blogfish: The jellyfish are coming

http://blogfishx.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-jellyfish-are-coming.html

Fish, oceans, conservation. Friday, August 01, 2014. The jellyfish are coming. Kiss your salmon goodbye. Jellyfish are now 86% of the life in Puget Sound. A sign of things gone badly wrong. Nutrient soup from your poop, Noctiluca blooms (red-orange streaks in the water) and the fish start disappearing. Note: proper scientific caution dictates weaselly caution words like perhaps and maybe should be in this post, so consider them to be here. See p 27 of link for the 86% finding).

blogfish: Puget Sound in trouble?

http://blogfishx.blogspot.com/2014/08/puget-sound-in-trouble.html

Fish, oceans, conservation. Friday, August 01, 2014. Puget Sound in trouble? I just saw a very scary presentation. Scary, that is, for oceanography wonks. It looks like Puget Sound is changing in ways that people won't like. Fewer fish, lower oxygen, more jellyfish. Thanks to nutrients from sewage treatment plants and some surprising food web changes. You'll know you're seeing it happen if the waters light up, bioluminescence from Noctiluca blooms, as in the funky YouTube video. Posted by Mark Powell.

blogfish: July 2014

http://blogfishx.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

Fish, oceans, conservation. Friday, July 18, 2014. Ocean fertilization experiment reviewed. Remember the rogue scientists who sprinkled iron in the Pacific Ocean off Canada? Andy Revkin reviews the evidence and comments on the significance of the results. The iron made a plankton bloom, but the experiment was too small to be significant beyond that. No big impact on CO2 or salmon. By the way, I'm reading an interesting new book on rogue ocean scientists, it's a fascinating subject. More later. Swim Aroun...

blogfish: Buy shrimp right off the boat in Louisiana

http://blogfishx.blogspot.com/2011/09/buy-shrimp-right-off-boat-in-louisiana.html

Fish, oceans, conservation. Friday, September 02, 2011. Buy shrimp right off the boat in Louisiana. New way to buy shrimp, call it a "fisherman's market" like the farmer's markets that are so popular. The Port of Delcambre (Louisiana) has a new direct sale website. That lets you check what local fishermen are catching and make phone orders that you can pick up at the dock. Fresh seafood. Here's shrimper Jimmie Dupre to tell you a little bit about buying shrimp direct, and a few other things as well.

Fish, oceans, conservation. Thursday, March 22, 2012. Fish swims up the butt of a sea cucumber. Talk about getting your strange on. Adult pearlfish live in a place where it's hard to hide. So these vulnerable fish hide where they can- up the butt of a handy sea cucumber. Don't believe me? Watch the video. Now you tell me there's a stranger fish in the sea. Posted by Mark Powell.

blogfish: Premium wild salmon--raised in a fish farm?

http://blogfishx.blogspot.com/2007/05/premium-wild-salmon-raised-in-fish-farm.html

Fish, oceans, conservation. Sunday, May 13, 2007. Premium wild salmon- raised in a fish farm? Do you want to know if you're getting a salmon that was raised in a farm for a year when you buy wild salmon? Blogfish is likely to be the only place you can find out. Do you care if your wild salmon dinner was spawned in a bucket, hatched in a tray and raised for a year in a concrete pond and fed salmon chow? Would you even call that a wild salmon?

blogfish: September 2014

http://blogfishx.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html

Fish, oceans, conservation. Monday, September 08, 2014. James Nestor's fantastic new book "Deep" reviewed. James Nestor’s new book “Deep” is a treat. I enjoyed reading it from beginning to end, and although I wanted to rush through, I forced myself to put it down because I wanted to think about what I was reading. I recommend it highly to anyone interested in the ocean or human performance. Posted by Mark Powell. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Pacific Northwest, United States. Swim Aroun...
