  • This Keyword List Contains Indian Ocean Place Names of Coral Reefs, Islands, Bays and Other Geographic Features in a Hierarchical Structure
    CoRIS Place Keyword Thesaurus by Ocean - 8/9/2016 Indian Ocean This keyword list contains Indian Ocean place names of coral reefs, islands, bays and other geographic features in a hierarchical structure. For example, the first name on the list - Bird Islet - is part of the Addu Atoll, which is in the Indian Ocean. The leading label - OCEAN BASIN - indicates this list is organized according to ocean, sea, and geographic names rather than country place names. The list is sorted alphabetically. The same names are available from “Place Keywords by Country/Territory - Indian Ocean” but sorted by country and territory name. Each place name is followed by a unique identifier enclosed in parentheses. The identifier is made up of the latitude and longitude in whole degrees of the place location, followed by a four digit number. The number is used to uniquely identify multiple places that are located at the same latitude and longitude. For example, the first place name “Bird Islet” has a unique identifier of “00S073E0013”. From that we see that Bird Islet is located at 00 degrees south (S) and 073 degrees east (E). It is place number 0013 at that latitude and longitude. (Note: some long lines wrapped, placing the unique identifier on the following line.) This is a reformatted version of a list that was obtained from ReefBase.

  • Field Identification Guide to the Sharks and Rays of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden
    FAO SPECIES IDENTIFICATION GUIDE FOR FISHERY PURPOSES ISSN 1020-6868 FIELD IDENTIFICATION GUIDE TO THE SHARKS AND RAYS OF THE RED SEA AND GULF OF ADEN PERSGA FAO SPECIES IDENTIFICATION GUIDE FOR FISHERY PURPOSES FIELD IDENTIFICATION GUIDE TO THE SHARKS AND RAYS OF THE RED SEA AND GULF OF ADEN by Ramón Bonfil Marine Program Wildlife Conservation Society Bronx, New York, USA and Mohamed Abdallah Strategic Action Program Regional Organization for the Conservation of the Environment of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden Jeddah, Saudi Arabia FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS Rome, 2004 iii PREPARATION OF THIS DOCUMENT This document was prepared under the coordination of the Species Identification and Data Programme of the Marine Resources Service, Fishery Resources and Environment Division, Fisheries Department, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). This field guide is largely based on material prepared for training courses on elasmobranch identification delivered in the region by the first author, and promoted by the Regional Organization for the Conservation of the Environment of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden (PERSGA), as an activity of PERSGA’s Strategic Action Programme (SAP) towards capacity building and technical assistance in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden region. Printing was supported by Japanese Government funds. The increasing recognition of the significance of sharks and batoid fishes as ecosystem health indicators, as well as their particular importance in exploited ecosystems in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, have been key considerations to promote the preparation of this Field Guide. Furthermore, in recent years the reported catches of elasmobranchs in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden showed a marked increase.

  • Directional Storm Surge in Enclosed Seas: the Red Sea, the Adriatic, and Venice
    J. Mar. Sci. Eng. 2015, 3, 356-367; doi:10.3390/jmse3020356 OPEN ACCESS Journal of Marine Science and Engineering ISSN 2077-1312 www.mdpi.com/journal/jmse Article Directional Storm Surge in Enclosed Seas: The Red Sea, the Adriatic, and Venice Carl Drews Atmospheric Chemistry Observations & Modeling, National Center for Atmospheric Research, P.O. Box 3000, Boulder, CO 80307, USA; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-303-497-1429; Fax: +1-303-497-1400 Academic Editor: Rick Luettich Received: 30 March 2015 / Accepted: 25 May 2015 / Published: 29 May 2015 Abstract: Storm surge is dependent on wind direction, with maximum surge heights occurring when strong winds blow onshore. It is less obvious what happens when a port city is situated at the end of a long narrow gulf, like Venice at the northwestern end of the Adriatic Sea. Does the narrow marine approach to the port city limit the dangerous wind direction to a span of only a few degrees? This modeling study shows that the response in surge height to wind direction is a sinusoidal curve for port cities at the end of a long inlet, as well as for cities exposed along a straight coastline. Surge height depends on the cosine of the angle between the wind direction and the major axis of the narrow gulf. There is no special protection from storm surge afforded by a narrow ocean-going approach to a port city. Keywords: storm surge; Red Sea; Adriatic Sea; Venice; COAWST; ROMS; wind direction; wind setdown 1. Introduction Wind-driven storm surge can cause great damage and loss of life in coastal regions.

