Representing SeaPerch were Susan Nelson, Executive Director, Chris Hansen, Technical Director, and Phil Kimball, Program Director, and this year we were joined by U.S. Navy P38 Reservist, CDR John Sicklick, along with two enthusiastic engineering students, Shanice Jones and Nancy Do, representing one of our newest partners, Embry-Riddle University. The SeaPerch booth included a large covered pool with two SeaPerches outfitted with underwater cameras and monitors for visitors to follow when challenged to pick up rings off the bottom. The large AUVSI water tank was also available on the show floor for demonstrations of the mini-SeaPerch, which in turn drove additional visitor traffic to the booth. On Wednesday afternoon the SeaPerch booth was visited by ONR’s Chief of Naval Research, RADM Matthew Klunder, who tested his skills by retrieving rings off the pool bottom. Thursday was even busier as it was Student Day, or RoboTour, which attracted middle, high and home school students as well as Boy and Girl Scout troops and 4H groups from the greater Las Vegas area. Students were observed coming back for more “sea time,” and both parents and chaperones were captivated by the depth and breadth of the program and as well as our newest brochure, “How to Start a SeaPerch Program in Your School.” Teacher Training in Ketchikan, Alaska As SeaPerch continues to explore new ways to educate students and train teachers, Susan Nelson made her way to Ketchikan, AK to observe a new potential program called SeaGlide. The SeaGlide summer camp was offered for the first time in the western United States and is a cooperative effort of the STEM AK program, the Naval Surface Warfare Center - Carderock Division, NAVSEA, and SeaPerch. The camp brought together 17 middle school students and five teachers from around the state for a one week, intensive workshop to build the autonomous underwater glider. Joining the group were three engineers and a STEM educator from Carderock headed by Toby Ratcliffe, Bob Vieth from STEM AK, and the Underwater Robotics Team from the MIT Edgerton Center, headed by Ed Moriarty. The teachers worked alongside students in learning about building underwater robots, including principles of marine architecture and design, concepts of buoyancy and center of gravity, and circuit design and programming. The week culminated in the successful launch of 22 SeaGlide submersibles in the local pool. U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski stopped by the pool-side event. The kids were ecstatic with their successful glides. As one excited young lady exclaimed, “This is the COOLEST thing I have ever done!” SeaPerch Part of Engineering Internship Program The Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training, and Instrumentation (PEO STRI) is the U.S. Army’s acquisition and contracting center of excellence for simulation, training and testing capabilities. SeaPerch was used as a platform to teach and then verify the design development and implementation process with high school students in their Engineering Internship. The link below is to the PEO STRI Engineering Internship Web site: http://www.handhgraphicsorlando.com/STEM/ Teacher Training at Dahlgren, VA Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) conducted a teacher training event on August 20th. Master trainer Toby Ratcliffe from Carderock led the training. Teachers from Orange, Westmoreland, Colonial Beach, and Richmond counties in VA were trained. Program Growth Susan Nelson held numerous meetings during the month to expand the SeaPerch program. A few highlights: Susan met with Robert Gibbs, Director, Management and Administration, of Naval Reactors (NAVSEA08) who wants to adopt SeaPerch program-wide over the next several years. Roll-out is planned in Pittsburgh and New York in year one, followed by Idaho and D.C., with eager mentors and great support from the leadership. Susan met with personnel form the Ocean Sciences Department at ONR to discuss possible collaboration ideas in the development of a history component of the SeaPerch curriculum. Susan met with Dr. Deborah Barnhart, CEO of the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL. The group is looking for ideas for their week-long camps for next summer, and they would like to make SeaPerch a part of those camps. Susan and Dr. Lori Richmond had several calls to work through final details of the new Resource and Activity Guide that will be coming out October 1st. More details to follow, but the guide is designed to be a resource for teachers and mentors to use to provide complete packaged information and resources for them to teach SeaPerch. Highlights from New Programs Navy JROTC Units A partnership is developing with the Navy Junior ROTC (NJROTC) program. NJROTC cadets across the country will begin using SeaPerch to “learn by doing” as they are taught naval architecture and marine and ocean engineering principles, basic science and engineering concepts, tool safety, team building, leadership development, and technical procedures, all while exploring exciting careers possibilities in naval architecture and naval, ocean, and marine engineering. The following NJROTC schools began programs or ordered kits in August: Flour Bluff High School, TX Foy H. Moody High School, TX Magnolia High School, TX Reseda Senior High, CA Rockport- Fulton High School, TX Sullivan North High School, TN Arizona SeaPerch will be a capstone project for students at Sunnyslope High School in Phoenix, concluding two years of physics, math and engineering design studies. In addition to the eight week curriculum provided by SeaPerch, students will also study weightlessness in space, maneuvering in space, energy use and conservation in space. California The Virginia Avenue Park Teen Center in Santa Monica focuses on providing