The paper contains the study of heavy metals in three species - Sargassum miyabei , Sargassum pallidum , Cystoseira crassipes in the coastal waters of the Posyet Bay. The analysis of the spatial distribution of trace elements revealed the highest contents of zinc, copper and nickel in the Troitsa Bight, due to recreational pressure and a high concentration of nickel and cadmium in Sivuchya Bight that was caused by transboundary atmospheric transport. All of detected concentrations exceed natural background values for the North-Western part of the Sea of Japan. The authors show that there has been a distinct change in the environmental situation in the the Posyet Bay since 1998: the concentration of lead has sharply decreased, the content of zinc, copper and cadmium has decreased, it could be connected with influence reduction in the free economic zone, located on the Chinese side on the Tumannaya River.

Определены концентрации ртути в талломах массовых видов водорослей-биоиндикаторов родов Ulva lactuca, Ulvaria splendens, Sargassum miyabei, Sargassum pallidum, из прибрежных вод вокруг г. Владивостока Японского моря за летний период 2020 г. Содержание Hg варьируется от 5,8 до 41,4 нг/г сухой массы. Наибольшая концентрация наблюдается в ульве, отобранной из района бывшего полигона ТБО «Горностай», где ранее отмечались повышенные концентрации Cu, Pb, Fe, Zn. Отмечена тенденция уменьшения концентраций ртути в водорослях с июня по июль, как для ульвы, так и для саргассума. Водоросли вокруг Владивостока содержат очень низкие концентрации ртути и не превышают ПДК промысловых водорослей – 500 нг/г сухой массы. Полученные концентрации соответствуют величине Q1 – 25 процентилю общемировой выборки для зеленых и в основном Q1 для бурых, что говорит об отсутствии загрязнения ртутью литоральной зоны вокруг г. Владивосток в исследуемый период. The concentrations of mercury in mass species of algae - bioindicators of the genera Ulva lactuca, Ulvaria splendens, Sargassum miyabei, Sargassum pallidum, from coastal waters around Vladivostok, the Sea of Japan in summer of 2020 were determined. The Hg concentrations varies from 5.8 to 41.4 ng / g dry weight. The highest concentration is observed in the Ulva, taken from the area of the former landfill "Gornostay", where previously there were increased concentrations of Cu, Pb, Fe, Zn in algae. A tendency of a decrease in mercury concentrations in algae from June to July was noted for both Ulva and Sargassum in connection of atmosphera precipitations decreasing. Algae around Vladivostok contained very low concentrations of mercury and did not exceed the MPC for commercial algae - 500 ng / g dry weight. The obtained concentrations correspond to the value of Q1 - the 25th percentile of the global sample for green algae and mainly Q1 for brown ones, which indicates the absence of mercury contamination of the littoral zone around Vladivostok during the study period.

Now decrease press of the fishery on natural populations of hydrobionts and restoration of their number due to artificial reproduction is actual. At artificial cultivation important properly to choose the right feed. To develop the feeding technology, work was carried out with larvae and juveniles of sea cucumber and gray sea urchin in the conditions of the mini-plant of the Scientific and Production Department of Mariculture of the Far Eastern State Technical Fisheries University located in Severnaya Bay (Slavyansky Gulf, the Sea of Japan) and Troitsa Bay (Vladimir Gulf, the Sea of Japan). Experimental studies have shown the possibility of using the sea yeast Rhodotorula benthica as either the main feed or as a feed additive. Practical recommendations have been developed for the use of Rhodotorula benthica yeast as a substitute feed base for growing larvae and juveniles of Japanese sea cucumber and gray sea urchin. The results of the work will serve as a basis for the development of biotechnology for feeding at echinoderm breeding farms and will be useful to the organizations, whose duties include rational and competent progress of marine economic territories.
