Rainforests of the sea
**Coral Reefs: United for the Future of Tropical and Subtropical Ocean Treasures** Coral reefs, the underwater jewels of the tropical and subtropical oceans, teem with diverse marine species. Often referred to as the "rainforests of the sea," these vibrant ecosystems boast an impressive variety of stony corals, mollusks, crustaceans, and jellyfish. These majestic habitats provide essential services, including shoreline protection and support for fisheries resources. In the shallow waters of atolls and barrier reefs, clusters of coral polyps secrete calcium carbonate exoskeletons, forming intricate colonies that serve as the foundation for these fragile ecosystems. The fore reef and reef crest areas host a myriad of marine creatures, from sponges and sea anemones to elusive underwater species that thrive in these biodiverse habitats. Unfortunately, coral reefs worldwide face alarming declines due to climate change, oceanic acidification, and destructive human activities s...
Continental Drift
An Introduction to Continental Drift: Evidence from Below Continents are constantly in motion, sliding over the Earth's surface as rigid plates that sometimes collide or pull apart. The theory of plate tectonics explains how and why this happens. Ever-changing topological features like mountain ranges, rift valleys, and ocean trenches provide compelling evidence for this theory. The Earth's outer layer, the lithosphere, consists of interlocking rigid plates that ride on top of the softer asthenosphere below. These plates carry continents and ocean floors as...
