62. Ocean Health And Ocean Science In Crisis failed to recognize that broad patterns of decline in fish and other marine life offer strong evidence consistent with a fundamental decline in ocean fertility http://www.fisherycrisis.com/DFO/minister0304.htm

Ocean Health and Marine Science: in Crisis Together by Debbie MacKenzie , March 9, 2004 (See also Mr. Regan's reply to this letter, received April 19, 2004 and my response to our eventual meeting on April 30, 2004) The Honorable Geoff Regan, M.P. Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada 200 Kent Street Ottawa, ON K1A 0E6 Min@dfo-mpo.gc.ca Dear Mr. Regan, DFO has committed a grave error in putting the ocean in the back seat, while single-mindedly pursing the goals of fisheries. Mr. Regan, I am dissatisfied with your reply to my earlier correspondence. In November, 2003, I sent to your office my concerns regarding serious shortcomings of DFO Science. However, presumably on the advice of the science branch, you deflected my input with “I would suggest that you have your work submitted to a relevant scientific journal.” Perhaps I was too abstract in my cover letter to you, but I doubt it. I had sent to you eleven written articles and a videotape, with the request that DFO Science review the concerns raised within. While some of my work I might reasonably choose to send the route of standard scientific publication, I have raised some very specific points that require answers now from the DFO Science branch. The focus of my concern is specifically “oceans” health rather than “fisheries” health. DFO’s mandate includes both, in an arrangement that now appears to have been surprisingly inappropriate I am now formally requesting you to direct the appropriate members of your scientific staff to respond to the following concerns:

Select Wolves Dolphins Bears Birds Sea Otters Polar Bears Manatees Bison Miracle and Mystery Spawning Ground Dam Dilemmas ... Wildlife Home For those young salmon smolts that make it downstream past Bonneville Dam, the dangers are not over. Gulls and Caspian Terns feed upon thousands and thousands of salmon smolts in the lower Columbia estuary. The Pacific Ocean off the coasts of Oregon and Washington is not safe for salmon either. Sometimes, it is too warm possibly due to affects of El Nino. Under these warm water conditions, food is harder to find when cold water upwelling that brings nutrients to plankton and small forage fish is capped by the warmer El Nino waters. And there are strange predators brought north by the warm currents including mackerel that pounce upon young salmon weakened by lack of food. Once in the ocean a new life begins for the young salmon. Many will migrate through the coastal waters of the Pacific all the way to the shores of Alaska. Salmon spend several years in these waters going from pea size at hatching to some topping 50 lbs. Commercial fishing for salmon is big business in this region.

64. Geography Fact Sheet : Life Under The Oceans Waves rivers. Seasons The seasons influence life in the ocean just as much as they do on land. Because land. fish tend to be more dispersed. http://www.starfish.govt.nz/geography/facts/fact-ocean-life.htm

Life under the ocean waves Preview On the surface, the oceans give few clues as to the huge range of life forms that dwell beneath, and the complex relationships between them. In 1978, New Zealand declared a 200 nautical mile Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and has exclusive management rights to this area. Because of our mid-ocean position and outlying islands, our EEZ is very large - in fact it is the fourth largest in the world, and equal to about 15 times our land area. Within this vast area of ocean is everything from subtropical to sub-Antarctic waters; from shallow estuaries teeming with life to barren undersea trenches up to 10,000 metres deep. The marine environment The marine food chain The continental shelf The deep sea The marine environment The marine environment is constantly changing. Some changes may take thousands of years, like the coming of an ice age, while others are immediate, like a rainstorm that dumps fresh water and silt into a seawater tidal pool. When the environment changes, so do the inhabitants - either by

65. Bioluminescent Sea Life: BALDRIGE The most abundant species by far, however, are the small, midwater and deep ocean fish, that have not been collected as extensively, so there are still new http://www.cs.ucf.edu/~MidLink/bald.q.ga.html

