Black Smoker You've probably seen or heard of natural hot springs on land, like Old Faithful at Yellowstone National Park. Similar phenomena occur under the oceans within midocean ridge volcanoes and are called deep-sea hydrothermal (hot water) vents. They are known as black smokers , like the ones seen above. These black smokers are chimneylike structures made up of sulfur-bearing minerals or sulfides that come from beneath Earth's crust. They form when hot (roughly 350¡C), mineral-rich water flows out onto the ocean floor through the volcanic lava on a mid-ocean ridge volcano. Black Smoker Sulfide minerals grow or crystallize from the hot water directly onto the volcanic rocks at the place where the hot, mineral-rich water flows from the ground. This crystallization forms a hollow, chimneylike sulfide structure through which the hot water continues to flow. As the hot, mineral-rich water rushes out of this chimney and mixes with the cold ocean bottom water, it precipitates a variety of minerals as tiny particles that make the the vent water appear black in color. This is why these sulfide chimney structures are called black smokers. Black smokers tend to occur on sulfide mounds (large piles of sulfide minerals built up over time) in vent fields that are typically tens of meters across. The areas of these fields range from pool table size (4 square meters) to tennis court size (770 square meters). Vent fields with towering sulfide chimneys on the Juan de Fuca Ridge (the destination of this expedition) have been compared to Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah. Other vents have been given names based on their appearance, such as Anemone Heaven, Garden of Eden, Snake Pit, Whelks Club, and Beehives.

http://archive.greenpeace.org/~oceans/piratefishing/governmentaction.html
Governments recognise the pirate fishing problem... will they act to stop it? The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) has established international negotiations involving up to 100 countries to produce an International Plan of Action to combat pirate fishing. This process was reinforced in April 1999 by the United Nations Convention on Sustainable Development which called on the International Maritime Organisation to develop legally binding measures to close the loophole in international law which allows vessels to fish under flags of convenience. Also, the United Nations General Assembly adopted another resolution addressing pirate fishing on November 24, 1999. In debating the threats to the world's oceans, the UN Secretary General and the General Assembly placed particular emphasis on the need to eradicate illegal fishing, primarily by fishing vessels flying flags of convenience. The United Nations General Assembly Resolution (November 24, 1999): 6. Calls upon all States to ensure that their vessels comply with the conservation and management measures in accordance with the Agreement that have been adopted by subregional and regional fisheries management organisations and arrangements;

To Netnews Homepage Previous Next Index ... Table of Contents The Rays and the Initiations - Part Two - Section Two - The Aspirant and the Major Initiations The Results of Fourth Ray Activity upon the individual Disciple The disciples of the world today are submerged in an ocean of warring energies; the Principle of Conflict touches every life, is potent in the consciousness of each individual aspirant, and is conditioning the mass consciousness of mankind. Emotionally and physically, the masses in every land are roused by this conflict; the disciples on earth and the thinking people everywhere are aroused mentally, as well as emotionally and physically, and hence the intensity of their problem. The points of crisis in the lives of disciples have - during the past few decades - been many; a point of tension has now been reached of an extreme nature; how rapidly can this tension bring about the needed point of emergence? Today, the conflicts are numerous, vital and unavoidable; they are present in the individual consciousness and in the mass consciousness; they present constant points of crises and are today bringing about a point of world tension which seems well-nigh unbearable. But ahead of the individual disciple and of humanity lies a point of emergence. What must the disciple do whilst the point of tension is dominating him and his fellowmen? The answer is a simple one. Let each disciple and all groups of disciples develop the ability to think sanely, with right orientation and a broad point of view; let them think truly, evading no issues, but preserving always a calm, dispassionate and loving understanding; let them demonstrate in their environment the qualities which will establish right human relations and show on a small scale the behavior which will some day characterize enlightened humanity; let them not be discouraged, but let them hold firmly to the conviction of the inevitable spiritual destiny of humanity; let them realize

The Gulf Loop is a strong current in the eastern Gulf of Mexico. It can be a short loop (Step 1), or stretched very long (Step 2). When it is long, it often pinches off a spinning body of water called an eddy (Step 3). These eddies drift westward over many weeks (Step 4). They slowly lose energy in the western Gulf. This cycle repeats itself several times a year. Click image for a larger view. Currents in a Cul-de-Sac

