대청호의 중.하류 주요지점에서 수질특성을 파악하기 위하여 환경요인과 식물플랑크톤의 변동을 98년 6월부터 99년 6월까지 매월 조사하였다. 환경요인 중 수온, DO및 pH는 각각 5.3~27.7$^{\circ}C$, 6.2~13.8 mgO$_2$/1 및 6.4~9.5 범위로서 계절적 영향이 컸다. 무기영양염 중 NH$_4$, NO$_3$, SRP 및 SRSi 농도는 각각 18~104 $\mu$g N/1, 79~1,111 $\mu$g N/1, 0~16 $\mu$g P/1 및 0~3.0 mg Si/l 범위였다. 무기질소 중 NH$_4$ 는 NO$_3$의 5.5~7.2%수준이었다. NO$_3$는 하계에만 다소 낮았고 다른 시기에는 거의 일정하였다. SRP와 SRSi농도는 남조류가 우점하는 하계에 증가하였고 수온이 감소된 10월 이후에 규조류의 증가와 함께 SRP와 SRSi농도가 감소하였다. 따라서 SRSi는 SRP와 더불어 조류 생장에 밀접한 관련성이 있는 영양염으로 평가되었다. Chl-$\alpha$ 평균농도는 8~12 $\mu$g/1 범위로서 하류(댐)에서 가장 낮았다. 또한 하절기에 TN/TP비가 감소할수록 chi-$\alpha$ 농도는 증가하였고 TN/TP비의 평균값은 110으로서 조류의 생장에 대해 P 제한성이 강하였다. 식물플랑크톤의 변동은 계절에 따라 소수종이 우점하는 특성이 관찰되었다. 하계에는 남조류 Anabaena, Microcystis 및 Oscillatoria속 조류가 주로 초여름부터 늦가을까지 발생하여 번무하였다. 이 중에서 A. spiroides v. crassa는 0.3~2.0$\times$$10^4$cells/ml, M. aeruginosa는 6.4$\times$$10^2$~1.0$\times$$10^4$cells/m1 및 O. limosu는 4.6$\times$$10^3$~1.6$\times$$10^4$ cells/ml 범위로서 변화 폭이 가장 컸다. 반면 동계에는 규조류 Stephanodiscus속 조류가 11월~4월에 평균 4.9$\times$$10^2$cells/m1수준이었고 1월에 평균 세포수가 1.3$\times$$10^3$ cells/ml로 많아 중요종으로 볼 수 있었다.

국립수산과학원과 지역자치단체의 적조모니터링 결과를 바탕으로 해양환경 변동이 적조발생에 미치는 영향을 규명하였다. 1972년 적조 모니터링이 시작된 이후, 1980년대에서 1990년대까지 적조 발생은 지속적으로 증가를 하였으며, 1998년 109건의 최다 적조발생 이후 2010년대까지 감소 추세를 보이고 있다. 1970년대는 대부분 규조 적조가 발생하였으며, 1980년대에는 연안성 와편모조류가 주로 적조를 일으켰으며, 1993년 이후 Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조가 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 우리나라에서 수산피해를 일으킨 유해 적조생물은 3종이다. 1981년 진해만에서 Karenia mikimotoi에 의한 고밀도 적조가 발생하여 패류가 대량 폐사하였다. 1992년 통영해역에서 Karenina sp.에 의한 적조가 발생하여 양식어류를 폐사시켰으며, 1995년 C. polykrikoides 적조로 765억 원의 최대 규모의 수산피해가 발생한 이후 지속적으로 발생하고 있다. 연안해역의 영양염 농도는 1980년대에 가장 높았으며, 1990년 중반 이후 매우 감소하고 있다. 이러한 영양염 감소는 적조발생 감소를 잘 설명해 준다. 2016년 이후 30℃이상의 여름 고수온이 나타나며 C. polykrikoides의 적조 발생 범위와 규모는 매우 감소하였다. 2016년 K. mikimotoi 적조가 전남 장흥~고흥 해역에 발생하였으며, C. polykrikoides 적조는 여수해역에만 발생하였다. 2017년은 C. polykrikoides 적조 발생이 없었으며, Alexandrium affine 적조가 전남 여수~경남 통영해역까지 발생하였다. 2018년은 평년에 비해 소규모 C. polykrikoides 적조가 발생하였다. 본 연구결과 우리나라 연안의 영양염 감소와 기후변화로 인한 고수온은 적조 발생에 영향을 주는 것으로 판단된다.