opportunities for youth to gain life skills, contribute to their community, and enrich their lives educationally and culturally through creative arts, leadership, and mentor programs. SeaPerch will be used to launch the new Teen Tinkering Class to provide engineering enrichment to an after-school program that has previously focused on arts education. Students at the Family Life Center in Petaluma will meet after school weekly to build ROVs and learn from USCG mentors about real world uses of robots. A girls-only session is also planned to offer a new perspective on possible career paths for girls interested in STEM topics. Iridescent High School Engineering After School Programs in Los Angeles are designed to provide students with an opportunity to learn and explore engineering concepts and potential careers. Due to the great success of underwater robotics summer camps and demand from the community, they would like to continue running the SeaPerch program in an after school format. The program will be held two days per week for eight weeks and will engage students as they discuss electronics, autonomy, ocean dynamics, and research applications of ROVs. The program will be facilitated by Iridescent staff and USC engineering students who have taken “Engineers as Teachers”, a semester long course led by Iridescent at USC. The Science Club at Vista Del Lago High in Folsom has many different branches to help promote and nurture students’ interests in STEM in the school and community. The robotics branch of the Science Club was formed specifically to cater to the increasing opportunities and excitement that robotics and engineering brings to the students. Their plan is to incorporate SeaPerch underwater ROVs as a focused activity in this club. Colorado Mountain Ridge Middle School in Colorado Springs plans to offer SeaPerch to all grade levels as an after school program. A competition conducted by the Air Force Academy is slated for late October. Students will keep a journal on their SeaPerch build and will have an opportunity to evaluate their final project and reflect on their performance after the competition. Students participating in the free Science and Engineering After School Club at Dunstan Middle School will work in teams to construct SeaPerches and then race their ROVs against other students. The group will met once per week to learn about buoyancy and density

  • Influence of Spring River Flow on the Recruitment of Japanese Seaperch Lateolabrax Japonicus Into the Chikugo Estuary, Japan
    RECENT ADVANCES IN THE STUDY OF SCIENTIA MARINA 70S2 FISH EGGS AND LARVAE October 2006, 159-164, Barcelona (Spain) M.P. Olivar and J.J. Govoni (eds.) ISSN: 0214-8358 Influence of spring river flow on the recruitment of Japanese seaperch Lateolabrax japonicus into the Chikugo estuary, Japan JUN SHOJI 1 and MASARU TANAKA 2 1 Takehara Fisheries Research Station, Hiroshima University, Minato-machi 5-8-1, Takehara, Hiroshima 725-0024, Japan. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Laboratory of Estuarine Ecology, Centre for Education and Research of Field Science, Kyoto University, Sakyo, Kyoto 606-8502, Japan. SUMMARY: The estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM) zone is considered to serve as a predation refuge for fish during the early life stages due to the high turbidity and high prey concentration. River flow can be one of the important determinants for survival of early life stages of estuarine dependent fish because it affects both the physical and biological properties of the ETM. We tested the hypothesis that fluctuation of river flow explains the variability in recruitment of Japanese seaperch Lateolabrax japonicus around the ETM region of the Chikugo River estuary, upper Ariake Bay, Japan. Japanese seaperch recruitment showed a 43.3-fold fluctuation from 1990 to 2000 and was inversely correlated with the mean daily river flow of the Chikugo River in March. The recruitment was high and variable in years of low March river flow and was poor in years of high March river flow. We conclude that high river flow potentially decreases Japanese seaperch recruitment in the Chikugo River estuary by blocking the larval migration into the river and by increasing the probability of larval dispersion to the downriver/upper bay areas, where potential predators (jellyfish and Sagitta spp.) were more abundant, and prey (Sinocalanus sinensis) availability and turbidity were lower.

Fisheries Occasional Publications No. 80, September 2010. ISSN: 1447 - 2058 ISBN: 1 921258 90 X Information about this guide he intention of the North Coast Fish Identification Guide is to provide a simple, Teasy to use manual to assist commercial, recreational, charter and customary fishers to identify the most commonly caught marine finfish species in the North Coast Bioregion. This guide is not intended to be a comprehensive taxonomic fish ID guide for all species. It is anticipated that this guide will assist fishers in providing a more comprehensive species level description of their catch and hence assist scientists and managers in understanding any variation in the species composition of catches over both spatial and temporal scales. Fish taxonomy is a dynamic and evolving field. Advances in molecular analytical techniques are resolving many of the relationships and inter-relationships among species, genera and families of fishes. In this guide, we have used and adopted the latest taxonomic nomenclature. Any changes to fish taxonomy will be updated and revised in subsequent editions. The North Coast Bioregion extends from the Ashburton River near Onslow to the Northern Territory border. Within this region there is a diverse range of habitats from mangrove creeks, rivers, offshore islands, coral reef systems to continental shelf and slope waters.
