  • Manful algae, Cochlodinium polykrikoides has damaged to fisheries organisms by making massive blooms mainly in the South Sea during the higher water temperature season since 1995 in Korea. Ecological and hydrodynamic studies of the species offer useful information in understanding its bloom mechanism giving promising data for the modeling and prediction of the blooms. (omitted)

  • 적조란 유해조류의 대 번식으로 바다물의 색깔이 변하는 일시적인 자연현상으로 어패류를 집단 폐사 시킨다. 유해 적조류에 의한 국내 수산업 피해가 증가함에 따라서 적조에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 특히 적조 발생 예측은 적조에 대한 피해를 최소화 시킬 수 있다. 그러나 국내의 적조 현상 예측에 대한 대부분의 연구는 단순히 적조 분류에 집중되어 있어서 적조발생 예측에는 미흡하다. 본 논문은 퍼지 추론을 이용한 새로운 적조발생 예측 방법을 제안한다.

  • The biocide sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is widely used for controlling algal growth, and this application can be extended to marine environments as well. This study evaluates the biocidal efficiency and cellular toxicity of NaOCl on the harmful dinoflagellate Cochlodinium polykrikoides, with emphasis on pigment production and antioxidant enzyme activity. The test organism showed dose-dependent decrease in growth rate on exposure to NaOCl, and the 72 h $EC_{50}$ was measured to be $0.584mg\;L^{-1}$. NaOCl significantly decreased pigment levels and chlorophyll autofluorescence intensity, indicating possible detrimental effects on the photosystem of C. polykrikoides. Moreover, it significantly increased the activities of antioxidant enzymes, suggesting the production of reactive oxygen species in the cells. These data indicate that NaOCl exerted deleterious effects on the photosynthetic machinery and induced oxidative damage in the dinoflagellate and this biocide could be effectively used for the control of algal blooms.

  • The rapid growth of algae occurs can induce the algae bloom when nutrients are supplied from anthropogenic sources such as fertilizer, animal waste or sewage in runoff the water currents or upwelling naturally. The algae blooms creates the human health problem in the environment as well as in the water resource managers including hypoxic dead zones and harmful toxins and pose challenges to water treatment systems. The algal blooms in the source water in water treatment systems affects the drinking water taste & odor while clogging or damaging filtration systems and putting a strain on the systems designed to remove algal toxins from the source water. This paper propose the emerging In-Situ self-diagnosable smart algae sensing device with wireless connectivity for smart remote monitoring and control. In this research, we developed the In-Site Algae diagnosable sensing device with wireless sensor network (WSN) connectivity with Optical Biological Sensor and environmental sensor to monitor the water treatment systems. The proposed system emulated in real-time on the water treatment plant and functional evaluation parameters are presented as part of the conceptual proof to the proposed research.

  • This study carried out phylogenetic analysis of dinoflagellate Gonyaulax polygramma which was responsible for a harmful algal bloom episode in Korea in 2004. Molecular phylogenetic tree inferred from the partial LSU rDNA data showed that G. polygramma came up among the monophyletic Gonyaulax clade, but did not have apparent genetic affiliation to other Gonyaulax species. This result appears to be consistent with characteristic morphological features of G. polygramma such as epitheca sharply tapering to the apex and thecal plates ornamented with numerous longitudinal striations.

