낙동강 유역에 조성된 신규습지에서 서식환경에 대한 어류의 분포 특성을 평가하고, 이를 기반으로 한 관리방안 도출을 위해 42개 습지에서 환경요인의 측정과 어류 조사를 시행하였다. 조사 기간 동안 총 30종의 어류가 출현하였으며, 이 중에서 배스(Micropterus salmoides)와 블루길(Lepomis macrochirus)과 같은 외래어종의 비율이 상대적으로 높았다. 특히, 밀어(Rhinogobius brunneus)나 끄리(Opsariichthys uncirostris amurensis), 피라미(Zacco platypus) 등의 어류는 흐름이 있는 환경을 선호하기 때문에 배스가 우점하는 습지(정체수역)에서 상대적으로 낮은 밀도를 가지는 것으로 사료된다. SOM (Self-Organizing Map)을 활용한 패턴분석 결과, 각 습지의 서식환경 특성에 따라 어류 종의 출현빈도가 상이한 것으로 분석되었다. 어류 종의 분포는 각 습지의 수심 변화와 수생식물 피도에 민감하게 영향 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 수온이나 pH, 용존산소 등의 이화학적 요인 변화에 대한 영향은 적었다. 특히 수생식물의 피도는 어류의 종다양성이나 밀도에 강한 영향을 주는 것으로 분석되었으며, 수변식생이 부족한 습지에서는 어류가 적은 풍부도와 다양성을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과를 기반으로 평가할 때 어류 등의 생물다양성 증진을 위해 호안사면의 높은 인공성이나 수변식생의 부족한 습지 등은 개선이 필요할 것으로 사료되며, 건강성 확보를 위한 지속가능한 관리방안이 마련되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

서울시 한강으로 유입되는 하천의 어류군집 특성 분석을 위해 2016년 5월부터 2017년 4월까지 조사하였다. 자연형으로 복원된 하천은 우이천, 당현천, 청계천, 양재천, 목감천, 도림천, 홍제천 등이다. 조사 기간 동안 21개 지점에서 족대와 투망으로 채집된 어류는 총 10과 41종이었다. 한반도 고유종에 속하는 어종은 줄납자루(Acheilognathus yamatsutae), 가시납지리(Acheilognathus gracilis), 중고기(Scrcocheilichthys nigripinnis morii), 몰개(Squalidus japonicus coreanus), 참갈겨니(Zacco koreanus), 꺽지(Coreoperca herzi), 얼룩동사리(Odontobutis interruta) 등 7종 이었으며 고유화빈도가 17.1%이었다. 국외에서 도입된 외래종은 비단잉어(Cyprinus carpio, Fancy type), 금붕어 (Carassius auratus, Gold fishh), 떡붕어(Carassius cuvieri), 블루길(Lepomis macrochirus), 배스(Micropterus salmoides) 등 5종(12.2%)이었다. 각 조사 지점별 우점종은 피라미(Zacco platypus), 붕어(Carassius auratus), 납자루 (Acheilognathus lanceolatus), 가시납지리(Acheilognathus gracilis), 대륙송사리(Oryzias sinensis) 등이었다. 종다양도 지수, 균등도지수 및 종풍부도 지수에서 양제천이 다른 조사 하천에 비해 지수가 높아 안정적인 군집 상태를 나타내었 다. 수질에 대한 내성도 guild에서 민감종이 3종(7.3%), 중간종 16종(39.0%), 내성종 22종(53.7%)이었다. 식성에서 충식성은 12종(29.3%), 잡식성 23종(56.1%), 육식성 6종(14.6%)으로 잡식성이 매우 풍부하였다.

Twenty-nine wetlands (20 river type and 9 lake type wetlands) in Gyeongsangnam-do were investigated to understand the characteristics of fish assemblages by the wetland type and to suggest management strategies. As a result, 10.3±4.8 species were collected from river type wetlands on average (±SD) and 9.1±4.1 species from lake type wetlands. Thus, there was no significant difference in the number of species between them (Mann-Whitney U test, P>0.05). However, the species that constitute the fish assemblage showed statistically significant differences between the two wetland types (PERMANOVA, Pseudo-F=2.9555, P=0.007). Furthermore, the species that contribute the most to each type of fish assemblage were Zacco koreanus (river type, 28.51%) and Lepomis macrochirus (lake type, 23.21%), respectively (SIMPER). The results of the NMDS analysis using the fish assemblage by place classified the species into three groups (river type, lake type, and others). The current wetland management is only focused on endangered species, but this study shows a difference in fish assemblage by wetland type. Therefore, a management system based information on endemic species, exotic species and major contribution species should be provided. Furthermore, the classification of some types of wetlands based on the present topography was found to be ambiguous, and wetland classification using living creatures can be used as a complementary method. This study has limitations because only two types of wetlands were analyzed. Therefore, a detailed management method that can represent every type of wetland should be prepared through the research of all types of wetlands in the future.

