본 연구는 넙치를 인공사육 시설에서 육성할 때 나타나는 무안측 흑화(착색증)의 스트레스 관련 성을 확인하기 위해, 무안측에 체색이 없는 것(정상 그룹)와 체색이 있는 것(흑화 그룹)들 사이 스트레스 인자 비교 실험을 실시하였다. 본 실험에 사용된 실험어는 평균 전장 21.5±0.42 cm, 평균 무게 87.5±6.1 g였으며, 실험어의 무안측 착색면적률은 정상 그룹 0.63±0.12%, 착색증 그룹 16.7±4.7%였다. 분석한 스트레스 관련 인자는 혈중 GLU 및 TP, 코티졸 및 갑상선호르몬(FT3 & FT4) 농도 및 어체 성분(수분, 조단백, 조지방, 조회분)이었다. 실험 결과, 정상과 무안측 착색 넙 치에 있어 혈중 GLU 및 TP의 농도는 정상 형질보다 착색증 형질에서 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 혈 중 호르몬 농도에 있어 갑상선호르몬의 경우 정상과 착색증 그룹 사이에는 유의차를 찾아볼 수 없지만, 코티졸은 착색증 그룹이 정상 그룹에 비해 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 어체 중 영양 성분의 경우, 수분과 회분은 그룹 간 유의차가 없었지만, 조단백은 착색증 그룹이 정상보다 다소 낮으며, 조지방은 정상보다 유의하게 높았다. 이상의 스트레스 인자를 통한 정상과 착색증 그룹 간 비교 를 통해 알 수 있듯, 양식산 넙치의 착색증은 만성적이 약한 스트레스에 관련되어 있을 가능성이 높은 것으로 확인되었다.

This study aims to estimate the Green-House-Gas emissions from domestic farmed flounder in the southern sea and Jeju-Do, where is mainly produced, by the assessment of energy consumptions and GHG emissions from domestic fish farms for establishing reduce standards of greenhouse gas from a sustainable perspective. It needs to analyze such GHG emission components as feed, electricity, fuel, fixed capital, fish respiration, and liquid oxygen in two locations by 4 stage running water type farm size of small, small and medium, large and medium, large scale. The result showed that the mean GHG emissions were 36.83 kg·CO2/year in the southern sea and 24.33 kg·CO2/year in Jeju-Do, respectively, in the stage of production per fish 1kg at 2 locations and farm size from domestic farmed flounders, and it will give to be useful for policy, planning, and regulation of aquaculture development with establishing GHG reduction standards.

To compare the catches made using gillnets, trammel nets, and gillnets with supporting lines, several experiments were conducted with commercial vessels near Uljin and Pohang in Eastern Korea between July 2010 and May 2011. Two sets of 13 different nets were used, including 5 panels of gillnets and trammel nets each with stretched mesh sizes of 7.6, 9.1, 10.6, 12.1, and 13.6 cm and 3 panels of gillnets with a mesh size of 9.1 cm with supporting lines with different line spacing. The outer (stretched) mesh size of the trammel nets measured 51.5 cm. The target fishes of the fishing nets were various types of flounders. The catch rate of flounders was 50.7% of the total catch in weight. The total catch for all nets was 443.8 kg. The predominant species was pointhead flounder (Cleisthenes pinetorum). The total catch by trammel nets was 1.4 times that of the comparable gillnets. But more pointhead flounder were caught by gillnets than by trammel nets, though there was no significant difference. Fishermen catching the pointhead flounder in Korea said that there was no need to use trammel net to catch it; this was an unexpected finding compared to the findings of other flounder fisheries. The amounts of roughscale sole, brown sole, and blackfin flounder caught by trammel nets were greater than those caught by gillnets. The mean lengths (standard deviation) of blackfin flounder, pointhead flounder, brown sole, and roughscale sole were 21.0 (4.57), 22.9 (3.40), 24.7 (4.90), and 28.3 (5.43) cm, respectively; there were significant differences in mean length (p < 0.00001). Therefore, in order to catch flounder efficiently, the fishing nets and mesh size should be chosen according to the target species. One advantage of using supporting lines is that it prevents breakage by strengthening the material especially when utilized on a rough bottom. Catch by using gillnet with supporting lines was not greater than that by using trammel net for the conservation of fisheries resources.