Yellow clay dispersion has been applied to minimize fisheries impact by the red tide Cochlodinium polykrikoides blooms in Korean coasts since 1995. The present preliminary study documents the effect of yellow clay on Korean rockfish, Sebastes schlegelii, in terms of oxygen consumption rate (OCR). The OCR in the low clay suspension (0.05 and 0.23 %, w/w) showed normal level compared to the control. In contrast, the OCR for each one of three replicates in the high clay suspension (1.16 and 5.58 %, w/w) was not returned to the previous level that clay was not treated, indicating that high clay suspension (${\geq}1.16%$, w/w) might give negative effect on Korean rockfish. Overall, this result suggests that field application of clay to control Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) may not give impact on Korean rockfish once the clay is dispersed in a low concentration (${\leq}0.23%$). In order to understand the changes of OCR in the repeated exposure to clay, it is required to do further studies on the changes of OCR when the fish is exposed to clay repeatedly after recovery in the normal seawater.

Although green algae of the genus Closterium are considered ideal models for testing toxicity in aquatic ecosystems, little data about the effects of toxicity on these algal species is currently available. Here, Closterium ehrenbergii was used to assess the acute toxicity of copper (Cu). The median effective concentration ($EC_{50}$) of copper sulfate based on a dose response curve was $0.202mg\;L^{-1}$, and reductions in photosynthetic efficiency ($F_v/F_m$ ratio) of cells were observed in cultures exposed to Cu for 6 h, with efficiency significantly reduced after 48 h (p < 0.01). In addition, production of reactive oxygen species significantly increased over time (p < 0.01), leading to damage to intracellular organelles. Our results indicate that Cu induces oxidative stress in cellular metabolic processes and causes severe physiological damage within C. ehrenbergii cells, and even cell death; moreover, they clearly suggest that C. ehrenbergii represents a potentially powerful test model for use in aquatic toxicity assessments.

Heavy metal ions in water were removed using algal biomass as adsorbents. Absorbents were dried for 3 days, ground them by 40~60 mesh and then were swelled in a buffer solution for 1hr. After being packed in the column, commercially available standard solution of Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions were diluted to get the suitable concentration and then it was eluted with the rate of 1mι/min. Heavy metals on the adsorbents were recovered with nitric acid. More amounts of Cd(II) or Pb(II) ions in green algae, Ulva pertusa, than in brown algae, Sargassum horneri, were adsorbed. Pb(II) ion was adsorbed more than Cd(II) ion in both algae. The pH effect of adsorbed amounts of Cd(II), Pb(II) ions on the biomass was shown the following order ; pH 10.5 ＞ 8.5 ＞ 7.0 ＞ 5.5 ＞ 3.5. Recovery ratio of metal ions front algae is shown higher in acidic or neutral conditions than it in alkalic ones. Pb(II) ion is recovered relatively more than Cd(II) ion in our system.

We made intensive observations on the coastal upwelling off the coast of the southern East Sea from June to August in 2001. The upwelling exhibited a weekly waxing and waning. The coastal upwelling of the year 2001 was characterized by abrupt outbreaks and the small local scale. Upwelling occurred more frequently off the coast of Ulsan and Gampo as reported by the earlier observers. The spread of freshly upwelled colder water was varied by each upwelling event. Generally cold waters were carried away northeastward off Pohang province. The upwelled cold waters were saltier than the resident surface waters. The pH and salinity-normalized alkalinity support the idea that the upwelled waters originate from the interior of the East Sea. The extraordinarily high concentration of dissolved oxygen suggests that the upwelled waters are closely connected to the southward flowing North Korea Cold Current. Although a lower primary productivity was reported for the upwelling region, underway surface fluorescence measurement revealed that the recently upwelled waters supported up to an order of magnitude higher algal biomass than the ambient waters. Because thermohaline circulation of the East Sea is so vigorous, with an estimated time scale of less than one hundred years, that the coastal upwelling should be considered not as an anomaly but as a regular component of a circulatory system. A quantitative understanding of upwelling seems to be a key to elucidate material cycling and the associated biological production in the East Sea.

