 through April 1990 and Pusan City Report of Suyoung Bay. Most of Suyoung river water was trapped inside of the bay west of the Dong-Baek Island located. Low salinity water lies dominantly on the right hand side of the Suyong river. Salinity structure of the bay is the well mixed type in summer and the partially mixed type in other season. The fresh water fraction varied in an exponetial manner from unity at the head of bay toward a value of zero at the its mouth. The calculated average flushing time during a year was about 10-15days. About 1.5 days was in summer because the strong fresh water discharge from the river was dominated in the bay.

The Arctic environment is sensitive to change of sea-ice distribution. The increase and decrease of sea ice work to an index of globe warming progress. In order to predict the progress of hereafter earth global warming, continuous monitoring regarding a change of the sea ice area in the Arctic should be performed. The remote sensing based on an artificial satellite is most effective on the North Pole. The sea ice observation using a passive microwave sensor has been continued from 1970's. The determination of sea ice extent and ice type is one of the great successes of the passive microwave imagers. In this paper, to investigate the seasonal and inter-annual variation of sea-ice distribution we used here the sea ice data from July 2002 to May 2009 around the Arctic within $60^{\circ}N$ for the AMSR-E 12.5km sea-ice concentration, a passive microwave sensor. From an early analysis of these data, the arctic sea-ice extent has been steadily decreasing at a rate of about 3.1%, accounting for about $2{\times}10^5\;km^2$, which was calculated for the sea-ice cover reaching its minimum extent at the end of each summer. It is also revealed that this trend corresponds to a decline in the multi-year ice that is affected mainly by summer sea surface and air temperature increases. The extent of younger and thinner (first-year) ice decreased to the 2007 minimum, but rapidly recovered in 2008 and 2009 due to the dramatic loss in 2007. Seasonal variations of the sea-ice extent show significant year-to-year variation in the seasons of January-March in the Barents and Labrador seas and August-October in the region from the East Siberian and Chukchi seas to the North Pole. The spatial distribution of multi-year ice (7-year old) indicates that the perennial ice fraction has rapidly shrunk recently out of the East Siberian, Laptev, and Kara seas to the high region of the Arctic within the last seven years and the Northeast Passage could become open year-round in near future.

Feeding habits of Leiognathus nuchalis collected from the eelgrass bed in Kwangyang Bay from January 1994 to December 1994 were studied. Leiognathus nuchalis was a carnivore which mainly consumed copepods and crab larvae. Its diets included small quantities of polychaetes, amphipods, mysids, caridean shrimps. It showed ontogenetic changes in feeding habits. In an initial feeding stage, copepods were major food organisms. However, crab larvae and polychaetes were heavily selected with increasing fish size. Although copepods and crab larvae were major prey organisms for all seasons, the relative proportion of these two food items changed with season.

인천-제주 정기여객선에 수온, 클로로필 및 탁도계 등의 센서를 설치하여 해양환경 모니터링 시스템을 구축하였으며, 여객선 항로를 따라 2001년부터 2004년까지 18회에 걸쳐 자동관측과 함께 20-30분 간격으로 30여개의 정점에서 해수를 채수하여 분석하였다. 연구의 목적은 채수된 해수를 직접 분석하여 여객선에 설치된 자동측정 센서가 신뢰성 있는 자료를 생산하는지 비교 분석하는 것과 서해 한반도 연안의 해수특성을 전체적으로 이해함으로서 계절적인 변동을 파악하는 것이다. 2001-2003년 초까지 사용된 YSI 센서는 수온, 염분, 탁도와 클로로필 농도 등을 종합적으로 측정할 수 있는 멀티센서이나, 설치하여 운용해 본 결과 정밀도에서 많은 문제점이 발생하였다. 따라서 2004년 이후 클로로필과 탁도 자동 측정을 위한 단일 센서들로 교체되었으며 이들 센서는 멀티센서 보다 좋은 결과를 보였다. 비록 자동측정 장치에 문제는 있었으나, 18회에 걸친 서해 연안의 실시간 모니터링을 통하여 해수환경의 계절별 특성을 이해할 수 있었다. 부유퇴적물의 경우, 경기만과 목포 주변의 남쪽 해안은 농도가 모든 계절에서 높게 나타났으며 특히 가을 겨울철에 가장 높은 값을 나타냈다. 클로로필의 농도도 경기만 중심지역과 남쪽 해안에서 여름과 가을철에 걸쳐 0.4 - 6.0 $mg/m^3$ 정도의 분포를 보였으나 겨울철에는 2.6 $mg/m^3$ 미만으로 나타났다.

