From the Forest to the Sea: The Ecology of Wood in Streams, Rivers, Estuaries and Oceans From the Forest to the Sea: The Ecology of Wood in Streams, Rivers, Estuaries and Oceans is a fascinating new scientific work that discusses the role wood plays in very complex and diverse aquatic ecosystems. Until now almost nothing has been published on this little understood topic. 1. Wood in streams and rivers is a source of food energy for invertebrate organisms; habitat for vertebrate organisms, such as fish; and a structural component that shapes, diversifies, and stabilizes channels while helping to dissipate the water's energy before it can scour channels. 2. Wood in estuaries is a major source of food and habitat for obligatory, wood boring, marine invertebrates that in their feeding , break it down and pass usable carbon into the water's current where it enters the detrital based marine food web. 3. Wood along the coastline stabilizes sand spits, beaches, and dune complexes, as well as battering rocky shores where it creates new habitats for intertidal organisms and provides small splinters of wood to the coastal food chain.

    BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
    Water is a non-renewable resource. It cycles through our system in the forms of clouds, precipitation, ground water, streams and rivers, oceans, plants and animals. A single drop of water in a water bottle today may have been a drop drunk by dinosaurs, it might have been part of the glaciers at one time, and it could have been in the ocean when Columbus crossed it. Conserving and protecting our water from pollution is vital to us as well as to the environment. Once in the water cycle, pollution can often travel, affecting the entire system. For example pollution can be picked up by rain and carried to a hillside. The pollution will then seep into the ground and soil water or runoff into a stream or lake. Plants soak up the water from the soil, and animals drink it from the streams. The pollution can be transferred in the water. One area that often acts as a water cleaner is a wetland. Location: Rock Creek Park Nature Center or Peirce Mill Length: 1.5 hours

    What is ecology?

    What we are concerned about when we are dealing with ecology is how living beings are related to each other and the conditions they are living in. A living being affects and is affected by other beings of its own species and of other species. What all beings in general require for survival (energy, shelter, etc.) and also for the continuing existence of their species are the main factors determining the nature of these relationships. Besides that the non-living environment has a great influence on the lives of all other living and non-living things forming the ecosystems.
    Physical Environment
    Soil, air and water mainly make up this non-living environment. In addition to these, the sunlight effects the living conditions to a great extent. The production of food inside plant bodies, which initiates the chain of life, would not take place in the absence of sunlight. The existence of plants and all other living beings in return would cease if it were not for the sun. Temperature also depends mainly on sunlight. In return, humidity, which is a measure of the amount of water vapour present in air, is dependent on temperature. Temperature and humidity are two important factors to influence the living beings greatly.

    Students will understand the following:
    The threat to water ecosystems is a complex problem because many factors contribute to their pollution and destruction. The following factors all play major roles in the pollution and destruction of water ecosystems: PCBs, DDT, metylmercury chloride, sewer sludge, thermal effluents, radioactive wastes, destruction of marshlands, and beach erosion. Methods to combat the above factors exist. More methods are being developed and need to be developed. For this lesson, you will need:

    Do you think air pollution doesn't really cost us anything? According to a report released by the American Lung Association in 1996, more than 90 million Americans still live in areas that are classified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as violating federal health standards for ozone. The report found that ozone is linked to approximately 10,000 to 15,000 hospital admissions and an estimated 30,000 to 50,000 emergency room visits in the 13 metropolitan areas that were examined. For more facts:

    • the oceans which cover over 89 % of the planet's surface (Earth's ocean coverage = 70%) the deep,cold waters of the Greater OSIRIS Crater Lake the coral reefs and the estuaries and rivers
    Due to factors caused by biological stressors geological events and severe weather conditions along with the fact that the OSIRIS oceans account for most of the planet surface, the probability of biomes (environmental divisions based on similar climate, plants and animals) are very few. What this means is both the land and water ecosystems existing on OSIRIS are extremely diverse and unique, at least at this point in the planet's life. However, these factors which create such diversification also contribute greatly to how living and nonliving things interact (the ecosystems) on the planet.
