To delineate the relationship between dynamic elastic modulus and lithologies, suspension PS logging was applied to Yuseong granite, Paldang banded gneiss, and Sabuk sedimentary rock. P and S wave velocities were also measured for these lithologies. In addition, uniaxial strength and Poisson’s ratio were measured in a laboratory for Yuseong granite and Paldang banded gneiss. In laboratory measurements, P and S wave velocities in Paldang banded gneiss were higher than those in Yuseong granite whereas Poisson’s ratio in Paldang banded gneiss was lower than that in Yuseong granite. This implies that P and S wave velocities correlate reversely with Poisson’s ratio. The dynamic Young modulus obtained from suspension PS logging was high compared to the dynamic bulk modulus and the dynamic shear modulus.

In order to establish optimum anesthesia concentration, we tested the efficacy of clove oil at five different concentrations in large sized (mean SL $17.1{\pm}2.21\;cm$) and small sized (mean SL $0.6{\pm}0.06\;cm$) dark-banded rockfish Sebastes inermis. Optimal anesthesia concentration for dark-banded rockfish was $150\;mgL^{-1}$ in both large and small sized fish. In general, fish exposed to higher anesthetic doses were rapidly induced but took longer to recover (P<0.05). Recovery time of small sized fish was longer than large sized fish in lower concentrations, while recovery time of large sized fish was longer than small sized fish in higher concentration (P<0.05). Using the established optimum aesthetic concentration, we evaluated the physiological response of dark-banded rockfish to clove oil by measuring plasma cortisol and glucose levels. Following administration of $150\;mgL^{-1}$ clove oil at $20^{\circ}C$ (optimum breeding temperature), plasma cortisol level was highest ($42.2{\pm}11.318{\mu}g/dL$) after 0 hour, while plasma glucose level was highest ($52.5{\pm}10.61\;mg/dL$) after 1 hour. Plasma cortisol and glucose concentrations required 6 and 2 hours, respectively, to return to pre-exposure levels.

We experienced mortality of dark-banded rockfish (Sebastes inermis) maintained in the rearing facility located in Gangneung, after transportation. Moribund fish showed various symptoms such as exophthalmia, skin ulcers, tail rots, gill rots, discoloration of liver with petechiae, yellowish fluid in intestines and ascites. Two different colonies were dominantly appeared after spreading the lesions on the agar plates and incubation. One isolate (SI_1) showed swarming movement on TSA, and formed yellow colonies on TCBS agar. The other (SI_2) showed no swarming motility and green colonies on TCBS agar. Both of them were Gram-negative. All of these results are similar with those of Genus Vibrio. They were identified as V. harveyi and V. gigantis by PCR with subsequent sequencing of 3 different genes (16 rDNA, recA, rpoA). V. harveyi is well-known as a serious pathogen of marine fish and invertebrates, while V. gigantis is known to be often isolated from marine invertebrates, but the pathogenicity is still unknown. We suspect V. harveyi as the cause of the mortality of dark-banded rockfish, but challenge experiments with these 2 Vibrio species are thought to be necessary to make a clear conclusion.

A large anorthositic mass outcropped as mushroom-like body extending up to 46km which occurs in the Hadong kaoline district of southern Korea. The anorthositic mass is in contact with the metamorphic, plutonic and sedimentary rocks. The metamorphic rocks are of granitic gneiss and banded gneiss, etc; the plutonic rocks are of gabbroic and dioritic rocks, schistose granite, syenite, diorite and granite. The sedimentary rocks include siltstone and pebbly sandstone of Lower Gyeongsang System, Cretaceous in age. The anorthositic mass shows a gradational contact with the metamorphic and sedimentary rocks, and is cut by the plutonic rocks except gabbroic and dioritic rocks. The anorthositic mass is leucocratic in the central portion of the mass, and, in turn, grades to rock phases in which ma/ic minerals are irregularly scattered, then to the well-lineated rock and finally to the banded gneiss. Lineation of the anorthositic mass is accordant with that of the surrounding banded gneiss, and the lineation continues toward the gneiss. In some places, the rock phases in which mafics are scattered is gradational with adjacent sedimentary rocks. The anorthositic mass in contact with gabbroic and dioritic rocks shows spotted features. Various replacement features seen under the microscope and paragenetic sequence of the mineral components in the anorthositic rocks cannot be considered as the origin of magmatic crystallization. From the field and microscopic observations, it is concluded that the anorthositic mass was formed from replacement of the metamorphic rocks and plutonic rocks by the anorthositic magma.

