This study was conducted to obtain the basic information to increase the practical use of soil survey data through the subdividing of lava shapes with soil sequences due to different elevations in Jeju. The numbers of soil series of lava topography had occupied many of whole soil series in Jeju. When its topography subdivide, it give more detailed soil information. The obtained results are as follows; The lava topography to subdivide lava topography were studied with 38 soil series according to elevation in Jeju. Division of elevation are less than 50m, 50m to 200m, and 200m to 400m and more than 400m. Name the depending on elevation, less than 50m is called lower part of lava, 50m to 200m is called middle part of lava, and 200m to 400m and more than 400m are called upper part of lava. The characteristics of lava subdivide are as follows; soil family texture of lower part of lava is fine silty to clayey, drainage classes are various, average of available soil depth is 75.3cm, average of gravely contents are 11.6%, average of slopeness is 7.2%, limiting factor are various and soil order are various. soil family texture of middle part of lava is fine silty to coarse silty, drainage classes are well to very well, average of available soil depth is 65.9cm, average of gravely contents are 14.7%, average of slopeness is 11.3%, limiting factor are ashy and soil order are Andisols and Inceptisols. Soil family texture of upper part of lave is fine silty, drainage classes are well, average of available soil depth is 72.8cm, average of gravely contents are 16.0%, average of slopeness is 14.9%, limiting factor are ashy and skeletal, and order are Andisols.

Macrobenthos were collected in each season by SCUBA diving to investigate the benthic faunal assemblages in the coastal water of Chagwido from September 2004 to August 2005. A total of 201 macrobenthos identified, 74 species (37.2%) of Mollusca were found; 43 species of Arthropoda (19.2%); 34 species of Cnidaria (16.7%) and others including 18 species of Porifera (9.8%). Mean density and biomass were estimated to be 455 individual/$m^2$ and 15,565.0 $g/m^2$, respectively. Whereas annelids was predominant in biomass (1,558.8 g), gastropods were the most dominant faunal group in terms of abundance (5,391 individuals) and the number of species. The dominant species were Trochus sacellus, Batillus cornutus, Pagurus gracilipes, and Cantharus cecillei. The seasonal variation of the number of species and individual Mollusca and Arthropoda was observed. There was a slow increase in spring, the peak in summer, and a slow decrease in autumn and winter. The dominance index was the highest in Gosan and lowest in Yongdang. The biodiversity indice (H') were 1.760-3.497 in each station. Mean biodiversity index was 2.858 (H'). The diversity index, the eveness index (E'), and the dominance index (R) were 3.218-3.743, 0.648-0.720, 17.690-22.826, respectively, in each station.

Physical oceanographic environments in the coastal sea of Chung-Moon located in the south coast of Cheju Island, Korea, where water pollutions by growing tourism complex possibly start to influence on the ecological system, are studied with hydrographic data observed monthly during July 1997 to June 2000. Winter and summer characteristics are shown in December to April and June to October, respectively, and transitional characteristics are shown in May and November. Waters show 14{\sim}16^{\circ}C$ and 34${\sim}$34.7 psu in winter and $15{\sim}27^{\circ}C$ and 32${\sim}$34.3 psu in summer. It tells that Tsushima water distributes in the whole column in winter and in the lower layer in summer, and Yangtze coastal water appears in the surface water in summer. When the influence of Yangtze coastal water is strong, salinities below 30psu are shown. Stratification is formed in the depth of about 20 m from June to October, so that it is not shown in the near shore stations, of which the depth is about10 m. Isotherms and isohalines sometimes tend to be perpendicular to the coast line in the surface, which seems to show influences from the steam power plant near St. 1 and the sewage disposal plant near St. 3. During the observation period, temperatures in St. 1 are a little higher than those in St. 2 and St. 3 except for a couple of months in summer and salinities in St. 3 are mostly a little lower than those in St. 1 and St. 2. Their effects seem to be no more than $0.4^{\circ}C$ in a distance of 300 m and no more than 0.1 psu within a distance of 30 m.

