A review of the use of enzyme induction in aquatic organisms to detect water pollution. Part of an MSc Research thesis.

A collaborative website providing easy access to freshwater information. The main aim of FreshwaterLife is to bring together information on freshwater and the organisms that live in freshwater habitats. By giving easy access to information, FreshwaterLife will educate and inform, and promote the importance of the world's freshwaters.

Reef Check. The world's largest international coral reef monitoring program involving recreational divers and experienced marine scientists.

Reef Systems is a company situated in Tonsberg, Norway. The company was established during 2002 to deliver products which can improve the growth conditions for fish, shellfish and other forms of nature on the seabed and in freshwater. Hence, we deliver products which can enhance aquatic biodiversity. We also deliver products which hinder erosion and protect undersea pipes and cables. Together with national and international organizations, we aim at providing leading technical knowledge about the involved subjects.

The Coral Reefs of The Sea section offers information about the sea reef formations, as well different zones you will encounter in the sea. Additionally you can also take a look at digital maps from around the world, like the Great Barrier Reef. You'll discover great data on countries around the world, but also find hundreds of Coral Reef Pictures, taken from the NASA and JSC missions over the sea. Planning a trip it's a good place to begin.

The ZMT's activities include a continuing international research interest in tropical marine ecosystems, their resources and their vulnerability to environmental and climatic changes. They address the scientific issues related to the management of tropical coastal marine ecosystems and their resources and contribute to building global partnerships for research, education and training in the field. Through these activities, which are fully integrated into the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission's (IOC) Program TEMA (Training Education and Mutual Assistance), the ZMT continues to contribute to the goals set by the Agenda 21 of the United Nations Convention on Environment and Development (UNCED).

This "Research Unit" aims to quantify the role of some of the most important low- and high-latitude ocean gateways in changing the global thermohaline circulation (THC), climate, and the evolution of marine organisms. The gateway apertures, in turn, are controlled by (slow acting) local geodynamics and (fast acting) glacio-eustatic sea-level change.

The major goal of The Rutgers University Marine Field Station (RUMFS), and the parent institution, the Rutgers University Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences (IMCS), is to create a corridor for research, from the upper reaches of the Mullica River drainage basin, down through the Great Bay estuary, to the inner continental shelf, where a Long-Term Ecosystem Observatory (LEO-15) at 15 m depth has been established.
