The Biology of Marine Mammals
Romero, A. 2009. The Biology of Marine Mammals. The Biology of Marine Mammals Aldemaro Romero, Ph.D. Arkansas State University Jonesboro, AR 2009 2 INTRODUCTION Dear students, 3 Chapter 1 Introduction to Marine Mammals 1.1. Overture Humans have always been fascinated with marine mammals. These creatures have been the basis of mythical tales since Antiquity. For centuries naturalists classified them as fish. Today they are symbols of the environmental movement as well as the source of heated controversies: whether we are dealing with the clubbing pub seals in the Arctic or whaling by industrialized nations, marine mammals continue to be a hot issue in science, politics, economics, and ethics. But if we want to better understand these issues, we need to learn more about marine mammal biology. The problem is that, despite increased research efforts, only in the last two decades we have made significant progress in learning about these creatures. And yet, that knowledge is largely limited to a handful of species because they are either relatively easy to observe in nature or because they can be studied in captivity. Still, because of television documentaries, ‘coffee-table’ books, displays in many aquaria around the world, and a growing whale and dolphin watching industry, people believe that they have a certain familiarity with many species of marine mammals (for more on the relationship between humans and marine mammals such as whales, see Ellis 1991, Forestell 2002). As late as 2002, a new species of beaked whale was being reported (Delbout et al. 2002), in 2003 a new species of baleen whale was described (Wada et al. -

The guide is divided into three sections representing classroom material, outreach activities, and professional resources. Each section is subdivided by resource type. Larger sections use categories to facilitate location of material by curriculum field; the typical arrangement of categories is General, Anthropology/Cultures, Civics, Economics, Geography, and History. Smaller sections are alphabetically arranged by the title of the resource, organization, or program. The first section covers "Classroom Instructional Resources," such as textbooks, trade books, multimedia resources, curriculum guides, journals, Web sites, dramatizations and model programs, games and simulations, and human resources. The second section covers "Outreach Activities," which typically involve experiences with learning sites or programs which are located or originate outside the school building. The third section covers "Professional Development and Planning Resources" for teachers. The index provides integrated access by subject and organization to all 845 entries. -
Looking for Risto
LOOKING FOR RISTO Tristan Hamel Master's Thesis Aalto University, School of Arts,Design and Architecture, Department of Art, Master Degree Programme in Environmental Art 2012 Abstract Along the summer 2012, Tristan Hamel went for a journey on the lakes of Eastern Finland on his self-made raft, looking for his Finnish alter ego Risto. The aim of this project is to question identification with the natural environment, and more particularly the condition of identification of a foreigner with Finnish nature. The central proposition of this Master's thesis is that a complete engagement with the environment is needed to challenge national strategies of identification. Understood both as a physical and psychological process, engagement makes it possible for one to initiate a one-to-one relationship with nature, based on a personal cultural set such as the universal myth of return to nature. The artwork at stake in this thesis builds upon the international tradition of environmental art but is more particularly influenced by the work of selected Finnish artists whose work is marked by a deep sense of involvement with the natural environment. In spite of these various influences, Looking for Risto intends to innovate mostly in terms of documentation, by taking advantage of recent developments in communication technologies. Art being considered as a process, the emphasis is put as much on the preparatory and retrospective phases of the project as on the production one. Each of them is assigned a different mode of confrontation with the audience. -
Lccjoins Provincial Energy Group
T Lethbridge Community College E Sliideiili^cMiiicctiiHi Vol: XXXV Issue: 9 Wednesday, Dec. 6, 2000 Santa brings smiles LCCJoins provincial energy group By Shawne Mohl Endeavour Staff Rising energy costs have forced LCC to join with other insti tutions across the province to form a consumer group. The Public Institutional Consumers of Alberta (PICA) was . formed in an attempt to control energy costs for its members when deregulation takes effect Jan. 1. Memebership in PICA is completely voluntary and includes colleges, universities, public schools and health authorities, including hospitals from throughout the province. The consumer group has a goal to provide its members with the means to secure electrical supply with predictable and bel ter than market rates. Sixteen Alberta power companies were invited lo tender for energy supply to the member institutions. 'The two companies that PICA chose were Epcor (Edmonton) and Em-on (Texas)," said Rick Buis, vice president of corportate services at LCC. Although Epcor was picked as the preferred supplier by other members of PICA, the Board of Govemors at LCC decided Nov. 28 to enter into a five-year purchase contract beginning Jan. 1, with Enmax, a Calgary-based energy provider. This decision came just before an announcement from Alberta Premier Ralph Klein to freeze the provincial Energy Utilities Board surtax On natural gas and electricity in an effort to give Albertans temporary relief from spiralling energy costs. ^gA*»- What's Inside College Nems Suicide season? p.3 Comments TliInk before you drink p.4 Features Hotnefront p.12 PHOTO BY MELISSA OLSON Entertainment Old Saint Nick and a hard-working elf take gift suggestions from an excited Christtnas parties and traditions p.19 group of childrien from the LCC daycare. -
