To elucidate the ichthyotoxic mechanisms of a harmful dinoflagellate Cochlodinium polykrikoides, biochemical and hematological responses of fish exposed to blooms were investigated. Particularly, based on our finding that oxidative damages of gill were associated with fish mortality, dysfunction of ion-transporting enzymes and secretion of gill mucus of fish exposed to this bloom species were examined.

To clarify the ichthyotoxic mechanisms of a harmful dinoflagellate Cochlodinium polykrikoides, hematological responses of the flounder Paralichthys olivaceus and red sea bream Pagrus major exposed to this algal bloom were investigated. The mortality of red sea bream was considerably larger than that of flounder, and the threshold lethal density of C. polykrikoides to the test fish was approximately 3,000 cells/ml. Blood $PO_2$declined in proportion to the increasing density of algal cells. The blood $PO_2$ of moribund fish was about $40-60\% of control test fish. Particularly, the fishes began to be killed when the blood $PO_2$ fell below 30-40 mmHg. However, the blood pH dropped almost 1.0 unit just before fish kill. Hemoglobin and hematocrit levels of fish exposed to C. polykrikoides of 5,000 cells/ml for 24 h and of moribund fish did not show great difference. The concentrations of plasma $Na^+$, $K^+$ and $Cl^-$ were slightly elevated to different magnitudes except $Ca^{2+}$ and plasma osmolality was also increased in Cochlodinium-exposed fish. In the plasma cortisol level, these values of moribund flounder and red sea bream were 4- 5 times higher than those of control fish. These results suggest that the drop of blood $PO_2$ was may be one of the principal causes of fish kill by C. polykrikoides, and the changes of other hematological parameters were secondary responses elicited by the decrease in blood $PO_2$.

The environmental characteristics in shellfish farms were investigated in the western part of Jinhae Bay, 1996. During summer, anoxia and high nutrient concentrations were found in the bottom waters of shellfish farms. The concentrations of particulate organic species in seawaters were enriched, showing an average 57.44 uM for POC, an average 5.45 uM for PON, and an average 0.42uM for PP. The sediments environment in the farms was very polluted. The concentrations of COD and AVS were more than 20 mg/g.dry and 0.5 mg/g.dry, respectively. The total sedimentation rate was high as an average $7.81g/m^2/day$ with organic matter contents of $26\%$. Oxygen consumption rate was similar to polluted area as an average of $439mg/m^2/day$. Nutrient release rates were an average of $8.25mg/m^2/day$ for nitrogen and an average of $1.38mg/m^2/day$ for phosphorous. The cluster analysis through environmental data in summer indicated that DO, nutrient in the bottom water, and AVS in the sediment were important factors to characterize the polluted environmental site.

우리나라 연안에서 Cochlodinium polykrikoides 적조는 1982년 낙동강하구에서 최초로 발생하였으며, 1988년까지는 진해만과 그 부근해역에서 발생하였다. 그러나 1989년 이후부터는 진해만에서는 거의 발생하지 않고 충무, 거제, 남해, 여수 둥의 남해안의 중부해역에서 주로 발생하였고, 1995년부터는 동해연안까지 발생해역이 확대되었다. 그리고, 1998, 1999년도에는 서해연안에서도 이종에 의한 적조가 발생하였다. C. polykrikoides 적조 발생건수는 매년 증가하는 추세를 보였으며, 발생시기는 $7\~10$월로 특히 9월에 집중 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 적조지속기간도 매년 증가하여 처근에는 한달 이상 지속되는 양상을 보이고 있으며, 적조밀도 역시 '91년까지는 최고 5,000cells $mL^{-1}$를 초과하지 않았으나, '99년도에는 43,000 cells $mL^{-1}$까지 나타나 매년 증가하는 추세를 보였다. 한편 C. polykrikoides적조는 '82년과 '84년에는 다양한 규조류 및 편모조류와 함께 발생하는 혼합적조로 출현하였으나, 이후에는 주로 단독적조로 출현함으로써 C. polykrikoides 적조가 혼합적조에서 단독적조로 발전해 갔음을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같이 C. polykrikoides 적조는 발생해역이 우리나라 전연 안으로 확대되고, 적조밀도가 높아지며, 발생기간이 $1\~2$개월로 장기간 지속하고 있는 양상을 나타내고 있으며 특히 양식산업이 성행하고 있는 충무, 남해도, 거제도, 여수 및 거문도 연안에서 $8\~9$월에 자주 적조를 형성하므로서 양식산업 발전에 큰 위협이 되고 있다.

