We investigated the spatial distribution of heterotrophic bacteria associated with different water masses in the northern East China Sea (ECS) in summer. The surface water masses were divided into the Changjiang Diluted Water (CDW) and high salinity water (HSW). In the CDW region, the concentrations of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), and micro Chl-a contribution were high; and bacterial abundance (BA) and ciliate abundance (CA) were also high. In the HSW region with relatively low DIN concentrations, Chl-a concentration and micro Chl-a contribution were low, but pico Chl-a contribution was increased compared to those in the CDW region. BA did not show any significant difference from the CDW region, but CA was decreased. BA showed a positive correlation with Chl-a concentration in the CDW region; however, it did not show a significant correlation with Chl-a concentration in the HSW region. The ratio of bacterial carbon biomass/phytoplankton carbon biomass was exponentially increased with a decrease in the Chl-a concentration. Compared to the past (1990-2000s), the surface phosphate concentrations and the size of dominant phytoplankton have recently decreased in the ECS. Considering this trend of nutrient decrease and miniaturization of the phytoplankton, our results indicate that changes in the strength of the oligotrophic water mass could alter the function of the microbial food web.

World is now shifting from the industrial and information society to the 4th Industrial Revolution in its structure, and new products and services appear in various sectors. The 4th Industrial Revolution changes the entire daily lives in more convenient, safer, and more effective forms. There will be many changes in food industries with combination between intelligent information technologies such as IoT, big data, AI and new technologies such as 3D printing, robotics, and nano-technology, developing more intelligent ones. Intelligent IoT is one of four main basic industries for sustainable growth with future driving force in Korea. Since 2010, food smart distribution researches combining food technologies and ICT have been conducted in Korea, and core original technologies including quality management sensor, intelligent food distribution environment control system, smart warehouse, real-time quality monitoring, etc. Food smart distribution technology is a system converging ICT including sensor tag, sensor network, and LBS and food technologies for safe management of history, quality, and distribution, and it will be applied to food distribution industries, developing the domestic food distribution industries to the world-class level. Recently, IoT has been increasingly introduced into food industries, and development of new convergence technologies and adjustment to technological changes are required, and it is necessary to establish strategies for how to introduce food system based on IoT. As a result of the analysis of frequency of keywords o technological trends by applying text-mining technologies into tremendous amount of unstructured data created by newly convergence technologies between food and the Fourth Industrial Revolution, there are eight main keywords including IoT, smart sensor, artificial intelligence(AI), multi-tasking, automatic cognition/discernment, quality management, simplification of distribution, an customer-friendly. It is necessary to make national strategies for R&D. In case of Korea, ICT is the world class, and if it is applied to food industries, it will be available to develop new world-class business models.

In this study, we explain the environmental variables that mainly influence the spatial and seasonal pattern of Galerucella nipponensis in 38 wetland and stream located at mid-low Nakdong River. G. nipponensis were found at total of 32 wetland, was strongly positively correlated with the biomass of Trapa japonica (t=2.173, r2=0.013, p<0.05). In result of seasonal distribution during 3 years, the largest density of G. nipponensis adult were observed in summer (7~8 months), egg and larva was recorded in only early spring (4~5 months). Rainfall were negatively related with the seasonal distribution of G. nipponensis. They were more abundant in dry season (2015 year) than rainy seasons (2013~2014 year). Stable isotope analysis showed that the G. nipponensis consumed as food source no submerged leaf of T. japonica than other plant. However, utilization of T. japonica on Galerucella nipponensis were not influence to plant biomass and/or species composition in vegetated bed. Those considered as adaptive strategies for sustainable habitat maintenance that because T. japonica use as not only food source but also their lives for G. nipponensis.

The world is in the process of a structural change related to ICT convergence knowledge industries. ICT is leading to the creation of new products and services, and is making our lives more convenient, safer, and more efficient. In advanced countries, many studies have been conducted with the goal of developing new business models converged with ICT, and this is also the case in the food industry. Korea possesses world-leading ICT, and if this ICT is applied to the food industry, a world-class new business model can be developed. The u-Food System, which is in the process of development in Korea, is a next-generation food system that can allow food providers, consumers, and distributors to access various types of information about food products, including traceability, distribution, safety, quality, and freshness, and manage this information. It is a future food system that converges ICT, biotechnology and sensing technology with food. Based on the u-Food System, this paper will introduce the status of current smart quality distribution technologies that converge ICT (such as sensor tag, sensor network, LBS, GIS, and CDMA) with food technologies (such as traceability, quality, distribution management) to manage the safety and quality of fresh food in the distribution process.

