Extractions: Webposted 2:15 PM EDT By Environmental News Network staff A group of oceanographers, glaciologists, meteorologists and biologists are currently on a mid-winter expedition to the Antarctic to further pursue the mysteries of the Adelie polynya. (ENN) Australia's scientific agency has been doing a lot of research in the Antarctic during this Year of the Ocean, and one of their recent discoveries is a source of dense, oxygen-rich Antarctic Bottom Water which breathes life into the world's oceans. Dr. Steve Rintoul, a Southern Ocean specialist at CSIRO Marine Research and the Antarctic Cooperative Research Centre in Hobart, has identified a section of the Antarctic coast directly south of Tasmania as the source of one quarter of the Antarctic Bottom Water formed. Cold air near Antarctica cools the ocean to the point that sea ice begins to form. As ice forms, salt is released to the water beneath the new ice. Both the low temperatures and higher salinity make the surface water heavy enough to sink 4 kilometres (2.5 miles) to the bottom of the ocean, hence the name Antarctic Bottom Water.

Extractions: Primitive shore birds called Ichthyornis rest near the large crocodile Deinosuchus Doug Henderson Doug Henderson's Marine Paleo-Life Art Last Revised 01/25/2004 In 1991, Patricia Lauber's Living with Dinosaurs was published by Maxwell Macmillan International Publishing Group. The book was written about life during the late Cretaceous (75 million years ago) and was illustrated with 26 new paleo-life artworks created by Douglas Henderson. Marine creatures, birds and Pteranodons were the subjects of many of his paintings. Doug Henderson has generously given me permission to use these pictures as illustrations on the Oceans of Kansas Paleontology webpage. They will soon be found on various pages on the Oceans of Kansas website, but I wanted to show all of them together in one place so that the reader can get a feel for the variety of creatures that Doug re-created in his pictures. I also wanted to be able to give some background about the animals shown in the pictures in the context of the fossils that we find represented in the Smoky Hill chalk and Pierre Shale.

Extractions: Motherpage Amma's Life A Shore With Two Oceans Amma is full of surprises. She bestows upon Her children many beautiful situations that ever remain fresh and bright in their hearts. These precious moments, however, are not planned; they are spontaneous. As Amma beholds the entire creation as a wonder, whatever She does automatically becomes a wonder itself. I am reminded of Lord Krishnaâs words to Arjuna: âSome see the Self as a wonder. Similarly, others speak about It as a wonder. Others hear about It as a wonder. Yet, no one knows the Self as oneâs pure existence.â ( Bhagavad Gita It is indeed true in our relationship with our most beloved Amma. As She spends hours on end with usâlaughing, playing, singing, meditating, sharing Her infinite wisdom and even jokingâwe forget the greatest of all truths, that within this short form of Ammaâs resides the infinite shakti of pure consciousness, which is none other than our very own Self. Nonetheless, the last day of this yearâs Australian tour served as a powerful reminder of Ammaâs infinitude nature. That evening, Amma suddenly came out of Her room and went to the seashore. Although Ammaâs decision was quite unexpected, devotees appeared out of the blue, and the group grew bigger as Amma walked to the beautiful beach.

Extractions: Life: A Natural History of the First Four Billion Years of Life on Earth "For the meek survive, even if they don't inherit the Earth." p. 317 Life is a very enjoyable, easy-to-read, popular work filled with golden nuggets on life's history. The first chapter is a brief autobiographical piece which sets the stage for how Fortey entered his profession. It also serves as a metaphor for main themes in the rest of the book. In general, the work is well done, but the book is not without its problemssome forgivable, some not. Although illustrated timelines are readily available elsewhere , including one would have been a valuable addition to the bookespecially for the non-scientist audience the book is primarily aimed at. The prose is, for the most part, excellent, but occasionally the word choice is misleading, overly dogmatic, or strange. For instance on page 25 he states "that the genetic bond that unites all mammals runs to more than the sequences of chemical bases in the DNA molecule." What the "more" is, he does not say. I'm not sure what could still be 'genetic' and not be based on DNA. Two pages later he states that if the formation of the solar system "had happened one jot differently, there would have been no living cells". Should this really be stated as fact? For all we know, life can exist (or could have existed) in a variety of environments ranging from comets and meteorites (as he speculates in the next chapter) to Venus-like planets or celestial bodies that could house hyperthermophiles

Extractions: Storybooks About Marine Life And Habitats These are some great books to read about marine life. There are simply too many books to list, but I consider these to be the very best. Although written on a primary level, I still use these books with my older students. The illustrations and messages are simply too wonderful not to share with them. Also, it often inspires the older students to write stories for the primary grades. Click on the book for a link to Amazon.com. Pagoo By Holling I first saw this book in 1982, and I have loved it and used it ever since. It follows the life of a hermit crab from birth to death. It is filled with wonderfully accurate information and illustrations about marine life. Even my 6th graders love this book. Definitely a read aloud for younger students. A House for Hermit Crab By Eric Carle I know you've all seen it, but this one is too good not to list. This is the story of a hermit crab who has grown too big for his shell and has to find a new one.