진해만에서 출현하는 자어에 대한 계절별 군집 변동을 파악하기 위해 2015년과 2016년의 2월(겨울철), 5월(봄철), 8월(여름철), 그리고 11월(가을철)까지 계절별로 수행하였다. 조사기간 동안 출현한 자어는 종 수준까지 총 24과 28종이 출현하였다. 조사기간 동안 출현한 우점종은 청어(Clupea pallasii), 꼼치(Liparis tanakae), 돛양태과 sp. (Callionymidae sp.), 청보리멸(Sillago japonica), 세줄베도라치(Ernogrammus hexagrammus), 그리고 멸치(Engraulis japonica)로 나타났으며, 이들 6종은 조사기간 중 출현한 자어 전체 출현개체수의 77.6%를 차지하였다. 우점종 중 청어와 꼼치는 2015년과 2016년의 겨울철에 출현한 반면에 청보리멸은 여름철에 출현하였다. 종 다양도 지수는 2월과 8월에 높았고 5월에 낮게 나타났다. 조사기간 동안 출현한 자어의 출현개체수를 바탕으로 nMDS 분석을 실시한 결과 계절에 따른 4개의 그룹으로 구분되었다. 본 연구결과 진해만의 자어 군집은 계절에 따른 수온변화와 산란에 참여하는 어종에 따라서 변동하였으며, 잠도와 칠전도 북부해역에서 높은 출현량을 보여 이 지역이 진해만의 주요 산란장으로 이용되고 있음을 의미한다.

The objectives of the present study were to examine the antioxidant activity of fractions with different isoelectric points from salmon enzymatic hydrolysates and obtain peptide fractions of sufficient amounts with higher antioxidant peptide fraction, which could be applied to the food and animal model systems. The salmon enzymatic hydrolysates were fractionated on the basis of the amphoteric nature of sample peptides by preparative isoelectric focusing without toxic solvents and reagents, which is termed autofocusing. Acidic and basic fractions showed higher 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity than the other fractions. The basic fractions showed higher hydroxyl (OH) radical scavenging activity. The weak acidic and weak basic fractions showed higher oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values than the acidic and basic fractions. The acidic fraction showed higher metal chelating activity than other fractions. The acidic fraction suppressed lipid oxidation in the cooked patties to a greater extent than other fractions. These results suggest that peptides fractions from salmon enzymatic hydrolysate are effective antioxidant, and that autofocusing could be useful to increase antioxidant activity for application to food and animal model systems.

In this research, a novel and efficient quinoline thioacetamide functionalized magnetic graphene oxide composite (GO@Fe3O4@QTA) was synthesized and utilized for dispersive magnetic solid phase preconcentration of Cd(II) and Ni(II) ions in urine and various food samples. A number of diverse methods were employed for characterization of the new nanosorbent. The design of experiments approach and response surface methodology were applied to monitor and find the parameters that affect the extraction performance. After sorption and elution steps, the concentrations of target analytes were measured by employing FAAS. The highest extraction performance was achieved under the following experimental conditions: pH, 5.8; sorption time, 6.0 min; GO@Fe3O4@QTA amount, 17 mg; 2.4 mL 1.1 mol L-l HNO3 solution as the eluent and elution time, 13.0 min. The detection limit is 0.02 and 0.2 ng mL-1 for Cd(II), and Ni(II) ions, respectively. The accuracy of the new method was investigated by analyzing two certified reference materials (sea food mix, Seronorm LOT NO 2525 urine powder). The interfering study revealed that there are no interferences from commonly occurring ions on the extractability of target ions. Finally, the new method was satisfactorily employed for rapid extraction and determination of target ions in urine and various food samples.