The banded moray eel, previously reported as Gymnothorax reticularis, is redescribed based on one specimen (469.0 mm TL) collected from a fish trap in Geoje-do, South Sea, Korea. It is characterized by 19 dark brown vertical bars; 139 total vertebrae; both jaw teeth large, strong, and slightly serrated; 1 median intermaxillary tooth; small and blunt vomerine teeth. Although the banded moray eel has been reported as Gymnothorax reticularis in Korea by some ichthyologists, this study suggests that its scientific name should be changed to Gymnothorax minor based on its number of vertebrae and presence of a median intermaxillary tooth.

To investigate the role of water temperatures and photoperidos as environmental cues regulating reproductive rhythm in banded catfish Pseudobagrus fulvidraco, rearing experiments were conducted using sveral rearing regimes conbined with changes in photoperiods and water temperatures during growing and spawning periods. GSI of $23^{\circ}C$ was significantly higher than $18^{\circ}C$ in female, but 9 light of 18 and $23^{\circ}C$ were no difference in male. In case of estradiol, $18^{\circ}C$ and 15 L was higher than other experintal precinct after 20 days. But, end of the experiment, all of experimental precinct were no difference. Testosteron of female was no difference in $18^{\circ}C$-9 and 15 L after 20 days. Testosteron of male was no difference in $18^{\circ}C$-9 L. In case of 11-KT, control level was $0.39{\pm}0.03$ ng/mL and $18^{\circ}C$-9 L was no significantly difference after 20 days. But, 15 L was higher than other experimental precinct.

Distributed massive MIMO systems, which have high bandwidth efficiency and can accommodate a tremendous amount of traffic using algorithms such as zero-forcing beam forming (ZFBF), may be deployed in large public venues with the antennas mounted under-floor. In this case the channel gain matrix H can be modeled as a multi-banded matrix, in which off-diagonal entries decay both exponentially due to heavy human penetration loss and polynomially due to free space propagation loss. To enable practical implementation of such systems, we present a multi-banded matrix inversion algorithm that substantially reduces the complexity of ZFBF by keeping the most significant entries in H and the precoding matrix W. We introduce a parameter p to control the sparsity of H and W and thus achieve the tradeoff between the computational complexity and the system throughput. The proposed algorithm includes dense and sparse precoding versions, providing quadratic and linear complexity, respectively, relative to the number of antennas. We present analysis and numerical evaluations to show that the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) increases linearly with p in dense precoding. In sparse precoding, we demonstrate the necessity of using directional antennas by both analysis and simulations. When the directional antenna gain increases, the resulting SIR increment in sparse precoding increases linearly with p, while the SIR of dense precoding is much less sensitive to changes in p.

Juvenile banded catfish(Pseudobagurus fulvidraco, mean length $10.7{\pm}0.42cm$ and mean weight $15.0{\pm}0.23g$) were exposed to varies TAN(total ammonia) concentrations at pH levels of $6.12{\pm}0.51$, $7.00{\pm}0.26$ and $8.04{\pm}0.07$ for 96hrs to check the level of acute toxicity on biofloc technology aquaculture system(BFT). The result showed that cumulative mortalities for juvenile banded catfish at TAN levels 48.95, 55.96, 66.47, and 78.88 mg/L at pH $6.12{\pm}0.51$ were 0, 30, 30, and 50%, respectively. At pH $7.00{\pm}0.26$, its mortalities to TAN 5.20, 11.68, 15.31, and 18.31 mg/L were 0, 10, 20, and 70%, respectively and at pH $8.04{\pm}0.07$, the mortalities to TAN 0.96, 1.49, 2.13, and 3.62 mg/L were 10, 20, 40, and 100%, respectively. Its $96h-LC_{50}$ (median lethal concentration, $LC_{50}$) at pH $6.12{\pm}0.51$, $7.00{\pm}0.26$, and $8.04{\pm}0.07$ were 78.12, 15.87, and 2.21 mg/L for TAN, and 0.05, 0.10, and 0.14 mg/L for $NH_3$, respectively, and the acute toxicity for ammonia to juvenile banded catfish increased exponentially with increase of pH.