http://www.alvei.com/life.html

Extractions: Sailing Ship. In former times called a Schooner Bark or Hermaphrodite Schooner, the rig is now called a Main Topsail Schooner. This type of rig was most preferred by Privateers, Opium Runners and Slave Ships dating back to the 1830's. These small sailing ships had to be fast on all points of sail in order to survive. Alvei now sails long Trade Wind passages using the old sailing ship routes. We can set 16 sails totaling 538 sq. meters (5800 sq. ft.) There are 139 lines of running rigging totaling nearly 7 kilometers of line. We use the main engine only to assist in getting in or out of ports which we can't enter under sail. At sea we use sail only and sometimes have slow passages. The Idea. The purpose of ALVEI is to allow her crew to maintain a low cost, self-sufficient lifestyle on the world's oceans, while learning the traditional arts of the sailor. To that end the rig of the ship and the style of operation have the simplicity found in sailing ships from a bygone era. Back to Basics . Like the ship herself, the lifestyle is similar to what would be found on sailing ships of over a century ago. Instead of modern winches we build and use block and tackle. It takes a team of people to 'sweat and tail' as we set and handle sail. We row the shore boat and weigh anchor by hand. There is ample fresh water for cooking and drinking, but cleaning and bathing are done with sea water. You can scrub your laundry on the cabin top and hang it on the Lazy Jacks to dry. There is an abundance of healthy food, fresh veggies and meat while in port with dry stores and tinned food to use at sea, but no refrigeration.

Extractions: Comment: Linda Greenlaw made a name for herself as a successful swordfish boat captain based out of Gloucester, Massachusetts. Sebastian Junger wrote about her in "The Perfect Storm" and she subsequently wrote about herself in "The Hungry Ocean". (I haven't read either of those so no comments there.) Ready for a change, she returned to the small Maine island where she had grown up, Isle Au Haut. The island has only a few dozen residents, and many of them are her relatives. Like most locals, she set herself up as a lobster fisherman, with her father as her assistant. This book describes her life on the island and one lobster season.

Project Leaders: Dr. Shirayama Yoshihisa, Seto Marine Biological Laboratory, Kyoto University, Wakayama, Japan Dr. Brenda Konar, Assistant Professor Marine Science, University of Alaska Fairbanks, Institute of Marine Science, Fairbanks, Alaska, USA Visit the NaGISA Web Site The Natural Geography In Shore Areas (NaGISA) project is one of seven initial field projects of the Census of Marine Life (CoML). It is a collaborative effort aimed at inventorying and monitoring the biodiversity in the narrow inshore zone of the world's oceans at depths of less than 20 meters, the area people know best and impact most. This is reflected in the Japanese word nagisa, referring to the narrow coastal zone where land meets the sea. NaGISA holds a unique position in the Census of Marine Life as an ambassador project, linking CoML to local interests. It is an exercise in international cooperation and capacity building. NaGISA will complete an equatorial longitudinal gradient from the east coast of Africa to the Palmyra Atoll, and a pole-to-pole latitudinal transect from the northern coast of Alaska to Antarctica's McMurdo Sound. NaGISA employs a simple, cost-efficient and intentionally low-tech sampling protocol that can be adopted by many research groups and countries, and encourage local community involvement. The ultimate goal is a series of well-distributed standard transects from the high intertidal zone to 20 meters water depth around the world, which can be repeated over a 50-year or even greater time frame.

Extractions: Stand on any beach or shoreline and look out toward the water. What you'll see is an area called the nearshore, which is a part of all coastal watersheds. The nearshore is defined as an indefinite zone extending seaward from the shoreline well beyond the breaker zone. It defines the area where the current system is caused primarily by wave action. Whether marine or freshwater, nearshore waters serve a variety of functions. They provide a unique habitat for a variety of plants and animals. Sea grasses and other aquatic plants living in the nearshore waters provide food and shelter for many species of fish and shellfish. Many marine organisms, including most commercially valuable fish species, depend on nearshore waters at some point during their development. Nearshore waters provide habitat for 80 percent of the fish species in the United States.

http://www.epa.gov/owow/oceans/debris/

Extractions: for Children, Students and Teachers Marine debris, often called litter, has become a problem along shorelines, coastal waters, estuaries, and oceans throughout the world. It is defined as any man-made, solid material that enters our waterways directly (e.g., by dumping) or indirectly (e.g., washed out to sea via rivers, streams, storm drains, etc.). Objects ranging from detergent bottles, hazardous medical wastes, and discarded fishing line all qualify as marine debris. In addition to being unsightly, it poses a serious threat to everything with which it comes into contact. Marine debris can be life-threatening to marine organisms and humans and can wreak havoc on coastal communities and the fishing industry. Sources of Marine Debris There are two different sources from which debris pollutes our oceans. The first is from the land and includes users of the beach, storm water-runoff, landfills, solid waste, rivers, and streams, floating structures, ill maintained garbage bins and dumps and litterbugs. Marine debris also comes from combined sewer overflows, and storm drains. Typical debris from these sources includes medical waste, street litter and sewage. Land-based sources cause 80% of the marine debris found on our beaches and waters.

Extractions: Status of Marine Life Over 240 invasive species are found in San Francisco Bay alone and scientists estimate a new species enters the Bay every 12 days; more than 120 invasive species are now found in Chesapeake Bay. Within several years of arriving in San Francisco Bay via ballast water discharge, the invasive Chinese clam accounted for greater than 95% of the sea floor biomass, displacing much of the former benthic community and completely altering Bay food webs. The Texas coastline has been invaded by an Indo-Pacific mussel, Perna perna, which now forms monocultural stands on jetties for scores of kilometers along the Gulf of Mexico shore.