The yellow tea thrips, Scirtothrips dorsalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), has been regarded as a minor pest on citrus on Jeju Island. However, the damage of yellow tea thrips has gradually increased since 2007. This study was conducted to develop a forecasting model for generation peak time of S. dorsalis by using degree-days. Simple linear regression analysis was applied to determine the relationship between the generation number (x, dependent variable) and degree-days (y, independent variable). As a result, two regression models were established: citrus-based model (y = 310.9x + 69.0, $r^2$=0.99) and green tea-based model (y = 285.7x + 84.1, $r^2$=0.99). The models was fitted by independent data sets obtained from 2013 and evaluated using the technique of RSS (residual sum of square) and ${\chi}^2$-test. The green tea based-model showed a good fitting ability. The discrepancy between model outputs and actual data, and the practical application of models were discussed.

Effects of substrate types (bedrock and boulder habitat) on the community structures of benthic biota (macroalgae, macrobenthos) were monthly examined at Sinheung in Jeju Island, Korea, from Feb. to Nov. 2015. Species diversity of seaweeds and macrobenthos was greater at bedrock sites with 57 and 102 species than at boulder sites having 42 seaweeds and 67 macrobenthos. Average annual biomass of seaweeds was $1,601.13g\;wet\;wt./m^2$ at bedrock site and $448.85g\;wet\;wt./m^2$ at boulder site. Ecklonia cava was the most dominant species, occupying 62.64% ($1,002.93g/m^2$)of total biomass at bedrock. Amphiroa anceps was the most dominant species and subdominant species was Ecklonia cava, Grateloupia angusta, Peyssonnelia capensis and Meristotheca papulosa at boulder site. Density and biomass of macrobenthos were estimated to be $106.9indivi./m^2$ and $871.93g/m^2$, respectively at bedrock site and they were $64.6indivi./m^2$ and $984.28g/m^2$ at boulder site. The dominant macrobenthos species based on biomass were Turbo comutus (36.40%), Astralium haematragum (19.18%) and Anthocidaria crassispina (13.61%) at bedrock site and they were Alveopora japonica (54.13%) and Psammocora profundacella (24.28%) at boulder site.

This study was conducted to determine the optimum organic fertilizer rate (0, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600kg/10a) of worm casting on growth response and yield of Ieol´ radish in Jeiu island. The results obtained were summarized as follows; plant height was getting bigger as organic fertilizer increased from 0 to 500kg/10a and then became smaller at 600kg/10a. But was no significance from 200 to 600kg/10a. Number of leaves, leaf width and root diameter were the same trend with plant height response. Root length was not significantly affected by organic fertilizers. SPAD reading value of leaves increased as increasing of organic fertilizers. Fresh matter yield (top+root) increased significantly 2,949∼4,561kg/10a as fertilizer rate increased from 0 to 200kg/10a, increased 5.096∼5,707kg/10a from 300 to 500kg/10a of fertilizer rate and decreased to 4,873kg/10a at 600kg/10a. Top and root weight were the same trend with fresh matter yield.

This study was carried out to investigate the supplying capacity of various forms(Water soluble, exchangeable, and available) of potassium in soils of different site quality by using surface soils from the Japanese cedar(Cryptomeria japonica) forests in Cheju island. Major results can be summerized as follows. Using continuous leaching methods with 0.01N-HCl, accumulated amounts of available potassium from surface soils of site upper and site low were about 0.6me/100g and 0.4me/100g, respectively. The release ratio of available potassium in the first $1{\ell}$ leaching of 0.01N-HCl to the total available potassium leached with $6{\ell}$ of 0.01N-HCl was over 80% for both sites, and this suggester that surface soil of both sites had the weak potassium adsorptivity as the typical volcanic ash soil. The ratio of the exchangeable potassium to the water soluble potassium was 1 : 1 for both sites. The ratio of the exchangeable potassium to the available potassium was 1 : 1 for the site low but the smaller ratio value for the site upper, indicating that the potassium supplying power of the site upper was greater than that of the site low. Available potassium was highly correlated with exchangeable Ca($0.83^{**}$) and Mg($0.84^{**}$).

