A natural intergeneric hybrid between Rhodeus pseudosericeus and Acheilognathus signifer was collected in their sympatric area, the Jucheongang (stream), the Namhangang (river), Korea. Morphological characters as well as mitochondrial cytochrome b (mt-cyb) gene were investigated to confirm the natural hybrid origin. In the comparison of morphological characters, the natural hybrid appeared to have intermediate characters between two parental species in several key characters such as the band of dorsal fins, the color pattern of body, and the body spot and stripe. Also, the collected specimen had an incomplete lateral line with a large number of pored scales. In analysis of mt-cyb gene, it revealed that the maternal species of the natural hybrid appeared to be R. pseudosericeus due to their 100% sequence identity. Thus, such results gave convincing evidence for the occurrence of a natural intergeneric hybrid between Rhodeus pseudosericeus and Acheilognathus signifer.

A scanning electron microscopic study on the glochidium and glochidial encystment of Anodonta arcaeformis on the host fish Carassius auratus was conducted. The shape of the glochidium was apparently subtriangular and its average size was $270\;{\mu}m\;\times\;260\;{\mu}m\;\times\;145\;{\mu}m$. The glochidial shell valves were of the same size, kept together by a ligament that is 50.4 ${\mu}m$ in length and 5.5 ${\mu}m$ in width. Each of the glochidial shell valve had a long hook studded with many spines on the superior face. A large area of at the apex of the valve surrounding the base of the hook was provided with numerous small spines which became progressively smaller toward the periphery of the area. The glochidial shell valve consisted of two layers. The mantle cells line the glochidial shell valves and some of hair cells were observed. A larval thread was 2.3 ${\mu}m$ in diameter. In the artificial infection of the glochidia to one of the natural hosts, Carassius auratus, it took about three to four hours to encyst the glochidia with epithelial cells of the fish fins. The encystment method was the cell migration from the neighboring epithelial cells.

Experiments were conducted to evaluate pool boiling heat transfer performance between plain and micro finned surfaces with FC-72, which is chemically and electrically stable. Three kinds of micro fins with the dimension of $100{\mu}m\;{\times}\;10{\mu}m$, $150{\mu}m\;{\times}\;10{\mu}m$ and $200{\mu}m\;{\times}\;10{\mu}m$ (width $\times$ height) were fabricated on the surface of a silicon chip. The experiments were carried out on the liquid subcooling of 5, 10 and 15 K under the atmospheric condition. The micro finned surface with a larger fin width of $200{\mu}m$ provided a better pool boiling heat transfer performance. Also, the micro finned surfaces showed a sharp increase in heat flux with increasing wall superheat and a larger heat transfer enhancement compared to a plain surface.

During an artificial breeding as a part of restoration of the endangered Korean bitterling Acheilognathus signifer, a small number of individuals exhibiting oculocutaneous albinism were produced. We compared the pigmentation and morphology of normal and albinic bitterlings by histological examination of skin samples obtained from 10 regions on the body, fins, and eyes. There were no differences in morphometry and in general morphology of skin between them. In normal bitterlings, pigment cells were better developed in the dorsal region, the upper part of caudal peduncle region, the choroid-retinal epithelium and iris than in other areas. In the albinic bitterling, however, pigment cells were present only in three parts of the dorsal region, the caudal and dorsal fin, which had few melanin cells. Albinic bitterlings also displayed deficient pigmentation in the choroid-retina pigment epithelium and iris. Although they had different pigmentation aspects in distribution and development between normal and albinic bitterlings, melanin cells were mainly present in the dorsal regions of the skin and eyes where are exposed directly to light.

A radial heat sink, adopted to LED(light emitting diode) downlight, was optimized. Discrete transfer radiation model (DTRM) was used to calculate radiation heat transfer, and numerical model was verified with experimental results. The effects of number of fin, long fin length and middle fin length on overall thermal resistance and radiation heat transfer were analyzed. As the emissivity increased, thermal resistance decreased due to the increment of radiation heat transfer. The radial heat sink was optimized and optimum number of long fins is 19~28, optimum length of long fin is about half of radius of heat fink and optimum fin ratio is 0.4~0.7.