Juvenile banded catfish(Pseudobagurus fulvidraco, mean length $10.4{\pm}0.37cm$ and mean weight $14.5{\pm}0.46g$) were exposed to several nitrite(${NO_2}^-$) concentrations for 96h at pH levels of $6.18{\pm}0.54$, $6.5{\pm}0.30$ and $7.07{\pm}0.22$. The result showed that cumulative mortalities of fish to ${NO_2}^-$ levels of 12.4, 19.8, 33.9 and 53.6 mg/L at pH levels of $6.18{\pm}0.54$ were 20, 25, 40 and 85%, respectively. At pH $6.5{\pm}0.54$, mortalities to ${NO_2}^-$ 22.4, 36.4, 45.3 and 63.2 mg/L were 25, 35, 50 and 100%, respectively. At pH $7.07{\pm}0.22$, mortalities to ${NO_2}^-$ 25.5, 45.7, 56.3 and 66.4 mg/L were 0, 55, 70 and 100%, respectively. The 96h-$LC_{50}$(median lethal concentration, $LC_{50}$) of fish to several ${NO_2}^-$ concentrations at pH levels of $6.18{\pm}0.54$, $6.5{\pm}0.30$ and $7.07{\pm}0.22$ were assessed in these experiments. 96h-$LC_{50}$ at pH levels of $6.18{\pm}0.54$, $6.5{\pm}0.30$ and $7.07{\pm}0.22$ were 32.68, 40.49 and 45.85 mg/L, respectively. It indicated that acute toxicity of ${NO_2}^-$ to juvenile banded catfish increased with low levels of pH and lengthening of exposure time to ${NO_2}^-$. In particular, smaller fish(mean weight $14.5{\pm}0.46g$) were more sensitive to ${NO_2}^-$ than larger fish(mean weight $81.7{\pm}1.42g$; not published). The 96h-$LC_{50}$ of juvenile banded catfish to ${NO_2}^-$ would be primary guideline for water quality management in the intensive culture system such as RAS and BFT.

Expression analysis of development-related genes was conducted using differential screening of 6-month-old [18M(-), 6M-18M] specific and 18-month-old [6M(-), 18M-6M] specific subtracted cDNA libraries constructed by subtractive hybridization using skeletal muscle of 6- and 18-month-old dark-banded rockfish Sebastes inermis. A total 202 cDNA clones displaying different expression levels in each stage were obtained; among them, 32 clones showing up-regulation were finally selected for further expression analysis. We sequenced the clones and analyzed individual sequences. Genes expressed specifically in 6-month-old skeletal muscle were identified as myosin, adenylate kinase, calsequestrin, dystrobrevin beta, and diphosphate kinase-Z1. Genes showing strong expression in 18-month-old rockfish were identified as desmin, TGFBR2 (transforming growth factor-beta receptor), muscle-type creatine kinase, and cathepsin D. Expression of these genes was checked further in 6-18-30-42 month-old dark-banded rock fish. Rapid reduction of expression was observed in dystrobrevin beta and diphosphate kinase. However, expression of creatine kinase (muscle type) and cathepsin D increased as dark-banded rockfish grew, and remained even after 18 months. The results reported here demonstrate that genes related to muscles contract are expressed at an early stage of development, and genes controlling energy in muscles are predominantly expressed at a late developmental stage.
