The caddisfly family Hydropsychidae, containing about 1,500 described species is the 3rd largest family in Trichoptera. They are among the important components of biomonitoring programs because of their abundance and wide range of pollution tolerance values among species. In tropical Southeast Asia, 12 genera were currently recognized belonging to three subfamilies: Diplectroninae, Macronematinae, and Hydropsychinae. Herein, updated checklist and distribution of tropical Southeast Asian Hydropsychidae species were provided based on the review of published literatures and the trichoptera world website.
As a result, a total of 356 species of tropical Southeast Asian Hydropsychidae have been described wherein the four most abundant genera were Hydropsyche (116 species), Cheumatopsyche (91 species), Diplectrona (42 species), and Hydromanicus (35 species).
Tropical Southeast Asian Trichoptera studies were mostly done in Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and in the Philippines making some other tropical Southeast Asian countries unexplored.
최근 30년간(1979-2008년) 한반도 주변(32-36˚N, 122-132˚E)에서 태풍이 약화될 때 한국에서 나타나는 시공간적 강수 특징을 분석하였다. 약화 유형은 온대저기압으로 약화되는 태풍(Weakened to Extratropical Cyclone, WEC)과 열대성 저압부로 약화되는 태풍(Weakened to Tropical Depression, WTD)으로 구분하였다. WEC의 경우, 강수량은 전국에 걸쳐 골고루 분포하였으며 남해안에서 가장 많았다. WTD의 경우, 강수량은 남해안에서 가장 많았지만 중부 및 내륙지역은 적었다. 두 경우의 강수량 차이는 Region 2(전라남도, 경상남도, 경상북도 남동부 지역, 제주도)에서는 거의 없었으며, Region 1(중부지방, 전라북도, 경상북도 내륙)에서는 WTD보다 WEC일 때 강수량이 더 많았다. 태풍이 한반도로 접근 할 때 WEC의 경우 태풍의 북서쪽에는 상층의 발달된 잠재소용돌이도와 하층의 온도골이 위치하고 있었으며, 태풍의 북동쪽에는 상층 제트 및 강한 상층 발산역이 위치하였다. 이는 태풍 전면에 경압교란과 비단열 과정을 발달시켰고 이로 인해 강수영역이 넓게 형성된 것으로 추측되었다. 그러나 WTD의 경우에서는 강한 잠재소용돌이도나 온도골, 상층제트가 태풍 주변에 나타나지 않았으며, 이로 인해 강수영역이 좁게 형성되었다.
The author investigated the relation between the catches of tuna species and the distribution of horizontal mean temperature at the Jepth of 10m and of vertical temperture sections in the different fishing grounds, using the date of catches in 1980, showing a relative good ones during six years from 1975 to 1980, and of oceanographic observations. Yellowfin and bigeye are mainly caught in South Equatorial Current regions including equatorial upwelling region in 5˚N to 5˚S, and albacore is mainly caught in Subtropical region in 20˚5 to 40˚5. The good fishing grounds of yellowfin and bigeye are made in the depth layer of 100 m to 250 m and temperature of 15˚C to 26˚C having a smooth gradient of thermocline in the Central Pacific between 180˚ and 1500W. But albacore is caught well in which the temperature of thermocline ranges from 100e to 25˚C and its gradient very smoothly. Approaching to the American Continent, the catches of yellowfin and big eye decrease because the thermocline becomes shallower and steeper at Eastern Pacific Region between 1500 and 800W.
