Oceanography

Introduction Every year an average of 88,000 pounds of debris washes up on California beaches, and there is an estimated 3.5 million tons of trash in the Pacific Ocean alone. I know what you’re thinking, why does this matter to us? I had the same question, so I researched the topic and found a plethora of information from scientists and sailors alike. Today I will explain to you why the amount of debris is so unnerving and urge you to do what we can do to help clean this problem up. Body Need…

The water stay brown, Gotta move out of town Did you ever want to go swimming in a place where rubbish is literally 90% of the ocean? If not then there are gonna be changes to come, because as of now it has been recorded that nearly 10,000 tons of rubbish have been dumped into the oceans, not including all the oil spills that have occured. All this pollution to the marine life has been not only ruining human lives, but marine mammals lives, eventually leading up to their deaths. Countries all…

In Cold Stream,1966 I believe Twombly attempts to internalized Mallarme’s boundless confidence to search for his ideal and transforms an empty blackboard into an endless voyage within the sea. The sea, symbolic, becomes a vast expansion of divine chance. Abysmal and ever evolving, the sea is in constant motion whether on the surface or beneath just like the conscious and unconsciousness of our minds. The sea and the mind’s violent turbulence, the clarity of its stillness, ever changing, we…

Causes of the accident The direct and indirect causes connected to the sequence of events in the Bourbon Dolphin accident are listed below: Direct causes • External forces from weather and current; • Unfavourable heading of the vessel in relation to external forces; • Machinery black out and the consequent reduction of manoeuvrability; • Lowering the towing pin, which led to larger angle of attack; • Loading condition and vessel stability characteristics. Indirect causes • Weakness in…

TITLE I was suffocating. It was a scorching summer day in Didim, a coastal town in Turkey. The water park was a war zone where the crowd of giants flowed faster than the water in the rides. It felt like a five-year-old like me could be trampled any moment. I held onto my mother tightly to as a protection. Out of the blue, my sweaty hand slipped from my mother’s. As I tried to hold onto her, the crowd pushed me left and right. I shouted for her, but everyone roared at that same time. My mother…

It should be in everyones best interest to minimise the world’s marine pollution, the vast growth of pollution in our ocean is affecting marine life such as coral reefs and sea animals. With pollution on the rise it is declining our marine future, which can be a worry for the worlds oxygen with a large percentage of the planet’s oxygen coming from marine plants. Marine life stability is one of the most important issues this century. We are constantly having large numbers of sea animals dying…

Red tide has always been an issue for the beaches of Florida. Because of the smell and the fish washing up on shore, red tide puts stress on the economy. The billion-dollar tourist industry takes a decline when red tide comes around. Also, red tide puts stress on the environment causing algae to give the water a red discoloration and deplete the water of oxygen causing fish and other marine life to sadly die. Because of the toxins created by red tide, skin irritations and respiratory trouble may…

By 2048, the fish population in the Atlantic Ocean will be completely depleted. Overfishing or in other words known as unsustainable fishing has become the main factor for this. The Atlantic Ocean is home to many marine species and while their numbers are diminishing, with limits on overfishing, increasing public awareness, and creating groups/programs for helping to restore the ocean, people can tackle this problem. Unsustainable fishing is a very tricky problem to solve because of many things…

When I grow up, I want to be a marine mammal trainer. This has always been my dream job because I love marine animals more than any other kind of animals. I want to be able to build relationships with them, take care of them, and play with them on a daily basis. I chose this career because I’ll be getting to do what I love every day for a living. This is a very fun and hands-on job. All day you are working with the animals or performing/speaking to the public. Another thing that made me choose…
