Production from copepodite IV to adult of two euchaetid species Euchaeta plana and Paraeuchaeta russelli was measured at the southeastern sea of Korea from April to November, 2014. The mean density was $2.0ind\;m^{-3}$ for E. plana and $4.1ind\;m^{-3}$ for P. russelli, with the high contribution of copepodite V to total density. The densities of total individuals, adult females and eggs were highest in November for both species. The mean egg production rate (EPR) was $1.7eggs\;female^{-1}\;d^{-1}$ for E. plana and $3.1eggs\;female^{-1}\;d^{-1}$ for P. russelli. Both of them showed the highest EPR in September but zero EPR in summer. The mean weight-specific EPR was $0.038d^{-1}$ for E. plana and $0.079d^{-1}$ for P. russelli. The mean total production rates of E. plana and P. russelli were $5.3{\mu}g\;C\;m^{-3}\;d^{-1}$ and $17.8{\mu}g\;C\;m^{-3}\;d^{-1}$, respectively, with the largest production in November. The mean Production/Biomass ratio was $0.06d^{-1}$ for E. plana and $0.07d^{-1}$ for P. russelli, with its peak in September for both. The total production of E. plana and P. russelli was positively correlated with the density of a copepod Oncaea venusta, rather than chl-a concentration, indicating that the two copepods might be carnivores. This study evaluates the contribution of euchaetids to the copepod community in the southeastern sea of Korea.

This study is aimed to analyze the profitability of flatfish fry production farms in the Republic of Korea. The continuous and stable production of flatfish fries is one of important factors that increases the possibility of flatfish aquaculture's success. It is also the basis of aquaculture industry that estimates the quantity and quality of fishery products from aquaculture. Based on the surveyed data, production values and costs of flatfish fry production are estimated and compared to determine the profitability of flatfish fry production by farm. Results show that average return on sales of farms is 21.2%(12.4~26.3%), indicating that flatfish fry production would be profitable under the current production and market conditions. Sensitivity analyses of main variables (survival rate and selling price) indicate that the profitability of flatfish fry production farms can be significantly decreased when the survival rate and selling price would be slightly decreased.

A novel cathepsin B inhibitor-producing bacterium was isolated from marine sediments and identified based on its 16S rDNA sequence as Pseudomonas sp. strain PB01 (Accession No. EU126129). The growth and enzyme inhibitor production were investigated under various culture conditions. A mixture of organic nitrogen source was required for the optimal production, whereas both glucose and maltose proved to be the effective carbon sources for cathepsin B inhibitor production. Other optimal culture conditions included temperature range between 25 and $28^{\circ}C$, initial medium pH of 6.6, and shaking speed of 200 rpm. Under these optimal conditions, the maximum inhibitory activity from culture broth was approximately 50% after 30 h of cultivation. Additionally, kinetic study revealed that inhibitor production paralleled with cell growth, which suggested that the inhibitor may be a primary metabolite of that bacterium.

Today, many middle-sized shipbuilding companies in Korea are experiencing strong competition from shipbuilding companies in other nations. This competition is particularly affecting small- and middle-sized shipyards, rather than the major shipyards that have their own support systems and development capabilities. The acquisition of techniques that would enable maximization of production efficiency and minimization of the gap between planning and execution would increase the competitiveness of small- and middle-sized Korean shipyards. In this paper, research on a simulation-based support system for ship production management, which can be applied to the shipbuilding processes of middle-sized shipbuilding companies, is presented. The simulation research includes layout optimization, load balancing, work stage operation planning, block logistics, and integrated material management. Each item is integrated into a network system with a value chain that includes all shipbuilding processes.

Of 23 psychrotrophic bacteria isolated from the west Pacific deep-sea sediments, 19 were assigned to the $\gamma$-Proteobacteria, 3 to the <$\beta$-Proteobacteria, and 1 to the Gram-positive bacteria, as determined by their 16S rDNA sequences. Ten psychrotrophs, affiliated to the Psychrobacter, Pseudoalteromonas, and Pseudomonas genera in the $\gamma$-Proteobacteria group, were screened for lipolytic bacteria. The majority of the lipolytic isolates had growth temperatures between 4-$30^\circ{C}$, and all of them were neutrophilic, aerobic, or facultatively anaerobic, and some were able to produce multiple kinds of ectohydrolytic enzymes. The deep-sea strains Psychrobacter sp. wp37 and Pseudoalteromonas sp. wp27 were chosen for further lipase production analysis. Both strains had the highest lipase production when grown at 10 to $20^\circ{C}$; their highest lipase production occurred at the late-exponential growth stage; and the majority of the enzymes were excreted to the outside of the cells. Lipases from both strains had the same optimal reaction temperature and pH (20-$30^\circ{C}$, pH 7-8) and could retain about 60% of their highest activity at $4^\circ{C}$. Furthermore, SDS-PAGE and an in-gel activity test showed that they had the same high molecular mass of about 85 kDa.

The Korean fishery encountered a difficulty situation, due to the new regime of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and the decreasing fisheries resources in Korean waters. In addition, the coastal areas are deteriorated by industrial wastes, sewage, farming wastes and pollution from aquaculture. In this situation, it is necessary to study the TAC (total allowable catch) - based management system, the development of fishing gears and appropriate fishing methods for stock conservation, and the automation system of fishing gears for improving the efficiency of fisheries. The objective of this study is to look for an appropriate system in marine production and resource management under the new UNCLOS (United National Convention for the Law of the Sea) regime for subjects in fishing gears and methods, production system, and information, and fisheries resources management. The results of this study could be used as scientific information to maintain and develop the Korean fisheries and to establish fisheries policy for the management of fisheries resources in Korean waters.

This study studied the characteristics of cultured oyster marketing in Sacheon Bay. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, the GULDAE aquaculture is a unique production method of Sacheon Bay. Second, oysters in Sacheon Bay were low in production, but the price was more than 70% higher than in other producing areas. Third, profit is 12.5% higher and rate of return was 179.8%. Fourth, there were more out-of-market sales than other than other producing areas, and it is a bidding method. Fifth, the marketing cost was higher than the longline hanging aquaculture; however, the advantage of price offseted this point. Although the Sacheon Bay Oyster aquaculture is small, it was confirmed that it was a producing area with high profitability and a unique marketing form from other regions. Although the Sacheon Bay Oyster culture is small, it has been confirmed that it is a producing area with high profitability and shows a unique distribution form.

Recently, researches on all-electric subsea system have been in progress. This paper describes a subsea tree using a lot of electrical signal and subsea control system. The way of subsea control is classified as all-electric systems or electro hydraulic systems. One of that has more merits in terms of cost, weight, power consumption, etc. because it uses electric signal instead of hydraulic signal. This paper describes the difference of each system's power consumption and simulation. As the result, if each system applies the same number of sensors, actuators, etc. The power consumption of all-electric system's load is less than at least 400kWh/day compared to the electro hydraulic system load.