  • Ballasting and deballasting of shipping vessels in foreign ports have been reported worldwide as a vector of introduction of non-native aquatic plants and animals. Recently, attention has turned to ballast water as a factor in the global increase of harmful algal blooms (HABs). Many species of microalgae, including harmful dinoflagellate species, can remain viable for months in dormant benthic stages (cysts) in ballast sediments. Over a period of four years, we surveyed ballast water and sediment of ships docked in two ports of Tampa Bay, Florida, USA. Sampling conditions encountered while sampling ballast water and sediments were vastly different between vessels. Since no single sample collection protocol could be applied, existing methods for sampling ballast were modified and new methods created to reduce time and labor necessary for the collection of high-quality, qualitative samples. Five methods were refined or developed, including one that allowed for a directed intake of water and sediments. From 63 samples, 1,633 dinoflagellate cysts and cyst-like cells were recovered. A native, cyst-forming, harmful dinoflagellate, Alexandrium balechii (Steidinger) F. J. R. Taylor, was collected, isolated, and cultured from the same vessel six months apart, indicating that ships exchanging ballast water in Tampa Bay have the potential to transport HAB species to other ports with similar ecologies, exposing them to non-native, potentially toxic blooms.

  • 적조란 유해조류의 일시적인 대 번식인 자연현상으로 어패류를 집단 폐사 시킨다. 적조에 의한 양식어업의 피해는 매년 발생하고 있다. 이 때문에 적조 발생을 미리 예측할 수 있으면 적조에 대한 피해를 최소화 시킬 수 있다. 적조발생 예측시 나이브베이스 분류자를 이용하면 좋은 예측결과를 얻을 수 있다. 그러나 나이브베이스를 이용한 결과는 단순한 발생 여부 만을 판별 할뿐 발생하는 적조가 어느 정도 증가 할지는 알 수 없다. 본 논문은 퍼지 추론과 나이브베이스 분류자를 이용한 새로운 적조발생 예측 방법을 제안한다. 제안방법은 적조 발생 예측의 정확률을 향상시키면서 적조생물 밀도의 증가율을 예측할 수 있다.

  • Harmful algae blooms have become a serious environmental problem in major river basins in Korea. They are known to produce various algal organic matters (AOMs) including intracellular organic matters (IOMs) and extracellular organic matters (EOMs). Generally AOMs cannot be easily removed by coagulation/flocculation process in conventional drinking water plants. AOMs produced by blue-green algae also include various toxins such as Microcystins, Anatoxin-a, and Saxitoxin known to have harmful effects on living organisms in aquatic environment. In this study, toxic effects of EOMs produced by three different algae species (Microcystis sp., Anabaena sp., and Oscillatoria sp.) on zebrafish were investigated using electroencephalography (EEG) recording method, a technology for recording brain activity. Electroencephalographic changes in zebrafish revealed that a low EOM had a negative effect on zebrafish compared to both Anabaena sp. and Oscillatoria sp. at 30 ppm EOM exposures. This result might be due to Microcystins present in EOMs produced by Microcystis sp. As a result of power spectrum density anallysis, exposure to EOMs produced by Microcystis sp. caused a state of vigilance in zebrafish. This EEG based toxicity test can be used to examine effects of harmful materials at low levels on living organisms in an aquatic system.

  • Since toxic Alexandrium catenella and non-toxic A. fraterculus are morphologically similar, they are difficult to discriminate under the light microscope. However, a novel technology, such as fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-conjugated lectin probes enables easy and rapid differentiation. Toxic A. catenella bound seven different lectins, whereas the non-toxic A. fratercuzus did not bind Arachis hypogaea (PNA) lectin. In addition, Pseudo-nitrschia species in this study were also difficult to identify to species level with light microscope techniques, but it was possible to classify them using fluorescent lectins. Pseudo-nitzschia multistriata, P. subfraudulenta and P. pungens bound Canavalia ensiformis (ConA), whereas P. subpaclfica did not, and P. pungens also bound Ricinus communis (RCA). These results imply that lectin could be used as a critical tool in the differentiation of P. multistriata, P. subfraudulenta and P. pungens. However, P. subpacifica was not differentiated by the lectins tested. Therefore, it isconcluded that lectin probes are useful for discriminating toxic A. catenella from non-toxic A. fraterculus, and for the identification of some Pseudo-nitzschia species. In addition, this method has a great potential to speed and detection between non-toxic and toxic harmful algal blooms (HABs) in Korean biotoxin monitoring systems.

  • 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.
