The Sea Turtle Conservancy was founded in 1959 in Gainesville, Florida in response to calls from Dr. Archie Carr to bring awareness to threats facing sea turtles. Dr. Carr was a renowned taxonomist, biologist and conservationist. For over 60 years, the Conservancy has worked to raise awareness of and protect sea turtles around the world, making it the oldest sea turtle conservation organization. It provides information on sea turtle-friendly vacation spots and tracks sea turtle migrations online. Sea turtles have existed for over 100 million years and play an important role in the ocean ecosystem by eating sea grass and providing habitat for other species.

Destruction of the everglades
The Everglades ecosystem in Florida has been significantly damaged since the early 1900s through drainage projects, pollution, and introduction of non-native species. Canals and dams were built to drain the Everglades for agriculture and development, interrupting the natural water flow and causing drought, fires, and saltwater intrusion. Nutrient pollution from agricultural runoff supports invasive plants and algae. Non-native animal species like pythons and frogs have been released and now threaten native species. Restoring proper water flows and holding polluters accountable is needed to save the fragile Everglades environment.
Yunque vs. Guanica
The document summarizes what was learned from trips to El Yunque and Guanica State Forest in Puerto Rico. [1] El Yunque has a very humid climate and taller trees, while Guanica has a very dry climate and smaller trees. [2] Both forests have a variety of plant and animal communities that have adapted to their climate extremes. [3] Many species found in these forests are endangered, including the Puerto Rican parrot, due to threats from invasive species and human activities like hunting and habitat destruction.

The Galapagos Islands are a remote archipelago located in the Pacific Ocean west of Ecuador. The islands are home to many unique species found nowhere else, including giant tortoises, marine iguanas, and the Galapagos penguin. While the islands have strict protections as a national park, human activities like tourism, fishing, and the effects of climate events like El Niño continue to endanger the fragile ecosystem. Conservation efforts aim to preserve the islands' biodiversity for future generations.
(FINAL) ROUGH DRAFT FOR SENIOR RESEARCH Jennifer Edit 4-14-15
This document is a senior research paper that analyzes temporal and spatial trends in sea turtle strandings and nesting in Volusia County, Florida from 1989-2012. It finds that sea turtle strandings in Volusia County have increased over time and are correlated with increases in both the county and state human populations. Strandings are dominated by loggerhead and green sea turtles. Despite rising strandings, nesting numbers have also increased, likely due to the county's aggressive nest protection programs. The analysis aims to better understand relationships between strandings, nesting, human activities, and environmental factors like temperature to inform sea turtle conservation efforts.

The periodicity, methods, and patterns of migration are explained for various fish species. The causes of migration and influencing factors are outlined. Finally, advantages of migration are presented such as accessing abundant food sources and enhancing offspring survival.
Presentation fish migration
The document discusses different types of fish migration. It defines migration as the regular, periodic movement of fish populations between breeding and feeding grounds. There are several types of fish migration including annual migration for reproduction, generational migration where parents migrate to release eggs and then die while young later migrate, and climatic, alimental, and osmoregulatory migrations. Examples of different migratory fish and the stages of eel migration are also provided. The document outlines latitudinal, anadromous, catadromous, and oceanodromous migrations, giving examples for each type.
Island biogeography
This document discusses island biogeography and provides examples of continental and oceanic islands. It describes how continental islands like Great Britain and Borneo have fauna more similar to nearby mainland areas due to past connections, while oceanic islands have fauna that arrived by air/water and is often endemic. It discusses species-area relationships and how larger islands support more species due to lower extinction rates. It summarizes Robert MacArthur and E.O. Wilson's equilibrium theory of island biogeography.
Migration in fishes
Catadromous migration: The movement of large number of individuals from fresh water to sea water, generally for spawning as happens in the case of eels.
Anadromous fishes live and feed in ocean waters but their spawning grounds lie in the tributaries of rivers.

Fish Migration
Fish migration occurs for various reasons such as finding new habitats, feeding, reproduction, and escaping predators. There are several types of fish migration defined by distance, direction, and purpose. Anadromous fish migrate from salt water to fresh water to spawn, like salmon, while catadromous fish do the opposite, migrating from fresh to salt water to spawn. Potamodromous fish migrate within fresh water systems. Oceanodromous fish migrate long distances within salt water environments. Physical, chemical, and biological factors influence fish migration patterns. Migration allows fish to access new food sources and breeding habitats but also carries risks.

