But in southern Iraq, in the waterway leading to the port of Umm Qasr and in the harbor of Bahrain, the more ancient and precise work of marine mammals is under way. Dolphins are using their natural sonar to detect mines in the water near Umm Qasr. And in Bahrain, sea lions are guarding boats and piers from potentially threatening swimmers...

But, beneath the surface is a different story. All around the world, our oceans are in crisis. Whale slaughter continues to put endangered species at risk and pollution from land-based sources is turning the oceans into a dumping ground. Throughout the seven seas, there are many industries committing crimes against nature, but no one is holding them accountable. Even the deep and remote areas that once served as refuges from fishing... [More] Full Details  | Visit  | Review  | Rate (0)  | 2009/08/19  | 99 visits Oceans at Risk: Wasted catch and the destruction of ocean life Top \ Marine Conservation Every year, the world's industrial fishing fleets accidentally catch an astounding quantity of marine life, injuring or killing thousands of marine mammals, sea turtles, sea birds and unwanted fish, etc. Full Details  | Visit  | Review  | Rate (0)  | 2009/08/16  | 776 visits Overview of the Conservation of Australian Marine Invertebrates Top \ Marine Conservation Australian Museum report for the Australian Government Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts This volume is the marine counterpart of Yen and Butcher's (1997) overview of the conservation of non-marine invertebrates.

Tributyltin oxide, also known as TBT, is applied to boats to prevent the accumulation of barnacles and other debris that slow vessels down while on the open water. Researchers at Yale University found the chemical prevents so-called outer hair cells... [More] Full Details  | Visit  | Review  | Rate (0)  | 2008/07/02  | 121 visits Total: 21  Displaying: 1 - 21  Pages: 1
