Voyage to the Pacific Ocean`s garbage patch: Tangoing with a ghost net while finding trash (and shallow-water fish) in unexpected places Editor's Note: Scuba instructor and underwater videographer Drew Wheeler is traveling on board the Algalita Marine Research Foundation's 50-foot (15.2-meter) Ocean Research Vessel, Alguita, on a two-month voyage to sample and study portions of a 10-million-square-mile (25.9-million-square-kilometer) oval known as the North Subtropical Gyre (aka "Pacific garbage patch"). Wheeler and the rest of the Alguita crew left Long Beach, Calif., on June 10 with a plan to cross the International Date Line and investigate regions of reported high plastic concentrations, northwest of the Hawaiian Islands. This is his fourth blog post for Scientific American.July 2, 2009 [More] Scientific AmericanMany Antarctic Species Ill Prepared To Cope With Warmer Ocean Researchers subjected species found in Antarctic waters to increasing levels of water temperature to learn how well they would cope with a warmer ocean. The study shows that several of these species are already living really close to their upper temperature range, and that further increases could easily provoke serious ecological imbalances in this region. Science dailyReefs could perish by end of century, experts warn LONDON (Reuters) - Increasingly acidic oceans and warming water temperatures due to carbon dioxide emissions could kill off the world's ocean reefs by the end of this century, scientists warned on Monday. ReutersResearchers find possible environmental causes for Alzheimer`s, diabetes [NEWS] Call for reducing nitrate levels in fertilizer and water, detoxifying food and water Providence, RI – A new study by researchers at Rhode Island Hospital have found a substantial link between increased levels of nitrates in our environment and food with increased deaths from diseases, including Alzheimer's, diabetes mellitus and Parkinson's.

In practice, it works; in product, it soars. Yet because scientific product depends on practice, which in turn depends on theory, it is vital that scientists understand how and why science fails, Andrew Baker writes. Science AlertSurface Power Signs NZ Distribution Deal Surface Power has signed a US $30 million distribution agreement in New Zealand. Under the terms of the five-year deal, New Zealand Solar Distribution will distribute Surface Power's range of solar hot water, heating and cooling systems. Surface Power, meanwhile, has announced it will establish a national distribution and training academy in Tauranga, New Zealand, resulting in the creation of 12 new jobs over the next year. Renewable Energy WorldEnerWorks Introduces Direct Solar Water Heating Appliances EnerWorks will showcase a number of new products at the upcoming Intersolar North America show in San Francisco, California. Among these is the new line of Focus Solar Water Heating Appliances. The Focus line includes residential and commercial water-based appliances that offer a direct and efficient way to heat water in climates where there is no risk of freezing. Rather than a freeze-protected fluid, potable water runs through the roof- or rack-mounted collectors, directly absorbing heat from the sun. Renewable Energy World1 2 |