Evolution
This document provides an overview of evolution including:
1) Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection, where organisms change over generations through heritable traits that provide an advantage.
2) Evidence that supported Darwin's ideas like fossils showing gradual changes and biogeography patterns.
3) The mechanisms of evolution including mutation, genetic drift, migration and natural selection acting on variation between individuals.
4) Examples of evolution through changes in species like whales becoming aquatic and Darwin's finches on the Galapagos.
Conservation Science
This document discusses the history and development of conservation science. It describes how extinction rates are high, with 50-150 species going extinct daily. Conservation science emerged in the late 19th century with early ecologists. In the mid-20th century, scientists like Aldo Leopold, Rachel Carson, and E.O. Wilson helped educate the public on environmental issues and shape the scientific design of wilderness reserves through their research and advocacy work. Their work influenced the growth of the environmental movement and establishment of organizations like the Society for Conservation Biology.

Some of the creatures discussed include the giant mosasaur, a large marine reptile that was one of the top predators in the late Cretaceous seas, the giant orthocone, a jet-propelled cephalopod mollusk that was the largest animal on Earth 460 million years ago, and Hesperornis, a flightless bird that used its teeth to catch fish rather than wings.
Darwin evolution ppt (yna fabros)
Charles Darwin developed his theory of evolution by natural selection based on observations and evidence he collected during his voyage on the HMS Beagle from 1831-1836. During the voyage, Darwin visited places like Argentina, Australia, and the Galapagos Islands. He noticed that similar ecosystems had very different species, and that fossils resembled living organisms. He was particularly interested in how tortoises and finches varied between the Galapagos Islands. After returning home, Darwin developed the theory that organisms slowly change over generations through natural selection of beneficial inherited traits, leading to descent with modification from common ancestors.

1. The document discusses Jean-Baptiste Lamarck and Charles Darwin's theories of evolution. Lamarck believed in inheritance of acquired traits, while Darwin proposed natural selection and survival of the fittest.
2. Darwin was influenced by Lyell, Malthus, and his observations on the Galapagos Islands. He noticed finches and tortoises had adapted to different environments on different islands.
3. The document provides evidence that supports evolution, including the fossil record, homologous structures, vestigial structures, and examples of artificial and convergent evolution.
THEORIES of Evolution.pptx
1. A flock of finches were blown out to sea during a storm and landed on an uninhabited island with abundant food and no predators.
2. The finches thrived on the island, but as their numbers increased, some were forced to fly to nearby islands to find new territory.
3. Over a long period of time, the finches on each island evolved slightly different traits based on the different food sources available, with some finches better adapted to the new foods on each island.
Life of bays supplement
This document provides background information to supplement a film called "Life of the Bays" about the habitats and ecosystems of Florida Bay, Biscayne Bay, and the Florida Keys. It describes the key habitats of coral reefs, sea grass communities, and mangrove forests. It explains how coral reefs are formed by coral polyps secreting calcium carbonate over many years. Sea grasses provide a nursery for fish and food for marine life. Mangroves stabilize the shoreline and create estuaries. These habitats are interdependent and sustain life in the bays.
The Evolutionary Crisis Of Marine Mammals
The document discusses the evolutionary crisis facing marine mammals. It notes that while adaptation has historically been a natural process, marine mammals are now being forced to adapt faster than ever before due to factors like climate change, overfishing, and pollution from human activity. For some species, these environmental changes are occurring faster than they can evolve or survive. The document provides background on the evolution of marine mammals and how they have adapted from land to sea over millions of years.
Evolutionary Theory in 21st Century
This document summarizes evidence for evolution from biology, paleontology, geology, and molecular biology. It provides examples of transitional fossils, homologous structures in different species, and molecular evidence like the universal genetic code that supports common descent. Vestigial structures and imperfect biological designs are explained as consequences of evolution rather than intelligent design.
02 Ch22 Evolution Darwin2007
The document summarizes Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. It describes how Darwin observed differences between related species on the Galapagos Islands, including variations in beak shapes among Darwin's finches that correlated with different food sources. This led Darwin to realize that species evolve over generations through natural selection of advantageous traits, with individuals better suited to their environment being more likely to survive and pass on their traits. The document also contrasts Darwin's theory with Lamarck's idea of the inheritance of acquired characteristics, stating that Darwin believed that inherited genes, not acquired traits, caused evolution through natural selection.

