Window on Conservation Marine Life Home Page Water Life ... The Twighlight Zone Window on Conservation Window on Conservation To help us understand the oceans and the life they contain, we carry out a number of conservation and research projects. A glimpse of some of these can be seen through our 'Window on Conservation' exhibit. Watch our aquarists at work as they tend the breeding tanks containing seahorses, cardinal fish and soft corals. As we become involved in more projects they will be highlighted here. This is also the location for the latest news on conservation projects being carried out by our partner organisations in the Plymouth Marine Partnership. Our aim is to become self sufficient in as many species as possible and to pass on surplus stock to other public aquariums throughout the world - by reducing the pressure on wild specimens we hope to ensure their survival. Encouraging animals to breed By creating the best possible conditions for these animals in captivity we can encourage them to breed and produce offspring. We can also learn about their needs in the wild and thus aid their conservation in natural habitats.

Steward Our Land Into the Ocean "Adopt" a Geographic News Story Echoes: What Animals Can Teach Scientists Geography Skills and Your Town Your Changing Town Complete Index Into the Ocean Overview: Students are familiar with fish and perhaps some other underwater animals, but have they ever thought about where in the ocean these animals live? In this lesson, students will be encouraged to learn more about the special adaptations of animals with which they are already familiar. It will introduce students to different ocean depths and to the ways in which animals have adapted to live at different depths. In the process, they will look at the photographs of David Doubilet and think about how photography can help save the oceans. [NOTE: To prepare for this lesson, have the following done before starting: Tear off a 6-foot (approximately 2-meter) sheet of poster paper. Holding the paper vertically, draw backgrounds for three different layers of the ocean: the shore and tide pools, the open ocean, and the abyss or deep sea. (If you have time, make this a class project.) When you are finished drawing, tape the page to a classroom wall. These are simplified classifications of the ocean's depths, but will help give students an introduction to life in various parts of the ocean.] Connections to the Curriculum: Geography, earth science

Ship Pollution Regulations (Acrobat Reader needed) Liability for Oil Polution (Acrobat Reader needed) Stow it Don't Throw it Garbage pollution from vessels Boat users have traditionally dumped their garbage into the sea as a matter of course. Oceans were seen as vast domains in which garbage became invisible because it either decayed or sank. Today the situation is very different, mainly because we all use so many non-biodegradable products such as plastics. Once thrown into the sea, they are extremely persistent and potentially harmful to humans and marine life. The beauty of our coastlines and beaches is devalued as garbage accumulates. Beaches, often in remote places, are polluted by garbage washed up from the sea. Much of this garbage comes from ships, yachts, trawlers and other marine craft. Garbage can be fatal for marine animals such as turtles and whales which mistake plastic bags for jellyfish - a source of food. Other plastic material can be mistaken as food and eaten by fish, seabirds and other marine life, causing death. Garbage also entangles seabirds, seals, turtles and fish, trapping and slowly choking them to death. Garbage can also be costly for recreational boaters and the fishing industry. Rope and plastic material may get caught in propeller shafts or block water intakes causing major damage, expensive repairs and loss of income while vessels are repaired.

Pollution is one of the primary threats to plants and animals in the oceans. Pollution comes from people dumping waste products into the oceans, and from pesticides, oil, and other toxins that accumulate on land and are washed into the ocean during rains. Fishing is another threat to marine organisms. Many species are managed properly, but some, such as rockfish, are particularly vulnerable to overfishing and their numbers have declined. Fishery managers work with the Channel Islands National Martine Sanctuary staff to help protect the marine life in the Sanctuary. thetree : What species is the greatest focus in the Channel Islands? satieairame : Various species play important roles in the ecology of the Channel Islands. Giant kelp provides an important source of food and shelter for many other animals. Lobsters, sea urchins, and squid are important invertebrates in the regionsupporting some of the biggest fisheries. Rockfish are important to the ecology of the region and they also support a small commercial and recreational fishing industry. Marine mammals, such as blue whales, gray whales, and humpback whales, attract many tourists to the region. Finally, seabirds, including the California Brown Pelican, Snowy Plover, and Least Tern, are threatened, but still maintain breeding populations in the area.

