To control algal bloom in reservoirs in Korea, artificial circulation systems have been applied. Diffuser block aeration systems have been increasingly used in Korean reservoirs especially for shallow ones. However, there has been no sound theoretical background for the design and operation of the system. Also there has not been sufficient post-installation studies to validate the effectiveness of the system. As a result, it has been repeatedly reported that the success of the system is not certain. Proper consideration on thermal stratification regimes of reservoirs and flow dynamics induced by bubble plumes are essential elements in design processes of the aeration system. This paper discusses the current methods in the design of diffuser type aeration system and suggests a new design method based on fluid mechanical theory. Example calculations were discussed using observed data of the Yeoncho Dam and it seems that the results represent the current situation successfully.

Mixotrophy in marine organisms is an important aspect of ecology and evolution. The discovery of mixotrophic abilities in phototrophic dinoflagellates alters our understanding of the dynamics of red tides. In the phototrophic dinoflagellate genus Alexandrium, some species are mixotrophic, but others are exclusively autotrophic. There are differences in the ecological roles of autotrophic and mixotrophic Alexandrium in marine food webs. However, of the 34 known Alexandrium species, the mixotrophic ability of >20 species has yet to be explored. In this study, the mixotrophic capabilities of Alexandrium insuetum CCMP2082, Alexandrium mediterraneum CCMP3433, Alexandrium pacificum CCMP3434, Alexandrium tamutum ATSH1609, and Alexandrium margalefii CAWD10 were investigated by providing each species with 22 diverse prey items including bacterium-sized microbeads (1 ㎛), the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp., algal prey species, and the ciliate Mesodinium rubrum. None of the 5 Alexandrium species fed on any of the prey items. These results increase the number of Alexandrium species lacking mixotrophic abilities to 9, compared to the 7 known mixotrophic Alexandrium species. Furthermore, the Alexandrium phylogenetic tree based on the large subunit ribosomal DNA contained 3 large clades, each of which had species with and without mixotrophic abilities. Thus, the acquisition or loss of mixotrophic abilities in Alexandrium might readily occur.

In this study, we investigated vertical distribution and seasonal changes of phytophlankton community in the Hae-Dong Reservoir from March 1999 to Feburary 2000. This reservoir is relativly small (surface area, 2.7 $km^2$) and is the source of drinking water supply to the eastern part of Pusan City. Samples were collected at 2 sites (1, 3, and 6 m; site 1, in front of the dam; site 2, inlet). The dominant group was Bacillriophyceae at both sites (over 63%), and other groups exhibited seasonal changes (high cyanobacterial density in summer; green algal communities in winter). Chrysophyceae and Dinophyceae were maintained lower level during the study period. Along the water depth, all classess of phytoplankton did not show distintive vertical distribution at both sites except during the blue-green algal bloom in the middle of July and late September. The phytoplankton community dynamics in the Hoe-Dong Reservoir was strongly affected by the hydrological factors such as concentrated precipitation and short retention time.

Use of artificial circulation system has become popular in Korean reservoirs to control algal blooms and subsequent color, taste and odor problems in drinking water. It was found that the most of aeration system in Korean reservoirs are under-designed compared to existing installations in US and Australia. This was especially true for larger reservoirs greater than $5{\times}10^7m^3$ in volume since it is common to install the system in the vicinity of intake areas only. Consequently, successful cases of artificial circulation systems operations are limited to few small reservoirs less than $1{\times}10^7m^3$. It is suggested that the design methods need to be developed considering physical characteristics and water quality kinetics inside of reservoirs. Also operation methods of artificial circulation systems need to be established considering the water quality dynamics, stratification and morphological characteristics of reservoirs. Finally, it is suggested to maintain comprehensive and long term monitoring programs to validate the application of artificial circulation system in reservoirs.

Dinoflagellates are considered one of the most abundant and diverse groups of marine microplankton and viruses are recognized as one of the significant factors affecting the plankton dynamics. Here, we report basic characteristics of a new dinoflagellate-infecting virus, Heterocapsa pygmaea DNA virus (HpygDNAV) which infects a toxic dinoflagellate, H. pygmaea. HpygDNAV is a polyhedral large virus (ca. 160-170 nm in diameter) propagating in its host's cytoplasm. Because of the virion size, appearance in thin sections, and propagation characteristics, HpygDNAV is assumed to harbor a large double-stranded DNA genome; i.e., HpygDNAV is most likely a nucleocytoplasmic large DNA virus (NCLDV) belonging to the family Phycodnaviridae. Its infectivity is strain-specific, rather than species-specific, as is the case for other algal viruses. The burst size and latent period are estimated to be roughly 100-250 infectious units $cell^{-1}$ and < 96 h, respectively.