The overall objective of this study was to determine which variety of carrot-10 Japan varieties or 6 domestic varieties- produces the optimum quality, when cultivated on Jeju Island. Plant height, leaf number and leaf weight were observed to be more superior in the purebred variety ‘Jungang’than other varieties. further studies, however, skewed the crossing variety ‘Bureoun’was superior to all others. Furthermore, when comparing root diameter, root length and root weight, the ‘Bibary’was superior in both the purebred and crossing variety, When researching Japan varieties, the crossing variety, ‘Jung’showed an increase in underground root. The purebred variety ‘Donghae’also showed an increase in underground root. Marketable yields in domestic varieties were greatest in ‘Hapa’, while in Japan varieties, ‘Kaneko’was the most productive. The percentage of root cracked was 15％ greater in ‘Bureon’. In the purebred variety, Jungang, the percentage was only 10％. The percentage of roots branched was highest in ‘Hidomi’which showed a rate of 9%, The roots branched rate was 2% for ‘Jung’and 6％ for‘Donghae’. Considering the percentage of roots clacked or branched, the marketability of carrots was higher in Japan varieties in comparison with domestic varieties. Therefore we conclude that, in the cropping patterns of carrots, the domestic variety has an advantage over the Japan variety.

Gonadal development and reproductive cycles of red sea urchin Pseudocentrotus depressus were investigated based on the monthly variations of gonadosomatic index (GSI), gametogenesis and developmental phases of gonad. The specimens were sampled monthly in the north coastal waters of Ongpo and the south coastal waters Bubhwan of Jeju Island, Korea, from December 1994 to December 1995. Monthly changes of GSI values and reproductive cycles showed similar trends in Ongpo and Bubhwan. In females GSI values were reached the maximum in December ($17.8{\pm}4.04$ in Ongpo, $13.8{\pm}1.51$ in Bubhwan). In males GSI values were reached the maximum in December ($15.4{\pm}1.53$ in Ongpo, $13.6{\pm}1.32$ in Bubhwan). In both Ongpo and Bubhwan major spawning probably occurred between November and February when water temperatures and daylengths decrease. The histological observations of the gonads suggested that this species seemed to have a synchronous gametogenesis and one spawning season a year in Jeju Island costal waters.

This study was conducted from March 21 to July 8 in 2004 at JeJu Island to investigate the influences of split nitrogen application times on creeping bentgrass vegetation. Nitrogen rate was 20 kg/10a and it was applied from once to 5 times. The result obtained were summarized as follows; plant height was getting longer as nitrogen was split applied from once to 5 times. So it was longest at 5 times split nitrogen application, but it was no significance from 4 to 5 times. Root length, Minolta SPAD-502 chlorophyll meter reading value, leave and root weight n[e directly proportional plant height response. Degree of land cover Iud density of creeping bentgrass increased as nitrogen was split applied from once to 5 times. But degree of land cover md density of reed decreased. The number of reed species on decreased as nitrogen was split applied from once to 5 times. Then ranking of the dominant weeds were Portulaca oleracea Polygonum hydropiper and Stellaria media (at once split time nitrogen application), Portulaca oleracea, Polygonum hydropiper and Digitaria adscendens (at 2 split times nitrogen application), Digitaria adscendens and Portulaca oleracea Polygonum hydropiper, (at 3 split times nitrogen application), Portulaca oleracea, Poa annua and Polygonum hydropiper (at 4 md 5 split times nitrogen application). These results indicate that the optimum frequency of split N applications is four times for growth of creeping bentgrass in volcanic ash soils of Jeju island.
