25. NRDC: Spread Of Active Sonar Threatens Whales
    Whales The US Navy wants to flood the world's oceans and coastal waters with sonartechnology that deafens and kills whales and other marine mammals.  
    http://www.nrdc.org/wildlife/marine/nlfa.asp
    
    Extractions: Make a donation to NRDC. Around the globe, nations are testing and beginning to deploy "active sonar" technology, which uses extremely loud sound to detect submarines. The problem? Active sonar can injure and even kill marine mammals. It has been conclusively linked to the deaths of seven whales in the Bahamas in March 2000, and is thought to have caused a 1996 mass stranding of beaked whales on the west coast of Greece. The U.S. Navy has led the push toward use of active sonar. In full knowledge of the disastrous effects that active sonar's intense noise may have on whale populations all over the world, the Navy has also conducted testing in complete secrecy and has consistently evaded and violated environmental law. filed a lawsuit

Volunteer Opportunities The Marine Environmental Research Institute is a nonprofit charitable organization dedicated to scientific research and education on the impacts of pollution on marine life, and to protecting the health and biodiversity of the marine environment for future generations. MERI accomplishes its goals through multidisciplinary ecotoxicological research, research dissemination, environmental education, and international programs. Through its program initiatives, MERI seeks to address the problems of pollution of the ocean environment, unsustainable coastal development, species and habitat degradation, and environmental emergencies (toxic spills, releases) affecting marine life. The world's oceans, while critical to life on earth, are barely understood, and at present, no international body monitors ocean pollution. Yet throughout the global marine environment, signs of ecologic deterioration are apparent: beach closings, red tides, and shellfish health advisories due to sewage contamination; infectious diseases in coral reefs, tumors in sea turtles, eggshell thinning and reproductive problems among fish-eating birds; infertility, cancer, and virus-related mortalities among marine mammals.

38. MARINE MAMMAL SCIENCE Publishes Significant New Information Resulting From Origi
    MARINE MAMMAL SCIENCE publishes significant new findings on marine mammals resultingfrom original research on their form and function, evolution, systematics  
    http://pegasus.cc.ucf.edu/~smm/mms.htm
    
    Extractions: MARINE MAMMAL SCIENCE publishes significant new findings on marine mammals resulting from original research on their form and function, evolution, systematics, physiology, biochemistry, behaviour, population biology, life history, genetics, ecology and conservation. Range extensions, unusual observations of behaviour, and preliminary studies of a few individuals are published only where there is suffidient new information to render the manuscript of general interest. Low priority will be given to confirmatory investigations of local or regional interest. The Journal endorses the principle that experiments using live animals should be undertaken only for the purpose of advancing knowledge. Consideration should be given to the appropriateness of experimental procedures, species of animals used, and number of animals required. All animal experimentation reported in MARINE MAMMAL SCIENCE must be conducted in conformity with the relevant animal care codes of the country of origin. The Editor will refuse manuscripts in which evidence of adherence to such codes is not apparent.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Region 7, Alaska, Marine Mammals Management Office is responsible for management of the three Alaska species: polar bears, sea otters, and Pacific walrus. Management requires international coordination between the United States, Russia, and Canada, as well as a cooperative working relationship with Alaska Natives. Interactions with the domestic timber, fishing, and oil and gas industries are underway to conserve these species while allowing the wise use of our natural resources.
