본 연구에서는 해상가두리 양식장에서 북방전복과 둥근전복속 교잡종(왕전복♀*둥근전복♂)의 생물지표를 분석하여 교잡육종의 결과를 평가하고자 하였다. 생존율은 북방전복과 유사하였 으나, 성장(각장)은 교잡종에서 약 10% 빠른 것으로 분석되었다. 패각의 호흡공 기형율은 교잡 종이 북방전복보다 약 6% 낮았으며, 패각 함몰 및 부식율은 교잡종이 약 15% 낮았다. 생화학 적 조성에서는 조단백질의 경우 교잡종에서 약 3.1% 높았으며, 이를 제외한 나머지에서 유사 한 값을 나타냈다. 소화, 흡수 및 해독기능을 수행하는 간췌장의 조직학적 평가에서는 교잡종 에서 좋은 결과를 보였다. 이러한 결과로 보아 둥근전복속 교잡종은 추후 양식 환경에 접목 하였을 때 높은 양식 생산력을 가질 것으로 판단된다.

This study is aimed to analyze the economic feasibility of yellowtail culture using the copper alloy net cage in Gyeongsangbuk-do. First of all, in order to evaluate the copper alloy net cage on yellowtail culture, I review the trend on the yellowtail culture industry and research the concept of copper alloy net cage. The copper-alloy net cage is now recognized as an advantages of its system stability, recycling, antibiosis and food safety. The results were summarized as follows: first, there was significant meaning of the profit model of yellowtail culture by the price difference. Second, I analyzed in the economic feasibility of yellowtail culture using the copper alloy net cage, internal rate of return (IRR) was 51.58%, a benefit-cost ratio was shown to be 2.27 and net present value (NPV) was 1,087,337 thousand won, which indicates the economic feasibility of yellowtail culture using the copper alloy net cage is profitable. Finally, in order to improve the economic valuation, it is necessary to focus more on the developing of technology and cost reduction strategy on the copper alloy net cage.

This study is aimed to analyze the hydrodynamic characteristics of the cage net in the circulating water channel. It visualized wake flows using a PIV (paricle imaging velocimetry) and analyzed the flow velocity distribution. In addition, the vorticity and turbulence intensity were analyzed from the wake flow distribution and compared changes by flow velocity. Results showed that the average turbulence intensity in the circulating water channel was very stable showing less than 1% in the range between 0.2 and 0.8 m/s. The drag coefficient affecting to the netting was estimated to be 1.35. The flow decreasing rate of the wake in the middle of the netting was 2.1% at the range of 0.2 m/s and it was constant at 6.6―6.9% over the range of 0.4 m/s irrespective of velocity increases. Finally, the change of turbulence intensity by netting and knot mesh could be confirmed. These results can be utilized as a basic information for the future research of flow characteristics by fishing nets and meshes.

Simulation technique for the fish behavior was applied to estimate fish school movement in the cage net. Individual-based fish behavior model (Huth and Wessel, 1991) was evaluated in a free area to understand the characteristics for the model, and the movement in the cage net was simulated by defining the fish reaction against the displacement of cage net. As a result, the distance to the net was not considerably changed and the space among fishes in cage net was slightly decreased by reducing the net space. Swimming area was, however, significantly affected by changing the net space and the relationship between swimming area and net displacement was theoretically estimated as y=-0.21x+1.02 (R2=0.96). these results leads the conclusion that individual-based model was appropriated to describe the fish school reaction in the cage net and be able to use for evaluating the influence on cultured fish.

어군의 분포밀도와 초음파산란강도의 관계를 검토하기 위하여, 50kHz의 주파수에서 net cage (농망)에 분포밀도가 기지인 어군을 수용하고, 어군밀도의 변화에 기인하는 echo energy의 변동을 고찰하고, 또 cage 실험에 의해 추정한 어체의 평균적인 반사강도와 개개의 어체를 대상으로 구한 평균반사강도를 상호 비교, 검토한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. cage 실험에 의한 붕어의 평균반사강도는 -41.9dB로서, 이 값은 현장에서 개개의 붕어(마취어, 평균체장 19.1cm)를 대상으로 측정한 평균반사강도 -42.6dB보다 0.7dB 더 컸다. 2. cage내에 수용한 어군의 분포밀도가 증가함에 따라, 어군에 의한 평균체적산란강도는 직선적으로 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 즉, 어군밀도가 7, 13, 20, 26, 39, 52, 66 마리/m 상(3)였을 때, 각각의 어군에 의한 평균체적산란강도는 -33.0, -28.9, -27.6, -24.3, -25.1, -23.6, -22.1dB이었다. 3. 어군밀도 σ(마리/m 상(3))와 평균체적산란강도 (dB)와의 사이에는 다음의 관계식이 성립하였다. =-41.9+11.0 Log(σ), r=0.97 이 식에 회귀직선의 기울기 11은 이론적인 값 10에 거의 근사하였다.