The purpose of this study is to investigate characteristics of total phosphorus (TP) and phosphate phosphorous ($PO_4$-P) concentrations in ponded water and redox potential (Eh) in paddy soil during the growing season. The TP and $PO_4$-P concentrations showed twice peak values after basal dressing and tillering fertilization. The ratio of $PO_4$-P to TP showed low values (0.07~0.18), indicating that most of phosphorus is particlulate. The $PO_4$-P concentrations significantly decreased with dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations. The Eh showed high values (179~636 mV) under non-ponded aerobic condition, but low values (74~112 mV) under ponded anaerobic condition The TP and $PO_4$-P concentrations in ponded water increased shortly after tillering fertilization even if phosphorus was not applied. This may be due to the release of dissolved phosphorus from the bottom sediment and its associated algal and water flea blooms under anaerobic condition. Therefore, proper water management should be needed shortly after tillering fertilization.

The possibility of microalgal nitrogen treatment was tested in wastewaters with a low carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratio. Chlorella kessleri was cultured in the two different artificial wastewaters with nitrate as a nitrogen source: one contained glucose for an organic carbon source and the other without organic carbon sources. The growth rates of the two cultures were almost identical when the aeration rate was over 1 vvm. These results suggest that microalgae could successfully remove nitrogen from wastewater, as far as the mass transfer of $CO_2$, was not limited. Nitrate was successfully reduced to below 2 mg $NO_3^-$-N/ml from the initial nitrate concentration of 140 mg $NO_3^-$-N/ml in 10 days, even in the wastewater with no organic carbon source. Similar results were obtained when ammonium was used as the sole nitrogen source instead of nitrate. Higher concentrations of nitrogen of 140, 280, 560 and 1,400 mg/ml were also tested and similar amounts of nitrogen were removed by algal cultures without showing any substrate inhibition.

Growth of Microcystis aeruginosa could be inhibited significantly within 24 h by the extracellular substances prepared from Aeromonas sp. strain FM. During the treatment, the concentration of extracellular soluble carbohydrates increased significantly in algal culture. Morphological and ultrastructural changes in M. aeruginosa cells, including breakage of the cell surface, secretion of mucilage, and intracellular disorganization of thylakoids, were observed. HPLC-MS analysis showed that the extracellular substances of Aeromonas sp. strain FM were a mixture of free amino acids, tripeptides, and clavulanate. Among these, the algaelysis effects of lysine and clavulanate were confirmed.

The MERIS MCI (Maximum Chlorophyll Index), measuring the radiance peak at 709 nm in water-leaving radiance, indicates the presence of a high surface concentration of chlorophyll ${\underline{a}}$ against a scattering background. The index is high in 'red tide' conditions (intense, visible, surface, plankton blooms), and is also raised when aquatic vegetation is present. A bloom search based on MCI has resulted in detection of a variety of events in Canadian, Antarctic and other waters round the world, as well as detection of extensive areas of pelagic vegetation (Sargassum spp.), previously unreported in the scientific literature. Since June 1 2006, global MCI composite images, at a spatial resolution of 5 km, are being produced daily from all MERIS (daylight) passes of Reduced Resolution (RR) data. The global composites significantly increase the area now being searched for events, though the reduced spatial resolution may cause smaller events to be missed. This paper describes the composites and gives examples of plankton bloom events that they have detected. It also shows how the composites show the effect of the South Atlantic Anomaly, where cosmic rays affect the MERIS instrument.
