Surfing is an ancient art and was first known as "he'e nalu", which translates to wave-sliding. However, surfing wasn't simply a fun sport or a task that these ancient people completed. Instead, it was something that attached them to the sea and they used it to reflect their emotions.
I examine how rising or falling tide can affect the water level of Corte Madera Salt Marsh in this report. The data is from Wednesday (June 19th) and Thursday (June 20th). My hypothesis is that tide and water level have positive relationship. From the result, I learn that the water level and tide have positive relationship. However, when tide changes its direction, the water level is likely to stay or little change.
Tired of ferry line-ups and traffic jams? The B.C. Marine Trails Network Association (BCMTNA) has the solution! Imagine a magnificent, 257-kilometre saltwater route connecting Vancouver’s lower mainland to Victoria. Granted, you will need to rethink the amount of luggage you are toting as you will require a canoe, kayak or small beachable boat to travel along the Salish Sea Marine Trail. This spectacular route, designed specifically for paddlers, will add an impressive water leg to the Great Trail, previously known as the Trans Canada Trail. If all goes according to plan the trail will be complete in time for Canada’s 150 birthday celebration in July 2017. Now that’s a birthday
Ever since Sea World opened it’s gates in 1959 it has been mistreating aquatic sea life and endangering employees. In the next few months there should be a petition emailed to everyone who is subscribed to any wildlife protection groups encouraging everyone to voice their concern. As of today there are a large number of citizens of the United States and several other countries spreading the word of the awful conduct of Sea World and their mistreatment of endangered wildlife.

The purpose of this assignment is to explain the differences surfing has made in my life and explain how it has changed my life for the better. My father got me in the water surfing just a few years ago and I have fallen in love with it ever since. I have been surfing for two years now and everytime I go out for a surf I get to learn a new lesson or a new technique. This helps to keep surfing fresh in my brain by providing something new every time. I will be continuing to surf throughout my life because the sport is timeless. When you look out in the water you will be able to see people as young as five and people as old as eighty. Surfing is timeless because of its ability to not age and keep people involved no matter the age. It is a hobby
Continuous waves pounding against the boat, yet you attempt to remain still.. But now you rise up from your seat, grasping onto surrounding objects to assure stability; all that you smell is the sea salt being carried throughout the air; your skin and hair are covered in a fine layer of sticky salt; you constantly fidget around your overused lifejacket attempting to make it more comfortable; and now you make your way to the white platform at the back of the boat; an assortment of rainbow colors filled the gigantic parasail that blew up off the back of the boat; ropes and latches are pulled out of a discolored bin and strapped around you; you slide into the bulky harness- now you sit… and you wait, and before you know it you hear that small,
I guess I wasn't the only one who had bad luck in the water because my Dilyn's sister Kendyl got knocked over by a large wave. After one wave came another, and then another, and another. Each wave kept knocking her over or sucking her in, in different waves. Instead of helping her, Dilyn, Carly, Sofia, and I could absolutely not stop laughing. Once she finally got herself up out of the waves, her top fell off! That is when we lost it and started laughing even harder than before. Because Kendyl lost her battle with the ocean she decided to walk back to the campsite. Shortly after that we decided to go to. A few hours later it was almost sunset and because I have a major obsession with taking photos of the beach and sunsets I dragged my friends with me to go to a good spot where I can get a good photo of the sunset. Once we finally got to the spot I was blown away. The sunset was beyond amazing. The sun looked big and bright while the sky was an ombré of orange, pink and baby blue. Of course I had to take at least 100 pictures on the camera and 50 more on my phone all from different views and angles. As the sun fell we made our way back to the
The Atlantic Ocean. It is one of the five oceans in the world. It is home to many fish and other creatures. It is one of the five oceans that actually intrigue me. My questions were, How big is the ocean itself, what life lives here, and the trade routes of this ocean.

Today it is the middle of Autumn currently, I have lost count of the days, but I know it is early November. We have not made it to the Pacific Ocean, but it is in our sights and we have stopped for the night in a little shelter we made. The journey was rough, challenging, yet we still managed to beat every obstacle in our path. Many tribes have helped is on our way to the Pacific; one of them stayed with us and has helped us greatly. Her name is Sacagawea and she is from the Shoshone tribe, she translates for us and knows with plants are edible. We have crossed mountain ranges, raging river currents, dangerous Native Americans, and other dangerous animals. The Pacific ocean is beautiful, I hope one day you will see it to, but for now I
There are so many unbelievable charities in the world that do incredible things. To choose just one charity to donate 10 million dollars to is extremely hard, but the charity that I choose is the Oceanic Society. What the Oceanic Society does is to help improve the oceans health by addressing the main problem, which is human behavior. Their mission is conserve marine life and their habitats by connecting people and nature. The Oceanic Society has many projects that they are specifically working to help marine life. They are widely acclaimed for their projects for maine life and their habitats. Some of those projects are the Belize Bottlenose Dolphin Research, California Whale Rescue, and the Drifters Program. Pollution is a huge adversary for the Oceanic Society because they can only do so much to help without us doing our part, and stop polluting the oceans. This is a program that I am a strong advocate for. I am a fanatic about trying to protect our oceans and marine life.
