This document discusses how First Nations and Métis peoples used local aquatic plants. Many plants were eaten raw or used as ingredients. Cattails provided food, medicine, and other uses. Arrowhead tubers and water lily leaves were also consumed or used. While most plants were safe to use, water hemlock was very poisonous. Moose were often spotted near aquatic plants and were hunted along shorelines. First Nations peoples made use of many parts of the moose.

It is divided into four sections: 1) The history of oyster decline due to overharvesting, disease, and dredging, reducing the population to 1% of its original size. 2) The anatomy and environmental needs of oysters. 3) How oysters support the ecosystem by filtering water and providing habitat. 4) Efforts by various organizations to restore oyster populations through constructing artificial reefs, with benefits including jobs, supporting industry, and stabilizing shorelines, though challenges like funding and threats remain.
NREP Ohop Tree Planting Pre-trip - Elementary
The Ohop Valley Restoration project aims to restore Ohop Creek, the 2nd most important salmon-producing tributary of the Nisqually River in Washington. A century ago, the creek was drained and diverted into a ditch to make way for dairy farming. The restoration project involves re-meandering the stream back to its original path, removing old buildings and invasive plants, and replanting native vegetation along the floodplain to reestablish a healthy riparian zone and provide habitat for salmon and other wildlife. Replanting trees is an important part of the project, as trees help prevent erosion, provide shade to keep water temperatures low, supply food and habitat, and mimic the functions of natural log
Chehalis Freshwater Mussels 2014
This document provides information about freshwater mussels in the Chehalis River Basin. It discusses that the Chehalis Basin is home to several species of native freshwater mussels, including the Western Pearlshell and Western Ridged Mussel. Mussels play an important ecological role by filtering water to improve quality. They are also an indicator of habitat health but many species are endangered or extinct across North America due to factors like dams, pollution, and habitat loss. Conservation efforts aim to map and monitor mussel populations to inform protection strategies. The document warns about invasive mussel species not currently found in Washington that could harm local ecosystems.

1) Shark attacks are increasing each year due to overfishing, global warming, and tourism like cage diving that force sharks closer to shore in search of food. As their habitats and food sources decline from human activity, interactions with humans rise.
2) Overfishing has led to a 90% decline in global shark populations and 99% decline along the US east coast. With fewer fish to prey on, sharks come closer to beaches. Global warming is also pushing sharks to warmer waters frequented by tourists.
3) Cage diving conditions sharks to associate humans with food, as tourists feed them. This encourages sharks to swim near beaches, increasing risk of attacks. Sharks no longer need to hunt when
The Pacific Salmon and Steelhead Coloring Book
Five kinds of salmon live in rivers along the Pacific Coast: the chinook (or king salmon), the coho (or silver salmon), the sockeye, pink (or humback) and chum (or dog) salmon. This coloring book talks about these fish and the steelhead (which is a type of rainbow trout) and is designed for anyone interested in learning about fish.
NSEA FINAL SalmonInTheNearshore brochure
The nearshore provides critical habitat for salmon and other marine species. It includes tidally influenced streams and rivers, shoreline bluffs, beaches, and shallow waters. In the nearshore, eelgrass beds provide refuge and food for young salmon, and forage fish lay their eggs on beaches and aquatic vegetation. Native riparian plants along the shoreline provide habitat and shade to protect forage fish eggs. The nearshore is where salmon undergo smoltification as they adapt between fresh and saltwater, relying on the rich food web and refuge from predators.
Ava and sara logan walrus power point
The document provides information about walruses, including their adaptations, environment, and nutritional relationships. It notes that walruses have webbed feet and tusks to help them swim and defend themselves, and blubber to survive in cold climates. They live in parts of the Atlantic, Pacific, Antarctica and Siberia, and eat algae, krill and fish, while being preyed on by polar bears, killer whales and humans. Their populations are endangered due to climate change and habitat loss.
Coral reefs
Coral reefs are complex ecosystems made up of many organisms living together. They form structures like barrier reefs that protect coastlines from waves and storms, promoting marine biodiversity. Coral reefs are important habitats for fish and other sea life and provide food and resources that support human communities. They also play a role in regulating carbon levels and ocean water quality. The Great Barrier Reef is the world's largest coral reef system, spanning over 2,600 miles off the coast of Australia.

