Wow. I really had no idea that so much of the food that I consume every day has algae in it. It’s kind of weird if you think about it. Well maybe it is only for me. In zoology, we have only ever talked about algae when we were discussing how it li...

I totally agree that getting to compare and contrast the west and east coast was really interesting. I had no idea that they were so different! I just thought they were oceans. When you mentioned The Lord of the Rings it made me laugh because I ne...

During our last class I definitely had several aha moments! Way back in third grade we learned about the layers of the Earth: the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. What I never even thought about was whether or not the ocean had levels as...

Very interesting article Casi. Dad

One thing I will never forget from Monday night is the overall impact we are having on marine species just by fishing for them. I really had no idea that some of the fish that we eat all the time are in danger of being over fished. I really am so ...

I like the music, too. If a slide went away too quickly, I just clicked the pause button....Anyway, I like the video just the way it is. The pics were great and the music seemed to set the mood. =]

I did use the spotlight feature but I wasn't sure if that was all you could do to make them stay on the screen longer. Would using a longer song make the slides remain longer? Although, I really kinda liked the music that I used...

I don't think the text is that bad, really. However... it does make sense. Did you use the "spotlight" feature in animoto? You can spotlight images to make them remain on the screen longer and/or show more special transition effects. I'm anxious ...

Hey guys, Thanks for the comments. :) I have been working really hard on this project for a while now and it's good to know that it paid off! I really enjoyed making the animoto video even though I had no idea what I was doing! Mr. Nash, I know ...

Casi, I enjoyed reading your work after seeing the link on Twitter. What I especially enjoyed is your connection of your study of reef work to your background knowledge of the flooding event in Missouri. It's great to see you using so many excelle...

Remember how I told you we wouldn't be working in a vacuum this year? ...That certain parts of our work would be open to a very, very wide audience? Here's perhaps example number one as we look forward to school staring back this week, and our fir...

Wow, Casi... I just sent a message out to Twitter for people to check our your video. I think you did a super job of taking text summary items that were powerful to you, and then remixing them with powerfully illustrative images (not to mention mu...

Coral Bleaching Increases Chances of Coral Disease

"...reef: awe." :)

I found the first four chapters of “The Enchanted Braid” to be very interesting and informative. I enjoyed reading about the history and nature of the coral reef. Darwin’s adventures sucked me in and made me wonder. When Darwin described how he found sea creatures on the mountainside in the Andes I was intrigued. ‘“[A]t the height of a few hundred feet old-looking shells are numerous,” he wrote, “and I found some at 1300 feet.”’ (26) I was somewhat confused after reading this so I pulled out my… Continue

thanks for that on the supralittoral/littoral thing. I guess I should have had my notes in front of me when I wrote that. I had in a big box that said LITTORAL and not supralittoral. And since I did get that wrong on here I probably got that stuck...

I thought last weeks discussion was very interesting. The thing that amazed me were the atolls and how they were formed. I realized that these atolls were old volcanoes that were islands, but the coral grew around the volcano, causing it to sink f...

yes, and yes... and also simply trap it within a structure they can close. think: mollusks.

I understand now. That helps.

To an extent. Does this mean they find water to make gills efficient, or does it mean they produce a saliva or water based substance to clear up their needs?

Whoa. That's sick to think algae is in all those common everyday things Americans eat. Didn't he also say it was in gum. Or am I totally making that up? I'll have to check up on that.
November 23
You did an awesome job looking up all those definitions. I'm a visual learner too, so when I was making my post. I opened up my Marine Biology book. I have to see it in person, or in pictures to understand something. One thing I think we all didn'...

Also, I have a quick question. In this picture, is this considered a tide pool? I am confused because it is not in an enclosed pool but it still has to go through the different levels of high-tide and low-tide.

So I love chocolate milk and pudding so this is a cool way to connect the ocean and the foods we eat to people like me who are not to much of sea food fans. I never would have guessed but i would have never really thought about it either.

Hey this is what mine is about. There are the four different levels and that pretty much determines how much sun and water each are exposed to, i think.

I, being the procrastinator, am just starting to do this assignment (you know the one that is due in just a couple of hours). Therefore, I am doing this two weeks after the lesson and the thing that stuck with me the most was the tide pools. The p...

What happened to my reply? When you click on Zones & Trophic levels and then go to the last page, you don't see mine at all, but if you go over to the Latest Activity and hit the "replied" link, you can see it.

During class, we began to talk about seaweed. When Mr. Nash asked if we knew what it felt like, I hadn't, because I'd never really seen seaweed in real life. I've been to an ocean and all, but never been to a spot that wasn't a beach where tons of...

Remember... the trophic pyramid is real. It is just that above coral reefs... it seems to be "inverted." Of course, this cannot be. There is simply no way to consume more than is produced. Thus, we spoke of the trophic pyramid on a coral reef as b...

Again... excellent clarification of some possible confusion between supralittoral... and littoral.

Global study of salmon shows: 'Sustainable' food isn't so sustainable

Popular thinking about how to improve food systems often misses the point, according to the results of a three-year global study of salmon production systems. Rather than pushing for organic or land-based production, or worrying about simple metrics such as "food miles," the study finds that the world can achieve greater environmental benefits by focusing on improvements production and distribution.

Penguins and sea lions help produce new atlas

Recording hundreds of thousands of individual uplinks from satellite transmitters fitted on penguins, albatrosses, sea lions, and other marine animals, conservation scientists have released the first-ever atlas of the Patagonian Sea -- a globally important but poorly understood South American marine ecosystem.

Marine ecosystems get a climate form guide

The first-ever Australian benchmark of climate change impacts on marine ecosystems and options for adaptation is being released. The Marine Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation Report Card for Australia, and an accompanying website, will provide a biennial guide for scientists, government and the community on observed and projected impacts of climate change on marine ecosystems.

Fish food fight: Fish don't eat trees after all, says new study

Recent theories suggesting that half of fishes' food comes from from land-based ecosystems may not hold water. Experiments show that algae, not land-based matter, is needed to build healthy and fertile aquatic organisms.

California's ancient kelp forest

The kelp forests off southern California are considered to be some of the most diverse and productive ecosystems on the planet, yet a new study indicates that today's kelp beds are less extensive and lush than those in the recent past.