  • The Coral Reefs of Eilat – Past, Present and Future: Three Decades of Coral Community Structure Studies
    The Coral Reefs of Eilat – 1 Past, Present and Future: Three Decades of Coral Community Structure Studies Yossi Loya 1.1 Introduction Here, I shall present a brief review of ca. 35 years of our studies on changes in the coral species diversity and community structure at Eilat, Red Sea, at several scales in space and time. In the following, I shall: (1) summarize the geograph- ical setting and the geological,physical and biological characteristics of the Gulf of Eilat/Aqaba, then point out the uniqueness of the coral reefs of Eilat, which are situated at the most northerly boundary of coral reef distribution,yet exhibit extraordinarily high within-habitat coral species diversity; (2) present the changes that took place in coral species diversity and community structure on the reef flats in the northern Gulf of Aqaba/Eilat (during the 1969–1980), due to natural disturbances (extreme midday low tides) and man-made perturbations (chronic oil spills); (3) discuss possible mechanisms that generate and maintain the high within-habitat coral diversity typifying pristine reefs in the Gulf of Eilat/Aqaba;(4)discusstheoppositemechanismsthatcausedadramaticde- crease in coral abundance and living cover at the Eilat Coral Nature Reserve (ECNR) during 1986–2000.I will also point out two major anthropogenic distur- bances: first, eutrophication caused by Eilat’s sewage discharge to the sea until 1995; and second, further eutrophication originating from intensive net pen mariculture off the northern coast of Eilat,which exponentially expanded activ- ity from 1994–1995 to present times.The grave implications for the coral reefs of Eilat caused by this chronic eutrophication will be presented.

  • Rethinking the Six Day War: an Analysis of Counterfactual Explanations Limor Bordoley
    Limor Bordoley Rethinking the Six Day War: An Analysis of Counterfactual Explanations Limor Bordoley Abstract The Six Day War of June 1967 transformed the political and physical landscape of the Middle East. The war established Israel as a major regional power in the region, while the Israeli territorial acquisitions resulting from the war have permanently marred Israel’s relationship with its Arab neighbors. The May crisis that preceded the war quickly spiraled out of control, leading many to believe that the war was unavoidable. In this paper, I construct three counterfactuals that consider how May and June 1967 might have unfolded differently if a particular event or person in the May crisis had been different. Ultimately, the counterfactuals show that war could have been avoided in three different ways, demonstrating that the Six Day War was certainly avoidable. In the latter half of the paper, I construct a framework to compare the effectiveness of multiple counterfactual. Thus, the objective of this paper is twofold: first, to determine whether war was unavoidable given the political climate and set of relations present in May and June 1967 and second, to create a framework with which one can compare the relative persuasiveness of multiple counterfactuals. Introduction The Six Day War of June 1967 transformed the political and physical landscape of the Middle East. The war established Israel as a major regional power, expanding its territorial boundaries and affirming its military supremacy in the region. The Israeli territorial acquisitions resulting from the war have been a major source of contention in peace talks with the Palestinians, and has permanently marred Israel’s relationship with its Arab neighbors.

NOTES AND COMMENTS Legal Status of the Gulf of Aqaba and the Strait of Tiran: From Customary International Law to the 1979 Egyptian-Israeli Peace Treaty 1. INTRODUCTION The juridical status of the Gulf of Aqaba (the Gulf) and the Strait of Tiran (the Strait) has been a subject of heated controversy between the Arab nations and Israel since the establishment of Israel as a state in 1948. 1 The only means by which ships may reach the Israeli port ofElath, located on the northern tip of the Gulf, is through the Gulf. Therefore, Israel needs navigational rights through the Gulf and the Strait for access to its port as well as to the Red Sea.

STATUS OF CORAL REEFS IN THE RED SEA-GULF OF ADEN MOSHIRA HASSAN, MOHAMMED M. A. KOTB AND ABDULMOHSIN A. AL-SOFYANI ABSTRACT The status of coral reefs bordering the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden is generally good, with live hard coral cover averaging 20-50%. There are predominantly fringing reefs bordering the coasts of Djibouti, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Yemen. Atolls and pinnacle reefs occur mainly in the Central and Southern Red Sea. However, technical reports, personal observations and comparative data show recent decreases in live coral cover. Fish populations are also declining and there have been several small outbreaks of the crown- of-thorns starfish (COTS), some local bleaching events and an increase in bioeroding organisms such as the urchin Diadema setosum and the coral eating gastropods Drupella and Coralliophila. Threats to coral reefs differ within the region, and are continuously increasing with the increasing rate of coastal development. The major threats are land filling, dredging, sedimentation, sewage discharge and effluents from desalination plants. In major tourism areas, there is physical damage by tourists and boat anchors. Fishing pressure is constantly increasing throughout the region to satisfy demands of growing and more affluent populations.
