Kelp

The Decline of Californian Giant Kelp Forests Kelp forests are seen as the ultimate ecological engineer in coastal areas. They exist in marine environments spanning in southern California, Aleutian Islands, and the western north Atlantic. Light, latitude, and water temperature and nutrients all play a role in facilitating the growth of kelp forests all around the world, (Bolton). Kelp specifically dominates the shallow rocky coasts of the world‘s cold water marine habitats. Although they look as

The white abalone is an invertebrate in the phylum Mollusca and the class Gastropoda. It is a member of the family Haliotidae and its scientific name is Haliotis sorenseni ("White Abalone - Haliotis sorenseni"). Abalone are large sea snails prized for their beautiful iridescent shells and have been sought out as food and jewelry since pre-colonial times. Though abalone have existed since the Precambrian era, the earliest harvesters of abalone were Native Americans who lived along the intertidal zone

Once the KELP has been implemented for the student, I will collect the student's learning data from various classroom assessments, and review the student's progress. This will allow myself as a teacher to understand whether the student has obtained a stronger understanding of the concepts that they may have been struggling with. From here, I would arrange a friendly meeting with the KELP Learning Plan Manager and Team, the student, and their family. This meeting will corroborate the student's learning

Maintains an Intertidal Kelp Community” by Allison K. Barner, Sally D. Hacker, Bruce A. Menge, and Karina J. Nielsen discusses the effect of competition on the Saccharina Sessilis. The study shows the effect of positive and negative interactions on the community near the shore that the Sea Cabbage Kelp. During the research the scientists created 15centimeter squared sections in the area where this species is the dominant canopy. They then applied one of three options: removal of the kelp, removal of the

the industrial revolution, humans have constantly overexploited the environment, resulting in the gradual loss of biodiversity. Among these struggling organisms are the sea otters, an essential support for trophic levels including the sea urchins, kelp forests, and others. Without otters, dependent marine animals in different trophic levels will be heavily influenced and suffer as well. If precautions are not taken to ensure proper conservation and sustainability, there will be consequences beyond

the mussel population explodes uncontrollably, driving out most other species, while the urchin population annihilates coral reefs. Similarly, sea otters in kelp forests keep sea urchins in check. Kelp roots are merely anchors, and not the vast nutrient gathering networks of land plants. Thus the urchins only need to eat the roots of the kelp, a tiny fraction of the plant's biomass, to remove it from the ecosystem. Domestic cats have taken the role of a keystone species in many environments, including

takes hold, kelp. Kelp Forests are an underwater forest of seaweed known as kelp which grow on rocky sea floors (LA, 1994). They are also referred to as kelp beds. Kelp grows in cool coastal waters where sunlight can penetrate to the sea floor. According to the National Marine Sanctuary a kelp forest is “a host to invertebrates, fish, marine mammals and birds that exist in the kelp forest environs. From the holdfasts to the surface mats of kelp fronds, the array of habitats on the kelp itself may

Phytoplankton and Giant Kelp are two protists found in “Seasonal Seas”. Phytoplankton are the main primary producers found in the ocean. Spring is usually when phytoplankton bloom, which is known as the “spring bloom”. When too many nutrients are available, phytoplankton may grow out of control and form harmful algal blooms. Phytoplankton provide food for copepods, and they in turn are prey to jellyfish. This all contributes to the giant food web in the ocean. Phytoplankton utilize light and nutrients