The zooplankton of Chonsu Bay was collected and analyzed to study the seasonal variation in species composition and abundance, and to estimated the total annual production of Copepoda. With a pronounce seasonal fluctuations in species composition and abundance, Paracalanus indicus and Corycaeus affinis predominated during summer and fall, while larger species such as Centropages abdominalis and Acartia dominated in spring. Zooplankton abundance showed the minimum in March, then increased and reached the maximum in August. It is suggested that seasonal variation of zooplankton as well as temperature. Being productive compared with other areas, the estimated total production of Copepoda was 134 g/100m$^3$/yr (dry weight).

Phenological study of Enteromorpha compressa was conducted monthly from May 1990 to April 1991 in tide pools at three tidal zones of Paekpori, the southern coast of Korea. Although water temperature did not differ significantly among all tidal zones investigated, absence of macroscopic plants during summer was correlated with increasing water temperature. Salinity and suspended particulate matter (SPM) showed statistical differences between high and middle tidal zones, as well as high and low tidal zones. But, the differences in salinity or SPM among tidal zones did not comparatively coincide with the phenological pattern. The frequencies of occurrence of microscopic and macroscopic samples at high tidal zone were always lesser than or equal to those at other zones. At high tidal zone individuals completed the life history at least twice in a year, surviving for about four months, whereas at low and middle tidal zones they completed it once in a year, surviving for about six months.months.

Feeding habits of Pholis nebulosa collected from a eelgrass bed in Kwangyang Bay from January 1994 to December 1994 were studied. Pholis nebulosa was a carnivore which mainly consumed epiphytal amphipods. Its diets included minor quantities of caridean shrimps, isopods, copepods, tanaids and polychaetes. It showed ontogenetic changes in feeding habits. In an initial feeding stage, copepods were major food organisms. However, gammarid and caprellid amphipods were heavily selected with increasing fish size. Although gammarid and caprellid amphipods were major prey organisms for all seasons, the relative proportion of these two food items changed with season.

하구에서의 흐름은 하천의 담수와 바다에서부터 유입되는 염수, 조석, 파랑 등으로 인해 복잡한 흐름구조와 혼합 양상을 보인다. 특히 만 내에 하천이 있을 경우 만의 해류특성은 하구에서의 혼합과 이송에 지배적인 영향을 미치며, 하천에서부터 방류되는 입자들은 만의 해류특성 따라 만에서의 체류시간과 이송이 결정된다. 잔차류 특성에 의한 순 물질 플럭스의 방향과 조석비대칭에 따른 하구에서의 퇴적 형태들이 결정되며, 이로 인해 하구에서의 퇴적물 퇴적 및 물질의 집적 위치, 하구 인근과 만에서의 환경변화에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 만 내에서의 혼합과 입자의 이송확산, 하천 담수의 영향역 등과 같은 만과 하천의 흐름 특성을 이해하는 것은 연안 및 하구의 환경 및 관리에 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 영일만과 형산강을 대상으로 계절변화에 따른 영일만 내 흐름과 형산강 하구에서의 퇴적양상에 대해 수치모의를 통해 수행하였다. 수치모델로는 천수방정식으로 준 3차원 유동해석을 하는 Delft-3D Flow와 파랑모형인 SWAN 모델을 결합하여 형산강 하구와 영일만의 유동을 해석하였다. 상류개방경계는 형산강하구 9 km, 하류개방경계는 영일만 외해 50 km로 설정하였고, 경계조건은 대상지역의 관측소 자료와 전지구 모형자료를 결합하여 구성하였다. 또한, 라그랑쥬 입자추적모델을 통해 형산강 상류에서 유입한 입자들의 영일만 내 체류 시간과 집적 위치를 평가하였다.

연구지역은 좁은 면적에 비하여 800m 이상의 지형기복을 보이며, 계곡과 하천 충적층을 따라 마을이 발달된 전형적인 수계 상류의 농촌지역이다. 주요 상수원은 천부지하수이며, 농업용으로는 하천수를 이용한다. 지표수는 연구지역의 소유역(A, B)간 계절별 수질차이를 보이나, 지하수의 경우 유역간 및 계절별 변동이 상대적으로 작게 나타난다. B 소유역의 하류부에서는 지질매체의 영향으로 보이는 Fe, Mn, Zn 농도의 부화현상이 나타났으며, 이는 방이리층과 길왕리층을 기반암으로 하는 지역에 대한 전체적인 지하수질 조사가 필요함을 지시한다. 국지적인 수질오염원으로 과거에 개발되었던 폐금광이 존재하며, 이로 인한 산성수의 발생도 인지되었다.