The document summarizes Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. It describes Darwin's voyage on the HMS Beagle where he observed patterns of diversity among species in places like the Galapagos Islands. This led him to propose that life evolves over time through natural selection, where traits beneficial for survival are passed on while others die out. The document also outlines evidence that shaped Darwin's thinking, such as fossils, biogeography, and homologous and vestigial structures between organisms.

adventures of coral reef
The document discusses the origin and evolution of life on Earth. It describes how early experiments in 1953 simulated lightning and the early atmosphere, producing amino acids. It also discusses how life may have begun in alkaline hydrothermal vents on the early ocean floor. Coral reefs formed after the last ice age as sea levels rose and flooded continental shelves, allowing reef ecosystems to develop.
environmentalism.ppt the roots of movement
The roots of modern environmentalism can be traced back to the conservation, preservation, ecology, and biodiversity movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Conservation aimed to sustainably manage natural resources for human use, while preservation sought to maintain untouched areas. The concept of a "tragedy of the commons" illustrated how open access to shared resources could lead to overexploitation. Early conservation efforts in the US protected forests and wildlife. John Muir and other activists helped establish national parks and wilderness areas. The science of ecology developed to study organism-environment relationships. Concern over declining biodiversity grew, exemplified by E.O. Wilson's work. Rachel Carson's Silent Spring book in 1962 was influential
Anemone hermitcrab pdf
This document summarizes observations of symbiotic relationships between three species - the hermit crab Dardanus fucosus, the anemone Calliactis tricolor, and the porcelain crab Porcellana sayana. The three species were observed cohabitating in shells in an aquarium over 36 days. It was found that the hermit crab actively transfers its anemone to new shells. The porcelain crab also actively moves with the hermit crab and anemone to new shells. All three species receive benefits from the relationships, including camouflage, protection, and access to food sources. While the species can live independently, their interactions provide advantages and are considered facultative mutualism and commens
The Northwestern Hawaiian Islands
The Northwestern Hawaiian Islands are a remote chain of small islands and atolls northwest of the main Hawaiian Islands. The region was designated as a national monument in 2006 to protect its unique ecology. It contains the largest protected marine area in the US and hosts many endemic and endangered species. Key facts about the islands include their volcanic formation over millions of years, cultural significance to native Hawaiians, and pristine coral reefs that are home to thousands of species, a quarter of which are found nowhere else.
Theory of evolution power point
1. Charles Darwin embarked on a 5-year voyage around the world aboard the HMS Beagle as a naturalist. During this trip, he made extensive observations of plants and animals and collected specimens.
2. A stop at the Galapagos Islands was particularly influential, where Darwin observed finches and tortoises that had adapted to their specific islands.
3. Upon returning home, Darwin began developing his theory of evolution by natural selection to explain the diversity of life and adaptations of organisms to their environments. He published On the Origin of Species in 1859.

Targeting Hsp90 and its pathogen Orthologs with Tethered Inhibitors as a Diagnostic and Therapeutic Strategy for cancer and infectious diseases with Dr. Timothy Haystead.Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark Universe
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.

Embracing Deep Variability For Reproducibility and Replicability
Abstract: Reproducibility (aka determinism in some cases) constitutes a fundamental aspect in various fields of computer science, such as floating-point computations in numerical analysis and simulation, concurrency models in parallelism, reproducible builds for third parties integration and packaging, and containerization for execution environments. These concepts, while pervasive across diverse concerns, often exhibit intricate inter-dependencies, making it challenging to achieve a comprehensive understanding. In this short and vision paper we delve into the application of software engineering techniques, specifically variability management, to systematically identify and explicit points of variability that may give rise to reproducibility issues (eg language, libraries, compiler, virtual machine, OS, environment variables, etc). The primary objectives are: i) gaining insights into the variability layers and their possible interactions, ii) capturing and documenting configurations for the sake of reproducibility, and iii) exploring diverse configurations to replicate, and hence validate and ensure the robustness of results. By adopting these methodologies, we aim to address the complexities associated with reproducibility and replicability in modern software systems and environments, facilitating a more comprehensive and nuanced perspective on these critical aspects.
