The 13 national marine sanctuaries and one marine national monument within the National Marine Sanctuary System represent areas of America’s ocean and Great Lakes environment that are of special national significance. Within their waters, giant humpback whales breed and calve their young, coral colonies flourish, and shipwrecks tell stories of our maritime history. Habitats include beautiful coral reefs, lush kelp forests, whale migrations corridors, spectacular deep-sea canyons, and underwater archaeological sites. These special places also provide homes to thousands of unique or endangered species and are important to America’s cultural heritage. Sites range in size from one square mile to almost 140,000 square miles and serve as natural classrooms, cherished recreational spots, and are home to valuable commercial industries. Because of considerable differences in settings, resources, and threats, each marine sanctuary has a tailored management plan. Conservation, education, research, monitoring and enforcement programs vary accordingly. The integration of these programs is fundamental to marine protected area management.

  • March 20-26, 1960 "Water
    IBENHSiWflNlfl <n j- National Wildlife Week, March 20-26, 1960 "Water... Cool, Cool, Water" "Water . cool, cool, water." This lament from a popular ballad symbolizes a need which is becoming more and more acute in the United States as our population continues to expand at an alarming rate. Arid parts of the west, which long have felt the pinch of low water supplies, are being joined by areas in the midwest, south and east in efforts to meet the growing shortages. Many types of industries require huge amounts of water—in the actual prep­ aration of products, for cooling systems and for the removal of waste materials. Municipalities use great amounts of water—for domestic services and waste re­ moval. Agriculture consumes still other significant amounts of water, especially for crop irrigation. Water generates power. It provides navigational highways for transportation. It offers recreation for millions of people. Water, in other words, is a vital resource. Many parts of the nation have reached the point where existing water sup­ plies are critical, with surface streams either in flood stage or dry during portions of the year. Underground supplies are rapidly depleted. And areas formerly with adequate supplies, are viewing the situation with alarm as demands in­ crease in proportion to mounting populations. What are answers to these questions? The National Wildlife Federation and its state affiliates, sponsors of National Wildlife Week being observed March 20-26, offer these possibilities: 1. Clean up existing water supplies in order that they may be used re­ peatedly for a variety of beneficial purposes.

    United Nations UNEP/GEF South China Sea Global Environment Environment Programme Project Facility UNEP/GEF/SCS/RWG-F.8/5 Date: 12th October 2006 Original: English Eighth Meeting of the Regional Working Group for the Fisheries Component of the UNEP/GEF Project: “Reversing Environmental Degradation Trends in the South China Sea and Gulf of Thailand” Bangka Belitung Province, Indonesia 1st - 4th November 2006 INFORMATION COLLATED BY THE FISHERIES AND HABITAT COMPONENTS OF THE SOUTH CHINA SEA PROJECT ON SITES IMPORTANT TO THE LIFE- CYCLES OF SIGNIFICANT FISH SPECIES UNEP/GEF/SCS/RWG-F.8/5 Page 1 IDENTIFICATION OF FISHERIES REFUGIA IN THE GULF OF THAILAND It was discussed at the Sixth Meeting of the Regional Scientific and Technical Committee (RSTC) in December 2006 that the Regional Working Group on Fisheries should take the following two-track approach to the identification of fisheries refugia: 1. Review known spawning areas for pelagic and invertebrate species, with the aim of evaluating these sites as candidate spawning refugia. 2. Evaluate each of the project’s habitat demonstration sites as potential juvenile/pre-recruit refugia for significant demersal species. Rationale for the Two-Track Approach to the Identification of Fisheries Refugia The two main life history events for fished species are reproduction and recruitment. It was noted by the RSTC that both of these events involve movement between areas, and some species, often pelagic fishes, migrate to particular spawning areas. It was also noted that many species also utilise specific coastal habitats such as coral reefs, seagrass, and mangroves as nursery areas. In terms of the effects of fishing, most populations of fished species are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of high levels of fishing effort in areas and at times where there are high abundances of (a) stock in spawning condition, (b) juveniles and pre-recruits, or (c) pre-recruits migrating to fishing grounds.

  • Woodlot Recreation
    Woodlot Management Home Study Course Module 9 Woodlot Recreation Preface Many woodlot owners enjoy outdoor recreation activities like hiking or snowmobiling on their property but are not purposefully managing for those activities. Others may tend to separate recreation and timber management even though they do recreational activities in 'areas managed for their timber values. Outdoor recreation can be improved by planning for it and can also be managed for along with the other uses of your land. This module will help you develop an outdoor recreation plan in keeping with your interests and woodlot potential. It contains basic, practical information if you use your woodlot for family recreation or if you allow occasional public use. If you expect a lot of use by groups or plan on starting an outdoor recreation business on your woodlot, you should refer to a companion study called the Woodlot Recreation Manual (1995). This manual by Glyn Bissex, a professor at Acadia University in the School of Recreation and Physical Education, provides more in-depth information on planning and marketing. This module is the ninth in a series of Woodlot Management Home Study Courses. Other modules in the series are # I Introduction to Silviculture, #2 Harvesting Systems, #3 Stand Spacing, #4 Wildlife and Forestry, #5 Stand Establishment, #6. Chain Saw Use and Safety, #7 Woodlot Ecology and #8 Wood Utilization and Technology. They are available free from the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Extension Services Division in Halifax, 424-5444; or Education and Publication Services in Truro, 893-5642.