Channel catfish can grow up to 4 feet long and weigh over 50 pounds. They live in freshwater environments like streams, rivers, ponds and lakes where they can find food. Channel catfish have seven fins, a scaleless body, and tastebuds all over their body which allow them to be bottom feeders. They were named the state fish of Nebraska in 1997.
lionfish1
The lionfish is an invasive species native to the Indo-Pacific that was unintentionally introduced to the Caribbean Sea in the 1980s. It reproduces rapidly, matures quickly, and lacks natural predators in the Caribbean, allowing it to overpopulate reefs and consume many small reef fish. Lionfish have few natural controls and can reduce populations of native species by up to 95%, posing a major threat to Caribbean ecosystems. Management strategies aim to develop fisheries to control lionfish numbers and limit their negative ecological impacts through targeted removals.

Types Of Carp
Freshwater carp are a widely dispersed family of fish distinguished by their remarkable size and fierce fighting nature. They provide both exciting table fare and a tough catch, making them popular targets for anglers worldwide. With over 30 recognized species, carp offer a broad choice for anglers depending on their interests and location. Here is a comprehensive guide for anglers on 15 popular carp species:
1. Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio)
The common carp is one of the most well-known and widespread species. Recognizable by its large size, robust body, and barbels around the mouth, it can grow over 60 pounds. They are hardy and adaptable, thriving in a variety of freshwater habitats.
2. Mirror Carp (Cyprinus carpio var. specularis)
Mirror carp are a variety of common carp with distinctive, irregular scales that resemble mirrors. They share similar habitats and behaviors with common carp but are noted for their unique appearance.
3. Leather Carp (Cyprinus carpio var. nudus)
Leather carp are another variant of common carp, characterized by their nearly scale-less, smooth skin. They tend to be slightly less hardy but offer a unique challenge due to their rarity.
4. Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)
Native to East Asia, grass carp are herbivorous and known for their elongated bodies. They can grow over 100 pounds and are often used in aquatic vegetation control. Their diet and size make them a unique target for anglers.
5. Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix)
Silver carp are known for their jumping ability, often leaping out of the water when startled. They are filter feeders and can be challenging to catch using traditional angling methods. They are popular in some regions for their distinctive fight.
6. Bighead Carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis)
Bighead carp have a large head and a protruding lower jaw. They feed primarily on plankton, which makes them difficult to catch on a line. They can grow very large, often exceeding 80 pounds, and provide a thrilling catch.
7. Crucian Carp (Carassius carassius)
Crucian carp are smaller, typically weighing less than 4 pounds, but are known for their tenacity. They are golden in color and often found in ponds and slow-moving rivers across Europe and Asia.
8. Koi Carp (Cyprinus carpio haematopterus)
Originally bred in Japan for their ornamental value, koi carp come in a variety of colors and patterns. They are primarily found in garden ponds but can also be a challenging catch in the wild.
9. Tench (Tinca tinca)
Often considered a member of the carp family, tench have olive-green bodies and a thick, slimy coat. They are bottom-dwellers and provide a good fight, making them a popular target for anglers.
10. Black Carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus)

Native to East Asia, grass carp are herbivorous and known for their elongated bodies. They can grow over 100 pounds and are often used in aquatic vegetation control. Their diet and size make them a unique target for anglers.
5. Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix)
Silver carp are known for their jumping ability, often leaping out of the water when startled. They are filter feeders and can be challenging to catch using traditional angling methods. They are popular in some regions for their distinctive fight.
6. Bighead Carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis)
Bighead carp have a large head and a protruding lower jaw. They feed primarily on plankton, which makes them difficult to catch on a line. They can grow very large, often exceeding 80 pounds, and provide a thrilling catch.
7. Crucian Carp (Carassius carassius)
Crucian carp are smaller, typically weighing less than 4 pounds, but are known for their tenacity. They are golden in color and often found in ponds and slow-moving rivers across Europe and Asia.
8. Koi Carp (Cyprinus carpio haematopterus)
Originally bred in Japan for their ornamental value, koi carp come in a variety of colors and patterns. They are primarily found in garden ponds but can also be a challenging catch in the wild.
9. Tench (Tinca tinca)
Often considered a member of the carp family, tench have olive-green bodies and a thick, slimy coat. They are bottom-dwellers and provide a good fight, making them a popular target for anglers.
10. Black Carp (Mylopharyngodon piceus)
Native to East Asia, black carp are molluscivorous, feeding on snails and mollusks. They can reach substantial sizes, over 100 pounds, and are known for their strength and vigor when hooked.
11. Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella)

