In that time I worked diligently to develop a Marine and Aquatic Science hub at the journal.

Appalled is the best word I can think of to describe my reaction. I am no whale hugger (Give me invertebrates or give me death!) but of course those big charismatic megafauna are worthy of . . . → Read More: Sea Shepard: Only Making Matters Worse

River rock = settlement substrate. Kelp forest = urchin food. Beaches = spawning grounds for tuna food. Mangroves = seafood … food. Bumper stickers in the Carolinas say it best – “no wetlands, no seafood.” . . . → Read More: Making that deep-sea connection to mangroves

She was “awestruck by their beauty,” studied the rays, and then gradually noticed subtle differences between them. Species can be cryptic; hard . . . → Read More: Scientist falls in love with manta rays, finds new species

The Telegraph UK calls one newly revealed oceanographic mechanism a “freak” ocean wave because it travels underwater, with little or no surface expression. This was such a good spin I had to promote this to main title. . . . → Read More: Freak ocean wave across the Pacific
