MY ANIMOTO

Beautiful… Tranquil…Divine… Those are just a few of the words that could describe this place. They say a “picture is worth a thousand words…” well no one could take enough photos to describe the beauty of Andros.

this fish is crazy!!! it reminds of a fish that they talked about at the Monterrey Bay Aquarium, the Humpback Anglerfish, just because of it's strange appearance. check it out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humpback_anglerfish heres the most interes...

Cheap Bottles of Mateus
Out of all the chapters in this book, this chapter started out with the most true and breathtakingly realistic quote. "For all at last return to the sea- Oceanus, the ocean river, like the ever-flowing stream of time, the beginning and the end." -Rachel Carson. I'm not one to believe in evolution ( I do believe evolution in terms of… Continue

REEF GO BOOM; Death by Dynomite in Indonesia...
I know, the title sounds immature, I thought the same thing after I typed it... Yet, it has a feel to it. The people in Indonesia are "ignorant". Most of the fisherman don't know the harm they are doing to the reef. They are slowly killing it off, yet one can ask, Are they allowed too? The poor fishing communities heavily rely on the Fishing Industry, and when they are make very little hauling in large boats, they have to do what they need to… Continue

Depression in the Thousand Islands: Jakarta Bay
Wow... Thanks A Lot Osha! You've written so many nice and interesting chapters into this book, and then throw this depressing one in. Just Kidding... I'm actually glad this chapter was so much in detail and contained many facts that EVERYONE needs to know about. Nash always talked about how the reefs have changed near Andros since he started going there, and how a lot of the coral is dying. Well, hate to break it to you all (actually, Osha kinda already did), people are killing the reefs.
Osha… Continue

Serendipity in the Reefs, and Fishy Stories
Chapter 7, to me, was very informative. It made me think of what any person could do, with no boundaries, such as age or experience. What if we go down to the Bahamas and discover something new, serendipity to our main cause. It would be amazing to be written about in a magazine or a newspaper; the marine biology group from Smalltown, MO, smack in the middle of the continent, discover something on a yearly trip that experienced scientists and divers have just overlooked. It’s a stretch, but I sa… Continue

EXCELLENT POINT.
however, i have thought abut this much, and i actually have a plan.
i just haven't shared this one as of yet.
because i want this site to be not only a fun communication tool and network...
i also want it to be a place that is dripping with solid intellectual discourse.
therefore- i want us to really sculpt the site into that very thing prior to
bringing in any of the alumni. i want them to be impressed with the work you have done up to that point.
this way- when they choose to contribute on the site... they will have a lot to live up to!
it is all about building excellence from the ground up. we WILL invite our alumni in. in fact, i can't
WAIT. however, we will do it with a bit of a plan. i am thinking about halfway through our Enchanted Braid
project we will have enough work to show for what we have been doing to open it up to a wider audience.
make sense?
i appreciate your message very much. keep 'em coming!
;-)

Use the space below to reflect on our latest class session... and introduction to the ins & outs of coral reef formation.
The slide set we used to facilitate our chat can be viewed here: (soon)
In the space below, tell what connections you made ...
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.
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...
Before last class period I knew nothing about oceanic zones, I learned that there are two main oceanic zones called the pelagic and the Benthic zones both of which are seperated into smaller zones within them. I also learned that light penetrates ...
Hmmmm..... I see it here just fine.
Nicely done.
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.
Apparent inverted trophic pyramid... apparent. It really cannot be inverted. In fact, this is related to the Law of Conservation of Mass/Energy.
Lungs are good at extracting oxygen from dry air. Gills are efficient only when wet.
Therefore, the paradox is most easily solved with regard to marine critters by finding a way to keep their gills wet during periods of drying.
Make sense?
