Since South Korea did not adopt the recreation fishing using right (coupon) system, there were no recreation fishing statistics. This study selected 480 fishing vessels (10.4%) of a total of 4,611 fishing vessels (as of December 2019) as a survey sample using stratified sampling. Unlike other research institutes that conducted surveys related to the amount of tide on a one-time, this survey was conducted for five months (from May to October 2020, except the month of August). The captain investigated about types of fish, size, weight, etc. to anglers. A difference from previous studies was that about 7.0 million angler population (fishing more than three times a week) had 19.4 kg of catch per person for a year while other studies showed about 25.5-52.0 kg, respectively. The total fisheries resource catch amount was analyzed to be about 95,000 tons in this study and 116,000-166,000 tons in other studies. So there was a difference of about 1.2 to 1.8 times. This study aims to lay the foundation for the development of the fishing industry by preparing accurate statistical data and securing reliable basic statistics related to the fishing industry. Also, it could be usefully used as basic policy data such as introduction of a fishing using right (coupon) system.

PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) is a DNA-derived polymer that promotes self-renewal of damaged cells and tissues as a tissue regeneration active material. PDRN is a DNA fragment cut into small sizes by various physical or chemical methods. When administered to the body, PDRN binds and stimulates the adenosine A2A receptor on the surface of tissue cells to promote cell regeneration, accelerate wound healing, and reduce pain. Although PDRN is prepared from testis or semen of fish in most cass, PDRN extraction from various plants species was performed in the present study. Among 7 tested plant species, the highest DNA yield and purity was obtained form mugwort (Chrysanthemum coronarium, C.c), followed by broccoli (Brassica oleracea, B.o). Then, we evaluated the in vitro wound healing capacity of PDRNs prepared from these two selected plants. PDRN from C.c and B.o. significantly stimulated the wound healing process at ㎍/ml range. The present study suggests that PDRN from plant species can be an effective alternative to PDRN from marine organism.

The global cod market is supposed to have weak structure with a high dependence on the supply of Russia, the United States, Norway, and China. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly disrupted the cod supply chain for the worse. Fish processing facilities in China stopped their operation, and cod demand declined due to shrinking consumption in Europe. The position of South Korea as an intermediary trade country between Russia and China strengthened due to the U.S.-China trade war and the Atlantic cod decrease in 2019. However, this global cod supply chain collapse has caused South Korea to export accumulated cod to Indonesia and Vietnam at a bargain price, showing that South Korea was unable to cope with this supply chain crisis. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate changes in the global cod supply chain and their impacts on the intermediary trade of South Korea caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. It also aims to provide implications by analyzing advanced cases in Denmark. As the cod supply chain crisis countermeasures, this study suggests that South Korea develop high value-added marine products, gain competitive advantages by solidifying the value chains of related countries, and activate export by discovering alternative markets in terms of the supply chain of the cod industry.

This study was conducted to investigate the sensory and nutritional properties of vegetable rice porridge made with Israeli carp (VRP-IC), and to compare it with commercial vegetable rice porridges (controls). The proximate composition of VRP-IC per 100 g was 82.4 g moisture, 3.9 g protein, 2.6 g lipids, and 0.9 g ash, and had a lower moisture content than that of the controls, but a higher crude protein, crude lipid, and ash content. In terms of taste, VRP-IC was higher in umami and sourness, but lower in saltiness, sweetness, and bitterness. The viscosity and hardness of VRP-IC were 13,117 mPa·s and 2,258 N/m², respectively. The total amino acid content of VRP-IC was 3,537.2 mg/100 g, with the maor amino acids being aspartic acid and glutamic acid. The mineral contents of VRP-IC per 100 g were as follows: 114 mg calcium, 70.3 mg phosphorus, 79.1 mg potassium, and 0.23 mg iron. These were all higher than those of the controls. The major fatty acids of VRP-IC were 16:0, 18:1n-9, and 18:2n-6, which were identical to those of the controls. The digestibility of VRP-IC was 86.4%, which was similar to those of the controls.

A number of studies related to underwater robots are being conducted to utilize marine resources. However, unlike ordinary drones, underwater robots have a problem that it is not easy to locate because the medium is water, not air. The monitoring and positioning program of underwater robots, an existing study for identifying underwater locations, has difficulty in locating and monitoring in small spaces because it aims to be utilized in large spaces. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a three-dimensional positioning program for continuous monitoring and command delivery in small spaces. The proposed program consists of a multi-dimensional positioning monitoring function and a ability to control the path of travel through a three-dimensional screen so that the depth of the underwater robot can be identified. Through the performance evaluation, a robot underwater could be monitored and verified from various angles with a 3D screen, and an error within the assumed range was verified as the difference between the set path and the actual position is within 6.44 m on average.