In this paper, the compact model for FinFET gate resistance is developed. Based on the FinFET geometry and material, the value of the gate resistance is extracted by Y-parameter analysis using 3D device simulator, Sentaurus. By dividing the gate resistance into horizontal and vertical components, the proposed gate resistance model captures the non-linear characteristics. The proposed compact model reflects the realistic gate structure which has two different materials (Tungsten, TiN) stacked. Using the proposed model, the number of fins for the minimum gate resistance can be proposed based on the variation of gate geometrical parameters. The proposed gate resistance model is implemented in BSIM-CMG. A ring-oscillator is designed, and its delay performance is compared with and without gate resistance.

Taxonomic review of the five flyingfishes, Parexocoetus mento (Valenciennes), Cheilopogon agoo (Temminck et Schlegel), Cheilopogon heterurus doederleini (Steindachner), Cheilopogon cyanopterus (Valenciennes), Hirundichthys oxycephalus (Bleeker) were carried out based on samples collected from the South sea and around sea of Jeju Island of Korea from 1996 to 1998. Parexocoetus mento (Valenciennes) and Cheilopogon cyanopterus (Valenciennes) were revealed as the unrecorded species in Korea, which were named as "Men-to-hwang-nal-chi" and "Ki-geom-nal-chi" respectively. Parexocoetus mento is differed from P. barchypterus in having no chin barbels in juveniles, and Cheilopogon cyanopterus is distinguished from C. agoo in the branched form of pectoral fin rays and from C. heterurus doederleini in the numbers of the dorsal fin ray and the color of pectoral fins.

The five species of the genus Microphysogobio in Korea are reviewed with the keys to species and their illustrations: M. longidorsalis, M. jeoni sp. nov., M. koreeneis, M. yaluensis, and M. rapidus. Microphysogobio tungtingensis uchidai was treated as a junior synonym of M. yaluensis based on having the distinct papillae of upper lip and the color pattern on body sides by the examination of the type specimens. Microphysogobio jeoni is described as a new species from the specimens collected in the Naktong River, Han River and Keum River, Korea. it is well distinguished from the related species by the slender body, undeveloped papillae of upper lip and unspotted fins. Microphysogobio yaluensis was showed the clinal variations in the number of lateral line scales and vertebrae among the populations in the western drainages of Korea. It is remarked biogeographically that the five species of Microphysogobio are all endemics to Korea with the restricted ranges.

Matured adults of chum salmon were collected from Namdae-chun River, Yangyand-gun, Kangwon-do, Korea in december of 1989 and 1990. Artificial insemination was made in the field. Hatching and neasing were cassied out in laboratories of the Yangyand Fisheries Institute and Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute : Ossification of bones of alevin, fry and smolt were investigated : 1. The newly hatched alevins, 1.80 to 2.56mm in total length, were ossified partly on parasphenoid, maxillary, dentary and opercle bones. 2. The alevin stage, the visceral bones connected with feeding and respiratory function were ossified earlier than cranium and vertebra. At swim up stage, the fry attained 3 to 4cm in total length, most of bones except cranium were ossified. 3. Teeth on the jaw bones, palatine, vomer, upper and lower pharyngeal bones were increased conspicuously when the body length were ranged from 3 to 4cm. 4. Caudal fin of hatched larvae had already seventeen occified rays and developed earlier than any other fins.

The thermal control device using solid-liquid phase change material (PCM) is designed, manufactured, and experimented in thermal environment chamber. The n-Hexadecane is selected as a PCM and its melting point is placed within the component working temperature range. The PCM container is made of Al6061 and has the thermal spreading fins inside. To simulate the working condition for on-orbit satellite the heat pipes are used to connect the heater and radiator and the PCM thermal control device (PCMTD) is installed at the middle portion of heat pipes. The thermal buffer mass (TBM), which is same configuration and volume with PCMTD, is also manufactured to compare the thermal control performance. As a result, the PCMTD is not only more efficient than TBM in their temperature control features but both mass and power of compensation heater are reduced.
