Vampire Squid Very Strange Squid Species Of all the different varieties of squid, the Vampire Squid is a very strange squid species that makes its travel far below the waters nearly a half-mile down near the bottom of the ocean.

shrunk to an extent that no computer model nor scientist had thought possible. The term, ‘arctic ice melt’ refers to the ice located at the arctic circle that is warming due to severe climate change. In certain high latitude regions such as the Arctic Ocean, the surface waters are actually colder than the deep waters and the halocline, which isolates the surface waters from the deep waters, is responsible for maintaining water column stability. The halocline is important in allowing for the…

of this because your company is producing over 100 billion bottles in a single year. When I learned this startling fact I couldn't help to think that you can be one of the major contributors in the sheer amount of bottles in landfills, and in the ocean. I want to offer a few suggestions to you to help combat the issue so the environment can be saved. As you know your company produces a lot of bottles, and all of the bottles are made out of a plastic called PET which is a petroleum based plastic…

encountering increments in ocean ice degree. However in others, ocean ice is diminishing, with quantifiable effects on untamed life. ASOC trusts that understanding environmental change impacts on Antarctica involves basic significance for the world and for the landmass itself. Neighborhood Antarctic impacts of environmental change are just piece of the issue.…

“CAPTAIN WE'RE GOING TO HIT IT” the captain (F. R. M. Crozier) quickly turned the helm and released the anchor, but it was too late they crashed right into the ice.

People have been throwing junk into the water and it’s been polluting the ocean and affecting the animals. There are two types of ocean pollution. There is point source pollution, its pollution that comes from a specific site. An Non-point source is pollution that comes from many sources.

The birds think that…

Effects of a Toxic Ocean Earth has gone through various changes in climate over the span of its existence. These changes are natural and healthy for the environment. Recently, however, there has been a fluctuation in climate, not caused by the inner workings of the earth. Humans have created many different substances that provide many uses such as packaging and a lightweight, cheap building material. An example of this is plastic; it is a very useful tool, but it has its downfalls. Plastic…

It’s early 1980s and Dr. Robert Ballard has a dream. That dream was to discover the Titanic. The depth of the Atlantic Seabed would force Dr. Ballard to go deeper than any deep-sea diver had gone before. In 1973, the ALVIN (a manned deep- ocean research submersible owned by the United States Navy) had to go through structure changes to withstand the depth necessary to reach the Titanic which was around 13,000 feet. The researchers did not have much to go on in terms of a location for the ship…

that is being thrown in the ocean every minute of every hour of every day. I chose this topic because of the scale of this problem and the speed this problem is growing with. It is a global problem that affects the ocean plants & creatures that live there. So I’ve made a research to tell you about this issue. (Weule) Besides the significant damage it cause to the environment and fauna it affects us directly as well. Today I’m going to tell you why the plastic in the ocean is a bigger problem…