Climate change is a major global problem. Oysters, one of the most representative farmed fish in Korea, are attracting attention as candidates for blue carbon, an alternative to carbon neutrality. This study is analyzed by the SSP scenarios to determine the impact of oyster aquaculture production according to climate change. Based on the analysis, future productions of oysters are predicted by the SSP scenario. Significant differences by the SSP scenario are confirmed through predictive power tests among scenarios. Regression analysis was conducted from January 2001 to December 2014. As a result of the analysis, water temperature, water temperature quadratic term, salinity, salinity quadratic term, and month × water temperature cross term were estimated as significant variables. Oyster production which is predicted by the SSP scenario based on the significant variables from 2015 to 2022 was compared with actual production. The model with the highest predictive power was selected by RMSE and MAPE criteria. The predictive power was compared with the MDM test to determine which model was superior. As a result, based on RMSE and MAPE, the SSP1-2.6 scenario was selected as the best model and the SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5, and SSP3-7.0 scenarios all showed the same predictive power based on the MDM test. In conculusion, this study predicted oyster aquaculture production by 2030, not the distant future, due to the short duration of the analytical model. This study was found that oyster aquaculture production increased in all scenarios and there was no significant difference in predictive power by the SSP scenario.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate satisfaction degree on menu served and identify food preference of the meal served to 271 business and industry foodservice workers from 4 institutions by gender difference. The demographics indicated that male(54.6%) and female(45.4%) were about an half each, mean age was ranged from 20 to 39 years old. The workers were not contented with most of menu quality attributes served from past foodservice operation. Primary complaint was improper temperature of the meal. Most workers liked meat and fish(52.1%) the most. Sensory quality evaluation from all workers was 3.37 points out of 5 points. However, female workers rated higher on the most of menu(3.72 points) compared with that of male workers(3.35 points), indicating that satisfaction was higher in the female workers(p<0.05). Mean preference of all the menu according to food type also have shown higher in female(3.52 point) than in male(3.45 point). Best food preference according to food type considering cooking method of male was given to barley rice, boiled rice with assorted mixtures, marine product stew, and Kimchi stew. On the other hand, females cared for curried rice, hash rice, and spaghetti but males have shown low preferences to those foods females liked. Also, females liked more of fried, grilled and broiled food. However, both males and females showed indifferent taste about the food cooked with steamed and stewed. From the findings, the business and industry foodservice workers were not well satisfied with menu quality considerably and differed in food preferences by gender clearly. Therefore, the manager of foodservice institution require to consider composition of gender ratio in menu preparation along with sensory quality evaluation to lead the successful foodservice management.

Effects of artificial releases of sea cucumber around the marine ranching area in Jeollanam-do were showed very efficient by the released good seeds(total weight, 3.2g) in 'Wolhang', compared with those in 'Hwatae'. The survival rates were the higher in 'Wolhang' by 66.0% than in 'Hwatae' by 27.0%. The results indicates that the releasing effect of sea cucumber depended on the releas size. To analyze the productivity we investigated the growth and survival rates of sea cucumber according to the releasing area. Our result showed that the growth rate and survival rate was higher in 'Hwatae' than other areas. In 'Hwatae', the growth rate and survival rate were 6.2g and 32.1% respective. The results indicates that if the food supply is continued, although proceeding contamination the productivity of sea cucumber increased. Therefore, in order to enhancement and conservation of resource, bottom of fish cage should consider to the utilization.

A re-examination of Luciogobius guttatus was conducted using 84 samples, which lives on all coastal waters of Korea. As a result, 41 specimens (31.3~54.4 mm SL) collected from the west and south coasts were classified as L. martellii. The morphological features of L. martellii as follows: number of abdominal vertebrae 16; total number of vertebrae 35~37; dorsal fin base length longer than upper caudal peduncle length or equal; one free ray on its upper pectoral fin; and edge of tail fin white. Among these, the most prominent morphological difference in L. guttatus is comparing the dorsal fin base length and upper caudal peduncle length, which is also well observed in syntypes of L. martellii. We proposed a new Korean name, "Geom-jeong-mi-kken-mang-duk" referring to their color.
