  • This is the first report of Chaetodontoplus melanosoma, belonging to the family Pomacanthidae, collected in Korea. The specimen (123.1 mm in standard length) was caught in the coastal waters of Jejudo Island by a trammel net on 23 February 2010. This species was characterized by the following morphological traits: 26 dorsal fin rays, 16 pectoral fin rays, 6 pelvic fin, 21 anal fin rays, no blue strips on the body, no markings behind the eye, and an egg-shaped faint black spot on the base of the pectoral fin. We suggest a new Korean name "Geom-eun-cheong-jul-dom" for C. melanosoma.

  • Improving transportation accessibility on islands is closely related to regional development. Currently, the government is constructing Ulleung Airport as part of the 6th Airport Mid- to Long-term Development Plan. Similar to the case of Jeju Airport in 2016, severe congestion occurs at passenger terminals upon flight resumption after cancellations at airports on islands. Therefore, considering the cancellation rate at island airports is important. This study investigates the conditions leading to increased cancellation rates at Ulleung Airport, with the research results predicting frequent cancellations during the winter season. The research methodology involved examining airport construction plans, aircraft performance, airport de-icing capabilities, and also included consideration of weather conditions. Ulleung Island is a representative snowfall area, and sufficient snow removal capacity must be secured. However, the current plan's snow removal capacity is insufficient, leading to anticipated high cancellation rates. Therefore, measures to mitigate passenger inconvenience caused by increased cancellations and methods to reduce the cancellation rate are explored. With Ulleung Airport scheduled to open in 2027, there is ample time to implement supplementary measures to reduce the cancellation rate and minimize passenger inconvenience.

  • Using the data from the sea water monitoring system installed at the Ieodo Ocean Research Station, we have analyzed the water properties around the station as well as the characteristics of the fresh water from the Changjiang River and the influence of typhoons on the sea water. In general, the accuracy and stability of the temperature data are high, but those of the salinity data are worse than the specification of the instruments. The daily variation of temperature and salinity is mainly controlled by the vertical motion of a water column due to semi-diurnal tide and diurnal change in the solar insolation. Seasonal change is prominent in temperature data. The freshwater from the Changjiang River is the main cause of large salinity variation. In August 2003 and August 2004, about 10 days before fresh water was observed near the Jeju Island, low salinity water was observed at the Ieodo Station. On the other hand, in July 2005 fresh water was observed at the station but not at around the Jeju Island. In other words, the fresh water observed at the Ieodo Station does not always expand to the Jeju Island. Two strong typhoons passed by the station in September 2003 and August 2004. The effects of the typhoons were lasted for 3 to 4 days.

  • An epiphytic bladed member of the Bangiales was found growing in Christchurch (South Island, New Zealand). Molecular sequence data and morphological comparisons revealed that the New Zealand specimens belong to the species Pyropia koreana (M. S. Hwang & I. K. Lee) M. S. Hwang, H. G. Choi, Y. S. Oh & I. K. Lee. This is the first record of Py. koreana in the southern hemisphere and a new record of an introduced species in New Zealand.

  • This study deals with the traffic accident of circular intersections. The purpose of the study is to develop the accident models by traffic violation type. In pursuing the above, this study gives particular attention to analyzing various factors that influence traffic accident and developing such the optimal models as Poisson and Negative binomial regression models. The main results are the followings. First, 4 negative binomial models which were statistically significant were developed. This was because the over-dispersion coefficients had a value greater than 1.96. Second, the common variables in these models were not adopted. The specific variables by model were analyzed to be traffic volume, conflicting ratio, number of circulatory lane, width of circulatory lane, number of traffic island by access road, number of reduction facility, feature of central island and crosswalk.

  • Today, seaside village has been met with much difficulty from aggravation of fishing conditions including decrease of fishery resources, marine products market opening, reduction of coastal fishing ground. Thus, seaside village tourism can become an useful alternative to revitalize the local community. This study deals with on the tourism activities based on motive of tourist to Seaside Villages in Jeju Island. And it will be find out though the cross analysis of tourism motivation factors and tourism activities factors. With 298 effective responses gathered from an on-site survey. The statistical analysis of the data was conducted using techniques of frequency analysis, factor analysis, cluster analysis, and canonical analysis. The tourism motivation and activities were conformed by Chi-Square Analysis and ANOVA analysis. For the growth of seaside village, many tourist must visit four seasons and tourism facilities and programs will be develop as seaside village experience activities, marine leisure activities, and circumference inquiry activities.

  • Actiniarians were collected from the rocks and sand bed of Jejudo Island, Ulleungdo Island, and Wangdolcho in Korean waters from 2004 to 2009. They were classified as two species of two families belonging to the suborders Endocoelantheainea and Nynantheae. Especially, suborder Endocoelantheainea, with distinct development of mesenteries, was firstly added to Korean athenarian fauna with the species, Halcurias carlgreni McMurrich, 1901. Calliactis polypus (Forsk$\aa$l, 1775) showing the commensalism with hermit crab, was easily distinguished from C. japonica by external features and the composition of cnidae. These two species were described in detail with tables and figures.

  • In spite of the government policies and incentives to revitalize rural areas, we still have a lot of problems such as the environmental degradation in rural areas, widening gap in living conditions between urban and rural areas, and decreasing rural populations. This paper aims to suggest a new planning model for ecotourism based rural villages and develop a village revitalization plan for Jangwha-ri in Gangwha Island. The new model emphasizes sustainable development based on local indigenous resources and resident initiatives.

  • In these days, the pollution of marine environment near island at Korean coastal zone caused by the trash, human waste and livestocks excreta become series problem. One of the most economic and efficient way to prevent this pollution problem is to set up island circulating incineration system. In this paper, the results of feasibility study on the application of turtle boat hull form to the incinearting vessel has been summarized especially for the resistance and course keeping point of view.

  • Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) was identified form CTV-infected early satsuma mandarin (Citus unshiu) and yuzu (C.junos) by RT-PCR. The total RNAs were isolated from citrus bark and seaf tissues infected with CTV and reverse transcription was followed with primers designed for amplifying CTV coat protein gene. DNA fragments 738 bp were amplified by RT-PCR and these products were colned for sequence analysis. Based on the sequence analysis, this PCR product has 97% sequence homology to CTV (T-385) CP gene isolated from USA. RT-PCR assay for CTV detection was more sensitivity than ELISA assay which was done with anti-CTV CP antibody. This is the frist report about CTV identification in Cheju island Korea.
