The disheartening amount of trash afl oat in the sea, littering beaches, and piling up on the sea fl oor affects the health of Earth’s life support system, the ocean, and all the living things in it. Marine debris is more than a blemish on Nature, it is a potential threat to our food supply, to tourism and economic activity, to marine wildlife and ecosystems, and to our personal health. It even relates to the impacts of climate change. But there’s good news: Marine debris is a problem we can readily solve. 01 INTRODUCTION t’s time we realize that all of us — what they found.

It also absorbs much of the air and water pollution tourists, and choked ocean ecosystems. generated by a world population approaching seven billion. But our ocean is sick, and our actions have made it so. To keep the circle of life intact and healthy, we must act now. We must recognize that the ocean is inextricably connected This special report highlights the ways in which trash impacts to us; when we allow trash to get into the ocean, we directly ocean health, and offers solutions based on that information affect its health.

Ross] Ross Seal, with pup–Ommatophoca rossii [J. Libke] Australian Sea-lion–Neophoca cinerea [G. Ross] Weddell Seal–Leptonychotes weddellii [P. Shaughnessy] New Zealand Fur-seal–Arctocephalus forsteri [G. Ross] Crab-eater Seal–Lobodon carcinophagus [P. Shaughnessy] 56. OTARIIDAE AND PHOCIDAE DEFINITION AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION Pinnipeds are aquatic carnivores. They differ from other mammals in their streamlined shape, reduction of pinnae and adaptation of both fore and hind feet to form flippers. In the skull, the orbits are enlarged, the lacrimal bones are absent or indistinct and there are never more than three upper and two lower incisors. The cheek teeth are nearly homodont and some conditions of the ear that are very distinctive (Repenning 1972). Both superfamilies of pinnipeds, Phocoidea and Otarioidea, are represented in Australian waters by a number of species (Table 56.1). The various superfamilies and families may be distinguished by important and/or easily observed characters (Table 56.2). King (1983b) provided more detailed lists and references. These and other differences between the above two groups are not regarded as being of great significance, especially as an undoubted fur seal (Australian Fur-seal Arctocephalus pusillus) is as big as some of the sea lions and has some characters of the skull, teeth and behaviour which are rather more like sea lions (Repenning, Peterson & Hubbs 1971; Warneke & Shaughnessy 1985). The Phocoidea includes the single Family Phocidae – the ‘true seals’, distinguished from the Otariidae by the absence of a pinna and by the position of the hind flippers (Fig.

    Supplemental Informational Report 5 June 2021 PACIFIC FISHERY MANAGEMENT COUNCIL SPONSORS A SUCCESSFUL SABLEFISH MANAGEMENT STRATEGY EVALUATION WORKSHOP The Pacific Fishery Management Council, in collaboration with the National Marine Fisheries Service Alaska and Northwest Fisheries Science Centers, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, the University of Washington, and the North Pacific Fishery Management Council, convened a workshop to solicit stakeholders’ recommendations on the focus of a management strategy evaluation (MSE) for Northeast Pacific Sablefish. The Sablefish MSE Workshop occurred on April 27 and 28 via webinar. There were 59 attendees to the workshop and the workshop report is available at pacificsablefishscience.org and is also appended to this notice. Presentations from agency and academic researchers serving on the Pacific Sablefish Transboundary Assessment Team (PSTAT) briefed attendees on the development of an operating model to better understand the dynamics of sablefish across its range. Participants in the workshop were educated on MSE approaches and provided their recommendations on management objectives, performance metrics, and management strategies for achieving desired outcomes. The PSTAT will consider this stakeholder advice as the MSE is refined. Participants opined the workshop was useful and encouraged further stakeholder engagement in future workshops. 1 Transboundary Sablefish Management Strategy Evaluation (MSE) Workshop Report Report compiled by Maia

  • FY19 NOAA Funding Topline Letter Download
    Dear Senators and Representatives, With the release of "An American Budget" on February 12, 2018, the Trump Administration again proposed eliminating or slashing vital National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) grants and programs. The Fiscal Year 2019 (FY19) budget proposal would slash over $1 billion from NOAA, harming our nation's ocean and coastal economy and environment. The undersigned include groups and individuals that support NOAA’s ocean, coastal, and fisheries programs. We write to express our extreme dismay at the FY19 NOAA budget proposal and to ask that you ensure that no such budget becomes a reality for our nation’s premier ocean agency. We urge you to maintain funding for NOAA at or above current levels. At the same time, you and your colleagues in Congress are working to finalize the FY18 budget for NOAA. We applaud your work in appropriating $400 million in funding to NOAA for hurricane recovery efforts in the wake of the 2017 hurricane season. While you recognized the important role NOAA plays for coastal communities in disaster funding, we hope you will continue to recognize the role NOAA plays year-round, across the country, for communities and economies that depend on our oceans and coasts. We urge you to ensure that the final FY18 budget for NOAA maintains at least current funding levels, and makes additional investments in our oceans and coastal communities where possible. NOAA’s mission, to understand, protect, restore, and manage our ocean, coasts, and Great Lakes, is vitally important to sustain these resources and our economy. The U.S.

Introduction MPAs, Other Area-Based Measures, and Until recently, the global fight against climate change has largely overlooked the ocean-climate nexus. There is now a Integrated Ocean Management growing movement to correct this. Ocean and climate champions—including nations, non-federal governments, and An MPA is defined as “a clearly defined geographical nongovernmental organizations—are creating ocean-climate space, recognized, dedicated and managed, through legal leadership coalitions, working to elevate ocean issues in or other effective means, to achieve the long-term international climate negotiations, and incorporating ocean conservation of nature with associated ecosystem issues into their own climate goals.

  • Ocean-Based Climate Solutions in Nationally Determined Contributions
    Ocean-Based Climate Solutions in Nationally Determined Contributions April 2021 Update Author: Olivia Lopez © Adobe Stock ational climate goals under the Paris Agreement (Nationally Determined Contributions, or NDCs) are currently insufficient to address the climate crisis. Yet the promise of the Agreement is that it created not only an initial set of N commitments but also a “ratchet” cycle, in which countries submit NDCs every five years. Until recently, the international climate effort and the ocean conservation effort have been largely siloed. Although a majority of countries referenced the ocean in their first round of NDCs, only a minority discussed ocean actions as climate solutions. Fewer than 20 percent of countries with coastal blue carbon ecosystems, for example, discussed their role as carbon sinks.1,2,3 There is increasing recognition of the linkages between the ocean and climate change. As Parties to the Paris Agreement communicate their second round of national climate goals, this policy brief tracks the inclusion of concrete, ocean-based mitigation and adaptation actions. It sorts commitments first by ocean-based solution and then by country. Updates to this brief will post regularly, as countries submit further NDCs. As of this update, which analyzes 40 submissions from coastal countries, 37 include at least one ocean element. Contents Section titles link to relevant sections. This update analyzes the 2020/2021 NDC submissions from: Angola, Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Brunei Darussalam, Cabo Verde, Cambodia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, European Union, Fiji, Iceland, Jamaica, Japan, Kenya, Lebanon, Maldives, Marshall Islands, Mexico, Monaco, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Republic of Korea, Russia, Senegal, Singapore, St.

Prior to diving, phocid (true) seals generally exhale, a behaviour thought to assist with prevention of decompression sickness. Otariid seals (fur seals and sea lions) have a greater reliance on their lung oxygen stores, and inhale prior to diving.
