negatively effect the intertidal zone. The conservation efforts are in place; many states have regulations that protect certain species in the intertidal zone and some states have restrictions for removing organisms from tide pools. Some states you must have a valid fishing license to remove live mollusks from the intertidal zone ("Tide Pools Human Impact & Conservation”). In the epipelagic zone the human impacts that negatively affect this zone is overfishing and pollution. Overfishing removes an
Matthew Flinders and Captain James Cook are the reason we know the great barrier reef exists. Captain James Cook was the first person to record the existence of a reef as he sailed up the eastern coast. He first noticed shoals in the area of the Great Keppel Island. Matthew Flinders was an English navigator and cartographer who was the first to explore the entire Australian coastline and named the Extensive Barrier Reef, today known as The Great Barrier Reef. The name is unique because it describes
b. The graph from Table 1 is showing an exponential type of graph because due to the quantity in the population increasing at a fixed percentage per unit for time at 2% per year. Exponential graphs start off slowly however; it leads to the quantity to double each time. One can see that in the exponential growth graph the rate levels off although, the population continues to grow. c. One possible cause of the exponential growth trend graphed in part a. could be the increase in both technology and
Public goods A public good is a good that individuals can use without reducing its availability to others and that is openly available to everyone. An example are the dikes in the Netherlands. Once a dike has been created, no one can be excluded from enjoying its benefits as it protects everyone and no one can reduce its availability to others. Market failure Is when the allocation of goods and services is suboptimal which means that the quantity provided does not meet the quantity that is in demand
Trawling is commercial fishing method which involves large fish nets pulled through sea water by one or more boats. Trawl is a funnel shaped gigantic net and boat which drags the net is called Trawler. Types of Trawling Mainly there are two types of trawling which are Pelagic Trawling or Mid water trawling, where the trawl is dragged though surface or mid water of sea. Demersal Trawling, where the trawl is dragged close to sea bed. Bottom Trawling or Bethnic Trawling, where the trawl is dragged