주변 토지 이용이 다른 소부당과 명동저수지의 수변부 와 개방수역간에 동물플랑크톤 군집 분포와 먹이망을 파 악하기 위해 2011년 5월부터 10월까지 조사를 수행하였 다. 소부당과 명동저수지의 동물플랑크톤은 각각 51종, 65종이 출현하였으며, 수변부와 개방수역간에 뚜렷한 밀 도 차이를 보였다(t-test, P⁄0.05). 지각류와 요각류는 수 변부에서 높은 밀도를 보인 반면, 윤충류는 개방수역에서 더 높은 밀도를 나타냈다(t-test, P⁄0.05). 수변부에서 출 현한 동물플랑크톤 종은 주로 부착성 성향을 가진 종이 었다(Lecane, Monostyla, Alona 그리고 Chydorus). Chl.a 의 농도가 높은 명동저수지에서는 부유성 윤충류(Brachionus, Keratella 그리고 Polyarthra)의 높은 밀도가 관찰 되었다. Two-way ANOVA 결과, 윤충류는 서식처의 특성 과 토지 이용이 다른 두 저수지간에 뚜렷한 차이를 보인 반면, 지각류와 요각류는 서식처의 특성에만 의존하는 것 으로 나타났다. 저수의 영양상태가 주변 토지 이용과 밀 접하게 연관되는 점을 감안하면, 윤충류는 서식처의 특성 뿐만 아니라 저수지의 영양상태에 따른 먹이자원에도 밀 접하게 연관되는 것으로 보인다. 그러나 지각류와 요각류 는 먹이자원보다 서식처의 특성에 주로 영향받는다. 안정 동위원소 분석 결과, 부유성 Chl.a의 높은 값에도 불구하 고 동물플랑크톤은 주로 부착입자 유기물에 대해 의존하 였다. 이것은 실잠자리 유충, 검정물방개 그리고 새뱅이 같은 무척추동물과의 먹이 경쟁을 피하기 위한 것으로 사료된다. 결과적으로 동물플랑크톤 군집 분포는 습지의 공간적 특성 및 먹이자원에 의해 결정되는 것으로 보인 다. 흥미로운 점은 동물플랑크톤 군집 밀도를 결정하는 수생식물이나 식물플랑크톤 등은 수체 내의 영양염류의 농도에 영향받으며, 이는 습지 주변 토지 피복이 매우 중 요하게 고려된다는 것이다.

This study surveyed and compared the temperatures established in display stands and food surfaces for cold and frozen foods in large discount stores in Korea. The temperatures established in display stands for cold food ranged with 3.5 ± 1.8 ℃ as mean, minimum and maximum were 0 ℃ and 7 ℃ . However, the surface temperatures of cold food on sale ranged with 10.7 ± 2.9 ℃ as a mean, minimum 4.6 ℃ and maximum 18.4 ℃ . Totally, the surface temperature of cold food on sale was 7.2 ℃ , as a mean, higher than established in display stands for cold food in large discount stores in Korea. 53% of the surveyed cold foods were more than 10 ℃ in surface temperature and only 47% was less than 10 ℃ . The differences between temperatures were lowest in fruits, salads and vegetables, but highest in milk products. On the other hand, the temperatures established in display stands for frozen food showed a range with −20.7 ± 1 ℃ as a mean. However, the surface temperatures of frozen food on sale showed a range with −15.4 ±5 ℃ as a mean, minimum −28 ℃ and maximum −4.6 ℃ (included defrosting). The surface temperatures of frozen food,frozen meats, frozen processed foods and ice creams were −13.8 ℃ , −15.9 ℃ , and −16.8 ℃ , respectively. Only 32.3%of surveyed frozen foods showed less than −18 ℃ in surface temperature. In conclusion, the temperatures established on cold and frozen food display stands were less than those of cold and frozen food surfaces on sale. There was also much variation in food surface temperatures during cold and frozen food storage and sales. Therefore, a temperature management system technology use at the distribution level for cold and frozen foods will be developed.

A change in distribution structure affect a consumption structure which may result in considerable changes in lifestyle including food purchase. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of change of distribution structure on the indigenous fermented food purchase.

Distribution structure is the link between a society's needs and its industrial responses. A change in distribution structure brings about a consumption structure which may results in considerable changes in lifestyle including food habits. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a effect of change of distribution structure on the food purchase. The survey was carried from May to June, 1997 by way of questionnaire of 407 housewives, aged 23-64 years, in Seoul and the capital area. The questionaire consists of sociodemographic characteristics of the subjects and distribution channel, information route of food selection, acknowledgement and coefficient of utilization of new distribution channel, mainly used distribution channel in food purchase, important factors in food selection, and food purchasing behavior. Their data were statistically analyzed based on frequency, mean, and 2-test. The major findings of this study were as follows; 1) Most frequently used distribution channels in food purchase were supermarket(38.53%), department store(15.23%), discount store(14.05%), a conventional retail market(13.87%), membership wholesale club(8.07%), and a conventional wholesale market(6.53%). 2) The new distribution channels that subjects have ever used were discount store(75.4% of the subject), membership wholesale club(63%), mail order house(32%), outlet store(29.4%), home shopping(10.3%). 3) Compared to the subject living far from the new distribution channel, the subject living close to the new distribution channel was higher in frequency of new distribution channel utilization. These observations suggest that change of the distribution structure promotes the change of the food purchasing behavior.
