How #whale urine benefits #ocean #ecosystem
Team looked at whale urine and ecological benefits it provides, distributing key nutrients over thousands of miles during migrations. “coastal areas often have clear waters, a sign of low nitrogen, and many have coral reef ecosystems,” said Roman. “movement of nitrogen and other nutrients can be important to the growth of phytoplankton, or microscopic algae, and provide food for sharks and other fish and many invertebrates.”

Globigerinoidesella fistulosa is one of the crazier looking #foraminifera we had in the #ocean, it has these digits growing out of it, and it all seems to be related to changes in growth patterns relative to its ancestor.

Amongst the pelicans for breakfast on the north end of Mustang Island on a particularly muggy and warm summer morning.

It was a bit too swishy in the main pool today, so went in the shallower pool.
Depth there is variable - at one edge it's ankle deep but over half is waist to chest deep (if you're 5'4" like me). Lap swimming is possible but was water walking for me.
Water was lovely mild temp but less fun when exposed to the wind afterwards.

If these areas are truly “protected,” why are #IndustrialFleets allowed to plunder them? It’s time to ban supertrawlers from MPAs and hold governments accountable.
