Ostracode Research Activities in

KOREA

Correspondent: Eui-Hyeong Lee <ehlee@kuccnx.korea.ac.kr>

Lee, Eui-Hyeong. Eui is working on the ecology and taxonomy of Recent marine ostracods from shallow seas around the Korean Peninsula. This year I will finish a joint project with Dr. E.I. Schornikov and Dr. Min Huh, working on ostracods as indicators of water pollution from the east coast of Korean Peninsula. Other current research interests: (1) Cenozoic marine and Mesozoic freshwater ostracods in subsurface cores from the continental shelves around Korean Peninsula, (2) Quaternary ostracods from the Cheju Island. [Editor’s note: we thank Dr. Lee for volunteering this year to become Korea’s CYPRIS country correspondent. Many thanks, Eui.]

Huh, Min. Min is working on (1) marine Miocene Ostracoda from the Korean Peninsula and its adjacent seas (East Sea, Japan, and Russian samples), (2) Quaternary Ostracoda using the cores from the East Sea (Sea of Japan), (3) Recent marine ostracodes as indicators of water pollution from the adjacent sea of Korean Peninsula, with Dr. Schornikov and Dr. E. H. Lee. General interests include paleoecology and paleobiogeographic research.
