To investigate reproductive cycle of Tridentiger obscurus in Jeju, total 408 fish were collected in brackish area (May 2004 to August 2005) and total 271 fish were collected in tidal pool (July 2004 to August 2005), respectively. Water temperature ranged $11.0{\sim}21.6^{\circ}C$ in brackish area. Water temperature of tidal pool ($11.1{\sim}24.5^{\circ}C$) in 2005 was similar to that of brackish area although it were highest $30.1{\sim}29.2^{\circ}C$ from July to August in 2004. In brackish area, female gonadosomatic index (GSI) increased in April and maintained high values from May to August. The reproductive cycle can be grouped into the following successive stages in the ovary: immature (November to May), maturing (March to September), ripe and spawning (May to September), and degenerating (July to December). In the tidal pool, female GSI rapidly increased in April and maintained high values until July in 2005. However, it has been low in July 2004 when water temperature was highest. The reproductive cycle can be grouped into the following successive stages in the ovary: immature (August to April), maturing (March to August), ripe and spawning (March to July), and degenerating (July to August 2004 and August 2005). Fecundity of mature female ranged from 1,214 to 12,109 in brackish and ranged from 2,427 to 13,892 in tidal pool area. The fecundity of fish in the tidal pool was significantly higher than that of fish in brackish area. Fecundity was correlated positively with total length and body weigh. Although the large group (> 111 mm total length) in brackish area observed only in spawning season, one in the tidal pool observed from October 2004 until next spawning season. Frequency of the large group was 0 to 12% and 11.4 to 57.9% in brackish area and tidal pool, respectively. These results were indicated that gonadal development of T. obscurus was affected to water temperature and day length.

This study was conducted to investigate the species composition and distribution patterns of intertidal fishes from the Shandong Peninsula, China from August 2006 to September 2007. The collected fishes were composed of 28 species, belonging to 21 genera, 14 families and 6 orders. Among them, the family Gobiidae was most abundant in both the number of species and individuals, while two species including Hexagrammos agrammus and Sebastes schlegelii were caught in large quantities of young fishes. In this study, Sebastes koreanus and Porocottus leptosomus known as Korean endemic species so far were collected in the Shandong Peninsula, therefore it should be revised that these two species were distributed on the North Yellow Sea and owned by both China and Korea.

To research changes in the fish community of intertidal zones in relation to the construction of the Saemangeum tidal embankment, fishes were collected in the tide pools of Naechodo, Gunsan-si, and of Haechang, Buan-gun in Jeollabuk-do, every month from December 2002 to October 2004. Based on the fishes collected and data from previous studies show that in the tide pools of Haechang, the number of species decreased, and the dominant species is Tridentiger trigonocephalus, as before. However, in the tide pools of Naechodo, the number of species decreased, and the dominant species changed from T. trigonocephalus to Synechogobius hasta. Favonigobius gymnauchen, which inhabits sand-beds, decreased remarkably. Meanwhile, in the intertidal zone of Haechang, young black porgy were caught in large quantities, while in the intertidal zone of Naechodo, young Acanthopagrus schlegelii and Lateolabrax japonicus, which had been caught in a large amounts between 1994 and 2000, were not caught. The results are thought to show that the intertidal zone of Naechodo, Gunsan-si, had more deposits by tide flats than that of Haechang, Buan-gun, which drastically changed the habitat of its fish community.

Mobile macrofauna and community structure were studied at the Youngjong tiny tidepools, Incheon, Korea. Samples were monthly collected from February 2010 to January 2011. Mobile macrofauna community comprised a total of 18 species, including 1,122 individuals and 623.6 gWWt. The dominant species were Luciogobius guttatus, Tridentiger bifasciatus, Hemigrapsus penicillatus, Pagurus minutus. The number of species and biomass were low from December to March, and high from April to November. Canonical correspondence analysis revealed that temperature were the most important environmental variables in determining the observed variability in community composition. Species diversity indices ranged from 0.14 to 2.05, and showed the highest value in October 2010. The tide pools provide spawning ground and nursery ground for some fishes and decapods.

This study was to investigate the habitat conditions and growth of right eye flounder (Kareius bicoloratus) in the Saemangeum Reseorvoir during 1995$\sim$2007. The planktonic larvae of K. bicoloratus appeared in early March, and then the juveniles started the benthic life in the tide-pools inside the reservoir, being 1.5$\sim$2.5cm in total length in early April and 6.0$\sim$7.2cm in mid-July. This species was not collected in the tide-pools after July, indicating that the juveniles began to move to outer seas for growing. When the tide barrier of Saemangeum was constructed, the juveniles of K. bicoloratus decreased as the tidal pools were covered continuously, then they could not be collected after 2005. Thus, it is concluded that the environmental change has taken important influence on distribution and spawning of K. bicoloratus since the reservoir was constructed.

Three specimens of Abudefduf septemfasciatus were collected firstly from tidal pools on the southern and northern coasts of Jeju Island, Korea in August 2015. This species is characterized by black blotches on the upper origin of the pectoral fin, upper caudal peduncle and a dorsal fin between the second and fourth spines, predorsal scales beyond to above the middle of the eye, 12~13 soft dorsal and anal fin rays, and 20 lateral-line scales. This species is distinguishable from Abudefduf sordidus by soft dorsal and anal fin rays, location of caudal peduncle blotch, and location of the dorsal fin blotch. The newly proposed Korean name is "Il-gop-jul-ja-dom".

Feeding ecology of Luciogobius guttatus (Flat-head goby) populations were investigated on the Youngjong, Incheon, Korea. In total, 257 individuals ranging from 13.4 to 57.5 mm standard length SL were analyzed. L. guttatus was studied in the Tide-pool from January 2010 to December 2010 monthly. The stomach contents of L. guttatus consisted mainly of Copepods and Brachyurans. Amphipods, Anomurans, Cumaceans, Macrurans, Insects and small stones were also observed. As a result, the benthic crustaceans were important food for this species. Harpacticoid spp. (Copepods) and Hemigrapsus spp. (Brachyurans) were major prey organisms for all fish size and seasons.

This study describes the spatial distribution of dinoflagellate cyst assemblages from the fishing ports along Jeju Island. Surface sediment samples from 22 stations revealed the occurrence of 29 species involving the Groups Protoperidinioid (44.8%), Gonyaulacoid (31.0%), Calciodineloid (10.3%), Gymnodinioid (6.9%), Diplosalid (3.5%) and Tuberculodinioid (3.5%). The cyst abundance recorded here is very low ($13{\sim}220cysts\;g-dry^{-1}$) as compared to Korean coastal regions. The abundance of heterothophic cysts increased in several fishing pots with fine sediments and anthropogenic tidal pools. And cyst abundance was well correlated with the grain-size composition of surface sediments. The dinoflagellate cyst assemblages in Jeju fishing ports were characterized by the dominant species, cyst of Gymnodinium sp., cyst of Pyrodinium bahamense and cyst of Scrippsiella trochoidea in 2012, Protoperidinium sp. (Brigantedinium sp.), cyst of Scrippsiella sp./trochoidea and cyst of Gymnodinium sp. in 2014, and Protoperidinium sp. (Echinidinium sp. and Brigantedinium sp.) in 2016. The advent of the toxic dinoflagellate, Pyrodinium bahamense were recorded for the first time in Jeju coastal waters. As a results, we are determined should be to monitoring and management measures for new toxic dinoflegallates from tropical or subtropical reigions and anthropogenic tidal pools by industrial activities.