The west coast of Northern Borneo is strongly influenced by Asian monsoon. Present research using the satellite ocean color (OC) remote sensing has identified some interesting oceanographic phenomena in this area that could be related to the harmful algal blooms (HAB). Occurrence of seasonal upwelling event was noticed off the northern tip of Borneo Island that could be related to the northeast monsoon wind. Harmful algal blooms by Pyrodinium bahamense var. compressum occurred since 1976. Subsequently, during December 2003, there was a report of new HAB by Cochlodinium polykrikoides in Northern Borneo. Analysis of OC images revealed that the Cochlodinium bloom had very high chlorophyll a signal and strong absorption characteristics. Results showed that the Baram River plume and upwelling at Northern Borneo were the source of nutrient for the Cochlodinium bloom in the offshore region. Ocean color images of 2004 showed that the bloom from Northern Borneo had crossed the Balabac Straits, reaching Palawan Island in Philippine. Due to the possibility of transboundary HAB problem, we propose a regional HAB monitoring network for an effective HAB management.

A new method was proposed to control Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) by a biosurfactant sophorolipid. The effect of sophorolipid on the growth, motility, precipitation, and recovery of algal cells was investigated for four common HAB species, Scripsiella trochoidea, Prorocentrum minimum, Cochlodinium polykrikoides, and Heterosigma akashiwo. The motility and growth of algal cells were inhibited significantly at the concentration of 20 and 5 mg/l sophorolipid, respectively, and no recovery was observed under the above concentrations. The concentration of 20 mg/l sophorolipid was considered to be an effective concentration for the mitigation of HABs. A sedimentation test suggested that the maximum precipitation occurred at the end of 1 h, and the algicidal effect of sophorolipid was observed by a microscope. Comparative study showed that sophorolipid had marked algicidal capability. Analysis on biodegradability, toxicity, and cost effectiveness further demonstrated the potential of sophorolipid in future HABs mitigation.

황토에 의한 Cochlodinium 종의 제거효과실험을 실내와 현장조사를 통하여 실시하였다. 실내실험은 Cochiodinium 적조생물을 배양하여 황토 및 이를 산처리로 활성화시켜 살포농도를 $2\;g/\ell$에서 $10\lg/\ell$로하여 제거효율을 조사하였다. 황토의 적조생물제 거효과는 살포농도 $2\;g/\ell$에서 $43\%$, $6\;g/\iota$에서 $64\%$로 점차 향상되기 시작하여 $10g/{\ell}$에서는 살포 60분후 $88\%$의 제거효과를 나타냈다. 현장조사는 Cochlodinium 적조가 빈발한 통영 활목-오비도해역에서 1996년 9월에 2회 실시되었다. 황토살포 전후로 해서 실시된 조사에서도 역시 황토살포 30분후에 Cochlodinium 적조생물이 $72\~83\%$가 제거됨으로써 좋은 제거효과를 나타냈다. 수질인자중 수온과 pH는 살포전후 변화가 없었으나 용존산소, 화학적산소요구량 및 클로로필 a의 농도는 다소 감소하였고 부유물질은 증가하였다. 부영양화 인자중 용존무기인은 살포전후 농도변화가 없는 반면, 용존무기질소는 살포후가 살포전에 비해 다소 감소하였다. 따라서 황토살포는 $10\;g/{\ell}$전후로 살포하는 것이 적조생물 제거효과에 바람직하며 수질에도 큰 영향이 없는 것으로 조사되었다.

Microcystis sp. is one of the most common harmful cyanobacteria that release toxic substances. Counting algal cells is often used for effective control of harmful algal blooms. However, Microcystis sp. is commonly observed as a colony, so counting individual cells is challenging, as it requires significant time and labor. It is urgent to develop an accurate, simple, and rapid method for counting algal cells for regulatory purposes, estimating the status of blooms, and practicing proper management of water resources. The flow cytometer and microscope (FlowCAM), which is a dynamic imaging particle analyzer, can provide a promising alternative for rapid and simple cell counting. However, there is no accurate method for counting individual cells within a Microcystis colony. Furthermore, cell counting based on two-dimensional images may yield inaccurate results and underestimate the number of algal cells in a colony. In this study, a three-dimensional cell counting approach using a novel model algorithm was developed for counting individual cells in a Microcystis colony using a FlowCAM. The developed model algorithm showed satisfactory performance for Microcystis sp. cell counting in water samples collected from two rivers, and can be used for algal management in fresh water systems.

The effects of Coehlodinium polykrikoides on the gill of red sea bream, Pagrus major, were examined to clarify the ichthyotoxic mechanisms of this plankton species. The gill of fish exposed to dense blooms over 3,000 cells/mL for 24 h showed severe epithelial separation: a severe edema was found in the secondary lamellar epithelium and interlamellar regions of primary filament. In addition, lipid peroxidation of gill tissue in Coehlodinium-exposed fish was about 2.5 times higher than that of control. The composition of glycoproteins in the gill mucus of Coehlodinium-exposed fish was also changed. These results suggest that the loss of structural integrity of cell membranes in fish gill may be deeply involved in fish death by C. polykrikoides.