무등산국립공원의 어류 분포 양상을 밝히고 보전방안을 마련하기 위해 2014년부터 2016년까지 조사를 실시하였다. 조사기간 동안 총 8개 지점에서 족대와 투망으로 채집된 어류는 6과 21종이였다. 우점종은 갈겨니(Zacco temminckii, 43.0%), 아우점종은 버들치(Rhynchocypris oxycephalus, 15.1%), 그 다음은 피라미(Z. platypus, 11.2%), 돌고기 (Pungtungia herzi, 10.1%), 긴몰개(Squalidus gracilis majimae, 8.9%), 참갈겨니(Z. koreanus, 4.5%) 등의 순으로 우세하였다. 한국고유종은 13종(61.9%)으로 출현비율이 높았으며, 멸종위기종과 외래종은 서식하지 않았다. 군집구조에서 영산강 수계 지점들(St. 1~7)과 섬진강 수계 지점(St. 8)은 뚜렷이 구별되었으며, 영산강 수계는 다시 최상류 지점들(St. 1, 2, 4, 6, 7)과 중･상류 지점들(St. 3, 5)로 나누어졌다. 연도별 출현 종수는 19~20종으로 유사하였으나 개체수는 2014년 3,366개체, 2015년 2,670개체, 2016년 3,429개체로 2015년이 2014년과 2016년보다 20% 이상 적었다. 이러한 원인은 2015년이 다른 년도에 비해 낮은 강수량으로 하천수위가 급격히 낮아져 개체수가 급격히 감소하였기 때문인 것으로 추정되었다. 조사기간 동안 8개 지점 중 3개 지점은 하천공사가 이루어져 어류 서식지가 교란되었는데, 특히 저서성 어류가 큰 영향을 받았다.

본 연구는 선행된 연구자료의 어류군집을 이용하여 강릉남대천 내 이입종의 현황을 파악하고, 수생태계에 악영향을 미칠 수 있는 잠재적 침습성을 평가하고자 실시하였다. 강릉남대천에 서식하고 있는 국내 타수계 이입종은 12종으로 조사되었으며, 1982년 이후로 지속적으로 증가하는 추세를 나타냈다. 이입종의 FISK 평가 결과 피라미 (Zacco platypus)와 참붕어 (Pseudorasbora parva)가 높은 침습성을 보이는 것으로 분석되었다. FISK 질문의 답변에 대한 신뢰도 값은 평균 3.2 (3.06±0.16~3.42±0.13)로 분석되었으며, 최대 신뢰도 값이 4인 것을 고려할 때, 상대적으로 높은 수준을 나타내었다. 조사지점별 물리적 서식지 평가 (Qualitative Habitat Evaluation Index; QHEI) 결과 평균 146 (88~171)으로 최적의 서식처 환경을 유지하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 지점별 하천 인근 토지이용률과 QHEI, 이입종 출현빈도를 구분한 결과 하천의 고도가 낮아질수록 QHEI 값은 감소하는 결과를 나타내었으며, 토지이용 측면에서는 산림지역이 감소하고, 도심지역이 점차 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 어류군집, QHEI, 하천 인근 토지이용률, 이입종간의 상관관계 분석을 실시한 결과 하천 상·하류간의 연속성을 나타내는 고도와 지점별 종수 (r= -0.782, p=0.0127), 종수와 산림지역 (r= - 0.737, p=0.0234), QHEI와 도심지역 (r= - 0.292, p=0.446)과는 음의 상관성을 나타내었으며, 타수계 이입종의 경우 도심지역과는 양의 상관성 (r=0.313, p=0.412)을 나타내었으나 통계적으로는 유의하지 않은 것으로 분석되었다.

The objective of this study was to describe the development and testing of an initial ecological health assessment model, based on the index of biological integrity (IBI) using fish assemblages, before establishing the final and currently used model for ecological health assessment, conservation and management of freshwater fish in Korea. The initial fish IBI model was developed during 2004~2006 and included 10 metrics, and in 2007 the final IBI 8-metric model was established for application to streams and rivers in four major Korean watersheds. In this paper, we describe how we developed fish sampling methods, determined metric attributes and categorized tolerance guilds and trophic guilds during the development of the multi-metric model. Two of the initial metrics were removed and the initial evaluation categories were reduced from six to four (excellent, good, fair, poor) before establishing the final national fish model. In the development phase, IBI values were compared with chemical parameters (BOD and COD as indicators of organic matter pollution) and physical habitat parameters to identify differences in IBI model values between chemical and physical habitat conditions. These processes undertaken during the development of the IBI model may be helpful in understanding the modifications made and contribute to creating efficient conservation and management strategies for stream environments to be used by limnologists and fish ecologists as well as stream/watershed managers.

