| | Global bathymetry & topography are two of the most extensively used types of scientific data for a wide variety of scientific, practical, & artistic applications. Global relief forms a framework for visualization of other types of data & information, and provides boundary conditions for environmental modelling. |  | | | | Map from the IOC Marine Programme | | | | |

| NEWSLETTER JULY 2005
| |
| Dear UN Atlas member,
It has been six months since the tsunami hit the coasts of the Indian Ocean. While many post-tsunami rehabilitation efforts have taken root, more are still needed. The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) plays a key role. Rebuilding continues, as you can read below with a recent donation to the IMO's Tsunami Maritime Relief Fund.
The Large Marine Ecosystem (LME) topic keeps expanding. Recent additions include information on the Benguela Current LME Programme which focuses on Angola, Namibia and South Africa, as well as a new entry on the West Bering Sea LME between Russia and the United States of America.
Find out about "Ethics in Marine Mammal Research" during a workshop next December just before the Society for Marine Mammalogy conference in San Diego, USA.
If this newsletter may interest someone you know, please forward it. Contribute to and participate in the growing Atlas community by becoming an active Member of the UN Atlas today.
Thank you,
