And it's destroying that precious benthic community on the bottom, things like sponges and corals, that critical habitat for other animals.

It's a colonial animal.

The central topics of this cruise will be (a) the acquisition and interpretation of acoustic reflectivity data (utilization of the side scan sonar function of modern swath sounding systems) (b) seafloor sampling for calibration and ground truthing of digital acoustic data and (c) the investigation of benthic communities (taxonomy, composition of assemblages, biodiversity).

437. Food to sustain biological communities on deep ocean floor is scarce.

61 Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) Bulletin, No. 7, December 1997.

Tropical forests are home to nearly half of all plant and animal species on Earth.

These birds make a living by diving into the water.

And when they hollow out, then they become habitats for organisms.

25. Forests, especially tropical forests, harbour more biodiversity than any other type of biome.

Our desks, our computers, our pencils, our buildings all harbor resident microbial landscapes.

Given that microbes travel around with people, you might expect to see rooms that are close together have really similar biomes.

More than 90 percent, 99 percent, of the living space on our planet is ocean.

even for amphibians.

You could give an entire talk about the creatures that live in the mid water.

Evaluates administrative arrangements for the secretariat of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals and its co located agreement secretariats.

In the last 30 years, thanks to explorations in remote parts of the world and advances in technology, biologists have, for example, added a full one third of the known frog and other amphibian species, to bring the current total to 5,400, and more continue to pour in.

We would lay on top of that the map of the ecological communities.

Will they be entitled to insist on living in community?

In addition, a new Agreement on the Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels was adopted under the auspices of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals Convention in June 2001.

And living amongst the tangle of tube worms is an entire community of animals shrimp, fish, lobsters, crab, clams and swarms of arthropods that are playing that dangerous game between over here is scalding hot and freezing cold.

80 percent of all amphibians are threatened and in come decline.

She suspected the difference had to do with the mice's gut microbiomes the community of bacteria, viruses and fungi that normally live within the gastrointestinal tract.

According to Kuwait, Iraq created large minefields, planted over a million mines around the country, and left many remnants of war that were often camouflaged and booby trapped.

We appreciate the role of the Authority in the conservation of biodiversity in the Area, especially the elaboration of the rules, regulations and procedures to ensure the effective protection of the marine environment, the protection and conservation of the natural resources of the Area and the prevention of damage to its flora and fauna from harmful effects that may arise from activities in the Area.

Our lives, and those of all other creatures on this planet, are both part of and dependent on biodiversity. Simply put, biodiversity is the web of life, including all organisms found in every habitat, from the fish of the deep oceans to the birds of the tropical rainforests and everything in between.

The Commission agreed to recommend to their Governments that every effort be made to ensure a level of 40,000 metric tonnes of Illex spawning stock biomass at the end of the 1998 season.

The rehabilitation of fisheries resources consists of the installation of artificial reefs breeding and release of shrimp to rehabilitate stocks implementation of a programme to reduce the number of industrial trawlers as from 1993 rehabilitation of coral reefs research and monitoring of shrimp stocks and research and monitoring of demersal fish stocks.

They include the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer and its Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora and the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals under which the recent Agreement on the Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels was negotiated.

So two populations of tunas that is, we have a Gulf population, one that we can tag they go to the Gulf of Mexico, I showed you that and a second population.

The rooms in this building are like islands in an archipelago, and what that means is that mechanical engineers are like eco engineers, and they have the ability to structure biomes in this building the way that they want to.

In it, you'll see that it's a habitat for a lot of different animals.

Well then, where are they?

And there were traps.

In October 2004, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service also decided to designate 6,409 acres of land a critical habitat for three bat species.62

The paleontologists themselves looked a bit more closely at the accompanying microfauna that lived in the same time and place as the hominids.

Yet life in the sea may depend on these tiny creatures.

It occurred to us a number of years ago that caves have many properties that people have used and other organisms have used as habitat in the past.

Landscape ecology concerns itself with how the stream and the meadow and the forest and the cliffs make habitats for plants and animals.

And there's a whole new hydrothermal vent community that has been formed.

Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice resolutions

And this kind of life and death of hydrothermal vent communities is going on every 30 or 40 years all along the ridge.
