Unarmored and thin-walled dinoflagellates were collected from brackish and coastal waters of Korea from August 2019 to August 2021. A total of 10 species belonging to orders Sussiales and Gymnodiniales were isolated and established as clonal cultures. Of them, five species (Biecheleria brevisulcata, Lepidodinium chlorophorum, Karlodinium decipiens, Kirithra asteri, and Wangodinium sinense) are newly recorded in Korea and examined using a light microscope (LM) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Their molecular phylogeny was inferred from LSU rDNA sequences. Here, we present taxonomic information, morphological features, and molecular phylogenetic positions of these unrecorded dinoflagellate species.

호형 사주는 동해안에서 흔히 분포하는 지형특징으로 고파랑시를 제외하고 리드미컬한 형상을 지속적으로 유지한다. 하지만, 2019년 9, 10월에 동해안에 직 간접적 영향을 미친 연속적인 4개의 태풍으로 인해 해안선과 평행한 연안사주가 형성되었고 해안선 부근에 침식과 퇴적이 반복되는 패턴을 보였지만 전반적인 해안선 후퇴가 발생하였다(약 2 m). 이와 같은 연속적인 폭풍파랑으로 인한 지형변화와 각 폭풍(NE-E 입사파) 이벤트의 영향을 모의하기 위해 폭풍 사상시 해빈의 침식 모의에 널리 사용되는 XBeach를 사용하였다. 개선된 XBeach 수치모의를 위해 최신 계수보정 연구 동향에 따라 계수보정이 실시되었으며, 이로부터 도출된 최적의 계수 값을 수치 모의에 적용하였다. 모델의 입력값으로 사용된 파랑, 조석 및 폭풍 사상 전후 수심 자료와 최적의 계수 값을 활용한 결과, 해안선 부근의 침식 및 퇴적 반복패턴(BSS = 0.77(침식 단면), 0.87(퇴적단면))과 해안선과 평행한 연안 사주의 형성을 성공적으로 모의하였다. 각 태풍의 최대 입사파고 도달 시 수치 모의된 전체 퇴적물 이동 벡터 및 지형변화 분석결과, 입사 파향이 호형 사주의 거동에 상당한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 유의파고 크기뿐만 아니라 고파랑의 지속시간 또한 퇴적물 이동량의 중요한 요인으로 판단 된다. 하지만 모델링 결과, 내측 쇄파대(inner surfzone)의 지형변화 및 연안 사주의 마루의 정확한 위치 예측을 위해서는 추가적인 보정과정이 필요함을 시사한다.

The geomorophology of the tidal near $K\breve{u}$m river estuary on the west coast of Korea was studied using satellite images. There Landsat image of different tidal moment were geometrically corrected to be overlapped one another. Then topographic contours were extracted for the analysis with concept of 3-D. According to the morphological analysis, the tidal flats around $K\breve{u}$m river estuary area can be classified in three morphologically different groups: one is developped in a belt type along the shore; another is a delta type in the estuary; the other is developped between the shore line and islands. The morphological characteristics of the tidal flats in the study area seems to be mainly influenced by the tidal dynamics which are very storg on the weatern coastal zone of Korea. However the waves and human activities seem also to be important in some part of the area.

Kushia zosteraphila Harris V.A. & Iwasaki, 1996 is newly collected and described from macroalgae in the intertidal region of Gijang-gun, along the southeastern coastal region of Korea. Kushia zosteraphila can be distinguished from congeners by following morphological characteristics: the length of the first dorsal seta similar with the second dorsal seta of female P5, the length to width ratio of the female caudal ramus, and the presence of a conspicuous comb on the accessory lobe of the male antennule. Although there are some minor discrepancies, the main diagnostic characteristics of the specimen from the study area are well-matched with the original description. We herein provide detailed morphological descriptions and illustrations of this species. According to a survey of the location of the reported porcellidiid species in Korea, this specimen is the second record in Korean waters of the genus Kushia. A key to species of the family Porcellidiidae in Korea is provided. A partial sequence of the mitochondrial COI gene was obtained and provided as a DNA barcode for this species.