Tetraselmis is a green algal genus, some of whose species are important in aquaculture as well as biotechnology. In algal culture, fluorescent lamps, traditional light source for culturing algae, are now being replaced by a cost-effective light-emitting diodes (LEDs). In this study, we investigated the effect of LED light of different wavelengths (white, red, yellow, and blue) on the growth of Tetraselmis suecica and its associated microbial community structures using the next-generation sequencing (NGS). The fastest growth rate of T. suecica was shown in the red light, whereas the slowest was in yellow. The highest OTUs (3426) were identified on day 0, whereas the lowest ones (308) were found on day 15 under red light. The top 100 OTUs associated with day 0 and day 5 cultures of T. suecica under the red and yellow LED were compared. Only 26 OTUs were commonly identified among four samples. The highest numbers of unique OTUs were identified at day 0, indicating the high degree of initial microbial diversity of the T. suecica inoculum. The red light-unique OTUs occupied 34.98%, whereas the yellow-specific OTUs accounted for only 2.2%. This result suggested a higher degree of interaction in T. suecica culture under the red light, where stronger photosynthesis occurs. Apparently, the microbial community associated with T. suecica related to the oxygen produced by algal photosynthesis. This result may expand our knowledge about the algae-bacteria consortia, which would be useful for various biotechnological applications including wastewater treatment, bioremediation, and sustainable aquaculture.

4대강 사업의 일환으로 추진된 보 건설이 영산강의 조류발생 형태와 제반 환경조건에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 장기 (2001~2014년) 자료 (환경부 물환경정보시스템)를 분석하였다. 분석 항목으로 조류 발생의 형태를 파악할 수 있는 엽록소 ${\alpha}$와 환경인자인 부유물질, 암모늄, 질산염, 인산염, 총 질소, 총 인, N : P ratio 등이다. 조사 정점은 최상류에 위치한 담양 (DY)에서 하류의 무안1 (MA1)까지 포함 (총 12개)한다. 분석 항목별로 시간적 분포를 시계열로 분석하였고, 건설 전과 후의 직접적인 비교를 위해 전과 후 3년간 자료 (2006~2008년, 2012~2013년)를 Box-Whisker Plot으로 도시하여 분석하였다. 또한 항목들 간의 상관성 분석 (Pearson's correlation analysis)도 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 수층의 탁도를 결정하는 부유물질은 보 건설 기간 중에 부유물질 농도가 보 건설 전에 비해 거의 모든 정점에서 상당 폭 증가한 반면 건설 이후에는 상류 및 중류에 위치한 정점들을 중심으로 확연하게 감소하였다. 암모늄은 건설 이전에 비해 건설 이후 증가하는 경향을 보인 반면, 나머지 영양염은 감소하였고 이로 인해 N : P ratio가 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 엽록소 ${\alpha}$는 건설 중에는 모든 정점에서 감소하였으나, 건설 후에 부유물질 (탁도)이 감소하였던 정점에서 건설 전에 비해 확연히 증가하는 형태를 보여 주었다. 이는 영산강에서 보 건설 이후 인산염과 같은 영양염이 감소했지만, 동시에 탁도가 감소하면서 조류가 대발생 할 수 있는 환경이 조성되었음을 제시하는 결과라 할 수 있다

녹조 현상과 관련하여 독성물질을 배출하는 남조류 4종의 경우 유해 남조류로 지정하여 관리하고 있으며, 물리적인 모형을 이용한 예측 정보도 함께 발표하고 있다. 그러나 조류는 살아 있는 생명체로 물리 역학에 따른 예측에 어려움이 있으며, 기상, 수리·수문, 수질 등 수많은 인자에 의한 영향을 고려하기가 쉽지 않다. 따라서, 최근 머신러닝을 이용한 녹조발생 예측 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 경북 영천에 소재한 보현산댐과 영천댐을 대상으로 랜덤 포레스트 모형을 이용하여 유해남조류 발생에 영향을 미치는 수질인자의 특성중요도를 분석해 보았으며, 이 중 가장 높은 특성중요도를 나타낸 수온을 이용하여 머신러닝과 딥러닝을 이용하여 유해남조류 발생을 예측하고 그 정확성을 확인하였다. 특성중요도 분석 결과, 수온과 총질소(T-N)이 공통적으로 높게 나왔으며, 인공신경망(ANN)을 이용한 유해남조류 발생예측에서도 실제와 근접한 값이 예측되어 앞으로 녹조관리를 위해 유해남조류 예측이 필요한 저수지의 경우 이를 활용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The adverse effect of harmful plankton on the marine ecosystem is a topic of deep concern. To investigate the role of such phytoplankton, a mathematical model containing distinct dynamical equations for toxic and non-toxic phytoplankton is analyzed. Stability analysis of the resulting three equation model is carried out. A continuous time variation in toxin liberation process is incorporated into the model and a stability analysis of the resulting delay model is performed. The distributed delay model is then extended to include the spatial distribution of plankton and the delay-diffusion model is analyzed with spatial and spatiotemporal kernels. Conditions for diffusion-driven instability in both the cases are derived and compared to explore the significance of these kernels. Numerical studies are performed to justify analytical findings.