Free web page hosting :: 50megs.com oceans away In the middle of the North American continent I walk over the Iowa River and think of the sea, more than a thousand miles away. For years, everyday, every time, I take this two-hundred yard journey, twenty feet above the moving river, I am reminded of the ocean, the Atlantic, that surrounded my island home. Water. The river's colors are different - dirty greens and browns compared with the full spectrums of blue and black in the sea. The shades are more subtle, more dominated by the land and the season, than the sky. There are no unfathomable depths or horizons that reach beyond belief. The river is finite, more calm than complex. Its life is controlled by shores and transparent shallows. Small waves spit angry foam, wanting more room to grow, unable to join the unchecked wind across the great plains. Water. It has a universality unequaled by anything on earth. It swells in this small piece of river just as it does in the sea. Ripples resonate in exactly the same patterns on its every surface. It plays clever games with light and pretends to move with the wind. Its every surface covers a single spirit. The land in the mid-west is so big they call it a sea. It dominates here, limiting the water, directing and subduing it, but there is no compromising of its purpose. The land is anchored, patient, strong, sacrificing the breath of movement for stability. Yet the water plays upon it, eats it up and throws it out, penetrating from above and below without effort. It is the water that decides the boundaries, the limits of the land. It is water that has and will survive forever with its constant change, its ability to adapt, never exact but always meticulous. Ever moving and enduring with ancient strength.

SEA SHELL GAME # 29 Judged by Jane Reichhold April 8, 2000 ROUND ONE bright summer morning young cat soundlessly stalking swaying blade of grass In and out the unintentional pattern a breath of life Ku #1 wins because it is composed of concrete images. String of trees fallen Into the bowl of the valley A broken necklace Soothing vibration Releasing the soul the spirit Free of vocal bars Again, ku #3 wins because it contains images of the physical world. Under the summer moon tapping lightly in the breeze - forgotten papers Trees dipped in crystal Diamond-scattered wind Winter's fragile jewels. Ah, now these are better matched – both are filled with the physical world. I would pick ku# 5 as winner because it combines dissonant images in a simple but effective way. Computer Screen's Glare Etching print across our minds Storing Memory Engulfed in peacefulness, nothing seems to break the calming sound, of mother nature basking in her glory. Ku # 8 seems to achieve the singular honor of being totally abstract – an absolute no-no in haiku. Ku #7 wins easily. Girls dance on the beach

Introduction Phytoplankton Counting in Midstream Learning Together ... Ocean Knowledge "Nothing in the sea falls haphazard; if we cannot predict, it is because we do not know the cause, or how the cause works..." Henry Bryant Bigelow, 1929 Report to the National Academy of Sciences The scientific community of researchers at Bigelow Laboratory epitomizes the commitment to exploration and inquiry that Henry Bryant Bigelow first articulated in his 1929 report about the importance of scientific investigation of the oceans. Since 1974, Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences has been actively pursuing the scientific journey that began in the oceans more than a hundred years ago. Now, on the verge of a new century, understanding the natural processes that take place in the world's oceans has become more essential to our society and our planet than at any previous time in our history. The oceans cover over seventy percent of our planet's surface, and have a critical impact on the familiar terrestrial environment we inhabit. In addition to providing the only source of protein for nearly a billion people and employment for millions of individuals, the oceans regulate the composition of our atmosphere and help stabilize climate by moderating extreme changes in temperature on the planet's surface. Human population is growing faster in coastal areas than anywhere else; projections show that in twenty-five years almost seventy-five percent of the people in the United States will live in coastal areas, putting enormous pressure on near-shore marine ecosystems as a result of development and pollution. It is estimated that 3,600 people in the United States relocate to the coast every day. Currently, half of the five and a half billion people in the world live within fifty miles (80km) of an ocean.
