  • The Weed That Feeds the North Atlantic
    DRIFTING PLANTS KNOWN AS SARGASSUM SUPPORT A COMPLEX AND AMAZING VARIETY OF MARINE LIFE. The Weed That Feeds the North Atlantic BY JAMES PROSEK PHOTOGRAPHS BY DAVID DOUBILET AND DAVID LIITTSCHWAGER 129 Hatchling sea turtles, like this juvenile log- gerhead, make their way from the sandy beaches where they were born toward mats of sargassum weed, finding food and refuge from predators during their first years of life. PREVIOUS PHOTO A clump of sargassum weed the size of a soccer ball drifts near Bermuda in the slow swirl of the Sargasso Sea, part of the North Atlantic gyre. A weed mass this small may shelter thousands of organisms, from larval fish to seahorses. DAVID DOUBILET (BOTH) 130 NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC THE WEED THAT FEEDS THE NORTH ATLANTIC 131 ‘There’s nothing like it in any other ocean,’ says marine biologist Brian Lapointe. ‘There’s nowhere else on our blue planet that supports such diversity in the middle of the ocean—and it’s because of the weed.’ LAPOINTE IS TALKING about a floating seaweed known as sargassum in a region of the Atlantic called the Sargasso Sea. The boundaries of this sea are vague, defined not by landmasses but by five major currents that swirl in a clockwise embrace around Bermuda. Far from any main- land, its waters are nutrient poor and therefore exceptionally clear and stunningly blue. The Sargasso Sea, part of the vast whirlpool known as the North Atlantic gyre, often has been described as an oceanic desert—and it would appear to be, if it weren’t for the floating mats of sargassum.

  • UST-SEPTE MBER 1984 Editor's Note: One Hundred and Fifty Years Is a Pretty Good While to Be Around
    UST-SEPTE MBER 1984 Editor's Note: One hundred and fifty years is a pretty good while to be around. So it's with some modest sense of pride that we include the Institute's 150th Annual Report in this issue. As the Director's message in the report indicates, the Institute's ability to survive and thrive over the years has been due in great measure to its capability to respond to the changing needs of seafarers; and to anticipate and adapt to change, itself. Even at this writing, plans are underway to relocate the Manhattan headquarters to another facility in Lower Manhattan. One that will be better suited to the sea­ farers' needs of today and tomorrow. But more about that in the next issue. Other articles in this issue attempt to keep you up-to-date on some of our various programs while also keeping in touch with our historical precedents of service. The poetry selected seemed appropriate to the season. As always, we welcome your comments.

    Fabien Cousteau ends mission at undersea lab (Update) 2 July 2014 The crew dove June 1 to Aquarius to study climate change and pollution on a nearby coral reef. Cousteau is scheduled to talk with reporters Wednesday afternoon. Five things to know about Cousteau's undersea mission Fabien Cousteau comes from a famous family of filmmakers, advocates and ocean explorers, and now he's added to their legacy of sea stories a 31-day expedition at an underwater laboratory in the Florida Keys. Here are five things to know about Cousteau's "Mission 31," which ended Wednesday.

After 31 days undersea, Cousteau stepped off a boat wearing flip-flops and a beach towel wrapped around his waist, saying he was torn about leaving his underwater home, but he missed his family and friends. The French oceanographer and his team of filmmakers and scientists started decompression Tuesday afternoon inside Aquarius Reef Base, 63 feet (19 meters) below the ocean's surface. Because they've spent so much time underwater, Cousteau and his "Mission 31" crew needed to undergo roughly 16 hours of decompression inside the school bus-sized lab so that they could return to the surface without suffering the bends.

Ocean legend Valerie Taylor separates truth from tall tales. I’M OFTEN REFERRED TO as a scientist. I’m not. I write from 65 years of experience. The oceans have been very good to my husband Ron and me. They’ve given us a life of excitement and adventure. The marine world is my teacher, my workplace, and my love, yet Ron and I have but dabbled in what it offers–unknown depths and their mysterious creatures, covering 72 per cent of our planet’s surface. Ron and I learnt very early that footage of sharks would sell more readily than that of any other marine animal. In the 1950s Movietone News (an international cinema-shown newsreel covering the years 1929–79) bought Ron’s 16 mm footage, blew it up to 35 mm and showed it in theatres around the world. Then came television (in 1956 in Australia) and the public’s lust for any images of sharks had us searching offshore waters for these “dangerous” predators. For us, filming sharks in their natural environment became a way of life. Much of my first-hand knowledge was acquired in the 1980s when using the mesh suit. There’s no easy way to describe sharks. There are hundreds of species, all with different characteristics, but few of them are potentially dangerous to humans. The most threatening species cruising our coastline is the white shark.
