Mid-ocean ridge

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 ocean becomes polluted because people dump trash in many places like bandages, vitals of blood and syringes. Ocean Pollution affects many animals, for example the birds and fish. 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…

A kind of splendidly hued ocean slug has a preference for infinitesimal marine animals called zooplankton, and it feeds on them utilizing a technique that has never been seen: It catches them in a swallow by utilizing an agent. The ocean slug's clueless partners are hydroid polyps — tiny, coral-like creatures that live in colonies and feed on zooplankton. The ocean slug, known as a nudibranch (pronounced nooda-brank), regards the polyps as living fishing nets, energetically scooping them up and…

The Whale and the Shrimp Once, long, long ago Shawn and his friends were hanging out in the sand yard. He and his friends didn’t get along perfectly, but they had fun together, most of the time. Bennett was being a fish-face (as per usual) since he was the biggest of all the shrimp. Shawn was the smallest of all his shrimp friends resulting in him being the target of most of Bennett’s teasing. It was on that day, a Tuesday in July, Bennett pushed Shawn over the edge. He had told Shawn his tail…

A series of small waves pressed the sail boat against the alge dock as his cold and cracked hands desperately yanked on the rope in an effort to raise the sails. Dark clouds had moved in the night before and had stayed overnight providing a refreshing sprinkle of rain every now and then. He looked out over the vast plain of unsettled water and saw one individual white cap rise up among the rest only to be pushed back down. Due to the lack of sunlight the frigid water appeared black and lifeless…

In addition to Global Warming’s impact on water, it also impacts the environment, harming ice and bodies of water, plants, and animals. Firstly, Global Warming leads to a shrinkage of glaciers and causes ice on rivers and lakes to break earlier. This decrease in ice also accelerates the rising of sea levels (NASA, The Consequences of Climate Change). Additionally, Global Warming impacts plants, as they are no longer able to survive in certain climates and locations, and trees are flowering…

have the beach all to myself. It’s like my personal sanctuary and a beautiful place that I can call my own for awhile. I take off my flip flops, sinking my feet into the wet, yellow sand. Without a moment of hesitation, I dive myself in a large ocean wave. I hold my breath as long as I can before swimming up to the surface. I climb up a huge rock, and…
