pointing to true north). The leader of the mission which was Flight 19 got lost. Weeks went by long searches failed to show any evidence. While a reason is that the bombers flew into the ocean the Reason why there was no evidence was because of the Gulf Stream. “The Gulf stream a warm ocean current flowing from the Gulf of Mexico around Florida straits northeastward toward Europe, is extremely swift and turbulent. It can quickly erase evidence.” (www.History.com/topics/bermuda-triangle ) There are

are many different species, originating from many different corners of the Earth. The ocean biome in the Biosphere 2 was constructed using raw seawater off the coast of Southern California, which contained many different unknown species of algae. During the construction of the biome, other known species of algae from various marine environments, Gulf of Mexico and Hawaii, were also introduced into the ocean. Research is continuing to be conducted on all various algae species in the Biosphere 2

Hurricanes occur most often in these areas because for example, along the East Coast, the Gulf Stream provides a source of warm waters which helps maintain the hurricane. However in the West Coast, ocean-surface temperatures rarely rise above 70s F, even during the middle of the summer. To avoid getting hit by a hurricane in my area, I would recommend moving to Buffalo, N.Y. Flooding is a great

Indies are remarkable. Location : The triangular continent extends from north of 830 North Latitude to the south of 80 North Latitude and from east of 520 West Longitude to the west of 1700 West Longitude. This continent is surrounded by the Arctic Ocean in the north, South America in

The ocean is one of our most precious natural resources. Every living thing depends on our ocean. The ocean hold 97% of the earth water, as they produce oxygen and absorb carbon. The ocean is a source of food and a natural living habitat for all sea creatures. Over the years as we move closer, the surface of our oceans is beginning to stew up with millions to tons of marine debris, as it has a huge impact on our ecosystem. The oceans are becoming vital for our life and breath and as we are abusing

believed that the United States should be a strong country by military strength. He believed that that we had to a power in the world and a force in the world. Roosevelt wanted a two ocean navy. He wanted a navy that could come and go to the Pacific or the Atlantic Ocean. With the idea of wanting power in the both oceans he began plans for the construction of the Panama Canal. This is where the essence of the Gunboat Diplomacy comes in. Gunboat Diplomacy involves intimidation by threat or use of military

Introduction The Pacific Bluefin Tuna is an incredibly valued specie who has been doomed for decades. Although the IUCN has listed this specie as vulnerable, they are far becoming more endangered to the point of extinction. Their population remains at 4% of what they were before commercial fishers began capturing them by the thousands (The IUCN Red List, 2014). The Pacific Bluefin Tuna is one of the largest and fastest fishes in the ocean. Their are three distinctions of the Bluefin Tuna; the Southern

flat state with few mountains. Many states have hills but very few have rough land. The next difference is the United States is surrounded by the ocean. However, the Atlantic ocean, Pacific ocean, and the gulf of Mexico. While East Asia is surrounded by the Pacific, they also are surrounded by the Indian ocean. The U.S is not surrounded by the Indian ocean nor is surrounded by seas. East Asia is also surrounded by East China sea, South China sea, Sea of

patterns there is no denying this is not natural. The National Hurricane Center describes a hurricane as “a tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 74 mph (64 knots) or higher. In the western North Pacific, hurricanes are called typhoons; similar storms in the Indian Ocean and South Pacific Ocean are called cyclones”. Hurricanes are categorized by wind intensity on the Saffir-Simson Hurricane Wind Scale, the categories are one through four, with three and four being the most severe with winds reaching
