Marine debris is a continuous concern in the Southern Ocean.

Chemical oceanography, or marine (or ocean) chemistry, is the study of the chemistry of the ocean and its chemical interaction with the atmosphere.

Expressing its concern over the projected adverse effects of anthropogenic and natural climate change and ocean acidification on the marine environment and marine biodiversity,

(d) Request further studies and consideration of the impacts of ocean noise on marine living resources

(b) Capacity building, regional cooperation and coordination, and integrated ocean management, as important cross cutting issues to address ocean affairs, such as marine science and the transfer of technology, sustainable fisheries, the degradation of the marine environment and the safety of navigation

Marine scientific research can lead to a better understanding and utilization of the ocean and its resources in almost all aspects, including fisheries, marine pollution and coastal zone management.

Bottom trawlers drag heavy nets over the ocean bottom, destroying magnificent, unexplored, and endangered marine species in the process.

Trawl nets can also be modified, such as changing mesh size, to help with marine research of ocean bottoms.

Insurance companies estimate that a total of 50 million has been awarded for repairs from damage incurred by marine litter.

Coccolithophores are some of the most abundant marine phytoplankton, especially in the open ocean and are extremely abundant as microfossils.

The chapter on marine culture assesses mariculture methods (marine net pen rearing, ocean ranching, extractive aquaculture and intensive shrimp farming) for their environmental consequences, and suggests best practices to guide policy making.

Industrial longline fishing not only threatens marine wildlife but human societies that rely on the ocean for their own well being.

New York Bay is the collective term for the marine areas surrounding the entrance of the Hudson River into the Atlantic Ocean.

The tiny marine cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus was discovered in 1986 and accounts for more than half of the photosynthesis of the open ocean.

One is if 80 to 90 percent of what we're finding in the ocean of the marine debris that we're finding in the ocean is plastic, then why don't we call it what it is.

In our view, it is essential that the international community engage in discussions on marine biodiversity and marine scientific research, in accordance with the Convention, in order to better understand and manage ocean resources and activities.

China has also set up an integrated marine observation and monitoring system comprising stations for ocean observation, voluntary observation vessels, a nationwide network for ocean tide testing, seashore ice monitoring radar and China Haijian airplanes for observation.

PIPA constitutes 11.34 of Kiribati s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and with a size of it is the largest marine protected area (MPA) in the Pacific Ocean.

Activities include insurance and annuities, life insurance, retirement insurance, health insurance, and property casualty insurance.

Marine environment, marine resources, marine biodiversity and the protection of vulnerable marine ecosystems

Tuna are ocean athletes fast, far ranging predators whose habits we're just beginning to understand. Marine biologist Barbara Block fits tuna with tracking tags that record unprecedented amounts of data about these gorgeous, threatened fish and the ocean habitats they move through.

At its initial meeting, in January 2005, the United Nations Ocean and Coastal Areas network, the general mechanism for inter agency cooperation in ocean affairs, established four task forces dealing with, among other things, the tsunami disaster and marine biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction.

Although it is not a sanctuary, the ocean area is part of a system of 13 National Marine Sanctuaries administered by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

For example, dolphins and whales are completely dependent on the marine environment for all stages of their life, whereas seals feed in the ocean, but breed on land.

Marine environment, marine resources and the protection of vulnerable marine ecosystems

It would only cost 16 billion to set up 20 percent of the ocean as marine protected areas that actually give new living choices to the fishermen as well.

That the place where, during an earthquake in 1954, this marine terrace was lifted up out of the ocean very quickly, and it was lifted up about six to seven meters.

XI. Marine environment, marine resources and sustainable development

We would emphasize the need to ensure effective coordination and cooperation in the process of integrated ocean management so as to promote sustainable fisheries, enhance maritime safety and protect the marine environment from pollution.

Special emphasis has been given in the Secretary General's report to the importance of marine scientific research, which was brought into painful and sharp relief by the Indian Ocean tsunami of December last year.

In 1931, she produced California's first community based marine protected area, right next to the biggest polluting cannery, because Julia knew that when the canneries eventually were gone, the ocean needed a place to grow from, that the ocean needed a place to spark a seed, and she wanted to provide that seed.

Indeed, there is no market for other kinds of recession related insurance provided by the government, such as unemployment insurance, old age insurance, or disability insurance.