Gulf Surface Currents
Surface currents are ocean currents in which the moving water lies between the surface and a maximum depth of about 500m. Currents that are no deeper than 200m are usually caused by the wind pushing on the water. Currents as deep as 500m usually are caused by forces associated with the rotating Earth and are called geostrophic (Earth-turned) currents. In our exploration of the Gulf of Mexico we are concentrating our research on the ecology below 500m and are very interested in the Gulf Loop, an example of geostrophic flow that strongly influences our exploration area. The Gulf Loop flows in through the straits of Yucatan and exits through the straits of Florida. Sometimes it is confined to the coast of Cuba. At other times, it flows along a long loop to the North before turning south and eventually exiting through the straits of Florida. This elongated loop is unstable and pinches off large eddies that spin clockwise as they drift westward. The eddies eventually spin down in the western Gulf. They sweep over the bottom and may have a great influence on the ecology.

Introduction To Mosquitoes
Biology and Identification of Mosquitoes (Aedes, Culex, Anopheles) Life Cycle
Feeding Habits Seasonal Abundance ... Summary
The purpose of this article is to provide you with some reasonably detailed background information on mosquitoes and the reduction of its population. At the same time it cannot provide all the relevant information. I have tried to gear this article to the needs and the environment of a beach community such as Ocean Beach and Fire Island in general. Mosquitoes remain a major killer in other parts of the world, in the US they are more or less a nuisance with the exception of a few species that can carry disease. Mosquitoes serve a vital ecological function in that their larvae, pupae, and adults are important food sources for fish, birds, bats, frogs, and insects. All mosquitoes require water to complete their life cycle. If we could control standing water, we could manage mosquitoes. While we can empty cans, fill a puddle, we cannot as easily manage salt marshes. Biology and Identification of Mosquitoes There are about 13 genera in the US. Most pest mosquitoes belong to one of three: Aedes, Culex, or Anopheles. Long Island and Fire Island has about 42 different species. Not all of them bite humans and only the females need the bloods protein to mature their eggs.

floor (continental shelves, slopes, and rises; ocean basins), then let's look atthe general depth zones Penguin Note ocean life is vital to us land dwellers!
http://www.glacier.rice.edu/oceans/4_oceanfloorpieces.html
Before we can understand the importance of the Antarctic oceanic circulation, we must understand the general oceanic circulation patterns of the globe. Remember, all of our oceans are interconnected!
First, let's define the distinct areas of the ocean floor (continental shelves, slopes, and rises; ocean basins), then let's look at the general depth zones of the ocean (surface, pycnocline, and deep waters).
continental shelf - the submerged top of the continent's edge between the shoreline and the continental slope. The shelf is made more shallow by deposition of material eroded
continental slope Sedimentary material on the continental slope is very unstable because of the steep gradient.
continental rise - at the base of the continental slope. It is a depositional feature, comprised of sediment that has moved down off the shelf and slope. The rise overlies the transition between the continent and the ocean basin, and it commonly receives material slumped off the steeply inclined slope.
Cross-section of the ocean showing the continental shelf, slope, and rise, and the abyssal plain (modified from Davis, 1991). The lower drawing shows the depth change at the true scale.
continental margin - includes the continental shelf, slope and rise. The continental margins comprise about 21% of the total ocean!

Background Objectives Who Does What?
I n recognition of the importance of the ocean, the marine environment and its resources for life on earth and for sustainable development, the United Nations has declared as the International Year of the Ocean . This provides a window of opportunity for governments, organizations and individuals to become aware of the ocean issues and to consider the actions needed to undertake our common responsibility to sustain the greatest common heritage we have and without which we cannot exist. T he overall objective is to focus and reinforce the attention of the public, governments and decision makers at large on the importance of the oceans and the marine environment as resources for sustainable development. The major aim of the joint efforts during 1998 will be to create awareness and obtain commitments from governments to take action, provide adequate resources and give the priority to the ocean and coastal areas which they deserve as finite economical assets. One Earth
One Ocean
One Life This is most important, in view of the increasing threats of pollution, population pressure, excessive fishing, coastal zone degradation and climate variability to the finite resource the ocean represents.