Pacific ocean[1]
The Pacific Ocean is the largest ocean, located in western Europe. It occupies 1/3 of the Earth's surface. Some important animals in the Pacific Ocean include dolphins, sharks, swordfish, and grey whales. The grey whale is a 13 meter mammal that eats small fish. Sharks have fins and sharp teeth and eat fish and sometimes humans. Swordfish are large predatory fish with long bills. Dolphins live in water and have fins, eating small fish and seaweed.

1) Aquatic ecosystems include freshwater ecosystems like lakes, ponds, wetlands and rivers as well as marine ecosystems like estuaries, coral reefs, and oceans.
2) Freshwater ecosystems support a variety of organisms including plankton, nekton, benthos and decomposers and are threatened by pollution, dams, and excess nutrients causing eutrophication.
3) Marine ecosystems include coastal wetlands, estuaries, salt marshes, mangrove swamps, coral reefs, and oceans, which support diverse life but are threatened by pollution, overfishing, and climate change impacts like coral bleaching.
Habitats and foodchains
An ecosystem refers to all the plants and animals that live together in an environment and interact. Different ecosystems can exist close together and some animals belong to multiple ecosystems. All living things are adapted to their environment and habitats in ways that help them survive, such as how seals are adapted to aquatic life. Food chains show what organisms eat other organisms or plants, and start with producers like plants. When one part of a food chain is disrupted, it can negatively impact other parts of the ecosystem. Human activities like habitat destruction and pollution are common reasons why some animal populations become endangered or extinct.
Seahorse
This document discusses the husbandry and care of seahorses, specifically dwarf seahorses. It provides information on seahorse anatomy, species, tank setup, feeding, breeding, and conservation. Dwarf seahorses, like Hippocampus zosterae, require a small tank of 5 gallons or less stocked with live baby brine shrimp and rotifers as their primary food source. Proper husbandry is needed to avoid threats like stinging hydroids and ensure the survival of these interesting small seahorses.
Fish Feeding Technique Notes
This document discusses different fish feeding techniques and mouth positions. It identifies 5 main feeding techniques: 1) filter feeders who suck in water and food through gill rakers, 2) scavengers who eat anything organic, 3) ambush feeders who hide and grab prey as it swims by, 4) gulp and suck feeders who create a current to suck in prey, and 5) surface feeders who feed at the water's surface. It also describes different mouth positions including terminal, sub-terminal, inferior, and superior openings related to these feeding techniques. Finally, it briefly covers some common fish diseases.

This document provides information about red-eared slider turtles, including their habitats, behaviors, descriptions, diets, environments, and hibernation patterns. It discusses the author's personal experience owning a red-eared slider turtle named Scuba Steve since childhood. Images and details are provided about the species, such as their aquatic lifestyle but tendency to bask, omnivorous diet, and brumation in winter months by staying at the bottom of bodies of water.
Care taking
California sea lions are highly social animals that form large groups on land and smaller groups in water. They feed primarily on squids, octopuses, fish and other sea creatures, eating 5-8% of their body weight daily. Their diet and health is important to monitor because humans sometimes consume the same foods and can be impacted by biotoxins. Ensuring proper habitat with access to land, shade and water is important for their welfare.
Parantal care in fishes
Parental care in fishes involves various behaviors to protect eggs and offspring. Many fish build elaborate nests, such as sunfish creating shallow basin nests. Others guard eggs in their mouths or coil around them. Parental care increases survival chances for offspring and helps continue species. Behaviors seen include nest building, guarding eggs, and caring for hatchlings. Parental care is an important evolutionary development for fish reproduction.
