More Fish on the Move

Re: More Fish on the Move
Here is a recent story, about the steady, but heavy decline of eel populations:

[link to news.bbc.co.uk]
Page last updated at 16:16 GMT, Wednesday, 3 March 2010

Very little is known about the eel, and, as Andrew says: "The more we find out, the less we know."
Severn Bore (Image: Sustainable Eel Group)
The Severn Bore is one of the best examples of its kind in the world

It has never been seen breeding, although it is believed it mates in the Sargasso Sea, just north of Bermuda. No adult eel, however, has ever been found in the area.

This sea supports both the European and American eel - but nobody knows how each species ends up making its respective long journey across the oceans, drifting on the fast-moving currents.

For the European eel to get here takes about two years, and until recently, baby, or glass eels, would teem up the rivers of the UK.

"The scale of their abundance was overwhelming," says Mr Kerr.

"Entire communities would live on them; indeed at this point on the Severn they were even used to fertilise the fields."

But, just as the life of the eel is as opaque as the depths of the oceans in which they make their mammoth journeys, so is the rapid decline in numbers that fishermen and conservationists have reported on rivers and waterways and lakes across Europe.

'Dramatic decline'

"We're talking about relative decline here," says Mr Kerr.

"This is not a tiger, with only a thousand left. There will still be millions of glass eels in the Severn this year.

"But there is no doubt that the scale of decline has been dramatic - a 70% reduction overall."

A European recovery plan was put in place in 2009 by the European Commission.

It required all countries to create "eel plans" for their river basin districts which would allow recovery and its sustainable use for food, and ensure that enough adult eels would make the journey back to their spawning grounds.

It also was supposed to ensure that all EU countries reserved a certain number of eels for conservation and restocking work across the 27-nation bloc.

I was attacked by birds walking into Del Taco yesterday (LA,CA). Just as I reached the door, two birds flew down and hit my arm.

Re: More Fish on the Move
What's with all the fish threads?




I think it's pretty easy to figure out. The fish are attempting to go where the ocean will soon rise and land will be displaced.

Get your rubbers folks.

Re: More Fish on the Move
Still think those fish are dieing from lack of oxygen.

This area of water had been kept clear because of the glacier, said Steve Rintoul, a leading climate expert. With part of the glacier gone, the area could fill with sea ice, which would disrupt the sinking ability of the dense and cold water.

This sinking water is what spills into ocean basins and feeds the global ocean currents with oxygen, Rintoul explained.

As there are only a few areas in the world where this occurs, a slowing of the process would mean less oxygen supplied into the deep currents that feed the oceans.

"There may be regions of the world's oceans that lose oxygen, and then of course most of the life there will die," said Mario Hoppema, chemical oceanographer at the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research in Germany.

Re: More Fish on the Move
check out the chart at the link full circle....x

An army of Asian carp is itching to invade new waters again, barely taking a breather after its three-decade conquest of the Mississippi River Basin. The ambitious foreign fish are still multiplying even as they deplete native food supplies, and now they're eyeing their biggest prize yet: the Great Lakes, Earth's largest freshwater ecosystem.

Re: More Fish on the Move
also don't forget our contribution to the cause... : (


The tiny particles of salt that blanket the roads during harsh winter storms bring temporary relief to drivers racing down icy roads, but wreak havoc on vulnerable ecosystems a short drive away.

In some cases, road salt is destroying them altogether.

An extensive five-year study published this week by researchers at the University of Toronto Scarborough found that Frenchman’s Bay, a coastal inland bay in Pickering considered by many to be the “jewel” of the city’s waterfront, is a stew of harsh contaminants with levels far exceeding provincial water standards.

Great find OP! I have added this article to my thread "Strange Migrations (Land, Air, Sea)" found here: Thread: Strange Migrations (Land, Air, Sea)
