nitrogen goes elsewhere such as into bodies of water. Once there is too much nitrogen in the water, there becomes a lack of oxygen causing species living in that water to be unable to breathe. It becomes a dead zone in that body of water because of the marine life in it escaping the horrible conditions to go elsewhere or simply dying from suffocation because they are not able to leave. Bottom dwellers have the smallest chance of survival in hypoxic waters. Dead zones are spreading across many…
In a study published in the in the Marine Pollution Bulletin, found that shark fins had high concentrations of arsenic. These high levels can result in serious implications for consumers of shark fin soup. Dr. Reichelt-Brushett, one of the researchers involved in the study, additionally…

example of littering in our society, but if this issue is not resolved, the ecosystem will suffer greatly. Victorian Litter Action Alliance’s “Litter Statistics Fact Sheet” stresses that as a result of littering, “1 million sea birds and 100,000 marine animals die each year after becoming entangled in or ingesting litter”, which reveals the major impact littering has on our ecosystem (1). Thus, our ecosystem suffers…
letting Kristi take her friends on a whale watching ride. Scott was a marine biologist and he inherited the boat from his father and started a whale watching business. Kristi’s friends Tatum, Chandler, and Brielle had never gone whale watching, let alone on a high class boat on a private whale tour. Kristi had baked chocolate chip cookies the night before to make the ride extra special. Tatum loved marine life and she brought a marine life book and binoculars. Scott said,” We are going to see…
atmosphere which then ends up in our oceans. People should car pool instead of driving, ride bicycles or take public transportations. Craig Welch stated that with CO2 increase ocean water becomes harmful making it difficult for marine life to sustain normal growth. Marine life would be lost, impacting people around the world in different ways. Fishermen would no longer for a job, will no longer be able to provide the basic subsistence for their families. People who rely on the ocean for a…
Worldwide, overfishing has had profound effects on coastal ecosystems. Additionally, the approach that humans have taken to commercial fishing such as targeting of apex predators first and then fishing down the food chain has a negative effect on predators in most regional seas of the world. However, while researchers may know the effect that overfishing has had on specific species, how this may influence the rest of the ecosystem is relatively unpredictable. It is hypothesized that the loss of…
and changes in climates”. This is not just true for humans, but for animals as well. The more people fish and the more marine life that goes extinct the smaller the species get which could lead to a lot of diseases which could kill a ton of animals and soon there would not be a mass amount left. That is why Earle makes it very important that the reader knows that by every marine animal that goes extinct it doesn’t just hurt life in the water but eventually it will start to hurt life out of the…
always wanted to be when I was in my younger years. The answer was simple, a Marine Biologist. That was the quickest and easiest career choice I picked that I wanted to learn more about because I have always had an interest in that particular occupation. Throughout my whole life, I have always told people that I wanted to move to the coast and be a Marine Biologist. I absolutely love spending time with animals, particularly marine animals. I don’t think that I would have ever found this…
and a young idealistic black boy grows with more realistic and achievable expectations. My dreams changed from being iconic and top of the pyramid, to a much deeper and observational role. I wanted to scour the deep in search of different marine life as a marine biologist.…