Bioluminescent Creatures on the BALDRIGE Brett Fields asks: 1. How deep do bioluminescent creatures live underwater? Captain Nelson answers: Most of the common occurrences of bioluminescence in the ocean are observed right at the surface or in the surface layers (several meters to tens of meters, within the euphotic zone). In its most familiar form, bioluminescence, which is a biochemical reaction in certain marine organisms, appears as a bluish-green fluorescent glow in the water as the surface is disturbed by the bow wave or wake from a ship or by cresting or breaking waves. Bioluminescence is quite often observed on a ship itself, as most ships are equipped with a salt-water system for flushing toilets. If a toilet is flushed in a dark bathroom (called a "head" on ships) the toilet bowl will often glow because of the bioluminescent microscopic organisms in the sea water used for flushing. Bioluminescent displays may occasionally take on more spectacular forms, such as appearing as parallel lines or like spiraling spokes of wheels, of pulsating light that extend to the horizon. In the surface layers of the ocean, the group of single-celled marine organisms called dinoflagellates (including one microscopic organism called noctiluca) are likely one of the primary sources of the bioluminescence observed in the ocean. However, a variety of other, larger marine organisms, that inhabit the abyssal depths of the oceans also display bioluminescent characteristics. Within the deep-scattering layer (mid-ocean depths between 200 and 1000 meters) certain species of myctophids, lantern fish, euphausids (shrimp-like crustaceans), and jellyfish all display certain forms of bioluminescence. Even in depths exceeding the average depths of the world's ocean basins (~ 4000 meters), bioluminescent organimsms have been collected and observed in such situations.

The major goals of oceanography are to understand the geologic and geo-chemical processes involved in the evolution and alteration of the ocean and its basin, to evaluate the interaction of the ocean and the atmosphere so that greater knowledge of climactic variations can be attained, and to describe how the biological productivity in the sea is controlled. The world ocean covers 71 percent of the earth's surface, or about 361 million square kilometers, or about 140 million square miles. Its average depth is 5000m or 16,000 ft., and its total volume is about 1,347,000,000 cubic km, or 332,3000,000 cubic miles!

69. American Oceans Campaign - Sustainable Seafood harvested or raised in a manner that does not deplete fish stocks, result in the unintentional capture of marine mammals and other ocean life, reduce water http://www.americanoceans.org/fish/sustain.htm

Ocean-Friendly Seafood Americans love fish. Each year, U.S. consumers spend almost $50 billion on seafood. To most seafood lovers, there appears to be an ever-growing abundance and variety of seafood in their favorite restaurants and in their local supermarket. Contrary to the perceptions of most consumers, however, fish and other seafood are a finite resource. Rising consumer demand here and abroad is depleting fishing stocks around the world. Currently, two-thirds of the world's major marine fisheries are already overfished, fully fished or depleted. Forty years ago that figure was less than 5%. Ironically, much of the fish caught never makes onto the dinner plate. Almost one-third of the total world catch–over 27 million metric tons–is made up of "untargeted" fish, marine mammals, sea turtles and seabirds that are caught unintentionally as the result of unselective fishing gear and practices. The vast majority of this "bycatch" is discarded, either dead or dying. Certain fishing practices also damage marine habitats vital to fisheries, marine life and coastal communities. Bottom trawling and dredging destroy the fragile sea floor habitats that serve as living, breeding and nursery areas for many marine species.

When hunting, seals can hold their breath for as long as an hour. Some Antarctic algae (tiny single-celled plants) have got little hairs for swimming in the snow. That way they can reach the sunlight, which they need for making food. Of the 20,000 known species of fish in the world, only 120 live in the Southern Ocean. Antarctic fish have adapted to the freezing conditions by developing a special `antifreeze' component in their blood fluids. Adult male Southern Elephant seals can weigh up to 2,200 kilograms. There are about 85 species of krill, ranging in size from under 1cm to up to 14cm. The dominant krill in the Southern Ocean is the Antarctic krill, which is about 6 cm long and has a life span of about 5-10 years.