본고에서는 『자류주석』어별류에 나타나는 어류 명칭에 대한 한자학적 접근으로 먼저『자류주석』에 나타나는 다양한 어류가 어떠한 의미 기준으로 분류·수록하였는지 살펴보고, 『자류주석』의 한문 주석을 통해 어류의 종류 및 특징을 고찰하였다. 그리고 『자류주석』한문 주석만으로 어류의 종류와 특징을 밝히기 어려운 경우 『우해이어보』·『자산어보』·『난호어목지』등의 문헌 자료를 참고하여 어류의 속성을 파악하여 각 어류가 지니는 다양한 명칭 및 이름의 어원 등에 대한 의미를 분석하였다. 『자류주석』어별류에 나타나는 어종은 ‘슈어’, ‘방어’, ‘련어’, ‘청어’, ‘부어’ 등으로 44종이다. 이러한 어종의 명칭은 대부분 ‘-어’계의 어휘 구조를 가지고 있고, ‘-치’계는 ‘쥰치’로 하나 밖에 없다. 그리고 ‘쑈가리’, ‘젹이’, ‘모묻이’, ‘구’, ‘가물티’ 등은 기타 어휘 구조도 12개 존재한다. 그리고 『자류주석』어류 명칭은 ‘鱘’, ‘鯼’, ‘䱕’ 등 한자어 어류 명칭이 많았고, 참조한 문헌에서 한글 또는 다른 한자어로 사용되는 이명(異名), 별명(別名), 속명(俗名) 등의 다양한 어류 명칭을 살펴볼 수 있다. 기본적으로 표준어형을 바탕으로 지역에 따른 다양한 방언형이 나타나며, 색깔, 모양, 크기, 맛과 질, 서식지, 습성, 촉감, 용도 등에 따라 다양한 명명 어휘가 발달해 있었다. 그리고 이 중에는 『표준국어대사전』이나 19세기 어류 총서인 『우해이어보』·『자산어보』·『난호어목지』에 수록되지 않은 어종도 있었으며, 이후 잡지나 신문에 게재된 기사 내용을 통해 그 흔적을 찾아볼 수 있는 어종도 있었다. 이처럼 바다 생물어 중 어류 명칭 어휘의 목록체계화 작업은 우리말의 어휘장을 풍부하게 해주는 기초 작업이 될 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze fish communities in the Wonju stream located in Wonju-si in Gangwon-do, and to evaluate the health of the stream through past and present changes. We performed investigations four times from May 2015 to September 2016. In the survey, 5,201 individuals which belonged to 27 species and 9 families were collected. Zacco platypus was the dominant species and Pungtungia herziwas the subdominant species. Eight Korean endemic species (Acanthorhodeus gracilis, Zacco koreanus, Coreoleuciscus splendidus, Squalidus gracilis majimae, Microphysogobio yaluensis, Iksookimia koreensis, Koreocobitis rotundicaudata, Coreoperca herzi) were observed and showed a ratio of 16.54%. The fish community of dominance (0.72±0.10), diversity (1.37±0.32), evenness (0.61±0.13), and richness (1.70±0.23) were evaluated. According to our analysis of tolerance guilds, the total individual number of intermediate species was higher than the sensitive and tolerant species. As a result of the trophic guild analysis,the omnivore and insectivore species were relatively high. The value of the qualitative habitat evaluation index (QHEI) in the wonju stream was averaged 121.2 (±23.4), indicating a suboptimal condition. Stream health showed that the fish assessment index (FAI) value was an A to C grade in the Wonju stream. A correlation coefficient analysis with FAI and various factors was analysed statistically, and had a high correlation in QHEI, with the omnivore species, insectivore species, intermediate species, sensitive species, dominance, diversity, evenness, and richness.

In this study, the fauna of freshwater fish were investigated from March until October of 2016 in 24 independent streams in the Jeonnam and Jeonbuk provinces, which were flowing into the Yellow Sea. The health of the aquatic ecosystem in those streams was assessed through the biological and abiological character index (BAc index). During the surveyed period, a total of 4,127 individuals were collected; they belonged to 59 species of 44 genera in 18 families. The most dominant species identified was Zacco platypus, and 12 species were endemic species of Korea, including Rhodeus uyekii. The BAc index indicated a statistically significant correlation (p<0.01 or 0.05). The stage distribution of the aquatic ecosystem health assessment showed the highest rating of 41.7% at the “Fair” stage. The “Good” and “Poor” stages accounted for 20.8% while the “Excellent” stage took up 16.7%. It has been confirmed that the aquatic ecosystem health of independent streams is influenced more by the abiological character index as a consequence of geographical characteristics and artificial/natural limiting factors, than by the biological character index.

