ARTIFICIAL STRUCTURE FOR TRANSPLANTING SEAGRASS AND MARINE ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION METHOD USING THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: An ascidian transplant tool and a restoration method of a marine ecosystem is not only provided to make installation simple in between bedrocks by using a compressed spring but also to firmly fix the ascidian transplant seeding in between bedrocks despite the simple structure thereof. CONSTITUTION: A support stand(10) is combined to each side of two bars intermediating a hinge. A compressed spring(30) is combined to both ends of an inner part of each bar forming the support stand and the bars are arranged to form an inner angle of 30-120 degrees. One or more penetration holes are formed to allow insertion and fixation of an ascidian on the upper part of the two bars adjacent to the binding area in which the two bars are combined or adjacent to the bars. A spike(50) is additionally equipped on the lower outer surface of the bars which forms the support stand. The spike forms an angle of 30-150 degrees in an upward direction with the lower outer surface of two bars that forms the support stand. The two bars have the shape of a rectangular pillar. The ascidian transplanting tool is equipped with a binding means on the upper area thereof to combine the same to the support stand or the compressed spring and additionally contains one or more stakes(60) with a lower side area in an acrosome shape. The binding mean is a steel or plastic ring and one or more holes or rings are additionally equipped to hang the ring on a support stand. The two bars that form the support stand are made of stainless steel, FRP, or a reinforced plastic material.
