Faculty of Marine Sciences The faculty of Marine Science at the King Abdulaziz University was established to keep up the pace with the development in marine science and technology, particularly the active role played by the seas and oceans for food, security and provision of safe drinking water. As our understanding of this vast and powerful force of nature increases we realize that in spite of its seeming invulnerability—the ocean and marine life are in real trouble. Mission College Biological Sciences students learn about all the organisms that are around us every day. The James J.

Scientists have new evidence to explain why sea turtles eat and become entangled in plastic so often. Eirini Kardara Shelby-Jay Lewis A self-taught award winning wildlife/scientific illustrator. We should all be equal and afforded equal dignity and respect but this is not the case. Neutrality: we are politically neutral, our only bias is towards improved environmental practice and legislation. The Marine Mammal Research Program Our laboratory is located at the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology on Moku'o Loe, a research institution of the University of Hawaii at Manoa. We know that science is better and more robust when it is fed by different ideas and perspectives. Nature (PBS), Life Series (Blue Planet), Nat Geo Wild, Marine Biology/Conservation, Kinesiology – Personal Training, and, of course, Planet Ocean. A few years ago, after years of feeling something was missing, I decided to change my life. Since 1998, the MarineBio Conservation Society has been a nonprofit volunteer marine conservation and science education group working online together to educate the world about ocean life, marine biology, marine conservation, and a sea ethic. We thank you for your solidarity, especially during this difficult time! Erich has written 18 books (14 for adults, 4 for kids) translated into 20 languages. David Campbell, P.G. We have a duty of care for the planet we inhabit as well as a responsibility to leave a healthy legacy for those who follow us. Our lab started in 1995 and has focused on marine mammal acoustics, hearing and echolocation. There are 12-21 million tonnes of tiny plastic fragments floating in the ocean, scientists say. Students who complete the AS-T in Biology will be able to communicate core biological principles both orally and in writing. Our department focuses on four particular ideals: 1. Special strengths in the department include the ecology and physiology of microbes; bio-optical studies of phytoplankton; advanced optical and acoustic techniques for zooplankton distribution and behavior; the ecology, behavior, development, and genetic history of invertebrates; the behavior and distribution of marine larvae; fish ecology; mathematical analysis and computer modeling of life … 222 no.

The Department of Biology’s Coastal and Marine Biology Flagship Program, under the leadership of Dr. Jim Gelsleichter, is one of only 6 UNF academic programs selected for University Flagship status because of the research accomplishments of its faculty, educational opportunities for its students, and its contributions to public education and science-based policymaking about the Ocean. Marine environments are critical to the future of humans. His Ph.D. research at the Scripps Institution of Oceanographywith Dr. George Somero involved osmotic adaptations of elasmobranchs (sharks, skates and rays) and temperature and pH effects on marine fishes from polar regions to the tropics (well before we knew about ocean warming and acidification). The mission of the Master of Science (M.S.) His current work focuses on identifying cetacean critical habitat and establishing effective MPAs in national waters and on the high seas of the world ocean. An avid scuba diver since 1981, he dives as often as possible and is certified with NASDS/PADI as an Advanced Open Water diver with additional experience/training in Enriched Air (Nitrox), Wrecks, Night Diving, Rescue and Deep Diving. In 1997, he developed the first website on deep-sea biology for the general public, a site which continues to be popular. Because he is the first to record observations on marine life, Aristotle is often referred to as the father of marine biology. MarineBio Moderator, Singapore, Planet Ocean. Fiona Durnford As such these may change to reflect changes in scientific understanding. Martin is currently a commissioning life sciences editor for the Cambridge University Press (the oldest printing and publishing house in the world, since 1584).