The aim of the study was to determine physiochemical properties of extruded fish feed at different barrel temperature (120, 130, and 140°C) and moisture content (35, 40, and 45%). As barrel temperature and moisture content increased, expansion ratio, water holding capacity, and water stability increased, while bulk density, hardness, and swelling ratio decreased. Soaking time had significant (P<0.05) effect on water stability. Best water stability was observed on all samples soaked for 1 h. Protein digestibility was not significantly different among the samples while protein digestibility of extruded fish feed significant higher than raw materials.

This study aims to suggest the methodology to improve to estimate back-calculated fish growth parameters using weighted average. It is to contribute to correct errors in the calculation of back-calculated growth equation with unequal numbers of sample by age. If the numbers of sample were evenly collected by age, each back-calculated length at age was equal between arithmetic and weighted averages. However, most samples cannot be evenly collected by age in reality because of different catchability by fishing gear and limitation of environment condition. Therefore, the estimation of back-calculated length by weighted average method is essential to calculate growth parameters. There were some published growth equations from back-calculated length using a simple arithmetic average with different numbers of samples by age when searching for back-calculated growth equations from 91 relevant papers. In this study, the process of deriving growth equation was investigated and two different average calculations were applied to a fish growth equation, for example of Acheilognathus signifer. Growth parameters, such as L∞, k and t0, were estimated from two different back-calculated averages and the growth equations were compared with growth performance index. Based on the correction of back-calculated length using weighted average by age, the changes by female and male were -14.19% and -5.23% for L∞, and 59.28% and 18.91% for k, respectively. The corrected growth performance index by weighted average improved at 7.05% and 2.46% by female and male, respectively, compared to the arithmetic averages.

The objective of this study was to prove possible effects of a habitable place for fish around semi-submersible drilling rig which measured underwater radiated noise, irradiance distribution of rig's light and conducted experimental fishing in Malaysia territory and observed for distribution of fishes around the rig by ROV during drilling operation in the East Sea of Korea. As a result underwater radiated noise was 130 dB/μPa from 156.25 to 187.50 Hz, irradiance distribution of light was between 21.5 and 43.1 lx. Despite this result, underwater radiated noise was not a threat to fish around rig and low irradiance distribution of light also played a role in the luring influence of the fishes at night. Fish showed up in the beginning of drilling operation and at the end of drilling operation. However, there are few fish in the midst of drilling operation. The main reason for this result was the destruction of the habitable place due to blow out mud and broken pieces of ground formation in drilling hole. The results are expected to contribute to reasonable fishery management around rig.

A centrifugal cyclone dust collecting apparatus includes a hydro cyclone dust collecting apparatus for separating solid or liquid using liquid or suspension as a medium. In this study, the formation mechanism and improvement of air core and inner air layer were confirmed through Particle Image Velocimetry. These results showed that the modified experimental model was designed in the conventional method suitable for the separation of juvenile fish and eggs. The inlet speed of the multi-stage hydrocyclone dust collector, which can increase the inlet velocity and minimize floatage in the turbulence chamber, was increased from 0.15 to 0.30 m/s. As a result, the air core was stably formed, the inner air layer was increased with increasing speed. In addition, the dust collecting efficiency of egg and juvenile fish was 97.8% on average, It can infer that this system confirmed the ability to efficiently collect particles of 40 μm or more.

This study was conducted to understand the relationships between fish and zooplankton of distribution in the coastal waters of the East Sea from May to August 2016 using hydroacoustic. To distinguish between fish and zooplankton, we used the time varied threshold (TVT) method at the frequency of 120 kHz. As a result, the mean nautical area scattering coefficient (NASC) of fish was highest at 913 m2/n.mile2 in June and lowest at 315 m2/n.mile2 in July. The mean NASC of zooplankton was highest at 247 m2/n.mile2 in May and lowest at 70 m2/n.mile2 in July. The mean NASC of fish and zooplankton showed a significant difference (P < 0.05) with high correlation (R2 = 0.84). In addition, there was no significant difference in the mean NASC of fishes and zooplankton by depth (t-test, person correction = -0.17, p > 0.05).