A new and a unique Brachionus rotifer was found in Hwajinpo coastal lagoon in Gangwon Province, South Korea. This Brachionus certainly originated from the wild rather than from aquaculture stations because Hwajinpo coastal lagoon has been under rigorous control as a military protected area and therefore could not have been contaminated by aquaculture stations. The new strain was identified as Brachionus rotundiformis based upon its morphological characteristics. The parthenogenetic female of this new rotifer strain typically shows characters similar to those of B. rotundiformis, such as the pot shape of the body, rounded dorsal plate compared with flattened ventral plate, elliptical mictic egg, four frontal spines, six pointed occipital spines, non-nodal foot, two toes, trophi typical of the Brachionus genus with five uncus plates resembling comb teeth, one wide symmetrical manubrium and ramus, and no stiffened spine as is seen in freshwater Brachionus rotifers. Moreover, its lorica was rather small in size compared with other common rotifer strains that serve as live-food organisms (Guam, Thai, and Bali strains). This new and unique Korean brackish rotifer, a B. rotundiformis strain, was therefore named the National Fisheries Research and Development Institute (NFRDI) $N^{\circ}1$ rotifer strain.

This is a review paper, assessing progress reported in a Special Issue (Prandle and Lane, 2000) of Coastal Engineering focusing on simulation of SPM in the North Sea, against issues over a diverse range of shelf seas and their coastal margins. The broad objectives of reproducing the characteristics of sediment fluxes off an open coast and relating these to tidal and wave forcing were achieved. However, accurate computation of these fluxes remains sensitive to largely empirical coefficients used in determining erosion and deposition rates. Bed roughness strongly influences both these coefficients and the associated near-bed current magnitudes (including wave impact thereon). Bed roughness can change significantly over a tidal cycle and dramatically over seasons or in the course of a major event. Accurate simulation of sediment fluxes on a day-to-day basis is constrained by dependency on the initial distribution of mobile sediments. The latter depends on rates and locations of original sources and the time history of preceding events. Remote sensing via aircraft could provide data for assimilation into such models to circumvent these constraints. The approaches described here can be readily applied to other coastal regions to indicate the likely distributions and pathways of known sediment sources. However quantitative simulations will require an associated observational programme. A subsequent stage is to understand the evolving balance between the forecasted sediment movement - the resulting morphological adjustments and thence modifications to the prevailing tidal current and wave regimes.

Bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops sp.) commonly inhabit Korean waters, including the coastal waters of Jeju Island. However, their taxonomic position was unclear because of the validity of this genus. The genus Tursiops has recently been determined to comprise two species: the common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) and the Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops aduncus). To confirm the taxonomic position of bottlenose dolphins frequenting the coastal waters of Jeju Island, the external morphology and osteology of specimens from Jeju Island were examined. Photographs of free-swimming individuals were also used for determining external morphological characters. The cranial and meristic measurements fell within the ranges of T. aduncus. Osteological ratios were also consistent with those of T. aduncus. The presence of a prominent ventral spot was observed among some individuals. As a result, the dolphins mainly distributed in the coastal waters of Jeju Island were identified as Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphins (T. aduncus) in terms of their cranial characters and ventral spotting. We propose a new Korean name, 'Nambang-keun-dol-go-rae'.

This is the first report of Pterygotrigla multiocellata from the family Triglidae, collected in Korea. The specimen (314 mm in standard length) was caught in a gill net in the coastal waters of Jeju Island on 11 February 2010. This species is characterized by the following morphological traits: head large and triangular, bony plates absent along the base of the second dorsal fin, antrorse rostral spine long, and cleithral spine long. We suggest a new Korean name, "Gin-ppul-mit-seong-dae" for P. multiocellata.
