A look beneath Marine biology has peaked my interest with its overwhelming amount of things to study. The ocean, along with other bodies of water, are a marine biologist’s playground. Not only do they study fish, but the quality of the water, the plants, the wavelength periods, acidity, and many more aspects. However, to become a marine biologist one must have a Bachelor of Science degree in marine biology, this includes classes such as biology I and II, general chemistry I and II,…

Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to explore and delve deep into the ocean. I dreamt of breathing underwater and discovering a vastly unknown world that surrounds all of us. This lead to my interest in Marine Biology and how it has pushed my character past any interfering influence. There were so many media outlets that helped drive my passion for the water. The best way I can imagine to spend my time is to relax on a couch watching some of the best ocean films in history. There are great ones…

Dumpster divers can be the bane of a business owner's existence. While they are out there rifling through your dumpster under the cover of darkness (or often even in broad daylight,) they can leave behind a mess that you have to send one of your employees out to clean up. Not only is this frustrating, but it is ultimately costing your money when it comes to wasted time your staff could be using to do their actual job instead. Unless it is specifically prohibited by local regulations, dumpster…

Looking back at the dock, the security of solid land gets smaller and smaller. I think of how my crew and I had to lug our gear- diving suits, flippers, goggles, BSD vests, regulators, bulky air tanks and all- onto the boat. I turn my eyes to the blue abyss ahead of me, but it is not the soft light blue-green that we find at the shallow end but the deeper, more somber blue that represents the enigma of the ocean and the journey that lies ahead of me. Then the boat stops moving and it's time…

Scuba diving has taken many lives over the years. According to research, in 1975 there were about 213,000 divers in the United States. By 1990, there were about 2.45-3.1 million. This increase in numbers means that the number of recreational divers is increasing quickly, and there is a clear need for awareness of dangers and injuries that may occur. Coral reefs, shipwrecks, caverns, and many other underwater treasures around the world are great for scuba divers wanting to explore the underwater…

the picture above and try to figure out my story. Now before I go into too much detail about the picture and tell you my story, I need to give you just a little background information. I first got certified to be a scuba diver in 2011, and I was just turning twelve at the time. Scuba diving is my life and I enjoy every single second I get to be underwater. So, my mom and I have been to many places to dive including: Key Largo, Florida; Key West, Florida; Jupiter, Florida; West Palm, Florida;…

information on the subject. I was so difficult for me to complete because I was an expert of coral reefs. So I finally through that topic out and choose to do a speech on Scuba diving. Which I am no expert, but I do have some knowledge about the subject. The week of October 6 I was supposed to being giving my speech on Scuba diving but due to work I was sent to Jacksonville Florida to aid the team during Hurricane Matthew. I heard everyone did very well on the speeches and I am sorry I…

I used a site similar to the…

Dangers of Underwater Exploration There are over fifty careers that have a sort of connection to underwater exploration. Many people explore for a living and others only for personal interest such as scuba diving. There have been many theories about objects getting lost in the ocean and many people go deep in the ocean to find them. For example, the lost land of Atlantis is said to have silver and gold (Drye). Based on Plato’s writings, philosophers say that as punishment to the…

In-between work and my busy personal schedule tending to my exotic animal farm in my hometown Austin, Texas. I found the time to take a road trip up to Myrtle beach, South Carolina to do some scuba diving and capture pictures of barracudas, manta and sting rays, as well as the bounty of coral reefs for my school project. With my Advanced Open Water Diving license not only am i able to dive by myself but i can enter protected zones in the deep sea diving zones of Myrtle beach. There is over 10…
